Description
S. l. (St. Petersburg): lit. Bogdanova Ertelev, 1899. Hardcover. First edition presumed, n. d. (ca 1899 - the National Library of Russia has a record of a similar title, but with a shorter text); 11 1/2 x 7 1/2; pp. [1], 2-169, [9], 3-160; 1/4 polished brown calf and textured paper over boards; gilt title to spine; 1"- piece of leather to head of spine chipped; a few rubbed spots along edges; text typed and lithographed; several manuscript notes and underlined passages in black, blue, and red pencil; very good condition. Aleksandr Ivanovich Vvedenskii (1856 - 1925) was one of the most prominent neo-Kantian and Platonist philosophers of his time in Russia and was also the Chair of the Philosophical Society of St. Petersburg and a Professor and Head of the Department of Philosophy at the St. Petersburg University. Interestingly enough, his name has stirred quite a controversy in connection with Ayn Rand's "The Russian Radical." Although another Platonist and himself a former student of Vvedenskii, Nikolai Losskii (1870 - 1965), graced the cover of the book and was acknowledged as her philosophy professor at Petrograd (St. Petersburg) University, it has been, allegedly, Vvedenskii she described as her teacher. A passage in the book read: "He was a famous Platonist...He was an old man by that time, white hair...And he had a reputation of, to begin with, being contemptuous of all students, but particularly women students. And he despised the fact that women were now admitted." Although Losskii was in fact teaching at the time, he was not very old and did not have white hair. He was also never known to be a male chauvinist and did not terrorize his students. Furthermore, he had been sick and missed most of the two semesters in 1921-1922 (the time Ayn took the class). On the other hand, the description of the obnoxious professor fit Vvedenskii perfectly. Even Losskii in his memoirs wrote Vvedenskii hated him as much as he hated all his other students, disagreed with his master's thesis, and had tried to prevent his advance to a full professorship.

Description
New York: Dutton, 2025. First printing. Hardcover. New/New. 512pp. Octavo. [23.5 cm]. 1/5 Light blue paper over boards. From the publisher: "In this profoundly human and moving narrative, the bestselling author of The World Without Us returns with a book ten years in the making: a study of what it means to be a human on the front lines of our planet’s existential crisis. His new book, Hope Dies Last, is a literary evocation of our current predicament and the core resolve of our species against the most precarious odds we have ever faced. To write this book, Weisman traveled the globe, witnessing climate upheaval and other devastations, and meeting the people striving to mitigate and undo our past transgressions. From the flooding Marshall Islands to revived wetlands in Iraq, from the Netherlands and Bangladesh to the Korean DMZ and to cities and coastlines in the U.S. and around the world, he has encountered the best of humanity battling heat, hunger, rising tides, and imperiled nature. He profiles the innovations of big thinkers—engineers, scientists, conservationists, economists, architects, and artists—as they conjure wildly creative, imaginative responses to an uncertain, ominous future. At this unprecedented point in history, as our collective exploits on this planet may lead to our own undoing and we could be among the species marching toward extinction, they refuse to accept defeat. Hope Dies Last fills a crucial gap in the global conversation: Having reached a point of no return in our climate confrontation, how do we feel, behave, act, plan, and dream as we approach a future decidedly different from what we had expected?
