BRAGA. Dichterlijke Mengelingen uitgegeven door Een Dichtlievend Gezelschap, onder de nooit gebruikte Zinspreuk: "Utile Dulci". Utr., v. Paddenburg, 1843-44. 2 vols in 1. iv, 96; iv, 92 pp. Cont. hcl. (Discrete bookplate on paste down: Bibliotheek Robidé van der Aa).
First edition of the entire run of the satirical periodical Braga. The first year was filled entirely by A.W. Winkler Prins and J.J.L Ten Kate; the second year (which seems to be of lesser, and less good-natured, quality) was mostly from the hands of H. Kretzer and J.G. de Hoop Scheffer. The magazine's one and only goal was to mock the literati of its time, especially the ones taking themselves too seriously. Only in 1863, when Winkler Prins edited a reprint, was it revealed who the authors of the satire where. (Cf.: D. de Lange. Nederlandse nonsens op rijm. Het Spectrum, Utrecht / Antwerpen, [1953]).€ 100
