Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good-. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 8vo. Published by Harper & Row, New York, 1965. 171 pgs. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities. Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Board…s have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. The main character of this classic novel, Emil Sinclair, is a young boy raised in a bourgeois home, amidst what is described as a Scheinwelt, a play on words that means "world of light" as well as "world of illusion". Emil's entire existence can be summarized as a struggle between two worlds: the show world of illusion (related to the Hindu concept of maya) and the real world, the world of spiritual truth. In the course of the novel, accompanied and prompted by his mysterious classmate 'Max Demian', he detaches from and revolts against the superficial ideals of the world of appearances and eventually awakens into a realization of self. The novel refers to the idea of Gnosticism, particularly the god Abraxas, showing the influence of Carl Jung's psychology. According to Hesse, the novel is a story of Jungian individuation, the process of opening up to one's unconsciousness.; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 171 pages.

Title, preface, index, and subtitles i…n Russian and in German.An incredible accomplishment and a standard point of reference for big part of the 20th century, the book encompassed the portraits,facsimile letters, signatures, and artwork of 137 of Russia's most accomplished authors and poets of all times - from Lomonosov, through Pushkin and Gogol, to Tolstoy, Block, and Akhmatova. The portraits, some of them from engravings, others from paintings, and still others from photographs, were originally created by renowned artists such as Mir Isskustva members Iurii Annenkov and Konstantin Somov and graphic artist Sergei Chekhonin. The author, Alexander Eliasberg (1878-1924), was a Jewish-Russian historian, translator, and author who had immigrated to Munich in 1905. Among his works, the present one was arguably his masterpiece, also evidenced by novelist and Nobel Laureate Thomas Mann's enthusiastic praises in the latter's preface to the book.
