Aggiungi al carrelloEarly American printing. [6], 343, [1], [2] pages. Hardcover: H 19.75cm x L 13.25cm. No dust jacket. Brown cloth mildly soiled; shallow chip to front board's top fore-edge corner with small surface loss to cloth at upper fore-edge; light bumping/scuffing to spine ends; gilt stamping to spine and front board remains fairly bright…. Foxing/toning to text block edges. Green floral decorated endpapers; past owner's ink signature on ffep verso; a few scattered spots of minor foxing and soiling but interior leaves overall remain clean. Binding is firm. Features six stories: "The Invaders;" "The Wood-Cutting Expedition;" "An Old Acquaintance;" "Lost on the Steppe; or, The Snowstorm;" "Polikushka;" "Kholstomir: A Story of a Horse." The title page imprint and Crowell's rear advertising leaf both cite the firm's address at 13 Astor Place which was their location between 1881-1893 (this according to researcher Sid Huttner's online Lucile Project which tracks the innumerable editions of Owen Meredith's classic novel). It is likely impossible to definitively ascertain Crowell's correct first printing of THE INVADERS but at least this copy is theoretically limited to 1887-1893.

Cover has wear and soiling, edges and corners rubbed, with some fraying at top and bottom on spine. Decorative endpapers. Footnotes. Some page wear and s…oiling. Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy (9 September 1828 - 20 November 1910), usually referred to as Leo Tolstoy, was a Russian writer who is regarded as one of the greatest authors of all time. He received nominations for the Nobel Prize in Literature every year from 1902 to 1906 and for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1901, 1902, and 1909; the fact that he never won is a major controversy. Tolstoy's notable works include the novels War and Peace (1869) and Anna Karenina (1878), often cited as pinnacles of realist fiction. He first achieved literary acclaim in his twenties with his semi-autobiographical trilogy, Childhood, Boyhood, and Youth, and Sebastopol Sketches, based upon his experiences in the Crimean War. His fiction includes short stories, novellas, plays and numerous philosophical essays. In the 1870s, Tolstoy experienced a profound moral crisis, followed by what he regarded as an equally profound spiritual awakening, as outlined in his nonfiction work A Confession. Nathan Haskell Dole (August 31, 1852 - May 9, 1935) was an American editor, translator, and author. A writer and journalist, he translated many of the works of Leo Tolstoy and of other Russians; novels of Armando Palacio Valdés; and works from the French and Italian. From 1887 to 1901 he was literary advisor to T. Y. Crowell Publishing Company. The short stories here presented form about one-half of the twelfth volume of Count Tolstoi's collected writings. In the translation of these stories, no attempt has been made to make smooth, easy reading: the effort has been rather to reproduce the crisp, sharp staccato of the Russian. A glossary of all the words found in the text may not be found amiss. For the sake of some reader, who may like a little stronger flavor of the original, certain words and expressions are referred to in footnotes. The Death of Ivan Ilyich, first published in 1886, is a novella by Leo Tolstoy, considered one of the masterpieces of his late fiction, written shortly after his religious conversion of the late 1870s. Considered to be one of the finest examples of a novella, The Death of Ivan Ilyich tells the story of a high-court judge in 19th-century Russia and his sufferings and death from a terminal illness. Ivan Ilyich lives a carefree life that is "most simple and most ordinary and therefore most terrible". Like everyone he knows, he spends his life climbing the social ladder. Enduring marriage to a woman whom he often finds too demanding, he works his way up to be a magistrate, thanks to the influence he has over a friend who has just been promoted, focusing more on his work as his family life becomes less tolerable. While hanging curtains for his new home one day, he falls awkwardly and hurts his side. Though he does not think much of it at first, he begins to suffer from a pain in his side. As his discomfort grows, his behavior towards his family becomes more irritable. His wife finally insists that he visit a physician. The physician cannot pinpoint the source of his malady, but soon it becomes clear that his condition is terminal. Confronted with his diagnosis, Ivan attempts every remedy he can to obtain a cure for his worsening situation, until the pain grows so intense that he is forced to cease working and spend the remainder of his days in bed. Here, he is brought face to face with his mortality and realizes that, although he knows of it, he does not truly grasp it. During the long and painful process of dying, Ivan dwells on the idea that he does not deserve his suffering because he has lived rightly. If he had not lived a good life, there could be a reason for his pain; but he has, so pain and death must be arbitrary and senseless. As he begins to hate his family for avoiding the subject of his death, for pretending he is only sick and not dying, he finds his only comfort in his peasant boy servant, Gerasim, the only person in Ivan's life who does not fear death, and also the only one who, apart from his own son, shows compassion for him. Ivan begins to question whether he has, in fact, lived a good life. In the final days of his life, Ivan makes a clear split between an artificial life, such as his own, which masks the true meaning of life and makes one fear death, and an authentic life, the life of Gerasim. Authentic life is marked by compassion and sympathy, the artificial life by self-interest. Then "some force" strikes Ivan in the chest and side, and he is brought into the presence of a bright light. His hand falls onto his nearby son's head, and Ivan pities his son. He no longer hates his daughter or wife, but rather feels pity for them, and hopes his death will release them. In so doing, his terror of death leaves him, and as Tolstoy suggests, death itself disappears. Presumed First U. S. Edition, First printing.

A writer and journalist in Philadelphia, New York, and Boston, he translated many of the works of Leo Tolstoy and of other Russians; novels of Armando Palacio Valdés; a variety of works from the French and Italian. From 1887 to 1901 he was literary advisor to T. Y. Crowell Publishing Company. Anna Karenina is a novel by the Russian author Leo Tolstoy, first published in book form in 1878. A portrait of marriage and infidelity in imperial Russia, "Anna Karenina" explores love, life, and the depths of the human soul in a tale as illuminating as it is tragic. Widely considered to be one of the greatest works of literature ever written, Tolstoy himself called it his first true novel. It was initially released in serial installments from 1875 to 1877, all but the last part appearing in the periodical The Russian Messenger. A complex novel in eight parts, with more than a dozen major characters, Anna Karenina is spread over more than 800 pages (depending on the translation and publisher). It deals with themes of betrayal, faith, family, marriage, Imperial Russian society, desire, and rural vs. city life. The story centers on an extramarital affair between Anna and dashing cavalry officer Count Alexei Kirillovich Vronsky that scandalizes the social circles of Saint Petersburg and forces the young lovers to flee to Italy in a search for happiness, but after they return to Russia, their lives further unravel. Trains are a motif throughout the novel, with several major plot points taking place either on passenger trains or at stations in Saint Petersburg or elsewhere in Russia. The story takes place against the backdrop of the liberal reforms initiated by Emperor Alexander II of Russia and the rapid societal transformations that followed. The novel has been adapted into various media including theatre, opera, film, television, ballet, figure skating, and radio drama. One of the greatest novels ever written, "Anna Karenina" follows the self-destructive path of a beautiful, popular, and sensual Russian aristocrat. The lovely Anna seems set in a respectable marriage with the powerful statesman Karenin, yet their lack of passion breeds the discontent she fully faces upon meeting the elegant and affluent officer Count Vronsky. Soon convinced that allowing herself to deeply love this man will enable her to find the meaning and truth of her life, Anna defies the conventions of Russian society and leaves her husband and children for her lover. Tolstoy juxtaposes this ill-fated couple with the melancholy Levin and his new wife Kitty. Levin is also searching for the fulfillment and happiness in his life, and he ultimately finds a happiness that Anna's love does not. Presumed First U. S. Edition, First printing.

First American edition, with most of the presumed first issue points including floral endpapers, "13 Astor Place" to title page, sheets bulking at 35 mm.), but 6 pp. of ads at rear. viii, 5-773, [1, blank], [6, ads]. Bound in publisher's brown cloth stamped in gilt, ivy-patterned en…dpapers. Near Fine with light rubbing and light dampstaining to covers, irregular sunning to front board. Binding starting at p. iii, overopened throughout, and penciled gift inscription dated the year of publication to fly-leaf. One-inch split to title page at upper gutter, small corner crease up to p. 10, contents lightly toned. Line, Ettlinger and Gladstone 39. The issue points of different printings of the first American edition of Anna Karenina have yet to be determined. This copy has six advertising pages at rear, including three full-page ads for books published in 1886. That, together with an inscription dated 1886, indicates a very early print date. Tolstoy's epic tale of the pursuit of happiness was well-received when it was published in English, eight years after it appeared as a three-volume novel in Russia. "All of the gnawing, agitating questions of the nineteenth century are brought up in Anna Karenina," wrote one contemporary reviewer. Those questions aren't fully answered, but they are explored in the dueling narratives of a woman's fall from grace and a man's rise to sublimity.
