[SC: 11.66], [PU: London and Cambridge: Macmillan and Co., 1862], BOOKS LITERATURE PRE-1900 POETRY ONLINE CATALOGUES CATALOGUE 184 BINDINGS BAYNTUN AND RIVIERE 192 NOISBN, First edition, in a handsome binding. Goblin Market, a fantastical narrative poem with illustrations by Christina's brother Dante Gabriel, has been interpreted variously as a feminist tract, a capitalist critique, an allegory for drug addiction, and a children's story. "In 1862 her first collection, 'Goblin Market' and other Poems, 'with two designs by D. G. Rossetti', was published under her own name by Macmillan & Co. and was universally praised by reviewers as the herald of a new voice and an original talent. Sales, however, were disappointing. In the twentieth century a great interest has been taken in Freudian interpretations of poems such as 'Goblin Market', and her work, which was previously admired for its innocence and artlessness, has become a hunting-ground for critics and biographers; enlisted as a symbol of repressed female genius, she has had her work scanned for tropes of starvation and sexual guilt" (ODNB). This copy with the second state of signature C, with "anguish" corrected to "aguish" at l. 17 on p. 26, of no significance for issue (Ives A3.1). Ives A3.1. Octavo (168 x 105 mm). Contemporary blue morocco by Riviere & Son, spine in compartments, each tooled with floral design or lettered in gilt, raised bands ruled in gilt, triple rule frame in gilt to boards, edges ruled in gilt, turn-ins elaborately tooled in gilt, marbled endpapers, top edge gilt, others untrimmed. Original blue vertical rib cloth (binding A, no priority) bound in at end. Frontispiece and illustrated title vignette by Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Illuminated bookplate of fine binding collector Christine Alexander Graham (1888-1959) on the front pastedown. Spine and board edges darkened, a near-fine copy, contents fresh.<
