Stephens witnessed the shooting of a man as a result of the Easter Uprising in Dublin in 1916. This became a turning point for him as the event intensified his patriotic feelings and renewed his interest in old Irish literature. Stephens moved to London in the year 1925. He began a series of lecture tours which extended to the United States. In 1935 Stephens began a literary and personal friendship with James Joyce. His colleagues considered Stephens to be a genius who easily embraced fantasy, philosophy, and comedy - those who read him today will still be struck by his genius. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! STEPHENS/W77

Stiernhielm Georg Stiernhielmi Georgi
Hercules. Ja�mte efterskrift av Sten Lindroth och ordfo�rklaringar av Carl Ivar Stahle
Stockholm: Almqvist & Wiksells/ Gebers Forlag 1957 Stiernhielm 1598-1672 was the first Swedish poet to apply the verse meters of antique poets to the Swedish language modifying their principle of long and short syllables to a principle of stressed and unstressed syllables which better suits the phonology of Swedish. His most famous is "Hercules" an epic poem in hexameters about how Hercules in his youth is being tempted by Fru Lusta "Mrs. Lust" and her daughters to choose an immoral lifestyle for his future. The allegory known as Hercules at the crossroads can be traced back to the Athenian sophist Prodicus of Ceos as preserved in Xenophon. This small format book contains a facsimile of the first edition of the poem published in Fraktur type by Johannem Pauli in Uppsala in 1658. unpaginated followed by an essay by Sten Lindroth and word explanations by Carl Ivar St�hle. 90p. Name of previous owner on ffep else fine. Facsimile Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. Almqvist & Wiksells/ Gebers Forlag hardcover
