1950réf. 82604Santiago: Imprenta Juarez 1950. Clandestine first Chilean edition of Neruda's stunning epic poem published underground by the Communist party in Chile under a false imprint one month after the true first edition published in Mexico from a different manuscript. Quarto bound into contemporary red linen boards with parts of original printed wrappers serving as titles to the front panel and spine. Copyright leaf mounted to front pastedown bearing the false imprint "Imprenta Juarez Reforma 75 Ciudad de Mexico D.F." half tone portraits of Neruda tipped in at front and back. Inscribed by Neruda on the title page "Al camarada Americo Pablo Neruda." The recipient Americo Zorilla was a close friend of Neruda's and editor of the Chilean Communist daily newspaper El Siglo. Zorilla facilitated the clandestine publication of five thousand copies of Neruda's Canto General in Chile published under a false imprint and based on a manuscript Neruda had left behind before he went into hiding with the banning of the Communist Party under the Ley de Defensa Permanente de la Democracia in 1948. Neruda had officially joined the Communist Party of Chile in 1945 and served as campaign manager for the radical party's presidential candidate Gabriel Gonzalez Videal in 1946. Once in office Gonzalez Videla turned against the Communist Party and Neruda was forced into hiding and later exile in Buenos Aires to avoid arrest. An exceptional association. "Canto General" "General Song" consists of 15 sections 231 poems and more than 15000 lines. It is the stunning epic of an entire continent and its people. The Canto speaks of the destiny of Latin American peoples and the life of the poet himself. Without question this is one of the most important and powerful long poems written in the century. "Neruda was a kind of King Midas. Everything he touched turned to poetry" says Gabriel García Márquez who also considers the Chilean Nobel laureate "the greatest poet of the twentieth century in any language."

See also Livia Rothkirchen The Jews of Bohemia and Moravia p. 58: "A new series of Czech anti-semitic pamphlets was issued by Jaroslav Slavata entitled Tracts of Young Czechoslovakia. Slavata's own contribution. published in 1937 had a new approach to offer arguing that the so-called Czech-Jew was a 'double renegade: from Judaism to Germandom and from Germandom to Czechdom.' Anti-Semitism according to Slavata can exist only on a racial basis; it has no meaning otherwise." A particularly vile manifestation of Czech anti-semitism published shortly before the Munich Pact and the annexation of Germany in 1938 followed by the stablishment of the Protectorate during the war years. Second edition of Slavata's pamphlet not shortened by censors. Both are rare.
