Castellina Luciana
Siberiana
ill., br. Sulla linea ferroviaria più lunga del mondo, che da Mosca arriva al Mar del Giappone, un gruppo di scrittori e giornalisti italiani attraversa la Russia asiatica. In occasione della Fiera del libro di Mosca, la delegazione viene accompagnata attraverso i profondi cambiamenti della Russia, dal centro alle periferie dell'impero, cinque fusi orari e seimila chilometri da Mosca. La convivenza nei vagoni della Transiberiana, affacciati per centinaia di chilometri sui boschi di betulle, trasforma presto gli ospiti in una brigata allegra che colora il viaggio dei toni di un'inattesa gita scolastica. La cronaca di Luciana Castellina ha la ricchezza di uno scavo archeologico - e come quello riserva molte sorprese - attraverso i diversi strati che l'aspra terra siberiana rivela allo sguardo acuto della scrittrice: all'esplorazione di un presente aperto e contraddittorio si sovrappongono la memoria personale di una testimone appassionata e la storia di popoli, avvenimenti e personaggi scoperti tra le pieghe del passato. Al ritorno, restano alla viaggiatrice un agrodolce "mal di Russia" e il "rovello che ti lascia una società difficile da capire. E infatti, poi, non si smette di cercare".

"A Petersbourg" i.e. Yverdon Switzerland: s.n. 1769. 286 pp. 12mo. 6" x 4". Early quarter vellum over marbled boards untrimmed edges a few unopenened signatures. Light soiling corners lightly bumped and worn. Moderate toning to interior somewhat heavier in places some leaves have light foxing a few have light dampstaining to margins internally clean. Ex-library with a small inkstamp to title page. A handsome copy. $1000. Reissue of the first edition in French published by the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences for private distribution in 1769. This important text also known as the Nakaz or Instruction is a statement of legal principles written by Catherine II from 1764 and 1766. Permeated with the ideas of the French Enlightenment and copied mostly from the work of Voltaire Montesquieu and Beccaria it was compiled as a guide for the All-Russia Legislative Commission convened by the Empress in 1767 to create a new code to replace the 1649 Muscovite Code. Revised in consultation with Beccaria Frederick the Great and Voltaire the Instruction proclaimed the equality of all men before the law and disapproved of death penalty and torture. Unfortunately her proposed code was never completed. Catherine's manuscript was written in French and she later produced a Russian translation. Editions in German and Russian were published in Moscow in 1767. The book was initially banned in France because it was too liberal which is why the first French-language edition was produced in Switzerland with a false imprint. French and Latin editions were eventually published in 1770.

Berlin und Stettin: bey Friedrich Nicolai 1788. Octavo 15.5 Ã 9.2 cm. Contemporary half calf; spine richly gilt and with green title lable; edges red; XVI 347 pp. Frontis engraving by E. Henne. Bookplate of Martin E. Winkler to front pastedown. Boards very lightly rubbed; tiny ink shelfmark to first leaf; a few small smudges but overall a very good copy. First collected edition and the first edition printed in Germany of these three anti-Masonic plays by Catherine the Great which were first staged in Russia in 1786 at the Hermitage Theater in St. Petersburg. At the same time they were published in German translation by Christian Gottlieb Arndt 1743-1829 by at least two Russian publishers evidently to great acclaim. Catherine's plays were in particular a reaction to the arrival of Alessandro Cagliostro 1743-1795 in St. Petersburg where he sought to spread word of his system of "Egyptian Freemasonry" but was exposed and ridiculed. The publisher the German writer critic and bookseller Christoph Friedrich Nicolai 1733-1811 was one of the key representatives of the Berlin Enlightenment. His lengthy preface praises Catherine's wisdom and reaffirms the need for ridiculing occultism and superstition of all forms in this "century of philosophy." Curiously he also mentions that the Russian editions of Catherine's plays earned their publishers over twenty thousand rubles. Cat. Russica C344. From the collection of the German historian and icon collector Martin E. Winkler 1893-1982. KVK and OCLC locate no copies in North America only microform. hardcover books
