ISAAK BABEL
L'ARMATA A CAVALLO ISAAK BABEL I RACCONTI DI GUERRA DELL'A. E DELLE SUE ATROCITA
DESCRIZIONE: New Compton Ed. Vicenza 1975, br. ed. ill. pp. 152 in 8°. Babel' combatté nella Guerra Civile Russa, lavorò per la ?eka come traduttore per il servizio di controspionaggio, nel Gubkom (comitato regionale del partito bolscevico) di Odessa, nell'unità di requisizione viveri, al Narkompros (Commissariato per l'Istruzione), in un istituto tipografico e fu corrispondente di giornali da San Pietroburgo e Tbilisi. Si sposò con Evgenija Gronfejn il 9 agosto 1919, a Odessa. Nel 1920, nel corso della sanguinosa guerra civile, Babel' fu assegnato, come giornalista, alla prima armata a cavallo del Feldmaresciallo Semën Michajlovi? Budënnyj, essendo così testimone diretto della campagna di Polonia che cercava di portare la rivoluzione comunista fuori dalla Russia. L'Armata Rossa penetrò fin quasi a Varsavia ma fu infine respinta nella battaglia di Varsavia del 1920. Babel' scrisse nell'autobiografia: "Soltanto nel 1923 imparai a esprimere i miei pensieri in modo chiaro e non troppo prolisso. Allora ripresi a scrivere." Diversi racconti che vennero successivamente inclusi in L'armata a cavallo (titolo originale: La cavalleria rossa), vennero pubblicati sulla famosa rivista LEF ("???"), di Majakovskij, nel 1924. L'onesta descrizione di Babel' delle brutalità della guerra, lontana dal romanticismo rivoluzionario, gli procurò alcuni nemici potenti, tra cui Budënnyj, ma l'intervento di Gorkij lo aiutò a salvare il libro, che presto venne tradotto in molte lingue. Indice completo in foto a fine inserzione. CONDIZIONI: Buone, tracce di fox alla cop.. PESO / WEIGHT: 188 gr. without package

IVAN CHERMAYEFF.
Chermayeff. Geismar symbols, logotypes and graphic design from the last five decades.= Chermayeff. Geismar son 50 yilin amblem, logo ve tasarimlari. [Exhibition catalogue].
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 264 p., color ills. Chermayeff. Geismar symbols, logotypes and graphic design from the last five decades.= Chermayeff. Geismar son 50 yilin amblem, logo ve tasarimlari. [Exhibition catalogue]. Considered as one of the most brilliant graphic designers of the 20th century, Ivan Chermayeff has created a number of truly memorable designs with his partner Tom Geismar. Through his unique and exceptional work on the emblem, logo and corporate identity designs of Koç Holding and various other Koç companies, he has made it possible for the names of these institutions, and by extension Turkey, to be acknowledged by the world of design. Since its founding in 1957, Chermayeff & Geismar has pioneered a transformation in the practice of graphic design. Located in New York but working for clients in many countries, especially Turkey, they have pursued a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach across a broad range of projects and disciplines, from the development of scores of famous trademarks to the design of notable museum exhibitions, from hundreds of imaginative posters for cultural events to largescale artworks for distinguished architectural projects. Throughout all these tasks, Chermayeff & Geismar's work has remained consistent, not in style, but in its approach to design. Accepting the Modernist ideal that design is a problem-solving discipline, they have sought to humanize that ideal through humor, artistic invention and an entrepreneurial spirit.

IVAN IVANOVICH SHUVALOV, (1727-1797).
[RUSSIA / PETER THE GREAT] Büyük Petro'nun eyyâm-i hükümetinde Rusya'da cereyan eden ahvâl-i dahiliye ve umûr-i hariciyeye ve husûsiyle nizamât-i mevzua-i cedideye ve oralarda bulunan milel ve akvâm-i muhtelifenin ahkâm ve âdâb ve fünûn ve sanayilerine dair... [i.e. Description of the internal and external historical situation in Russia during the rule of Peter the Great, and the progressions in science, technology and industry].
Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Contemporary non-aesthetic burgundy cloth bdg. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14,5 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 299, [6] p. Fading on cloth, minor repairs on some pages, otherwise a good copy. Lithographed edition. First and only Turkish edition of this uncommon and very scarce early book of the history of Russia under the rule of Peter the Great. This book was published during the Crimean War, which was a military conflict fought from October 1853 to February 1856 in which Russia lost to an alliance of the Ottoman Empire, France, the United Kingdom, and Piedmont-Sardinia. The first four chapters describe the general political and social history of Russia at the time of Peter the Great. The following chapters narrate important events like the new revolution in Sofia, the first diplomatic relations with China in the period and the first agreement between the Russian and Chinese Empires, The Siege of Azov Fortress, the agreement with the Saxony, Peter the Great's travels to Europe, rebuild of St. Petersburg, The Battle of Narva and the Siege of Narva, return of the Great Tsar to Russia from France, commerce in Russia in the period of the Peter the Great's rule, etc. Peter I, most commonly known as Peter the Great, was a monarch of Russia who modernized it and made it a European power. He ruled the Tsardom of Russia from 7 May [O.S. 27 April] 1682 to 1721 and subsequently the Russian Empire until his death in 1725, jointly ruling before 1696 with his elder half-brother, Ivan V. To improve his nation's position on the seas, Peter sought more maritime outlets. His only outlet at the time was the White Sea at Arkhangelsk. The Baltic Sea was at the time controlled by Sweden in the north, while the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea were controlled by the Ottoman Empire and Safavid Empire respectively in the south. Peter attempted to acquire control of the Black Sea, which would require expelling the Tatars from the surrounding areas. As part of an agreement with Poland that ceded Kyiv to Russia, Peter was forced to wage war against the Crimean Khan and against the Khan's overlord, the Ottoman Sultan. Peter's primary objective became the capture of the Ottoman fortress of Azov, near the Don River. In the summer of 1695, Peter organized the Azov campaigns to take the fortress, but his attempts ended in failure. Through a number of successful wars, he captured ports at Azov and the Baltic Sea, laying the groundwork for the Imperial Russian Navy, ending uncontested Swedish supremacy in the Baltic, and beginning the Tsardom's expansion into a much larger empire that became a major European power. He led a cultural revolution that replaced some of the traditionalist and medieval social and political systems with ones that were modern, scientific, Westernised, and based on the Enlightenment. Shuvalov was called the Maecenas of the Russian Enlightenment and the first Russian Minister of Education. Russia's first theatre, university, and Academy of Arts were instituted with his active participation. He was born in Moscow, the only son of Ivan Menshoi Shuvalov, an army captain who died when the boy was ten, and Tatiana Rodionovna. The Shuvalov family fortunes changed drastically in 1741 when Empress Elizaveta Petrovna ascended to the Russian throne with help from Ivan's powerful cousins - Peter Shuvalov and Alexander Shuvalov. The following year, they had the fourteen-year-old Ivan attached to the imperial court as a page. Complete title: "Büyük Petro'nun eyyâm-i hükümetinde Rusya'da cereyân eden ahvâl-i dahiliyye ve umûr-i hâriciyyeye ve husûsiyle nizâmât-i mevzûa-i cecdîdeye ve oralarda bulunan milel ve akvâm-i muhtelifenin ahlâk ve âdâb ve fünûn ve sanâyilerine dair Büyük Petro'nun kizi Elizabete'nin kurenâsindan Sovalef nâm zâtin bazi resâil-i mevsûka ve senedât-i sahîhadan vukûf ve ittilâi hâsil olan ahvâl ve keyfiyâti nakil ve hikâyeye mübâseret olunmustur." Özege 17170.
