See his entry in the Oxford DNB. 2pp, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Folded once. The recipient is not identified. Addressed to 'My dear Sir' and signed 'Herbert Thurston'. He begins by thanking him for 'the nice things you say', and continues: 'I fear I have no defence as regards Samuel Butler. I knew that he had written on the Sonnets and that some people thought highly of his book but I have never seen it. The fact was that I was provoked into talking up the question by some friends who have recently become obsessed by the Oxford theory. I promised them that I would look at their books, and my very inadequate article is the result.' In a postscript he states that he 'must look up S. Butler and "Willie Hughes." The reference in Sonnet 20 seems rather far fetched.' Butler's 'Shakespeare's Sonnets Reconsidered' was published in 1899.

At Trinity College, Dublin, where he edited the magazine Icarus, Holzapfel began to identify with Ireland and the cause of Irish nationalism; he has said he would like to be considered a true inheritor of the spiritual legacy of the Gaelic Bards. He began a lifelong study and appreciation of James Clarence Mangan (1803-1849), who he describes as the greatest Irish poet before Yeats. (Wikipedia).

With striking images illustrating the following Sonnets by Shakespeare: Sonnet 7 (traces the path of the sun across the sky); Sonnet 12 (the poet realizes that the young man's beauty will be destroyed by Time); Sonnet 27 (the poet laments that the night, which should be a time of rest, is instead a time of continuing labor as, in his imagination he wrestles to reach his beloved); Sonnet 34 (the sun is overtaken by clouds, and the sun/beloved is accused of having betrayed the poet by promising what is not delivered); Sonnet 53 (the poet praises the beloved as not only the essence of beauty, but also as the epitome of constancy; Sonnet 66 (the poet gives examples of the societal wrongs that have driven him to become weary of life and long to die, except that he would thereby desert the beloved); Sonnet 97 (the poet remembers his separation from his beloved as a period as bleak as winter); Sonnet 116 (the poet meditates on what he views as the truest and strongest form of love, that between minds); Sonnet 123 (the poet muses that there is nothing new under the sun); Sonnet 127 (the poet defends his love of a mistress who does not fit the standard conventional definition of beauty); Sonnet 144 (reflects an allegory of a person tempted by a good and a bad angel). Missing Sonnet 106 (?). Eleven powerful images by Isaac Friedlander. Prolific etcher and wood engraver Isaac Friedlander (1890-1968) was born in Mitau, Latvia. Friedlander, a fervent opponent of Czarist rule, was sentenced to death at the age of 16- a fate he managed to narrowly escape. He moved to Italy in 1912, where he befriended Russian artist Maxim Gorky. During this time, he studied etching, drawing, and relief printing at the Academy of Rome. He emigrated to the United States in 1929, eventually settling in New York where he worked as a full-time artist until his death. His work often emphasizes his native Riga, the urban drama of Depression-era New York, and the horror of the Holocaust. Friedlander's works are represented in numerous museums, including the Smithsonian, Bibliotheque Nationale, and the Brooklyn Museum.
