Description
Dedham: Dedham Patriot Office, 1835. 40pp. Stitched, mild toning, occasional light foxing, Very Good. Chief Justice Lemuel Shaw presided. His eight-page charge to the jury, and his three-page address to the prisoner are printed. Names of jurors and counsel are listed. Wade had been indicted earlier "for the same burning, but was acquitted; because the right owners of the barn had not been set out in the indictment." Wade's claim of double jeopardy was rejected, and his new trial went forward. This, the only separately published account of the trial, summarizes the arguments of counsel and the testimony of witnesses on direct and cross-examination. On October 30, 1832, Wade torched a barn; the fire spread to nearby properties. The trial occurred on October 28, 1835. The jury found him guilty. Chief Justice Shaw sentenced him to "be hanged by the neck, until you are DEAD. And may the God of all justice and grace, in his infinite goodness, have mercy on your soul." Cohen 12152. II Harv. Law Cat. 1217.

Description
A New Directions Book, (1980). First Edition. Octavo, brown cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, 322 pp. Fine in a Very Good, mylar protected dust jacket with lightly rubbed edges. From dust jacket: As a prime mover of modernism, Ezra Pound applied his unflagging energy to an astonishing range of activities. His early associations with Wyndham Lewis and the young sculptor Henri Gaudier-Brzeska are well known. What has been generally overlooked, however, is the degree to which Pounds’ continued participation int he art world influenced the reshaping of our perceptions. Ezra Pound and the Visiual Arts is the first gathering of the poet’s writings in the field. In the opening section are assembled all of his art reviews contributed to Lond’s The New Age in the years 1913-22. It iwas at this same time that he, with Lewis and others, launched the Vorticist movement, and the next section includes his heady, often vehement pronouncements, along with a discussion of the new art form of “vortography.” Subsequent parts present Pound’s intense opinions on the visual arts reflected over the course of his lifetime: his articles of miscellaneous periodicals; previously unpublished letters to the American art patron John Quinn; relevant excerpts from published books; and a further selection of uncollected manuscripts and papers, from 1909 to 1957. Ezra Pound and the Visual Arts, edited by Harriet Zinnes, art critic, poet, fiction writer, and professor of English at Queens College of the City University of New York, is a companion volume to R. Murray Schafer’s Ezra Pound and Music (1977). Together, these two books serve to document the poet’s unsparing efforts beyond the confines of literature in laying the aesthetic groundwork for the contemporary arts.
