Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung (The World as Will and Representation)

No book-club issue applies to an 1819 Leipzig imprint. The live traps are the enlarged 1844 two-volume Brockhaus second and the 1859 Brockhaus third — both easily miscatalogued as 'the first edition' because vol. I carries the 1819 text in revised form; the volume count settles it, the first being a single volume. The modern Meiner 'Kritische Jubiläumsausgabe der ersten Auflage von 1819', which reprints the first-edition text with Schopenhauer's hand-copy additions, is a scholarly reissue and 'first thus' only despite its title.
