‎Prague: Václav Petr 1941. Octavo 24 × 16 cm. Original decorative card wrappers with the publisher's original printed wrap-around band; 120 2 pp. Very good. Wrappers by the painter Karel Černý. First edition of this work by Czech psychoanalyst philosopher art theoretician and writer Bohuslav Brouk one of the first promoters of Freud's work in Czechoslovakia. He was a close friend of Karel Teige and a co-founder of the Czech Surrealist Group in 1934. Considered one of the most original minds of the Czech avant-garde he was also seen as its enfant terrible. Brouk's postscript for Štyrský's "Emily Comes to Me in a Dream" 1933 a defense of erotic literature revealed his great interest in sexual freedom individual creativity and modern artistic tendencies. His research in the early 1930s focused on topics such as masturbation sexology and fetishes and his works were often censored. With a trenchant wit and rhetorical talent he set out to destroy what he saw as everyday myths that make a meaningless existence bearable: ethics work sport and marriage among others. After the war he was an outstanding public critic of communist ideology and fled the country after the 1948 coup. unknown‎

Original blind wrappers with typo-illustrated dust-wrappers; accordeon-bound leaves; 69 pp. With four full-page color lithographs "graphic labyrints" by Zdeněk Sklenǎŕ and numerous pages of typographic compositions by Hlavsa. A very good copy. Bilingual edition with text in Latin and Czech of John Amos Comenius' treatise "Typographeum vivum" "The Living Printing Press" a lengthy metaphorical comparison of his pedagogical approach to the means of producing printed books. The book was published to celebrate the five-hundredth anniversary of the appearance of the first printed book in Bohemia in 1468 The Trojan Chronicles. From the English-language resume: "the great seventeenth-century Czech humanist Jan Amos Komenský . had faith in the grandiose possibilities open to the printed word that can spread life-giving ideas. And finally it is to the second half of the twentieth century that the book owes its graphic design. This is the work of two contemporary Czech artists who have many times already shown themselves to be outstanding masters of book design and illustration -- the graphic designer and typographer Oldřich Hlavsa and the painter graphic artist and illustator Zdeněk Sklenář. It is no coincidence that this bibliophile publication is designed and illustrated in a way that enables the artistic aspects of its typography to create new meanings." Parallel Latin and Czech text with Czech editorial notes and English Russian German and French summaries. Striking large-scale typographic design by Hlavsa incorporating fonts such as Bodoni Times Roman an eighteenth-century Prague specimen Verdi Frutiger's Univers and Menhart's Figural.
