A descriptive catalog of one of the world's largest collections of Milton and MiltonianaRobert J. Wickenheiser started his Milton collection as a graduate student at the University of Minnesota in the late 1960s. Later, as a faculty member at Princeton, he began focusing on illustrated Milton, and he established friendships with many of the finest antiquarian book dealers on both sides of the Atlantic. In the years that followed, the Wickenheiser Collection has grown beyond six thousand volumes, including more than sixty seventeenthcentury editions of Milton's writings and significant holdings of seventeenthcentury Miltoniana. The special focus on illustrated editions makes this arguably the most comprehensive collection of published Milton illustration anywherefrom the first illustrated edition of Paradise Lost (1688) through all the major illustrators that follow, particularly John Martin (17891854) and Gustave Dor (18321883), and including also original drawings by various other artists, known and unknown. The collection's eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentiethcentury editions record Milton's continuing impact, while expansive holdings of Milton biography, scholarship, and criticism document the growth of knowledge about the poet's life, writings, and influence.Beautifully designed and augmented by nearly three hundred color illustrations, this comprehensive descriptive account of the Wickenheiser Collection is being published in 2008 to honor Milton's birth four hundred years ago. The book includes descriptions of nearly twentyeight hundred editions in the collection, with a large number of the eighteenth and nineteenthcentury editions described for the first time. Detailed listings are provided for all seventeenth and eighteenthcentury Miltoniana as well as select later works. In addition, Wickenheiser provides a section devoted to original drawings, illustrations, engravings, prints, portraits, manuscripts, illuminated texts, ephemera, memorial medals, and other artifacts to show responses to Milton through the centuries.The Wickenheiser Collection and its corresponding illustrated descriptive account collectively offer Milton scholars and devotees an unparalleled treasure trove of research opportunities into the writings, reception, and lasting literary and cultural influence of this most important of seventeenthcentury Englishlanguage poets.
