The edges of the covers show some wear commensurate with age and handling and are slightly creased and rubbed, but the front cover illustration is bright and clean. The back cover is slightly discoloured marked and foxed at the edges (being a cream background). The bottom corner of the page block is slightly creased throughout. Staples rusted as usual. Spine tight. Internally also very good with no inscriptions - just a small black contemporaneous bookseller's label to bottom of first page: 'G. R. Downing, Bookseller, Fore Street, St. Ives, C'. Pages sporadically lightly foxed. The top corner of the first few pages is lightly creased. No tears. Lower corners of most pages also lightly creased. The three pages of colour lithographs, including the centrefold, are bright and clean, and are printed on high grade cartridge paper, printed from the original stones by the Baynard Press, whereas the text of the magazine is on normal thick paper (not the thin postwar economy paper as used in comparative Issue No. 9). ***72 pages (plus PL adverts on inside of front cover, with facsimile of handwritten poem by Keith Douglas on inside of back cover). 246mm x 188mm. ***Contents: Keith Douglas: The Hand, John Anderson, Leukothea; Ronald Bottrall: Elegiacs; Bernard Spencer: Out of Sleep; Anne Ridler: Views of the North Coast; Patrick Evans: Christmas, Great Britain, 1941, Green Grass Growing; James Reeves: A Fairy Tale; Introspection; Lawrence Durrell: In the Garden of the Villa Cleobolus; Kathleen Raine: Absolution; George Barker: Memorial Inscription; Keidyrch Rhys: 48 Hours at Tenby; Rainer Maria Rilke: The Duinese Elegies: The First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth Elegy; Edith Sitwell: From a Canticle of the Rose: Hymn to Venus; George Scurfield: Song - The Bitter Mangoes; Hugh Gordon Porteus: The Oracles, Three Things; G.

No. 11 - the eleventh issue of the original first series of this renowned poetry magazine, edited by Tambimuttu, published in the early post-war period. Of interest to collectors of poetry first editions, and the publications of Poetry London. ***This is the first of the postwar issues of Poetry (London) magazine, published after a three year hiatus from 1944 to 1947. Issue 11 was the third of the series to include specially commissioned lithographs, and the first with expanded content of 72 pages. ***A scarce Poetry London first edition title, very hard to find intact with the original colour lithographs, which are often removed for framing. A very desirable issue. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

"Richard A. Macksey was a celebrated Johns Hopkins University professor whose affiliation with the university spanned six and a half decades. A legendary figure not only in his own fields of critical theory, comparative literature, and film studies but across all the humanities, Macksey possessed enormous intellectual capacity and a deeply insightful human nature. He was a man who read and wrote in six languages, was instrumental in launching a new era in structuralist thought in America, maintained a personal library containing a staggering collection of books and manuscripts, inspired generations of students to follow him to the thorniest heights of the human intellect, and penned or edited dozens of volumes of scholarly works, fiction, poetry, and translation." - Johns Hopkins University This is an oversized or heavy book, which requires additional postage for international delivery outside the US.
