Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. First Edition (NAP, 1911 on the title page). 'Publications of The University Of Pennsylvania Series In Romanic Languages and Literatures, No. 5.' In Spanish and English: La Comedia is in Spanish, the Introduction (v-xxxiii) and Notes sections (105-130) are in English. There's a two-…page Errata and Addenda ending the book. This is a very rare first edition, and rarer still because it is signed by the author, Don Pedro Calderon De La Barca, who was 311 years old at the time. Actually, this was a dissertation presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University Of Pennsylvania (in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy) by a S.L. Millard Rosenberg, who 'edited, with an introduction and notes.' As the actual author, Solomon Leopold Millard Rosenberg impersonally signed and inscribed the book off the top edge of the title page. The inscription reads: 'With the compliments of the author.' This was his first published book. He edited at least another thirteen over the next 20 years. Dr. Rosenberg has a German Wikipedia profile which google translates as such: 'Solomon Leopold Millard Rosenberg was an American Romanist and Hispanicist of German origin. Rosenberg went to the United States in 1885 and worked as a businessman. After he had the necessary financial resources, he studied from 1903 at the University of Pennsylvania and Grenoble. He received his doctorate in 1910 with the work La Española de Florencio, Comedia famosa de Don Pedro Calderon de la Barca (Philadelphia 1911). He then taught at Swarthmore College (until 1912), at the University of Pennsylvania (1911-1915), at Girard College in Philadelphia (until 1922) and finally Spanish literature and language at the University of California at Los Angeles (Assistant Professor 1922-1930, Associate Professor 1930-1934). He died in a car accident in 1934.' The book survives. You can see the maroon covers in the photos. They are in pretty nice shape, very clean. The gilt lettering on the spine is bright. The six cover edges look very good. Three of the four corners have a small spot of rub-through. The one at the front top corner is a little larger, not terrible. Both spine ends have a little rubbing and crinkling, the bottom one has a small spot of rub-through. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. At the juncture between the rear cover and rear end paper there are tiny open spaces in the paper where the four bindings are. The rear cover is very tightly solidly bound. The pages are lightly (uniformly) toned. They are also exceptionally clean. I didn't find even one instance of soiling. The inside covers and end papers are also very clean. They have a mild bit of creasing, more like a couple of impressions on their paper. There is little to no creasing on the text pages, no turned-down corners or placeholder creases. The condition of the pages is very good. There are no markings in the book. No attachments of any kind. There is a blue penciled '75' on the front inside cover. That and the author's signed inscription represent the only writing to be found anywhere in the book. Signed by Author(s).
