réf. 18581Used; Like New/Used; Like New. Striking original vintage sepia toned gelatin photograph of the important dancer ca. 1912. Stamped "ADOLPH BOLM / 'THAMAR' / SERGE de DIAGHILEFF'S BALLET RUSSE" on the verso in violet ink. Right edge trimmed irregularly small loss to upper left corner light spotting else in fine condition. 5.2 x 8 inches 13.2 x 20.3 cm An early associate of Anna Pavlova Adolphe Bolm later was a major figure in Diaghilev's Ballet Russes. An injury sustained during this US tour lead him to leave the company and remain in the US where he went on to organize "Ballet Intime" and collaborate with the New York Metropolitan Opera. He is shown in the present image in the 1912 Ballets Russes production of "Thamar" in a costume by Leon Bakst. In the ballet with music by Balakirev and choreography by Michel Fokine the subject of the life of Thamar Queen of Georgia from 1184 to 1213 was transformed in the spirit of nineteenth-century Romanticism becoming a symbol of nationalist pride in the face of growing Russian cultural dominance in the Caucasus. Russian poet Mikhail Lermontov fictionalized Thamar's history within his interpretation of a Georgian legend of a malevolent seductress in his 1841 poem Tamara and it was this version along with Balakirev's symphonic poem Tamara that inspired Bakst and Fokine for the Ballets Russes production. Bakst's looming set dramatized Thamar's isolated court in her castle in the treacherous Terek River and provided a stark background for his sumptuous and richly detailed costumes for the queen her courtiers guards and suitors. The men's costumes are based on the traditional Caucasian cherkeska Circassian coat or kaftan with beshmet underdress. German born photographer E. O. Hoppé moved to London in 1902 at the age of 24 to work for the Deutsche Bank. He was elected member of the Royal Photographic Society in 1903 and became one of the most important portrait and documentary photographers of his time. E. O. Hoppé spent most of his life in England or travelling the rest of the world on assignments. The present photograph was published as a gravure in Hoppé's 1913 Fine Art Society London volume "Studies from the Russian Ballet" the photographer's first major publication. At a time when ballet was highly popular he photographed most of the leading members of Serge Diaghilev's Russian Ballet in London and the present image of Bolm is one of his most celebrated images. unknown books

Description: "Here is Hans Hoppe's first treatise in English - actually his first book in English - and the one that put him on the map as a social thinker and economist to watch. He argued that there are only two possible archetypes in economic affairs: socialism and capitalism. All systems are combinations of those two types. The capitalist model he defines as pure protection of private property free association and exchange - no exceptions. All deviations from that ideal are species of socialism with public ownership and interference with trade." -- with a bonus offer-- . 2007. Institute paperback

Description: "This sweeping book is a systematic treatment of the historic transformation of the West from limited monarchy to unlimited democracy. Revisionist in nature it reaches the conclusion that monarchy with all its failings is a lesser evil than mass democracy but outlines deficiencies in both as systems of guarding liberty. By focusing on this transformation from private to public government the author is able to interpret many historical phenomena such as rising levels of crime degeneration of standards of conduct and morality the decline in security and freedom and the growth of the mega-state.

Description: "A definitive defense of the methodological foundations of Austrian economics. Hoppe sets the praxeological view economics as a purely deductive science against positivism while taking the critics of the Austrian approach head on. Hans-Hermann Hoppe rests his argument on the Kantian idea of the 'synthetic apriori' proposition thereby expanding an aim of Mises's in the methodology section of Human Action. Hoppe is the Austrian School's most prominent methodologist and here he is in top form. He combines a rigorous scientific explanation with fantastic passion and rhetoric. These lectures astonished students at the Mises University when they were first delivered. They were later turned into this monograph which has been a staple of Austrian pedagogy ever since. The volume includes: • Preface by Llewellyn H. Rockwell Jr. • I. Praxeology and Economic Science • II. On Praxeology and the Praxeological Foundations of Epistemology.

Description: " 'Do not steal' is an excellent principle of ethics; it is also the first principle of sound economic systems. In our time no one has done more than Hans-Hermann Hoppe to elaborate on the sociological implications of this truth. And this is his great work on the topic. The Austrian tradition is known for offering the most hard-core defense of private property and the most consistent application of that principle of any school of economics. The work of Hoppe--a leading student of Rothbard's whose books have been translated into a dozen languages--has focused heavy philosophical and economic attention on this principle. This book the 2nd expanded edition after a long period in which it has been unavailable collects his most important scholarly essays on the topic." -- with a bonus offer-- . Institute unknown

Description: "This monograph engages the long-running controversy about the origin of the state. Hoppe adopts the theory that extends from a Rothbardian view of the role of elites in society and their monopolistic tendencies. He further maps out a strategy for how the non-state-connected natural elites can turn back the tide of state-connected elites. It is a seminal contribution to the literature with a hopeful roadmap for the future. " -- with a bonus offer-- . Institute paperback

It argues that 'national defense' as provided by government is a myth not unlike the myth of socialism itself. Defense services are more viably privatized and replaced by the market provision of security. " -- with a bonus offer-- . 0945466374 . Institute hardcover

Emil Otto Hoppé was born in Munich in 1878 but lived in London from 1900 until his death in 1972. He was an early and important modernist whose seminal views of the United States in the 1920s rival those of his peers: Paul Strand Edward Steichen Alfred Stieglitz and Walker Evans. His work shows us an America as only an outsider could: brave new and grand in scale but with a hint of trouble brewing in the gaps between its multicultural and economic diversities. Much of Hoppé's work was locked away in English and German archives for the second half of the twentieth century resulting in an eclipse of his reputation. Only recently has his work been reassembled and now we can see his intimate and intelligent view of the world at defining moments in its history. 120 photographs . 2007. 0393065448 . W. W.

In 1888 she took the editorship of The Woman's World at Oscar Wilde's urging. She also wrote the feminist novel The Story of a Modern Woman 1894 which resulted in Dixon's nickname the "New Woman."

Although Hoppé was one of the most important photographic artists of his era and highly celebrated in his time his body of photographic work sat entombed in a London picture library for over thirty years after his death which led to his being forgotten in the latter half of the twentieth century. Curator Graham Howe retrieved Hoppé's work from the picture library in 1994 and merged it with the Hoppé family archive of photographs to make it available to the public. Verlag Ullstein hardcover
