Darkening to spines; scraping & wear; occasional short pencil lines next to text; hinges cracked and with tape repair in Vol. I; front hinge cracked in Vol. II; a good set. "Although presented as a medical text, The Anatomy of Melancholy is as much a sui generis (unique) work of literature as it is a scientific or philosophical text, as Burton covers far more than the nomitive subject. Anatomy uses melancholy as a lens through which all human emotion and thought may be scrutinized, and virtually the entire contents of a 17th-century library are marshalled into service of this goal. It is encyclopedic in its range and reference." - wiki.
