Descrizione

8vo., First Edition thus, with portrait frontispiece in photogravure (original tissue guard present), small signature on front free endpaper; original green cloth, gilt back, gilt top, an unusually bright, clean, crisp copy. The first edition to combine 'The Dynasts' and 'The Famous Tragedy of the Queen of Cornwall' in a single volume. Issued as Volume II of 'The Poetical Works', it is nevertheless complete in itself (Volume I collects the author's several volumes of poetry). 'The Dynasts' was originally published in three parts (1903, 1906, 1908) and first collected in a single (complete) volume in 1910. 'The Queen of Cornwall' (1923) was re-issued in a second and considerably revised edition in the following year. See Purdy, pp. 134 and 230.
