Pr�logo: La Editorial Arica se complace en brindar al p�blico este volumen en el que la destacada poetisa Matilde M�rmol autora de Humana Dimensi�n inaugurando una nueva direcci�n de su quehacer intelectual nos ofrece un estudio inteligente �gil y amable de los SINLOGISMOS de Sofocleto. Esta excelente introducci�n cr�tica en la que se equilibran la adhesi�n cordial y la objetividad meritorio acierto en quien es esposa de Luis Felipe Angell escrita para preceder a mil sinlogismos cuidadosamente seleccionados constituye la primera entrega de un proyecto mucho m�s ambicioso que su autora se propone completar en un futuro inmediato: estudiar los aspectos m�s significativos de la obra de Sofocleto. El humor veta muy poco cultivada en lengua espa�ola a pesar de su aparente superficialidad es sin lugar a dudas uno de los m�s sugestivos ejercicios de la inteligencia desde el punto de vista de su acuidad intuitiva de su r�pida capacidad de s�ntesis de su original libertad l�dica.

Martinelli Francesco
Manuale di diritto dell'Unione Europea. Aspetti istituzionali e politiche dell'Unione
brossura Il Manuale di Diritto dell'Unione europea, giunto alla XXVIII edizione, offre una trattazione completa ed aggiornata del sistema giuridico istituzionale dell'Unione e del diritto materiale dell'UE (mercato interno, spazio di libertà, sicurezza e giustizia, altre politiche interne e l'azione esterna dell'Unione). Il testo ripercorre i momenti cruciali che a partire da questo decennio hanno messo a dura prova l'Europa e i suoi cittadini. L'ultimo, determinato dalla pandemia di Covid-19, che ha compromesso gravemente il tessuto economico e sociale europeo, ha spinto l'Unione europea a definire varie iniziative e misure per far fronte alla crisi sanitaria. Tra le misure adottate, in particolare è stato istituito il nuovo strumento europeo per la ripresa e la resilienza Recovery Fund (regolamento UE 12 febbraio 2021, n. 2021/241): il principale dispositivo di intervento, che mette a disposizione degli Stati membri prestiti e sovvenzioni ed alla base dei Piani Nazionali di Ripresa e Resilienza (PNRR), presentati dagli Stati membri. Questa nuova edizione è, altresì, aggiornata alle varie novità normative, che hanno inciso in maniera evidente sui vari settori di competenza dell'Unione europea. Tra queste si segnalano: la firma degli accordi modificativi del Trattato che istituisce il Meccanismo europeo di stabilità (MES) da parte dei rappresentanti degli Stati membri, il 27 gennaio 2021; il regolamento UE del 17 dicembre 2020, n. 2020/2093, che stabilisce il nuovo quadro finanziario pluriennale per il periodo 2021-2027; i nuovi programmi quadro adottati in materia di ricerca e innovazione, istruzione e formazione e nel settore ambientale per allinearli con il quadro finanziario pluriennale 2021-2027. Il Manuale, per come è strutturato, costituisce, dunque un valido strumento di studio per una preparazione esaustiva in vista di esami e concorsi nonché per l'aggiornamento professionale.

Mastrocola Paola
La passione ribelle
br. Oggi non si studia più. È da predestinati alla sconfitta. Lo studio evoca Leopardi che perde la giovinezza, si rovina la salute e rimane solo come un cane. È Pinocchio che vende i libri per andare a vedere le marionette. È la scuola, l'adolescenza coi brufoli, la fatica, la noia, il dovere. È un'ombra che oscura il mondo, è una crepa sul muro: incrina e abbuia la nostra gaudente e affollata voglia di vivere nel presente. Lo studio è sparito dalle nostre vite. E con lui è sparito il piacere per le cose che si fanno senza pensare a cosa servono. La cosa più incredibile è che non importa a nessuno.

Mathew Brady Studio
Commodore Matthew C. Perry three-quarter length portrait in uniform his left hand resting on his sword
<p>This is the splendid Perry Family hand-colored Imperial print of Mathew Brady's portrait of Commodore Perry. Brady coined the term "imperial' for his large photographic portraits intended to rival mezzotints and lithographs in size.</p><p>Perry was one of the leading American naval officers in the years following the War of 1812. His principal wartime command was as head of naval forces in the Mexican-American War. Perry is most famous for opening Japan to the West. In 1852 President Millard Fillmore sent Perry and the East Asia Squadron to establish relations with the government of Japan which had been largely closed to outsiders for more than two centuries. Perry's deft handling of negotiations led to the Treaty of Kanagawa in 1854. "Perry's mission was a turning point for Japan on the road to economic and political change and to world prominence. For the United States Perry's mission was an early expression of American commercial and economic advance into the Pacific and East Asia" ANB.</p><p>"Perry was accorded a hero's welcome on his return to New York City" ANB where he went to Brady's studio for this impressive portrait. "Early on Brady set himself the task of photographing the nation's leading figures: presidents and military men business leaders and stars of the stage writers and artists. Each photograph of a man or woman of mark displayed in the studio's reception room attracted new clients and bore witness to the skill art and social standing of 'Brady of Broadway' as much as it did to the taste and station of the sitter" Metropolitan Museum of Art.</p><p>Upon viewing one of Brady's "life size portraits" a commentator in Harper's Weekly noted in 1857 "The vocation for the portrait painter is not gone but modified. Portrait painting by the old methods is as completely defunct as is navigation by the stars." The most expensive form of the Brady Imperial was the hand-colored salt print. This example was purchased by or given to Perry and then descended through his family until the present.</p><p>Provenance: Commodore Matthew C. Perry; his daughter Caroline Perry Belmont; her daughter Bessie Belmont Timmerman; by descent in the family.</p><p>Hand-colored salt print 15½ x 18½ in. original printed mount stating "Imperial Photograph / Brady New York." Short closed tear to mount. Very good condition.</p><br /> Mathew Brady Studio

Mathew Brady Studio
Cornelius Vanderbilt vignetted standing portrait
<p>Founder of the Vanderbilt business dynasty Cornelius Vanderbilt made his fortune first in steamships and shipping and then in railroads. His career spanned the birth of the steamship and the development of the great American railroad networks. He was "the oldest and perhaps the greatest of the nineteenth-century railroad barons" ANB. Grand Central Station and Vanderbilt University stand as testaments to his influence and wealth.</p><p>Vanderbilt was the second wealthiest person in American history behind John D. Rockefeller according to Klepper and Gunther <i>The Wealthy 100</i>. His wealth as a share of United States GDP extrapolates to $143 billion in 2007 dollars.</p><p>This photograph is probably by Mathew Brady Studio. The size of the sheet is identical to Brady's Imperial portraits and it is likely that Brady used a slightly smaller portrait on this large sheet in order to make it consonant with the rest of his run of Imperial portraits of great Americans. "Early on Brady set himself the task of photographing the nation's leading figures: presidents and military men business leaders and stars of the stage writers and artists. Each photograph of a man or woman of mark displayed in the studio's reception room attracted new clients and bore witness to the skill art and social standing of 'Brady of Broadway' as much as it did to the taste and station of the sitter" Metropolitan Museum of Art.</p><p>Albumen print 9 x 13 in. vignetted image the entire sheet measuring 15½ x 18½ in. Some soiling and wear.</p><br /> New York: Mathew Brady Studio, 1860s.

Mathew Brady Studio
David T. Valentine
<p>This is a delightful Brady Imperial salt print portrait of one of the fascinating political and literary characters of mid-nineteenth-century New York David T. Valentine.</p><p>David T. Valentine was clerk of the Common Council of New York now City Council and an avid collector of historical materials. His classic annual <i>Manual of the Corporation of the City of New York</i> 1841-1867 better known as Valentine's Manual has long been one of the most valuable resources for scholars and aficionados of New York history.</p><p>The <i>New York Times</i> review of the <i>Manual</i> for 1863 noted "Services to posterity of this nature are generally tendered at the sacrifice of the present and it is a happy coincidence which has placed Mr. VALENTINE in a position of such usefulness both to our own and to succeeding generations. … If any one among us may calculate surely on a sublunary immortality Mr. VALENTINE is the man. He has linked his name indissolubly with one of the greatest cities in the world in a manner 'which time shall strengthen not efface.' As the laborious digger and delver among old Dutch manuscripts in search of the first faint traces of the municipal existence of New Amsterdam or as the recorder of the rising glories and meridian splendors of the New-York of our own day his name will meet the future investigator as every step."</p><p>"Early on Brady set himself the task of photographing the nation's leading figures: presidents and military men business leaders and stars of the stage writers and artists. Each photograph of a man or woman of mark displayed in the studio's reception room attracted new clients and bore witness to the skill art and social standing of 'Brady of Broadway' as much as it did to the taste and station of the sitter" Metropolitan Museum of Art.</p><p>Salted paper print 18 x 13 ½ in. unmounted. One inch closed tear at blank upper right corner else in fine condition.</p><br /> Brady Studio

Henry A. Wise
<p>This is a dramatic full-length standing salt print portrait of Gov. Henry A. Wise by Mathew Brady.</p><p>Wise served for years in Congress as a Jackson Democrat and later was governor of Virginia in 1856-60. One of his last official acts was to sign John Brown's death warrant. A supporter of secession Wise was commissioned a brigadier general in the Confederate Army though he had no military training. He served for the duration of the war ultimately surrendering with Lee at Appomattox. He was "one of the most notable 'political generals' on either side" ANB. After the war Wise lost the family plantation which had been taken over as "abandoned" by the Union Army and then the Freedmen's Bureau.</p><p>"Early on Brady set himself the task of photographing the nation's leading figures: presidents and military men business leaders and stars of the stage writers and artists. Each photograph of a man or woman of mark displayed in the studio's reception room attracted new clients and bore witness to the skill art and social standing of 'Brady of Broadway' as much as it did to the taste and station of the sitter" Metropolitan Museum of Art.</p><p>This portrait of Wise is evidently one of the "published" Imperial portraits issued by Brady. "These 'published' Imperial prints were announced in the <i>New York Times</i> on August 11 1858: 'Brady has just commenced the publication of a series of imperial photographs. The first of the series is an excellent portrait of John J. Crittenden of Kentucky' … At 12 x 9 5/8 inches they were smaller than Brady's sumptuous Imperial photographs and issued on paper mounts engraved with the Brady studio location and sometimes with the name of the figure pictured. In presentation and style they resemble mezzotint portraits of earlier centuries. A reduced step from the custom Imperial portrait though still a photographic process this new 'imperial' format could be mass-produced by the studio and sold commercially to anyone who might like to own a portrait of a famous American statesman" New York Historical Society.</p><p>This is an impressive standing salt print Imperial portrait of a leading figure of the Confederacy.</p><p>Salted paper print 12 x 9 ½ in. original printed mount captioned "Hon. Henry A. Wise" and signed in print "Photograph by Brady New York and Washington." Mount worn and creased. The print is in very good condition.</p><br /> Brady Studio

Mathew Brady Studio
Judah P. Benjamin
<p>This is an outstanding hand-colored salt print of Confederate statesman Judah P. Benjamin one of the most prominent American Jews of the nineteenth century. A leading attorney and a prominent sugar planter he served as U.S. Senator from Louisiana in the 1850s. He declined Millard Fillmore's offer of a position on the Supreme Court which would have made him the first Jew on the nation's highest court. With the establishment of the Confederacy Jefferson Davis appointed Benjamin to a series of cabinet posts: attorney general secretary of war and secretary of state. At the end of the Civil War Benjamin fled to England where he established a highly successful law practice never to return to America.</p><p>This photograph is by Mathew Brady Studio. "Early on Brady set himself the task of photographing the nation's leading figures: presidents and military men business leaders and stars of the stage writers and artists. Each photograph of a man or woman of mark displayed in the studio's reception room attracted new clients and bore witness to the skill art and social standing of 'Brady of Broadway' as much as it did to the taste and station of the sitter" Metropolitan Museum of Art.</p><p>Brady coined the term "imperial' for his large photographic portraits intended to rival mezzotints and lithographs in size. The only other example of this imposing Judah Benjamin portrait that we have seen is that at the Chicago Historical Society slightly larger at 17 x 19 in. Upon viewing one of Brady's "life size portraits" a commentator in Harper's Weekly noted in 1857 "The vocation for the portrait painter is not gone but modified. Portrait painting by the old methods is as completely defunct as is navigation by the stars."</p><p>This is a splendid hand-colored Brady Imperial salt print of one of the great figures in American Jewish history.</p><p>Hand colored salted paper print 12 x 16 ½ in. Matted and framed. Small loss to blank lower right corner of print; short closed at top.</p><br /> Mathew Brady Studio
