1927. [AVANT-GARDE] UMEHARA Hokumei, et al. BUNGEI SHIJO Vol.3 #6. Wrappers, 21.7 x 15 cm. Tokyo, Showa 2 [1927] First published in November of 1925, this issue of June 1927 unleashed its mordant humor on the literary world of Japan. The cover is a study all on its own, with the cockamamie orthography and inside jokes of the avant-garde. The contents in this case celebrate the 250 year anniversary of Yaoya Oshichi, a girl of 16 burned at the stake in the 17th century whose tragic story was picked up by Saikaku at the time and became an important joruri and kabuki theme thereafter. Besides that emphasis the notes run the gamut from literary gossip to the latest on Russian and European art and literary movements and theorists. At first solidly left wing and imersed in the avant-garde, the magazine lasted for 19 issues, into later in 1927, when Umehara took his interests into even more scandalous avenues and began publishing GROTESQUE magazine, the heart of the ero-guro movement. This copy of the BUNGEI SHIJO is very good overall.

Description
(Boston): (From the press of John Eliot), (1810). First edition. The subject of this pamphlet centers around a naval engagement in 1809 between between the British "HMS Leopard" and the American frigate "USS Chesapeake." The Leopard attacked, and boarded the American frigate, looking for deserters from the Royal Navy. "Chesapeake" was unprepared and after a short battle, James Barron surrendered his ship to the British. Four crew members were removed from the American vessel and were tried for desertion, one of whom was subsequently hanged. Naturally, this did not sit well with Americans. However, the British did not back down, insisting on their right to seize deserters from the Royal Navy, even if they were on American ships. It was a key incident in the background of the War of 1812. This copy has been to the wars, as well. The front board and two leaves are detached, and there are numbers stamped on the margins of the title page. Sabin 94678, who notes, "Caption title. Imprint from colophon. Attributed to Benjamin Vaughan in Williamson's Bibliography of Maine." Ex-lib New England Hist. Gen. An excellent candidate for a rebind, with the gold-lettered backstrip intact.. 23 cm. 115 pp.
