Description
Paris: Éditions Cahiers d’Art, 1947. First edition. [48] pp. Plain wrappers with attached dust jacket. Some toning to cover extremities, minor handling wear, near fine. One of 500 numbered copies, although Eluard noted that only 258 copies were printed due to a lack of paper. Eluard’s poignant tribute to his wife Nusch, published a few months after her sudden and unexpected death. Illustrated with eleven exquisite photographs of Nusch by Man Ray and Dora Maar. Nusch had also been the subject of Man Ray’s camera in the similarly superlative Facile, published ten years earlier. In 1965, Louis Aragon, during a tribute to his friend, mentioned his first encounter with the book: “He signed it with an invented name Didier Desroches, because he had killed Paul Eluard… What he had shown me of Didier was of a confounding beauty. This little book which was to appear as the work of an unknown, it is an understatement to say that in my eyes it surpasses all that Eluard signed with his name. I thought it then, and I think it today.” A rare and beautiful book.

Description
Venice: Octaviani Scoti per Bonetus de Locatellis, 1503. Hardcover. Very Good. Small folio, printed in gothic type in two columns, woodcut initials & text diagrams; woodcut printer's device on final leaf. Bound in modern half parchment with printed paper boards. A copy with significant contemporary marginal notes in several sections, the annotations run tight up against the outer margin. Title page cut down by one inch at the foot; some scattered spotting & worming, but generally a nice copy of an early (and uncommon to the market) post-incunable edition, worthy of future study. A recent edition was published in 2024 by the Aquinas Institute. Beth Mortensen summarizes the significance of the text: "All of us living in this Cartesian age grow accustomed to thinking of our bodies as animated machines—machines that function better or worse, subject to innumerable material factors. De Anima [On the Soul] reminds us that the human person is one whole, and the soul is actively making the body what it is. This means that, among other things, the quality of the body’s functioning does not determine a human being’s 'quality of life,' and it is completely irrelevant to that person’s worth or dignity." see: aquinas institute - commentary on de anima.
