Paperbound. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. Pocket Book, [16cm/6.25in], paperbound with pictorial covers, pp. 304. Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs. . In point of beauty of style and literary quality a first place must be given to Mr. Hewlett's "Little Novels of Italy," a collection of short stories of Renaissance life, manners, and morals in Italy. That Mr. Hewlett has made not only a careful but a very intelligent study of this fascinating and perplexing period, so full of psychological contradictions, was shown in his "Earthwork out of Tuscany.". . . . it was a life in which morals were for the time entirely detached from intelligence and the mind absolutely divorced from the conscience. In these stories Mr. Hewlett-makes us realize in the imagination this strange, abnormal type of character, this awful indifference to the laws of life combined with the highest skill in practical affairs, this devotion to religion hand in hand with cruelty and lust, this calm beauty behind which all manner of unnatural crime was hidden. . . . Extract from "In the Field of Fiction" (reviews), Outlook, Dec. 2 1899. . . At the age of twenty-one Christian B. [Bernhard] Tauchinitz founded his firm [Tauchnitz Verlag] and began his famous collection of British authors (Tauchnitz Edition) in 1841, bringing out reprints of British and, later, American authors . in paperbacks, but restricting sales and distribution exclusively to non-English speaking countries. Tauchnitz, and later his son, Christian Carl Bernhard, made frequent trips to England, and established personal connections with Dickens, Disraeli, Carlyle, Thackeray, and many other famous authors of the period. Often these continental reprints came out shortly after the original editions, and at times even simultaneously. By 1937, the year of the firm's centenary, 5290 titles had been issued." - Frank L. Schick, The Paperbound Book in AmericaNew York: 1958. In exceptionally good condition.
