A rare and useful collection

The Book of Job is one of those cornerstone monuments of Western culture in which every serious student of the humanities should be versed. This collection hails from the late fifties/early sixties, an era when academic writing was flowing thick and fast, and deep, carefully articulated scholarship seemed more abundant. A well-crafted and printed volume, beginning with a nicely set, unadulterated rendition of the King James translation, includes interesting, if not definitive, commentary from Calvin, Kierkegaard, John Henry Newman, Bacon, Blake, Carlyle, Royce, and numerous others. Not for the unlettered, but beyond the Anchor Bible, the most useful reference I've found on the subject.
