    Softcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. 9789061432166 Brieven en Dagboeken 'Het enige wat mij interesseert is "onzin", alleen datgene wat geen enkele praktische zin heeft. Het leven interesseert mij alleen in haar ongerijmde verschijningsvorm', schrijft Charms op 31 oktober 1937 in zijn dagboek. Tegenwoordig wordt de Russische schrijver Daniil Charms erkend als een van de groten van de absurdistische literatuur. In zijn vaderland was hij tot voor kort verboden, een deel van zijn werk is verloren gegaan. Onlangs zijn een aantal dagboeken en brieven gevonden. Zij geven een onthullend beeld van een schrijver die niet alleen in zijn proza, maar ook in het dagelijks leven werd aangetrokken door het absurde. Hij schrijft openhartig over zijn seksuele verlangens, zijn verhouding met zijn ex-vrouw en zijn vriendinnen, over zijn angst voor arrestatie en ondergang. Daniil Charms (1905-1942) was een van de oprichters van de avant-gardegroepering Oberioe, wat staat voor 'Vereniging voor reële kunst' (1927-1929). Eind 1931 werd hij gearresteerd en verbannen naar Koersk. In 1932 keerde hij terug naar Leningrad, waar hij in zijn onderhoud voorzag met het schrijven van verhalen en gedichten voor kinderen. In de herfst van 1941, tijdens het beleg van Leningrad, werd Charms opnieuw gearresteerd. Hij werd krankzinnig verklaard en naar een psychiatrische inrichting gestuurd waar hij in 1942 omkwam.; Goed/zeer goed. Fijne paperback met fris en schoon binnenwerk, recht boekblok, gaaf omslag, geen leeslijntjes. Hoek voorplat rechtsonder vederlicht schaafwondje. …

    Wooden panel (59 x 35 cm) with 25 bronze casts of ancient Chinese coins and amulets inserted. A solid piece of wood with small scratches and minor wear, parts of old Chinese label on reverse. Mounted in a later wooden frame. The collection shows examples of old coins and charms in the shape of spades, knives, rings, and two large symbolic figures: a horse and two birds in a tree. China was one of the first countries to use metal coinage and its ancient coin history can be traced back more than two thousand years. The Chinese also produced "coin-like" charms and talismans which were used to suppress evil spirits and to bring "good luck" or "good fortune". During the Zhou Dynasty (1046-256 BC) some of the first forms of money were cast in the shapes of tools, for example as spades, shovels or knives. Thereafter the "round money" appeared and during the Han Dynasty a round shaped coin named "wu zhu" was introduced. It was minted for more than 700 years from 118 BC to 618 AD. This panel contains nine spade-shaped coins or charms which we believe are the earliest examples in the collection. Two pieces have the knife shape. Three large examples of "open charms" are included with illustrations of a dragon, the zodiac and the eight trigrams. In addition there are seven pieces of different kinds of round coins or charms and two pendant charms, all decorated with different characters and symbols. We believe that the panel dates from the latter part of the 18th century and sits firmly in the context of the Emperor Qianlong?Äôs unequalled obsession with Chinese history, art and literature. Reigning from 1735 to 1796, he created and conserved unparalleled collections of all ages and aspects of Chinese culture while honouring Manchu and Confucian traditions. This panel, with a patina consistent with its (likely) date, was probably used as a teaching aid, and reflects the Emperor?Äôs interest in promoting and preserving the glories and utility of the Chinese past. A most unusual and impressive work.…
