Merrell, James H.
Into the American Woods : Negotiators on the Pennsylvania Frontier
463 pages including index. An award-winning historian's beautifully written reconstruction of how Europeans lived in peace and war with Indians on America's colonial frontier. Long erased from history - overlooked even in Benjamin West's famous painting of William Penn's legendary encounter with the Indians - the go-betweens of early America are recovered here in vivid detail. "... subtle, original, and engaging all at once... His creative and elegant narrative not only explores an intiguing subject; it opens up a whole new perspective on parts of eighteenth-century American life that we thought we already understood." - Peter H. Wood, Duke University. A new unread copy. Book

MERSAD BERBER.
Mersad Berber: An allegory Bosnia.= Bir Bosna alegorisi. Edited by Begüm Akkoyunlu Ersöz, Tania Bahar. Curated by Aida Abadzic Hodzic.
New English Paperback. 4to. (29 x 14 cm). In English and Turkish. 112 p., ills. Mersad Berber: An allegory Bosnia.= Bir Bosna alegorisi. Edited by Begüm Akkoyunlu Ersöz, Tania Bahar. Curated by Aida Abadzic Hodzic. The exhibition centres on the art of Mersad Berber, who is one of the greatest and most significant representatives of Bosnian?Herzegovinian art from the second half of the 20th century. Inspired by the great European masters, from Renaissance to Art Nouveau, Berber?s works exemplify the deep, opaque whites of his journeys through the fairy tale landscapes of Bosnia to the dark, macabre burrows of Srebrenica. The exhibition catalogue includes essays by Aida Abadzic Hodzic, the curator of the show and a well-known art historian, teaching at the Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo, and by Edward Lucie-Smith, the art critic and the honorary consultant of the project. While Abadzic Hodzic concentrates on how the art of Berber reflects all the multi-layered cultural history of his country; Lucie-Smith, who had worked with the artist in several exhibitions, focuses on his art within the European art history scene.

METIN AND, (1927-2008).
Bazaar painters: Ottoman figurative arts 2. Edited by Tülün Degirmenci, M. Sabri Koz.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 23 cm). Edition in English. 248 p., color ills. Bazaar painters: Ottoman figurative arts 2. Edited by Tülün Degirmenci, M. Sabri Koz. Coining the phrase 'bazaar painters' in a 1985 article, Metin And enriched our art history terminology with a new concept as well as offer a glimpse into the world of these artists: how they worked, what they drew, where their works are today and how they contribute to our study of history of art and culture. He continued to promote and popularise their work through books and articles published until 2007, at times repeating earlier content as required. Bazaar painters and their work were not initially identified as a distinctive genre; Franz Taeschner, the first researcher to publish a selection, felt no need to refer to them as anything other than 'miniatures'. Challenging this trend, Metin And set about the immensely difficult task of obtaining pictures of bazaar painting albums from four corners of the globe in order to illustrate a prolific series of essays and books.The second volume of Ottoman Figurative Arts, Bazaar Painters consists of twelve articles published between 1985 and 2007, a comprehensive introduction by Tülün Degirmenci, and a concise album. The pictures and inscriptions Metin And chased enthusiastically all his life are but the echoing footsteps of a book, one that was either never written, or somehow got lost before it could be published.

METIN AND.
Ottoman figurative arts 1: Miniature.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 23 cm). Edition in English. 600 p., color ills. For over fifty years, Metin And championed Turkish theatre, traditional performing arts, festivities and the art of Ottoman miniature in dozens of articles and ten titles in Turkish and other languages. The list ends with "Ottoman Figurative Arts I: Miniature", which attests to And's fascination with the subject. A fundamental "art of the book" as well as a courtly art form, miniature favoured a highly realistic depiction of daily life, human beings, the urban fabric and buildings - an aspect promoted widely in And's work. Miniature's main function was illustrating manuscripts. As "Ottoman Figurative Arts I: Miniature" ably demonstrates, the target audience was either the sultan, or high-ranking statesmen. Manuscripts so illustrated were prohibitively costly works of art, safeguarded in the Treasury, and any illustrated manuscript captured in battle would have delighted the victorious commander and sultan equally. An indispensable reference book, the lavishly illustrated "Ottoman Figurative Arts I: Miniature" covers the stages in the development of the art in the Ottoman Empire, an overview of the studios, techniques and methods of this courtly art, and includes a splendid Album of portraits, lives of the sultans, the palace, festivals, literary works, religious topics, landscapes and townscapes, scientific and encyclopaedic subjects, the world of birds, animals and fantastic creatures as well as women and men.

METIN ELOGLU, (1927-1985).
[ORIGINAL ARTWORK OF TURKISH LUMPENPROLETARIAT] In the forest of abstract stains.
Fine Turkish Original artwork in oil painting on thick paper. Varnished on painting. 14x14 cm. Signed on the lower right. No date. Metin Eloglu was a mediator poet-painter between two major literary movements known as Garip and Ikinci Yeni in Turkish literature, with his poetry featuring both realistic and imagistic elements. Eloglu published his first piece, which was a short story, in 1942, while his initial poems came out in the following years. As a painter, he liked to work on urban compositions. Some of his paintings had titles like "Çikmaz Sokak" [i.e. The Dead End] and "Gecekondu Sofrasi" [i.e. The Slum Dinner]. He won some moderate prizes for his paintings; however, especially after becoming a famous poet of the modernist era, he would always be remembered as a poet rather than a painter.
