Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Text/Strong & clean. Gray linen boards/NF, showing trace edge discoloration. DJ/VG; cut a mite too short (publisher's flaw), w/edge and surface rubs. Ribbon bookmark. The book's subtitle is Poezie Otokara Breziny v cizich jazycich. It is a remarkable tribute to t…he Symbolist poet, although it his liturgical verse that predominates here, and a treat for the Brezina fan, if not the Brezina scholar. There are translations into Latin (Jan Sprincl), Slovenian (Tine Debeljak), German (Babler), Russian (Evgenii Nedzel'skii), English (Paul Selver), French (M.-L. Hirsch), Polish (Antoni Madej), and 8 other languages. The translations are divided by the title of the book from which the poems were taken: Tajemne dalky; Svitani na zapade; Vetry od polu; Stavitele chramu; Ruce; and Torso seste knihy basni. Why hasn't someone compiled a book like this for the poetry of Wallace Stevens? 95 pages, with Frontispiece, and Obsah a prameny.

Add to basketStiff Wraps. 9th impression. Repr., translated from Czech, original black wraps with red lettering front wrap, pp 102, i, Previous owner's blind stamap front wrap, bookseller ticket inside. Small mark last (blank) page, otherwise clean. Small chip foot of backstrip. Very good condition. Science fiction play by the Czech writer K…arel Capek, first performed in England in 1923. The play introduced the word "robot" to the English language and to science fiction as a whole, and has been enormously influential in popular culture. In 1938 a 35-minute adaptation of a section of the play was broadcast on BBC Television: the first piece of television science-fiction ever to be broadcast. The robots in the play eventually rebel against and exterminate the human race. One critic has described Capek's robots as epitomizing "the traumatic transformation of modern society by the First World War and the Fordist assembly line", although Capek himself saw the play as part comedy and ending with faith that humanity would survive albeit in a different form. Early printings of the play are uncommon.
