An excellent Leavisite association copy in Queenie Leavis’s best regarded work, inscribed to the couple’s long term collaborator and friend, Denys Thompson.

First edition in blue cloth, externally nearly very good; cracking along the inner hinges, upper and lower; gatherings a little shaken; spine lean. Queenie Leavis has inscribed the flyleaf: ‘A.D.H. Thompson April 1932 from Q.D. Leavis.’ Occasional pencil marginalia throughout, probably not in Thompson’s hand. Jacket is good only, spine browned with finger marking to the scarce yellow jacket.

Together F R Leavis and his wife Queenie Leavis were dominant figures in English literary studies during the mid-20th century. Denys Thompson (1907-1988) was a student of F R Leavis and collaborated with them on the 1933 publication, Culture and Environment.
