Aggiungi al carrelloNavy Cloth Hardback. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. 1901. First edition. xiii, 198pp., a frontispiece portrait and 6 pages of advertisements for other publications at the end of the book. John Stuart Blackie (1809-1895) was a Scottish scholar and man of letters. After attending classes at Edinburgh University (1825-1826).… He spent three years at Aberdeen as a student of theology, and in 1829 he went to Germany. After studying at Göttingen and Berlin he accompanied Bunsen to Italy and Rome. The years spent abroad extinguished his former wish to enter the Church, and at his father's desire he gave himself up to the study of law. Blackie was a Radical and Scottish nationalist in politics; and possessed of great conversational powers and general versatility, his picturesque eccentricity made him one of the characters of the Edinburgh of the day. He had a habit of preserving in manuscript his random thoughts on life, character, literature, and general economics, and this volume contains a collection of entries from his 'Day-book', selected and transcribed from the manuscript by his nephew. The book is bound in the original black buckram cloth covered boards with gold titling on the spine. The case of the book is in very good condition with fairly noticeable shelf wear and some light soiling on both boards. There is also some patchy damp fading on the boards. The corners and spine ends are bumped with some damage to the cloth at the top of the spine and wear on the bottom spine corners. The contents are tight and clean with offsetting to the free endpapers. There is no inscription.
