193522678EBeverly Hills CA 1935. Original Typed Letter Signed by silent film actor / comedian Ben Turpin to celebrity columnist and radio personality Walter Winchell. One page dated March 31 1935. From the text: “Dear Walter Just a note to advise you that the story of my life is about to be completed. It is to be entitled ‘My Cock-eyed Past’ by Ben Turpin as told to Willis Gordon Brown. It is to be submitted for magazine publication first and then with elaborations to be published in book form. At 66 I look back upon a stage career in the ‘gay nineties’ and a movie career starting with ‘Broncho Billy’ Anderson in 1908 both I believe containing interesting anecdotes and quite a bit of humor. Any ‘plugs’ tossed this way will be deeply appreciated by an old-timer. Sincerely Ben Turpinâ€. With creases from folding and a bit of age-toning else fine. Ben Turpin 1869 - 1940 was a great slapstick film and stage comedian with a cross-eyed expression best known for his work with Mack Sennett. Walter Winchell 1897 - 1972 was a famous syndicated newspaper gossip columnist and radio news commentator. He is remembered for his catch phrase “Good evening Mr. and Mrs. America from border to border and coast to coast and all the ships at sea. Let's go to press. unknown

A very good copy amply-margined with fine crisp text throughout.<br /> <br /> Important edition of this Aramaic version of the biblical books of Chronicles attributed to Joseph ben Hiyya d. 333 a Babylonian amora and head of the Pumbedita academy near present-day Falluja Iraq. "Ben Hiyya was also distinguished in biblical exegesis and left an Aramaic translation of parts of the Bible which is often quoted. It is not to be assumed however that Joseph translated the whole Bible though the Aramaic translation of the Books of Chronicles is ascribed to him. Enc. Jud. The editio princeps edited from an Erfurt manuscript by Matthias Frederick Beck and accompanied by substantial annotations was published at Augsburg in 1680. "After this David Wilkins gave the public an edition from a Cambridge manuscript of which the text was more pure and more complete. The critic should unite both these editions the former for the value of its learned notes and the latter for its full and accurate text†The Biblical Repertory. <br /> <br /> The Coptic scholar David Wilkens 1685–1745 was born of Prussian parentage in Memel Lithuania. Little is known about his education in Germany probably in Berlin or how he acquired his knowledge of ancient and Semitic languages which was extensive rather than profound. He referred to the antiquarian Ezechiel Spanheim the elector of Brandenburg's ambassador in England from 1701 to 1710 as his former teacher. By 1707 Wilkins was studying at the Bodleian Library in Oxford and had encountered a group of clerical protectors in London. In 1709 engaged in preparing a history of the patriarchs of Alexandria which remained in manuscript and the editio princeps of the Coptic Bohairic New Testament the Novum Testamentum Aegyptium 1716 he left for the continent. He called on scholars examined manuscripts in Vienna Rome and Paris and stopped in Amsterdam in 1714 to see to the publication of his first works -- an edition of the Aramaic paraphrasis of the books of Chronicles and an Armenian version of the apocryphal third epistle to the Corinthians 1715 -- and of John Chamberlayne's polyglot edition of the Lord's prayer to which he contributed. Wilkins was an industrious scholar. In the three years he spent as librarian at Lambeth he made important contributions to the cataloguing of manuscripts. In 1721 he edited the Anglo-Saxon laws in 1725–6 the complete works of John Selden and in 1731 the Coptic Pentateuch. His main work was his Concilia Magnae Britanniae et Hiberniae an account of British church councils from 446 to 1717. Wilkins had many detractors -- John Gagnier the professor of Arabic at Oxford who deplored his incompetence in Arabic and Hebrew Edward Harley who described him as ‘a very great scoundrel’ and the cantankerous Thomas Hearne who as librarian at the Bodleian had watched him turn from a young man ‘of a civil Courteous and modest behaviour’ into ‘a vain ambitious man of little judgement tho' great industry’ ready to ‘do anything in the World for a little Money’ Alastair Hamilton: "Wilkens David" -- ODNB online.<br /> <br /> Provenance: From the library of G.H.A.

54622Paris: self-published 1966. Square quarto 27 × 26 cm. Thread-stitched sections in original printed folder; 72 pp. With numerous mounted and separately laid-in multiples and graphics: one original graphic two folded graphically designed plates four enclosed plates of concrete poetry eight enclosed typographically designed pages unopened section two mounted envelopes with ten printed small cards each by Ben Vautier and one vinyl record with recordings by Raul Hausmann poèmes phonétiques 1918 Bernard Heidsieck and Henri Chopin. Folder with signs of use; edges of the folder slightly damaged; else good or better. Single issue of the rare avant-garde journal which Henri Chopin edited published and partly produced in his own home. Influenced by the Dadaists Chopin unlike the Lettrists was not only interested in pictorial poetry but above all in tonal poetry. Lettrism did not go far enough for him in terms of the dissolution of linguistic conventions and the use of new media. In 1958 he took over the editorship of the conventional poetry magazine "Cinquième Saison" in which he published early reflections on phonetic poetry. The last issue under this title contained a record and among other things the poet René Ghil's prophecy: "In 50 years the poet will be operating phonetic machines." Number 20/21 was then published under the new title "OU". This underlined the radical change in the journal which from then on resembled "multimedia compendia" or "poetic wonder bags" Marc Matter filled with loose leaves screen prints posters fanfolds relief images typographic collages sometimes even three-dimensional objects and regularly a record. In this way Dadaism Futurism Ultra-Lettrism Fluxus Concrete Poetry etc. were mixed together. Chopin consistently self-published the elaborate journal for ten years. He and his wife worked endlessly at home to put together the individual issues and sent them out all over the world. Cf.
