1827 DANTE Divine Comedy PISA Italy Accademia Crusca Inferno Purgatory Italian

Few works throughout the history of all written history have had such an impact on the readership of humanity. The Divine Comedy is Dante's record of an allegorical journey through the spiritual realms of Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. This medieval classic depicts Classical themes, Christian history, and Medieval politics. It has been the inspiration for countless plays, art, books, pieces of music, movies, and more!

This 1827 edition of 'Divine Comedy' is notable for containing an extensive commentary by, as the title suggests, a 'contemporary of Dante'. And while the commentary's author is unknown, this particular issue was collected and edited by the Accademia della Crusca – one of the most prestigious and well-recognized institutions of the Italian language.

Jean Baptiste de Barthelemy's "Manual of Complete Numismatics" is a 19th-century guide on collecting and identifying ancient and modern coins.

It included all of the famous works one would expect to be in a collection of Shakespeare, but unlike other editions of the same era, this particular example features the impressive full-page engravings of character portraits.

New York, Grove Press, 2022, trade paperback, 272 pp, Advance Uncorrected Proof (ARC), New. Straight, tight and clean with no wear or markings in bright, pictorial card covers, no dustjacket as issued. The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
