Description: Early EditionLondon: Walter Scott,. Possible First UK Edition. Fair Condition. Publisher's hardcover on board and spine. Wear along the edges of cover boards. Discoloration to cover. Translated from Russian by Almyre Maude. Completed in Russian in 1897 but first published in English due to difficulties with the Russian censors. Maude's excellent translation of Tolstoy's treatise on the emotionalist theory of art was the first unexpurgated version of the work to appear in any languages. More than ninety years later this work remains, as Vincent Tomas observed, one of the most rigorous attacks on formalism and on the doctrine of art for art's sake ever written.Domestic Shipping:FREE SHIPPING!
