Hardcover. Etat : Good. William Hogarth (illustrateur). 12mo (152 x 90 mm.), contemporary full calf panelled in blind, raised bands, unlettered. Pp. xiv, 424, [21](index). Fronispiece of Butler plus sixteen plates. The importance of this edition lies in the sixteen plates, five of which are folding, engraved by Hogarth. These small plates were probably engraved about 1720 or 1721, making them some of his earliest work on copper. The designs were not entirely his own invention, but were based on a series of plates by Mynd illustrating a 1710 edition of the work published by Chiswel, Tonson and others. Hinges cracked, but holding, the upper strengthened with paper. Piece missing from fore-edge of title-page, not touching text. One or two of the folding plates creased, or worn or frayed at outer edge, without loss. Plates generally very good. Light toning to text, but text and plates printed on good quality paper. A good, complete copy.

A very good set. ** Referenced by : ESTC T125418. *** " The work is a satirical polemic upon Roundheads, Puritans, Presbyterians and many of the other factions involved in the English Civil War. The work was begun, according to the title page, during the civil war and published in three parts in 1663, 1664 and 1678, with the first edition encompassing all three parts in 1684 . The Mercurius Aulicus (an early newspaper of the time) reported an unauthorised edition of the first part was already in print in early 1662. Published only four years after Charles II had been restored to the throne and the Protectorate of Oliver Cromwell being completely over the poem found an appreciative audience. The satire is not balanced as Butler was fiercely royalist and only the parliamentarian side are singled out for ridicule. Butler also uses the work to parody some of the dreadful poetry of the time. The epic tells the story of Sir Hudibras, a knight errant who is described dramatically and with laudatory praise that is so thickly applied as to be absurd, and the conceited and arrogant person is visible beneath. He is praised for his knowledge of logic despite appearing stupid throughout, but it is his religious fervour which is mainly attacked. Fifty years after the last part was written a new edition was published, with illustrations by William Hogarth, one of the foremost artists of the day. The work remained popular for several centuries as a warning against the zealotry during the Civil War period of English history. " - See Wikipedia.

Cette satire visait principalement le puritanisme, les presbytériens ainsi que certaines autres factions impliquées dans la Première révolution anglaise. Le texte est divisé en trois parties, respectivement écrites en 1663, 1664 et 1678.Publié anonymement à peine quatre ans après le début de la Restauration anglaise et le retour de Charles II d'Angleterre, le poème trouva un large succès auprès du public. Le point de vue est loin d'être neutre, puisque Butler était un fervent royaliste : seul le parti parlementaire est tourné en ridicule. L'auteur profite également de l'occasion pour parodier la poésie courtisane et souvent insipide de l'époque.(sources : Wikipedia) Livres 285638191117.

A superlative set: endpapers and a few preliminaries and final leaves browned at margins but otherwise clean and bright; plates pristine, in deep, rich impressions; boards firmly attached, bindings tight and intact. Grolier (English 100) 32. Bland, pp. 216-19. Wither to Prior 137. Dibdin (Library Companion), p.731 ("the best critical edition, not only of this author, but doubtless of every other of the period"). Brunet I 1427-28. Lowndes 335. Maslen & Lancaster (Bowyer Ledgers) 4485. Paulson (Hogarth's Graphic Works) 73-84. Second Hogarth edition with Grey's notes (with "many emendations upon that of 1744," according to Lowndes). Originally published in three parts, between 1663 and 1678; the first edition with Hogarth's plates appeared in 1726, and the plates were re-engraved for this edition). Influenced by Rabelais and particularly Cervantes' Don Quixote, Butler's mock-heroic poem satirized Roundheads, Puritans, Presbyterians, and other factions of the English Civil War. "Although 'written in the time of the late Wars,' Hudibras was not licensed to be printed until 11 November 1662, two years after re-establishment of the monarchy, when a satire on Puritanism could no longer give offense to the ruling party. On the contrary, the satisfaction which it gave to the King and court had much to do with the great success it achieved." (Grolier English Literature 100, 32). Samuel Pepys bought a copy, and finding no humor in it, sold it the same day. Still, the book enjoyed enormous popularity, and on 5 November 1663, the Second Part appeared. Fourteen years passed before 'Hudibras: the Third and Last Part' (dated 1678) was entered in the Stationers' register on 22 August 1677 and put on sale. Multiple editions (as well as pirated issues) of the individual parts, as well as combined editions, were published by 1680. According to Bland, Hogarth's plates are a "landmark in English illustration and emphasize its divergence from an international style. . . . nothing could be more different from French work of the time . . . Hogarth aims at the common man; where the French illustrator is salacious, he is coarse; where the French illustrator chooses a classical or aristocratic subject, he prefers a contemporary plebeian one; and he is moral where the Frenchman is amoral."
