Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Morris Meredith Williams / Bror Julius Olsson-Nordfelt / B. Cohen. (illustrator). Gordon Hall Gerould (1877 - 1953) was an American philologist and folklorist who had an abiding interest, and thus authority about medieval legends. Guy of Warwick was one such legendary individual, known for his many deeds and for the stalwartness of his heart. Many are the stories about this person. In this modern retelling, Professor Gerould modernizes the language, but remains true to the story and the medieval romantic spirit. The book ends with a poem. "Guy and Amarant", taken from Samuel Rowlands, found in "Percy's Reliques". The book, published in London by George G. Harrap & Co. was published in 1914, and is illustrated by M. Meredith Williams, B. J. Olsson-Nordfelt, and B. Cohen. Gerould concludes his book with an Author's Note, from which the following is taken : |> The story of guy of Warwick is one of those national sagas that arose in England in the earlier part of of the age of romance. Like it in origin are King Horn, Havelok the Dane, Beves of Hamtoun, and Athelstone. Together they form a group of romances essentially English, easily separable from the cycles that grew up first in France. <| |> The foregoing tale is an attempt to give modern readers a literary version of a medieval story. It follows no one of the numerous variants accessible to scholars, but makes use now of this form, now of that, as seems best for the course of the narrative, though it is largely based on the Middle English metrical versions of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. I have tried to make not a paraphrase but a new version, omitting much, adding a good deal, using the materials somewhat as mediaeval romancers themselves were accustomed to do. I have tried to put in nothing that should be out of keeping with the spirit of mediaeval romance, but otherwise I have felt bound by no restrictions. SERIES : Told Through the Ages TITLE : Guy of Warwick AUTHOR : Gordon Hall Gerould (1877 - 1953) ILLUSTRATORS : Morris Meredith Williams / Bror Julius Olsson-Nordfelt, / B. Cohen IMPRINT : George G. Harrap & Co.

CONDITION -- VERY GOOD -- This is a previously owned book that remains clean and presentable, with the following particulars noted : EXTERIOR -- Leather at head of spine is eroded; leather at foot of spine is rubbed and has slight surface loss; leather joints are rubbed; boards have a touch of rub, but are basically clean and free of wear; top text-block edge is considerably rubbed; fore- and bottom edges are toned, else clean. BINDING -- The book has obviously been read more than once, the leaves opening easily, and which are just a touch shaken, , however no leaves are detached or loose. INTERIOR -- The end-papers are toned and somewhat foxed; the front free end-paper has just barely visible some pencil erasures, which I assume are old prices from dealers; the paper over the hinges of the end-papers is not split; on the back of the frontispiece is a small smudge; there are shallow dents on the fore-edges of the frontispiece and the title page (basically the first few leaves of the book) - else the interior is clean and free of marking. It is basically a well-read but not abused volume.

Hardcover. Condition: VG+. Pink and blue color-illustrated boards with blue, black and white lettering; vii, 152 pp.; richly illustrated, chiefly in color. "B.J.O. Nordfeldt was described by a Minneapolis art critic in 1935 as a "painter's painter," and his prolific career evinced constant experimentation with subjects, genres, and media of modernist art. The Swedish emigrant lived throughout the world-from his early training and teaching in Chicago to the dynamic art scenes of Paris and New York to popular American art colonies in Provincetown, Santa Fe, and Lambertville, New Jersey. These various locales encouraged him to engage with new styles and techniques in oil paintings, watercolors, prints, woodcuts, and etchings. His landscapes, portraits, and still lifes showed similarities with the work of Matisse and Cezanne, as well as elements of cubism, and his wood carvings and prints revealed influences from Paul Gauguin and Japanese traditions. In the 1930s Nordfeldt taught at the Minneapolis School of Art (now the Minneapolis College of Art and Design). In 2021 the Weisman Art Museum at the University of Minnesota will host a major exhibition of Nordfeldt's diverse art. A comprehensive review of this "independent regionalist" and intensely innovative artist, B.J.O. Nordfeldt: American Internationalist also presents the impressive breadth and creative exploration of twentieth-century American modernist art. Contributors: Annika Johnson, Paul Kruty, and Janet Whitmore." -- Publisher.
