GOOD CONDITION - NO RESERVE - LOW OPENING BID!!!
This auction is for a superb vintage hardback FIRST EDITION (First impression of the First Edition) entitled “Experience into Words,” subtitled “Essays on Poetry,” by D. W. Harding, Professor of Psychology in the University of London.
It was published by Chatto and Windus Ltd., of London, in 1963, and is the FIRST EDITION.
These essays, primarily studies of the work of individual poets, from Blake to Eliot, all examine aspects of the process through which words emerge from experience and fuse with it.
The contents include:
· Donne’s Anticipation of Experience
· Experience and Symbol in Blake
· The Theme of ‘The Ancient Mariner’
· Aspects of the Poetry of Isaac Rosenberg
· Progression of Theme in Eliot’s Modern Plays
· The Changed Outlook in Eliot’s later Poems
· Progression of Theme in Eliot’s Modern Plays
...and more...
The book measures 8.75 inches x 6 inches.
The 199 pages are neat, with foxing inside the covers/near the rims. The binding is good with no loose pages (the front endpaper is torn out/missing). There is a previous owner’s name/signature at the front and markings on the inside rear flap of the dustjacket.
The original green hardback cover is in very good condition for its age, having been largely protected by the dust-jacket. The dust-jacket is sound, with tears and chips at the edges, is grubby/faded and has been neatly price-clipped. The gold on the spine is very good.
A wonderful vintage FIRST EDITION– the starting price is just ONE PENNY, with NO RESERVE, and I WILL SELL to the highest bidder.
I am more than happy to combine shipping on multiple purchases and cost will be determined on the total weight of your wins (see below for costs and full details).

No reserve...
...and a give-away starting price...
...so happy bidding!!!
