Folger-specific note
From dealer's description: "Some light marginal dust-soiling; original publisher’s green printed wrappers, extremities and spine chipped but with sewing still holding, some light dust-soiling, early ink inscription to upper wrapper. First edition thus: The Taming of the Shew, translated by József Lévay (1825–1918)and The Comedy of Errors, by the poet László Arany (1844–1898), the seventh volume in the collected works published by the Kisfaludy Society, the first complete Hungarian translation, 1864–78. The Society, founded in 1836 and named after the dramatist Károly Kisfaludy, was a powerful player in Hungarian literary life until it was dissolved in 1952. It made a number of important works available to the reading public through affordable editions such as this one.Interest in Shakespeare first took hold in Hungary in the late eighteenth century, when his works were used to help establish a new national theatrical canon. Shakespeare would continue to hold interest in Hungary during its turbulent nineteenth century as it grappled with its national identity.This edition not in COPAC or WorldCat."
