1968Best.-Nr. 1520Poster printed recto and verso with texts and images in red and black inks on white commercial stock. Ca. 14 x 20 in. Very good. Loose as issued. 1520 An unrecorded and gorgeous work by The Berkeley Commune in affinity with the International Werewolf Conspiracy and Up Against the Wall Motherfucker identified for us by UAWMF founder Ben Morea as a co-publication with New York chapters of the secretive network of radicals. Strike Anywhere calls for immediate unified militant action to take control of the America's urban centers: "if there is going to be any student-worker alliance then it will be formed as clearly seen in france not in the factories but on the streets or not at all. if poor whites & middleclass hippies are going to come together as in chicago berkeley & NY it will be in the streets. if there is going to be a true working alliance with blacks then it will come from the common struggle in the streets. the streets are where we will confront the man & where the struggle will become clear - theoretically as well as tactically. theory in not separate from life/ we need space to create the existence we want to live & in the streets we learn the man isn't going to give up space - because the existence of an alternate life is a threat to his piglife." books

1803Best.-Nr. 333Octavo 388 2 ads pp. 200 x 121 mm. Contemporary mottled sheep rebacked to style gilt spine with burgundy morocco label. Some light foxing & browning to text due to paper quality. Old ink signature on front free endpaper marginal chip in a preliminary blank. Overall an unusually nice attractive copy now Housed in a custom clamshell box with a red leather label. First American edition originally published in the UK in 1732. Berkeley 1685-1753 wrote the Alciphron during the years 1729 to 1731 while relaxing in Newport Rhode Island where he was awaiting funds which never came for his projected college in the Bermudas. This this is the first major philosophical work to be written in America though published in London first. The book attracted more attention than any of his previous works. The dialogues it contains constitute a defense of Christianity from the point of view of an Anglican divine. Alciphron is regarded as an outstanding example of English literature among works on philosophy. It is described on the title-page as an Apology for the Christian Religion against those who are called Free-Thinkers and the Dialogues defend revealed religion against the current beliefs of the Deists. Luce places Alciphron with Joseph Butler s Analogy 1736 as the only comparable book on Christian apologetics in the eighteenth century Keynes p. 37 Sidney's Press, for Increase Cooke & Co. hardcover

Best.-Nr. 97942A Londres et se trouve à Paris chez Maradan 1789. 8vo. 1 folding map in frontispiece. 3 leaves. 443 pages. 2 leaves. 6 folding plates. Half-calf flat spine contemporary binding. First Edition of the first French translation of this interesting work situated at the crossroads of enlightment literature travel accounts and feminism. Abandoned by her husband with whom she had had 7 children Lady Craven asked for a divorce and left England to travel. The account of her journey published in London in 1789 was written in English under the form of letters addressed to the Margrave of Anspach - her future husband. She describes her travels through France Italy Russia and Crimea to Constantinople and back to England through Bulgaria Romania and Austria. This edition published by Maradan with the supposed address of London seems to have been published without authorization a few months before the authorized edition which was translated by the bookseller and published at his own shop by official permission. This curious example of editorial piracy demonstrates how successful the work became when issued in England. Folding map of Crimea placed in front of the title-page and 6 large folding plates printed on strong paper. Nice copy with the engraved exlibris of Louis Montandon.
