Description
1952. Lyon: Simon Vincent, 1511. Squat 4to, 8, 281, [1] ff. Below the heading is a woodcut. Below the title is a printer's mark, and below this a fleur-de-lis in red. Title in black and red. Bound by Aarom von Hemmersbach in a colored tattoo binding with the bust of Cicero on the upper cover and a Roman landscape on the lower cover; raised bands with floral decoration. Initially a somewhat crude rebinding by Pierre Thibaudeau brilliantly reworked by von Hemmersbach. § Very rare early edition. Colophon: Absolutum hoc preclarum Opus Lugd ... impensis vero Simonis vincent ac industria Iacobi myt Io i de la place ... anno d i. m. ccccc. xi. Recto of last leaf is blank;verso has mark of Simon Vincent. Manuscript notes and ownership inscriptions partially erased. Although Cicero had been printed from 1470 on, the earliest editions of this version of Cicero were 1509 (2) and 1511 (2, including this one recorded in only one copy in First Search, in Sweden.) Binder's note: "If you have a garden and a library, you have everything you need."- Cicero. An early 16th century printing, the front cover depicting a portrait of Cicero, more accurately, a portrait of a bust of Cicero. On the rear cover, a Roman garden with ruins and green vegetation surrounding a stone patio. On the spine, a cascade of chickpeas and leaves. The Latin word for chickpea, is cicer, and although there are several theories as to why he was given this name, it stuck officially throughout time as Cicero." A. von Hemmersbach.

Berlin: In Ad. Mt. Schlesinger's Buch-und Musikhandlung, Unter den Linden No. 34. [PN 1376], 1826. Folio. Original publisher's gray printed wrappers with titling within decorative border . 1f. (recto title, verso blank), [i] ("Personen" and thematic index), 4-157, [i] (blank) pp. Engraved. With publisher's small monogrammatic handstamp to blank lower inner margin of title. Occasional annotations in pencil. Contemporary signature "Emilie von Wolzogen 1826" to foot of title and foot of upper wrapper (without date), most likely Dorothea Therese Emilie von Wolzogen (1797-1872). RISM ID Number people/144470. Wrappers worn; edges frayed; upper detached. Some signs of wear; minor to moderate foxing to blank margins; a number of signatures split. Quite a good, wide-margined copy overall. First German edition, published shortly after the first London edition. Jahns 306, p. 392. Hirsch IV, 1298. Fuld pp. 395-396. Hoboken 15, 367. Oberon, a romantic opera in three acts to a libretto by James Robinson Planché after Christoph Martin Wieland's poem Oberon, was first performed in London at Covent Garden on 12 April 1826. The present edition includes the fifth aria for the first time. "The whole nature of Oberon ... both in its subject and in the method of treating it which Weber was led to adopt, is orchestral rather than vocal; yet the freshness and charm of his melodies is if anything at its peak in the disjointed numbers which comprise it." Warrack: Carl Maria von Weber, p. 326.

Description
Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, 1976 Book club edition, lacking first edition statement on copyright page. Signed and inscribed by Haley to Cornell University professor Ramona Heck on the front free endpaper: "2/20/90 To Ramona Heck - Love! Alex Haley". Publisher's black cloth-backed tan paper-covered boards, spine lettered in gilt; lacking original dust jacket. Very good, with light soiling and scuffing to boards, and a touch of soiling to text block edges. With a program for Alex Haley appearance at Cornell University on Feb. 2, 1990 laid in. Overall, a solid copy. Roots is a historical novel that chronicles the life of Kunta Kinte and six generations of his descendants over the course of two centuries. At the beginning, Kunta, an adolescent from The Gambia, is captured and, after a treacherous trip via the Middle Passageway, sold into slavery in Maryland. The novel follows Kunta's legacy through his descendants, who embody many of the shared experiences of African Americans living in the United States during those times. At the end of the novel, Haley introduces himself, claiming Kinte as his ancestor as evidenced by stories told by his elder family members and twelve years of extensive original research. While some have questioned its historical accuracy and literary originality, Roots remains a pivotal novel for its importance in creating a space for active African American voices in the history of the United States, a point made poignantly when Roots was published at the nation's bicentennial anniversary. Alex Haley's other classic book is The Autobiography of Malcolm X (1965), which he ghostwrote after conducting more than 50 interviews with Malcolm X. . Inscribed by Author. Book Club (BCE/BOMC). Hard Cover. Very Good.
