Per Wikipedia Hans Hermann Herz 1908 -2005 Was An American Scholar Of International Relations And Law. He Coined The Concept Of The Security Dilemma.

In 1938 He Emigrated To The United States. In The United States He Found A Temporary Position At Princeton University Through The Assistance Of Abraham Flexner. In 1940 He Also Worked At Trinity College Connecticut. In 1941 Ralph Bunche Who Headed The Political Science Department At Howard University Hired Herz. In Wwii He Served As A Political Analyst For The Oss Office Of Strategic Services And The State Department. After World War Ii He Worked As A Political Analyst For The Us State Department - He Took Part In The Us Delegation To The Nuremberg Trials And Also Helped Draw Up A Plan For Democratizing The Occupation Zone In Germany. In 1942 Herz Wrote That "Power Competition Among Several Units Of A System Eventually Leads Either To The Predominance Of One Of Them Or To The Establishment Of A System Where The Political Units Balance Each Other And Thus Can Continue To Exist Side By Side." Herz Wrote That A "World Government" Was Not Utopian But That The Shift From A System Of Nation-States To One Of World Government Would Require "An Ideological And Spiritual Revolution."

In The Book Herz Criticizes "Political Idealism" For Failing To Grapple With The Security Dilemma. He Crafts A Theory Of "Realist Liberalism. According To A 1952 Review Of The Book Herz's "Approach To The Problem Of Politics Is. Essentially Psychological In Character. Man He Thinks Is Driven In His Relations With Other Men By Two Contradictory Impulses. Through Fear Of Others He Is Impelled To Seek Security In A Competitive Struggle For Power; Through Compassion For His Fellow Men He Regrets The Sufferings Thus Entailed And Yearns For Universal Peace." The Following Year He Joined City College Of New York Where He Taught International Relations Until His Retirement In 1979. Herz Was One Of A Number Of Jewish Refugees From Nazi Germany Who Found Positions In American Universities And Taught International Relations From A Critical Realist Perspective. This Book Remains Of Academic Interest As There Is No Way To Use It To Support The Public Pronouncements Of Any Politician Or Media Celebrity Or Consultant. <br/> <br/> The University Of Chicago Press hardcover

The plates have as subject the plough and other farmer's tools. Volume 2 contains also 120 pages with extensive notes to Hesiod by Graevius and the Introduction of 64 pages to the 'Works and Days' by Daniel Heinsius.

Name erased from the front pastedown resulting into a small hole. Front flyleaf removed. All 4 decorative fastening ribbons gone. First title slightly finger soiled Note: Hesiodus from Askra a small town in Boiotia born ca. 775 BC is one of Greek's oldest poets. His poems are in Homeric hexameters and show his interest in ethics and systematization. His work was known throughout antiquity to rhapsodes scholars and schoolboys. The Byzantines compiled scholia from ancient commentaries for elucidation. The Renaissance did not quite appreciate him. Until 1667 circa 18 editions of his 'opera omnia' were published not much. Hesiod's reception chiefly concerns myths and the motifs that he provides and these motifs certainly appealed to mythographers historians of religion poets and painters. 'Hesiodic details of myth saturate European epic and mythopoeic writings perhaps most spectacular in Dante Milton Blake . who make much of Hesiod's infernal regions his Titans and primordial monsters his giant battles'. The Classical Tradition N.Y 2010 p. 435 Of Hesiod survives his 'Theogonia' or 'Theogony' which 'deals with the origin and genealogy of the gods . and the events that led to the kingship of Zeus: the castration of Uranos by Kronos and the overthrow of Kronos and the Titans by the Olympians' OCD 2nd ed. p. 510 The 'Works and Days' or 'Erga kai Hêmerai' of Hesiod which was always most read has been called a 'gospel of labour'. The poet recommends the hard and honest life of a farmer. He 'inveighs against dishonesty and idleness by turns using myth . parable allegory and threats of divine anger. . The poem as a whole is a unique source for social conditions in early archaic Greece.' Idem p. 511 The third poem that has survived is the 'Shield' or 'Aspis' a short narrative poem on Heracles' fight with Cycnus a bloodthirsty son of the god Ares. It derives its name from the long description of Heracles' shield. § 'Artists have never abandoned a fascination with Hesiod on the Muses. In the 19th century the artist Gustave Moreau created many visual representations of their initiation of the poet. Both Rubens and Goya painted famous and harrowing pictures of Kronos Saturn devouring one of his children a motif from the Theogony; William Blake engraved a series after drawings by his friend John Flaxman . Georges Braque chose the 'Theogony' as the subject of 20 etchings'. The Classical Tradition N.Y. 2010 p. 436 § This edition of 1701 is except for a short 'dedicatio' and 'ad lectorem' at the beginning of volume 1 the work of the Dutch/Swiss scholar Johannes Clericus or Jean Le Clerc 1657-1736 mainly a reissue of the Hesiod edition of 1667 that was produced by the Dutch classical scholar of German descent Johann Georg Greffe better known as Graevius 1632-1703 professor of Latin at the University of Utrecht during the last forty years of his life. The Hesiod was his only edition of a Greek classic. Graevius limited his attention mainly to writers of Latin prose and primarily to Cicero. Graevius corrected the text of the 'Works and Days' with the help of two manuscripts owned by Isaac Vossius. One them contained commentary of Tzetzes. From the French scholar Emericus Bigotius he received annotations of J.J. Scaliger and Franciscus Guietus. The first volume contains the Greek text revised by Graevius and a corrected Latin translation. The second Graevius' own annotations and the observations of Scaliger and Guietus and the 'Introductio' to the 'Works and Days' of the Dutch scholar Daniel Heinsius Provenance: On the verso of the front flyleaf 'Ex libris H.J.

Georges Braque chose the 'Theogony' as the subject of 20 etchings'. The Classical Tradition N.Y. 2010 p. 436 § This edition of Hesiod is a kind of 'editio minor' of the 'editio maior' that was produced by the Dutch classical scholar of Flemish origin Daniel Heinsius 1580-1655 and which was published ten years earlier in 1603. For this edition in a smaller form he left out the Byzantine scholia sine veterum interpretatione and made some corrections in the text and the translation. 'The text is not formed altogether on the preceding editions: where it differs from them the reason of such difference is given in the notes'. Dibdin 233 § Heinsius who enjoyed an international reputation as an editor of classical texts theorist of literary criticism historian and neolatin poet was professor of Poetics at the University of Leiden from 1603 extraordinarius Greek since 1605. After the death of J.J. Scaliger to whose inner circle he belonged he held the chair of Greek from 1609 till 1647. His activities have been obscured to later generations by the very bulk and variety of his activities. He is still remembered for his neolatin poetry and for his edition of Aristotle's treatise on poetry 1610 which he studied in connection with the Ars Poetica of Horace. In his pamphlet De tragoediae Constitutione published in 1611 he deals with all the essential points in Aristotle's treatise giving proof that he has thoroughly imbibed the author's spirit'. J.E.

HESTER OAKLEY MEIGS
1916 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT TRAVEL JOURNAL HANDWRITTEN BY A VERY YOUNG VERY DELIGHTFUL AND INSIGHTFUL DIARIST WHOSE FAMILY FOUNDED SARAH LAWRENCE COLLEGE
BRONXVILLE LAWRENCE PARK NEW YORK. Good. 1916. On offer is a delightful travel journey of a 12 year old girl crossing the North American continent in the early 20th Century. Hester Oakley Meigs was the grand-daughter of William Van Duzer Lawrence. Lawrence was a wealthy businessman who envisaged and then created the planned artist community of Bronxville NY about 15 miles north of Manhattan. He also established the liberal arts college Sarah Lawrence College and named it after his wife and Meigs' grand-mother Sarah Lawrence. The journal is a small 6 inch by 3 1/2 inch notebook of 90 pages. It is about 50% complete covering the time period July 27 to Sept 2nd 1916. The journal is in good condition and the handwriting is quite legible. The journey was made by train with her parents when Meigs was 12 years old. Her excitement and joy shine through on each page. . I am thrilled to tears! July 27 - her first entry about upcoming trip. In Chicago she notes . went on an elevator ride for the first time in my life! July 29 Upon seeing the mountains she wrote . I think the Rocky Mountains are perfectly wonderfu l Aug 1 For lunch we stopped at a little place called Pawoska properly Pahaska It was as rustic as anything could be. It belonged to Buffalo Bill who is Mr. Cody Aug 5 She has a good eye for details and each day diligently records where they visited interesting incidents and happenings Her writing is clear and quite well structured for one her age: . there was an old stamp mill where they separated the gold from the silver and both from the ore Lu and I started out after lunch for the stamp mill in hopes that we might pick up a nuggets or two but nothing happened that way. On the way we discovered the tunnel where they dug for the mineral. We decided that if we had had a little nerve and an electric torch we would have gone in and explored it for we thought we would have gotten gold and silver in plenty and would have picked up bits that must have fallen down and not been picked up for i don't believe anybody has been in there. Two men we camping in the mill and I told Lu i wished them joy because I would have been scared to death for those spooks. 17 August. This is a wonderfully innocent and clear depiction of her journey and her experiences. It gives a look at this long-lost world through the eyes of a curious and educated child. A historian would find many tidbits of information and observations that make the west at the turn of the last century come alive. An art historian would find this a valuable link with the very successful artists' colony at Lawrence Park /Bronxville.; Manuscript; 24mo - over 5" - 5¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF HESTER OAKLEY MEIGS WILLIAM VAN DUZER LAWRENCE SARAH LAWRENCE COLLEGE VIOLET OAKLEY BRONXVILLE LAWRENCE PARK ART HISTORY NEW YORK THE BRONX ARTIST COLONY GENDER STUDIES PRE SUFFRAGE AMERICANA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH KEEPSAKE WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ARCHIVE DIARY DIARIES JOURNAL LOG ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO DANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . unknown
