181743772Foligno: Feliciano Campitelli 1817. Submarine warfare before Fulton First edition to include the section on underwater navigation illustrated with a wonderful etching of a submarine propelled by oars including a cut-away view. Count Gaetano Marchetti Tomassi 1774-1857 a nobleman born in Foligno near Perugia was an amateur scientist. He devised one of several methods of squaring the circle which constitutes the first part of the first treatise of the present book the second part containing a discussion on conical sections. The most interesting part however is the second treatise where the author proposes a new model of submarine moved by the tides and able to submerge and resurface with the use of a mechanism similar to the swimbladder of fish. Marchetti Tomassi claims to have first described this boat in a publication issued in Ancona in 1800 though in a very imperfect form. Apparently a boat built to those specifications was given a trial at Rouen under the eye of Napoleon. Thus Marchetti Tomassi anticipated Fulton at least in the concept of a submarine though he does not appear to have heard of him. Marchetti proposes military applications for his submarine though he has no conception of a torpedo and only mentions the use of classical artillery kept dry in his submarine. Quarto 204 x 144 mm. 6 etched plates. Contemporary bottle green half roan patterned paper boards crudely marbled edges. A little light toning some worming at the spine with trails penetrating through the text-block largely marginal but minor loss to text and plates rear hinge cracked but holding remains very good.

189724<i>This book is over 122 years old. <br />"The Raven"</i> in particular—Poe investigates the loss of ideal beauty and the difficulty in regaining it. These pieces are usually narrated by a young man who laments the untimely death of his beloved. <i>"To Helen"</i> is a three stanza lyric that has been called one of the most beautiful love poems in the English language. The subject of the work is a woman who becomes in the eyes of the narrator a personification of the classical beauty of ancient Greece and Rome. <i>"Lenore"</i> presents ways in which the dead are best remembered either by mourning or celebrating life beyond earthly boundaries. In <i>"The Raven"</i> Poe successfully unites his philosophical and aesthetic ideals. In this psychological piece a young scholar is emotionally tormented by a raven's ominous repetition of "Nevermore" in answer to his question about the probability of an afterlife with his deceased lover. Charles Baudelaire noted in his introduction to the French edition of <i>"The Raven"</i>: "It is indeed the poem of the sleeplessness of despair; it lacks nothing: neither the fever of ideas nor the violence of colors nor sickly reasoning nor drivelling terror nor even the bizarre gaiety of suffering which makes it more terrible." Poe also wrote poems that were intended to be read aloud. Experimenting with combinations of sound and rhythm he employed such technical devices as repetition parallelism internal rhyme alliteration and assonance to produce works that are unique in American poetry for their haunting musical quality. In <i>"The Bells"</i> for example the repetition of the word "bells" in various structures accentuates the unique tonality of the different types of bells described in the poem.Poe's stature as a major figure in world literature is primarily based on his ingenious and profound short stories poems and critical theories which established a highly influential rationale for the short form in both poetry and fiction. Regarded in literary histories and handbooks as the architect of the modern short story Poe was also the principal forerunner of the "art for art's sake" movement in nineteenth-century European literature. Whereas earlier critics predominantly concerned themselves with moral or ideological generalities Poe focused his criticism on the specifics of style and construction that contributed to a work's effectiveness or failure. In his own work he demonstrated a brilliant command of language and technique as well as an inspired and original imagination. Poe's poetry and short stories greatly influenced the French Symbolists of the late nineteenth century who in turn altered the direction of modern literature. It is this philosophical and artistic transaction that accounts for much of Poe's importance in literary history.<br /><br />This book contains the first collection of Poems Poems and Tales.
