The main historical significance of Dr. Janse's archaeological documents is to be found in the fact that they not only introduce to us the Chinese conquerors of what was to become Vietnam at the very moment when they were laying its foundations as a civilized nation buy they also reflect on Chinese culture and conditions even at home and may help to give us a clearer idea of what the Chinese were about the beginning of our era and what their quest was so far south of the Honanese cradle of their civilization. .

In a very good condition excellent interiors. ~ FIRST EDITION. Extremely rare complete set of the "deluxe" edition which comes with the original 13 collotypes in the Plate Volume. It has been noted that practically the entire FIRST EDITION of this work had the Plate Volume bound with only the autographic plates of transcription made by Fairman without the photographic plates of the papyrus itself. Although Gardiner mentions that at the eve of going to the printer "the collotype plates have been ready for more than twenty years" there seem to be the issue of Gardiner's impatience and matters of speed of process and expense: "The thought of the expense of such a publication alike to author and purchaser has been the source of much vacillation." Preface. It is therefoe that finally the option of only autographic reproduction was chosen for the main edition and a "deluxe" edition one described as "With Extra Plates" was printed in an exceptionally small run. For that matter see also Annual Egyptological Bibliography 107 which specifies the publication of two versions of this work with different prices. While Fairman's transcriptions are reproduced here lithographically the original 13 collotypes provide a rare unparalleled exquisite view of the papyrus. Provenance: From the library of renowned Egyptologist Prof. Dr. Joris Frans Borghouts 1939-2018 with some annotations in his neat hand. With a card "With the Author's compliments" loosely inserted.

There is some minor foxing to the endpapers and pastedowns and the edges of the pastedowns are soiled. Near fine. <p>The RARE FIRST EDITION from the library of the book's Dedicatee "The Honorable Lincoln MacVeagh".<p>The prospectus "The Lion of Amphipolis - A Plea for its Reconstruction" by Lincoln MacVeagh is a 10 by 7-1/2 inch 4-page pamphlet with a 1934 photograph of the fragments of the lion laid in. It was published in Athens in 1934. ".recently during the progress of the great work in connection with the drainage of the Serres Plain and the deepening of the Amphipolis Gorge the engineers of the Monks-Ulen Company of New York became impressed with the majesty and immensity of the all-but-buried and half-forgotten fragments of the Lion of Amphipolis. Enthusiastically they brought the idea of its reconstruction to me. I visited the site; and the plan herein set forth in which it is my hope that a sufficient number of lovers of Greece and of Greek Art will join was born."<p>The lecture by MacVeagh "The Lion of Amphipolis" was delivered to The French School of Archaeology at Athens in 1937. It is a 10 by 7-1/4 inch 12-page pamphlet illustrated with 4 photographs and 2 maps showing the location of Amphipolis. The lecture is for the most part an account of the restoration work to date. "While the collaboration of the French and American Schools was thus producing unexpected results the Greek authorities were also helping and besides giving the whole enterprise their blessing kindly accorded the schools the collaboration of Mr. Panayiotakis of the National Museum. This able sculptor spent weeks at Amphipolis again thanks to the Monks-Ulen Companies which lent their camp and collected the necessary workmen and tools for his operations. With great effort and patience far from the conveniences of the city Mr. Panayiotakis successfully carried through the task of making moulds some of them of truly gigantic size of all the existing fragments of the Lion. From these he made casts on the spot and again with the help of the engineers fitted these together under an enormous shed and provided in plaster the missing pieces to complete the whole figure. This year it is planned to put the actual fragments themselves together and make the missing parts out of marble cement of a color agreeable to the rest."<p>From the library of Lincoln MacVeagh and his wife Margaret with their "Arcades Ambo" bookplate on the front paste down. Lincoln MacVeagh 1890-1972 a Renaissance man graduated from Harvard magna cum laude in 1913. He went on to study languages at the Sorbonne and became fluent in German French Spanish Latin Greek and Classical Greek. After World War I he became a director of the Henry Holt and Company publishing firm where he became friendly with the poet Robert Frost. In 1923 he left the firm and founded the Dial Press. His name appears on the imprint of many of their publications. In 1933 President Roosevelt appointed him Minister to Greece. He followed presentation of his credentials with a speech in Classical Greek. While in Greece he conducted excavations beneath the Acropolis and made archeological contributions to the National Museum in Athens. He left Greece in 1941 when the German army over ran the country. From there he was appointed the first US Minister to Iceland where he negotiated agreements for the construction of the Keflavik airfield. In late 1942 he became Minister to the Union of South Africa and coordinated American wartime agencies there. In 1943 he was sent to Cairo as Ambassador so that he could assist the governments in exile of Greece and Yugoslavia. He returned to Athens as Ambassador in 1944. MacVeagh gave secret testimony before Congress concerning the Balkans in 1947 testimony that was an important factor in the formation of the Truman Doctrine. In 1948 as Ambassador to Portugal MacVeagh was influential in admitting her into NATO. In 1952 President Truman named him Ambassador to Spain. President Truman wrote to him on March 9 1948: "On the occasion of your appointment as Ambassador to Portugal I would like to make some personal expression of appreciation for the high services you have already rendered your country. During the past fifteen critical years you have served with distinction as Chief of the United states Missions to Iceland the Union of South Africa Yugoslavia and Greece. In this last post especially - as Minister from 1933 to 1941 and as Ambassador since 1943 - your scholarly statesmanship and diplomatic judgment have been of the utmost value."
