"Kazantzakis's first published work was the 1906 narrative Serpent and Lily which he signed with the pen name 'Karma Nirvami' . In 1907 he went to Paris for his graduate studies and was deeply influenced by the philosophy of Henri Bergson primarily the idea that a true understanding of the world comes from the combination of intuition personal experience and rational thought. The theme of rationalism mixed with irrationality later became central to many of Kazantzakis's later stories characters and personal philosophies. Later in 1909 he wrote a one-act play titled Comedy which was filled with existential themes predating the post-Second World War existentialist movement in Europe spearheaded by writers like Jean-Paul Sartre and Camus. After completing his studies in Paris he wrote the tragedy "The Master Builder" based on a popular Greek folkloric myth. " from Wikipedia; 285p. pages; Pictured 5/28/26 . Simon & Schuster hardcover

Cover has some wear soiling and edge tear. Small area blacked out on front cover. This study was issued as information and had not been adopted by the Interstate Commerce Commission ICC when published. The ICC was a regulatory agency in the United States created by the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887. The agency's original purpose was to regulate railroads and later trucking to ensure fair rates to eliminate rate discrimination and to regulate other aspects of common carriers including interstate bus lines and telephone companies. Congress expanded ICC authority to regulate other modes of commerce beginning in 1906. The agency was abolished in 1995 and its remaining functions were assigned to the Surface Transportation Board. The Commission's five members were appointed by the President and confirmed by the United States Senate. This was the first independent agency or so-called fourth Branch. The "gray area" as used in this staff study of the Commission refers to transport operations which lie between legitimate private carrier and the transportation authorized by Government regulatory bodies. Thus the term is used to denote unauthorized transport operations often conducted under the guise of legitimate private carriage. This study deals with the character extent and distribution of gray area operations in highway transportation and other modes; important effects of gray area operations on the transportation system; enforcement activities of the Commission; and certain suggestions which have been made for remedial action. It also contains general information concerning exempt transportation although operations by exempt carriers unless the operations are unauthorized do not fall in the gray area as defined. U. S.

"Kinsky began his career as an antiquarian books dealer becoming the assistant of Albert Kopfermann at the Berlin State Library in 1908. He gained his PhD in 1925 in Cologne writing his thesis about wind instruments. He became Privatdozent of musicology at the University of Cologne teaching from 1921 to 1932 and curator of the Wilheim Heyer Museum of Music History. Kinsky was an acknowledged specialist of musical instruments and their history and had written the 1910-1916 catalogue of the museum. Being the son of a Jewish businessman Kinsky was persecuted by the Nazis which lead to the forced termination of his career as an academic and the forced possession of his private library and collection. Kinsky then served a year in a labour camp until 1945 with the Allied Victory of World War Two. Kinsky spent the rest of his life from 1945 onwards compiling Das Werk Beethovens a thematic index of all of the works of Ludwig van Beethoven. Although Kinsky died before finishing the work the unfinished volume was purchased by the Bavarian State Library and was eventually completed by musicologist Hans Halm. " from Wikipedia . J. M.
