Description
New York: Philosophical Library, 1963. First Edition. Very good plus in a very good minus jacket.. Signed first edition of this important account of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising from one of its few leaders to survive. Wdowinski was a founder of Betar and a leader of the Irgun Zva'i Leumi during the Ghetto revolt, an experience recounted here along with the author's experience both in pre-war Poland as a politician/activist (he was an active member of the Warsaw underground and was a member of the advisory body of the Zydowskie Towarzystwo Opieki Spolecznej/Jewish Mutual Aid Society) and in the labor and concentration camps after the defeat of the uprising. Wdowinski later emmigrated to the US and taught psychology at the New School in New York City. In 1961 testified at the trial of Adolf Eichmann. He died in 1970. Widely considered one of the most authoritative account of the Warsaw revolt, it is decidedly scarce signed. Octavo. Original red cloth in printed dust jacket. 123 pages. Jacket price-clipped with some moderate edge-wear. Some small chips to head and tail of dust jacket spine. Spot of soil to rear panel. Tape residue (unobtrusive) to front and rear flaps. Book has slight lean. Else sound and clean throughout. INSCRIBED, dated (1969), and signed by author Wdowinksi to front endpaper. "With compliments of the author" stamped and corner of envelope with Wdowinksi's return address taped, also to front endpaper. Loosely laid in are two photo-mechanically reproduced articles by/about the Wdowinksi.

Description
Venice: apud Ioannem Hertz, 1695. Hardcover. Very Good. Folio (330 x 220mm). [4], 616pp., [30]; [1], 92pp. (i. e. 90). Copper-plate engraved printer’s device of Hertz to tiltle. Title printed in red and black. Double column. Contemporary vellum. “Ex Libris Prosperi Selli Medicinae et Chirurgiae” above pictorial wood-engraved ex-libris by Leo Wyatt for Lord Norwich on pastedown. Dolaeus’ surgical encyclopedia, his ‘opus magnus’ which was widely popular. Reissued several times as in this copy of 1695, the scarce first edition was printed in 1605. Dolaeus belonged to the iatrochemical school of Paracelsus and van Helmont (a branch of both chemistry and medicine). His opus magnus was this surgical encyclopedia, and as indicated on the title, is based on the principles of Galen, Paracelsus, van Helmont, Willis, Sylvius and Descartes. The encyclopedic entries deal with all manner of surgical diseases, including hernia, cancer, abscesses, ulcers, gangrene and afflictions of the sense organs, teeth and genitalia. A physician to the German nobility, Dolaeus became rich and famous through his secret “liquor antivariolosus” (presumably a remedy for smallpox); he also anticipated Cheyne in his dietary treatment of gout. Part [2] has special title page: Johannis Dolaei ... Tractatus varii. Page [31] part [2] has half title: Joh. Jacobi Waldschmidt ... et Johannis Dolaei ... Dissertationes epistolicae de rebus medicis et philosophicis. NLM/Krivatsy 3315

[i] (title), [i] (blank), [i] ("Dramatis Personae"), [i] (blank), [5]-250 pp. Photographic transfer from engraved plates. Printer's mark to lower right corner of p. 250: "Stich und Druck von C. G. Röder G.m.b.H., Leipzig." Text in German. With illustration by Lovis Corinth to upper half of page [5].

Small abrasion to upper edge of first three leaves; Lischer handstamp trimmed. First Edition, probable first issue (without the additional plate numbers to foot of page [3] and also without the statement "Aufführungsrecht vorbehalten" to foot of page [5]). Trenner 223. Mueller von Asow p. 409. The present copy was apparently used by a rehearsal accompanist. Elektra was first performed on 25 January 1909 at the Königlichen Opernhaus in Dresden under Ernst von Schuch. "[Elektra] ... marked the beginning of [Strauss's] artistic association with Hugo von Hofmannsthal, whom he had first met in Berlin in 1899. Having seen Reinhardt's riveting production of Hofmannsthal's Elektra in the autumn of 1905, Strauss was convinced the play would make a compelling opera. Not entirely sure he should compose consecutive tragedies, he nonetheless gave in to Hofmannsthal's pleading and vigorously began composing Elektra in the summer of 1906. As he had with Oscar Wilde's Salome, he set the play to music, which was finished in 1908 and given its première in 1909 as part of a Strauss opera festival in Dresden ... Elektra failed to outshine her flashier sister, but confirmed Strauss's pre-eminence among German opera composers." Bryan Gilliam in Grove Music Online.
