Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. First Edition. A first printing of the true first edition, in the original fragile dustwrapper. The book is a pocket-size small volume. Conway Memorial Lecture - delivered at Conway Hall, Red Lion Square, W.C.1 on April 19, 1939. ***Near fine in blue cloth-co…vered boards with gilt titles to the spine and the front board. Blind-stamped borders to the front board. The gilt is still beautifully bright, having been protected by the dustwrapper. The boards are also very clean, with none of the usual handling marks expected with a book this age. The book feels unread. No bumps or creases. Page block edges clean without foxing. Internally the book is also near fine, with no inscriptions, but with an attractive bookplate on the front pastedown "Ex Libris Robert George Morton - Beacon Tor, West Kirby, Cheshire". The endpapers are slightly foxed and have some off-setting, but the interior pages are clean. No creases or tears. The binding is secure and not shaken. No splitting. Spine tight. ***In a very good cream dustwrapper, priced two shillings net on the front panel. Whilst the dustwrapper is largely complete, there are some small areas of loss at the top and tail of the spine, and the top edge of the front panel - but with no loss to the titles. Some light foxing and handling marks, but no serious creases or tears. ***Contents: A list of titles uniform with this lecture, four-page foreword by Herbert Read, the printed lecture, and atv the end of the book, a statement by South Place Ethical Society (of Conway Hall, Red Lion Place, W.C.1 - The Objects of the Society are the study and dissemination of ethical principles and the cultivation of a rational religious sentiment. ***170mm x110mm. 50 pages. ***'Miss Bowen has chosen an interesting subject, and one which has been conspicuously neglected for many years. The ethical aspect of art was one of gthe preoccupations of nineteenth-century writers, and from Ruskin to Tolstoy they all made a desperate effort to give art an ethical foundation. But, however variously they expressed themselves, they had only one notion of how this could be done. Art itself must be ethical--that is to say, the artist must have an ethical conception of life and must give clear expression to it in his works. ***If you want to express the difference between an organic progressive society and a static totalitarian regime, you can do so in one word: this word art. Only on condition that the artist is allowed to function freely can society embody those ideals of liberty and intellectual development which to most of us seem the only worthy sanctions of life.' (Quote taken from Herbert Read's foreword) ***First printing of the true first edition, in the original fragile dustwrapper. Uncommon. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

The dustwrapper is complete, with just very slight rubbing and surface loss at the top and tail of the spine, and small nicks to the edges. Small closed tear to the top edge of the back panel. No serious creases or tears. There is some fading to the sun-sensitive yellow colour on the spine, and some slight marks to the white ares of the dustwrapper. ***356 pages. 221mm x 145mm. ***Contents: Part One. The Innocent Eye; Part Two. A War Diary 1915-18; Part Three. The Falcon and The Dove; Part Four. A Dearth of Wild Flowers. ***'Sir Herbert Edward Read, DSO, MC (4 Dec 1893 - 12 Jun 1968) was an English art historian, poet, literary critic and philosopher, best known for numerous books on art, which included influential volumes on the role of art in education. Read was co-founder of the Institute of Contemporary Arts. As well as being a prominent English anarchist, he was one of the earliest English writers to take notice of existentialism. He was co-editor with Michael Fordham and Gerhard Adler of the British edition in English of The Collected Works of C. G. Jung.' (Wiki) ***'Sir Herbert Read wrote no formal autobiography despite his long and prodigiously varied life as much-decorated soldier, art historian, critic, poet, novelist and key figure for nearly half a century in the cultural life of America and England. "The Contrary Experience", perhaps because it is so unconventional in form, is all the more fascinating as the totally candid self-portrait of a great man. "The Innocent Eye" describes his boyhod on a Yorkshire farm, "A War Diary", written during the First World war, describes his life in action and between periods of action, and the reading and thinking of a young infantry officer striving to keep in touch with the world of art and the intellect. "The Falcon and The Dove" is a marvellous recapitulation of an extraordinarily full life, and the final section, "A Dearth of Wild Flowers" is both an exquisite recollection in tranquility and a personal credo.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***A new edition of the autobiography of Herbert Read - re-issued ten years after the first edition with a new personal foreword by Graham Greene. Uncommon in all editions. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
