Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. xii+167 pages with frontispiece, appendices, bibliography and index. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's red cloth with black label lettered in gilt to spine. from the library of Professor Donald Worcester. First edition. Dr Smith has given us a fu…lly documented history of the guild merchant in Spain. There has been a conscious effort on his part to do for Spain what Gross did for the guild merchant in England;this appears not only in the general scope and structure of the text but in the meticulous and extensive documentation. Both printed and manuscript materials have been utilized with unusual care. The archives of all the Consulados have been visited and extant documents listed and used. Unfortunately, many of the documents have been dispersed or destroyed. The task to which Smith addressed himself was difficult in many ways. Critical literature was scanty; the manuscript material was widely dispersed among a considerable number of archives, libraries and museums. Donald E. Worcester (1915-2003) was an American historian who specialized in Southwestern United States and Latin American history. He was president of the Western History Association from 1974-1975. Worcester graduated from Bard College in 1939. He received an M.A. from the University of California, Berkeley in 1941. He then served in the US Naval Reserve in World War II. He received a PhD. from Berkeley in 1947. From 1947 until 1963 he was a professor at the University of Florida. He then was a professor at Texas Christian University and history department chair. From 1960 until 1965 he was managing editor of the Hispanic American Historical Review. Worcester's view that history is made of complexities, not dualities, is seen as foundational for much of the understanding by later scholars of Southwest United States history. Condition: Worcester's name on front end paper and his book plate on front paste down, light rubbing to points, spine sunned else a very good copy.

Ya en 1940, es decir, todavía antes de la organización de este Archivo, un acopio importante de documentos referentes al Consulado de Lima guardado en la sección manuscritos de la Biblioteca del Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores del Perú llamó la atención del historiador Guillermo Lohmann Villena.

Añadir al carritoHardcover. First Edition in Icelandic. pp. 310. Octavo., measuring 8.75" x 6". Publisher's original blue cloth over boards, title stamped in gilt to the spine, with publisher's monogram of basalt columns blindstamped to the front board (a reference to the publisher's name Stuðlaberg - the Icelandic term for basalt formations); s…peckled edges. Light wear to spine ends, tips, very lightly shaken; otherwise, extremities remain in very good condition. Contents uniformly without blemish with bright, clean, and unmarked leaves and sound binding; very good. References: This edition unrecorded in OCLC (see OCLC #184746377 for the later 1983 printing). Not found in KVK. Notably, not found in Fenwick [George Orwell: A Bibliography]. We note various editions in Leitir amongst Icelandic institutions. Published a mere two years following its first appearance in English (Secker & Warburg, 1949), our offering is the exceedingly rare first printing in the Icelandic language of Orwell's famed dystopian novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four. This edition, published in 1951, was only the second title issued by the short-lived, explicitly anti-Communist Icelandic press Stuðlaberg (Studlaberg). The press was founded amid growing concern over the influence of the communist movement in Iceland by two young activists, Geir Hallgrímsson (later Prime Minister of Iceland, 1974-1978) and Eyjólfur Konráð Jónsson, with the overt political support of the Independence Party and its Minister of Culture, Bjarni Benediktsson. Stuðlaberg would ultimately only publish three works: Guðinn sem brást (The God That Failed, 1950), a collection of essays by former communists including Arthur Koestler and André Gide; Nítján hundruð áttatíu og fjögur (Nineteen Eighty-Four, 1951), introducing Orwell's chilling vision of bureaucratic totalitarianism to Icelandic readers; and Bóndinn (El Campesino, 1952), Valentín González's stark memoir of the Spanish Republican general's escape from Stalin's Gulags. Although short-lived, Stuðlaberg would lay the foundation for the establishment of Public Book Club (Almenna bókafélagið, or AB), one modeled in part upon the communist-aligned book club Mál og menning. AB would go on to feature many of Iceland's leading literary figures, including Gunnar Gunnarsson, Tómas Guðmundsson, Davíð Stefánsson, Guðmundur G. Hagalín, Kristmann Guðmundsson, and Kristján Albertsson, among others.
