(ART: EDUCATION) ROSSI-DIEHL, Conrad [artist/author)
Large important manuscript archive of essays presentations class notes book and lesson plan drafts and illustrations by the artist-educator Conrad Rossi-Diehl 1842-1933.
N.p.: N.p. 1880-1925. This impressive and important archive consists of over 1500 manuscript pages and more than 850 hand-drawn illustrations by Rossi-Diehl between the 1880s and 1925. Included are complete manuscripts drafts of manuscripts lesson plans and notes designs teachers’ aids and miscellaneous papers relating to art education especially what Rossi-Diehl called Form – Language along with geometric designs the art of Nature for instance the Acanthus leaf and other rather esoteric art-related subjects. Rossi-Diehl often quotes Goethe and other philosophers and cites biblical references as he attempts to explain his concept of art and its meaningfulness to mankind and his belief that Nature is art’s pure form. Also included in the collection are four writings by Rossi-Diehl regarding social issues war and politics and two interesting “letters†addressed to Samuel L. Clemens and the director of the Leopold Schepp Foundation both listed below under Miscellaneous. Contents;Conrad Rossi-Diehl 1842-1933 was born in Bavaria but came to the United States as a young boy with his parents in 1848 where the family settled in Philadelphia. His artistic talents were recognized early and resulted in his studying art in Germany and Paris where he concentrated on fresco painting and elements of design. Returning to the United States around 1868 Rossi-Diehl taught at the Chicago Academy of Design and later at the St. Louis Art School. From 1879 to 1885 he taught art at the Missouri State University. He relocated to New York in 1886 where he taught at the Hebrew Technical Institute and perfected his course in freehand work. He and John Ward Stimson established the Artist Artisan Institute New-York Institute for Artist-Artisans where Rossi-Diehl directed the drawing and design classes and taught craft as an artform. He was a strong believer in the notion that manufactured products should contain an artistic nature. He prepared drafts for numerous books manuals and articles on design ornament and anatomy for artists and how to teach art. However no copies of his published work were located. Perhaps they were intended to be used at the various institutions where he taught. He also found time to obtain two patents on devices for teaching drawing. His own artwork seemed to be focused on allegorical and literary subjects such as scenes from Shakespeare. See the on-line article on Rossi-Diehl by the Graphic Arts Collection of Princeton and a biography under his name on WorthPoint.The illustrations included in the collection were drawn or cut-out for illustrating Rossi-Diehl’s various drafts of art education texts. They consist primarily of designs floral and geometric diagrams and charts. Several sketches are also included.Incidentally the only records for Conrad Rossi-Deihl to be found on OCLC are 18 original works of art. Sadly this means that all of his real contributions to art and art history and education were lost to history until this archive reared its interesting head. Perhaps there are publishable manuscripts among all of the many to be found in this archive but at the very least this archive would provide students a much clearer picture of art education and thought in the 19th century. The following is a brief listing of the various manuscripts in the Rossi-Diehl collection being offered here.ART & ART EDUCATIONAdvisement Obsolete Dic. Seven-page manuscript relating in part to “the only teachable Form-System thus far known… Geometry or that part of the Science of Learning called Mathematics…†Written on 7 x 9 inch lined paper.Art – Its Mission and its Missionaries. Twenty-seven 27 page manuscript written in ink on 5 x 8 inch pager tied together with string through two punched holes on the left side. The manuscripts ends abruptly in mid-sentence at the end of page 27. Rossi-Diehl begins this essay “The first Art – Effort was made by man to satisfy an innate demand which the conscious mind sums up in the sense of the Beautiful. The Beautiful may be defined as the ever-recurring manifestation of that inscrutable law ‘the eternal fitness of things’ or Harmony.â€Art – Industry and Manual Training. Eight-page manuscript written on 7 x 9 inch paper tied together with string. “Art – Industry is either a misleading denomination or it is an entirely meaningless compound term… Manual Training is the natural concomitant of Art – Education where discipine in the Acquirement of Skill must go hand in hand with firm grounding in Art – Knowledge.â€Art Exercises w/Drawings. Two separate multi-page art exercises with geometric drawings. totaling 15 8 pp twenty-three 23 pages.Design or Form Composition. Thirty-two 32 page manuscript including illustrations. Text written in ink on 5.5 x 9 inch paper. The manuscript starts out “All the forms of the Universe known to man enter into Design: sun moon and star; cloud wave and cristal sic; leaf flower and fruit; fish fowl and beast; and last – but not least – the human form divine. All these subjects must be studied from nature – not from Text-Books; unless this be done in order to learn what man has recorded about them. The Text-Book must be a reliable guide to the student for the study of nature… A Design is an arrangement of Forms; or of Colors; or of both Forms and Colors. It is made to be executed in hard substances such as wood stone metal &c; in pliable materials such as leather linen silk &c; or to be applied to a fabric or a surface for its embellishment.â€Divine Art as Reflected by Human Art; or Universal Form – Utterance and Human Languages Contrasted / An Appeal to the American People on behalf of their Material and Educational Interests. One-hundred-twenty-six 126 page manuscript written in Rossi-Diehl’s hand but with “By Philo Rackstone… 1911†on a cover board. We find no reference to a Philo Rackstone so this may be a non de plume Written on 7 x 9 inch paper stock.Elementary Course in the Art of Perspective – Drawing or Space – Construction without the use of Vanishing – Points. One hundred 100 page manuscript including over 30 pages with illustrations signed by Conrad Rossi-Diehl and datelined Hoboken N.J. August 8 1903.

Rossi-Diehl states “It is the design of this work to formulate and clearly to define a system by which the Language of Form may be made comprehensible to the mind of the child so that it may learn to interpret Nature and Art for itself and thereby attain to the power of consciously performing tasks till now unconscious by performed by many who labor in the domains of Industry and Art.†Includes four additional pages pp 47-50 that differ slightly from those same pages in the draft.Illustrated Design Booklet. Twenty-four pages measuring 12 x 8.75 inches of which 13 have design illustrations laid down. The pages are numbered 1 through 24.

The Greatest of Social Evils Whose Clear Unfolding Implies its Own Remedy. Twenty-three 23 page manuscript written on 7 x 9 inch sheets of paper held together with string. The essay starts out “Self-constituted authority to Rule or Ruin based upon arbitrary standards of valuation and where hereditary nobility or titular sublimated respectability primarily rest with the power to destroy life and property and a total disregard for all that is sacred is at the bottom of all Social affliction.†The Lay of the Land. Two-page manuscript incomplete written in ink on both sides of a single 8 x 9.75 inch sheet. It begins “In the present hour of dire need where after the most fiendish atrocious and devastating war that has ever been waged by Man’s inhumanity to Man: on land and under the soil on the waters and in their depths – and even in the very air we breathe; - and where Treachery Fraud and utter Irresponsibility have fairly run riot…â€Untitled re Critical of John D. Rockefeller. Written in pencil on both sides of a 6.25 x 26 inch sample ballot for the 1916 Democratic Primary Ticket for the Borough of Glen Ridge N.J.MISCELLANYPartial Letter Addressed to the American humorist “Mr. Samuel L. Clemens†the undated “letter†consists of two handwritten pages on 8 x 12.5 inch lined paper of content that seemingly end prior to completion without any closing salutation or signature. It appears that it may never have been meant as a real letter but only Rossi-Diehl’s attempt at satire. The text refers to a youthful Stephen Crane; woman’s wile; rich men who with money made on the backs of others become benefactors; reference to “Innocents at Homeâ€; and other rather scathing remarks. The second page ends with the following “To throw our lady into a conniption fit one needs but to mention a broom a wash-dish or tub and a clothes-line; all of which in her buxom days she handledâ€. Letter to Philip Ritter Leopold Schepp Foundation Long handwritten letter written on both sides of thin paper pasted together to form an 8 x 18.5 inch single sheet addressed to “Mr. Philip Ritter Director of the Leopold Schepp Foundation 185 Madison Av. New York City†datelined “42 Hawthorne Av. Glen Ridge N.J. July 30 1925†and signed “Most Cordial Yours Conrad Rossi-Diehlâ€. The letter is in response to a newspaper article announcing that Schepp the uneducated son of German immigrants who became the “Coconut King†and one of the wealthiest men in New York City had just created a multi-million-dollar foundation to assist young students with their education based in part on the students’ life goals to benefit mankind. Rossi-Diehl’s response is one based on his own interest in education philosophy religious beliefs and art-logic.Overall the archive is in VG to VG condition. N.p. paperback

(BINDINGS - PUBLISHER'S BOARDS). (EDUCATION). SPURZHEIM, JOHANN GASPAR
A VIEW OF THE ELEMENTARY PRINCIPLES OF EDUCATION FOUNDED ON THE STUDY OF THE NATURE OF MAN
Edinburgh: Printed for Archibald Constable & Co.; London: Hurst Robinson & Co 1821. FIRST EDITION. 192 x 103 mm. 7 1/2 x 4 1/2". xv 1 lvii 1 59-360 pp. <br/> ORIGINAL PUBLISHER'S PAPER BOARDS paper label on spine edges untrimmed. Owner's signature of Robert Chichester dated 1827 on front pastedown. Text a shade less than bright because of inferior paper stock slight wear to the binding but AS FINE A COPY IN THE ORIGINAL BOARDS AS ONE COULD HOPE TO FIND the covers amazingly clean and smooth and with only the most minor faults internally.<br/> <br/> In its original remarkably well-preserved publisher's boards this work on education captures the spirit of reform abundant in the early 19th century including its warts. Although Spurzheim 1776-1832 was better known as an exponent of phrenology and an authority on mental illness than as an educational theorist his "View of the Elementary Principles of Education" is an important work that for the most part is sensible and progressive. Especially significant are his assertion that all influences from birth onward contribute to the physical and mental development of the child and the inference he draws from this that in addition to the conventional education of the intellect an optimal upbringing must include attention to such things as clean air proper diet and suitable exercise. He favors public education over private instruction because children will benefit by meeting a variety of people with "different manners of feeling and thinking." Spurzheim shows himself to be generally tolerant and forward thinking as he maintains that good education can improve almost anybody it would certainly reduce the number of criminals. But he sometimes disappoints as in his belief that many limitations are hereditary and must be taken into account in designing the most fitting education for an individual. He states for example that the poor ought to be prevented from reproducing as if poverty were in the genes. And in answering the claims of Mary Wollstonecraft's "Vindication of the Rights of Women" he says "I cannot perceive any arrangement of nature that can lead me to expect that women will cease to be considered as subordinate to men. Let them endeavor if they please to acquire the same degree of talent but till they have acquired it let them cherish order and exercise the virtues of their actual condition in society rather than attempt to rise into a sphere for which they are not at present fitted." Also appended here is a section on the treatment and reform of criminals in which the author calls for a better understanding of the causes of crime for the requiring of prisoners to undertake useful work and courses of instruction while in prison and for the study of the prison system instituted by William Penn at Philadelphia. While the sometimes disheartening contents approach a certain fascination it's the binding here that competes for--and perhaps wins--our attention. That its fragile construction could hold up so beautifully through two centuries of use is extraordinary. Printed for Arch[ibal]d Constable & Co.; London: Hurst, Robinson & Co unknown

(BINDINGS - SCHOOLROOM BURLAP, 18TH CENTURY). (EDUCATION). GREENWOOD, JAMES
THE LONDON VOCABULARY ENGLISH AND LATIN: PUT INTO A NEW METHOD PROPER TO ACQUAINT THE LEARNER WITH THINGS AS WELL AS PURE LATIN WORDS. ADORNED WITH TWENTY-SIX PICTURES. FOR THE USE OF SCHOOLS
London: Printed for T. Longman B. Law F. & C. Rivington R. Baldwin G. & T. Wilkie and J. Walker 1797. 21st Edition. 150 x 93 mm. 5 7/8 x 3 5/8". viii 123 1 ads pp. <br/> Contemporary brown burlap flat spine. With allegorical vignette on title page and 25 half-page woodcuts illustrating items from the vocabulary lists. Pastedowns with traces of book label removal. ◆Spine slightly cocked short split to cloth on rear joint a little fraying at ends of spine but the insubstantial binding surprisingly solid. Two small stains to each pastedown where labels removed title page lightly browned leaves a shade less than bright due to paper quality other minor imperfections but an excellent copy internally clean and fresh with comfortable margins. All in all remarkably well preserved.<br/> <br/> First issued around 1711 this is the best-selling work of James Greenwood 1683-1737 an influential grammarian and a proponent of women's education. Arranged into 33 chapters the book divides vocabulary lists by topic beginning with "things" and proceeding through minerals plants animals humans and diseases to everyday items affairs of church and state the law the military and finally to the various parts of speech from verbs to conjunctions. Widely used the work was revised and reprinted until at least 1828. At about the time this work was originally issued Greenwood had founded a school in Essex where he accepted girls as well as boys as pupils; he was later recruited to serve as assistant headmaster at St. Paul's School in London. This volume is of particular interest because of its rarely seen utilitarian period binding. We would have expected it to have been worn to shreds long ago but against the odds it has withstood hard use by young pupils remarkably well and it gives us a glimpse of an important element of the English schoolroom at the turn of the 19th century.

THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO. (Reporter's Second Reader).
n.p. (18 leaves). Illustrated with three maps. Lithograph throughout. Stamped ownership of M. F. Lobo on title page with his comments on first fly leaf "Creasy's name omitted from scroll". 170mm. Original decorated printed wraps. Moses Finzi Lobo was born in Bridgetown, Barbados, West Indies (1834). He came to Philadelphia about 1845, and lived there until his death (1904). He was a respected journalist, scholar, author, and leader in community affairs. His skill and knowledge of shorthand was exceptional, and he was frequently called upon to record scientific addresses, and other important events. He served as private secretary to the Superintendent of the Mint, before resigning that post to engage in literary work. We feel fortunate to be able to present Short-Hand books owned by him.

(DUPANLOUP Felix Antoine Philibert, évêque d'Orléans)
Lettre a m. Rattazzi, présidente deu Conseil des Ministres du roi d'Italie, sur les entreprises de Garibaldi, par m.gr l'Évêque d'Orléans.
Segue: Stesso Aut. La liberté de l'enseignement supérieur. Stessidati tip., 1868.<BR>2 op. in 1 vol. in-8°, pp.200; 46-2 bb., mz. pelle coeva, con nerv. e tit. oro al dorso. Fioriture. La "Lettre a m. Rattazzi", datata 15 set.1867, è un polemico scritto del Dapanloup, stranuo difensore del potere temporale del papa che si firmava "Felix, évêque d'Orléans", contro il presidente del Consiglio, che nel 1862 era successo al Ricasoli e dopo aver fermato Garibaldi sull'Aspromonte, nel 1862, aveva firmato nel 1864 la "Convention du 15 septembre 1864, dans laquelle l'Italie a promis à la France le maintien de la souverainetè du pape"(p.5). La letterea è un monito al Rattazzi, che fingeva di non sapere che Garibaldi arruolava volontari in Toscana, per organizzare l'ennesimo tentativo di arrivare a Roma. Come è noto il tentativo fallì: il 3 nov.1867 le truppe francesi sconfissero Garibaldi a Mentana e Rattazzi fu costretto a dimettersi.

(EDUCATION - 17TH CENTURY ENGLAND). POOLE, MATTHEW
A MODEL FOR THE MAINTAINING OF STUDENTS OF CHOICE ABILITIES AT THE UNIVERSITY AND PRINCIPALLY IN ORDER TO THE MINISTRY
s.l.: s.n. Printed Anno Domini 1658. FIRST EDITION. 190 x 135 mm. 7 1/2 x 5 3/8". 3 p.l. 14 pp. complete. <br/> 20th century vellum-backed marbled boards flat spine with vertical titling. Front pastedown with bookplate of the Fox Pointe Collection. Wing P-2842B; ESTC R207754. ◆Text lightly washed and pressed but still crisp faint foxing to lower edge of title page otherwise a fine fresh copy in an unworn binding.<br/> <br/> Written by an opinionated English cleric this is an extraordinarily rare pamphlet proposing an unusual fund to support young 17th century scholars. According to DNB the scheme outlined in the present work was meant "to support the university studies of young men of promise seeking entry into the ministry." The plan "was approved by John Worthington and Anthony Tuckney and had the support also of John Arrowsmith DD Ralph Cudworth William Dillingham DD and Benjamin Whichcote. The fund raised about £900 and it appears that William Sherlock afterwards dean of St Paul's received assistance from this fund during his studies at Peterhouse Cambridge until 1660 when he graduated BA. Those entrusted with administering the fund sent Poole regular reports on students interviewed and the ratings they had received in philosophy logic and languages. The scheme was abandoned at the Restoration." Poole 1624 - 79 was the author of a number of controversialist pamphlets on subjects ranging from Unitarianism to preaching by lay persons before undertaking his major work: a synthesis of critical biblical commentaries "Synopsis criticorum aliorumque sacrae scripturae interpretum." This is one of his scarcest writings: ESTC lists seven copies two in North America while ABPC and RBH record just two copies at auction. s.n. Printed Anno Domini unknown

(EDUCATION). SPURZHEIM, JOHANN CHRISTOPH
A VIEW OF THE ELEMENTARY PRINCIPLES OF EDUCATION FOUNDED ON THE STUDY OF THE NATURE OF MAN
Boston: Marsh Capen and Lyon 1832. First American Edition. 188 x 120 mm. 7 3/8 x 4 3/4". xii 318 pp. <br/> Original tan cloth smooth spine with printed paper label. Front pastedown with bookplate of John A. Seaverns; front free endpaper with ownership signature of John Stevens dated 31 January 1833. Cloth somewhat faded slight fraying at tail of upper joint label a bit scuffed contents with occasional small stains one marginal tear and browning to a handful of leaves but an extremely well-preserved copy of a fragile book very clean and the condition issues all quite minor.<br/> <br/> In its original publisher's binding and from a major collection this is an excellent copy of the first American printing of an influential work on education. Spurzheim 1776-1832 was better known as an exponent of phrenology and an authority on mental illness than as an educational theorist but his "View of the Elementary Principles of Education" is nevertheless an important work that for the most part is sensible and progressive. Especially significant are his assertion that all influences from birth onward contribute to the physical and mental development of the child and the inference he draws from this that in addition to the conventional education of the intellect an optimal upbringing must include attention to such things as clean air proper diet and suitable exercise. He favors public education over private instruction because children will benefit by meeting a variety of people with "different manners of feeling and thinking." Spurzheim shows himself to be generally tolerant and forward thinking as he maintains that good education can improve almost anybody it would certainly reduce the number of criminals. But he sometimes disappoints as in his belief that many limitations are hereditary and must be taken into account in designing the most fitting education for an individual. He states for example that the poor ought to be prevented from reproducing as if poverty were in the genes. And in answering the claims of Mary Wollstonecraft's "Vindication of the Rights of Women" he says "I cannot perceive any arrangement of nature that can lead me to expect that women will cease to be considered as subordinate to men. Let them endeavor if they please to acquire the same degree of talent but till they have acquired it let them cherish order and exercise the virtues of their actual condition in society rather than attempt to rise into a sphere for which they are not at present fitted." Also appended here is a section on the treatment and reform of criminals in which the author calls for a better understanding of the causes of crime for the requiring of prisoners to undertake useful work and courses of instruction while in prison and for the study of the prison system instituted by William Penn at Philadelphia. This copy is from the library of John A. Seavers a self-described "omnivorous collector" whose interests ran particularly toward equestrian books as well as books and ephemera across genres. Much of his collection now resides at Tufts University. Marsh Capen and Lyon unknown
