A propos de cet article

Publication: Hartford, Samuel G. Goodrich, 1820 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 177. Condition Report: Poor. The original publisher's paper-covered boards are heavily worn, darkened, and scuffed, with the paper covering the spine almost entirely perished, leaving the underlying binding structure fully exposed. The boards are severely edge-worn, featuring rounded and frayed corners. The binding remains intact and holds the text block together, though it is fragile and unsophisticated. Internally, the pages exhibit moderate to heavy foxing and age-toning throughout, with occasional spotting and staining that is particularly noticeable around the margins and the engraved plates. Despite these significant external flaws, the text remains entirely legible, and the volume notably retains its half-title, engraved title page, frontispiece, and four plates, preserving the core of this early American imprint. Catalogue Note: This is the first edition of the first volume (Volume I only) of Trumbull's poetical works, presented in its original, untrimmed publisher's boards. The volume is notably illustrated with an engraved portrait frontispiece of the author, executed by Peter Maverick and A.B. Durand after a 1793 painting by John Trumbull, alongside an added engraved title page featuring an elaborate vignette, and four additional engraved plates. While complete two-volume sets of this 1820 Hartford edition appear periodically on the open market, early nineteenth-century American imprints surviving in their original, fragile paper boards are increasingly scarce. Most extant copies have been entirely rebound or heavily restored over the last two centuries, making this an authentic, albeit highly worn, survival of early American publishing practices. First published in 1820, this collection brings together the seminal verses of John Trumbull, a leading figure of the "Connecticut Wits". This first volume prominently features his celebrated mock-epic M'Fingal, a satirical masterpiece that vigorously lampooned British loyalists during the American Revolution. Blending sharp wit with classical epic conventions, Trumbull's verse captured the patriotic fervour of the era, securing his lasting place as a foundational voice in early American literature.…
