1877Best.-Nr. 36206Leipzig: Breitkopf & Härtel PN 8335 1877. Folio. Original publisher's dark brown wrappers with titling within decorative border. 1 recto title verso blank 3-57 i blank pp. Engraved. Wrappers slightly worn and soiled. Occasional light foxing; some leaves detached and frayed at edges. First Edition of this arrangement. MWV L6 p. 196. Rare no copies located outside of Germany. Not in Krause the Catalogue of the Mendelssohn Papers in the Bodleian Library or Hoboken. Heimkehr aus der Fremde to a libretto by Karl Klingemann was first performed privately in Berlin on 26 December 1829; its first public performance took place in Leipzig on 10 April 1851. "Mendelssohn's deft command of orchestral colour is evident throughout the work and his ability to create charming effects with the simplest of means is impressive." Clive Brown in Grove Dictionary of Opera "One of the most gifted and versatile prodigies Mendelssohn stood at the forefront of German music during the 1830s and 40s as conductor pianist organist and above all composer. His musical style fully developed before he was 20 drew upon a variety of influences including the complex chromatic counterpoint of Bach the formal clarity and gracefulness of Mozart and the dramatic power of Beethoven and Weber. Mendelssohn's emergence into the first rank of 19th-century German composers coincided with efforts by music historiographers to develop the concept of a Classic-Romantic dialectic in 18th and 19th-century music. To a large degree his music reflects a fundamental tension between Classicism and Romanticism in the generation of German composers after Beethoven." R. Larry Todd in Grove Music Online.

1944192 pages including index and an appendix listing contemporary personalities in Japan and Japanese-Occupied Asia. "The present study falls into two sections which are complementary. The first deals with machinery and methods and endeavours to give as full and detailed a survey as is possible of the various government organs directing and controlling political warfare, the structure of the Japanese press, the organisation of Japanese broadcasting, the functioning of censorship, and the extent to which education, science, literature, the arts and the cinema are being employed for purposes of propaganda, both in the Japanese homeland and in the wider area of the conquered empire... The second part deals... with the aims and policies of Japanese propaganda, and attempts to give an outline of the way in which the machinery, sketched in the first part, is being operated." - from introduction. Prior owner's name and pencil erasure atop front endpaper else unmarked. Minor adhesive residue upon back endpaper, possibly from bookplate or pocket removal. Evidence of small sticker removal at base of front board. No library markings per se. Above average wear and soiling to red cloth boards. Spine sunned but its gilt lettering remains legible.
