"In 1897 Havelock Ellis published Sexual Inversion the first of his six volume Studies in the Psychology of Sex. The book was first serious study of homosexuality published in Britain. It was based partly as a result of his awareness of the homosexuality of his wife and friends such as Edward Carpenter. Ellis admitted in his autobiography: "Homosexuality was an aspect of sex which up to a few years before had interested me less than any and I had known very little about it. But during those few years I had become interested in it. Partly I had found that some of my most highly esteemed friends were more or less homosexual like Edward Carpenter not to mention Edith." According to a letter he wrote to Arthur Symonds Edith Lees Ellis promised to "supply cases of inversion homosexuality in women from among her own friends." / Phyllis Grosskurth "has argued: "Sexual Inversion was an unprecedented book. Never before had homosexuality been treated so soberly so comprehensively so sympathetically. To read it today is to read the voice of common sense and compassion; to read it then was for the great majority to be affronted by a deliberate incitement to vice of the most degrading kind. . . . That such sexual proclivity is not determined by suggestion accident or historical conditioning is apparent he argues from the fact that it is widespread among animals and that there is abundant evidence of its prevalence among various nations at all periods of history."" – spartacus-educationaldotcom.

‎Eight ALS by Lev L'vovich Tolstoy 1869-1945 the son of Lev Tolstoy to Jacques Patin 1883-1948 the editor of Figaro‎

‎Paris and Wiesbaden: 1921-23. Eight single leaves some folded. Very good with exception of one letter with tear and some loss to text. The son of Lev Tolstoy Lev L'vovich Tolstoy was a firm believer in his father's ideals in his youth but later became increasingly opposed to his philosophical and ethical ideas. He studied sculpture with Rodin and tried without success to become a published writer as well as writing about his childhood and impressions of his father. In 1918 he emigrated living in Paris before eventually settling in Sweden. The letters included here date to a period when he wrote articles on his father and was making a difficult living as a journalist. Among other things they contain his negative reaction to his mother's memoirs discuss his own writing and plans to publish his recollections and detail his financial woes. "Je prends la liberté de vous envoyer pour le Figaro un article littéraire souvenirs personnels sur mon père et deux de ses nouvelles. Vous me rendriez un grand service en les publiant le plus tôt possible car hélas je dois exister du journalisme." - "Je me permets de vous envoyer ci-jointes quelques pages sur la nouvelle posthume de mon père Le Diable. Je parlais de cette œuvre dans un article sur la Sonate à Kreutzer qui a été publié dans le Journal mais la rédaction n'a pas voulu publier ces pages qui sont pourtant intéressantes. Peut-être pourrez-vous en faire usage en les publiant dans le Figaro ensemble avec le chapitre qui parle des ouvrages de Tolstoï pour le théâtre . Je vous suis très obligé pour l'aide que vous m'avez donnée pour la publication de mes souvenirs ainsi que je remercie Monsieur Robert de Flers pour l'article qu'il a publié dans le Figaro. . Maintenant comme je suis sans argent à ce moment et le change est très déplorable pour notre séjour ici je vous prierais d'avoir l'extrême obligeance de me faire envoyer ici 300-400 francs avec le premier courrier." - "Ma Vie c'est une ignoble escroquerie littéraire et il faut le dire carrément. Le publique est dupé. On achète ce petit livre croyant lire quelque chose de Tolstoï sa vie tandis que cela n'est qu'un récit d'une baba russe un récit d'une langue russe magnifique mais un rien comme intérêt . littéraire.". unknown books‎

First edition of this collection of broadcast speeches by Emanuel Moravec 1893-1945 a Czech soldier journalist and a leading collaborator with the German Protectorate regime. Before WWII Moravec had been a staunch patriot who defended an alliance with France and the Soviet Union and received the Bat'a Prize in 1937. Following the 1938 Munich Pact however Moravec turned sides and under Heydrich and Karl Hermann Frank he rose to prominence ultimately serving as minister of education and furthering the goal of "Germanizing" Czech culture and schooling. His influence was so strong that the Czech Resistance at one point suggested him as an alternate target to Heydrich himself. He shot himself during the Prague Uprising to avoid being captured.

‎SALTEN Felix 1869 1945‎

‎Autograph postcard signed in full to Hermine Lorch Austrian author of children's books‎

‎In black ink. Dated Vienna January 6 1923. With Salten's stamp with return Vienna address. In German with translation.<br/><br/>Salten writes to fellow children's book author Hermine Lorch after reading one of her manuscripts:<br/><br/>"The fairy tales are very pretty very sentimental and also of the type that I like. I truly believe that they will find readers."<br/><br/>From the collection of the distinguished American mezzo-soprano Marilyn Horne b. 1934. <br/><br/>Uniformly browned; light scattered foxing. Austrian author Felix Salten is best known for his novel Bambi: A Life in the Woods 1923 which was the basis for the Disney film. His stories also inspired the Disney films Perri 1957 and The Shaggy Dog 1959. Apart from this legacy Salten was a prominent art and theater critic in Vienna. As a Jew living in Vienna Salten's books were banned in 1936 and he fled to Switzerland following the German annexation.<br/><br/>Hermine Lorch was also a children's author in Austria but there is little record of her work. It is possible that she was a victim of the Holocaust as there is someone of that name listed in the database of the Holocaust Museum. <br/><br/>"Horne had a voice of extraordinary range rich and tangy in timbre with a stentorian chest register and an exciting top. In concert she once achieved the feat of singing in a single programme Rossini arias and Brünnhilde's Immolation Scene proof of her exceptional versatility. Throughout her lengthy career she was an admired recitalist singing lieder mélodies Spanish and American songs with equal aplomb." Alan Blyth in Grove Music Online. unknown books‎
