OSIRIS AND THE EGYPTIAN RESURRECTION London and New York: Philip Lee Warner and G. P. Putnan's Sons, 1911. 2 volumes. First edition, issue with the imprint for America, identical to the Medici Society printing and from the same sheets and with the bindings executed in England and identical to the English issue. With over 200 illustrations after drawings from Egyptian papyri and monuments, including 4 plates in collotype, two large folding plates and a large folding frontispiece for each volume in colour. 8vo, publisher’s original red cloth, spines lettered in gilt and with gilt vignettes, upper covers lettered in gilt and with gilt stamped pictorial vignettes. xxxv, 404; viii, 440, including index pp. A fine, bright, and handsome set, still largely unopened and essentially pristine internally, the cloth nearly as fine but for some extremely minor evidence of shelving. SCARCE FIRST EDITIONS, this imprint identical to the Medici Society printing but with more gilt stamping on the otherwise identical bindings. Both issues are from the same sheets all printed by Harrison and Son in England. “In this work by Dr. Budge, the author attempts to investigate the history of Osiris and the dogma of resurrection in Ancient Egypt. As Dr. Frazer found in ‘The Golden Bough’ the central point for incomparable studies of Religions and myths, so---taking Osiris as the centre of religion of Egypt---this investigation assumes the form of a history of the beliefs in heaven and hell, of African eschatology, and a description of the other world. The cult of Osiris is African from beginning to end, a thesis readily proved by the statements concerning the religion of the modern African peoples made by travelers who have lived in Africa during the last three centuries. The modern people could not borrow from Egypt for Ancient Egypt died 2000 years ago. As these religious beliefs are identical with those of the ancient Egyptians, it seems to follow that they are so because they are the product of the indigenous African mind. Dr. Budge, therefore, tries to explain, by the beliefs of the modern African, the old African cult of the spirit ancestor who took upon himself flesh, lived and died on earth, and rose from the dead. In this work---it is believed for the first time---the facts embodied by the Pyramid Texts, written B.C. 3500, are used in a connected fashion, with special application to the rise and growth of the cult of Osiris. In all important passages, the original text is given. Reference to, and comparison with, modern Christian beliefs is carefully avoided; no deductions are drawn, and the Author has taken care not to offend the susceptibilities of any Believer†[Publisher].

Klacht van Oisin [&] Leven en Lied [&] Troosten'. - Origineel handschrift. 20,4 x 16,0 cm. Acht bladen. Alleen recto. Niet gesigneerd. Niet gedateerd [1911]. Met een enkele inktveeg. Vouw.* Drie vroege verzen van Roland Holst, waarvan het eerste verreweg het bekendst is. De dichter, die van jongs af aan gefascineerd was door Keltische mythen en sagen, schreef met 'Klacht van Oisin' zijn eerste, verhalende gedicht waarin de oud-Ierse stof is verwerkt. Het lange gedicht herinnert tevens aan Yeats' 'Wanderings of Oisin'. 'Klacht van Oisin' werd evenwel door Roland Holst zelf niet in een (verzamel)bundel opgenomen.Deze drie gedichten in handschrift waren bestemd voor de redactie van De Gids, in welk tijdschrift ze in 1912 zouden worden gepubliceerd. Een drukproef van die publicatie, met een enkele verbetering in de kantlijn, is bijgevoegd. [Bookseller: Antiquariaat Fokas Holthuis ILAB]

[Manuscrits] Règle musicale de transposition 1911-1914. sous chemise 1911-1914, 1911-1914, , , sous chemise, Plus de 180 documents autographes ou tapuscrits ayant trait à l'invention, la fabrication et à l'essai de commercialisation de la règle de transposition musicale élaborée, en 1911, par Jules Antonyn Brisson, ingénieur des Mines de Béthune à Bully-les-Mines dans le Pas-de-Calais. Il s'agit de dessins et descriptions de l'inventeur ayant servi à l'établissement du brevet, d'avis de délivrance du brevet et de ses 2 additions, de documents officiels, et de la correspondance de Brisson avec son cabinet d'avocats gérant ses droits en France et à l'étranger, avec divers fabricants d'instruments (Ingénieur Morin à Paris, Albert Nestler à Baden, Dennert & Pape à Altona, L'électrogravure Belge et Tavernier-Gravet), avec des revendeurs (la Maison Gras à Lille), et avec des imprimeurs (Paul Dutilleux à Douai). Les documents, classés dans le sens inverse de la chronologie, donc de janvier 1914 à décembre 1911, retracent les étapes qui ne permirent pas à Antonyn Brisson de commercialiser sa règle musicale. Alors qu'il obtint un brevet français de l'Office National de la Propriété Industrielle le 24 février 1912 (brevet déposé le 15 décembre 1911), que Paul Michon, gérant des prestigieux établissements Tavernier-Gravet accepta, dans un premier temps, de fabriquer sa Règle de transposition, Brisson échoua rapidement dans la commercialisation de son invention. La présente compilation nous en donne les 5 principales explications : il se brouilla avec Tavernier-Gravet, dû essuyer un refus de la part de l'Allemagne pour l'obtention d'un brevet allemand, ne parvint pas à faire fabriquer en Belgique sa Règle alors qu'il avait obtenu un brevet belge, perdit un proche (ce qu'il l'affecta beaucoup à la fin de l'année 1913), et, alors qu'il était en bon terme avec une importante Manufacture d'instruments de Musique localisée à Lille, la Maison Gras, qui, à partir de l'année 1913, réussit à promouvoir sa Règle, le 3 novembre 1913 un prénommé Bardey, inventeur d'un "appareil transpositeur" (dont le brevet avait été déposé le 22 février 1911) utile pour "déterminer instantanément la tonalité dans laquelle chaque instrument doit être joué", fait remarquer, par lettre, à Antonyn Brisson que son "transpositeur a été copié" par ce dernier. "Toutefois, ajoute-t-il, si vous voulez rester seul à exploiter cette invention, je serais peut-être disposé à prendre un arrangement amiable avec vous". Brisson semble ne lui avoir jamais répondu...

THE FORTY QUESTIONS OF THE SOUL and THE CLAVIS or KEY John M. Watkins, 21 Cecil Court, Charing Cross Road, London 1911 - First impression of the revised edition and first edition thus. Translated by John Sparrow Reissued by C. J. B. With Emendations by D. S. Hehner. ***Illustrated with folding map of Böhme's 'Philosophic Globe'. ***Very good in dark bottle-green cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to spine and front board. Deckled fore-edge and bottom edge of text-block (rough-cut, as called for). Offsetting to front and rear boards. Very faint unobtrusive violet stamp "Presentation Copy" to top of title-page. No inscriptions. Edges of boards slightly rubbed. Head and tail of spine slightly rubbed and creased. Corners of boards rubbed and slightly bumped. Very slight sporadic unobtrusive foxing to prelims. Interior pages clean. Spine tight. Liii prelim-pages plus 310 pages and To The Clavis or Key vi-prelim-pages plus 52 text-pages plus two-page catalogue of the books written by Jacob Boehme to rear. 246mm x 162mm. ***The Forty Questions and the Clavis were the first of Boehme's works published in English by John Sparrow. They appeared together in one volume, quarto, 17.7cm. x 13.7 cm., in the year 1647. The few copies of this volume that have come down to this present day are not exactly identical: they exhibit two different title-pages; one here is reprinted; the other, with the same wording, but not the same type throughout, has the imprint "London, Printed by Matth. Simmons, in the yeare 1647." In the copies exhibiting the latter title-page, also, the piece "To the Earnest Lovers of wisdom" is not included, so far as I am aware. Otherwise all the copies are exactly alike. ***In 1665 Sparrow published a new edition, a duodecimo, 13.5cm. x 8.2cm. This translation differs slightly from the former one, and, strange to say, the 1647 version is, on the whole, the better of the two. ***In the present reprint the 1647 edition has been followed very closely. Occasionally words from the 1665 edition have been preferred; and in three places whole paragraphs have been adopted from it (see pp. 8, 43, 129); not on account of the superiority of the translation, but because the symbols accompanying these paragraphs do not appear in the earlier edition. In these instances I have followed the example of George Ward, the editor of the 18th-century reprint, usually known as "Law's edition," of the Forty Questions.' (Quote from the prefatory note, Purley February 5th, 1911 by C.J.B.). ***Jakob Boehme (Böhme) [575-1624] was a German Christian mystic and theologian whose writings explored the nature of sin, evil and redemption. Boehme thought like the Lutherans that humanity had fallen from a state of divine grace to a state of sin and suffering, that the forces of evil included fallen angels who had rebelled against God, and that God's goal was to restore the world to a state of grace. However unlike the Lutherans he rejected "sola fide". Also he described the Fall as a necessary stage in the evolution of the Universe. His theology is difficult, based on a mystical vision which he reinterpreted and reformulated. Poets such as John Milton, Ludwig Tieck, Novalis and William Blake were inspired by Böhme's writings. Coleridge, in his Biographia Literaria, writes of Böhme with admiration. Böhme was highly thought of by the German philosophers Baader, Schelling and Schopenhauer. Hegel stated that Böhme was "the first German philosopher. C. S. Lewis and Jorge Luis Borges were also influenced by Jacob Boehme. First impression of the revised edition and first edition thus in its original boards in very nice, complete collectable condition (including folding map of the Philosophic Globe). **Of interest to collectors and scholars of rare esoteric and philosophical antiquarian titles and the writings of Jacob Boehme. ***Scarce.***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. [Attributes: First Edition; Hard Cover] [Bookseller: Orlando Booksellers]

Alcune firme di possesso ms. alla prima carta bianca. Esemplare marginoso e ben conservato.

Scrisse e illustrò una quarantina di libri per l'infanzia e diresse i principali periodici per ragazzi". [Bookseller: Studio Bibliografico Benacense]

Romance, op. 4 - Autograph Musical Quotation Used; Like New/Used; Like New. A scarce AMQS from the important violinist and influential pedagogue, teacher of Elman, Heifetz, Milstein, Zimbalist, Parlow, Schumsky and many others. Auer has penned the first three measures of his Romance in F major for violin and piano (op. 4), which was recorded a few years later by the young Heifetz in 1911. Signed and inscribed to the British violinist and composer "Miss Eva Spalding" (1882 - 1969), and dated London, July 8, 1908. On a small calendar leaf dated May 29. Top edge folded under; tape remnant at the left edge and on the verso, otherwise in very good condition. 5 x 2.5 inches (12.9 x 6.1 cm).<br>Together with a reproduction of a portrait photograph signed and inscribed to Carl Flesch and dated 1911. Thumbtack hole and light wear; overall fine. 4.75 x 7 inches (12.4 x 17.6 cm).<br style=""><br style="">Leopold Auer spent nearly fifty years in St. Petersburg and exerted a decisive influence on the Russian violin school, following Vieuxtemps and Wieniawski as solo violin at the Imperial Ballet. Arensky, Glazunov, Taneyev and Tchaikovsky wrote their most important violin compositions for him. As for Tschaikovsky's violin concerto, Auer refused the dedication, declaring it technically awkward and too long! After a few revisions to the violin part, he eventually played this monumental violin work in 1893, shortly before the composer's death. <br style=""> [Bookseller: Schubertiade Music & Arts]
