John Dryden (1631-1700) was an influential English poet, satirist, playwright, and critic who dominated the literary scene of Restoration England. Born in Northamptonshire and educated at Westminster School and Trinity College, Cambridge, Dryden rose to prominence with his poem Heroique Stanzas (1659), commemorating Oliver Cromwell. His loyalty shifted with the monarchy, and he was elected Poet Laureate in 1668 following the Restoration of Charles II. In Walter Scott's 1963 biography of John Dryden, he describes the Fables as a complete miscellany. An atemporal collection, the fables span time and place to bring Homer, Ovid, Bocaccio, and Chaucer together as contemporaries. Throughout his career, Dryden often explored how people and societies act within the natural rhythms of history, finding his moral ideas in that process. In Fables, however, he moves away from strict historical order. Instead, he creates a world that recognizes and reveres history but does not depend on it. Here, moral meaning comes not from progress through time, but from an equilibrium -- a universe defined and united by ongoing change rather than fixed direction. This late XVIIIc release of Dryden's Fables is richly illustrated by Lady Diana Beauclerk (here "Beauclerc," 1734-1808). Born into the aristocracy and a line of formidable women -- her great-grandmother being Sarah Churchill, Duchess of Malborough -- Lady Beauclerk was known as something of a minx, with her very public divorce on the grounds of "criminal conversation" (adultery) warranting an Act of Parliament. Both her vivacious personality and artistic talents earned her a place in the public's heart. Walpole and Reynolds were among her admirers, and several of her drawings were engraved by Bartolozzi. In addition to her works on paper, she designed bas reliefs for the now iconic Wedgwood company. Samuel Bagster Boulton (1830-1918) was born in London and rose to prominence through his success as a timber merchant and later in the chemical and allied industries. Boulton was the first baronet of Copped Hall, a Knight of Grace of the Order of St John of Jerusalem in England, Lord of the Manor of Totteridge, Justice of the Peace, and Deputy Lieutenant of Hertfordshire. Copped Hall was later known as Darlands but was demolished in 1928. A plaque commemorating Samuel Boulton remains in St. Andrew's church, reading "Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might." Cataloged by G.R. Murdock.

Aggiungi al carrelloFirst Editions. in a contemporary Irish black goatskin binding, gilt border to covers, spine gilt in compartments, lettered in gilt, extremities rubbed, contemporary inscription on the title page ?W. Maguire?, the binding by George Mullen of Dublin, with his ticket. Folio, (370 x 257mm), pp. [iv], xviii, 241, with nine engraved…plates and fourteen part page engravings; engraved frontispiece and pp. [vii], [i], 35, [1], with four further engraved plates and four part page engravings, in parallel text, most of the paper guards still present at the plates, A good copy in an Irish binding of these two works lavishly illustrated by Lady Diana Beauclerk. The daughter of Charles Spencer, 3rd Duke of Marlborough, Lady Di, as she was known, suffered two miserable marriages, the first to Frederick St. John, 2nd Viscount Bolingbroke, during which they were both notoriously unfaithful, and the second to Topham Beauclerk (1739-1780), the great-grandson of Nell Gwyn and Charles II. Beauclerk was a close friend of Dr. Johnson and was known for his brilliant conversation, but he was also famous for his ill-humour and lack of personal hygiene: Fanny Burney recorded Edmund Burke?s reaction to the death of Beauclerk: ?I never, myself, so much enjoyed the sight of happiness in another, as in that woman when I first saw her after the death of her husband? ?During [the years following her divorce] Lady Diana's artistic talents became particularly evident: she practised portraiture, and her enormous output of small drawings of fat cupids entangled in branches of grapes and little girls wearing mob caps gave place to larger and more ambitious groups of peasantry introduced into landscaped backgrounds. She worked chiefly in pen and ink, pastel, and watercolour. Essentially a designer, she successfully executed seven large panels in ?soot ink? (black wash), mounted on Indian blue damask and illustrating Horace Walpole's tragedy The Mysterious Mother. Apt to overrate her skills, Walpole placed these at Strawberry Hill in a specially designed hexagonal room named the Beauclerc closet. At the same time he opined absurdly that ?Salvator Rosa and Guido could not surpass their expression and beauty? (Anecdotes of Painting, 24.524). Lady Diana also enjoyed the patronage of Josiah Wedgwood, probably from 1785, when her designs, mostly those of laughing bacchanalian boys, were translated as bas-reliefs onto jasper ornaments, plates, and jugs; they proved to be enormously popular. In 1796 she illustrated the English translation of G. A. Burger's ballad Leonora and in 1797 The Fables of John Dryden; in both cases her illustrations were engraved mostly by Francesco Bartolozzi? (ODNB). The other engravings in the Dryden are by Vandenberg, Cheeseman and Gardiner. ESTC t128162; t93829.
