Iashvili issue 3 with monochrome illustrations by Goncharova and Kruchenykh. An excellent complete set of the very scarce avant garde periodical 'Kuranty'.The short-lived literary and artistic periodical 'Kuranty' produced in Tbilisi during the Russian Civil War features contributions from many of the most important Russian and Georgian avant garde figures of the time: Alexei Kruchenykh and Igor Terent'ev contributed a large body of material but the contributions of Kyril Zdanevich the editor Boris Korneev Nikolai Sudeikin Tatiana Vechorka Rafalovich and others cannot be overlooked. Natalia Goncharova's 'Portrait of A. Kruchenykh' is reproduced in the final issue together with portraits by Kruchenykh himself.This Tbilisi-produced 'Kuranty' is not to be confused with the review 'Kuranty' published in Kiev in the same year and also of considerable rarity.'Kuranty' is extremely scarce and we can locate no complete sets in libraries although a facsimile is held and Johns Hopkins holds a copy of issue 1; auction records feature one complete copy only that sold at Christie's in 2014 as well asone other incomplete set also Christie's in 2007.

184247346Paris.: J. Hetzel et Paulin Editeurs. 1842. Original publisher's maroon morocco boards ruled in blind with matching gilt vignettes to front and rear boards and spines titles gilt to spines cream moiré endpapers two original part wrappers retained a.e.g. 2 vols. Large 8vo. 270 x 194 mm. Each vol. with half-title title and frontispiece and a total of 199 hors-texte monochrome plates as well as numerous monochrome vignettes all engraved by Brevière after Grandville. The first edition of Grandville's anthropomorphic masterpiece in the deluxe publisher's binding.This exceptional copy bound in full maroon morocco features all of the plates in the first issue as per Carteret and the first issue of the binding incorporating the special tools after Grandville's designs but without the additional decorative tools to the corners of the central panels of the front boards. The legend 'Badigeonographie générale des murailles de la France et de l'étranger' to the frontispiece later removed by the censor is present and four of the original yellow paper part wrappers the two volumes were issued in 100 parts are retained. Grandville's inspirational illustrations were engraved on wood by Brévière coted by Ray as 'the one craftsman whose renderings of his work Grandville refused to criticize'.The twenty-nine tales by various authors of the Scènes de la Vie Privée et Publique des Animaux are accompanied by J. J. Grandville's wonderful anthropomorphic illustrations. The tales themselves are by the foremost authors of the day with four by Honoré de Balzac Peines de Coeur d'une Chatte Anglaise Guide-Ane à l'Usage des Animaux qui Veulent Parvenir aux Honneurs Voyage d'un Lion d'Afrique à Paris and Les Amours de Deux Bêtes as well as tales by George Sand Voyage d'un Moineau à Paris Paul Bernard Les Animaux Médecins Charles Nodier Jules Janin Paul de Musset and so on. The majority of the stories and text is by P.-J. Stahl who wrote the Preface to the first volume. In contrast to all of the other plates the final plate in volume two depicts human figures - the authors themselves - as animals in the Jardin-des-Plantes in Paris regarded by spectating animals while being sketched by Grandville himself.'Through Grandville's animals Hetzel and his colleagues the authors offered a witty and telling commentary on contemporary politics and personalities. Bouchot described the result as the best satire on French manners during the middle of the century . Returning to the 'têtes-de-bêtes' of 'Les métamorphoses du jour' Grandville provided 323 illustrations about two-thirds of which are full-page plates . '.

Dated 30th November 1980 and addressed to Hodgkin's wife Marni it thanks her and Alan for their recent hospitality and recommends the book as fine remembrance of times past. Publisher's blue cloth with silver titles to spine and grey endpapers. With the blue dust-jacket priced at $14.50. Perutz's blue ink ownership to fly-leaf. Top 1/4 of letter heavily toned. All books are very good first editions showing light to moderate handling and lacking jackets except where stated otherwise. The dissertation is housed in a contemporary back ring binder in poor condition with the spine and lower board almost detached. The leaves themselves are a little toned and handled to edges but otherwise undamaged. This collection of books and papers many with Hodgkin's ownership and warm inscriptions from the authors constitutes a significant selection from his personal working library which was evidently disbursed after his death along with his Nobel Prize which was notably sold for $795500 in 2015. Alan Lloyd Hodgkin inherited a strong work ethic from his Quaker parents who suffered abuse for their pacifist stance during the First World War. He did well both at Gresham's School in Norfolk a prize book from his school years is included here and at Trinity College Cambridge where he won a scholarship and later a research Fellowship. Particularly significant books include those by A.V. Hill 1886-1977 and E.D. Adrian 1889-1977 Nobel Prize-winning Cambridge dons of the previous generation; by John Eccles 1903-1997 with whom he shared the 1963 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine; and a retrospective volume on the life of Neuroscientist Keith Lucas 1879-1916 who had known Hodgkin's father George 1880-1918 at Cambridge. Hodgkin's research Fellowship dissertation on the electrical transmission of nerve impulses is by far the most important item here being a unique typescript copy showing the wear of a lifetime of constant use to the ring binder. A.V. Hill sat on the panel which granted Hodgkin the Fellowship at the remarkably young age of 22 and immediately sent a copy of the dissertation on to Herbert Gasser President of the Rockefeller Institute who then invited Hodgkin to study at the institute in 1937. This early work was pivotal to the development of his later research with Andrew Huxley 1917-2012 in which they established how nerve impulses are exchanged between cells leading to a joint Nobel Prize. Of great interest also is a personal notebook from the end of his career stuffed with personal notes and "back of a fag packet" calculations. The bound collection of off-prints is not unique with a more complete collection recently sold by Christie's and further odd volumes currently available but it is certainly rare. Taken together this collection which includes a copy of the book containing Hodgkin's 1963 Nobel lecture and a very rare volume on family history compiled partly by his grandfather Thomas 1831-1913 constitutes an important personal archive which should be of interest to scholars. 1907-1988 unknown

They provide insights into Roman and Greek life but often are also timeless observations in their own right." Wikipedia. <br><br>This particular edition contains 77 essays including the psuedo-Plutarchian work "On the Names of Rivers and Mountains" not typically found in the Moralia and lacks "Summary of the Birth of the Spirit" as well as "Sayings of the Spartan Women." Prefaces and dedicatories are authored as follows: Matthew Morgan for Volume 1; George Tullie for Volume 2; Robert Midgley for Volume 4; Samuel White for Volume 5. <br><br>The English translation "Plutarch's Morals" 1684-1690 was a collaborative effort undertaken by a host of scholars. Their goal was to outdo the work of Philemon Holland who first translated the Moralia into English in 1603. As Matthew Morgan's preface to the first volume makes clear the entire Moralia was intended to be translated/published by the end of a single year 1684-5. It was also meant to only be 4 volumes altogether. But the collaborative translation ended up taking over 6 years and was 5 volumes when completed. The first 3 volumes were published by John Gellibrand 1684-1685 and the last 2 by R. Bentley 1690. The order of each treatise although not in the order classically placed in Plutarch's Moralia is according to the completion of each translation as they came to the publishers' hands. <br><br>William W. Goodwin upon revising the 5th Edition of this translation in 1870 had this to say in his preface "The original editions.contained translations of every grade of merit. Some of the essays were translated by eminent scholars like William Baxter nephew of Richard Baxter and Thomas Creech.But a large number including some of the longest and most difficult treatises were translated by men whose ignorance of Greek - or whatever language was the immediate ancestor of their own version - was only one of their many defects as translators. Notwithstanding all the defects of the translation.it is beyond all question a more readable version than could be made now; and the liveliness of its style will more than make up to most readers for its want of literal correctness." <br><br>A most rare and attractive set one of great historical value. <br><br>PLEASE NOTE: This set will arrive with "signature required" upon delivery.

1950SET65-66-B-1New York : Reinhold Publishing Co. 1950-73. Leather. Fine. 11.5" by 9". Various. A continuous 23 year run of selected sections from one of the 20th century's most significant architectural magazines uniformly bound by Bayntun Riviere of Bath. The sections included from the magazine are those concerning the design of either real planned or hypothetical buildings. Sections such as the 'newsletter' or 'manufacturers' literature' are not included. Thus there is a streamlined focus on design content. The relevant sections from each month's magazine are bound together by year with each volume running from January to December as one would expect. The pagination is truncated as a result: for most months the pagination will run from roughly 50-120. Thus there are twelve separately paginated sections in each volume corresponding loosely to those figures. Replete with illustrations both photographic and draughted. Colour photos become more frequent from the 1957 volume onwards. There is a general American focus but the wider world is not neglected. Every imaginable sort of building is covered from schools to hotels to offices and houses. Contemporary design is rigorously and intelligently discussed in the accompanying articles which situate the featured buildings within their wider social and practical context. New materials and technology are explored and ambitious theoretical designs are analysed. The architectural discussions by their very nature provide a fascinating angle on the wider cultural economic and political world of their particular year. For example one will find the design and utility of bomb shelters discussed at the height of the cold war and then 'omnibuildings' eagerly anticipated in the late 60s. In 1969 there is a feature titled 'Machine Art Past and Technology Art Present' while in 1970 the influence of modern technology on the design of movie theatres is explored. A beautifully bound unparallelled primary source for the history of architecture as well as for socio-economic history in the mid to late twentieth century. In half morocco by Bayntun Riviere. Externally excellent with just the occasional light mark to the boards. The 1955 volume has a small bookseller's stamp to the front pastedown. Internally generally clean and bright and firmly bound Fine Reinhold Publishing Co. hardcover

Bazooka’s first magazine ‘Bulletin Périodique’ was immediately forbidden to minors.

185911196London: Gray's Inn. London Gray's Inn 1859-1860. Manuscript. Hardback. A fantastic manuscript comprising 17 original unpublished short stories and poems with elements of fantasy and the supernatural. Appears to be the sole surviving artefact of the Gurgoyle Club a group of Victorian barristers meeting at chambers in the Inns of Court. All seventeen contributions twelve stories three poems and two songs apparently unpublished. All but a couple of the contributors were distinguished men four feature in the Oxford DNB with the Cambridge friends Ralston and Munby in particular noted for their literary achievements. The ten contributors are: Richard Butt; Victor Chevalley de Rivaz 1833-1895 writer of cookery books two stories; Charles Wycliffe Goodwin 1817-1878 Egyptologist; William Henfrey two stories; Sir James Charles Mathew 1830-1908 judge; Arthur Joseph Munby 1828-1910 civil servant poet and diarist poem and song; Charles Spencer Perceval 1829-1889 F.S.A. Secretary to the Commissioners of Lunacy; William Ralston 1829-1889 writer and translator reported to have become insane 'from too close a study of the mysterious Whitechapel murders' story poem and song; John Lewis Roget 1828-1908 son of the compiler of the 'Thesaurus' two stories; Charles Mahon Tyndall d.1881 barrister two stories. Most of the contributors were born in the late 1820s or early 1830s and several were educated at Cambridge. The collection is entertaining and flashes of humour abound but horror and fantasy predominate. For example the poem 'Ye Pot of Porter' Ralston finds himself standing beside "the grave of one I loved: .The coffin bursts & from its reeking dark Rolls out a hideous mass of writhing flesh - She haunts me with her eyes: their glaring orbs Flash in the cornice dance around the walls And mock me through the trellice of the grate."And in Goodwin's 'Chalybaeus' the narrator writes of a baby: "The poor thing screamed & struggled as I took it up but I only hugged it the tighter and when I placed it in the arms of its mother it had ceased to scream; to my horror I found that it was a mere charred and roasted mass. In the heat of the moment I had not perceived that my arms had become redhot & the child had perished in my too ardent embrace." And in 'The Devil' Mathews writes: ".the demon sprang towards me & burst into a roar of fiendish laughter. He stood before me for an instant with his knees slightly bent & a hand resting on each: while his eyes transfixed me. An awful change rapidly came over him; his garments shrunk off him like burned skin off an eel; a hideous green cuticle covered with scales glistened upon him; a lurid flame burst out of a saucepan on his head; wings grew from his arms down his sides and to my unspeakable anguish he commenced tumbling in all directions round me. I lost all consciousness. Presently a horrible noise filled the chamber; I heard a voice like thunder consigning me to damnation. I felt that if I did not make a final effort & call the police I should be lost." 4to volume leaf dimensions 25 x 19.5 cm: 338 unnumbered pages. The entire volume is written out in the same neat hand only Roget's first contribution carries any emendation. The title two half-titles and the title of each piece are written out in red with initials illuminated in gold blue and white. Each page is enclosed in a red border.
