Best.-Nr. 40032Turnhout Brepols 2008. Hardback XII494 p. 2 colour ill. 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503514529. This collection of prose vitae of four virgins and scholars - Saints John the Baptist John the Evangelist Jerome and Katherine of Alexandria - was almost certainly copied and the texts very likely composed at Syon Abbey or Sheen Charterhouse in the mid-fifteenth century. The lives cover a wide range of hagiographic modes from hagiographic romance to affective devotional appreciation to doctrinal treatise in narrative form. From the life of Jerome composed by a monk for his aristocratic spiritual daughter to the life of Katherine reputedly translated for Henry V to those of John the Baptist and John the Evangelist which set their subjects in a recognizably Birgittine context they show the interaction of men and women lay and monastic in the production of devotional literature. The diversity of their approaches and sources moreover shows the links between English dynastic politics and continental religious literature and spiritual traditions. As examples of translation practices of monastic politics and of religious instruction these lives provide a window onto the devotional culture and literary worlds of fifteenth-century Europe.

1965Best.-Nr. rbr1-wam372From the Copyright Page: "This limited edition from Northland Press is produced through lease of rights from Alan Swallow owner of Sage Books which publishes the regular cloth and a Western Sage Paperbooks edition of 'The Man Who Killed The Deer.'" This copy is #895 of an edition limited to 1250 copies. From the Foreword: "Taos is the setting of this transcendent novel in which place is as important as people. Taos has evoked some of the best of all writing about New Mexico from D. H. Lawrence Mabel Dodge Luhan and Harvey Fergusson to Frank Waters whose 'The Man Who Killed the Deer' is for me the supreme book about the region in which are fused all those elements which make Taos a kind of holy city more so it seems to me than the city of the Holy Faith Santa F the New Mexican capital eighty miles down the Rio Grande."

1897Best.-Nr. OB312London: Lawrence & Bullen 1897. Hard Cover. 312 pages. 'Ser Giovanni's collection begun in 1378 and finished after 1385 derives its title Il pecorone 'the numbskull'-- a title probably not due to the author-- from the fact that so many pecoroni appear in the book. The frame story tells of a chaplain and a nun who on 25 successive days meet in a convent parlor each telling the other a story each day. About half the stories are fictional; the other half are drawn from the Chronaca of Giovanni Villani. Many of the tales are stupid but a few are definitely good. The best that of Giannetto and the Lady of Belmonte embodies the 'pound of flesh' motif in an excellent plot from which Shakespeare derived directly or indirectly the 'pound of flesh' portion of the plot of The Merchant of Venice' Wilkins. 110 copies printed of which this is number 95. Printed on 'Japanese vellum.' Good copy vellum spine soiled nicked at bottom. Stock#OB312. Lawrence & Bullen hardcover
