See More... (Gill, Eric) Gill, Evan R. ERIC GILL, A BIBLIOGRAPHY.
Revised by D. Steven Corey and Julia Mackenzie. Winchester St Paul's Bibliographies 1991 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. xv, 368 pages.
Decades have passed since the death of Eric Gill (1882-1940) and yet the reputation of this remarkable artist and thinker continues to grow. Famous for his stone carving, wood engraving, type designs and writing, he has also found a wide appeal amongst a younger generation who are sympathetic to his outlook on life - to "make a cell of good living in the chaos of our world." Since the original bibliography by Gill's brother, Evan, was published in 1953, a great deal of new material has come to light in the fine collections built up in the USA and elsewhere in recent years, and this new edition is a complete revision of the original bibliography. It includes not only all the new discoveries but also the material published on Gill in the last thirty-eight years. The number of bibliographical entries has increased by over one third in this greatly expanded work. The book has been redesigned with advice from Gill's nephew, Christopher Skelton, placing greater emphasis on the illustrations, which have been either retaken from the original editions or introduced as completely new ones of bibliographical interest.

See More... (Golden Cockerel Press) Swinburne, Algernon Charles PASIPHAE.
(London Golden Cockerel Press 1950) 8vo. two-toned blue and gold cloth with design in gilt on front cover, top edge gilt, others uncut. 40 pages
Printed in an edition limited to 500 copies(Cock-A-Hoop 185). Swinburne's poem, here correctly printed for the first time, has been prepared for press from the manuscript in the British Museum and introduced by Randolph Hughes, who remarked that "the get-up of the book is admirable...worthy of the poem itself, and that is saying a lot" (Cave, History of the Golden Cockerel Press 202). "Among the greatest poets of antiquity, Euripedes, Propertius, Virgil, and Ovid all found in the legend of beautiful, tortured Pasiphae, who loved a bull (as a result of divine wrath), a subject to evoke sublime verse, and Swinburne when he chose this theme, was in noble company. Ignored by editors and critics-- because of its subject matter-- the poem is nevertheless comparable with his finest work. Although this is a sister volume to "Hero & Leander (no. 183), I did not want the two to be identical twins, and so used Bembo roman type to give a different effect. (Cock-A-Hoop 185). Illustrated with 7 copper engravings by John Buckland Wright (1897-1954) with his usual "restrained, but full-blooded eroticism." Light rubbing of covers.
