K9SEABNZ7Y5VParis 1708. 12mo. widow of François Muguet Contemporary mottled calf richly gold-tooled spine with red title-label marbled endpapers red edges. 24 485 4 3 blank pp. First edition of the second French translation of a history of the conquest of Spain by the Moors detailing events from 712 to 761 CE a description of Spain during the same period and a biography of Almanzor ca. 938-1002 the Islamic ruler of the Iberian Peninsula at that time. "This was a false chronicle halfway between a history and a novel of chivalry supposedly translated from an Arabic manuscript by a fictitious historian called Tarif Abentarique that Luna had found in El Escorial" García-Arenal & Mediano. In the account first published in 1592 the Iberian Peninsula is saved by the Arab newcomers from a state of evil and corruption under the Visigoth rulers. Luna's account is a defence of Arab culture in Spain independently of the religion of Islam and particularly defending the Arabic language. "His writings attempt to reimagine the origins and history of Christianity in the Peninsula such that its inhabitants of Arab origin may be seen as "natural" or "native" .; therefore they cannot be expelled as alien invaders . but rather and above all may aspire to honors and privileges" García-Arenal & Mediano.Miguel de Luna ca. 1550-1615 was a Spanish physician of Arabic descent who also published a treatise on bathing. Known for his knowledge of Arabic he worked as a translator for King Philip II of Spain and the Spanish Inquisition.With owner's inscriptions on the back of the first fly-leaf and the title-page.

1968ref. 1505401968. Original album of this iconic work boldly signed by legendary musician Pete Townshend on the front panel. In very good condition. Record is included. Magic Bus: The Who on Tour is a 1968 compilation album by the British rock band The Who released exclusively in the United States by Decca Records. Despite the title’s implication of a live performance the album does not feature concert recordings; rather it assembles previously released studio tracks from earlier albums and singles such as “Run Run Run” “Doctor Doctor” and the hit single “Magic Bus.” Issued to capitalize on the commercial momentum generated by the success of that single the compilation served as a marketing strategy to sustain The Who’s growing popularity in the American market. While not considered part of the band’s core discography by the members themselves Magic Bus: The Who on Tour remains an interesting artifact of late-1960s rock culture and the record industry’s efforts to package and promote British Invasion artists to a transatlantic audience. unknown

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 168 pp. ; 8 illus. 3 in color. -- with a bonus offer--; Henry Darger 1892–1973 was a hospital janitor and an immensely productive artist and writer. In the first decades of adulthood he wrote a 15145-page fictional epic In the Realms of the Unreal. He spent much of the rest of his long life illustrating it in astonishing drawings and watercolors. In Darger's unfolding saga pastoral utopias are repeatedly savaged by extreme violence directed at children particularly girls. Given his disturbing subject matter and the extreme solitude he maintained throughout his life critics have characterized Darger as eccentric deranged and even dangerous as an outsider artist compelled to create a fantasy universe. Contesting such pathologizing interpretations Michael Moon looks to Darger's resources to the narratives and materials that inspired him and often found their way into his writing drawings and paintings. Moon finds an artist who reveled in the burgeoning popular culture of the early twentieth century in its newspaper comic strips pulp fiction illustrated children's books and mass-produced religious art. Moon contends that Darger's work deserves and rewards comparison with that of contemporaries of his such as the "pulp historians" H. P. Lovecraft and Robert Howard the Oz chronicler L. Frank Baum and the newspaper cartoonist Bud Fisher. . 2012. 0822351420 . Duke University Press Books hardcover
