Title: Zeluco. Various Views Of Human Nature, Taken From Life And Manners, Foreign And Domestic, In Two Volumes. Author: Dr John Moore. Published: 1789 + 1790. Place Published: London, England. Published By: A. Strahan. Description: Please note that Volume I is a Third Edition copy (1790), Volume II is a Second Edition copy (1789) - please see pictures! Zeluco charts the career of a wicked Sicilian aristocrat who causes death and ruin to all those around him before finally meeting a wretched death. Zeluco is much more than an early Gothic novel featuring a monomaniacal tyrant; it is a rich panorama of life in the late eighteenth century, dealing with English and European manners and hot topics of the day, such as the abolition of slavery. Perhaps, though, Zeluco's most striking feature is its incredible modernity! Size (each volume): Approx 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" x 1 1/2". Condition: Overall excellent condition for year.
