(德·昆西,T.)。 《一个英国鸦片吸食者的忏悔》。第二版。伦敦,泰勒与赫西出版社,1823年。 小八开本(18 x 11 厘米)。IV,206 页,[3] 页(出版商广告)。约1900年半皮装帧,书脊题名、书脊及上边缘均饰有金箔。 诺曼 619:“英国文学中最著名的吸毒自白”。——“这是德·昆西出版的第一部重要作品,也是使他几乎一夜成名的作品”(J. S. 里昂,《托马斯·德·昆西》,纽约,1969年,第91页)。 - 托马斯·德·昆西(1785-1859)最著名且最具轰动性的作品《一个英国鸦片吸食者的忏悔》,于1821年首次发表在《伦敦杂志》上。 - 自首次出版起,《忏悔录》便在德·昆西的文学创作及其文学声誉中占据着首要地位;“该书历经无数次再版,仅偶尔间隔数年,且屡被翻译成多种语言。 由于在他去世很久之后,关于麻醉剂的系统性研究才开始兴起,因此德·昆西的记述被视为权威之作,实际上主导了几代人对鸦片效应的科学和公众看法”(A. 海特,企鹅版序言,第22页)。 - “夏尔·波德莱尔于1860年翻译并改编的《人工乐园》(Les paradis artificiels)进一步扩大了该作品的影响力。 《福尔摩斯探案集》中的《歪嘴人》(1891年)一文中,有一位角色是鸦片成瘾者,他是在学生时代读过《忏悔录》后开始尝试吸食鸦片的。德·昆西曾试图回应此类批评。 当1821年的原稿于次年以书籍形式出版时,他添加了关于戒断过程的附录;并在1856年的修订版中插入了大量关于鸦片医学方面的内容”(维基百科)。 - 书脊略有磨损,品相极佳,两侧及底部未裁切。
