35 pages. Plus a large fold-out colour map measuring approximately 11 x 9 inches (28 x 23cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. An important first-hand narrative of St George Littledale - a significant explorer of Tibet and the Pamir, who contributed several outstanding valuable reports to the Royal Geographical Society - on the intricacies of travel across Pamir in 1890, containing extensive details of his travel route, unbearable cold and fascinating depiction of the Kirgiz tribe. Also included are some notes contributed by Sir Douglas Freshfield, Sir Peter Lumsden and Dr Leitner. Accompanied by a spectacular fold-out colour map illustrating the author's route from Khokand to Gilghit. Littledale and his wife Teresa were known in their time as the greatest British Central Asia travellers of the nineteenth century. Littledale is also considered by many hunters to be one of the greatest big game hunters of all time. He hunted horned game, the sheep and goats, that lived in the mountains of the northern hemisphere, and he collected for the Natural History Museum in London. In 1889 he wanted to cross the Pamirs from north to south from Russia into India. Although the Foreign Office approved his proposal, the Government of India rejected it, so the Littledales changed their plans and went to Russian Central Asia and Mongolia. In 1890 permission was granted for the Pamirs crossing, the first of the Littledales’ three greatest journeys. It was the height of the Great Game, a cold war between Russia and Britain over the vast lands known as Central Asia. The rivalry between the two powers was approaching its climax in that remote desolate region and the Littledales’ feat created a sensation in the press.
8vo. 63 pages. Text is in German. This is a complete monthly issue, containing the above mentioned account. Attractively bound booklet style in recent blue paper covers with label. This issue contains an extensive and detailed sketch of the towns Tashkent and Khiva, drawing from contemporary Russian sources printed in St. Petersburg. Details include economy and average incomes, religion and customs, government, and military statistics, descriptions of a cannon foundry, a palace allegedly pillaged by Turkmen, and more. A caravan route from Orenburg to Khiva is also revealed, with mention of Karakalpakstan, Kyrgyzstan, Mangyshlak, the Aral Sea, Ural river, Caspian Sea, and Amu Darya. This account pre-dates the 1873 Russo-Khivan War by 69 years. These are the original pages printed in 1804, and NOT a reprint. This narrative is from a rare multi-volume geographical and scientific journal titled "Allgemeine Geographische Ephemeriden", which issued fifty volumes from 1798-1816 and which encompassed critical contemporary topics of geography and astronomy. Adam Christian Gaspari and Franz Xaver von Zach were editors of this important scientific journal.
10 pages. Plus a fold-out colour map, measuring approximately 14 x 10.5 inches (36 x 27cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. This is a highly fascinating travel account of the little known Russian Lapland, bounded by Finland, Norway, the Murmans and White Seas, and the Gulf of Kandalaks, sometimes called the Kola Peninsula. The author covers various aspects of this region, the Orography, the lakes, the marshes, ice-free Fjord and harbours, fisheries, colonization, and the inhabitants and their religious beleifs. Interesting speculation of the manners and customs of the inhabitants of the Russians, Lapps, Quaens and the Karelians is provided by Temple. According to him, Russians were traders and speculators, the Lapps lived by hunting, fishing, and the produce of their reindeer, and the Quaens and Karelians were agriculturists. Also provides a brief description of the town of Kola, which was almost destroyed in the bombardment of 1854. Accompanied by a beautiful detailed map, marking the boundary line of Finland and Norway, showing the Russian, Karelian and Lappish villages, Lappish chapels and fishing stations.
17 pages. Plus a large fold-out colour map, measuring approximately 13.5 x 15.5 inches (34 x 39.5cm). Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. The author was only given a choice to sail on a vessel, "Annie", that was undoubtedly unsuitable for navigating the hostile Norwegian coast. Temple faces many dangers and after much hard work, he provides an illuminating hydrographical report with great detail. Accompanied by a large color map, showing the depths of the ocean. The coast of Norway is of great scientific and commercial importance, not only for its own sake, but as the connecting link between Great Britain, the European Polar Sea, and Siberia, and at a single glance the numerous harbours in tempting proximity to the latest "scientific frontier" in Scandanavia is sufficient to show that it is also of political importance.
8vo., with 6 coloured plates (4 double-page) and endpaper map; pictorial cloth, gilt back, red top, a fine copy in publisher's board slip-case.
8vo, br. ed. 219pp. Yurii Mamleev’s “necrophiliac variant” of the Underground is the starting-point for Tigountsova’s “third way” in Russian prose. This is an a-Soviet way (neither pro- nor dissident), connected to the paradox of Russian space – which goes on forever, even though every human being seems cramped and stuck away in corners or prison cells. Tigountsova is good with this parameter. As she notes, “even the metaphysical is cramped.” Mind, house, homeland are analogues of one another. Why do walls constructed to contain space in the mind /house /homeland of Russia and Russian literature so rarely lead to coziness, manageability, efficiency, but instead to demonic possession through crevices and shabby yellow wallpaper? In Tolstaia and Petrushevskaia, this focus on distorted, deprivatized yellow space creates a sense of vulnerability and terror. Full of observations on color and insect symbolism, her study ends with provocative inquiries into Dostoevskian post-modernism as the physically ugly brought about by distortion and juxtaposition of fragments. Here we see the legacy of Romanticism, but far more crooked than anything dreamed by Bakhtin. Caryl Emerson, Princeton University

In-8, broché, couverture de papier fort, tranches mouchetées (rel. moderne), (8), 152 p. Edition originale. L'auteur analyse la situation géopolitique pour préconiser un changement radical dans la diplomatie française: sortir de la Sainte-Alliance et choisir de "garder une neutralité imposante entre les deux suprématies rivales [Russie et Grande-Bretagne] (…) et s'élever au rang d'une domination intermédiaire indispensable pour l'équilibre de l'Europe" (p. 148). Dans un post-scriptum composé au courant des événements dramatiques de cette année 1827, l'auteur appelle à un "nouveau système politique" en France, "unique moyen d'affranchir notre pays de la tyrannie des jésuites, de secouer le joug des dominations étra'ngères et de prolonger la paix du continent". Joseph-Victor Aubernon (1783-1851) avait été officier des guerres d'Empire, ancien député, un moment diplomate et plusieurs fois préfet. Quelques rousseurs éparses. Bon exemplaire.
