Description
1922. First Edition. DE BRUNOFF, Maurice, and DE BRUNOFF, Jacques, editors. Collection des plus beaux numéros de Comoedia Illustré et des Programmes consacrés aux Ballets & Galas Russes depuis le début a paris 1909-1921. Paris: M. de Brunoff, [1922]. Small folio, period-style full green morocco, gilt decorated spine and boards, original patterned endpapers, original color pictorial cover illustration laid down internally, uncut. $13,500.First edition of this homage to the Ballets Russes by French publisher de Brunoff, consisting of covers and pages from the French magazine Comoedia Illustré and from Ballets Russes programs, and featuring 42 full-page color plates, 12 two-page color spreads, and hundreds of black-and-white photographs and illustrations depicting sets, costumes, dancers, composers and artists and covering the years 1909 through 1921. Beautifully bound preserving the original pictorial cover illustration and patterned endpapers.""The programmes for the Diaghilev Ballet seasons in Paris and London were published by Maurice de Brunoff. He was the French editor of Comoedia Illustré, probably the greatest of all theatrical magazines. De Brunoff devoted many pages to the early Diaghilev seasons in his magazine. Eventually he began to publish the equally lavish souvenir programmes which contained articles, photographs and reproductions of the designs for the new ballets, all reproduced to the highest quality… They are now highly prized collector's items"" (Victoria & Albert Museum Theatre Collections). Includes illustrations and designs by Bakst, Picasso, and Derain, and photographs of Nijinsky, Pavlova, Rubinstein, Karsavina, and Fokine. ""This deluxe volume is an indispensable source for the best in graphic, stage, and costume design of the period; early photographs of performers attired for their roles; and commentaries on the ballet by Maurice Ravel, Jean Cocteau, Guillaume Apollinaire, M.D. Calvocoressi, and Michel Georges-Michel. Among the elegant drawings and pastels are those by Georges Lepape, Jean Dulac, Georges Tribout, Andre Marty, Jean Cocteau, and Valentine Gross… The drawings and pastels by Valine Gross are especially interesting because the document, in a charming style, Nijinsky's dance interpretations during actual performances before photographs in the theatre became commonplace"" (Roadcap, The Book of Dance in the 20th Century, 28). No articles appear for the years 1916 or 1918, when performances were halted during WWI. An introductory note by dance critic Valérien Svetlov appears before each season's articles. Text in French. Front cover illustration by painter and ballet designer Natalia Gontcharova preserved on the front free endpaper. Just a few programs with a hint of marginal dampstaining to bottom edge. Color plates, spreads, photographs and illustrations bright and beautiful.

Description
Cologne: Arnoldi Mylij, 1593. Second edition. Hardcover. g+. Folio. [12], 286, [30], plus foldout maps. 3/4 calf over paper covered boards with gold lettering on spine; professionally rebacked with raised bands and brown leather title plate. Engraved title-page with images of Moses, Joshua, the Ark of the Covenant being carried through the Jordan river, and Mother Church with a cross. Decorative initials and head and tail pieces. Fascinating second edition of this scarce Biblical atlas, profusely illustrated with 12 folding &/or double-page engraved maps (including a large 2-sheet map of the Holy Land, a large 2-sheet plan of Jerusalem, and 10 maps showing the territories of the Tribes of Israel) by the 16th century German Catholic priest Christian van Adrichem. Adrichem goes alphabetically through the 13 tribes of Israel, listing the locations of the cities within their territory. Also printed together in this volume is Adrichem's “Urbis Hierosolymae,” an alphabetical listing of 270 landmarks in Jerusalem plus an extra 37 miscellaneous places, and his “Chronicon Duplex,” which gives an historical timeline from creation to the year 1585 and a brief year by year history from creation to death of St. John the Evangelist in 109 C.E. Adrichem ends the book with a description of Antichrist, based on Adso's Life of Antichrist. Dedicatory introduction to the pope by Geradus Brunius, who helped publish the book. Brunius laments the fact that, in the “ocean of Germany,” he is surrounded by the “artifices of Satan,” (Protestants) arrayed against the Catholic. Prefaces by Adrichem for each part and a laudatory poem by Jordan Louffii. The printer, Arnold Birkmann, came from a prominent printing family active in Cologne throughout the 16th century, and which played a leading role in the German Counter-Reformation movement. While Protestants are usually given the bulk of the credit for early modern biblical scholarship, this is an example of Catholic biblical scholarship formulated as part of a polemic against Protestantism. Christian van Adrichem's professional training as surveyor and his exhaustive studies of the Bible, the writings of Josephus, and early pilgrim narratives enabled him to produce these most influential Holy Land maps of the sixteenth century without ever having visited the region. Text is in Latin. Boards slightly rubbed. Contemporary inscription on title-page. Heavy age-toning to the first four leaves (however, leaving the text fully and easily readable). Clear water-staining at upper corner of last pages (not affecting text). Several map tears professionally repaired. Binding and interior in overall good+ condition. Reference: Allen Kent, "Encyclopedia of Library and Information Science: Volume 23" pg. 396.

Richmond [Surrey, England]: The Hogarth Press, 1922 First edition, first binding. . Publisher's blue and white patterned cloth, with light blue spine and paper label title to front board and spine. . Octavo. Pages 1-6 are publisher's ads, normally bound at the end. Mild shelf wear to board extremities. Light staining at board edges. Some chipping and staining to spine label. Pencil annotations to text throughout, indicating edits and re-pagination for subsequent edition. Otherwise, pages bright. Archival tape applied to gutter of half-title. A very good copy, with a unique place in Hogarth publication history The present work contains several fragments of works by Dostoevsky: "Stavrogin's Confession" (a chapter from the novel Besy, known in English as Demons); "The Plan of The Life of a Great Sinner," a sketch for a novel that Dostoevsky never completed; and an unpublished chapter from The Possessed. The gathering and publication of these fragments is explained in the Translator's Note and the additional prefatory note "New MSS. Of Dostoevsky," attributed to the Russian Government, which detail the recent discovery of several of Dostoevsky's notebooks in the Russian State Archives. Additionally, the Hogarth collection includes commentary by V, Friche and N. Brodsky (whose remarks were likewise initially published by the Russian Government), as well V. Komarovich, previously published in the periodical Builoe. From the commentary titled "The Unfulfilled Idea" — "An analysis of The Life which reveals the autobiographic substratum lets us see with greater certainty the personal traits in those other novels of Dostoevsky's into which The Life of. Great Sinner split off."

Tokyo: s. n., 1955. Softcover. Three loose sheets, filled recto and verso; 10 x 13; pp. 6; black card stock; right edge unevenly trimmed; various items glued with manuscript captions; one appears to be missing; overall very good condition. A fascinating glimpse into the off-duty life of US soldiers in Japan in the aftermath of the Second World War, the collection features various pamphlets and leaflets, in English and apparently hastily assembled and produced, advertising strip clubs and bars serving the American forces with most of them riddled with grammar and vocabulary errors, for example: "Club Butterfly. Most Best Night Spot in the Tony (Tokyo) Enjoy Your Self! Charming Girl's Waiting for You! The Burlesque Show Several Times Nitely." Also prominently displayed are several cartoons with provocative and risqué captions, a 100-Yen banknote signed by the members of the platoon, photographs including one of a severe-looking Japanese lady subtitled: "Yo - Yo, The Queen of Itazuma." A few postcards and Japanese wine and beer labels round up the archive.

New York: William Hall & Son, 239 Broadway, 1849. Folio. Disbound. 1f. (recto title, verso blank), 3-17, [i] (blank) pp. Lithographed, with "Lith of Sarony & Major, N. Y." to lower inner corner of title. With fine three-quarter-length lithographic portrait of the composer to title. Very slightly worn and browned; some minor showthrough. First American edition, later issue. Doyle-13, p. 264. Offergeld 20. Dedicated to Queen Isabella II of Spain, " 'Bamboula' was the composer's first great success. ... The main theme of 'Bamboula' is based on the folksong 'Quan patate la cuite,' well known in New Orleans, and perhaps brought there by West Indian slaves." Doyle p. 265. Gottschalk was an American composer and pianist. "His considerable reputation as a composer and performer of virtuoso piano music did not long survive his death, but a renewed interest in his life and works began in the 1930s, and he is now generally acknowledged as one of the most significant 19th-century American musicians, particularly for his nationalistic and exotic compositions." Irving Lowens, revised by Frederick Starr and Laura Moore Pruett in Grove Music Online.

Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1912. First edition. INTRODUCTION OF THE "ARMS RACE" METAPHOR FOR COEVOLUTIONARY ADVANCES--BY A FOUNDER OF THE MODERN SYNTHESIS. 12x17 cm hardcover, red cloth binding, illustrated title to cover, frontis figure of Volvox, i-ix, [3], 167 pp, 4 pp publisher's book list. Spine faded, binding tight, text clean and unmarked, very good in custom archival mylar cover. Cited in Reiss & Ruse The New Biology (2023): "The inevitability of biological progress became the leitmotif of all of Huxley's subsequent writings, despite the fact that he tried to remain, at least in part, true to Darwinian mechanism. In The Individual in the Animal Kingdom (1912), he drew an interesting cultural-biological analogy, using the turn-of-the-century naval arms race between Britain and Germany as the example. First, the cultural: "Halfway through the century, when guns had doubled and trebled their projectile capacity, up sprang the 'Merrimac' and the 'Monitor, secure in their iron breast-plates; and so the duel has gone on". Concluding: "Each advance in attack has brought forth, as if by magic, a corresponding advance in defence" Then, the biological: "With life it has been the same: if one species happens to vary in the direction of greater independence, the inter-related equilibrium is upset, and cannot be restored until a number of competing species have either given way to the increased pressure and become extinct, or else have answered pressure with pressure". Adding: "So it comes to pass that the continuous change which is passing through the organic world appears as a succession of phases of equilibrium, each one on a higher average plane of independence than the one before, and each inevitably calling up and giving place to one still higher."

Description
Pittsburgh:: Hunt Botanical Library, 1963., 1963. Hunt Monograph Series, no. 1. 8vo. xi, 391 pp. Illus., index. Light teal gilt-stamped printed wrappers; faded spine, rubbed extremities. Very good. Michel Adanson was an 18th-century French botanist and naturalist who traveled to Senegal to study flora and fauna. He proposed a "natural system" of taxonomy distinct from the binomial system forwarded by Linnaeus. In 1763 he published his Familles naturelles des plantes. In this work he developed the principle of arrangement above mentioned, which, in its adherence to natural botanical relations, was based on the system of Joseph Pitton de Tournefort, and had been anticipated to some extent nearly a century before by John Ray. The success of this work was hindered by its innovations in the use of terms, which were ridiculed by the defenders of the popular sexual system of Linnaeus; but it did much to open the way for the establishment, by means principally of Antoine Laurent de Jussieu's Genera Plantarum (1789), of the natural method of the classification of plants.
