7400New York. 1942. February 1942. Viking Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. Translated from the German by Andrew St. James. 140 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by I. Steinberg. keywords: Europe Austria Literature Translated History Biography World Literature. DESCRIPTION - Did Amerigo Vespucci discover America He did not. Did he first set foot upon the mainland He did not. Did he ever claim either of these achievements or suggest that his name be bestowed upon this mundus novus A proposal so audacious would never have occurred to him. By what grotesque coincidence then did �America' become the name of that new world which should have been called �Columbia' In this erudite and witty book Zweig untangles the snarl of accident and forgery that produced so astonishing a denouement. Once on the trail of this grandiose case of mistaken identity Zweig fills in with rapid revealing strokes the background against which it took place. He pictures the drugged world of the Middle Ages slowly regaining consciousness reaching out to embrace all knowledge to dare all unknown dangers to grasp to itself the riches of an earth whose scope it had just begun to comprehend. He evaluates Vespucci's actual contribution to that greatest age of discovery shows how an unsought notoriety was thrust upon him and how he the most honest and modest of men was vilified for generations as a liar and braggart. Zweig's powers of characterization his unerring faculty for getting at the import ant truth in the morass of ancient fact have made him one of the most popular historians and biographers of our day. He has never had a subject better suited to his talents. inventory #7400 hardcover

193161915New York: Viking Press 1931. First American Edition. First printing. 12mo. Yellow cloth titled in maroon on spine with color pictorial vignette to front cover; dark green topstain; 121pp. Light soiling to cloth else a straight tight Near Fine copy. In the original pictorial dustwrapper unclipped priced $1.50 on front flap lightly soiled but generally bright and unfaded Very Good. <br /> <br /> Zweig's controversial novella originally published in the Viennese newspaper Neue Freie Presse in 1922. The story filled with Freudian references deals with the romantic obsession of an abortionist with one of his patients leading finally to her death and his suicide - almost needless to say this was hardly the drink of choice for Americans in the Great Depression; the print run must have been small and sales smaller still as today the book is unexpectedly scarce in commerce and rarely found in nice condition.

1933012304Viking Press 1933. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. First US edition fifth printing after the first 1931. Near fine copy lacking dustjacket. Plainly signed in purple ink by Zweig. Tragic novella which tells the grim tale of mutual doom of Dutch doctor in colonial Malaysia and a colonial government official's wife for whom he refuses to perform an abortion. A most curious and unsettling contemplation not so much about morality but more the fatality of obsessive ego. The title as in "run amuck" derives from the Javanese expression for bizarrely manic obsessive behavior and it was in fact Zweig's book that made the saying part of the vernacular language. Signatures of Austrian author Zweig who in the 1920s-40s was the most translated author in the world are rather uncommon. Viking Press hardcover books
