cm. 17 ? 24, 6 tomi di xii-3264 pp. Epistolario di Camillo Cavour Fitti scambi epistolari e un?intensa attivit? diplomatica caratterizzano il 1860, anno centrale del triennio in cui giunse a compimento il processo di unificazione, e ne mettono a fuoco le tappe salienti: l?annessione dell?Emilia e della Toscana al Piemonte, l?impresa garibaldina dei Mille, la liberazione della Sicilia e del continente, la spedizione nelle Marche e nell?Umbria, i plebisciti nell?Italia centro-meridionale e nell?isola, l?arrivo a Napoli dei piemontesi. The middle year of the triennium in which the unification process was brought to completion, 1860, is characterised by an intensive exchange of correspondence and a frantic diplomatic activity, both highlighting its major phases: Emilia and Tuscany annexed by Piemonte, Garibaldi?s expedition of the Thousand, the liberation of Sicily and Europe, the expedition to Marche and Umbria, plebiscites in central-southern Italy and in the island, officials from Piemonte arriving in Naples. 5865 gr. xii-3264 p.

New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. In the original slipcase. Folio. (33 x 24 cm). Edition in English. 2 volumes set: (988 p.), 1600 color ills. and many plates. This lavishly illustrated, deeply researched, two volume collection is the outcome of 15 years of exploration into Armenian painters, both amateur and professional, who were born in the Ottoman Empire. The book contains condensed biographies of artists, even those for whom it was impossible to find any existing paintings. It also features several paintings for which no biographical information on the artist could be found. The collection features extensive study of the styles and signatures used by the painters, who were all born in the Ottoman Empire but ended up scattered throughout the world. The author made efforts to contact the artists' families when possibly, sought information in church records and obituaries, and explored the archives of Armenian and Ottoman Turkish newspapers. The books include details on roughly 450 Armenian painters born in the Ottoman Empire from the 17th century until 1923. A true labor of love, this work's collection of glorious color photographs brings to life the skilled Armenian artists who once populated modern day Turkey. This is a treasure of information and beauty collected in one beautiful, boxed, two-book set. By the same researcher and author who produced the wonderfully detailed books Anatolian Weights and Measures and Ottoman Silver Marks.

All edges gold. Magnificently bound in full morocco leather, decorated in gold gilt with the arms of Louis XIV. Though rubbed in places, this sumptuous binding really reflects this highest style of the art in the 17th century. The plates and text are remarkably clean and beautifully presented.

Hardcover Very good condition, in 3/4 calf & marbled boards, backstrips restored Notes: Apparently based on the French translation by Aubert de Vitry of books I-XV, all that had so far appeared in Germany. In the English translation, the books of the original work are denoted "chapters." The translator’s "work, it appears, is done from the French, and shows subtractions, and what is worse, additions."--Carlyle, Crit. and miscell. essays, New York, 1872, vol. I, p. 178. An American edition, with imprint: New York, Collins and Hannay ... and Collins and co., appeared in the same year, and was reissued in 1844 by Collins & Hannay. cf. Baldensperger, Goethe en France, 1907, no. 1696. "Postscript" (summary of Goethe’s works) and "Biographical notices of the principal persons mentioned in these memoirs" (vol. II, p.

" Mitch Mitchell, who was the Experience drummer throughout the years of fame, tells his story. No one knew Jimi better than Mitch over the whole period - from day one of the Experience to Hendrix's death in 1970. Mitch conjures up a lost era, with all its highs and lows, frustrations and breakthroughs, humor and tragedies, from tiny clubs of London's Soho to the legendary festival of Monterey and Woodstock. Myths are debunked, new anecdotes are told for the first time. "

Cette correspondance, où Jean-Charles-Pierre Lenoir, lieutenant général de la police de Paris, joue un grand rôle, fut publiée en 1792 par Pierre Louis Manuel, grand admirateur de Mirabeau qui écrit dans la préface: «Oh! que je me félicite d'avoir été et l'un des vainqueurs de la Bastille, et l'un des administrateurs de la police ! C'est sans doute la justice éternelle qui a voulu que je fusse l'un et l'autre, afin que je vengeasse la mémoire d'un grand homme». Grandeur et bassesse de l'homme: mélange de déclamations sincères et de renseignements exacts, où l’amour déborde parmi la philosophie, la politique et la morale.
