Description:
London: Macmillan, 1874. First edition. First edition. 2 volumes. 23cm; 447, 588 pages, 2 maps (one folding), and 50 wood-engraved plates. Bound in half red straight-grain morocco over marbled boards. Hinges and cap ends reinforced for strength, along with upper joint on volume 1. Scattered foxing. Map abraded near title, and one panel fold split. Explorer, social liberal, abolitionist, Samuel Baker was appointed by khedive Ismail the Magnificent to lead a military force up the Nile into the Sudan in 1869 to suppress the slave trade there. He was given the rank of Major General in the Ottoman Army and outfitted with 1,700 troops. The storied Florence Baker was also present. Basically, Baker spent five years establishing the Ottoman province of Equatoria and serving as its governor-general, until he ceded the post to Charles George "Chinese" Gordon (played by Charlton Heston in the movie "Khartoum"). Baker returned to London where he published this account. He remained at the outer fringes of… Read More

Description:
Lucca: Tipografia Ducale, 1825. Original edition. Fine. Octavo (20 cm); 8 pages. In stiff green marbled-paper wraps. Epithalamion by the celebrated improvisational poet, Teresa Bandettini, who packed theaters and thrilled audiences with her spontaneous verses accompanied by dance. The marriage--between the 62-year-old Prince Maximilian of Saxony and the 23-year-old Maria Luisa Carlotta--took place in Lucca by proxy without the bride being present! (They had a second ceremony in person in Dresden later that year.) Max had been Luisa Carlotta's uncle by marriage. Anyway, the important thing here is the poetry of Teresa Bandettini, who had returned to her native Lucca after a career on the road as an improvvisatrice. The poem is a hymn to Hymen, the Greek deity associated with marriage and, of course, the wedding night.

Bound in publisher's pasteboard decorated in tortoise shell patterns ("carta tartarugata"), with printed paper labels on spines. Pages bright, fresh, and untrimmed.

Teresa Bandettini (1763-1837) filled salons and ballrooms all over Northern Italy performing improvisational poetry, sometimes accompanied by dance, adorned in clothing deemed "Grecian."

At age 27, wildly famous for her remarkable performances of improvised poetry and dance, Teresa Bandettini published this narrative poem about love, jealousy, and grief. This work, and others to follow, betrayed the author's ambition to exceed her career as an "improvvisatrice" and compose written poetry. Indeed, Bandettini was a driven artist. She was… Read More
