Download or read book Catalogue of the Private Library of Mr Adolph Lewisohn Classic Reprint written by Adolph Lewisohn and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Private Library of Mr. Adolph Lewisohn The collection of manuscripts is a very interesting one, including specimens of various schools and countries, well illustrating the art of manuscript illumination. Beginning with an early Thirteenth Century Psalter, on vellum, of the characteristic curious workmanship of the period; and an equally old vellum Psalter of curious German workmanship; and ranging through various periods we find an interesting manuscript in Arabic; an ancient Hebrew Cabalistic manuscript on vellum; several fine old illuminated examples of the Book of Esther written in Hebrew characters; two splendid Horae on vellum, with beautiful large miniatures; Martial's Epigrams, an Italian manuscript on the finest thin white vellum; a rare manuscript Mochsor in Hebrew characters; two Persian manuscripts with a large number of miniatures beautifully executed in gold and colors; an early rubricated Seneca; and continuing down to a Nineteenth Century Spanish manuscript on vellum, relating to heraldry. These fine examples are all illuminated and decorated or rubricated, and are all in an excellent state of preservation. Incunabula The collection is rich in early printed books, and Incunabula, or books printed in the half century following the invention of printing, are well represented. It is gratifying to find that the earliest was printed in Mainz, from which place printing spread through Germany to Italy. The splendid copy of Cicero's Officis was printed in Mainz in 1466 by Johannes Fust and Petrus de Gernsshem, the former of whom is supposed to have shared in the invention of printing with Gutenberg.

Download or read book Lewis Carroll Among His Books written by Charlie Lovett and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Lutwidge Dodgson--known better by his pseudonym, Lewis Carroll--was a 19th century English logician, mathematician, photographer, and novelist. He is especially remembered for his children's tale Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and its sequel, Through the Looking Glass. By the time of Dodgson's death in 1898, Alice (the integration of the two volumes) had become the most popular children's book in England. By the time of his centenary in 1932, it was perhaps the most famous in the world. This book presents a complete catalogue of Dodgson's personal library, with attention to every book the author is known to have owned or read. Alphabetized entries fully describe each book, its edition, its contents, its importance, and any particular relevance it might have had to Dodgson. The library not only provides a plethora of fodder for further study on Dodgson, but also reflects the Victorian world of the second half of the 19th century, a time of unprecedented investigation, experimentation, invention, and imagination. Dodgson's volumes represent a vast array of academic interests from Victorian England and beyond, including homeopathic medicine, spiritualism, astrology, evolution, women's rights, children's literature, linguistics, theology, eugenics, and many others. The catalogue is designed for scholars seeking insight into the mind of Charles Dodgson through his books.
