1981615494Southern Africa 1981. Hardcover. Near Fine. Photo album consisting of 38 color photos belonging to Charles V. Hamilton. In 1967 with cowriter Stokely Carmichael Hamilton published the groundbreaking book Black Power: The Politics of Liberation. Part of the book's and Hamilton's legacy is solidifying the term "institutional racism in public discourse. From 1969 until his retirement in 1998 Hamilton was the Wallace S. Sayre professor of government and political science at Columbia University. This photo album documents the three years Hamilton spent working for the Study Commission on U.S. Policy Toward Southern Africa spanning the years 1979 to 1981. The findings of this study were compiled into a book by Allison Drew titled South Africa: Time is Running Out 1981. A review of the book published in the peer reviewed journal Ufahamu: A Journal of African Studies states that the goal of the report was "to create a policy framework based on United States interests in the South African context." However the review's conclusion is rather critical of the commission's results stating:<br /> <br /> "Although taking a firm stance against petty apartheid and effectively challenging South Africa's view of its own strategic importance the commission's economic policy recommendations amount to a carte blanche for continued United States investments. In essence therefore the commission's suggestions support the status quo. Its recommendation of continued United States investment is in fact a vote of confidence for apartheid . Moderation and maximization of interests within a nonviolent framework are the main themes of this book and moderation is what it seeks from the reader.â€<br /> <br /> This apparently unsuccessful attempt to bridge the gap between public interests and business interests is partially illustrated in the mix of individuals who were involved. Hamilton was appointed as one of 11 commissioners on the study along with other academics and activists such as Ruth Simms Hamilton no relation Aileen C Hernandez and Constance Hilliard. Other members included businessmen such as Alan Pifer the acting president of the Carnegie Corporation at the time; C. Peter McColough the CEO of Xerox; businessman and philanthropist Frank A. Thomas; and J. Irwin Miller a businessman known for his civic activism. We have confirmed photographs featuring both Charles V. Hamilton and Frank A. Thomas and we believe that there are also photos of Ruth Simms Hamilton Aileen C. Hernandez J. Irwin Miller C. Peter McColough and Howard D. Samuel. The photos show them having talks and meeting locals. One shows Hamilton and we believe McColough at a talk on DWEP The Domestic Workers and Employers Project; one shows Thomas with four locals one of them holding an umbrella over Thomas' head; one shows Thomas outside of what appears to be a church speaking to a man with a crowd of children surrounding them; and one shows a large gathering of people Hamilton included in hardhats and jumpsuits. There are also six photos taken at what we believe to be a mansion known as "Graceland" located in Muizenberg Cape Town South Africa. One is a view of what looks to be the back of the house taken from afar then we see exterior shots of commissioners and others drinking coffee and chatting and interior shots of them working. Later in the album perhaps at Graceland a curious photo shows three people looking from a second story railing and displaying a large cartoon. It’s very hard to make out the caption in full but it mentions “the press.â€<br /> <br /> Also included is a bag of personal mementos: four home photographs of a child two including a man and one including a woman a copy of Pages of Time: 1929 the year Hamilton was born given to him for his 74th birthday a card with a newspaper clipping announcing him being appointed professor of government at Columbia University his daughter's Carol ID card from when she worked in the Office of the Secretary at the Department of Commerce as well as her business card from when she was the president of Cooper Hamilton Associates; and three other business cards perhaps of associates.<br /> <br /> Based on the presentation we suspect that this album was a gift given to each of the eleven commissioners though we cannot find another example of it. The album consists of 38 color photographs affixed to thick cardstock pages bound within an album of blue leather boards stamped in silver print on the front board with two lines of silver tooling on the spine. Boards worn but overall a near fine album with the photos clean and bright.<br /> <br /> A behind the scenes look at the Study Commission on U.S. Policy Toward Southern Africa in the time of Apartheid. hardcover

1527ABC_49771Antwerp: Joannes Grapheus 1527. 17th-century vellum sewn on 4 supports laced through the joints remnants of closing ties red and grey sprinkled edges. Small 8vo. With a woodcut printer's device on the final page of ad 1 and 2 decorated woodcut initials in ad 2. 2 works in 1 volume. With bound before ad 1: CLEMENT VII Pope. Epistolae duae Altera Clementis VII Papae ad Karolum V Imperatorem Aug. etc. Altera Karoli V Imp. Aug. etc. Clementi respondentis. Cologne Petrus Quentell March 1527. Early edition of the correspondence between Emperor Charles V and King Francis I illustrating the strained political situation in Europe during the years 1526-1527. Francis was captured by Charles' army in February 1525 and held captive until he signed the Treaty of Madrid in January 1526 in which he surrendered Italy Artois Flanders and Burgundy to Charles. However he broke the treaty upon his return to France. The present work contains nine documents. Together these were issued as political propaganda intended to counteract the indignation aroused in many parts of Europe when the imperial army invaded Italy and ransacked Rome May 6 1527. Included are inter alia the text of the "Foedus Clementinum" Francis I's refusal to approve the Treaty of Madrid and the imperial letter to the Roman cardinals of October 6 1526 demanding that they summon a general council even against the will of the Pope. Several editions of the work appeared in 1527 including translations into Dutch and French. The present copy comes from the library of Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun 1655-1716.Ad 2 contains two letters one from Pope Clement VII to Emperor Charles V written on the 23rd of June 1526 and the response of the latter written on the 17th of September of the same year. The pope had just entered into an alliance with Francis I against Charles and started the War of the League of Cognac 1526-1530 to drive him away from the Italian Peninsula. Together with ad 1 the present work provides an understanding of the complex political and religious tensions in Europe during the period.With a 17th-century ownership annotation on the title page of ads 1 and 2 "Fletcher". A brown stain on the front board. The work is somewhat browned throughout. Otherwise in good condition.l Ad 1: Knuttel 32; Nijhoff & Kronenberg 1263; USTC 403777; not in the STCV; Ad 2: Adams C 2135; USTC 651301; VD 16 K339. Joannes Grapheus, hardcover
