Very Good German Original wrappers. 12mo. (16 x 11 cm). In German. 71, [1] p., [12] unnumbered b/w plates. Very rare first edition (from first 1st-5th thousand impressions and both in scarce institutional holdings and market rarity) of this fourth book of "A thousand and one nights" series, titled 'The Caliph Harun Al-Rashid' with fine illustrations edited by Heinrich Wolgast, (1860-1920), a German educator and pedagogue. Close to social democratic ideology, Heinrich Wolgast became known as a literary pedagogue. He criticized a "specific" juvenile literature which, as trivial mass literature, only satisfies the need for entertainment, and called for an artistic education of the youth through aesthetically demanding literature. In 1888 Wolgast became a co-founder of the "Youth Writings Committee" of the "Association of Hamburg Elementary School Teachers". As a co-founder of the "United German Examination Committees for Youth Writings", he acted from 1896 to 1912 as the editor of the magazine "Jugendschriften-Warte". This small and very collectible book published by Otto Zimmermann reflects the pedagogical concerns rather than the true harsh, erotic, and imaginary atmosphere of the Arabian Nights. Only one printed copy in OCLC 76105214 (German National Library, Leipzig = Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Leipzig).
Very Good Russian Original orange cloth bdg. The illustration depicted hunting Zulus between the titles of Cyrillic and Latin ones. Demy 8vo. (22,5 x 15 cm). The text is fully in Russian. Fading on cloth. Otherwise a good copy. [iii], 246, [2] p., 10 color plates and many unnumbered illustrations (b/w and color). First edition of the first-ever comprehensive compilation of Zulu tales in the Soviet Union, printed as the first volume in the African Literature Series. The book contains 43 selected tales of Zulus, with an index and "with an introductory article, translated and annotated by I. L. Snegireva; illustrated by N. A. Ushin [OCLC]". Nikolai Alexeyevich Ushin (1898-1942) was a Soviet graphic artist, theatre designer, and book illustrator. In the 1920s, Ushin began designing theatrical decorations for stage performances. He creatively adapted the themes of medieval Russian painting and Palekh miniature. As a particularly recognized work by him, Ushin illustrated the Russian translation of One Thousand and One Nights published in eight volumes by Academia. His illustrations for One Thousand and One Nights were awarded the gold medal at the 1937 Paris Exposition. Ushin also made lithographs and bookplates. OCLC 869825603 / 28384126.
