Mark Twain
Innocents Abroad, or the New Pilgrims Progress, 1st Edition,
|
Inside very good, a few age spots, inscription page stuck to inside cover and partially torn. Rear cover loose of binding, cover long ago reinforced with cloth tape, spine peeling, very worn but honestly in a way I find charming, it feels Samuel Clemens like, aged with character and benevolent scars.See our ratings-don't worry shop happy!Wonderful book.Great personal service gauranteed.

|
Hartford, Connecticut: American Publishing Company, 1869. Fair/good. No Jacket This is a copy of either the second or third state of Mark Twain's second book and first travel book, his classic satire THE INNOCENTS ABROAD, which is still worth reading and still hilarious today. Bound in oriignal brown cloth with gold lettering and decorations on front cover, back cover with blindstamped publisher's logo centered. The points are as follows: pages xvii and xviii of the contents have page numbers for the chapters, the last chapter title on page xviii ends with the word "Conclusion, " there is an engraved portrait of Emperor Napoleon III on page 129, page 643 beginning "CHAPTER XLI. ", text ending at page 651, page 654 [in the section of publisher's advertisements] beginning "PERSONAL HISTORY OF U.S. GRANT" Some of these are second-state points, and some are third-state points. Backstrip is completely gone. Front and back covers detached from body of book. Contents evenly toned, binding sturdy. Clear candidate for rebinding. NOTE: The size and weight of this volume will require special shipping arrangements.

Encuadernación moderna en pasta española con títulos dorados. Buen ejemplar, perteneciente a la Biblioteca de E. Zeballos. No en Suárez. No en Palau. El profesor J. Ramorino en el prefacio nos dice: " El compendio de Física Terrestre cuya traducción presento a la juventud argentina hace parte de los elementos de Historia Natural de Eugenio Sismonda (1815 - 1870), adoptados hace mucho tiempo como libro de texto para la enseñanza de esta ciencia en las principales escuelas de Italia. "Destinado para el uso de jóvenes que carecen aún de los conocimientos primeros de esta importante ciencia, este libro presenta y esplica los diferentes fenómenos de la tierra de manera más sencilla y adaptable a la inteligencia de todos; así la claridad de las explicaciones, la exactitud y concisión de las definiciones y el orden de las materias, dispuestas de modo que demuestran naturalmente la conexión de los diferentes fenómenos entre sí hace a este libro, según mi parecer, uno de los más aptos para la enseñanza elemental en nuestros cursos preparatorios." En tal sentido, algunos de los temas tratados que figuran en el Índice son: Del Aire, Agua, Mar, Tierra, Ventisqueros, Calor interior de la Tierra, etc.

HJORT, PEDER.
Udvalg af Breve fra Mænd og Quinder skrevne gjennem en lang Række Aar til P. Hjort og nu udgivne med biografiske og litterærhistoriske Anmærkninger af Modtageren. Ny samling.
|
- I Kommission hos Wilhelm Prior, København 1869. VIII+546+(2) sider. Udfoldelig illustration med karikatur. Samtidigt, meget kønt, grønt halvlæderbind (Wichmann, Klareb. 14) med rygforgyldning og fire ophøjede bind. Et par enkelte ganske små skrammer på ryg og hjørner; ellers meget velholdt. * * Sorø-litteraten Peder Hjort hørte ikke til den ellers så vennesæle B.S. Ingemanns foretrukne omgang ved akademiet, hvor de begge havde deres virke. Det kan hænge sammen med Hjorts selvhævdende og absolut ikke konfliktsky natur - han lagde hårdt ud i sin pure ungdom med at beskylde Jens Baggesen for plagiat. Det vakte uhyre røre, da han udsendte den første samling breve, han gennem sin litterære karriere havde modtaget fra folk, der havde eller siden fik et navn i Guldalderens kulturelle cirkler. H.C. Andersen tog sig det meget nær at genlæse hårde domme over sine ungdomsværker, og den almindelige forargelse over Hjorts indiskrete omgang med sin korrespondence ville ingen ende tage. I stedet for at gøre afbigt kvitterede Hjort med at udsende endnu et bind breve, i 1869, som sammen med forgængeren i dag giver et meget levende og interessant billede af, hvad der rørte sig i de meningsdannende kredse mellem 1820 og 1860. Her er breve fra bl.a. Carsten Hauch, H.N. Clausen, Johan Ludvig Heiberg og biskop Mynster.**Med stor dedikaton (hele fribladet) fra forfatteren til "Konsejls-Præsident, Greve E. Frijs til Frijsenborg". Greven var konseilspræsident 1865-70, Der er ikke nogen breve fra ham i bogen, men der er bl.a. breve fra Estrup, der var indenrigsminister i Frijs' Ministerium.
