[PUSHKIN, Alexander (1799-1837).] 'Talisman'. [The Talisman]. [In:] Al’bom severnykh muz 1828. [Album of the Northern Muses 1828.] St Petersburg: A. Smirdin, 1828.
The first appearance in print of Pushkin’s poem ‘The Talisman’, in one of the many fine literary almanacs of the period. Edited by A.A. Ivanovskij, amateur poet and officer at the Ministry of State for War, it featured works by P.A. Vjazemskij, N.M. Jazykov and F.N. Glinka, as well as Pushkin. ‘The Talisman’ (‘Tam, gde more vechno pleshchet’) is set in an oneiric, remote, exotic world in which a sorceress asks the poet to protect her beloved talisman. RBH records no other copies being offered at auction. Smirnov-Sokol’skii, Al’manakhi, 291; Moia biblioteka, 1485; Pushkin, 80.
16mo (133 x 100mm). With the engraved title and N.M. Karamzin’s portrait (very minor spotting, the odd pencil annotation). 19th-century Russian half leather, patterned boards, spine tooled and lettered in blind (spine, hinges and corners rubbed). Provenance: 20th-century bibliographic annotation in Cyrillic (front endpapers).
