Book
Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. This is the second edition in English, "enlarged." Downgraded from "good" to "fair" because preliminary pages before the title page are missing. The first, 1846, edition in English "contained only fourteen tales, whilst the present numbers forty-five, being in fact the only complete collection printed in this country," it says here. "It may be well, also, to state that the translation has been made from the original Danish, not from any of the numerous versions which have appeared in Germany." In fact, Caroline Peachey's 1846 translations have been criticized not only because she seems to have worked largely from the German translations, but also because she "lost Andersen's humor," and added material of her own, consciously altering the tales on occasion to make them "moral" for the British children's market. We presume this 1852 edition also features translations by Peachey, though the translator is not credited. (This can't be the 1852 Chatelain translation, since Chatelain admitted to having "softened" the ending of "The Red Shoes," which appears here in its original, harsh, Procrustean form.) This copy is bound in cream leather (vellum?) with ornate gilt devices to spine and the title stamped in gilt to a red leather spine label. A semi-circular one-inch (3 cm.) chunk of the white leather has been torn away near top of the rear board, through which gap the underlying cardboard is now visible. Additionally, although the boards seem straight, they want to stand open by an inch (4 cm.) There are light penciled check marks next to the titles in the Table of Contents. This book would grade "good," despite the piece of leather missing from rear board, but we downgrade to "fair" since this copy now opens to the title page. That is to say, if there was originally a frontispiece portrait and blank Free Front Endpaper (as there almost certainly were), they're now missing. Includes "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Mermaid," of course, along with "The Emperor's New Clothes," "The Red Shoes," and "The Little Match Girl," and many others which most modern readers will likely find less familiar. The 40-page introductory biographical "Memoir" of Andersen is signed "C.P." -- almost certainly for Caroline Peachey. 535 pp. Here reduced from $350.
