159260391Rostock Stephan Mölleman 1592 4to. In contemporary limp vellum. Extremities with light soiling and miscolouring. Front free end-paper annotated in contemporary hand. Three leaves T-Tiii with repairs with loss of text and woodcut. Title-page and colophone supplied in facsimilie. Internally with light occassional browning but in general good condition. 272 ff f. 272 erroneously printed as f. 273 with 44 woodcut illustrations in text. <br/><br/><em>Later Rostock edition of the famous epic. Circulating from the 12th-century and derived in part from Aesop Reynard the Fox is one of the most popular and enduring beast-epics. Reynard the Fox is a collection of fables that originated in medieval Europe and the exact authorship is unknown. The stories were likely passed down orally before being written down in various versions over the centuries. The fables with the wily fox as a central character lent themselves to satire and it became a vehicle used by the Protestant reformers and others. The Low-German version first appeared at Lubeck in 1498 and the Rostock editions which followed from 1517 facilitated the spread of the epic towards the east. The woodcuts had previously illustrated the 1539 Rostock edition of which 36 are attributed to Erhard Altdorfer. Stylistically they depend on the first Lubeck and Rostock editions. </em> hardcover

Subtle toning to margins of first and last leaves light wear and handling to wrappers with a few very faint splash marks to front cover which is pulling away slightly from the upper staple; contents clean complete; Very Good or better. Offered together with a set of unbound proof sheets for a later revised edition apparently unpublished of the same title - this one bearing an introduction not printed in earlier editions dated November 1988. Mild handling else Fine housed in a dark yellow clasp-bound envelope with "Fox / Proofs" written in pencil in an undetermined hand.<br /> <br /> Offered together with four pieces of correspondence between Fox Jeffrey Weinberg John Martin and Charles Bukowski regarding publication:<br /> <br /> 1. 2pp typed letter signed from Fox to Jeffrey Weinberg dated October 31 1985 on a sheet of Fox's pale grey laid paper stationary measuring 8.5" x 11". 61 lines signed "Hugh / Connie" in red pencil. Fox relays some information regarding the publication history of Charles Bukowski: A Critical and Bibliographical Study expressing his interest in Weinberg publishing a revised edition and soliciting his input on any changes he felt necessary. He also goes on at length quite candidly regarding long history as a transvestite his recent visit to "a sex-change doctor" in New York undergoing hormone therapy and the tension between "being MALE FATHER IRISH CATHOLIC TEACHING AT A CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY and feeling FEMALE MOTHER PAGAN all my life.". Old horizontal folds from mailing some handling else well-preserved.<br /> <br /> 2. Typed letter signed from John Martin to Jeffrey Weinberg dated June 16 1989 on a single sheet of Black Sparrow Press stationary measuring 8.5" x 11". 26 lines signed "Sincerely John." Bukowski's friend and long-time publisher mentions discussing Weinberg's plan to publish a revised edition of Fox's Charles Bukowski: A Critical and Bibliographical Study sending him a copy of the book to gauge his thoughts. "Hank called to say that he had always disliked the book and didn't want it reprinted. I explained to him that we had no control over the narrative portions of the book but that we could withhold permission to quote from his poems." Old horizontal folds from mailing some handling one small spot of correction fluid and a faint diagonal crease. <br /> <br /> 3. Photocopied computer-generated TLS from Bukowski to John Martin dated 6-16-89 on white bond measuring 8.5" x 11". The text is brief confirming Bukowski's thoughts on republication of Fox's work: "I'd rather that the Hugh Fox work on my early books not be reprinted. I find the work both hasty and a bit dull. No good purpose could come of a reprint." Old horizontal folds from mailing with some mild handling.<br /> <br /> 4. Photocopied TLS from Fox to Jeffrey Weinberg printed on white bond measuring 8.5" x 11" dated June 25 1989 and signed in ink "Best Hugh". A brief but strongly-worded letter responding to both Martin's and Bukowski's sentiments regarding republication of his book. "Poets and other writers have no censorship control over what is written about them -- including reasonably short quotes from their works. Bukowski has no say over the reprint of this book. When I first sent it to him he was delighted by it. Whatever the old poet now on the brink of death thinks lashing out in anger at Time and Dissolution is totally irrelevant. My advice is -- GO AHEAD AND PUBLISH THE BOOK AND DON'T LET EMBITTERED LITTLE HITLERS DESTROY THE FIRST AMENDMENT." Old horizontal folds from mailing with some light handling.<br /> <br /> The first critical and bibliographical study of the works of Charles Bukowski predating Sanford Dorbin's A Bibliography of Charles Bukowski published by the Black Sparrow Press the same year. Fox 1932-2011 was an author and scholar who taught American literature at Loyola University in Los Angeles. In addition to critical studies of Bukowski and Lyn Lyfshin they wrote numerous volumes of poetry under the name Connie Fox and in 1968 founded Ghost Dance: The International Quarterly of Experimental Poetry which they edited for 27 years. The first edition of his critical work on Bukowski is uncommon in commerce and this is the first example we've seen signed by Bukowski himself. Abyss Publications unknown

195753749New York: Harry N. Abrams 1957. First edition. Hardcover. vg to near fine. Quarto. xxxviii 151pp. 1. Illustrated purple and red dust jacket. Beige cloth boards with illustration in black on the front cover black lettering on the spine. Illustrated endpapers. Original torn publisher's belly band laid in at the interior front cover. This unique copy contains two inscriptions to former president of Israel Zalman Shazar 1889-1974 in pen on the title page.

Chagall writes: "In honor of the president and my good friend Z. Shazar with love Marc Chagall Jerusalem 1964". It can be assumed that Shazar's friend gave him the book as a gift and Marc Chagall who was present at the time also inscribed it to him.<br /> <br /> This monograph showcases Marc Chagall's graphic work from the years 1922-1957 and includes a total of 148 images reproducing the artist's work. Most images are in b/w with six in color and can be divided roughly into five major stages of Chagall's career: etchings for his autobiography - illustrations for Gogol's "Dead Souls" 1923-27 - etchings for La Fontaine's "Fables" 1927-30 - illustrations for the Bible - his post-war lithographs. All images are finely printed mostly in high quality offset with a few b/w images being lithographic.<br /> <br /> Dust jacket with some minor to light rubbing and creasing to extremities. Binding with very minor age toning along the bottom edge of the front cover. A few light stains to the top edge of the book block. Interior clean throughout with book block tight overall.
