Cloth. Condition: Good +. No Jacket. (1st Edition). 196p. Cover stained on front with a small bubble and spine sunned. Hiking in the San Gabriel Mountains north of Los Angeles, the narrator meets a shell-shocked veteran of World War I who has taken refuge in the area. Although the young veteran remembers his past, he has forgotten his name, for which the narrator christens him Deka Parsec, a backward spelling of a supposed Arabian mystic. Deka shares his worldview in this collection of short tales, reviewed in the Oakland Tribune December 4, 1921, as presenting "[a]n odd slant at things, the unusual as opposed to the startling, and plenty of exposition of the writer's philosophy." (8"x5-1/2").

Condition: NEW. Roma: Viella, 2014 9788867282050 I libri di Viella 182 800 486 p. : 63 ill. b/n, indice ; 21 cm. Il papato del comasco Innocenzo XI Odescalchi (1676-1689) rappresenta uno snodo decisivo nella rielaborazione della funzione e del valore simbolico del romano pontefice in quello che è stato definito il tempo della crisi della coscienza europea. Il risanamento delle finanze pontificie, il ruolo nodale nella vittoria viennese sui turchi e nella riconquista dell'Ungheria, la creazione del nuovo asse pontificio-imperiale-polacco, il tentativo di abolire il nepotismo e il coraggioso sforzo di riformulazione degli equilibri curiali, sono solo alcune delle tappe di uno dei pontificati più importanti dell'età moderna. Ma il papato Odescalchi può rivelarsi significativo anche sotto il profilo della committenza architettonica e figurativa. Di tutto ciò danno conto, fornendo un quadro aggiornato e di respiro europeo, i saggi qui raccolti. Bo?sel,Richard - Menniti Ippolito,Antonio - Spiriti,Andrea.

Lowry colour post card, and an A4 sheet Biography of Molnár by Andrew Merkler. No dust wrapper. Molnár was born in Budapest. He emigrated to the United States to escape persecution of Hungarian Jews by German authorities during World War II. As a novelist, he is remembered principally for The Paul Street Boys, the story of two rival gangs of youths in Budapest. The novel is a classic of youth literature, beloved in Hungary and abroad for its treatment of the themes of solidarity and self-sacrifice. It was ranked second in a poll of favourite books as part of the Hungarian version of Big Read in 2005 and has also been made into a film on several occasions. The most notable production was a Hungarian-U.S. collaboration released in 1969. Molnár most popular plays are Liliom (1909, tr. 1921), later adapted into the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical play Carousel (1945); The Guardsman (1910, tr. 1924), which served as the basis of the film of the same name (1931); and The Swan (1920, tr. 1922). His Hungarian film from 1918, The Devil, was later adapted for American audiences in 1921 and starring George Arliss in his first nationally released film. The 1956 film version of The Swan (which had been filmed twice before) was Grace Kelly's next to last movie, and was released on the day of her wedding to Prince Rainier. Two of Molnar's other plays have been adapted for other media: The Good Fairy, was adapted by Preston Sturges and filmed in 1935 with Margaret Sullavan, and subsequently turned into the 1947 Deanna Durbin vehicle, I'll Be Yours. (It also served as the basis for the 1951 Broadway musical Make a Wish, with book by Sturges.) The film version of the operetta The Chocolate Soldier used the plot of Molnar's The Guardsman rather than the plot of its original stage version, which was based on George Bernard Shaw's Arms and the Man. (Shaw disliked the operetta adaptation of his work, and would not let his plot be used for the film version. Molnar's play Olympia was adapted for the movies twice - as His Glorious Night (1929 - the notorious talkie which allegedly ruined John Gilbert's career), and as A Breath of Scandal (1960), starring Sophia Loren. In 1961, Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond turned Molnar's one-act play Egy, ketto, három into the film One, Two, Three starring James Cagney and Horst Buchholz. Finally, Molnar's play The Play at the Castle has twice been adapted into English by writers of note: by P. G. Wodehouse as The Play's the Thing and by Tom Stoppard as Rough Crossing. Molnár died, aged 74, in New York City. Member of the P.B.F.A. LITERATURE 1926-1945.
