188236689Maine 1882. 2 pp plus integral blank leaf. Old hinges from prior mounting on blank last page. Very Good.<br/><br/> Writing to "Hon. F. Haines" Hamlin explains that he has "no time to look over files of letters to see what I can find that you would want." He's "very busy in getting our house in order." He will take a look when he finishes that task but advises "I have parted with all that I could spare of Prest. Lincoln and have none from Hayes."<br/> He promises to review his "many letters from such persons as you name but the difficulty will be in finding just such as I would deem proper to make public. But I will see what I can do. I do not think it necessary at all for you to come here. Yours truly H. Hamlin."<br/> Haines 1840-1925 was a successful businessman and developed an impressive side business in coins and other collectibles. The Library of Congress owns a few of the correspondence between the two men. Hamlin of course was Abraham Lincoln's first Vice President and an early Republican. He was dumped from the 1864 ticket in favor of Andrew Johnson. unknown books

Uncommon to find this book already in the US - Purchased from the Hamlin estate directly from the author a descendent of Hannibal Hamlin Vice President of the USA during Abrraham Lincoln's first term. Hamlin was a professor of music at Ohio State. Hard to find in the USA - already here so lower shipping charge. Book examines the powerful influence of the biblical Psalms on sixteenth- and seventeenth-century English literature. It explores the imaginative beautiful ingenious and sometimes ludicrous and improbable ways in which the Psalms were 'translated' from ancient Israel to Renaissance and Reformation England. No biblical book was more often or more diversely translated than the Psalms during the period. In church psalters sophisticated metrical paraphrases poetic adaptations meditations sermons commentaries and through biblical allusions in secular poems plays and prose fiction English men and women interpreted the Psalms refashioning them according to their own personal religious political or aesthetic agendas. The book focuses on literature from major writers like Shakespeare and Milton to less prominent ones like George Gascoigne Mary Sidney Herbert and George Wither but it also explores the adaptations of the Psalms in musical settings emblems works of theology and political polemic.
