Wraps. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: fine. Limited Edition. "Odes" no. 98 of 250 copies, "Continuity" one of 500 unnumbered copies, the two volumes in a slipcase, with accompanying ephemera, folio size, 96 pp. and 32 pp., "Odes" signed by Jack Stauffacher. Quintus Horatius Flaccus (known simply as "Horace", 65-8 BCE), is acknowledged as "the leading Roman lyric poet during the time of Augustus", whose "Odes", a collection of four books of poetry, have been studied through the centuries. Covering a wide range of subjects, Alfred Lord Tennyson spoke of the Odes as "jewels five-words long, that on the stretched forefinger of all Time / Sparkle for ever" (n.b., quotes from Wiki). This publication of the "Odes" was displayed in the member exhibition of the Pacific Center for the Book Arts in 1992. In his comments regarding the publication, Jack recalls that it was in 1979 that Michael Taylor sent him (Jack) his (Michael's) translation of Book One of the "Odes"; Michael wrote to Jack: "Strangely, my 'vision' of Horace has always been linked in my mind with the feeling for typography I picked up at the Greenwood Press - so it is only right that the translation should come back to you, for you" (n.b., Jack Werner Stauffacher and Glenn Humphreys, "A Typographic Journey, The History of the Greenwood Press", p. 209). Included are the following related pieces of ephemera: (i) prospectus printed as a broadside in blue and black, folded twice for mailing, measuring 18" by 11 7/8"; (ii) an Addendum to "Odes" noting that "[t]he enclosed announcement was printed in the summer of 1991, but this book was not released until June 1992" (which explains the publication date discrepancy, see details below); (iii) a post-publication announcement of the publication of Book One, this a single sheet folded once to four pages, the front page with Horace's full Latin name, dates of birth and death, and the title in Latin ("Carminum Liber II"), the two inner pages an excerpt with both the Latin and English translation, and the final page noting that 225 copies of this printed and stating that "[t]he press plans to publish Books 2, 3, & 4 of the 'Odes'; (iv) a post-publication announcement that "[t]he press plans to publish Books 2, 3, & 4 of the 'Odes'.", this a single sheet folded once to four pages, the front page with Horace's full Latin name, dates of birth and death, and the title in Latin ("Carminum Liber IV"), the two inner pages an excerpt with both the Latin and English translation, and the final page noting that 125 copies of this printed for "the friends of the third Premio Felice Feliciano, Verona, 5 June 1993"; (v) a single sheet folded once printed on both sides, being a letter to Horace from Primo Levi, taken from "The Mirror Maker" (Schocken Books, 1989); and (vi) a listing of books issued by The Greenwood Press during 1992-93, which includes "Odes" and "The Continuity of Horace", design on the front in red, quote on the back from Maurice Blanchot. As of this writing there are no copies of "Odes" available online and we see only two auction records (RBH); this set a fine example of a publication surprisingly scarce in the marketplace. ___DESCRIPTION: Two volumes published as companions, both with mylar coverings on the wraps and housed in a slipcase of white cardstock. "Odes" bound into textured white cardstock covers with a dust jacket of plain white, the front and back with portions of the "Odes" presented in Latin, the spine with "Odes Horace", title page simply with title and author ("Odes Horace"), each poem presented with the first line in blue, in Latin, followed by the English translation by Taylor; handset Stempel Kis-Janson on Mohawk Superfine paper, binding by Klaus-Ullrich S. Rötzscher, folio size (12 1/8" by 7 1/2"), unpaginated with 96 pages; at the rear is bound in a page acknowledging Michael Taylor as translator, followed by a page with the dates of birth and death of Horace, this followed by the Contents page, this followed by the colophon page, signed by Jack W. Stauffacher in penc. Signed.…
