Very Good in the original salmon cloth with black decorations to boards; title in red on front and spine Unwin monogram likewise on rear. Color frontispiece. Spine darkened and red title dulled 3" tear top edge half-title page light foxing to end pages period interesting bookplate front pastedown. From the collection of the Richard M. Dorson Memorial Library Folklore Institute Indiana University the only library indicators being its stamp verso of frontispiece and blindstamp to title page. With RARE and important three page ALS tipped to front end page sent from Leland at the Hotel Victoria Florence Italy to Mr Sampson noted linguist John Sampson possiby dated 1899 with "99" after heading. "Dear Mr Sampson I have written and sent you separately by this mail that which I contribute to our book." He then discusses his wishes for the Preface and Introduction before adding "The Tinkers. This is quite unfinished. It needs a great deal from you. Please note that I have got some queer items as to the Tinkers of old times." In the next paragraph he mentions Shelta Shelta Thari being an esoteric language spoken by the tinkers which Leland had discovered in 1876. He goes on to ask "Can you send me an Old Irish alphabet' and later "I hope it will not take you long to put together what you and Professor Meyer will give" referring to Professor Kuno Meyer a German scholar distinguished in the field of Celtic philology and literature. Then an address in Hamburg Germany where he can be reached after June and "Sincerely Charle G. Leland". While I can find no book that these three men published together Sampson and Meyer did much work later to carry forward research and knowledge of the Shelta language and customs. A quite fascinating correspondence and ASSOCIATION COPY. . HOLOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED. First Trade Edition. Decorative Cloth. Very Good/No Jacket As Issued. 4to - over 9�" - 12" tall. T.

Il romanzo degli dei greci: Apparso per la prima volta negli anni '70 in Inghilterra questo libro è oggi ritenuto un classico. Innovativo rispetto ai tanti testi esistenti sui miti greci, riunisce in una grande storia vicende diverse: le gesta degli dei, le lotte violente e fratricide, gli amori e le invidie, il rapporto con gli uomini, la fame di potere.

First appeared in England in the 1970s, this book is now considered a classic.

A book that rereads Greek myths with intelligence and sensitivity to convey them to young people, and not just to them, wisdom and magic. Reading age: from 8 years.
