2 works in 1 vol., 8vo., text in Spanish, small upper corner clipped from title; attractively bound in contemporary half calf by Caldwell of Dublin, marbled boards with blind fillets at edges, back with four raised bands tooled in gilt, second compartment with black leather label lettered and ruled in gilt, all other compartments ruled in blind, red sprinkled edges, backstrip lightly chafed (without material loss) at headband, joints rubbed, upper joint with short crack (but binding entirely sound), a remarkably bright, crisp, clean copy. With the binder's ticket of Caldwell of Dublin on front paste-down, and 4pp publisher's catalogue bound in at end. Contains all twelve Exemplary Novels: La Jitanilla [sic], El Amante Liberal, Rinconete y Cortadillo, La Espanola Inglesa, El Licenciado Vidriera, La Fuerza de la Sangre, El Celoso Estremeno [sic], La Illustre Fregona, Las Dos Doncellas, La Senora Cornelia, El Casamiento Enganoso, Coloquio Que Paso Entre Cipion y Berganza [El Coloquio de los Perros], plus the 'supplementary' tale La Tia Fingida found in the MS Porros de la Camara and usually attributed to Cervantes. Complete with the author's Dedication and Preface. Collections of the complete Exemplary Novels are now scarce; most modern editions contain fewer than half the canon. Bound with Wittstein's Poesias de la American Meridional (Brockhaus, Leipzig, 1870), with biographical notes on the authors. Nice copy of a scarce edition in period binding. Codice articolo 16466
