1538139083Wittenberg: Hans Weiss 1538. modern quarter mottled sheep over cloth-covered boards gilt on spine. 8vo. modern quarter mottled sheep over cloth-covered boards gilt on spine. 24 leaves. First edition of a work on the earliest Christian creeds; first issue with title dated 1536 and corrected in manuscript to read 1538. A very scarce Martin Luther Pamphlet. Benzing 3264. Knaake 766. Kuczynski 1794. Title within woodcut historiated border showing Adam and Eve preacher Luther at pulpit naked figures entering Hell looking back at Moses and the Tables and St. George slaying a dragon. <BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Luther's writing deals with the three oldest creeds the Apostolic the Athanasian and the Ambrosian "Te deum laudamus" translated into German by Luther. The beautiful woodcut border shown in Johannes Luther plate 53 shows the fall and redemption: Adam and Eve at the tree of wisdom eating apples that the serpent offers them. What follows is the drastic expulsion from paradise by horned devils and the severe lords Moses and Aaron who reproachfully show the tablets of the law with the ten commandments. On the right then the crucifixion of Christ who takes away the sins again and below the risen one who defeats the devil with a large spear Moses' tablets of the law also break - an allusion to the time of the New Covenant "Sub gratia" which replaces the "tempus sub lege" the Old Testament covenant of man with God.<BR> <br /> <BR> <br /> Hans Weiss was the first printer in Berlin in 1540.

1968163661968. Civil RightsMLK Jr.Vietnam WarAnti-War King Martin Luther Jr. Speeches by The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. About the War in Vietnam 1968 marks a decisive and controversial moment in the Civil Rights Movement when the famed preacher and activist voiced a strong opposition to American military intervention in Vietnam. Delivered between April 1967 and February 1968 these addresses articulate King's moral theological and political indictment of the Vietnam War at a moment when such criticism risked alienating liberal allies and federal support. In speeches titled "Vietnam and the Struggle for Human Rights" "The Domestic Impact of the War in Vietnam" and "Vietnam Is Upon Us" King frames the war as an issue inseparable from racial injustice and economic exploitation at home asserting "my conscience leaves me no other choice." The volume reflects the final year of King's life when he increasingly linked civil rights poverty and global anti-colonial struggle into a unified critique of American power.<br /> <br /> King Martin Luther Jr. Speeches by The Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. About the War in Vietnam. New York: Clergy and Laymen Concerned About Vietnam 1968. Printed April 1968. The pamphlet gathers three speeches originally delivered April 1967 November 11 1967 and February 6 1968 and was issued under the auspices of Clergy and Laymen Concerned About Vietnam the interfaith organization King helped organize in 1965. Also included is a folded letter from the organization dated October 1968 introducing the collection and listing members.<br /> <br /> Published only weeks after King's assassination in April 1968 the collection preserves his sustained argument that the war represented a "nightmarish conflict" draining moral authority and resources from the struggle against poverty and racism. By framing Vietnam as both a foreign policy crisis and a moral catastrophe King publicly aligned the Civil Rights Movement with global antiwar activism intensifying divisions within American political life. The inclusion of the October 1968 organizational letter further situates the pamphlet within an active interfaith network mobilizing clergy and laity against U.S. intervention. Light tanning to extremities otherwise clean and well preserved. Overall condition near fine. A contemporaneous documentary record of King's most politically consequential and controversial public stance during the final year of his leadership. unknown
18550001548SAGAMORE PLYMOUTH MASSACHUSETTS MASS MA. Good. 1855. On offer is an interesting original pre Civil War and Civil War era manuscript diary journal and catchall scrapbook handwritten and compiled by we believe Luther Douglas b.1828 and then later his son Charles Everett Douglas b.1852 between 1855 and November 1862. Casual research finds Luther born in Plymouth and Charles in Sagamore Massachusetts. This is backed up with many entries suggesting easy visits and trips to Plymouth. The book is marked "Hired Mens Book" but that is crossed out and then is full of Douglas' writings and clippings save for a couple of pages used by a child Charles it appears. This unusual book has approximately 122 pages with entries a short scrap area: 10 pages have poetry cut from newspapers and/or magazines covering up the journal entries dated from January 1855 or so. This is followed by three pages of entries and then scraps on 19 Presidents not in chronological order are pasted down covering other entries. These were placed later as evidenced by the Abraham Lincoln clipping mentioning the President's martyrdom. The balance is a personal journal and diary centering around work related entries mostly for Sarah or Jacob Perry then Handel Tripp and many many more visits purchases trips and much more. There are a small number of ephemeral inserts one of particular genealogical interest as it is a slip of paper with the note: 'one man's family'. The book itself is a board covered book measuring approximately 6 1/4" x 7 3/4".
