Description
London: Grant Richards, 1904. First edition. Very Good. Two quarto volumes (11 3/16 x 8 3/4 inches; 285 x 223 mm.). xlii, [1, blank], [1, illustration], 377, [1, blank]; xliv, 350, [2, blank] pp. Photogravure frontispiece in each volume, with tissue guard. Volume I with fifty-five full-page illustrations, fifty-nine grotesque heads, and twenty-six other small drawings or vignettes, all in line. Volume II with forty-three full-page illustrations, thirty-five grotesque heads, and thirty-four other small drawings or vignettes, all in line. Publisher's white buckram pictorially stamped and lettered in gilt on front cover and spine, pictorial end-papers, top edge gilt, others uncut. Corners slightly bumped, some light foxing to preliminary leaves and blank margins, otherwise a very good copy. A favorite author of the French Renaissance, François Rabelais's wild stories of adventuring giants Gargantua and Pantagruel still entertains today. Consisting of five novels, the humorous and satirical narratives allowed for the humanist Rabelais to explore and critique everything from superstition to marriage. This edition of Rabelais was "[Robinson's] largest and most ambitious project to date....The Works of Rabelais which was published in two large volumes containing a hundred full page illustrations and well over a hundred smaller drawings and vignettes... It is the full page drawings that are the most original, with visions of hell that are truly horrific, and a raw power and earthiness in the drawings that is exactly in tune with Rabelais' narrative style. These drawings must have influenced illustrators who followed and many of them bring to mind the work of Mervyn Peake forty years later" (Beare). "The last serious piece of illustration that [Robinson] undertook in this first phase of his book illustrating career" (Lewis). Beare 35A; Lewis, p. 215. Very Good.
