184216953London: Printed for the Camden Society 1842. Decorative Cloth. Very Good . The very uncommon 1842 1st edition of this original publication of "two curious documents concerning Dr. John Dee" the great 16th century occut philosopher 1527-1609 who devoted much of his life to the study of alchemy divination and Hermetic philosophy. 1 "His Private Diary written in a very small illegible hand on the margins of old Almamacs discovered a few years ago by Mr. W.H. Black in the library of the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford". 2 "A Catalogue of his Library of Manuscripts made by himself before his house was plundered by the populace and now preserved in the library of Trinity College Cambridge". This 1842 volume a slim octavo in its original chocolate-brown boards has held up very nicely. Solid and VG with decorative blindstamping to the panels and still-bright gilt-titling and flourishes along the spine. Just a touch of light bubbling to the rear panel small neat former owner name and 1940 date at the front free endpaper. Apart from this clean as could be with no other writing or markings of any kind internally and a strong very sturdy binding. By any measure an impressive copy of this rare mid 19th century examination through his diary and his personal library of manuscripts of the mind of Dr. John Dee.

41419London: Printed for the Camden Society by John Bowyer Nicholas and Son 1842. First edition small 4to 218 x 165 mm with half-title viii 102 2 35 1pp. private bookplate to front paste-down orig. publishers embossed cloth spine gilt a fine copy. The first publication of the Diary and Catalogue of Manuscripts of the famous 16th century occultist Dr John Dee. Halliwell notes in his introduction that the Catalogue is valuable for the notices which it preserves of several middle-age treatises not now extant and that Dee was said to have expended the vast sum of £ 3000 on this collection. The diary 1577-1601 is preceded by notes of nativities during 1554-75; the catalogue was made in 1573. The final section of the volume comprises Camden Society material including a Report of the council Laws and a full list of members.

1796373398New York 1796. Broadside text in English and French in two columns. 12-1/4x8 inches. Silked and inlaid to a larger sheet very toned extraneous fold at the bottom area of loss at the top largely affecting the title in French. Broadside text in English and French in two columns. 12-1/4x8 inches. A broadside prospectus for a noted allegorical print celebrating the American Revolution. We locate only two known examples of this broadside John Carter Brown Library and Winterthur Museum. The print first published in 1796 and then again with the addition of extensive descriptive text in 1798 used classical iconography to illustrate America's victory in the American Revolution with the gods led by Minerva with the American eagle on her aegis paying honor to American heroes and laying waste to the concepts and persons of monarchy. <br /> <br /> As a French veteran of the American Revolution and transatlantic witness to the French Revolution it is perhaps unsurprising that the artist Renault would choose such subject matter for this dramatic piece. Reilly describes the print and its features in detail: An allegory of liberty flourishing and monarchy and tyranny in decline. In a wooded grove Minerva with a shield bearing the arms of the United States and a flag emblazoned with stars pours libations on an altar fire. Beside her are three female figures. The first Plenty holds a torch to a pile of titles of nobility crowns scepters and other attributes of monarchy. Justice holds a sword and scales and Peace an olive branch. Behind them is a small pyramid on a pedestal inscribed with the names: Hancock Warren Sullivan Putnam Scamel Barber Green Laurens Wooster Mercer and Poor. Two urns on the monument are labeled "B. Franklin" and "Montgomery." To the right is a column surmounted by a seated nude Liberty figure holding a wreath. Below it stands a cherub with a scroll with the words 'Allons enfans de la Patrie.' an open book labeled 'The Rights of Man' a staff and liberty cap and a flag. Behind is a mountainous landscape and town. In the lower right foreground stands another group including a king about to stab himself several other monarchs cringing and a standing woman. In the lower left stand an aged classical priest and a writhing mutilated hydra appear.<br /> <br /> Not much is known about Renault or Verger beyond their production of this print.

Although Kurt Schwitters was one of the most influential artists of international modernism only select portions of his immensely varied body of pictorial work have been investigated thoroughly. And what a body of work it is unlike one ever seen before or after combining bits of found detritus into compositions of tight unexpected melodies and startling tunes. Schwitters was constantly sighting scraps of handbills train tickets newspapers clothing and more on the city streets pocketing them for later use in one of his Merz collages. His intense body of found object constructions stands as one of the premier examples of the ultimtate modern form assemblage of which he has been called the "grandfather." After extensive research worldwide and a complete examination of his artistic estate Schwitters's oeuvre has finally been properly acknowledged documented and prepared for public presentation. The comprehensive Kurt Schwitters Catalogue Raisonna of which the present volume is the third installation includes more than four thousand works from the period between 1905 and 1948 many of them published for the first time. Lost and destroyed works are documented whenever possible. For ease of reference the survey is ordered chronologically; within each year works are sub-divided according to genre. In this third volume are presented creations spanning Schwitters's years in exile 1937 to 1948 when he escaped Nazi Germany to live first in Norway and then in England.

1849136692London: John Russell Smith 1849. First edition of this important little work; scarce in commerce. James Orchard Halliwell later Halliwell-Philipps 1820-1889 antiquary and literary scholar co-founder of both the Percy and Shakespeare Societies is one of the most significant figures in the codification of English nursery rhymes. Popular Rhymes was a sequel to his groundbreaking Nursery Rhymes of England 1842 both of which "would remain standard works on the subject for half a century" Gregory p. 116. Most familiar to modern readers are Halliwell's versions of Tom Thumb and Chicken Licken and his important transcription from chapbook sources of Jack the Giant-Killer see Thomas Green Arthuriana: Early Arthurian Tradition and the Origins of Legend The Lindes Press 2009 p. 148; these are gathered together in the chapter entitled "Fireside Stories". "Much more than a collection the Popular Rhymes offered historical and comparative analysis of its verses and tales. It amplified the scope of the earlier rhyme-book with a section of nineteen folktales obtained both from oral sources and from chapbooks. The chapter rubrics were now much tighter and more definitive: Nursery Antiquities Fireside Nursery Stories Game-Rhymes Alphabet-Rhymes Riddle-Rhymes Nature-Songs Proverb-Rhymes Places and Families Superstition Rhymes Custom-Rhymes and Nursery-Songs. Halliwell conceded his debt to Robert Chalmers's 'elegant work' The Popular Rhymes of Scotland 1826 but also stressed the differences in content. Together the two 'vernacular anthologies' contained nearly all that was worth preserving of 'the natural literature of Great Britain'" Dorson p. 68. Provenance: pencilled ownership inscription to advertisement facing title "H. C. Hart / 89" possibly Henry Chichester Hart 18476-1908 Anglo-Irish botanist and explorer who like Halliwell was also a Shakespearean scholar editing a number of volumes in the Arden edition. Duodecimo in 6s. Original green pebble-grain cloth with blind lateral striations gilt lettered and decorated spine blind panel to sides gilt block of a child reading to front cover all edges gilt slate-green-coated endpapers. Old ink splash to front cover gilt block a little rubbed nick to head of spine. A very good copy. Richard M. Dorson History of British Folklore 2000 volume I Routledge 2000; E.

184738813Brixton Hill: For private circulation only printed by C. and J. Adlard 1847. FIRST EDITION OF THE ALLITERATIVE MORTE ARTHURE one of the great monuments of Arthurian literature and of Medieval English literature. This poem like Gawain and the Green Knight is part of the late Medieval literary movement now called the "alliterative revival". According to Larry Benson the most recent editor of this poem the Alliterative Morte Arthure "lacks the delicacy and balance of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight but the vigor of its narrative the epic sweep of its action and its coolly realistic presentation of fourteenth-century warfare lend the poem an interest of its own." EDITION LIMITED TO JUST 75 COPIES each numbered and signed by the printer of which THIS IS ONE OF ONLY 50 COPIES PRINTED ON THIN PAPER. Beautifully printed in large attractive type on fine wove paper with large margins. Frontispiece engraving by F. W. Fairholt after a manuscript miniature depicting the Round Table. Large 4to. Bound in original cloth beautifully decorated in blind. Uncut. Professionally recased with original endpapers preserved. Frontispiece discolored as always because of paper used and a bit stained.
