19841121New York: Albondocani Press. 1984. Limited/Numbered Edition. Softcover. Fine. This short play may be viewed as grotesque and horrific. The four unsympathetic characters wade through sadomasochistic relationships of psychological torture and manipulation plus the sexual and other physical abuse of a physically disabled person. In the context of the many miserable and brutal characters of Tennessee Williams' previous plays this may be the culminating expression of Williams' thinking. Tennessee Williams did not publish this in his lifetime possibly because it was too hot for the trade press to touch but through his agent he arranged to have Albondocani Press publish a limited fine press edition. Williams died before this took place and the edition was published posthumously by his estate. This play remains outside of Williams' usual canon and is performed on stage only sporadically and seldom. This is copy 120 of a limited edition of 150 numbered copies. This Small 8vo book is 8" x 6 1/2" unpaginated and 36 pages. Set in Palatino types and printed on Antique Laid paper. Sewn into Swedish marbled French-flapped wraps over stiff black wraps. Printed and bound by Nancy King and William Ferguson founder of both Metacom Press and Halty Ferguson Publishing. The press' single-leaf prospectus is laid in. Both book and prospectus are clean and in Fine condition.; Small 8vo 7½" - 8" tall; 36 pages . Albondocani Press paperback

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In modern, handsome full brown morocco. Foolscap 8vo. (18 x 12.5 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 159 p. Extremely rare first Turkish translation of Macbeth, printed in Ottoman Cairo. Macbeth reflected Abdullah Cevdet's reaction against Hamidian despotism and his love and advocacy of liberty. One must also remember him as one of the founding members of the Party of Union and Progress - a secret organization that conspired to overthrow Abdülhamid's absolutist regime. The argument that Abdullah Cevdet's translation of Hamlet, Julius Caesar and Macbeth reflected his opposition to Abdülhamid II's absolute monarchy could be justified with the fact that the themes of the translated plays were perceived by the political authorities as threatening since they were about the murder of kings and heads of state. In Abdullah Cevdet's view, Macbeth is famous as a drama of "ambition for status" (hirs-i cah). Abdullah Cevdet was an Ottoman-born Turkish intellectual and physician of Kurdish ethnic descent, and one of the founders of the Committee of Union and Progress (CUP). In 1908, he joined the Democratic Party that later on merged with the Freedom and Accord Party in 1911. He was also a translator, radical free-thinker, and ideologist of the Young Turks until 1908. The son of a physician, and himself a graduate from the Military College in Constantinople as an ophthalmologist, Cevdet, initially a pious Muslim, was influenced by Western materialistic philosophies and came to oppose institutionalized religion but thought that "although the Muslim God was of no use in the modern era, the Islamic society must preserve Islamic principles." He published the periodical Içtihat from 1904 to 1932, of which articles he used to promote his modernist thoughts. He was arrested and expelled from his country several times due to his political activities and lived in European cities including Vienna, Geneva and Paris. His poetry was linked with the Symbolist movement in France and he received accolades from leading French authors like Gustave Kahn. (Source: DR. ABDULLAH CEVDET'S TRANSLATIONS (1908-1910): THE MAKING OF A WESTERNIST AND MATERIALIST "CULTURE REPERTOIRE" IN A "RESISTANT" OTTOMAN CONTEXT; Ayluçtarhan, Sevda). "Between 1908 and 1910, Abdullah Cevdet produced a large oeuvre of translations, including four translations of Shakespeare's tragedies: The translations of Hamlet and Julius Caesar (translated by Cevdet as Jül Sezar) were published in 1908, the same year as the declaration of the Second Constitution. Macbeth, translated by Cevdet as Makbes, was published in the following year. [.] Nonetheless, Abdülhamid II seemed to be even less tolerant of the dissemination of Hamlet, Macbeth, and Julius Caesar, since they were all about unjust rulers who were executed in the end. It is not surprising that the performances of these plays became subject to strict censorship in the Ottoman lands and banned (Paker 1986: 91). This could be shown as a reason why Abdullah Cevdet was able to publish the translations of these plays only after 1908, though he had finished translating Hamlet in 1902, Julius Caesar and Macbeth in 1904, and Romeo and Juliet in 1905 (Süssheim 1987). As Abdullah Cevdet was a planner of culture, his literary translations cannot merely be judged on an "aesthetic" level. It will be discussed in this chapter that Abdullah Cevdet's translations of Hamlet, Julius Caesar and Macbeth could be read as critical texts directed against Abdülhamid II's absolutist regime. [.] Due to the fact that the selection of source language and culture is an important factor in accounting for any kind of "translation policy", Abdullah Cevdet's selection of both these instruments needs to be taken into account (Toury 2000: 202).
