1912réf. 5917Havana 1912. Good plus. 196pp. Original printed front wrapper bound into 20th-century faux leather paper boards spine and front board gilt lettered. Contemporary ownership inscription and bookseller's ink stamp on title page. Lower corners of initial and final leaves repaired with tissue. Even tanning occasional foxing heavier to initial leaves. A scarce contemporary account of what the authors term the "Guerra de Razas" also known as the 1912 Cuban War an uprising by parts of the island's Afro-Cuban population demanding equal rights which was brutally extinguished by government forces. The conflict had its roots in racial tensions between Cuba's Hispanic and Black populations after the reestablishment of self-government in 1909. Race-based political parties such as the Partido Independiente de Color had been established in the 1900s to fight for the civil rights of Black Cubans but these groups were outlawed by the predominantly Hispanic government in 1910. The PIC continued to operate however and its leaders Evaristo Esteñoz and Pedro Ivonet agitated for a rebellion that would force the government to reverse the law. When the uprising finally occurred in the eastern provinces of Cuba on May 20 1912 it was met with extreme force with contemporary accounts and eyewitnesses numbering the executed and massacred at anywhere between 2000 and 6000 people including Esteñoz and Ivonet. The authors of the present work present their account from a pro-government perspective but nevertheless make some attempt toward social history and analysis of the causes of conflict. The whole is photographically illustrated with numerous portraits of significant military figures. OCLC locates a small handful of copies in U.S. institutions. unknown

1587réf. 1711300045Francofurti ad Moenum ex officina Ioannis Wecheli 1587. Hardcover. Good. Folio. Title page in red and black Later mottled calf raised bands compartments decorated in gilt leather spine label. Rubbing modern restoration to leather. Contemporary signature to front flyleaf and title. Title page creased and tender. Moderate toning contemporary ink underscoring. Scattered spotting. The Corpus Juris or Iuris Civilis "Body of Civil Law" is a collection of fundamental works in jurisprudence issued from 529 to 534 by order of Justinian I Eastern Roman Emperor. Its influence on common law legal systems has been much smaller although some basic concepts from the Corpus have survived through Norman law – such as the contrast especially in the Institutes between statute and custom. The Corpus continues to have a major influence on public international law. Its four parts thus constitute the foundation documents of the Western legal tradition. In the Renaissance Justinian’s Code was translated into vernacular languages and formed the base for the legal system for the majority of countries up until the 19th century.
