- 1er juin 1893, 11,3x17,7cm, un feuillet. - Lettre manuscrite probablement inédite, rédigée par un secrétaire, datée du 1er juin 1893 et signée par Léopold de Sacher-Masoch à un destinataire inconnu, probablement un avocat. Mention manuscrite de la main de Sacher-Masoch en marge haute gauche de la lettre : «?Répondu le 1 mai 93?». Deux pages rédigées à l'encre noire sur un double feuillet. L'écrivain se prépare à un éventuel procès intenté par sa première femme Wanda, l'inspiratrice de son célèbre roman La Vénus à la fourrure, qui tente de recouvrer ce qui lui est dû et se libérer du fantasme qu'elle avait incarné à travers les uvres de son mari. Wanda, de son vrai nom Angelika Aürora Rümelin, avait signé avec lui le fameux contrat stipulant qu'elle devait se couvrir de fourrure, et le fouetter ainsi vêtue, véritable évangile de ce qui deviendra le masochisme. Malgré cette union sacrée et actée, dès la fin des années 1870, Leopold fut las de la vie avec elle, Wanda étant incapable de combler ses désirs?: «?Courtisane malgré elle?» et «?infirmière?» selon Jean-Paul Corsetti, elle fut, nous dit Gilles Deleuze «?sa compagne à la fois docile, exigeante et dépassée?». Accablé par les difficultés d'argent, il revendit les fameuses fourrures et les robes de sa femme, et leur divorce fut prononcé en 1886. Poursuivie par son alter-ego de Vénus à la fourrure qui avait fait d'elle une Dalila impérieuse et vénale, il semble que Wanda ait voulu poursuivre en justice son ancien mari?: «?Ayant cessé depuis longtemps toute communication avec Madame Wanda de Sacher-Masoch, il m'est impossible de m'entendre avec elle à l'amiable [...] En cas échéant, ce sera contre moi que Mme de Sacher-Masoch pourra tenter un procès?». Le procès est sans aucun doute lié à la sortie de Kassya, un opéra de Léo Delibes sur un livret de Sacher-Masoch adapté par Henri Meilhac et Philippe Gilles, créé à l'Opéra-Comique la même année. Il est possible que Wanda, traductrice des uvres de Masoch pendant ses années de mariage, n'ait pas reçu ses droits de traduction qui lui étaient dus pour Kassya, tiré d'une nouvelle parue dans les Contes galiciens de son mari. Dans le même esprit que ses années de soumission absolue à Wanda, il tient à porter seul le fardeau des accusations de sa femme, moyennant une somme d'argent payée par les autres auteurs de l'opéra (Henri Meilhac et Philippe Gilles)?: «?Je déclarerai dans un acte notariel [sic] que, en touchant la somme dite, je me charge de toute responsabilité vis-à-vis de Mme de Sacher-Masoch?». étrange et pittoresque étape de l'histoire du fondateur du masochisme, encore inconnue de ses biographes.

Sabri Fetah Berkel was a Turkish-Albanian modernist painter; he was one of the most important painters and academic personalities of the last century in Turkey. Berkel was born in Skopje, where, in 1927, he completed high school at a French lyceum. From 1927 to 1928 he studied at an Art School in Belgrade. From 1929-1935 he finished his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts, Florence. Sabri Fetahu Berkel visited his country Albania in 1982 where he met with his family and parents. Berkel died in Istanbul. In the honor of Turkish talented painter Sabri Berkel from Turkey, NASA decided to name the Berkel, or the well-known printmaker, and it is a complex crater that sits inside of the larger Ellington basin that indicates the presence of dark material at depth of its surface.

Hardback, 2 vol., 720 p., 900 colour ill., 230 x 330 mm. ISBN 9781905375851. This new publication constitutes Part Two of the multi-volume Cambridge Illuminations Research Project cataloguing all western illuminated manuscripts in the Fitzwilliam Museum and the Cambridge Colleges. It covers manuscripts produced in Italy and the Iberian Peninsula, ranging from the early Gospels of St Augustine made in sixth-century Rome, through the carefully designed patristic texts from twelfth-century Tuscany and Lombardy, the great law books of thirteenth- and fourteenth-century Bologna, the opulent Books of Hours, elegant Humanistic volumes and enormous Choir Books of the fifteenth century, and finally to the richly decorated and densely ornamented books of sixteenth-century Spain. In addition to the famous treasures, these catalogues include a considerable number of previously unpublished cuttings, among them new attributions to leading artists and exciting discoveries, all of which offer a stimulating source for further research. Every manuscript catalogued is also illustrated, frequently with several images, all reproduced in full colour. Entries for Italian manuscripts are arranged chronologically in the period up to 1200, while manuscripts produced after 1200 are catalogued by region of origin and within that division again by sequence of date. Manuscripts that cannot at present be allocated to a particular region are grouped in a special section, and Spanish books are again catalogued in chronological order. Languages: English.

Review "These volumes triumphantly justify 'paper cataloguing'. [...] The authors and sponsors are to be warmly congratulated and urged to complete a series that makes a fundamental contribution to knowledge." (Catherine Reynolds, in The Burlington Magazine CLIII, March 2011, p. 182) « On ne peut que se réjouir de la qualité de ces deux premiers volumes et souhaiter la parution rapide des tomes suivants. » (A. Châtelet, dans Art et Métiers du Livre 31, Déc 2009-fév 2010, p. 91-92) "The first two beautifully designed volumes of Illuminated Manuscripts in Cambridge have all the indices and finding aids (including an index of biblical and non-biblical iconography) to facilitate further research. They are brimming with ideas, are full of dissertation topics, and are testaments to the bounty ? intellectual and sensuous or even sybaritic ? spread out before students of medieval manuscripts." (Kathryn M. Rudy, in HNA Review of Books) "This updating of the traditional manuscript catalogue is a very useful addition to the scholarship on manuscripts in English collections, in part because of the precision and brevity of the updated information, but especially because of the sumptuous illustrations, which provide the irreplaceable visual context for the textual information the catalogue presents." (Stephen Clancy, in Speculum 86/3, July 2011, p. 789) "The series will be a landmark in manuscript studies, and one can only hope that further support will hasten further projected volumes." (Rowan Watson, in: The Burlington Magazine, vol. CLIV, 2012, p. 847) "Esta calidad editorial y científica, presentes en los demás tomos y volúmenes que conforman la serie Illuminated Manuscripts in Cambridge de Harvey Miller/Brepols, es un excelente modelo a tener en cuenta para la edición de futuros catálogos de manuscritos iluminados." (Isabel Escandell Proust, in: Codex Aquilarensis, 29, 2013, p. 289-304) « (?) un instrument de travail précieux pour le chercheur et l?amateur éclairé. » (Marc Gil, dans Le Moyen Age, 1, 2017, p. 207)
