A poem inspired by Celtic folklore and by Yeats’s relationships with Maud Gonne and Olivia Shakespear, it was reprinted, with some minor textual changes and a fuller explanatory note by the author, in Yeats’s 1899 collection The Wind Among the Reeds. In his later note Yeats explains the poem in part by quoting Coleridge: “The man’s desire is for the woman; but the woman’s desire is rarely other than for the desire of the man.” Also contains illustrations by D.G.

One octavo leaf folded into four pages, Signed “Gliddon,” dated 6 June 1847 from the Franklin Hotel in Philadelphia. Gliddon apologizes for not writing, laying the blame on archeologist and editor E.G. Squier who apparently was supposed to explain to Bartlett about Gliddon’s travel and adventures in Ohio. Gliddon facetiously threatens that if Squier has failed in this charge, Gliddon will “… review him, as Job wished to serve his ‘adversary’s book’, in the Jerusalem Quarterly.” Gliddon discusses a mix­up in receiving Bartlett’s book, Progress of Ethnology, buying a copy, lending it to Hodgson, acknowledges Bartlett’s kind notice of him in the book, etc. He relates the activities of another acquaintance, Dickson. He mentions his western trip, and claims that “in Louisville, Ky. they tax intelligence $5 per night!” He looks forward to seeing Bartlett “so I shall have the pleasure of fighting our battles over again.” He mentions other colleagues as well. An interesting letter between two leading archeologists of the day. [BTC #326510] 15 (Art). DRIVER, Clive E.

  • Charles Ricketts' Illustrations for Two of Oscar Wilde's Poems in Prose
    3 FAITHFUL INFIDELITY: CHARLES RICKETTS' ILLUSTRATIONS FOR TWO OF OSCAR WILDE'S POEMS IN PROSE Jeremiah Romano Mercurio (University of St Andrews) Abstract The artist, collector, and critic Charles Ricketts (1866–1931) has often been characterised as a reactionary voice in early-twentieth-century debates about modern art. Although he responded conservatively to modern-art developments such as those embodied by the term 'Post-Impressionism', his work in book design and illustration exemplifies progressive strategies of decoration that reconfigure the relationship between author and illustrator as one of collaborative authorship. Ricketts' illustrations are autonomous narratives that not only reproduce the meanings of the texts they represent, but also parody and elaborate on them. Moreover, Ricketts' book designs and illustrations represent a complex resistance to and working out of Oscar Wilde's views on art, language, and orality. Wilde regarded visual art as inferior to language because the latter can embody the graphic and is free from the former's fixity in time and materiality. Ricketts' illustrational strategies are designed, not only to reinforce his own autonomy, but also to disprove Wilde's description of visual art as limited compared with language. Ricketts' progressive strategies of design are epitomized by his unpublished illustrations for Wilde's Poems in Prose (1894), a text which dramatises the centrality of voice to Wilde's poetic endeavour and allows Ricketts directly to challenge Wilde's denigration of the visual arts. By focusing on two representative examples, Ricketts' drawings for 'The Disciple' and 'The House of Judgment', and by providing close readings of both image and text, this piece traces Ricketts' illustrational methods and reveals their debts to Wilde's own theories of orality, language, and visual arts, charting Ricketts' divergences from Wilde's texts and highlighting the critical dialogue implicit in the illustrations.

  • Critical Introduction to Volume 1 of the Dial (1889)
    Critical Introduction to Volume 1 of The Dial (1889) The unsigned “Apology” located on the final page of the first Dial brought out Figure 1. Pictorial Initial "U" Designed by Charles Ricketts for John Gray’s “The Great Worm” by Charles Ricketts and Charles Shannon in August 1889 outlined the editorial defense (apologia) for the eccentric publication: “The sole aim of this magazine is to gain sympathy with its views” (36). The views expressed in this first number were those of a very limited group indeed: four young men based in central London. In addition to co-editors Ricketts and Shannon, who between them produced most of the magazine’s contents, Reginald Savage contributed a single artwork and a series of brief “Notes” on current exhibitions and John Gray provided a fairy tale and a critical essay. Like its Pre-Raphaelite predecessor the Germ (1850), the Dial sought to set the visual and verbal arts in dialogue with each other. Artists illustrated the literary efforts of their colleagues, Ricketts designed textual ornaments for specific pieces of writing (fig. 1), and the magazine as whole engaged with ideas of design. While the Dial might have shared the Germ’s subtitle, “Thoughts Towards Nature in Art and Literature,” its approach is more fantastic, mythical, and decorative. Indeed, the magazine’s artistic vision extends 1 beyond the English Pre-Raphaelites to include the art and literature of the Continent, particularly that of France. The “Apology” concludes with the acknowledgement that “we are out of date in our belief that the artist’s conscientiousness cannot be controlled by the paying public” (36).

Overview Edward Ardizzone RA was one of relatively few British artists who defined the field of illustration for their generation. Although his work as an artist and illustrator was wide-ranging, it is for his illustrated children's books, almost continuously available since they were first published from the late s onwards, that he is best known. This book provides the first fully illustrated survey of Ardizzone's work, analysing his activity as an artist and illustrator in the context of 20th- century British art, illustration, printing and publishing. Copiously illustrated with many previously unpublished images, Edward Ardizzone: Artist and Illustrator also contributes more broadly to the Edward Ardizzone: Artist and Illustrator reassessment and investigation of midth-century British art Edward Ardizzone: Artist and Illustrator illustration. Alan Powers author of the bestselling Eric Ravilious: Artist and Designer has written a critically considered text which draws for the first time on the family's archives, those of Ardizzone's publishers, and conversations with those who knew the artist.
