Hardcover. Condizione: New. Limited Edition. Folio, 16 1/4" by 11 1/2", 102 pages. The pagination follows the Hebrew convention, reading right to left, as do the lines of Hebrew. The type for the Hebrew is Hadassah, set in photocomposition through the good offices of Jaacov Har-El, in Tel Aviv, Israel. The type for the English is Lydian, set in photocomposition by Mackenzie & Harris. The text was printed from photopolymer plates in two cloors, black and purple. The size of the plate bearing the etching by Michael Masur is 11 1/2 by 7 1/8 inches. The intaglio printing was done by R.E. Townsend. The paper is Prague, handmade at the Velké Losiny mill in the Czech Republic. The binding, done in-house, is non-adhesive and hand-sewn with exposed thread into a cover made of handmade mauve Colombe paper from the Larroque et Pombié mill in France. The chimise and slipcase are covered in mauve Japanese cloth, with a paper spine label. Edition of 200 copies, plus 26 lettered copies hors de commerce, signed by the artist and the translator. Robert Alter, professsor of Hebrew and comparative literature at the University of California, Berkeley, had made a new translation of the first book of the Bible, which was published, with full scholarly apparatus, by W.W. Norton in 1996. It lacked the Hebrew text, and is provided in the Arion edition. All copies were accompanied by a copy of the Norton book to provide Alter's introduction and notes to readers of this deluxe edition. The types Hadassah for the Hebrew and Lydian for the English, were designed by Henri Friedlaender and Warren Chappell, both students of the great German calligrapher, type designer, and arts-and-crafts leader, Rudolf Koch (1876-1934), who work Hoyem collects. The type was computer generated and printed by letterpress from polymer plates. The type-setters in Israel asked if our rabbi would proofread the Hebrew. We answered that Professor Alter would do that. Alter's translation conveys the semantic nuances and lively orchestration of literary effects of the Hebrew and at the same time has stylistic and rhythmic integrity as literary English. Please note that the sole remaining copy, while perfect in almost every way, has a very slight sunned area on one side of the slipcase. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB, and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
