Killens John Oliver 1916-1987 Introduction. The Trial Record of Denmark Vesey. Boston: Beacon Press 1970. xxi 175 pp. Orange quarter cloth over boards. Light shelfwear with slight rubbing to spine and corners. Internally clean. A very good copy. $150. A reprint of the official 1822 report on the trials related to the Denmark Vesey slave revolt conspiracy. The original report titled An Official Report of the Trials of Sundry Negroes Charged with an Attempt to Raise an Insurrection in the State of South-Carolina. was edited by Lionel Henry Kennedy and Thomas Parker who served as presiding magistrates at the trials. This edition includes an introduction by author and activist John Oliver Killens. The volume documents the events surrounding the thwarted 1822 slave revolt in Charleston South Carolina planned by a free Black carpenter named Denmark Vesey. Inspired by the successful Haitian Revolution Vesey allegedly organized thousands of enslaved and free Black people to seize Charleston kill slaveholders and escape to Haiti. The central part of the book contains the official proceedings and witness testimony from the trials that followed the betrayal of the plot. This court-sanctioned account is the primary source of information on the alleged plot and the people involved. Historical Impact: The original 1822 report was a product of the white planter class's attempt to control the narrative and suppress potential dissent. The re-publication of this document in 1970 with Killens' introduction reframes the material for a modern audience and places it within the larger history of Black resistance. The conspiracy and subsequent trials significantly heightened racial fears in the antebellum South and led to stricter laws controlling enslaved and free Black people. The addition of John Oliver Killens' introduction provides contemporary commentary on the historical document interpreting it from a Black liberation perspective and highlighting Vesey as a significant figure in the history of Black nationalism and emancipation. unknown books

1676In 12° (13,1×7,4 cm); tre tomi in un volume: (16), 114, (14) pp. e una c. di tav. più volte ripiegata (rilegato nella seconda parte), 40 pp., (16), 148, (2), 17, (9) pp. Legatura coeva in piena pergamena rigida con titolo manoscritto al dorso. Bellissima antiporta figurata alla prima opera. Testatine, finalini ed iniziali xilografiche. Prima edizione completa, un’edizione precedente dove era presente solo il primo volume, uscì nel 1647 e priva anche di parte delle illustrazioni. Bartholin Thomas e Ole Worm sono stati due dei medici e professori più famosi della Danimarca del seicento dando grandi contributi alla medicina mondiale. Bartholin in particolare portò avanti le ricerche di Harvey sulla circolazione sanguigna e diventando uno dei pionieri dell’analisi del sistema linfatico. Ma unire i due grandi studiosi era la passione per la storia e l’archeologia mettendo insieme due delle più ampie ed interessanti collezioni di reperti archeologici e curiosità d’Europa. L’opera qui presentata, completa di tutte le sue parti, è uno dei più importanti repertori sui braccialetti, gioielli, monili antichi pubblicati fino a quel momento. Ricchissimo di immagini, il volume descrive dettagliatamente diversi gioielli antichi nella loro forma, materiale, utilizzo e valore rituale. Per i numerosi riferimenti ai simboli segreti di alcuni gioielli l’opera è citata anche nella Biblioteca Esoterica n. 233 “est question dans cet ouvrage… non seulement de la licorne, mais aussi d’animaux cornus et de monstres humains, par exemple de François Trouillet qui vivait aux environs de 1599 et avait au milieu du front une véritable corne de bélier”. Infatti Worm fu uno dei principali sostenitori del fatto che i corni venduti come corni di Unicorno fossero in verità corni di Narvalo. Curioso però notare che Worm fece esperimenti per testare le qualità magiche curative dei corni arrivando a concludere che essi avevano la capacità di combattere gli avvelenamenti se ingeritisbriciolati. Esemplare i ottime condizioni di conservazione. A very goog copy. Rif. Bibl.: Bibl. Danica II:446 (third edition). – Inavribus…Bibl. Danica II:446 (second edition). – Antiquitatum…Bibl.
