Book First Edition
Grey Cloth Hardback. Condition: Very Good Plus. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 1958. First edition. 257pp. Gérard de Nerval (1808-1855) was the pen name of the French writer, poet, and translator Gérard Labrunie, a major figure of French romanticism, best known for his novellas and poems, especially the collection Les Filles du Feu, which included the novella Sylvie and the poem "El Desdichado". Through his translations, Nerval played a major role in introducing French readers to the works of German Romantic authors. His later work merged poetry and journalism in a fictional context and influenced Marcel Proust. In this book are three short prose works: Aurelia, sylvie and Emilie, together with many of his poems which are not so well known. There are useful footnotes, together with an introduction which sketches de Nerval's life, relating it to his work. The book is bound in the original grey cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with light bumping to the spine ends. The contents are tight and clean with a small name label on the front fixed endpaper. The unclipped dustwrapper has shelf wear with light soiling and the spine is very slightly faded. The spine ends are lightly bumped.
