Title: A handsomely framed 15 August 1912 typed, hand-emended, and signed letter from then-First Lord of the Admiralty Winston S. Churchill to his newly-appointed Naval Advisor to the Ottoman Empire, British Rear-Admiral Arthur Limpus
Author: Winston S. Churchill
Seller: Churchill Book Collector (United States)
Description: Admiralty House, London, 1912. Letter. This handsomely framed item features a typed, hand-emended, and signed 15 August 1912 letter from then-First Lord of the Admiralty Winston S. Churchill on his Admiralty stationery to his newly-appointed Naval Advisor to the Turkish Navy, British Rear-Admiral Arthur Limpus. The letter encapsulates Churchills expectations and ambitions regarding the Ottoman Empire, which would nearly cost Churchill both his political and corporeal lives during the First World War. The letter anchors a multi-item display, framed at the center in double-matted tan and white linen, with each recess trimmed in gilt. Flanking the letter, likewise recessed are (to the right) a 431-word didactic titled The Last Lion Faces First World War engraved on dark bronze supplying a tidy overview of the historical context surrounding the letter. To the lower left, a matching dark bronze engraved placard reads SIR WINSTON S. CHURCHILL | 1874-1965 | First Lord of the Admiralty | 1911-1915, 1939 | Prime Minister of Great Britain | 1940-1945, 1951-1955. At the upper left is a color portrait of Churchill on metal which appears almost certainly to have been extracted from the lid of a circa 1965 special issue illustrated United Biscuits tin (see Douglas Hall, p.20), the aesthetic effect being more pleasing than the humble origins might suggest. The elaborately carved 2.75 inch (7 cm) wide thick brown wood frame measures 31.5 x 23.25 inches (80 x 59 cm), glazed with UV-filtering acrylic. The letter is dated 15 August 1912, and reads, My dear Admiral Limpus, I can easily realise how great | your difficulties are, but I am quite sure | you will make headway against them. The | copy you have sent me of the new Agreement | affecting your position, has been sent to | the Secretary of the Admiralty. Your | letters are always welcome, and I hope | you will not be discouraged by the curious | task you have undertaken. It must be of | extraordinary interest it is certainly of | considerable importance. | You will be pleased to hear that | I have just had a most enthusiastic letter | about you from Mahmoud Muktar. | Yours very truly, Referring to the correspondence from Mahmoud Muktar, the letter features the typed word report crossed out and replaced with letter in the same ink as the letter is signed Winston S. Churchill. Arthur Henry Limpus (1863-1931) entered the British Navy in 1876 and served much of his early career in the Mediterranean. Limpus came to the attention of Churchill during the 1900 relief of Ladysmith during the Second Boer War. Limpus, then an officer in the Naval Brigades, played a role in the inventive and intrepid effort to bring ships guns overland to attack the Boers' heavy gun emplacements and to provide artillery barrage to cover advancing British infantry. Limpuss actions saw him promoted to Captain. Churchills own actions during the conflict made him a celebrity and helped launch his political career. A little more than a decade later, by 1911, Churchill had become First Lord of the Admiralty and Limpus a rear-admiral. The next year, in May 1912 three months before he wrote this letter to Limpus - Churchill appointed Limpus to head the British naval mission to the Ottoman Empire. Limpus was made a vice-admiral in the Turkish Navy and, in anticipation of the coming war with Germany, tasked with convincing the Ottoman Turks to ally with British interests over those of Germany. This letter is clearly written at the beginning of Limpuss vital embassy. On the same day he wrote this letter to Limpus, Churchill wrote to his counterpart in the Ottoman Government, Navy Minister Mahmud Muhtar Pasha (1867-1935), who is referred to by Churchill as Mahmoud Muktar. Churchill wrote of Limpus I took the greatest personal trouble in selecting Admiral Limpus for service with the Turkish Navy, as I was anxious that you should have at your disposal an officer who would do credit to the reputation of the British Navy I first made his acquaintance 12 years ago in South Africa, where he played a distinguished part. He is a sincere and thoroughly competent officer Likely Limpus could have done little to counter the historic forces that led to Ottoman alignment with Germany in the First World War. Nonetheless, Limpuss alleged competence seems to have been both overestimated and oversold by Churchill. Limpus reported to Churchill on 3 December 1913, saying It may fairly be said that something tangible has been done, and a success scored which should retain a predominant British interest here in naval affairs for manyprobably 30 years. Eight months later, on 2 August 1914 the Ottoman government signed a treaty of alliance with Germany. Limpus became Superintendent of the Malta Dockyard. It appears that the unfortunate Limpuss command of English was no better than his assessment of the prospects for Anglo-Turkish alliance. A 10 December 1913 letter from Limpus drew from Churchill a scathing, detailed criticism of the general style and presentment of Limpuss letters, which Churchill characterized as mere jottings of passing impressions hurriedly put together without sequence, and very often with marked confusion The Ottoman Turks proved at least as much of a miscalculation and career challenge for Churchill as they had been for Limpus. First Lord of the Admiralty from 1911 until 1915, Churchills career was derailed by the disastrous Dardanelles offensive and slaughter at Gallipoli. Scapegoated and forced to resign, Churchill went from the Cabinet to the Front. He spent political exile as a lieutenant colonel of a battalion in the trenches. Before war's end, Churchill was exonerated and rejoined the Government, but despite his political recovery, the stigma of the Dardanelles lingered.

Title: L'Eve Future
Author: Villiers de l'Isle-Adam [Jean-Marie-Mathias-Philippe-Auguste]
Seller: Biblioctopus (United States)
Description: Paris: M. de Brunhoff, 1886. First Edition. 8vo (186x 120mm), pp. [4], iii, 379, [1]. Some soiling, creases, and a couple of short tears, else a very good copy of a scarce book in the original publisher's wrappers. The first novel about an android, and the book that popularized the word itself. A fictionalized Thomas Edison, brooding in his laboratories at Menlo Park, undertakes to build an ideal mechanical woman (Hadaly) for his friend Lord Ewald, whose fiancée is physically irresistible but spiritually vacant. The premise descends from the Pygmalion myth through Frankenstein and forward toward Metropolis, Blade Runner, and Ghost in the Shell, but Villiers's treatment is entirely his own: part metaphysical argument, part Gothic romance, part extraordinarily detailed technical fantasy, the novel dissects its android with a precision that anticipates hard science fiction by decades while embedding the whole enterprise in the Symbolist conviction that the ideal, even when fabricated, is superior to the real. Villiers was a proudly impoverished Breton aristocrat, a friend of Baudelaire and Mallarmé, and a central figure of the Decadent movement. L'Ève future is the first of his two most influential works, the other being the Symbolist drama Axël (1890), which so embodied the movement's inward turn that Edmund Wilson named his landmark study of literary modernism after it. He died in 1889 at fifty, having lived most of his life in destitution, and saw neither book achieve the recognition it deserved. L'Eve future poses questions (about the nature of consciousness, the ethics of creation, the possibility that a manufactured soul might be more authentic than a human one that have only grown more urgent in the century and a half since it was written, and it remains the founding text of a literary tradition that now dominates popular culture.

Author: EPICTETUS — SANCHEZ de las Brozas, Francisco; CITARELLA, Marco Antonio (translators)
Seller: Musinsky Rare Books, Inc. (United States)
Description: Pistoia: Biagioni & Franchi, 1727. 4to (203 x 143 mm). Two parts in one, separately titled and paginated: [32], 115, [1] pages; [10], 88 pages, 1 leaf. Half-title, title with engraved arms of the dedicatee, Eugene-Francis, Duke of Savoy (known as Prince Eugene), engraved plate: a portrait of the translator above his arms and titles, signed by [Giuseppe] Filosi of Venice. Woodcut initials. (A few sheets in part 2 browned.) Contemporary parchment over flexible boards, ms. spine title (soiled, stained, small tear in upper joint). Provenance: Adam Mabellini of Pistoia, purchase note on first title (Ex Libris Adam Mabellini Pistoriensis emit proprio [tre?]), his name repeated on front free endpaper along with pen trials & doodles, and on Spanish half-title; more scribblings on lower endleaves.*** Only Edition of an (indirect) Italian translation of the Enchiridion (Handbook), the abstract of Epictetus’ Discourses, allegedly compiled by his student Arrian. This Italian version by Citarella, duke of Castelvecchio, which seems only to have appeared in this edition, was made from the well-known Spanish translation by Sanchez (1523-1600), celebrated professor of Greek and Latin at Salamanca, which is reprinted in the second part. Citarella’s Italian follows Sanchez faithfully. Each of the short chapters of the Enchiridion is followed by Sanchez’s longer commentary; both parts also preserve Sanchez’s prologue and Vita. Born a slave, and lamed as a boy, Epictetus (55-135 C.E.) brought little new to the teachings of the early Stoics, but he possessed his own method of teaching. “The programme of study and exercises that Epictetus’ students adhered to was in consequence different from the programme that was taught by his predecessors, but the end result, consisting in the special Stoic outlook on oneself and the world at large and the ability to ‘live the philosophic life’, was the same.” (K. Seddon, art., Internet Encylopedia of Philosophy). The present edition may have been used in schools, to judge by the daydreaming scribbles of one Adam Mabellini, but it was not published for that purpose; rather, the translation was a labor of love. In a prefatory note to the reader, Citerella recounts that he had first read Epictetus, in Sanchez’s translation, at a low point in his (privileged) life, while idle on a Tuscan island where he had taken refuge from the “deceptions of this world.” The book (as it often does) opened his mind and revolutionized his attitudes. Wishing that he had read it in his youth, he decided to translate it for others. The preliminaries include 13 unsigned sonnets, attributed in the title to the translator’s brother Niccolò Citarella and “other Tuscan authors.” Citarella seems to have published nothing else. OCLC locates 2 copies outside Italy (Birmingham & Manchester). ICCU ITICCUCFIE�22314; Harman, ed., Contributions toward a bibliography of Epictetus by W. A.

Condition: Very Good
Description: London: Longmans, Green and Co, 1900. First edition. Very Good. First edition, handsomely bound, of Churchill's account of his experiences as a war correspondent in the Second Boer War; "a splendid book both aesthetically and from a literary standpoint, the Ladysmith is one of the most sought-after titles in the canon" (Langworth, p. 54). Octavo (184 x 122 mm). Colour folding map frontispiece, 2 folding maps; 32-page publisher's catalogue at rear. Mid-twentieth-century blue half morocco by Bayntun, spine lettered in gilt, blue cloth sides, marbled endpapers, top edge gilt. Bookplate of John Thoburn Williamson (1907-1958), Canadian diamond magnate who built a significant book collection. Spine sunned with some soiling, very light rubbing. A very good copy. "The volume essentially consists of 27 letters and telegrams to the Morning Post written between 26 October 1899 and 10 March 1900... It is, as Churchill said in his Introductory Note, 'mainly a personal record of my adventures and impressions during the first five months of the African War. It may also be found to give a tolerably coherent account of the operations conducted by Sir Redvers Buller for the Relief of Ladysmith'"(Cohen). A major component is Churchill's imprisonment in a prisoner of war camp and his daring escape, which enthralled readers at the time and helped to cement his reputation as a man of action and character. Cohen A4.1.a; Hackett, South African War Books, p. 2; SABIB I p. 548. Very Good.
