  • Signed
London: Faber and Faber 1930, 1930. First limited edition. Signed by the author. No. 112 of 220 copies printed on English hand-made paper. 8vo. (225x145mm). pp. x, 316. Portrait frontispiece with tissue guard and seven illustrations with tissue guards. Sitwell's study of Alexander Pope. Original yellow buckram, gilt lettered on spine, top edge gilt, others uncut, contained in a rubbed and generally worn bright green slip case. One leaf marked; a very good copy. Edith Sitwell's eighteenth century has been described as "emphatically not an age of rationalism, but of eccentricity". Sitwell imagines Pope "as a misfit in a world that insisted on sameness, an artist of gleeful perversity who delighted in cataloguing the absurdities of dunces. Sitwell was writing a passionate defence of an ill, odd, disfigured, ostracized poet whose work was a way of getting through the 'long disease' of life". (Alexandra Harris, Romantic Moderns, p65)
