ROBERT SINKER'S COPY WITH HIS SIGNED INSCRIPTION ON FRONT FREE ENDPAPER VERSO. Robert Sinker (1838-1913) was famously Librarian of Trinity College, Cambridge and Chaplain of Trinity College Chapel.

A SPLENDID AND IMPORTANT ASSOCIATION COPY.
Book has minor rubbing to extremities. ; Aramaic Documents published here for the first time came from an unknown site in Egypt and consist of 13 or 14 more or less complete letters and the fragments of others from the Archives of Arsham, satrap of Egypt in the time of Darius II, and may be dated c. 410 B. C. They deal with the administrative problems confronting the satrap's subordinate officers, and with those arising from the relations of these officers with the native population, especially in the matter of their fiefs; one is concerned with the making of an equestrian statue for the writer, one is a letter of thanks for the safe transport of certain goods for personal use, and one is a safe-conduct for a Persian officer proceeding by way of Syria to Egypt.
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (28 x 20 cm). In English. 356 p. B/w and color ills. "Photography in the Ottoman Empire 1839-1923 provides an account of the history of photography in the Ottoman Empire between the years 1839-1923, an important though neglected field in the history of an early photography. The sultans of the Ottoman Empire traditionally shaped the arts of their day, and their enthusiastic reaction to the discovery of photography was to be crucial in the development of photography in the Empire. This third edition of the book published by YEM Publications has been updated and enlarged to incorporate new information gathered over the years and many new photographs that have been added to my archive. I have made sure that the revised text comprises the latest information available on the subject. Many nation states were created in the former Ottoman territories in Europe, Asia and Africa. I have not included the individual photographic histories of these countries but endeavoured to focus primarily on photography within the present boundaries of the Republic of Turkey. A list of photographers who worked in the Ottoman Empire has been provided to assist all those who are interested in the history of photography in Turkey and the Middle East. The names of photographers that I have come across in documents written in Ottoman Turkish script have been given as spelt. The first two editions treated the story of photography in the Ottoman Empire from the announcement of its discovery in 1839 up to 1919, but this new edition has been extended up to the year 1923 when the Turkish Republic was founded. Researching the history of photography is an unending task requiring a lifetime's dedication."

AEB 1874 &tc., listing separate issues only. ~[Librarium of The Hague offers the largest and finest collection of Egyptological offprint monographs in the rare book market. With the acquisition in recent years of multiple Egyptological libraries (those of Prof. Herman te Velde; Prof. Mathieu Heerma van Voss, Prof. Baudouin van de Walle; Prof. Michel Malaise; Prof. Herman De Meulenaere; Egyptologist Jacobus Visser, and former Trustee of the Egypt Exploration Society, Stewart Dale White), we now hold several thousands of rare offprint monographs which were collected over many years by these scholars. Very limited in number when originally issued and fragile by nature, most are by now practically extinct and the scarce survivors are much sought after. We took upon ourselves to collate, catalogue, and identify each item in accordance with Beinlich-Seeber or Annual Egyptological Bibliography, in the hope that this collection will prove useful for scholars and collectors alike.

In 4° (27×21 cm); (2 b.), 64, (2 b.) pp. Legatura editoriale con titolo e caricatura impresso in nero bianco e verde smeraldo al piatto anteriore. Al recto caricatura in smeraldo. Qualche difetto al dorso con piccole spaccature, esemplare un lento ed in parte a fogli sciolti e per il resto in buone condizioni di conservazione. Alla prima carta bianca lunga dedica autografa di Moustapha M. Bey Moukhtar datata 1930. Prima rarissima edizione di questa importante raccolta di caricature del più celebre caricaturista egiziano, Moustapha M. Bey Moukhtar. Nato nel 1883, Mokhtar è scomparso nel 1954 dove una lunga carriera di caricaturista. Poco si sa della sua vita ma recentemente la sua opera è stata recuperata quando, in occasione del 138° anniversario della nascita di Moustafa Moharram Bey Mokhtar, il progetto “Memories of caricature” ha organizzato una settimana di celebrazioni dal tema: “Moustafa Moharram Bey Mokhtar… l’ignoto caricaturista”. Moukhatar è considerato come uno dei più importanti caricaturisti egiziani della prima metà del XX° secolo e come uno dei pionieri del fumetto egiziano. Moustafa Mohrram Mokhtar è uno dei pilastri della moderna arte caricaturale egiziana. Oltre alla sua professione di giudice, pittore ad olio, alla sua vocazione di scultore, incisore, egli ha rappresentato uno degli antenati dell’arte della caricatura in epoca moderna. Il caricaturista fu il primo ad aver raccolto nei libri le sue opere caricaturali, essendo il primo caricaturista egiziano ad aver pubblicato testi dedicati alle sue caricature. Questa del 1926 è la prima opera da lui stampata e raccoglie numerosissime sue caricature realizzate tra 1916 ed il 1926. Ogni caricatura presenta una didascalia che spiega chi sia il personaggio ritratto. L’opera qui presentata è molto apprezzata non solo per il suo aspetto artistico ma per il modo con il quale l’autore riuscì, attraverso i suoi disegni ad illustrare la situazione politica e sociale dell’Egitto nella prima metà del XX° secolo. Giudice di professione fu assai inserito nella vita politica egiziana contando numerosissime conoscenze negli ambienti politici. Molto raro. Very rare.
