US Navy / Oceanography / Gay Studies. Gordon Arthur 1899 1975
SAILOR - AUTHOR'S COLLECTION Of MANUSCRIPT And ARCHIVAL MATERIAL Documenting Life in the Merchant Marine during the Depression. Including an Unpublished Autobiographical Story MS Correspondence a Yearbook and 250 Photographs
various various. Ca. 1918 - 1936. Most items loose disbound. PARTIAL COLLECTION with at least one element a 1919 diary known to be elsewhere. Two letters quite toned and brittle; evidence of photo album removal to verso of postcards and occasional other items including 6 RPPCs affixed to full leaf; slight mustiness. Some photographs poorly developed and/or lightly soiled. Overall text is clean legible and images are sharp. About Very Good. Total of 83 manuscript and 2 typescript letters plus 1 V-mail comprising 250 pp; of these 54 are from Arthur to various friends etc. 155 pp and 29 are from Arthur's parents and 3 are from others 97 pp. "Notes" folder: 64 ruled leaves 1 blank manuscript text to recto only. Scrapbook album: 46 tan construction paper leaves several blank and/or noticeably missing items. Numerous loose ephemera. Over 250 b/w photographs ranging in size from ~2-1/4" x 1-1/4" to 8" x 10" including many official Navy photos. Also 8 b/w RPPCs 2 half-tones and various negatives color printed certificates postcards etc. Most text on 10-1/2" x 8" leaves. <br/><br/>A collection of material detailing career sailor and struggling writer Arthur Gordon’s attempts to find work in the Merchant Marine during the height of the Great Depression as well as his considerable efforts to set aside time for writing and honing his craft. Gordon served as a lieutenant in the Navy during WWI as Chief Writer on the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Oceanographer during the early 1930s and again as an officer in the U.S. Navy during WWII eventually attaining the rank of commander; his stories of sea life were published in various popular magazines primarily during the 1940s. Gordon is an introspective writer with a good if sometimes uneven sense of how to turn his experiences and thoughts into an often humorous and lightly self-mocking story particularly in "Notes upon leaving the Coast Survey and looking for employment as a Merchant Mate Jan 5 - June 14 1935" a 63 pp autobiography of these experiences written in the third person. "Notes" offers a highly detailed account of Gordon's experiences as an unemployed seaman during the Depression and life aboard an oil tanker when his attempt to gain a position as a 3rd Mate didn't work out: "Las Piedras is an oil tank town with a single narrow dock extending from the shore providing bollards for tying up the ships and supports for the pipe lines. The town is small and I think exists only because of the oil tanks for the location has no charm otherwise. The white oil men live as colonials in an impoverished outpost. They take what stores they need from the steward's supplies aboard ship. Loading is done by gravity since the storage tanks ashore are on the cliff." The letters roughly divided between copies of correspondence sent from Arthur to his friends and letters sent to Arthur from his parents show Gordon to be an enthusiastic and encouraging friend to multiple young men and a few women as well as a dutiful son whose unemployed parents relied heavily on his earnings. Of some note as well are a handful of thoughtful if conflicted references to homosexuality with at least one of Gordon's male friends appearing to have a crush on him and hints that Gordon may have been in gay relationships himself and/or struggled with his sexuality: "…. I quite fully agree with you concerning the chemical make-up of man and the push and pull of attraction or dislike. I have had occasion to study what it is that draws me to which I react most noticeably and I am continually dismayed that usually it is the ‘wrong’ thing. . I’m skeptical of any kind of relation that presupposes permanency. Knowing myself I feel that ‘vows’ would soon be broken. I cannot stand constant association. Routine maddens me. The merest suggestion of ‘chain’ of compulsory anything and I’m off. I don’t think hetero marriages are particularly successful and I don’t think homo are either for almost the same reasons. I don’t mind the companionate idea with women. With men I fight shy. I am getting to the age where in others I condemn homo as degeneracy. I mean that among young people it seems almost natural as a manifestation of excess love as an overflow which can be handled without social consequences. At 45 it’s greasy and quite awful. Consider the advanced homos you know . . . Am I right I am not dictating here; nor dogmatizing. I hope to start a discussion. Homos are interesting to me because I find that along with it is usually an unidentified awareness and an understanding of life unequalled in the stolid conventionites. I do not think they are God’s elected but I don’t think that about any one….” All-in-all in interesting multilayered primary source account of one man's experiences at sea during the Depression and his deep engagement with his correspondents with heavy overtones of a writer's bildungsroman traveling seeking new experiences etc. unknown

The town is small and I think exists only because of the oil tanks for the location has no charm otherwise. The white oil men live as colonials in an impoverished outpost. They take what stores they need from the steward's supplies aboard ship. Loading is done by gravity since the storage tanks ashore are on the cliff." The letters roughly divided between copies of correspondence sent from Arthur to his friends and letters sent to Arthur from his parents show Gordon to be an enthusiastic and encouraging friend to multiple young men and a few women as well as a dutiful son whose unemployed parents relied heavily on his earnings. Of some note as well are a handful of thoughtful if conflicted references to homosexuality with at least one of Gordon's male friends appearing to have a crush on him and hints that Gordon may have been in gay relationships himself and/or struggled with his sexuality: "…. I quite fully agree with you concerning the chemical make-up of man and the push and pull of attraction or dislike. I have had occasion to study what it is that draws me to which I react most noticeably and I am continually dismayed that usually it is the ‘wrong’ thing. . I’m skeptical of any kind of relation that presupposes permanency. Knowing myself I feel that ‘vows’ would soon be broken. I cannot stand constant association. Routine maddens me. The merest suggestion of ‘chain’ of compulsory anything and I’m off. I don’t think hetero marriages are particularly successful and I don’t think homo are either for almost the same reasons. I don’t mind the companionate idea with women. With men I fight shy. I am getting to the age where in others I condemn homo as degeneracy. I mean that among young people it seems almost natural as a manifestation of excess love as an overflow which can be handled without social consequences. At 45 it’s greasy and quite awful. Consider the advanced homos you know . . . Am I right I am not dictating here; nor dogmatizing. I hope to start a discussion. Homos are interesting to me because I find that along with it is usually an unidentified awareness and an understanding of life unequalled in the stolid conventionites. I do not think they are God’s elected but I don’t think that about any one….” All-in-all in interesting multilayered primary source account of one man's experiences at sea during the Depression and his deep engagement with his correspondents with heavy overtones of a writer's bildungsroman traveling seeking new experiences etc. unknown books

VALLOTTI Pietro
Dissertazione sopra il flutto decumano detta in Brescia in una letteraria Conversazione in casa del Sign. Conte Gio. Maria Mazzucchelli il di' 5 maggio 1740
In 16, pp. 48. Br. rifatta con carta d'epoca. Estratto dagli Opuscoli scientifici e filologici di Calogera' (tomo XXV). Interessante e curiosa dissertazione in cui l'A., facendo riferimento a testi antichi, tratta del flutto decumano ovvero della decima onda che, quando il mare e' in tempesta, risulta la piu' grande e imponente di tutte le precedenti. Vallotti cerca di spiegare l'origine di un tale fenomeno facendo anche riferimento alla scienza popolare in base alla quale il decimo uovo nato dalla stessa gallina e' il piu' grande degli altri. Infatti ovum decimum maius nascitur scrive Sesto Pompeo. Da cio' deriverebbe il termine 'decumano' utilizzato per indicare per tutto quello che ha una grandezza fuori dall'ordinario.

Vons Geert
Aquarium. Ediz. italiana e inglese
ill., br. Migliaia di persone ogni anno pagano un biglietto di ingresso per assistere alle acrobazie di delfini e altri cetacei, ignari di come sia in realtà la vita di questi poveri animali dotati di un'intelligenza straordinaria. Nessuna vasca, per quanto grande, sarà mai grande quanto il mare e soprattutto può accoglierli rispettando i loro bisogni, che non si limitano allo spazio, ma a tutte quelle necessità a cui ogni essere vivente dovrebbe avere diritto: libertà, interazione e socialità con gli altri, alimentazione sana e completa, rispetto della sua natura. Nessuno dovrebbe essere strappato alla sua famiglia e da una esistenza libera per essere rinchiuso in una vasca di cemento con l'unico scopo di intrattenere gli altri. È proprio questo che Aquarium vuole raccontare, attraverso la narrazione struggente di Geert Vons e le eloquenti illustrazioni di Roger Olmos, unendosi così alla campagna di sensibilizzazione di Sea Shepherd contro gli acquari: per raccontare agli adulti, e soprattutto ai bambini, cosa significa in realtà assistere a uno spettacolo di delfini. Questo volume fa parte della collana realizzata in collaborazione con Sea Shepherd, che, attraverso l'arte e l'illustrazione, ha l'obiettivo di divulgare e sensibilizzare l'opinione pubblica sui misfatti che avvengono ogni giorno ai danni dell'Oceano e delle creature che lo abitano, rivolgendosi a un pubblico di tutte le età. Sea Shepherd è un'organizzazione internazionale senza fini di lucro fondata dal Capitano Paul Watson nel 1977 a Vancouver, in Canada. La sua missione è proteggere e conservare la fauna marina fermando la distruzione dell'habitat naturale e il massacro delle specie selvatiche negli oceani di tutto il mondo. Salvaguardando la delicata biodiversità degli ecosistemi oceanici, l'organizzazione opera per assicurarne la sopravvivenza per le generazioni future. Sea Shepherd pratica la tattica dell'azione diretta per investigare, documentare e, quando è necessario, agire per portare alla luce e impedire le attività illegali in alto mare.

VOSS Isaac
Isaaci Vossi de motu marium et ventorum liber
In 8, pp. (12) + 123 + (1b) con diagrammi n.t. Legatura in cart. di fine XVIII sec. Rarissima ediz. orig. di questo importante trattato sul moto dei mari e dei venti dell'erudito ugonotto olandese Isaac Voss (Leida, 1618-Londra, 1689). A seguito della crescente importanza dei commerci marittimi e delle esplorazioni via mare, cominciarono ad essere studiate le cause delle maree. Voss respinge l'influenza della luna e delle stelle, sostenendo che e' il calore del sole a generare venti, maree e correnti oceaniche. Attribuisce infatti al riscaldamento solare l'aumento del livello del mare nella regione equatoriale con la conseguente formazione di maree e correnti. In maniera corretta sostiene che la circolazione del Nord Atlantico sia in senso orario. Il testo include riferimenti a vari luoghi del Nord e Sud America, fra i quali California, Florida, Virginia. Vossel, nel 1649, si trasferi' a Stoccolma, dove divenne bibliotecario ed insegnante di greco di Cristina di Svezia. Poi ando' in Inghilterra dove rimase fino alla morte. Qui fu canonico dei Windsor. Appassionato collezionista di libri ed egli stesso autore di opere di svariato genere (letteratura classica, geografia, cronologia biblica), lascio' alla morte una fra le piu' grandi biblioteche private del mondo. Sotheram, 5133.
