Aus dem Vorwort: "Few people would question the value of a dictionary. Those who seriously read, and still more those seriously write, keep a dictionary at hand as an indispensable aid. (.) So the Bible reveals our brokeness while bringing persuasions of grace. Generation by generation men find there a lamp for their feet and a light on their path. Otherwise they stumble in darkness. Therefore the dictionary. We pray that it may quicken faith in the earth, and bear its witness to that kingdom which was and is to come". -- Schutzumschläge leicht berieben, an den Rändern etwas gebräunt und teils mit kleineren Läsuren. - Papier leicht vergilbt.

From the Bart Auerbach Collection. 8vo. Original blue cloth, uncut. First edition. The dedication copy to fellow Irish writer Stephen MacKenna, inscribed by the poet and essayist Russell on the front free endpaper: "28.10.22. Dear MacKenna, You have been living for years in the palace chambers of thought with Plotinus. This is only a cabin you can rest in for an hour. But it was built in the same country and the air may not be altogether alien. With much affection, A. E." The printed dedication reads: "To Stephen MacKenna for the delight I have in his noble translation of Plotinus." With some marginal pencil markings, probably by MacKenna (1872-1934), a classical scholar and translator of the Neo-Platonists Plotinus and Porphyry. (BA) 'The Interpreters' was Russell's first novel, which he says "may be taken as a symposium between scattered portions of one nature dramatically sundered as the soul is in dream" (the preface). Spine slightly faded, extremities a trifle rubbed. A very good copy.
