ABOUT: Rare anthology devoted to modern Soviet wood engraving and printmaking, published in Shanghai by Sanjian Shuwu and distributed through Uchiyama Bookstore (內山書店). The volume gathers fifty-nine collotype reproductions of woodcuts by several leading figures of the Russian and Soviet printmaking revival of the 1920s and 1930s, including Vladimir Favorsky, Dmitri Mitrokhin, Alexei Kravchenko and Pavel Pavlinov. Accompanied by Chen Jie's abridged translation of an essay by Soviet art historian A. D. Chegodaev, as well as a preface, plate catalogue and postface, the work was conceived as an introduction to contemporary Soviet printmaking for Chinese readers. A remarkable testimony to Sino-Soviet artistic exchanges in Republican-era Shanghai, it belongs to the context of the New Woodcut Movement (新興木刻運動), then flourishing under the influence of left-wing intellectual circles and cultural networks associated with Uchiyama Bookstore and the figure of Lu Xun. The reproductions were assembled from Soviet books, periodicals and documentary sources discovered in the early 1930s, notably through the journal Graphika. /// 中文：三閒書屋出版 — 《引玉集：木刻五十九幅》 — 1935年4月再版 — 32開（19.5 × 15.5厘米）精裝本，黑色書脊，封面貼書名籤 — 68頁 — 收錄蘇聯木刻作品59幅，以珂羅版工藝依據藝術家提供之原拓本複製印製 — 附陳節摘譯 A.

1928Very Good Russian Original dark green cloth bdg. Oblong folio. (28 x 36 cm). Eight languages of the title on the colophon, the text is completely Russian. [6], [ii], 108 p., [36] maps in various sizes, some of folded: (62x47 cm, 52,5x45,5 cm, 49,5x27 cm [x3], 61x47 cm; other maps are 36x28 cm). Four unnumbered leaves with half-title and contents for each section. Two small millimetric cuttings on two text pages. Ex-owner's name is on the title page. Markings on the index. Otherwise a very good and clean copy. Rare complete and the first atlas including a fine collection of 36 attractive chromo-lithograph maps mostly with tissue papers of the Soviet Union, edited by the Central Executive Committee and Enukidze (1877-1937), who was a prominent Georgian "Old Bolshevik". One of 11000 copies. Being published only 10 years after the USSR was established, this is the earliest atlas of the country. It seems to have been published with a wider audience in mind, with a title page in various European languages. The borders of many areas -including not just administrative regions throughout the USSR, but also entire autonomous republics (especially in Central Asia)- were in a state of flux; as such, the borders in this Atlas (including the wax-paper overlays meant to update various maps with changes made between when they were drawn and when the Atlas was published) often don't look anything like the borders they were set at the end of the Soviet Union and have continued on to modern times. Since the boundaries were often ideologically- (sometimes ethnically-, less so economically-) motivated, this offers an interesting insight into the mindset of the administration that was making these changes.

The "Union of Socialists-Revolutionaries Maximalists was a political party in the Russian Empire, a radical wing expelled from the Socialist-Revolutionary Party in 1906. The Union united agrarian terrorists, the 'Moscow Opposition' and other radical dissidents from the PSR in an independent party. The Maximalists officially split off from the PSR at its Second Congress in Imatra in 1906. Maximalists played a role in both the Revolution of 1905 and the Revolution of 1917. Many former SR Maximalists eventually joined the Russian Communist Party (Bolshevik) .Maximalists were so called because they demanded the full implementation of the 'maximum programme' in the expected revolution: full socialisation of the land, factories and all other means of production. The orthodox Socialist-Revolutionaries wanted to start with land reform but defer socialisation of other means of production. The Maximalists also rejected the PSR's version of a 'two-stage' revolution, a theory associated with V.M. Chernov. According to Chernov, the coming revolution in Russia would not be purely 'bourgeois-democratic' as the Social-Democrats claimed, but would include social and economic as well as political reforms. It would be a 'popular-democratic' revolution, and would transition into a full-blown 'labour-socialist' revolution later on. The Maximalists rejected this as Social-Democratic 'attentism' and argued that the coming Russian revolution would not be able to stop half-way; it was the two-stage theory, not Maximalism, that was unrealistic if it thought the toiling masses, once liberated, would content themselves with a bourgeois republic and gradual reforms."

Alla prima carta bianca del primo volume antica nota di possesso privata datata 1800 "Di me Niccolé Co: Batti:ala del Co: Niccolè" Prima assai rara edizione italiana, ancor più rara a trovarsi completa di tutti i volumi ed in queste ottime condizioni di conservazione, di una delle più celebri storia della Russia scritte nel settecento. La prima edizione accoluta uscì in Francia nel 1782. Pierre-Charles Levesque (1736-1812) compilò l'opera in numerosi anni basandosi su un imponente apparato documentale rintracciato negli archivi pietroburghesi dove risedette per più di 7 anni chiamato da Caterina II su segnalazione diretta di Diderot per tenere una cattedra Universitaria prima e nella Scuola Cadetti poi. L'opera ebbe subito grande successo ed ebbe grande importanza per far conoscere alle corti dell'Europa occidentale la realtà russa ed il grande potenziale del paese. Ancora oggi questa storia è considerata di grande valore ed attendibilità tanto da venir ancora ristampata. Proprio sulla scorta degli insegnamenti di Diderot e degli enciclopedisti Levesque non si accontenta di citare una fonte ma ne analizza l'attendibilità rintracciando ogni volta la fonte primaria. Opera rarissima.

1973Best.-Nr. C1624Oblong photograph 6 3/4" x 11 1/4" Signed by 14 of the 18 contestants Boris Spassky Michal Tal Anatoly Karpov Alexander Beliavsky Efim Geller Paul Keres Victor Korchnoi Nukhim N Rashkovsky Gennadi Kuzmin Vladimir Savon Evgeni Ellinovich Sveshnikov Mark Taimanov Vladimir Borisovich Tukmakov Orest Averkin and one non contestant Viktor Davidovich Kupreichik on the verso. The photograph shows the stage were the contest took place with lined up game tables and the participants during the competition. In the foreground a part of the auditorium with seated spectators. In the aftermath of Robert James Fischer's victory over Boris Spassky in the 1972 World Championship the Soviet Union had been humiliated and humbled by an American and the 35 year rule of the Soviet chess machine over the international chess world had finally been put to an end. The consequences of this result were felt in Soviet chess for months after. Mark Taimanov Tigran Petrosian and Spassky were all reprimanded for their failure to stop Fischer. Consequences continued into the 41st USSR Championship held in the Soviet capital of Moscow from October 2-26 1973. The tournament was organized to be the strongest in a decade. In addition to the four qualifying players who had each won a semi-final Orest Averkin Karen Grigorian Nukhim Rashkovsky and Evgeni Sveshnikov the very strongest grandmasters of the Soviet Union received forced invitations to participate. The list was a collection of former world champions multiple Soviet title winners and the very strongest of the Soviet school including: Spassky Petrosian Mikhail Tal Vasily Smyslov Anatoli Karpov Viktor Korchnoi Efim Geller Paul Keres Lev Polugaevsky Taimanov Leonid Stein Vladimir Tukmakov Vladimir Savon and Gennadi Kuzmin. Victor Davidovich Baturinsky the vice-president of the USSR chess federation and a Colonel of Justice explained clearly to all the participants that their attendance was not only obligatory but their very future as Soviet chess players and the favors imparted therein depended on their performance in the championship. Stein died before the championship took place and he was replaced by junior world champion Alexander Beliavsky. In addition to the composed line up it was made known that draws of thirty moves or less were 'discouraged' by the organizers. Although short draws did occur the schedule of play and the intense combat among the contestants was arduous. It was Spassky after failing in Reykjavik who emerged victorious by a full point. This edition did have the desired effect of revealing future world title candidates as Karpov and Korchnoi tied for second along with two other contestants and would face each other the following year for what ultimately was the de facto world championship. Condition: Slightly tinted trimmed at the bottom irregularly else a very good copy of an interesting chess historical document. USSR Chess Federation
