Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the development and life cycle of various parasitic flatworms, known as Trematodes, revealing fascinating insights into their complex biology. The author combines historical observations with detailed anatomical studies to trace the transformation of Trematode embryos into intermediate larval stages, known as Cercariae, and ultimately into their adult forms. Through detailed descriptions and illustrations, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of the intricate developmental processes and adaptations exhibited by these parasites. By unraveling the mysteries surrounding Trematode development, this book contributes significantly to our knowledge of their life cycles and opens new avenues for further research in parasitology and evolutionary biology.

What differentiates his work are his abstract wood engravings incorporating color. The 95 wood engravings span nearly 40 years of Wagener's career, showing the progression and maturity in his work, encompassing all periods and styles of his career, from landscapes to abstract wood engravings incorporating color. The chronological sequence of images is interwoven with commentary by both the artist and other contributors and each engraving includes specific documentation showing creation date, title and descriptive details. All of the wood engravings are printed from the original blocks by Jan Elsted, one of the most skilled printers of wood engravings, faithfully reproducing the extraordinary detail in Wagener's work. Simply put, this book is a tour de force of exceptional wood engraving and it is a "must' for any private press collector of this art form.______NOTE: Because of the size and weight of this edition, domestic shipping cost with UPS Ground is $35.

Arch. Anat. Phys., 1852. - Berlin, Verlag von Veit et Comp., 1852, 8°, pp.543-569, 3 lith. Taf., Broschur. Guido richar Wagener, "geboren zu Berlin 12. Februar 1822, war dort auch nach seiner Studienzeit Assistent Ernst Bruecke's und Johannes Müller's, gelangte 1848 zur Promotion, wurde 1857 Assistent am anatomischen Museum in Berlin, 1861 Privatdocent, siedelte 1867 nach Marburg (mit N.Lieberkühn) über, wo er Prosector und Professor e.o. wurde. Er schrieb über die Entwicklung der Cestoden, der Trematoden, auch über die Muskelfaser und eine Anzahl von Abhandlungen in zoologischen und histologischen Fachzeitschriften." Wernich, Hirsch VI, p.161 The German professor of anatomy Guido Richard Wagener (1822-1896) brought a huge and important music collection together. This collection was sold in 1901 by his heir on favourable terms to Alfred Wotquenne, then librarian of the Brussels conservatory. Among the 9.000 titles of the collection Wagener are lots of interesting and unique pieces. The forty autographs belong to the most important scores, among them works by the sons of J. S. Bach as Carl Philipp Emanuel, Johann Christoph Friedrich and Wilhelm Friedemann, beside works of Benda, Graun and Quantz. There are also about five hundred manuscript, containing several unique copies. The printed music is very interesting with very rare copies. Chamber music from the 18tth century is strongly represented. Beside the importance for the historical performance practice and the artistic-scientific research the collection fascinates by the bibliophile binding, mostly dating from the 19th century. The Wagener collection is the largest and most important foreign music collection ever to be bought in Belgium.…

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Octavo. (56)pp. Engravings throughout by Wagener, including as frontispiece, are printed in black and glimmering red. Wagener's ability to translate the splashing, fluid form of calligraphy to the geometrical impositions of wood engraving is a remarkable feat and altogether fitting for Bringhurst's poems on the gestures of language. They dovetail especially well with his works that incorporate Japanese kanji. Bound in half black leather with gray paper edged in red over boards and with gilt-stamped leather label to spine. Extra engraving held in paper folio, and this housed together with the book in a slipcase. Fine. One of thirty copies of "State B," bound in half leather with an extra leaf signed by the artist and the poet.…

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: near fine. Limited Edition. One of 300 copies, folio size, 80 pp., signed by Richard Wagener. The fourth book by Wagener, wherein he captures the memories of his youth of the rural areas surrounding Los Angeles. As Victoria Dailey sets forth in her introduction, "we see California in Wagener's work, but we also recognize something profound, something deeply personal, something psychologically provocative" and goes on to say "the images hover somewhere between reality and imagination, and rarely has wood engraving been used with such spectacular results." ___DESCRIPTION: Tan laid paper boards over an evergreen cloth shelfback, small wood engraving illustration laid into the front board, paper spine label, fore- and bottom edges uncut, rust laid paper endpapers, title page in red and black, illustration on title page mirrors that on the front board, wood engravings interspersed with several pages of text; designed by Peter Rutledge Koch, type DTL Elzevir printed letterpress from polymer plates on Zerkall Buttenpapier, folio size (12 1/2" by 7 3/4"), unpaginated with 40 leaves of text and illustrations, all on rectos only after the introduction; limited edition of 300 hundred copies (plus ten proof copies), this no. 49, signed by Richard Wagener at the colophon. There is a dust wrapper of white tissue with the same wood engraving illustration on the front as on the front board and title page; the book is enclosed in a publisher's slipcase covered with rust laid paper on the sides, green cloth on the top and bottom, paper spine label. ___CONDITION: Fine, the laid paper boards clean and unmarked, the corners straight and unrubbed, the binding tight with solid hinges, the interior clean and bright, and free of prior owner markings; clean, crisp, as new. The original tissue paper dust jacket near fine, clean and with light wear at the top edge and some creasing to the back panel; the slipcase fine, clean and free of marks or wear, strong and sturdy. Marvellous artistry by one of the greatest wood engravers still working today, wonderfully produced by one of the greatest printers. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note the following: (i) additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs, please inquire for details; and (ii) any taxes, duty, or tariffs charged by your country will, of necessity, be your responsibility. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.

Hardcover. Condición: New. First and Limited Edition. One of 70 copies, folio size, 60 text pp. with 26 plates, in chemise and slipcase, signed by Richard Wagener. Richard Wagener (b. 1944) is an American wood engraver who creates gorgeous and detailed landscape scenes as well as abstract engravings. He was been creating wood engravings for over fourty years, with his work being published not only under his own imprint of Mixolydian Editions, but also by Peter Koch, David Pascoe (Nawakum Press), and The Book Club of California. He has won numerous awards and his work is with well over one hundred institutions. This work was his first published artist book (his first publication following his Master's thesis), with Wagener creating both the artwork as well as writing the text. It had the distinction of being included in the exhibit "Artists' Books in the Modern Era, 1870 - 2000" at the Legion of Honor (San Francisco). Bestiaries have a long history, having originated in the ancient world and becoming extremely popular in the Middle Ages. "Animals tumble, soar, and race through the pages of the bestiary. Abounding with vibrant and fascinating images, the bestiary brought real and fantastical creatures to life for readers" (n.b., quote from the web site of the Getty Center discussing a 2019 exhibit of bestiaries). The beasts are often presented alphabetically, as is the case here. What makes this alphabestiatry special is the pairing of Wagener's prose poems with each beast; when we were fortunate to speak with Richard about this work, he shared that the poems are not intended to be descriptions of the beast, or provide a moral lesson (which was often the case with the medieval works) but rather a hint at the thoughts and emotions evoked by the creature depicted. Issued in an edition of only seventy copies, our search of OCLC locates thirty copies with institutions, leaving only fourty for private ownership. As of this writing we see two other copies online; our copy was acquired directly from Wagener, hence is truly "as new", never having been previously owned. ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in quarter red leather with grey laid paper over boards, printed on the front board is the title and wood engraving of the initial "beast", the armadillo, this surrounded by a rectagular border, title in gilt on the spine, matching grey laid endpapers, title page with a small abstract engraving by Wagener in red, the section for each beast also with a small abstract engraving in red onto which the initial capital has been printed, this followed by the short prose poem, and this by the wood-engraved creature set upon a larger abstract engraving, these both in black and printed on the rectos only; Ehrhardt type on Zerkall paper, binding large folio size (15" by 8 7/8"), unpaginated with 60 unnumbered text pages and 26 unnumbered leaves of plates, this no. 56 of the 70 copies, signed by Wagener in pencil at the colophon. The volume encased in a chemise covered in a darker grey laid paper, both housed in a slipcase covered in changable silk of red with gold highlights, grey paper spine label with grey lettering (the slipcase measuring 15 3/8" by 9 1/8"). ___CONDITION: Volume is fine, the boards clean, straight corners without rubbing, a strong, square text block with solid hinges, the interior is clean and bright, and entirely free of prior owner markings; clean, crisp, entirely as new. The chemise also fine, clean and without blemish. The slipcase fine overall, strong and sturdy, utterly without wear; there are two very small, very light spots on the paper spine label, which we presume occurred during production as the book has never before been owned. A truly stunning production by a renowned artist. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note the following: (i) additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs, please inquire for details; and (ii) any taxes, duty, or tariffs charged by your country will, of necessity, be your responsibility. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to.

Full Leather. Condición: Fine binding. First Edition. Folio. [44] pp., frontis, plates. Limited edition, one of 120 copies, this copy out of series; there are also 26 lettered, deluxe copies with a suite of 10 engravings. All are signed by Bringhurst, Wagener, and Peter Koch at the colophon. Bound by Camille Botelho in black box calf with inlays and onlays of dyed calf, vinyl snakeskin, painted paper mylar laminates, and a porcupine quill; hand embroidered endbands; vinyl snakeskin doublures. A fine copy in clamshell box. True to form, Peter Koch has produced a marvelous edition of what remains of Parmenides's poem, "On Nature." The fragments of the poem are rendered in this opposite page, bilingual edition with the Greek on the left and Bringhurst's English translation on the right. The poetry is brilliantly accompanied by Wagner's striking engravings, a frontispiece and 4 additional wood engravings in red and orange. Given it survives only in fragments, there is some debate as to the "meaning" of the symbolism of Parmenides's poem, making it a work ripe for interpretation. But at base, his view of reality is one of stasis, unchangeable. And while that enduring Greek logic marks the work, Wagener introduces remarkably abstract and kinetic illustrations printed in an urgent deep red and orange-projecting anything but stasis. It is the discord between the logical understanding or reality and the emotional understanding of it that spoke to Botelho and informed her design of this incredible binding. She writes: "In the design I thought of Parmenides looking out past shadowy arches from within a dark room to find total chaos beyond. The curve of the Mylar inlay and the curve of the porcupine quill mimic a column, marking a threshold beyond which is uncontrolled noise and movement and mess. I wanted the disparity between the smoothness of the box calf and the chaos of the inlays and yellow foiling to be a comment on how frightening examining one's reality can be." Magnificently achieved, Botelho has created an exceptional binding, that bridges Parmenides and Wagener, giving voice to the paradox she sees in this metaphysical conversation on the nature of reality.

Hardcover. Condición: As New. First edition. One of 300 copies signed and numbered by the artist. Introduction by Victoria Dailey. Tall quarto. Title page wood engraving plus 30 wood-engraved plates. Illustrated title page printed in red and black. Half dark green cloth with printed paper spine label, gray/brown boards with wood-engraved illustration repeated from title page. Publisher's matching slipcase of with printed paper spine label. As new. A handsome and important production which went out-of-print immediately upon publication. The book was designed and printed letterpress by Peter Rutledge Koch. The beautiful and original wood-engraved prints, printed by the artist himself, are enhanced by Wagener's short prose pieces describing them. "Not since Paul Landacre mastered the aesthetic and technical challenges of wood engraving in the early twentieth-century has any California artist achieved prominence in the medium until Richard Wagener began to explore it in the 1980's. Wagener's images of nature - his stately Sierra trees, stark peaks and rocky crags - and his urban architectural monuments - the Pantages Theater and the Griffith Observatory - combine to make this work a deeply personal record of distinctive California locations" (Victoria Dailey).
