19424754Washington DC: El Coordinador de Asuntos Interamericanos 1942. Very good. Pictorial lithograph 20 x 14.25 inches printed in red gray yellow and black. Minor surface wear mild creasing light dust-soiling a few pinholes. A rare poster issued by the Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs CIAA during World War II attempting to sway public opinion in Latin America to the Allied side. The CIAA was established by executive order in July 1941 in order to distribute news advertising film reels and more to and from Latin America to counter Italian and German propaganda campaigns in the region. The text of the present poster translates from the Spanish as "Freedom of Speech. One of the four freedoms for which the Allies are fighting." The central image features an open-mouthed face breaking open a large swastika which is itself on fire. A mildly subtle message that free speech destroys fascism. The poster was designed by noted Russian-American graphic designer and photographer Alexey Brodovitch whose printed credit appears at top right; Brodovitch is most well-known for his art direction of Harper's Bazaar from 1934 to 1958. A powerful visual display with only one copy reported in OCLC at MOMA though we also find two other institutional holdings at the United States Holocaust Museum and the Hoover Institute.

198759799New York: Curbstone Press 1987. First English Language Edition. First printing. Octavo. Tan cloth hardcover; dustjacket; xviii19-503pp. Inscribed on front flyleaf: "Para la camarada Kendra Alexander y adelante con la lucha solidaria con el pueblo Salvadoreño y Centroamerica" signed by Miguel Mármol dated 1988. Mild bumps to board corners a bit of rippling to cloth on spine still Near Fine a slightly faded but still Near Fine dustwrapper. <br /> <br /> A terrific association copy inscribed by Miguel Mármol to American communist and civil rights activist Kendra Alexander. Mármol 1905-1993 founding father of the Salvadoran Communist Party in 1930 and a leading figure of the Salvadoran worker-revolutionary movement for over five decades told his story over the course of several weeks in 1966 to the Salvadoran communist poet Roque Dalton. In his introduction Dalton who was assassinated in 1973 describes the experience as "one of the greatest satisfactions of my life" and the result was indeed one of the most popular and important works of Latin American revolutionary literature of the decade - Mármol's tumultuous life most of it spent in exile came both to exemplify and inspire the revolutionary movement in El Salvador and Central America.<br /> <br /> Though Miguel Mármol was first published in 1972 and went into numerous subsequent printings in Cuba and the Soviet Union there was no English-language translation until this 1987 edition from the small Latin-American publisher Curbstone. The cloth issue is hard to find and inscribed copies are rare; this a compelling association copy inscribed to the American civil rights leader and Communist Party leader Kendra Alexander 1945-1993 perhaps best-remembered as a close associate of Angela Davis whose Defense Committee she co-chaired during Davis's 1971 conspiracy trial. 59799.

19451665Buenos Aires: Republica Argentina Ministerio de Guerra 1945. Very Good. 33 cm. Typed letter signed by Perón on recto with typed response to his recommendations dated July 30 1945 on verso; corresponding stamps to both sides. Light edgewear; vertical creasing and two rough holes to left margin. A bureaucratic letter from Perón referencing a case brought against an unidentified soldier dressed in civilian clothing who appeared at the home address of one Captain Dumon and either requested or was given 20 pesos for a particular but unstated purpose. The soldier failed to deliver the money to the third party for whom it was intended and the captain filed a complaint with the military authorities; this went to the Auditor General and triggered an investigation. However the captain failed to show up to identify the soldier in question and because the soldier was in civilian clothing the case was referred to civilian authorities.It is not entirely clear to us why Perón was involved in this seemingly minor case but it appears that he was brought in as part of the investigation and that this letter is his department's response. He became President of Argentina a little less than a year later. Republica Argentina Ministerio de Guerra hardcover
1923List2852Mexico City 1923. Double-sided 8 ½ x 11 inch sheet handwritten with signature. Stained and slightly torn at fold. Excellent. Julio Enrique Ãvila 1892–1968 was a Salvadoran science professor journalist and poet. He is best known for his poetry anthology El mundo de mi jardÃn 1927. Offered here is a review of MarÃa Teresa Montoya in a production of Linares Rivas’ La Mala Ley at Mexico City’s Ideal Theater in 1923. In it Ãvila is captivated not by the play or Montoya’s performance but by the theater’s blind pianist. Translated from Spanish the review reads in part:<br /> <br /> “Staggering slightly and supported by a companion's shoulder a pale introspective young man makes his way between the seats. His hair is striking illuminated by a serene sadness and bears the color of dusk—as if the last ray of sunlight that once shone for him remained trapped within it… for him who is blind completely blind!<br /> <br /> “The audience claps impatiently… And he—who knows nothing of impatience—for whom time is endless who knows no early or late cannot understand this restless eagerness to push minutes forward this relentless dissatisfaction this desperate craving to experience everything—both suffering and joy—within the brevity of a lifetime. .<br /> <br /> “He must be a dreamer whose illusions lie far beyond reach a man of fantasy who cannot grasp his dream… His sensitive hands move over the keys as if searching for a path for a thread of melody to carry them away… They wander gathering jasmine in a harmonious garden to make an offering… They are like fledgling birds that have mistaken the moon bathing in the pond for their mother… And they follow it endlessly yet never reach it… and weep because they have been left alone… .<br /> <br /> “And through the music my soul has longed to embrace the soul of that lonely man that artist who dwells in sound who builds palaces and horizons out of melodies… The soul of that pale withdrawn young man who knows nothing of impatience for whom there is no early or late.â€<br /> <br /> Overall a striking work by a significant figure in Latin American literature. unknown

1713AQ15276Londini i.e. London: Apud R. & J. Bonwicke et al. 1713. 38 184pp 148. With an engraved frontispiece. Handsomely bound in contemporary richly gilt-tooled black morocco A.E.G. Lightly rubbed. Marbled endpapers Recent bookplate of Robert J. Hayhurst to FEP loss to upper corner of front blank fly-leaf early inked inscription of 'John Murray / April 1726' to recto. An early eighteenth-century Latin edition of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. The translation was completed by Jersey-born Anglican clergyman Jean Durel 1625-1683 who had been appointed Chaplain of the Stuart Court's French congregation at the Savoy and also held the monopoly for printing the French translation of the new authorised Liturgy. Considered eminently superior to the latter this translation mined the Sarum Missal and Breviary as a source for amongst others the canticles and psalms included here. The delay of seven years between the passing of the Act of the Uniformity which made use of the Book of Common Prayer compulsory in Anglican church services and the first publication of this translation in 1669 suggests that the demand for Latin editions had waned since Tudor days.

1400ABC_48074Northern Germany 1400. 8vo. Early 19th-century gold-tooled vellum showing a gold-tooled floral frame on both boards with a leather closing tie on the front gold-tooled board edges gilt edges. Written in Latin on relatively thin parchment leaf 11.5 x 8.5 cm text block 7.8 x 5.2 cm in a gothic hand "semi-textualis" in one column of 17 lines per page using black/dark brown ink. The manuscript is rubricated throughout with a 3-line red and blue initial at the start of each part and 2- or 1-line lombards alternating in red and blue at the start of each smaller section ruled in pencil. 131 ll. This small prayer and hymn book which was likely made in Northern Germany can be related to the veneration of Saint Joseph which was popular in the 15th century. The manuscript was meant for personal use by a layperson either during mass or at home. It includes the verses of Saint Bernard a short text by Jean Gerson 1363-1429 hymns and prayers for the Elevation and the Eucharist hymns and prayers relating to Easter Pentecost and the Feast of Corpus Christi prayers to the archangels John the Baptist and Francis and Clare of Assisi and suffrages addressed to various saints including Saint Joseph Saint Joachim Saint Anne Saint Stephen Saint Onuphrius and Saint Maurice.Personal prayer books like the present work were very popular in the late Middle Ages as they allowed laypeople to develop a routine of personal devotion. These works were often adapted to the needs and wishes of the owner and can therefore offer a lot of insight into their beliefs. The present work is somewhat unusual because it places more focus on Joseph than on Mary. A large portion at the end is made up of the suffrages or short prayers to various saints. The suffrages were always in order of importance starting with the Trinity and Mary and ending with female martyrs. However in the present manuscript Mary is not included in the suffrages while Joseph is one of the first to be mentioned even before the Apostles. In addition Joseph is described as "nutritoris domini" English: nurturer of the Lord which is what he was called by those who worshipped him.The present manuscript offers a unique insight into the spread of the Cult of St. Joseph and what his veneration might have looked like in daily life. A complete list of contents is available upon request.With a manuscript owners inscription on the front paste-down some pencil annotations on the front paste-down and some loose paper scraps showing manuscript prayers after leaf 131v. The vellum on the binding is artificially darkened and the closing tie on the back board is missing. Quires a-e8 the first three leaves of quire f and possibly a leaf in quire k are lacking otherwise the text is complete according to the catchwords between the present quires. With a small hole on leaf 3 with partial loss of one letter portions of text primarily rubrication have been crossed out on leaves 8 15r 26 28r 33v 35v and 36r the ink on some of the leaves is rubbed.

1544321627Wittenberg Germany: Veit Kreutzer 1544. Hardcover. Very Good. Wittenberg: Veit Kreutzer 1544 German edition of Melanchthon's Loci Communes first published in Latin in 1521 as "Loci communes or Loci communes rerum theologicarum seu hypotyposes theologicae" Latin for Common Places in Theology or Fundamental Doctrinal Themes. Very good. Pages of the text are numbered entirely in roman numerals to page CCCLIII. With an unnumbered register index of 23 pages. Beautiful contemporary stamped ivory vellum veneer boards with a set of elegant silver clips. No front endpaper. The copy bears an early bookplate "Ex bibliotheca Gust. Ad. Hauseri theol et philos. stud. Cl nr" inside the front board. Light pencil signatures from the 19th century trace the stewardship of Ole Lokensgaard 1854-1931 Granite Falls Minnesota who came to the US in 1857. The family was associated through his son Gerhard W. Lokensgard with St. Olaf College in Northfield. It has been held by the family through 3 generations. The Loci Communes evolved with the reform movement. This 1544 edition is translated by Justus Jonas into German based on Melanchthon's 1542 revision. Title in English: "The Heubtartike Christian Literature/ drawn together/ By Philippum Melanthon/ called in Latin/ Loci Communes Theologici. Germanized by Justum Jonam/Doctor/ and in the 1542nd year/ By Philip. Melanth. checked again and improved." The Loci Communes evolved with the movement. Philipp Melanchthon 1497 – 1560 was a German reformer a collaborator with Martin Luther and part of the Wittenberg team that established the foundation of the Protestant Reformation. Melanchthon was its first systematic theologian and an intellectual leader of the Lutheran Reformation who with Luther was a primary founder of Lutheranism. Loci Communes was Melanchthon's Magnum Opus. "Melanchthon points out that he wrote the Loci Communes to encourage people to bypass extra-biblical sources and go straight to scripture. He does not believe it makes sense to try to integrate philosophy with the interpretation of the Holy Scriptures. Melanchthon berates the scholastic methodology of dialectic. He discusses the skewing of scripture that those who employ such methodology foisted upon the interpretation of scripture". The colleagues that Luther assembled in Wittenberg’s theological faculty formed the nucleus of his team. This included Justus Jonas 1493 –1555 who served in addition to roles as advisor and legal expert as translator of the works of Luther and Melanchthon from Latin into German or German into Latin. In the 16th century intellectuals across Europe spoke Latin. To spread the Wittenberg message this process of translation and revision was essential to the maturing of the movement. The later editions were published from 1543-1559 with the final edition being published just one year before Melanchthon’s death in 1560. The 1560 edition is four times the size of the original 1521 edition. "The German text of the third generation remains close to the second generation of the Latin Loci; the text is a revision by Melanchthon of the translation of Jonas.He once confessed that he found the final revision of this German translation better than the Latin Loci CR 22 31/32." We believe that this 1544 Jonas translation may be the one to which Melanchthon refers. But that is a matter for further scholarly investigation. The simple beauty of the copy with its silver clasps is exceptional. Veit Kreutzer hardcover

The work is printed in red and black. Plantin edition of the revised Roman Missal following the directives of the Council of Trent first published in Rome in 1570 by order of pope Pius V 1504-1572 and later approved by Clemens VIII 1536-1605 and Urbanus VIII 1568-1644. The work was quite popular as Plantin published a new missal nearly every year from 1571 onwards. All editions were printed in different sizes and in two issues one with woodcut illustrations and one with engravings. The present copy is the octavo edition with woodcut illustrations and comes from the library of the famous Carthusian monastery of Buxheim Maria Saal near Memmingen Bavaria.The monstery of Buxheim was founded in 1402 and dissolved after the secularisation in 1803. The rich library was auctioned in 1883 by Förster and in 1884 by Ludwig Rosenthal in Munich. The Museum of the Charterhouse Buxheim today is actively studying the history of the library and the present location of its books and manuscripts. The present copy is bound in contemporary pigskin which was likely bound for the monastery itself as the rolls depict Saint Bruno who was the founder of the Carthusian order. The Missal is therefore probably bound in a South-German bindery in the surroundings of the monastery.With an ownership annotation on the title page "Cartusiae Buxheim". The binding is somewhat rubbed and soiled. The leaves are lightly browned some of the leaves are slightly stained especially around the leather tabs. Otherwise in good condition.l Belg.
