William Henry White born about 1777 died 5 Apr 1866 : ".Little is on record of his early days but we do know that he was initiated in the Lodge of Emulation No.21 on 15 April 1799 and in 1801 became its Worshipful Master. Having been honoured with the rank of Grand Steward in 1805 he joined Grand Stewards Lodge in 1805. In 1810 he became Joint Secretary Premier Grand Lodge with his father William White and was very active in the Lodge of Reconciliation. Before 1813 he was appointed Private Secretary to HRH the Duke of Sussex an office held until the Duke's death. He was also Secretary of the Hon. Artillery Company. At the Quarterly Communication of March 1856 when both Zetland and White were absent because of ill health there was open opposition to the re-election of the Grand Master though he was elected and proclaimed and the motion was duly carried. The Masonic Mirror in March 1856 reported that Bro White was quite ill. White sent his resignation to the Grand Master. Zetland refused to accept it and White continued until April 1857 when William Gray Clarke was appointed Grand Secretary. William Henry White became Joint Grand Secretary from 27th December 1813 and retired 29th April 1857. Bro White was to live a further nine years on the pension voted for him by Grand Lodge. He had served the premier Grand Lodge and the United Grand Lodge of England all his adult life. As Joint Grand Secretary of the Moderns with his father from 1810 and Joint Grand Secretary of the UGLE with Edwards Harper from 1813 to 1838 and finally as Grand Secretary of UGLE from 1839 to 1857. A total of forty-seven years serving two Grand Masters the Duke of Sussex and the Earl of Zetland both of whom totally relied on him. He had withstood the onslaught of Drs. Crecefix and Oliver and outlasted them and their magazines. William H. White lived in retirement for another few years and passed away in 1866." - see The Union of the "Moderns" and the "Antients" Grand lodges to create The United Grand Lodge of England in 1813.

"Alexander Meyrick Broadley 19 July 1847 � 16 April 1916 was a British historian author and barrister.

He entered Lincoln's Inn as a law student in 1866 and was called to the bar in 1869. He lived in Tunis for a number of years and worked as a lawyer there within the French legal system. He later lived in Belgium for a time. In later life he returned to Bradpole and built a large house called "The Knapp" as of 1998 it still existed and had been converted into a nursing home. He collected a large number of books some of which he "grangerized" by adding additional illustrations and also became a prolific author of books on historical topics." - See Wikipedia London: Printed By Norris And Son, Bloomfield Street, Finsbury Circus.

2003ART5940MRelié, 1150 pages, paru le 5 décembre 2003 chez Seuil, livre en très bon état général.
Volume in 8°, legato in pelle, titolo inciso al dorso, sguardie, occhiello, frontespizio, dedicatoria, prefazione, sommario, XXIII, 581 pp., indice e bianca finale. Opera composta di una parte teorica e di una parte storica, ossia due libri indipendenti, ma che si aiutano a vicenda. La prima parte riguarda l'estetica come scienza dell'espressione linguistica generale ed illustra le analogie tra il teoretico ed il pratico, la distinzione del bello e del brutto, gli errori nascenti dalla confusione tra fisica ed estetica e la storia della letteratura e dell'arte. La seconda parte descive le idee estetiche delle diverse epoche storiche, da Vico a Kant, l'estetica dell'idealismo di Schiller, Schelling, Solger, Hegel, Schopenhauer ed Herbart, nonchè la filosofia del linguaggio di Humboldt, Steinthal e degli estetici tedeschi minori, lo psicologismo estetico e dei nuovi indirizzi e le altre dottrine particolari. Terza edizione scarsamente reperibile. In perfetto stato.

A CURA DI GRAZIANO ARRIGHETTI GIOVANNI INDELLI GIULIANA LEONE FRANCESCA LONGO AURICCHIO FRIDERICIANA EDITRICE UNIVERSITARIA 2006 2 volumi, RISPETTIVAMENTE XX-591 E 437 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: VOLUMI PERFETTI E INTONSI A cinque anni dalla scomparsa, amici e allievi di Marcello Gigante hanno voluto raccogliere i suoi scritti, apparsi in varie sedi nell'arco di oltre un cinquantennio, sulla poesia greca e latina, che Gigante considerava come aspetti inscindibili di un'unica civiltà. Accanto agli affreschi sulla cultura letteraria antica dalla Magna Grecia alla Campania, quel Mezzogiorno d'italia dove Gigante aveva le sue radici alle quali è rimasto sempre profondamente legato, i volumi comprendono saggi di ampio respiro e lavori più puntuali su molti temi e autori della letteratura greca, da Omero, Esiodo, i lirici fino agli Epigrammatisti della Corona di Meleagro, e latina, da Ennio, Catullo, Virgilio, Orazio fino a Ovidio. La silloge consente di seguire l'evoluzione spirituale dell'autore, uno dei più insigni filologi classici del Novecento, che ha praticato la filologia come disciplina storica, in cui l'analisi del documento è unita a quella del monumento "a spiegare un fenomeno di un'epoca determinata". Nei due volumi si possono anche ripercorrere le tappe più significative della cultura classica negli ultimi sessanta anni: i congressi omerici a Itaca, le grandi celebrazioni per i bimillenari virgiliano e oraziano, le "Festschriften" e le "Denkschriften" per studiosi illustri.

A very good original Victorian binding. 8vo. 8.75" x 5.75" x 1.25". pp.24/pp.316/2pp. - Adverts. Blue cloth over bevelled boards with bright gilt titles to front board and to spine wear to top and tail of spine and edges rubbed.

A very good copy of this scarce book. "Thomas Dunckerley was born on 23 October 1724 and died on 19 November 1795. After a naval career Dunckerley became a prominent freemason being appointed Provincial Grand Master of several provinces promoting Royal Arch Masonry introducing Mark Masonry to England and instituting a national body for Templar masonry. This was made possible by an annuity of �100 rising to �800 which he obtained from King George III by claiming to be his illegitimate half brother. Albert Mackey blamed Dunckerley for inventing Royal Arch Masonry and splitting the third degree in the process removing the true word of a mason to the new degree and losing the original "pure" form of the ritual forever. This is unlikely as the Royal Arch degree was worked for at least a decade before Dunckerley's initiation. He published a number of Charges Lectures and songs related to different branches of Freemasonry. Together with Grand Secretary Heseltine and William Preston he campaigned and raised funds for the first dedicated headquarters of English Freemasonry the first Freemason's Hall. During his lifetime he held various high masonic offices: Past Senior Grand Warden of England Provincial Grand Master for the Counties above mentioned and Past Grand Master and Grand Superintendent of Royal Arch Masons over eighteen counties. His major contribution was to the emerging "higher degrees" the Templar Royal Arch Ark Mariner and Mark degrees. Not only did he successfully promote them he organised them standardised their ritual and forced them to keep proper records. For this alone historians of Freemasonry have cause to be grateful to him." - See Wikipedia.
