1993rif. AUST2544Bregenz, Vorarlberger Autoren-Gesellschaft 1993. 4°. 406 S. m. zahlreichen s/w Abb., OLn., gutes Exemplar.
(ca. 17 x 12 cm). 3 Dokumente. Original-Dokumente mit jeweiligem Deckeltitel. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren, sonst wohlerhalten. Altersentsprechend guter Zustand. Es handelt sich um drei universitäre Dokumente des späteren Künstlers Arno Richter. Ausgegeben wurden sie von den damaligen Vereinigten Staatsschulen für Freie und Angewandte Kunst in Berlin-Charlottenburg, dem Zusammenschluß der Hochschule für die bildenden Künste und der Unterrichtsanstalt des Kunstgewerbe-Museums. Erhalten sind für den Studenten Arno Richter ein Belegbuch (1929), ein Hochschulausweis (1926-1929) sowie eine Hospitanten-Ausweiskarte (1936-1938) mit handschriftlichen Eintragungen. Alle Dokumente tragen die Stempel der jeweiligen politischen Systeme, sowohl vor als auch nach 1933. Das Belegbuch führt 1929 auch einen von Richter belegten Kurs bei Emil Orlik auf, als dessen Schüler Richter sich selbst sah. Aus dem Studenten Arno Richter wurde später ein Kostümbildner, Bühnenbildner und Filmarchitekt. Insbesondere in den späten 1920er und 1930er Jahren war seine Arbeit für Theater und Film von hoher Intensität geprägt bis er im Jahr 1939 emigrierte. So schuf er beispielsweise für die Filme "Der Rebell" (Luis Trenker, 1932) und "SOS Eisberg" (Arnold Fanck, 1933) die Bauten oder für den NS-Staatsfilm "Robert Koch, der Bekämpfer des Todes" (Hans Steinhoff, 1939) die Kostüme.

1854rif. List2315New Orleans 1854. Fine. A lengthy description of life in New Orleans written by Samuel Sumner 1824-1866 the son of Michael and Mary Sumner of Newburyport Massachusetts describing life as an insurance salesman in New Orleans. He talks about his brother Richard Richard Bartlet Sumner 1816-1868. Sumner describes his life in New Orleans and alludes to previous difficulties presumably in his travels from Newburyport and establishing his family in the New Orleans. He talks about the difficulty in establishing business relationships stating "It has been most unfortunate for me & I presume there is not one young man in a hundred that has suffered as much as I have from its causes that I have never been placed in a position suitable to my taste or character that is I have had partners for whom I lost all respect & confidence because they had no respect for themselves & therefore it was impossible to succeed under such circumstances; but now I am in a very respectable position and am constantly thrown among a class of men whose influence is good whom I can respect and between whom there is some congeniality of feeling." He discusses sending his family to a plantation two-hundred miles north of the city where they are doing "tolerably well." An interesting letter overall that gives a detailed account of an emigrant familly from the east in New Orleans during the period. Full transcription follows: New Orleans Augt. 21st 1854 Dear Father & Mother It is a long long time since I availed myself of the opportunity of addressing you but allow me to assure you that it was not for a want of inclination to do so but because I have met with so many misfortunes & reverses in one way and another that I could not spur myself to write in that buoyant & happy spirit I desired & moreover I was aware that you occasionally heard of me through Richard. The changes & vicissitudes of this life have been many during the past few years and more than ever I anticipated to experience during my whole life but I trust it has not been thrown away upon me but has added much to my experience and judgement; however through the kindness and assistance of Richard I have been enabled to get through thus far & now am feeling quite content having forgotten the past with all its troubles & trials and entered upon a new sphere of action with the hope of some day in future to reach the head. I presume you have heard that I am now engaged in the Office of the Home Mutual Ins. Co. which was something of an undertaking for me at the time as I knew nothing of the system they pursued; but it took me but a short time to learn the traces & now I would not yield to anyone in the same line of business for quickness in figures or correctness in calculations tho I am but three months in service. It has been most unfortunate for me & I presume there is not one young man in a hundred that has suffered as much as I have from its causes that I have never been placed in a position suitable to my taste or character that is I have had partners for whom I lost all respect & confidence because they had no respect for themselves & therefore it was impossible to succeed under such circumstances; but now I am in a very respectable position and am constantly thrown among a class of men whose influence is good whom I can respect and between whom there is some congeniality of feeling. My salary is also tolerably fair $2000 to the 1st of Jany after which $2400 which will enable me to get along quite comfortably so you may expect to hear from me more frequently hereafter. Richard is now rich and well. He deserves it for no one ever paid closer attention to his business than he or worked harder to gain it & it certainly must be a great source of gratification to you to know of his success as I know it is to him that it is in his power to lend us aid. I was in hopes to have visited you long ere this but fortune did not smile upon me & therefore I must be content and await the day when good luck will again take me back to my old home the place of my birth the days of my childhood where I have enjoyed so many happy happy scenes many of which are now in my mind's eye; even the old house on Merrill St. & the grassy lot in front with the old pump & the old School house seem but yesterday & then comes the present house the garden the trees the fruit & the old Russell Apple Tree with its overhanging branches in the rear the cow the milking going to pasture the pigeon house & pigeons all all rise before me and often do I wish myself a boy again; but to these scenes I cherish a hope altho vague that I will one of these days return; but ere that time changes may take place that will only render it sad & melancholy; but to this I trust to a higher power & hope that we may all be submissive to will. A few days since I gave Mr. Breaux a friend of mine a letter of introduction to you & I presume he will call upon you during the summer - he visits the north in search of health. In him you will find a real true Southerner & gentleman intelligent & interesting born in this State but educated in Cambridge; he has been a good friend of ours & has taken a great fancy to our little 'Jennie' which is equally returned on her part for I don't believe she would ever forget him. Mr. Breaux can tell you all about us & give you a better description of us than anyone else. I hope you will welcome him & that his short call may prove interesting to all - if Hannah or Abby would like to talk French they will now have a chance - his parents both being French. My Wife & little ones were all tolerably well when last I heard of them - for the past 6 weeks they have been on a visit to the country about 200 miles above the City and will remain until they get tired of plantation life. It is the first time Mary ever visited a plantation & if you could read some of her letters to me you would find them truly interesting & instructive. Mary went up altogether on a/c of the ill health of our little girl who has always been delicate & becomes much reduced as warm weather approaches so much so that we are fearful at times that her constitution will fail her beyond all hope - but Mary writes me now that she thinks the country air is producing a good effect upon her & that they are having fine times. Mary rides horseback from 6 to 10 miles every fair morning before breakfast; the little ones ride the pony nearly all day & after dinner they all take their carriage drive. These amusements together with the calls of friends all tend to pass away the time most pleasantly. Since Richard left we have experienced one of the heaviest losses by fire the City ever felt but the Offices are all sound & you can say to Richard that we settled up all but 2 small losses which the parties have not brot in in 15 days after the fire took place - our loss about $65000 which we paid without going into bank for discount. I will not inflict a longer letter upon you this time but you may expect to hear from me more often than heretofore. If Mary was here she would send much love to you all. Give my love to all & believe me truly your aff. Son Sam. unknown

1983512 pages. "Between 1946 and 1982 more than 180,000 people emigrated from The Netherlands to Canada. That enormous tide peaked in 1952, when almost 21,000 Netherlanders made Canada their home. The movement arose out of a long-occupied country whose citizens considered Canadians their liberators, out of tiny Holland's limited capacity for growth, and out of the uneasy political situation in Europe. The real result of the movement, the lives of the ordinary people who uprooted themselves to immigrate, is the subject of this overwhelming documentation. Told simply and movingly, this is the story of eveyr immigrant's experience, from the decision to leave and the journey itself to the arrival in Canada and the difficulties to be faced." - from dust jacket.

19191st edition. Paperback,lacks original outer wrappers, 8vo, 80 pages. In Finnish. "Tieteellis-kaunokirjallinen julkaisu." (A Scientific-Literary Publication). Includes 10 cartoons and illustrations. The newspaper Sosialisti and its successors, as well as the Ahjo (The Forge) produced at the Work People's College, served as the major forum for ideological discussions. Participants included editors, agitators, organizers and ordinary workers from various locals. Certain American socialist leaders like Eugene V. Debs were often cited and their articles reissued in Finnish-language translations (Auvo Kostiainen, A Dissenting Voice of Finnish Radicals in America: The Formative Years of Sosialisti-Industrialisti in the 1910s in American Studies in Scandinavia, Vol. 23, 1991). Gary A. Kaunonen notes that a host of socialist or labor colleges were springing up in the United States in the early 20th century such as the Peoples College in Fort Scott, Kansas, which was founded in 1915, and the Brookwood Labor College, founded in Katonah, New York, in 1921. A precursor to many of these colleges espousing a proletarian curriculum was the Industrial Workers of the World affiliated Work Peoples College (WPC), founded in 1907 in Smithville, now Duluth, Minnesota. The WPC was a center of proletarian education that based its curriculum specifically on propaganda of the deed ideology, which advocated economic and physical responses to capitalist exploitation in lieu of political mechanisms of change. The school was a bastion of socialist and later specifically anarcho-syndicalist and industrial unionist thought, with many of the professors, such as Leo Laukki, teaching direct action tactics such as the general strike and industrial sabotage. . The WPC housed its own publishing company on the colleges campus in Smithville. This faculty and student-run press printed numerous relevant titles but also a periodical appropriately titled Ahjo (The Forge), which discussed current issues in industrial unionism and official IWW business, while at the same time being a forum for student generated essays, prose, and poetry. The importance of this periodical cannot be understated as a vehicle for increasing literacy efforts at the WPC. What better way to encourage ascending levels of literacy in both reading and writing than to have a place for students to submit and read the fruits of their proletarian education (From the Escuela Moderna to the Escuela Moderna to the Työväen Opisto: Reading, (W)Riting, and Revolution, the 3 Rs of Expanded Proletarian Literacy in Community Literacy Journal, Vol 5 Issue 2, Spring 2011).SUBJECT(S): Socialism -- Periodicals.

So at most there is one holding for this issue in OCLCand quite possible there are no holdings in OCLC for it anywhere.
