‎Original Letter of Science Fiction War Relief Society to SF Agent Forrest Ackerman‎

‎Beaumont: Science Fiction War Relief 1942. Original Letter . Stapled Sheets. Very Good. Original two page typed letter from John M Cunningham on SFWR letterhead discussing exchanges of SF and other materials. "The August 1941 FWD carried a letter from Texas fan John M.Cunningham in which he announced that: ".I have formed the BSFWRS -- British Science Fiction War Relief Society -- and as director of said organisation ask your support and help in same. The purpose of the NON-PROFIT organisation is to supply FREE OF CHARGE to British S-F fans United States Pro S-F magazines." Cunningham asked British fans to arrange the distribution of these promags and proposed involving as many US fans as possible at his end of things. Within a couple of months the BSFWRS was up and running the generosity of those American fans who donated magazines providing a literary lifeline that British fans of the period will always remember and feel grateful for." Rob Hansen in "Then" 1988 - 1992. <br/> <br/> [Science Fiction War Relief] unknown‎

Front flyleaf gone Note: This title of 1687 is a philological tour de force of the Dutch classical scholar Gisbertus Cuper or Cuperus in Dutch Gijsbert Kuiper 1644-1716. He was professor of Latin and Greek literature at the 'Athenaeum Illustre' of Deventer from 1668 till 1681 and at the same time mayor of this old city which once had been a member of the Hanseatic League. Cuper has his own lemma on Wikipedia in Dutch only. In this title Cuper examines a deity of Egyptian origin Harpocrates who was imported into Rome in the second century B.C. and who was connected with the mystery cult of the Egyptian goddess Isis. Cuper's research began he tells us in the preface with a small silver statuette which he saw in the famous collection of his friend and scholar Johannes Smetius whom he visited in 1674 in Nijmegen. The statuette was found in the ground of the collector's hometown Nijmegen. It is a sculpture of a small boy almost naked and with a lotus flower on his head. He is winged and wears a small quiver on his back; the boy holds the index finger of his right hand against his lips as if to enjoin silence. p. 1: 'manus dextrae digito indice premit vocem & silentia suadet' From his right arm hangs a small bucket situla and around his left arm coils a snake. His left hand rests on a club around which another snake coils and to which a goose has been attached. At the boy's right foot sits a rabbit or hare. At his left foot a small bird of prey accipiter vel alia avis. p. 2 As soon as Cuper saw this aenigmatic figurine he decided to examine it for he could not imagine that all those attributes had been added without any intention. He recognized the boy from a Egyptian hieroglyph as Harpocration whom Egyptian superstition brought to Rome. He immediately realized also that this boy did not ask for silence non silentium tantum digito suadens but that he represented the Sun verum Solis imaginem referens. p. 2 In the rest of the book Cuper closely examines all the relevant passages concerning Harpocrates' iconography in ancient authors in mythology on gemmae coins inscriptions amulets etc. to prove his point that Harpocrates's finger was misunderstood from the Roman scholar Varro to Augustine and that the boy was not a diety of Silence at all. The boy did not ask for silence he argues but was a representation of the rising sun because the ancient Egyptians greeted and honoured it's appearance by pressing their index finger against their lips. The 'Harpocrates' was first published in 1676 in Amsterdam 'apud Theodorum Pluymer'. This 1687 edition is a reissue considerably augmented with 'Gisberti Cuperi Monumenta antiqua inedita' ca. 70 pages in which Cuper discusses recent finds. He offers a description and image of the finds and tries to explain matters with the help of ancient sources and the work of contemporary scholars. At the end has also been added 'Ad Gisb. Cuperum De Melanphoris epististola' 30 pages written by the French orientalist Stephanus Le Moine 1624-1689 who lectured in Leiden from 1676. His letter is a treatise on the black clothes melamphoroi which the members of the Isis fraternities wore when they lamented the fate of their goddess. This book of Cuper is tough reading the Latin is difficult and it abounds in philological pedantry. The Latin text of the second part of the book Cuper's 'Monumenta antiqua inedita' can be found on: stilus.nl/cuper/ where one can also download a translation of it into Dutch by Leo Nellissen who is an expert on Smetius Collation: 4 including frontispiece; A-Z4 Aa-Pp4 Qq2 Photographs on request hardcover‎
