Danza di Venere, pastorale... In 8vo (cm 14,3); pergamena rigida recente, taglio colorato antico; pp. (16), 126, (2). Con le armi dei Farnese sul titolo. Ottima copia.PRIMA EDIZIONE. La dedicataria dell'opera, la quattordicenne Camilla Lupi, alla quale sono indirizzati anche alcuni componimenti proemiali di Muzio Manfredi e Giovanni Battista Maganza, interpretò il ruolo di Amarilli durante la rappresentazione della pastorale fatta in presenza di Ranuccio Farnese e di tutta la corte parmense (cfr. L.G. Clubb, Italian Drama in Shakespeare's time, New Haven, 1989, p. 176).La pièce, cominciata sotto gli auspici dell'Accademia degli Olimpici di Vicenza, su richiesta di uno dei suoi membri, Giacomo Rangone, fu portata a termine per conto della madre della dedicataria, Isabella Pallavicini Lupi, marchesa di Soragna, la quale ne finanziò anche la messa in scena per preparare l'ingresso della figlia in società .La trama della pastorale, ispirata alla storia di Cimone narrata nella quinta giornata del Decameron, è ambientata in Sicilia in una vallata vicino al Monte Erice, sulla cui sommità si erge un tempio di Venere. Gli aspetti più innovativi dell'opera sono sostanzialmente due: la complessità della figura del protagonista rispetto agli eterei ed astratti pastori dei drammi precedenti e l'impiego massiccio del coro. Posta strategicamente al centro della terza scena del terzo atto, la danza di Venere, un branle (danza circolare di stampo popolare e di origine medievale, ancora in voga nel Cinquecento come danza di apertura durante le feste), viene eseguita dal coro intonando un inno alla dea (cfr. R. Puggioni, Introduzione, in: A. Ingegneri, La Danza di Venere, Roma, 2002, pp. 9 - 35).A metà fra l'Aminta (1581) del Tasso e il Pastor fido (1590) del Guarini, il dramma pastorale dell'Ingegneri è considerato un «miracoloso modello manieristico» (cfr. R. Scrivano, Manierismi e teatro, in: "La norma e lo scarto. Proposte per il Cinquecento letterario italiano", Roma, 1980, p. 207).Poeta, diplomatico, critico teatrale, cortigiano, autore drammatico, manager di una fabbrica di saponi e segretario di diversi nobiluomini (Alderano Cibo principe di Massa e Carrara, cardinal Cinzio Aldobrandini, Francesco Maria della Rovere, Carlo Emanuele di Savoia e Ferrante II Gonzaga), Angelo Ingegneri acquisì fama di letterato traducendo in italiano i Remedia amoris di Ovidio. Divenne quindi membro dell'Accademia Olimpica di Vicenza e dell'Accademia degli Innominati di Padua. Con l'autorizzazione del duca di Parma curò la prima edizione completa della Gerusalemme liberata (1581) di Torquato Tasso, con il quale fu in stretti rapporti di amicizia. Dedicò il suo poema epico Argonautica a Carlo Emanuele di Savoia e i tre libri Del buon segretario al cardinal Aldobradini. Ma la sua opera più importante resta il trattato Della poesia rappresentativa e del modo di rappresentare le favole sceniche (1598), testo fondamentale nella storia della drammaturgia e della critica teatrale del tardo Rinascimento e del primo Barocco (cfr. M.L. Doglio, Nota biografica, in: "Angelo Ingegneri, Della poesia rappresentativa", Modena, 1989, pp. XXV - XXVIII).M. Cristofari, La tipografia vicentina nel secolo XVI, in: "Miscellanea di scritti di bibliografia ed erudizione in memoria di Luigi Ferrari", Firenze, 1952, p. 199, nr. 79. M.

Fear of Spiders Chicago:: Theodora Press,, 1989.. Edition of 10. 12 x 10" closed, 16’ 8” fully extended (with covers); 18 pages. Accordion structure. Text letterpress printed in 18 point Caslon on Arches Cover. Ten aquatints printed on lightweight Sakamoto. Housed in black clamshell box (13.5 x 11.25 x 1.5") with decorative spider etching used for pastedowns. Interior and edges of clamshell box printed on Sakamoto lightweight paper. The aquatints, close-ups for the most part, suggest the immediacy of arachnophobia. The sharpness of focus both pinpoints the visceral fear and neutralizes it. Childhood terror recalled from the safety of adulthood? Art diffusing experience?Teresa Pankratz: "In a series of ten aquatints and accompanying text, this 'scary bedtime story' examines the titillating qualities of obsessive nighttime fears. Through the visual device of fluidly changing points of view, the reader moves through the darkened bedroom, alternately on the spider’s hairy legs and from behind the child’s fear-crazed eyes. As nocturnal imagination takes over, the text relates that: 'her fear and frenzy became her pleasure.' The child finds herself “becoming” that which she fears most — and is unable to return to an untroubled sleep. [Bookseller: Vamp & Tramp, Booksellers, LLC ]

Waning Summer Providence, Rhode Island:: Ziggurat Press,, 1989.. One-of-a-Kind. 9 x 13 x 1.75"; 16 unnumbered pages. Accordion structure. Six original pen-and-ink drawings by the artist. Titles in script by the artist. Tapa cloth-covered boards with tipped on title on front board. Housed in wooden slipcase with leather title on spine. Feldman's artwork accompanies the 1592 poem by British poet Thomas Nashe(1567 - 1601). The poem appears once handwritten in brown ink on a tipped in sheet of tan paper, which is a visual as well as textual element, and printed on a 6 x 9" laid in sheet of the same paper.Gloria Barone, "Walter Feldman: A Visual Profile" in Point in Time: Walter Feldman Selected Works (Providence, 2010): "Often Feldman's books require few or no words, although the works are never silent. When words are employed, poetry is the likely medium. Feldman's books have paid tribute to the Portuguese poet Fernando Pessoa and American poet Emily Dickinson by incorporating their verse into his work ... The work of poets and friends such as Edwin Honig, Michael Harper, Denise Levertov, James Schevill, and Barton Levi St. Armand also have found their way into Feldman's books. A personal one-of-a-kind work, Waning Summer, is bound in tapa cloth and features exquisite pen and ink drawings of trees near Feldman's country home interspersed with pages containing actual skins shed by a snake on the property that summer. Feldman's books raise provocative questions about what a book or cover is." [Bookseller: Vamp & Tramp, Booksellers, LLC ]

Screenplay]: Sir Drone - Stapled photocopied pages of the handwritten manuscript used as a shooting script, and possibly as a continuity script. No cover sheet, possibly, or even probably, as issued. Quite worn around the edges, staples pulled through in a few instances, and the first and last leaves in danger of detaching, but a sound good copy. There are a few notes in an unknown hand (possibly Pettibon's) excising or emphasizing scenes, and handwritten numbers in the margins breaking the entire film into separate scenes. One of Pettibon's first films, one of four written and directed by him in 1989. According to the IMDB summary the film is about "[t]hree teenagers from the industrial part of Los Angeles [who] try to form a punk rock band in Hollywood." The film featured legendary punk and post-punk rock bass guitarist Mike Watt, and Pettibon also appeared in the film. Pettibon is a renowned artist and filmmaker. From the late 1970s through the mid-1980s, he was closely associated with the punk rock band Black Flag and the record label SST Records, both founded by his older brother Greg Ginn. Pettibon scripts are rare and ephemeral, probably not intended to have been preserved. Pettibon additionally performed with several bands, including Sur Drone.

Bilingual text: German and English. Teresa Pankratz, colophon: "A Morning Prayer was my father's prayer at breakfast. I've taken the liberty of varying the lines as he did when using his prayer at times other than the breakfast table. A Benediction is paraphrased from the King James Version of the New Testament. Julie Katharina Hausmann wrote the text So Nimm Denn Meine Hande in 1862. It is probably better known in our 20th-century churches as words to the hymn Take Thou My Hand O Father. The five aquatints were completed in 1988 after my father's death in March of that year. "The book is dedicated to my father Theodore W. Pankratz (May 20, 1923 to March 27, 1988) who was himself a lover and keeper of things and whose prayers protected our lives." This is the first book by Pankratz created under the imprint Theodora Press. [Bookseller: Vamp & Tramp, Booksellers, LLC]
