Interior: firma y dedicatoria del editor Guzmán Álvarez al hispanista José Antonio Barbón en portada; etiqueta de librería de venta original en primera página; hojas ligeramente tostadas. USADO / GEBRAUCHT / USED. Proverbios morales es un largo poema de contenido moral y sapiencial escrito en castellano medieval por un autor identificado como Santo(b), judío de Carrión, probablemente hacia mediados del siglo XIV. El poema está dirigido al rey Pedro I de Castilla, con referencias a su padre Alfonso XI, y circuló tanto entre lectores cristianos como judíos. Compuesto en forma de máximas y reflexiones éticas, el texto aborda diversos temas como la virtud de la liberalidad, la pobreza del sabio, la magnanimidad del rey o la importancia del saber desde una perspectiva que combina sabiduría práctica y filosofía moral, sin limitarse a un solo grupo social. Escrita desde la posición de quien se sabe frágil pero intelectualmente valioso, la obra desarrolla una ética exigente para una "aristocracia espiritual" y refleja el entrelazamiento de la tradición sapiencial medieval europea y la cultura judeoespañola.

Dedica autografa di Sem Benelli alla prima c. bianca: Al magg.[iore] [il nome del dedicatario è stato abraso e non risulta leggibile] con amicizia e con fede Sem Benelli zona di guerra ott. 1918. Buon esemplare. Edizione originale e prima tiratura di questa raccolta di scritti patriotico-militari del Benelli, dedicati soprattutto alla Prima Guerra Mondiale (anche se non manca uno scritto commemorativo di Garibaldi). Il Benelli, che era stato ufficiale durante la guerra, venne due volte ferito e decorato al valore. Sem Benelli (Filettole, Firenze, 1877-Zoagli, Genova, 1949) fu popolarissimo drammaturgo di imitazione dannunziana (ciabatta smessa del dannunzianesimo lo definì causticamente Giovanni Papini), celebre soprattutto per la Cena delle beffe, moltissime volte ristampata e oggetto anche di una versione cinematografica di Alessandro Blasetti, la cui fortuna è da ricercare nella stessa facilità del suo linguaggio ampolloso e decadente. Gambetti Vezzosi, 59. Italiano.

Condition: Very good condition. Lithograph by the French caricaturist 'SEM', Georges Goursat (1863-1934), who was recognized for his caricatures of socialites of the French Belle Epoque and of the people who served their fashion needs. He was active in the early years of the 20th century. The caricature depicts a bowler hat being produced through 'alchemy' by the famous Paris hat maker Gelot, located at the place Vendome. Gelot was the preferred hat maker of King Edward VII; his coat of arms is at the top of the image. The hat maker raises a domed cover or cloche to reveal a freshly produced black bowler hat, as steam billows in the background. One has the impression the hat was fashioned or cooked up through some instant proprietary process, and all the hat maker had to do was raise the lid to reveal his latest creation. The cloche was perfected by the French as a way of protecting tender plants. Lithograph with stenciled color, signed in the plate. Approximately 13 x 19 3/4".

This rare portfolio captures the high-stakes courtroom drama of Paul Bolo, a French financier turned traitor. Bolo orchestrated a massive anti-war propaganda campaign in France using $2.5 million in German funds-funneled through the Egyptian Khedive, Abbas Hilmi. After the plot was unmasked, Bolo (who had adopted the title "Bolo Pasha") was convicted of treason and executed by firing squad in April 1918. Across 68 masterful lithographic sketches, the renowned caricaturist Sem (Georges Goursat) documents the tension of the proceedings. His sharp, economical lines bring to life the judge, the defiant defendant, and the parade of witnesses. While Sem is best known for his whimsical depictions of the Belle Epoque elite, this work demonstrates his keen eye for the psychological weight of a national crisis. Georges Goursat, better known as Sem, was the premier social chronicler of his age. A regular contributor to France's leading periodicals, his work remains highly esteemed today for its ability to capture the essence of the French ruling class with equal parts wit and precision.
