FLODER J.
Johannis Floderi in Athenaeo Upsaliensi olim Graecar. Litterar. Professoris et Reg. Acad. Litt. Hum. Stockh. membri Opuscula oratoria et po�tica.
Uppsala Upsaliae Typis viduae directoris Joh. Edman 1791. VIII419121 blank p. Contemporary wrappers 21 cm Note: The historian of classical philology John Edwin Sandys did not think much of Swedish philology up to 1800. Not a few of the Swedish scholars 'were in the habit of writing Greek compositions either in prose or in elegiac or in hexameter verse but they very rarely produced any editions of Greek authors and such authors as they happened to edit were seldom of special importance'. They only deserve credit for continuing to tend and cultivate 'in that northern clime the exotic plant of Greek learning'. Sandys 3348 One of the few scholars Sandys mentions is Johannes Floderus 1721-1789 'who was also an able Latin orator who took a prominent part in no less than 108 Latin disputations and left behind him a large number of 'Opuscula oratoria et poetica' posthumously published in 1791'. Floderus was professor of Greek at the University of Uppsala from 1762. The 'Conspectus voluminis' offers the following parts: 1 Oratio Inaug. ad Prof. Gr. L. 1762; 2 Oratiuncula primae lect. publ. praemissa 1762; 3 Elogium funebre Divo Adolpho Friderico 1771; 4 Parentalia N. Ros�n a Rosenstein facta 1775. 5 Officium Parent. J. Ihre praestitum 1781; 6 Oratio Parent. in memor. C. Aurivilii 1786; 7 Laudatio Funebris C.F. Mennander 1787; 8 Oratio quum Rect. Acad. deponeret 1770; 9 Oration quum Rect. Acad. se abdicaret 1778; 10 Oratio in Promot. Philosoph. 1785; 11 Programmata; 12 Carminum libri duo 98 p.; 13 Index 158 Dissertationum auctoris. At the end is a 11 page list of subscribers Collation: pi4 A-2D8 2D8 verso blank Photographs on request unknown

FLORA G SCHILLING
1900 CHARMING ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARY HANDWRITTEN BY A WEST CENTRAL INDIANA WOMAN AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY
LAFAYETTE INDIANA. Good. 1900. On offer is an interesting small diary/memo book written between Oct 1st 1900 and Feb 19th by Flora G Schilling an Indiana student. The memo book measures about 5 1/2 in by 2 3/4 in and was a promotional item put out by "Bert A. Drees Pharmacist" of Lafayette IN. With 30 pages it is in very good condition and 100% complete. The handwriting is quite legible. The heading of the first page note Class of 01 which would seem to confirm her status as a student. References on page 3 indicate that Schilling and her friends attended the annual Fall Carnival. The entries are sporadic in nature and some are undated. A notable entry in this little journal was: "Roosevelt came to the city. watching the Rough rider on Main Street." Oct 10 1900. This is a reference to the 1900 US Presidential election campaign where Theodore Roosevelt's was running as Vice-Presidential candidate. Most entries are of a chatty nature: "Frank and I went to dancing school Had a royal time" p10. "Preparing for examination in Astronomy." Dec 12 1900 "E. S. & I bidding V goodbye. Went downtown to to sample candy" pp15-16. "Sister M was in the room and had to study oh so hard I went to dance Monday night and had a swell time." Jan 7 1901. An interesting little notebook with an important historical reference - Wm. McKinley was in fact elected President with Roosevelt as his Vice President and less than 1 year later Roosevelt would be President following McKinley's assassination.; Manuscript; 24mo - over 5" - 5�" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF UNITED STATES INDIANA TIPPECANOE COUNTY LAFAYETTE 19TH CENTURY 20TH CENTURY 1900S PROGRESSIVE ERA FLORA G SHILLING LAFAYETTE IN TEDDY ROOSEVELT 1900 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION WILLIAM MCKINLEY WM.

FLORENCE William J. "Billy" 1831 91
Photograph Signed
This American actor playwright and songwriter was the toast of the New York stage starting with "A Row at the Lyceum" in 1851 also touring England Europe and even the Middle East to great acclaim often performing the dialect routines so popular at that time; in 1870 in York Florence and a noted physician named Walter Fleming founded the Shriners the masonic service organization. Incredibly unusual PS 5" X 4�" Philadelphia PA n.y. ca. 1875 March 16. Good plus. Lightly soiled with couple of edge chips along the top. Custom-printed envelope of the popular actor featuring his head-and-shoulders portrait printed in blue filling the leftmost third of the envelope. Below this he signs boldly and also addresses the envelope to B.E. Woolf of the Saturday Gazette in Boston. Stamped and bearing partial circular postal inkstamp at upper right. Editor Woolf was also a critic musician composer and playwright and in 1875 his play "The Mighty Dollar" featuring Florence in the lead premiered. Along the top on the verso Florence pens: "We play in Hartford / New Haven / Providence / Next week. / F." Given Florence and Woolf's relationship it's likely he was reporting on the touring schedule for "The Mighty Dollar" or another Woolf play. Extremely interesting and attractive item. unknown

FLORENCE E. HUGHES
1933 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT RELIC OF DEPRESSION ERA TENNESSEE AND A SADLY TYPICAL LOOK AT THE LIFE AND TIMES AND RACE RELATIONS OF THE DAY
SPRINGFIELD BARREN PLAINS TENNESSEE. Good. 1933. On offer is a very interesting manuscript diary handwritten by Florence E. Hughes who lived in or near Springfield Tennessee in 1933. We believe Florence was an African American woman though this is not stated categorically in the book there seems little doubt given the clues some activities etc. Florence was born on July 4th 1867. She married Walter S. Hughes in 1890 and had three children with rather interesting names; Golden R. Pearl M. and Jewel A. She talks of "traveling" to Springfield and living closer to Barren Plains which she writes about it as if it were home. Prolific but rather illiterate Florence details life and quite a few deaths from the area talks of barn dances tobacco growing shows coming into town a "Negro" trial that was held on their front lawn and much more for a full diary. Her husband was a blacksmith by trade and Florence designed several gravestones for her family and some local folks providing a very broad knowledge base of doings in the town. Here are some snippets: 1933 "January 1st Mary Olive Highsmith Jones will have her funeral at the Baptist Church here today. She died at her home in Murfreesboro Tenn. on Friday and brought here to her mother and father's Mr. and Mrs. P.M. Highsmith on Saturday and kept her there until today. Buried her in Springfield.

Florence Heller
1930s Multi-Year Interwar Diary of a Middle Class Jewish New Yorker Age 16 Untouched by the Great Depression and Unaware of the Inequities of the Time
New York City Interwar NY: Interwar Years Great Depression New York City Teen. Good. 1930s. Hardcover. On offer is a well-kept Jewish middle class teenage girl's five-year diary from the 1930's in New York City. The author of the diary is Florence Heller. She lives in New York City and context suggests that she is 16 years of age when she begins it. Our informal research has not found any other additional biographical information about her. The diary covers the years 1933 and 1934 with several more entries scattered of the following 3 years. Her family is Jewish and as owners of a shop occupy a middle class position in the community. There are no references to the widespread economic woes of the Great Depression and her life seems insulated from its ravages. As you would expect it is chock full of the events and names of individuals that made up her busy adolescent life. "My birthday - terrible time - went shopping for a party - bought nothing. Sam Gottlieb called - had a good laugh" Jan 2 1933; "Got a call from Benny - he's bringing a friend along for Yetta - hope its someone nice . Yetta slept over. Benny brought Hal much to my disappointment - Benny is just about crazy over me - Saw Irving while walking with Benny - was a bad girl because I kissed too much" Feb 24 1933; "I wonder if I should go with Perry. I'll ask Lillie what to do"June 24 1933; "Yetta told me she met a nice fellow in nite school - I ought to go too - maybe I'll meet a nice fellow ." Oct 23 1933; "Closed store - Bob came in - said he didn't write because he was ill - I don't particularly care for Bob - We're going out tomorrow with Charlie and a girl" Jan 13 1934. The simple reference to the family having a 'colored girl' to do housekeeping hints at the racial and economic divisions in their society: "Francis the colored girl didn't come so I had to clean put on curtains & change bedding. After shower we had seder" Mar 30 1934. For a researcher into Women's Studies or a social historian this is an excellent window into the world of teenage girls during the inter-war years. The attitudes hinted at in this diary point to the type of traditional roles for women that would be steadily altered over her lifetime. The diary measures 5.5 inches by 4.0 inches and contains 365 pages. It is approximately 40% complete. The book is in good condition. The cover is a soft leather with an embossed design and shows little sign of wear. The handwriting is legible.; Manuscripts; 24mo 5" - 6" tall; 365 pages; Keywords: handwritten manuscript document letter autograph writer hand written documents signed letters manuscripts historical holograph writers autographs personal memoir memorial antiquit� contrat v�lin document manuscrit papier antike brief pergament dokument manuskript papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antig�edad hecho vitela documento manuscrito papel Classism racism Great Depression Lived Experiences Girls experiences women's studies growing up in New York NYC New York in the 1930s interwar years middle class Jewish women Jewish teenager store owner Jewish store owners Jewish middle class NYC Americana US History ; Signed by Author .
