PFORZHEIMER LIBRARY.MareMagnum

The Carl H. Pforzheimer Library. English Literature 1475-1700. [Complied by E. Unger and W.A. Jackson].

3 Vols., large 4to, limited to 750 copies, with a new addendum of books found in the library but omitted from the original edition, frontispieces, 104 plates, orig. cloth, gilt. A long-awaited and much-needed reprint of one of the twentieth century's greatest, and scarcest, bibliographies, which was originally issued in an edition of only 150 copies. "The descriptions of the 1,105 printed books and 169 autographs and manuscripts are the chef d'oeuvre of William A. Jackson and the non plus ultra of 'critical' bibliography as postulated by Sir Walter Greg. Miss Unger had been the librarian of the Pforzheimer Library since 1920. The catalogue is a model of its kind." - Breslauer & Folter.

WATTS (Susanna)MareMagnum

A Walk through Leicester: being a Guide to Strangers: containing a description of the Town and its environs, with remarks upon its History and Antiquities.

Second Edition, with additions, 12mo, [5], 6-100pp., folding engraved map of the town of Leicester, 5 nineteenth-century mounted actual photographs tipped-in, and 6 engraved plates tipped, modern cloth, uncut, spine faded. Susanna Watts was born in Leicester and was dedicated to bringing about the immediate abolition of slavery. She started one of the first fair trade campaigns, wrote hymns and pamphlets and even locked horns with William Wilberforce. When her father died, her wealthy family's finances became tight and she had to find a way to support herself and her mother. At the age of 15 or 16 she began writing to earn money, and as well as penning the first guide to Leicester, she wrote poetry to promote the emancipation of slaves. To be a young woman and a published author in the late 18th Century would not have been an easy task, so the fact that she prevailed shows how passionate Susanna was in her desire to make her antislavery views known. "They dared to stand up in front of all these men and say what they thought was right ? two women from the provincial town of Leicester." According to Shirley Aucott, a local historian and author, Susanna worked on a periodical called 'The Hummingbird', which brought together different ideas on the antislavery moment, and she organised what must have been one of the first fair trade campaigns! She visited local households and shops to persuade them not to use sugar produced in the Caribbean, claiming that, "abstinence from sugar would sign the death warrant of West Indian slavery."

Harvests of Dreams, 1891-1991 : Children of Pioneers SIGNED BY AUTHORS

314 pages. Signatures and inscriptions of authors upon front free endpaper. "Coinciding with the 100th anniversary of Ukrainians in Canada, this documentary contains 500 photographs, and 180 original poems. Relates in considerable detail pioneer farming at the turn of the century. Resurrects life and learning in one-room country schools. Relates the trials and tribulations of the early settlers. The emphasis they placed upon education, religion, community co-operation, good neighbourliness, strong family unity, and the preservation of cultural values and ideals. Covers the rigors of the Great Depression, starvation in the midst of plenty, the clash of ideologies, the threat of World War II and fascism, and the crushed hopes and dreams of a young educator 20 years later during the McCarthy reaction, for having dared to study the causal factors of human misery and to dream about viable alternatives.... Illustrates that truth is often stranger than fiction, and that out of the ashes of incinerated dreams, new dreams are born and realized." - from dust jacket. Book clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Dust jacket not pretty. Nice copy overall. Book

Mainzer, Dr. Joseph.MareMagnum

MUSIC AND EDUCATION.

pp. xv, 111 + Publisher's advertisements dated April, 1847 (32 p.). Thin 8vo. Original full cloth binding, decorated in blind. Soiled. PRESENTATION COPY of the first edition: "James B. Syme from Dr. Mainzer." An influential essay by a German singing master and music teacher who came to England in 1839. Mainzer dedicates his book to the Members of the Educational Institute of Scotland 'because the Institute has, despite the national prejudices, acknowledged music as a branch of public instruction, as an element in the education of youth'. He discusses (in a Scottish context): the Present System of Musical Education; Musical Teaching in Boarding Schools; Vocal Music, its Influence Upon the Health of Children; Infancy the Best Age for Singing; Moral Influence of Music; Music in Infant Schools (and) in Schools for Children, Young Ladies, and Classical Students; Etc. This copy was presented to Dr. James Syme (1799-1870) of Edinburgh. As a student at Edinburgh University he found a way of dissolving rubber which later had many commercial applications. Syme opened a school of Anatomy and later opened a very successful private clinic. In 1833, he became Professor of Surgery in Edinburgh and held that position until his death. Syme is known for introducing conservative alternatives to the major amputations that were common at the time. In 1831, he released a booklet, which detailed cases where joint excision could be used instead of amputation for grossly diseased joints. In 1842, Syme described an amputation at the ankle. This amputation still bears his name, as it replaced a portion of below knee amputations, which were ordinary practice at that time. JUN2C / SE 1/2
