Erstausgabe
First edition in English of Pushkin's final and greatest work, a satirical yet deeply felt romance, anatomizing the Byronic ennui of Russia's aristocracy in the early 19th century. "Perhaps because it was the first, Spalding's translation is often set down as a pioneer version, which we naturally expect to have all the faults of an initial attempt. but the remarkable fact is that it has not more" (Simmons, The Slavonic and East European Review, Volume 17). The translator Henry Spalding apparently learned Russian while stationed at the British Embassy in St Petersburg. His other translations include Suvoroff, Khiva and Turkestan, On the Island of Saghalin, and The Tale of Frithiof (translated from Swedish). Line-Ettlinger-Gladstone p. 29. Octavo. Original green cloth, title to spine gilt, vignette to front cover gilt, brown coated endpapers, fore edge untrimmed. Housed in a dark green cloth flat-back box by the Chelsea Bindery. Pencilled ownership signature to half-title and title page. Spine gently rolled, hinges cracked but firm, tips just a touch worn, couple of spots of foxing to outer leaves, otherwise internally clean. A very nice copy in bright cloth.
