Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In very aesthetical modern full morocco in a traditional Ottoman style. Unopened and untrimmed pages, covers (saved in modern binding) stained slightly, also extremities damaged. Otherwise a very good copy. 12mo. (16 x 12 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 119 p. Hegira: 1304 = Gregorian: 1887. Extremely rare first Turkish edition of the comedy of errors by Shakespeare in book form. Since the middle of the 19th-century, Turkish literature has appealed to foreign sources, especially European and Anglo American culture, in order to meet modern Turkey's demands. Shakespeare played a significant role in inspiring and shaping modern Turkish theatre. Shakespearean plays made their official entrance into Turkey during the reform movement of Tanzimat (1839-76) that warmly welcomed translating works from other cultures. European, Greek and Armenian troupes of the Ottoman Empire, as well as travelling Italian troupes, were the pioneers of producing plays from other cultures, yet in their own languages. The Merchant of Venice (1885) and The Comedy of Errors (1886-7) were the earliest translations into Turkey by Hasan Sirri, which had the chance to be published in book form. First translations of Shakespeare's plays were made from French copies. However, Sehv-i mudhik (The Comedy of Errors) was one of the earliest translations directly from English language. The translator of this book, Örikagasizâde Hasan Sirri, (1861-1939) was an administrator and educator who grew up during the reign of Abdulhamid II and was in state service for almost forty years. He was the son of Turkish diwan poet Ahmet Nafiz Pasha and the father of author Nahid Sirri Örik. The Comedy of Errors which he translated by easing or removing prejudiced sentences and words about Turks, Islam and Jews, is of importance in terms of his clear Turkish and careful attention to detail. The Comedy of Errors was the second play of Shakespeare translated, and is one of William Shakespeare's early plays. It is his shortest and one of his most farcical comedies, with a major part of the humor coming from slapstick and mistaken identity, in addition to puns and wordplay. The Comedy of Errors is, along with The Tempest, one of only two Shakespearean plays to observe the Aristotelian principle of unity of time, through which the events of a play should cover a period of 24 hours. It has been adapted for opera, stage, screen and musical theatre numerous times worldwide. In the centuries following its premiere, the play's title has entered the popular English lexicon as an idiom for "an event or series of events made ridiculous by the number of errors that were made throughout".

Dramatiska teatern. Rare first edition. Text in Russian. An English translation was published in 1935. Preface by Abraham Efros. An hommage to Alexander Tairov’s modernist Kamerny Theatre in Moscow with fine drawings of set- and costume design and scenes after photographs from its first 20 years. Alexander Tairov 1885-1950 produced many modern non-russian plays by Berthold Brecht Eugene O’Neill Oscar Wilde and G. B. Shaw and he collaborated with many of the foremost avant-garde artists in cubism constructivism etc. The gouverment closed down the theatre in 1949. Abraham Efros 1888-1954 from Moscow was a translator poet art historian and critic. After 1917 he served on the commission for the protection of artistic and antique treasures in the Russian Soviet Republic and on the boards of among other the Tretyakov Gallery and the GOSET Moscow State Jewish Theater. In the Stalinist purges of the late 1930s Efros was arrested and exiled and in the late 1940s he was ousted from his academic posts. The former owner is probably the Swedish-Norwegian actor and painter Lauritz Falk 1909-90. hardcover

- Nadar, Paris 1875, 10,5x16,5cm, une photographie. - Photographie originale sur papier albuminé, au format carte de cabinet, contrecollée sur carton jaune bordé de rouge de Nadar, avec sa marque au dos, rue d'Anjou St-Honoré. Portrait de l'actrice accoudée, le visage reposant dans le creux de la main, regardant le photographe ou celui qui regarde la photographie, l'air mélancolique. Très belle photographie. Les photographies de Sarah Bernhard sont le plus souvent en costume de scène, jouant la comédie, celles la représentant au naturel, plus anciennes et où elle se trouve plus jeune, sont beaucoup plus rares. L'actrice aura été assez fidèle au photographe car on retrouve plusieurs portraits d'elle de ses débuts jusque vers 1900. Annotation manuscrite au dos. [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION ON DEMAND]
