1933167972New York: Oxford University Press 1933. Inscribed and translated by his muse First edition in English first printing US issue inscribed by Ruth Draper the translator and lover of De Bosis to the volume's publisher "To G. F. J. Cumberlege with the grateful regards of Ruth Draper Nov. 1933". Cumberlege vice president at Oxford University Press New York from 1928 to 1934 was also a decorated soldier who like De Bosis received great praise for his valiant actions in Italy. Geoffrey Fenwick Jocelyn Cumberlege 1891-1979 "had been a distinguished soldier and to all the critical problems of his publishing career he brought the military virtues of leadership quick decision and positive action" ODNB. He was thrice mentioned in despatches during the First World War and received the Military Cross the Italian Croce de Guerra and numerous other honours. He joined Oxford University Press after his demobilization and was later appointed as vice president of the press's failing branch in New York. Cumberlege revitalized the business to great success; among his publications were distinguished American children's books and T. E. Lawrence's translation of The Odyssey published the year before this translation of De Bosis. Ruth Draper 1884-1956 was an American actress whose passionate love affair with De Bosis was cut short after the writer in true Icarus style was shot down by Mussolini's forces while flying above Rome and hurling thousands of antifascist leaflets down upon the city. Draper never fully recovered from her loss and honoured De Bosis's memory by making this translation. She also had the work translated into French convinced Cumberlege to publish a collection De Bosis had edited The Golden Book of Italian Poetry 1932 and set up the Lauro De Bosis Lectureship in the History of Italian Civilization which continued to fund postdoctoral fellowships at Harvard as recently as 2020. Lauro De Bosis 1901-1931 entered Icaro into a drama competition held at the 1928 Olympic Games where it won a silver medal. Published in 1930 it was a work of Romantic mytho-politics in which the tyrant Minos bore obvious parallels to Mussolini and the hero Icarus to De Bosis himself. On the night before his fatal flight De Bosis wrote a letter a defiant suicide note addressing himself simultaneously to his family to the king to Mussolini to the people of Rome and to posterity entitled "L'Histoire de ma Mort". On the way to the aviation field in the morning he posted this letter to a journalist friend in Belgium with the instruction that it be published in all the newspapers of Europe still free from fascist censorship bringing to the name of Lauro De Bosis a brief flare of world-wide fame for his daring act.
