The Text Formed from an Entirely New Collation of the Old Editions: With Various Readings, Notes, A Life of the Poet, and A History of the Early English Stage. By J. Payne Collier, Esq. FSA. In Eight Volumes. London: Whittaker & Co., 1844. Second edition. Eight octavo volumes (8 5/8 x 5 1/4 inches; 220 x 134 mm). Frontispiece portrait in volume I engraved by H.

Overall a very nice set. "John Payne Collier is chiefly known as a Shakespearean critic and later forger, but his interest began with rather more general early English drama; his early publications included Five Old Plays and A history of English Dramatic Poetry and Annals of the Stage. He also edited the papers of Edward Alleyn, actor and later founder of Dulwich College, for the Shakespeare Society, and was employed by the 6th Duke of Devonshire as Librarian. He represented the Duke at the prolonged sale (1834-6) of the collection of the great bibliophile and book collector Richard Heber, and became a member of the Garrick Club and the Society of Antiquaries under his aegis. In 1842-4 he published a new edition of Shakespeare's works in 8 volumes." (Royal Trust Collection). Ebisch and Schücking, p. 55. Jaggard, p. 525. HBS 69459. $1,250.

Description
159 pp. & one leaf with index & colophon. Small 8vo (180 x 115 mm.), orig. printed pictorial softcover (spine worn), author portrait on lower cover. Guaymas, Mexico: Joaquín Mortiz, August 1970. First and only edition of Carrión’s second book, a collection of six short stories, printed in a numbered edition of 3000 copies. In the 1960s, Carrión (1941-89) was one of Mexico’s emerging literary talents; a number of his short stories had been published in leading journals, and his first play, El Gran Espectáculo, was performed at the Casa de la Cultura de Tlacotalpan, Veracruz, to rave reviews. Following his studies in philosophy and letters at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, he spent time in France and Germany (1964-65), with the aid of scholarships, learning both languages. Dissatisfaction with the Mexican literary world and local hostility toward the gay community drove Carrión to emigrate to Amsterdam in 1970, where he found a progressive and free-spirited milieu. From then on he conscientiously abandoned literature and fully dedicated his life and work to the visual arts, in the form of books, films, social experiments, performances, mail art, etc. This book represents the artist’s final moment as a traditional/conventional author, preceding his conversion to experimental and avant-garde methods of communication. “In 1970, he published [a second] six-story collection, De Alemania, considered a more mature work. Here, he has perfected the interior monologue, which is the primary manner in which his characters disclose themselves. In some stories, the salient characteristic is alienation, but in others, Carrión employs humor as a catalyst. Since such characteristics are not always mutually exclusive, he does achieve a delicate balance between the two.”–Dictionary of Mexican Literature (1992), ed. Eladio Cortés, p. 147. Very good copy, internally fine; spine a little creased, as with most copies. Housed in a cloth clamshell box.
