Arno Press and The New York Times. Hardcover. This is a clean solid straight hardcover book with clean text pages firm hinges and square corners on the black and white binding. No dust jacket. The book has a library sticker on the spine and contains university library stamps and a pocket. It is a 1969 reprint of Turner's 1949 writing. In his classic treatise Turner the first professionally trained African American linguist focused on a people whose language had long been misunderstood and demonstrated that it drew important linguistic features directly from the languages of West Africa. For example: Gullah uses "tuwiya" to mean "fire;" the word in Angola is "tuvia." In Gullah "bumbu" means "to pick up or carry;" in Mende the word is "mbumbu." . Good.

<p><b>1583 Voyages of Christopher Columbus Navigation Gambara Peter Martyr New World</b></p><p><u>An incredible 16th-century epic work on the voyages of Columbus!</u></p><p><i>Lorenzo Gambara was a 16th-century Italian poet who is known exclusively for his poem 'Colombiade' – an epic poem on the life and adventures of Christopher Columbus. While not published until 1581 it was commissioned by Anthony Perrenot a Burgundian cleric nearly 40 years earlier. <b>This work was one of the most important early accounts of Columbus</b>. Note this passage from Mary Watt</i></p><p>"The timing of the poem and patron to whom it was dedicated speak loudly to the role that the expedition played in the early 16th-century Italian imagination. The poem consists of four books recounting Columbus's four voyages respectively. Gambara used Peter Martyr's accounts as his foundation so that his poem represents an Italian interpretation of the New World. Gambara describes Columbus's voyages as having exceeded those of Hercules. Columbus has surpassed the ancients and in Dante-esque fashion not only passed through the danger but made it to the other shore safely…Watt p.126-127</p><p><i>Curiously Gambara was so determined to promote Italian pride that he describes the towns that Columbus discovered in the New World as Roman – Roman streets forums assembly senate "implying that the landing signals are a return to a Roman Golden Age" and that an imperial Roman plan has been established to take over the New World.</i></p><p>Item number: #8295</p><p>Price: $9500</p><p>GAMBARA Lorenzo </p><p><b><i>Laurentii Gambarae Brixiani De nauigatione Christophori Columbi libri quattuor.</i></b></p><p>Romae: Typis Bartholomaei Bonfadini & Titi Diani 1583.</p><p><br /></p><p><u>Details</u>: </p><p>· Collation: Complete with all pages</p><p>o Signatures: A-QⴠR²</p><p>o 64 2 leaves</p><p>· References: Watt <i>Dante Columbus</i>; USTC 831680; Edit16 20329; </p><p>· Language: Latin</p><p>· Binding: Vellum; tight & secure</p><p>· Size: ~9.5in X 7in 24cm x 17.5cm</p><p>· Exceedingly rare and desirable with no other example for sale worldwide</p><p>Our Guarantee: </p><p>Very Fast.
