Stuttgart, Cottaischen Buchhandlung, 1819. 8vo. Exquisitely bound in and early 20th century full morocco binding. Spine with gilt lettering and floral motifs and boards with gilt floral motifs within a gilt-ruled panel. End-papers with Moorish lattice forms. Upper edge gilt, fore- and lower edge uncut. Binding signed “AK”. Internally very fine and clean, overall a most attractive copy. 556 pp. + frontispiece. Pp 399-400 are counted twice whereas pages 495-496 are skipped so that the final page count remains correct. P. 9 'Talismane' instead of later 'Talisman', indicating the first issue. Housed in a slipcase. Withbound in the back are pp. 7-10, the corrected pages from the second issue. A very fine copy of the first edition, first issue, of Goethe’s celebrated cycle of lyrical poems, inspired by the works of the great Persian poet Hafez. Intended as a poetic dialogue between East and West, “Divan” also reflects Goethe’s deep affection for the Austrian dancer Marianne von Willemer (1784–1860) who contributed several poems to the collection. Furthermore it represents one of the most important engagements with Eastern poetry in German Romantic literature and contains some of the finest verses of Goethe’s later years. “The West-Eastern Divan is in many ways a revolutionary book. Goethe himself was no revolutionary – far from it – and yet his book had the effect of capsizing conventional nineteenth-century conceptions of poetry. It represented nothing less than a decisive reconfiguration of poetry.” (…) By 1814, five years before the publication of the Divan, Goethe had come upon the poems of Hafiz in the translation of Joseph von Hammer (later von Hammer-Purgstall), a prolific Orientalist who had rendered the complete Divan of the Persian poet into German. The word divan (diwan in Arabic) is itself of Persian origin; originally it meant a kind of register, a record. (The word has passed into European languages to designate border and customs controls, e.g., douane in French or dogana in Italian.) An early Arab philologist could state that ‘poetry is the diwan of the Arabs’. By that he meant that the poems of the pre-Islamic Arabs, with their very specific mentions of places and of tribes, of battles and skirmishes, of blood-feuds and clan rivalries, served as a record of events that would otherwise have been lost. (…) But the word divan also came to designate the collected works of a poet. And it is in conscious imitation of his beloved ?afi? that Goethe chose to use the word Divan for his own collection. Even so, there is a crucial distinction to be noted. Goethe calls his own collection the West-östlicher Divan, the West-Eastern Divan. His Divan is not to be simply an imitation of an Eastern model but a work that holds both East and West in firm but affectionate equipoise.” (From the introduction of Ormsby’s English translation to West-Eastern Divan).Hagen 416

Shanghai, Watson, 1920. 38x29. VIII+42+IV pp. + 66 leaves, each with one tipped-in plate. Publisher's blue satin cloth, gilt-lettered and decorated with Chinese ciphers, a very fine copy. Edition limited to 1000 numbered copies of which this is no. 331, printed for H[ugo] v. Heidenstam. The Swedish engineer and diplomat Hugo von Heidenstam served as chief engineer at the Chinese International Commission for Shanghai River and Port 1910-1928, and as a member of the Chinese Government's Committee on the Regulation of Yangtsekiang 1917-1928. Most likely of Scottish origin, Donald Mennie arrived in China in 1899 and worked initially for the firm Mactavish & Lehman & Co., one of the first Shanghaiese producers of picture post-cards, before moving to the likewise Shanghai-based company of A.S. Watson & Co. Mennie became a managing director of the firm and a leading entrepreneur in China in the 1920s and 30s, but he also had a passion for photography, and used his position in Watson's to get his photographs published.

Vigtige danske forfatterskaber
Forfattere i fokus: H.C. Andersen
Andersens værker er oversat til mere end 125 sprog og overskrider grænser – hans fortællinger om undren, sorg og forvandling forbliver vævet ind i verdens kulturelle struktur.
Forfattere i fokus: Bernhard Severin Ingemann
B.S. Ingemann blev født i Torkildstrup præstegård på Falster i 1789. Han var det yngste af ni børn af den ansete rationalistiske provst Søren Sørensen Ingemann. Han havde en lykkelig og sorgløs barndom i de første ti år af sit liv. Det er nærliggende heri at se en tidlig inspiration til den idyl, der hersker i hans morgen- og aftensange.
Forfattere i fokus: Jeppe Aakjær
Jeppe Aakjær var flere gange i konflikt med samfundet, som han gjorde oprør imod. Han sad i fængsel 17 dage for sine foredrag om den franske revolution i 1789 og sine angreb på Indre Mission. Fængslingen skete 17. januar 1887.
