Title: The Poetical Works.

Publisher: London: Jones & Company.

Publication Date: 1825

Binding: Hardcover

Book Condition: Very Good

xv, 223 printed pages. Portrait frontispiece and title page vignette (very slightly spotted). On engraved title: "University edition, 1823". Contemporary ink ownership inscription ("July 20. 1833. Louisa. The gift of her affectionate aunt Mary Shepherd"). All edges gilt. Sextodecimo, 59 x 89 mm. Contemporary straight-grained, burgundy morocco, raised bands and elaborate tooling to compartments in gilt, gilt titling, covers with scrolling fleurons in gilt, blind pointille and floral corner-piece borders. Original yellow endpapers, inner gilt dentelles. A very good copy, a little rubbed, contents clean. An attractively bound copy of the poet and physician Akenside's (1721-1770) works, first published in 1772, in small but perfectly legible type. His contemporarily popular poem Pleasures of the Imagination (pp. 2-120) "deeply influenced" Wordsworth and Coleridge; the Romantics were "particularly attracted by the emphasis Akenside placed on the imagination and his active engagement with aesthetic and epistemological theory" (ODNB).
