Sobre este artículo
Emerson, Ralph Waldo. English Traits. First Edition. Boston: Phillips Sampson, 1856. 8vo (4 5/8 x 7 1/2 in.). Original full brown cloth, covers and spine decoratively bordered in blind, spine gilt lettered. In custom green cloth covered slipcase and wrapper. First Edition, First Printing, with all correct points: '(1)' on half- title, 'Stereotyped at the Boston Stereotype Foundry' on title verso, battered type on page 230. During a trip to England, in 1847, Emerson lectured in the industrial cities, which yielded material for his popular book English Traits (including a chapter on a visit to Stonehenge with Thomas Carlyle) and afforded him renewed contact with Europe's intellectual elite (among them, Dickens, Tennyson, and de Tocqueville). Jacob Chester Chamberlain copy (historian of First Edition of American authors). Bookplates of previous owners: Emerson Chamberlin (bookplate to front free endpaper), Jacob Chester Chamberlain (bookplate to front pastedown), and Carolyn Wells (bookplate to front free endpaper). Some foxing, minor toning. Still in very good condition.
