Flatey Book; Viking Documents. PRE-COLUMBIAN HISTORICAL TREASURES 1000-1492. [THE FLATEYJARBOK]. The Flatey Book and Recently Discovered Vatican Manuscripts Concerning America as Early as the Tenth Century. Documents now Published for the First Time, which Establish Beyond Controvers
(T. H. Smart for) Norroena Society, London, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Berlin, New York: 1908. 1908, Hardcover 176 p. Illustrated with (lithographed) facsimiles of early Icelandic and Latin manuscripts. 4to. 31 cm. Very handsome original full cloth binding, decorated in silver and black. Edges uncut. Mildly XLib. Though it abounds in contradictions, 'The Flatey Book' (along with 'Hauk's Book' - also included in part here) is the chief repository of facts concerning the North American Vinland voyages of the Norsemen. Completed around 1380, the actual manuscript of this collection of Icelandic sagas was presented to the Danish King in 1662. According to this version, Biarni Heriulfsson, on a voyage from Iceland to Greenland around 985, was blown off course and sighted new lands to the south-west. Fifteen years later Leif Ericsson set out from Greenland in search of the lands that Biarni had seen, and found them. These he named: Helluland (Flat-stone-land); Markland (Forestland); and Vinland (Wineland). After his return, successive expeditions visited the new lands. In all probability, the Vinland they discove red now belongs to some part of southern Nova Scotia (though some claim it for Rhode Island). This collection of manuscripts and translations into English and Danish is edited by Rasmus Bjorn Anderson (1846-1936). It is augmented and supported by several very interesting texts from the Vatican, about the Catholic Church in America Greenland and before the time of Columbus. These were discovered in 1902, and first exhibited at the Louisiana Purchase Exposition (1904). Reading the Flatey sagas, we find that the grapes of Vinland were discovered in Winter; by Leif's foster-father, Tyrker the German; who got drunk from eating the fruit; which grew on trees large enough for building timber. One wonders why they did not stay? A fine copy of this important text about the Discover of America by Norsemen. W150

They soon became the premier technical and industrial publishers in the nation.

Cover somewhat soiled, but still a very good copy. A numbered edition, limited to 2000 copies overall. Julius Pinkas Pascin (1885-1930) was born in Bulgaria and studied art at a young age. He arrived in Paris in 1905 after stays in Vienna, Munich and Berlin where he worked as an illustrator for several newspapers, notably 'Simplicissimus' and 'Lustige Blatter'. Dressed as a dandy, he became a notorious figure in Montparnasse and Montmartre. It was after a trip to the U.S during the First World War that he produced numerous paintings, including many attractive nudes, over a period of 10 years. Pascin worked and traveled intensely and finally committed suicide in his Paris studio. Considered an important artist of the School of Paris, original art by Pascin tends to fetch $50,000-$150,000.00. DC/W139

Epistolae Obscurorum Viorum. Heidelberg: 1924. (Letters of Obscure Men is) ";A brilliant satire originating in the controversy between the humanist Johann Reuchlin and the converted Jew Johann Pfefferkorn. Pfefferkorn, supported by theologians, wanted Hebrew literature confiscated and destroyed, while Reuchlin, who had initiated Hebrew studies in Germany, pleaded for toleration; a bitter feud developed. In 1514, in self-defence, Reuchlin published some letters from eminent European scholars to him, the Clarorum virorum epistolae (Letters of Famous Men). The Epistolae obscurorum virorum appeared anonymously the following year, written mainly by the humanist Crotus Rubeanus; ostensibly they were letters from sycophantic academic theologians to one of Pfefferkorn's supporters, Ortivin Gratius, but they were soon recognized as a humanist joke. In them the fictitious theologians reveal themselves as petty and complacent, occupied with the most trivial scholastic problems, food, drink, and sex. Their absurd names and appalling Latin intensify the humor. In 1517 another book of letters appeared, more directly concerned with the Reuchlin affair (mainly by Ulrich von Hutten). The Epistolae resulted in much advantageous publicity for Reuchlin's stance and for the humanist cause."; - Encyclopaedia of the Renaissance. A wonderful collection. Rare. Small Box OST 5

Ouspensky, Piotr Demianovich. TERTIUM ORGANUM. THE THIRD CANON OF THOUGHT: A KEY TO THE ENIGMAS OF THE WORLD.
Alfred A. Knopf, New York: 1925. 1925, Hardcover 336 p. + Fold-out Table of Four Forms of Manifestation of Consciousness. 8vo. Original full cloth binding. "The mystery of space and time. Shadows and reality. Occultism and love. Animated nature. Voices of the stones. Mathematics of the infinite. The Logic of Ecstasy. Mystical theosophy. Cosmic Consciousness. The new morality. Birth of the superman." Among the many mysteries discussed here are: ether, higher dimensions, logic of animals, theory of relativity, occult experience, nature of love, infinity and mysticism. Born in 1878 in Moscow, Russia, P. D. Ouspensky was already a well-known mathematician, author, and journalist before becoming a pupil of G. I. Gurdjieff in 1915 in Russia. He put Gurdjieff's system into contemporary Russian language and organized the fragments of knowledge into a form suitable for the Western mind. Later Ouspensky founded The Society for the Study of Normal Man, and its publishing arm the Historico-Psychological Society, in London, England, and in Lyne Place near Virginia Water. Except for the years of the Second World War when he was in the United States (at Franklin Farms), he taught constantly until his death in 1947. OCC 14

Walpole, Horace (1717-1797). HISTORIC DOUBTS ON THE LIFE AND REIGN OF KING RICHARD THE THIRD.
Printed for J. Dodsley in Pall-Mall, London: 1768. 1768, F Hardcover pp. xv, 134, [ii] + Two nice engraved plates. 4to. Worn contemporary full leather binding. Should be rebacked. With the engraved armorial bookplate Sir Edmund Antrobus, an uncle of Walpole's friend, the poet Thomas Gray (1716-1771). Antrobus is famous as the owner of Stonehenge. Walpole's splendidly written and much celebrated defence of King Richard, influenced most later historians and commentators. Though Walpole was no great historian, he nevertheless well understood that all `history is written by the victors' and records from the past should be reviewed with some scepticism. This is one of the earliest attempts to rehabilitate a character previously stamped with infamy. These doubts provoked several answers, which are criticized in a supplement edited by Dr E. C. Hawtrey for the Philobiblon Society (1854). First Edition. SCARCE. W151.
