Description from the seller
De Hollandsche Spectator - Justus van Effen - Amsterdam, K van Tongerlo, 1756 - second edition, - 2 volumes, hardcover - 400; 780 pages - half-leather binding
Good. Scuffs and bumps on the bands, some paper loss from flattening. Interior discolored (in the photos slightly lighter than in reality), with some spots here and there. Stamp on the cover or flyleaf. Scribble at the top of the title page. Only minor creases. Initials in the bottom margin of the last page of both parts. Two dents in the side margin of the first 20 pages.
Part 4 contains the original parts 7 and 8.
Van Effen became known through his publication of the Hollandsche Spectator, which appeared from August 1731 to April 1735. Although he had some regular contributors, most of the pieces were written by Van Effen himself. He commented on Dutch spirit, frugality, cleanliness obsession, excessive eating and drinking habits, and provincialism. His style is rationalizing and sober. Van Effen's famous novella, Kobus and Agnietje, was first published in the magazine in 1733.
