Connoisseurs of American intellectual culture will take note of the name Grace Norton, recognizing her as the sister of the great 19th century Harvard philologist & professor of Romance languages, Charles Elliot Norton, who as the Cambridge heir of H.W. Longfellow was the translator of the first truly modern, truly accurate English-language Dante (c. 1891) among many other achievements for which he is still honored w/ a prestigious professorship & annual lecture in his name. His sister Grace had many achievements to her credit as well in scholarship & in translation & in her central role in fostering this edition of Montaigne from conception to publication in close collaboration w/ the scandalous scion of the Salem Pickerings, G.B. Ives. * ABOUT THE TRANSLATOR: George Burnham Ives (1856-1930) graduated summa cum laude from Harvard Law School & became the Assistant District Attorney of Essex County (MA). On May 12, 1890, Ives pleaded guilty to charges of embezzlement & forgery, having been caught misappropriating tens of thousands of dollars from various trust funds as well as squandering his wife's inheritance. He was sentenced to 8 1/2 years in Charlestown Prison & was disbarred. While in prison, Ives developed a second career as a translator. After his release, he became a distinguished & prolific literary translator, translating works by Balzac, Daudet, Gautier, Hugo, Maupassant, Mérimée, Sand & Montaigne into English. In later life, Ives produced the first comprehensive bibliography of the works of Oliver Wendell Holmes & worked as an editor at The Atlantic Monthly. * ABOUT THE COMMENTATOR: Grace Norton (b. 1834, d. May 5, 1926) was a noted scholar & lecturer. Born in Cambridge, Massachusetts to Andrew Norton & Catherine Eliot Norton, she was the sister of Charles Eliot Norton. She was educated in Cambridge & read extensively about the literature of France. Norton began studying French authors, chief among them Michel de Montaigne. An expert on Montaigne & the works of other authors, Norton traveled, lectured & wrote about them, her articles appearing in many publications. * SHIPPING: Mnemosyne carefully wraps, labels & packages this splendid set w/ our greatest elegance & care for FREE shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL within the United States & its territories.

Hard Cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Silver title to spine with gold facsimile signature to front on blue boards which are clean and unmarked with no wear but with fading to spine and to a portion of top. Internally very clean, tight and unmarked. 239 pages. Comprises: Foreword by R. Niklaus; Introduction…in English; Les Caves du Vatican - text in French (Texte en Français) - I - Anthime Amand-Dubois, II - Julius de Baraglioul, III - Amédée Fleurissoire, IV - Le Milles-Pattes, V - Lafcadio; Notes; Chronology of the Life of Gide; Chronology of the Works of Gide; Selective bibliography. In Les Caves several serious problems are grafted onto the complicated plot: the freethinker Anthime and his ludicrous conversion, and especially the problem of the gratuitous act and human freedom as exemplified in Protos the chief fool and bandit, and his pupil Lafcadio. Disguised as a priest, Protos, the principal philosopher crook, convinces the Countess de Saint-Prix that the pope has been abducted and is kept confined in the Vatican cellars, while an impostor is on the papal throne. B2C Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
