1929réf. 0001973CHICAGO ILLINOIS IL. Good. 1929. On offer is a fascinating original manuscript Depression Era 5 year diary handwritten by a girl named June b. November 6 1909 whose surname is likely either Hluegner or Kandles as she has mention two Grandmothers with those names. June is a sad girl lonely for friendship even while a member of a sorority and it seems her happiness depends on her self image and body weight: 'Went to sorority. They all talk about their fellows. Oh lord! A perfect body!' Her sadness is also reflected in her nostalgia for a few moments of happiness in her past: 'in 1927 two years before this time I was seeing David Filerman. Wonder what he's doing now.' Home life is difficult too: 'Chas and Yi came over after Church. Dad certainly is unscientific. He's right. The world's crazy. Such a tirade of abuse I never heard. Too glad to go to Helen's.' She has one older sister Ruth who is 25 in 1929 and doesn't get along with her. Ruth seems to get all the guys eventually to get married in 1933. June is interested in gardening studies botany and music. Her basic premise is to find love marriage and to lose weight. In these 5 years she achieves nothing in that regard although she learns to drive a car on July 5 1929. June wonders Feb. 20 1930 "why I shouldn't act like other girls Why keep myself clean No fun like others." June is in turmoil about being able to go to college primarily The Principia A School and College for Christian Scientists to which she was accepted July 8 1929 but her attendance seems delayed due to financial difficulties. She does begin to attend in 1932 and also joins the school Glee Club. Besides attending school June works in an office. June does not have an aptitude for studies i.e. October 20 1931 E-French D-European History C-Geology and English and B-Botany. Every so often June laments the fact that she has no boyfriend no money nothing! She does not get along with her father but loves him dearly. Sometimes there's a reprieve and they have a lovely time together. June loves her mother though her mother has expectations of June i.e. her mother would have a fit if she learned she gained 10 lbs. She hates Chicago and often mentions taking grandparents and going shopping in Chicago. She might be living on the outskirts because one entry observes July 20 1931 that the grain is all cut and stacked. This Depression era diary notes on May 11 1930 "most of the furniture gone from the housecouldn't give mother anything for Mother's Day". On March 9 1931 "not much food in the house but will manage - so hungry and cold". Then later that year March 26 the family receives a check for $8870.44 and they in turn are very happy. Some miscellaneous observations include: March 4 1933 President Roosevelt elected and March 8 1933 "House meeting on Death" and May 30 1933 "went to Art Institute and saw period rooms and painting exhibit" and June 22 1933 "Went to World's Fair - Marvellous". The approximately 395 page book is well filled and for researchers and historians of Chicago area Depression Era or women's studies will be hard pressed to find a more interesting peek into the world of this young woman.

Virgil (Virgilius or Virgilio or Vergilio)Biblio.com

La Bucolica et la Georgica di Vergilio tradotte in versi sciolti &LEneide di Virgilio del Commendatore Annibal Caro

1586réf. 250702001Mantoua Italy: Francesco Osano 1586. Soft cover Ars Rustica. Very Good. Two works published separately in 1586 bound together: 1. La Bucolica et la Georgica di Vergilio The Bucolics and the Georgics of Virgil translated into blank verse. One by M. Andrea Lori: the other by M. Bernardino Danielli with the arguments. Newly corrected and reprinted. 2. L'Eneide di Virgilio del Commendatore Annibal Caro Virgil's Aeneid translated by and with commentary from Annibal Caro. A 435-year-old edition of Virgil's complete works in 17th to 18th century carta rustica thick paper binding. Collated and complete including most of the original blank flyleaves. Italian text. In VERY GOOD 16th century antiquarian condition. PROVENANCE From the Virgil Collection of Craig Kallendorf 1954 - 2023 who owned the largest private collection of antiquarian Virgil works 1150 editions not including Incunable books in the world. Only a handful of prominent institutions like the British Library had larger collections. Eighth-nine of the books in his collection were the only known surviving copies 71 only had one other known copy. He worked closely with Princeton University in helping to assemble supplement and catalog its Junius Spencer Morgan Virgil collection. Craig Kallendorf was Professor of English and Classics at Texas A&M University. He was the author or editor of 27 books and more than 170 articles book chapters and reference work entries. Among Kallendorf's groundbreaking monographs on the Virgilian tradition special note might be made of his Virgil and the Myth of Venice: Books and Readers in the Italian Renaissance Oxford: Clarendon Press 1999 which shows how the wide reading of the Aeneid accessed in both Latin and Italian editions contributed to Venetian ideology and the so-called "myth of Venice." With its publication according to reviewer Diana Robin Renaissance Quarterly 55.4 2002 p. 1394 Kallendorf is to be recognized as "the leading authority on the Virgilian tradition in early modern print culture in Italy." ABOUT THE BOOK Published in 1586 by Francesco Osana in Mantua modern Italy. Italian text. Rebound in 17th to 18th century carta rustica with its characteristic thick paper binding exposed cords on the joints and antiquarian spine writing. Wide-margined untrimmed paper. Octavo 6 1/8" x 3 1/2". Collated and complete: Book 1: 4 163 1 pp; Book 2: 4 original blank preliminary leaves for the Aeneid then 8 472 pp. followed by four original blank flyleaves. Woodcut printer's device on both Book 1 and Book 2 title page. Decorated woodcut initials. CONDITION REPORT: VERY GOOD Endpapers refreshed and without front blank flyleaf for Book 1. Both works are textually collated and complete. The Aeneid retains all of its original blank flyleaves scarce during a rebind. Exterior and binding - rubbed and soiled carta rustica thick antiquarian paper binding. Spine sun-darkened with the remnants of small round sticker adhered to it and what appears to be a tape stain. Rear board with some antiquarian ink writing. Bumped corners. Toned edges. Uncut/irregularly cut pages. Binding strained in a few areas with exposed cords in gutters and the text block pulling away from spine. Overall in remarkably good condition for a thick paper binding hundreds of years old. I Interior is VERY GOOD for a 435-year-old binding. Most of the text block is clean and bright white with mostly light foxing to margins. About 20% of text block shows a bit heavier foxing and/or is darkened. Pages are untrimmed and inconsistently cut with rough edges. Raggedy edges and a few leaves with tears or loss of margin corners not affecting text. A few old paper restoration repairs. Minimal worming mostly a few small holes to margins of first and last few leaves and pastedowns. Fore-edge margins browned in multiple places. A bit grubby and soiled endpapers. Former owner ink writing on title page for the Bucolic and Georgics and Kallendorf's ex libris sticker on FFEP. Francesco Osano unknown
