Errand into the Wilderness
New York: Harper Torchbooks 1964. Trade Paperback. Good. Wrappers rubbed ink name and ink underlining. 1964 Trade Paperback. We have more books available by this author!. x 244 12 pp. The title of this book by Perry Miller who is world-famous as an interpreter of the American past comes close to posing the question it has been Mr. Miller's lifelong purpose to answer: What was the underlying aim of the first colonists in coming to America In what light did they see themselves As men and women undertaking a mission that was its own cause and justification Or did they consider themselves errand boys for a higher power which might as is frequently the habit of authority change its mind about the importance of their job before they had completed it These questions are by no means frivolous. They go to the roots of seventeenth-century thought and of the ever-widening and quickening flow of events since then. Disguised from twentieth-century readers first by the New Testament language and thought of the Puritans and later by the complacent transcendentalist belief in the oversoul the related problems of purpose and reason-for-being have been central to the American experience from the very beginning. Mr. Miller makes this abundantly clear and real and in doing so allows the reader to conclude that whatever else America might have become it could never have developed into a society that took itself for granted.

Go Figure! New Perspectives on Guston
New York NY: American Academy in Rome / New York Review Books 2014. Hardcover. VG. Tan canvas white & illus. dust jacket 156 pp. color illus. A collection of 13 essays that consider the life and work of New York School painter and abstract expressionist Philip Guston 1913-1980. In 2010 " the American Academy in Rome organized a two-day conference with an international roster of critics and art historians to discuss the significance and critical fortunes of Guston's work paying special attention to his life-long attentiveness to Italian art and culture. Emerging out of that symposium the texts contained herein casst a wide net. They reflect a wide variety of perspectives including reflections from leading specialists and several of Guston's long-time friends and collaborators as well as those by younger scholars who have paved new ground in recent studies of Guston's work. A conversation between Robert Storr and the artist Chuck Close -- hosted by the Phillips Collection in Washington D.C. in February 2011 -- yields further insights. This volume opens new avenues of inquiry complicating the conventional narrative about Guston's purportedly dramatic shift from abstraction to figuration unveiled at the Marlborough show in 1970." dj.

Uncut. Contemporary marbled paper boards expertly rebacked to style in tan calf spine gilt with raised bands. Housed in a slipcase.<br/> <br/>A lovely set of the first edition of Miller's illustrated supplement to his overwhelmingly popular Gardeners Dictionary.<br/> <br/>While conceived as a complement to an earlier publication Miller's Figures of . Plants "is a sufficiently complete work and may be rated on its own merits" Hunt. In the preface Miller stated his intention of publishing one figure of a plant for every known genus but abandoned this in favor of ".those Plants only which are either curious in themselves or may be useful in Trades Medicine &c. including the Figures of such new Plants as have not been noticed by any former Botanists." The plants illustrated were either engraved from drawings of specimens in the Chelsea Physic Garden or drawings supplied by Miller's numerous correspondents including John Bartram the Pennsylvania naturalist cf. plate 272 and Dr. William Houston who travelled widely in the Americas and West Indies and bequeathed Miller his papers drawings and herbarium cf. plates 44 and 182. For the plants drawn from examples in the Garden Miller employed Richard Lancake and two of the leading botanical artists and engravers of the period Georg Dionysius Ehret and Johann Sebastian Miller. Like Miller's Catalogus Plantarum many of the etched and engraved plates are delicately printed in colour i.e. green to give a more life-like impression after hand colouring. The work was published by subscription in 50 monthly parts with each part containing 6 plates between 25 March 1755 and 30 June 1760. Two later editions were published in 1771 and 1809. Complete sets of the first edition are scarce particularly in such lovely original condition.<br/> <br/>Nissen BBI 1378; Great Flower Books p. 121; Dunthorne 209; Henrey 1097; Hunt 566; Stafleu and Cowen TL2 6059; Pritzel 6241.
