Lyon & Paris, Durand & Vallat, 1767. [4]-100-[2]p. Edition originale posthume de la pièce d'Helvetius, sans le feuillet d'errata qui manque souvent. La longue préface est du à Saint-Lambert qui a retrouvé la pièce dans les papiers d'Helvetius. Edition originale de la pièce de Guyétant. Né en 1748, il publia cette pièce à la louange de Voltaire puis devint le secrétaire du marquis de Villette. Edition originale rare du texte sur le régiment d'Auvergne et Louis d'Assas, célèbre chevalier mort lors de la bataille de KlosterKampen en 1760, bien complet de son frontispice dépliant. Cet ouvrage ne se rencontre que très rarement et a bénéficié de deux tirages qui ne diffèrent que par le nom de l'auteur sur la page de titre (L*** au lieu de Lamy comme sur le nôtre). L'ouvrage est publié tardivement (23 ans après la mort d'Assas) et s'inscrit, après Voltaire en 1769, dans une lignée d'ouvrages sur Assas et le régiment. Le frontispice représente « Le Curtius Français ou la mort du chevalier d'Assas ». En effet, la victoire eut lieu car avant de mourir, le chevalier aurait eu le temps de dire : « A moi, l'Auvergne, c'est l'ennemi ! » (version contestée). Seuls deux exemplaires répertoriés sur CCfr et WorldCat (BnF & BM Lyon - ce dernier numérisé sur googlebooks). L'ouvrage contient quelques notes marginales d'époque, à l'encre. Edition originale de l'ouvrage de Mathon, couronné par l'Académie des Inscriptions. Le dernier ouvrage est en première édition séparée d'un texte de Mesmon paru dans le Journal de Lecture. Reliure demi-basane, dos à nerfs orné, pièce de titre maroquin, tranches rouges, petits défauts. Bon exemplaire avec un texte rare.

Archive of Handwritten Postcards with Heartfelt Correspondences from a W.W.I Australian Soldier during the Gallipoli Campaign and Going through Europe and Northern Africa

1915207331915. Australian Imperial Force soldiers postcard correspondence Archive 1915 to 1916 documents ANZAC service during the Gallipoli campaign and subsequent deployments across the Mediterranean theater through sustained communication with a civilian recipient in Sydney. The archive centers on letters addressed to a woman identified as Olga written by multiple soldiers including her brother Eric and another correspondent George. The material records trench conditions troop movement and the transmission of news from the front including the report of Eric's death. The correspondence situates individual experience within the Gallipoli campaign where Allied forces sustained heavy casualties in operations against Ottoman defenses and traces the continuation of service across France Egypt and Greece following the withdrawal. Archive of 54 handwritten postcard letters. Europe North Africa and the Mediterranean 1915 to 1916. Each message is written on the verso of a period postcard most measuring approximately 5.5 x 3.5 inches with photographic views of cities and towns including London French villages Cairo and locations in Greece. Several images depict damaged urban environments. One postcard bears a censorship marking with portions of text obscured. The correspondence includes multiple authors primarily Eric and George. In one letter from France George writes "Thank you for the pose.We are having beautiful weather at present. Just like an Australian spring. Love from George." Eric writing from Egypt on April 16 notes "We are once again in the trenches where we have had a very lovely time for a few days." A later letter reports Eric's death stating "You need have no fear that he was decently buried" while subsequent correspondence reflects diminished communication and shifting personal relationships including George's inquiry "Do you ever write to me Olga. I wish a few letters from you would turn up." The Gallipoli campaign fought from April 1915 to January 1916 resulted in extensive casualties and became central to the development of ANZAC identity commemorated annually as Anzac Day. Following the evacuation of Gallipoli Australian forces were redeployed across multiple theaters including the Western Front and Middle Eastern campaigns reflected in the geographic range of these postcards. The archive documents the function of wartime correspondence under censorship and the role of letters in conveying both military experience and personal loss to the home front.

AUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED BY SIR HOWARD DOUGLAS REQUESTING A DRAWING FOR HIS "TREATISE ON NAVAL GUNNERY".

186034086Green Street London: April 15 1860. 1860. Very good. - Letter penned in black ink filling most of both sides of a sheet of cream paper approximately 8 inches high by 6 inches wide bordered in black. The letter is tipped onto a slightly larger piece of card stock. Signed "Howard Douglas". There is a tiny chip to the left edge of the black border. Folded twice for mailing. Very good Howard Douglas writes to Colonel John St. George 1812-1891 Director of Ordnance at the War Office asking for the return of a drawing of a gun which he wants to include in his upcoming book "Treatise on Naval Gunnery" fifth edition revised published in 1860. "I am anxious for the return of the drawing which I sent to you of the Armstrong Naval Gun on its carriage.The omission would deprive my work of a good deal of interest.I have stopped the Press waiting for your reply".General Sir Howard Douglas 3rd Baronet 1776-1861 was a British military officer and Member of Parliament for Liverpool from 1842-1847. After entering the Royal Military Academy Woolwich he was commissioned Second Liutenant in the Royal Artillery in 1794 becoming Lieutenant a few months later. He served as Governor of New Brunswick from 1823-31 and had to deal with the Maine boundary dispute with the United States of 1828. He also founded Fredericton College now known as the University of New Brunswick and was its first Chancellor. From 1835 to 1840 he was Lord High Commissioner of the Ionian Islands where he introduced a new code of laws known as "the Douglas code". The code infuriated the Greek Orthodox patriarchate in that it included innovations affecting family life especially marriage and divorce. Abused or abandoned women could more easily obtain a divorce. Further it legalized marriage between step-siblings and second cousins. Douglas was the author of several important military and naval treatises including the "Treatise on Naval Gunnery" of which the fifth edition is referred to in this letter. It became a standard text book and was the first publication to draw attention to its subject. Green Street [London]: April 15, 1860. unknown

Stanley Casson (1889-1944), Ancient Greek archaeologist, soldier and poet, who oversaw the erection of the monument over the graBiblio.com

Stanley Casson Ancient Greek archaeologist soldier and poet who oversaw the erection of Rupert Brooke’s monument at Skyros. Eleven unpublished Autograph Poems with unpublished prose piece ‘The Man from the Hills’.

24038Ten of the poems dated to 1912; one from Burnham Beeches. Prose piece without date or place. Archaeologist poet soldier writer of crime fiction - it seems extraordinary that such a man should not have been accorded an entry in the Oxford DNB. In 2001 Napier University in Edinburgh published twenty-one of her father’s ‘Poems from the Great War’ transcribed from his notebook by his daughter Lady Jennifer MacLellan. At least ten of the eleven poems present here date from before the war. The are conventional in structure and somewhat immature in tone: the influence of Francis Thompson is apparent. The prose piece is altogether more successful. In choosing as his subject a fictitious individual with an almost primal connection with rock and stone Casson could almost be writing about himself. He was the author of ‘The Technique of Early Greek Sculpture’ 1933 and ‘Sculpture of To-day’ 1939 and carefully oversaw the transportation of the two and a half tons of sculptured marble and iron railings of Rupert Brooke’s monument to the remote olive grove where he is buried. All eleven poems present here are fair copies in autograph nor has the typescript prose piece any manuscript emendations. There is no indication that any of the items were ever published. The eleven poems are grouped over two bifoliums and two loose leaves each of the four groups dating from a different time. ONE: Six poems on a bifolium headed ‘Sept. 1912. M. F.’ 3pp 12mo. The first lines of the six poems are as follows. First poem twelve lines: ‘Little Brothers of the Grasses / Let me stay awhile with you.’ Second poem five lines: ‘On the warm stones beside the sea I lie’. The last four poems appear to have the collective title ‘Sea Sorrow.’ Third poem four lines: ‘Wild waves that fling their foam & fall’. Fourth poem eight lines: ‘O passionate waves that never tire!’ Fifth poem eight lines: ‘’Tween grey of the sea & grey of the sky’. Sixth poem four lines: ‘Over the downs at dusk of day’. TWO: Three poems on a single leaf headed ‘Burnham Beeches. / Oct. 1912. M. F.’ 1p 4to. First poem twelve lines: ‘Deep down in the woods when the leaves are falling’. Second poem six line: ‘A cold gold moon climbed up a steely sky’. Third poem sixteen lines: ‘Life like leaves that were green & now are sere’. THREE: Single poem twenty-one lines on bifolium headed ‘MÆSTITIA DIERVM NON REVOCANDARVM QUIA CONFECTARVM. / Nov. 1912.’ First of three stanzas: ‘Amind the singing of the stars / Amid the singing of the sea / The old dead days from devious ways / Came drifting drifting up the / hilltop still and secretly. / All grey the earth and grey the sky / As the ghosts of days went drifting by.’ FOUR: Single poem ten lines on one side of torn piece of paper. 1p landscape 12mo. Begins: ‘What has been and what is to be / Surges around and covers me.’ FIVE: Mimeographed typescript of a prose piece titled ‘THE MAN FROM THE HILLS’ with the author’s name given at top right as ‘S. CASSON.’ 5pp 4to. Printed on one side each of five leaves held together with a brass stud. Neatly folded twice. Reminiscences and assessment of the character of a almost certainly fictional departed friend of the narrator’s an otherworldly figure with a ‘close friendship of inanmate things’ and in particular stone ‘He told me once that the grandest feeling he had ever experienced was when he was crossing the Aegean and knew he was near Paros and its marble quarries.’. First paragraph reads: ‘His senses told him of the proximity of mountains just as we of cruder sensibility know when we are near the sea. He was not endowed with the more abnormal gifts of those in whose hands hazel twigs bend at the knowledge of flowing water or who can tell without enquiry what sort of men they were who scarred the hilltops with trenches or carved the slopes into lynchets. He was just an ordinary man but his capacities had bever been blunted with the trivialities of routine or the banal things of everyday existence.’ Ten of the poems dated to 1912; one from Burnham Beeches. Prose piece without date or place. unknown
