Add to basketFirst edition, limited issue, number 57 of 352 copies, one of 45 bound in quarter goatskin. This is a French/English parallel version of Lawrence's translation of Le Gigantesque (1922), first published in 1924 and one of two translated works he produced. It is also the only example of Lawrence's translations from French. Lawrenc…e took on this translation commission from Cape just after having enlisted in the Tank Corps. He denigrated both the novel itself and his work on it, sending his finished draft to the publishers accompanied by a note: "At last this foul work: complete. Damn Adrien le Corbeau and his rhetoric. The book is a magnificent idea, ruined by jejune bombast. My version is better than his: but dishonest here and there: but my stomach turned. Couldn't help it" (p. xi). This edition comes with a foreword by the editor Jeremy Wilson, the authorized biographer of T. E. Lawrence, and Le Corbeau's dedication to Professor Simon Duplay of the Académie de Médecine. It also contains a number of facsimiles and photographs of the original manuscripts, not present in any other rendition. The French text was typeset from the copy that Le Corbeau gave to Charles Fasquelle, son of his publisher, and the English text was scanned from the copy owned by Jock Chambers, one of Lawrence's close friends from his service. This copy is one of 45 in quarter crushed morocco, with a further 15 in an inlaid binding, 40 bound in quarter morocco, and 250 bound in cloth. Two copies were reserved for the publisher. Octavo. Frontispiece of facsimile letter, 10 plates, illustrations in the text. Original brown quarter morocco, spine gilt-lettered direct, brown cloth covers, marbled endpapers, top edge gilt. Housed in original brown cloth slipcase. A fine copy.
