Is that what these are? The release date is different. I like the look.

They may have introductions that could be different lengths, different fonts, and some books like that have footnotes, which can add to page counts.

But the biggest difference here is probably just the size of the page. The paperback is "198mm x 10mm x 129mm" and the hardback is "174mm x 25mm x 113mm". It's smaller in size, so it has to be thicker/have more pages.

(Even the same edition can vary a few pages between paperback and hardback, though.)

ETA: Looking on Amazon, it looks like the paperback intro is by Anthony Grafton and the hardcover intro is by Tim Parks, the translator. I also see Coralie Bickford-Smith listed as an illustrator on the hardcover, so there may be some illustrations in that copy as well. (She may have just done the cover, though. I can't tell from the listing.) -- https://www.amazon.com/Prince-Penguin-Classics-Hardcover/dp/0141395877/ref=sr_1_3?crid=3V3C9Y5CWNG33&keywords=the+prince+penguin+classics&qid=1566404430&s=books&sprefix=the+prince+penguin+%2Cstripbooks%2C203&sr=1-3
