	BRITTEN JAMES The Scarlet Woman or the Methods of a Protestant Novelist Catholic Truth Society, U.K.. Paper Covers. Good Plus/No Jacket. Undated. 32 pages in paper covers. This booklet looks at the author the Rev Joseph Hocking, well known for his anti-Catholic stance which was evident in many of the novels he wrote before the Great War, who in 1899 published in volume form a a novel entitled The Scarlet Woman. This story formed the subject of an article in the religious publication 'Month' for January, 1900, in which its preposterous nature was exposed and its author's claims to have based his ridiculous statements upon authentic information were provided, by his own admissions, to be devoid of foundation. Mr Hocking thereupon addressed a letter of protest to the Month, which were printed with a footnote by the Editor in which the charges against him were maintained. Book - in red coloured paper covers with black lettering - some red colouring from the paper covers has leeched onto the first & last couple of page edges, well away from the text and not effecting its legibility, otherwise the contents are clean and tight.

	BURTON JOHN HILL Book-Hunter Etc William Blackwood, U.K. 1862. First Edition, Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. viii, 384 pages. "This book owes its existence to a concurrence of accidents. The Author had the honour of contributing to Blackwood's Magazine some sketches of the ways of book-collectors, scholars, literary investigators, desultory readers, and other persons whose pursuits revolve round books and literature. Some friendly criticisms having induced him to reflect on what he had written, he saw, as will generally happen in such cases, that were he to go over the ground again, he would find much that lie would desire to alter, and many things that might be added. He therefore resolved to recast the whole and expand it to the compass of a thin volume. The thin volume, however, fattened as it approached maturity, until it reached the respectable dimensions in which it now awaits the appreciation of any reader who may think it worthy of his attention." Book - in Good original red boards, bumped to the corners, leather spine laid on with the title and author in gilt which looks to have been done in the 1920's, some marking and fading to the boards and slight marking to the original brown endpapers, a small price to the front free endpaper, otherwise clean, bright and tightly bound.

	DUHAMEL GEORGES (OF THE ACADEMIE FRANCAISE) TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH BY E F BOZMAN In Defence of Letters Dent, U.K. 1938. First UK Edition, Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 240 pages. PREFACE "The thought that this book, in a careful and scholarly translation, was about to cross the Channel and be come available to British readers made me cross-examine myself as to the meaning and importance of the problems that such a work sets out to raise, if not to solve. Some writings have an interest which may seem to be great at one given place in the world, but which remains bound up with the sentiments, the passions, and the history of a group of human beings, more or less numerous. The import of such writings is local, provincial, or national according to circumstances. It may happen that a book of this type will be worth translating for the reason that it offers valuable information about the spiritual or material life of the people of its birthplace. Other writings open certain discussions with which all civilized peoples are concerned to a greater or lesser degree. One part of the present work, the last and smallest, corresponds to the first category of books; it offers a picture of French literature which British readers can examine and compare with their own experiences and personal opinions. But the major portion of my work is devoted to serious questions which will hence-forward demand attention from all thinking people in the western societies. The West is to-day, more than ever before, divided and afflicted by formidable evils; it is exposed to the rebellion of a confused world which in former times it used to accept without question. In spite of their internal disputes the peoples of the West are the responsible guarantors of a civilization which may have made some mistakes but which deserves to survive and to continue to function. Are we about to witness a transformation of our system of culture? That is precisely the question I am asking the educated people of France and Great Britain, of Europe and America. The life of the literati, notwithstanding certain minor local differences, is regulated by customs and traditions which make a sort of code that has to be revised and corrected unceasingly. To this work of examination, criticism, and correction I have the honour to-day to invite the British reader, who, like the French reader, is the guardian of a wonderful treasure, our spiritual fortune, our common heritage. GEORGES DUHAMEL. June, 1938. " Book - in Good plum coloured boards with gilt lettering - some fading to boards with slight markings, some wear to ends of spine with creasing and fading to it also, some browning/spotting to front and rear endpapers also to last page of text, remains of a book plate to rear pastedown, previous owner's inscription to front free endpaper, otherwise contents are clean, bright and tightly bound.

	FERNANDEZ RAMON [TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH BY MONTGOMERY BELGION] Messages Cape, U.K. 1927. First Edition, Hard Cover. Very Good/Good. xiii, 304 pages, size 8 inches tall by 5.25 inches. 'M. Fernandez is concerned with the problem of personality. Addressing those eager for an ideal in life, he points to the development and perfection of character. And (it is this which is his originality) for his inspiration and illustration he goes to fiction. While Croce has used a philosophy to explain art, M. Fernandez uses art, and particularly literature, to build a philosophy, and, more than a philosophy, an ethic. Nietzsche, of course, did the same, but whereas Nietzsche went back to the springs of Greek tragedy, M. Fernandez goes to the immediate and still living past. Out of his studies of Conrad, Meredith, Newman, and Pater, as well as Balzac, Stendhal, and Proust, he has found a message for the 'generation which,' to quote Mr. T. S. Eliot, 'is beginning to turn its attention to an athleticism, a training of the soul as severe and ascetic as the training of the body of a runner.' Contents : I Of PhilosophicCcriticism II The Method of Balzac : The Recital, and the Aesthetics of the Novel The Evolution of Character and of the Action III Autobiography And The Novel : The Example of Stendhal IV TheArt Of Conrad V The Message Of Meredith VI TheGuaranteeing Of Sentiments And The Intermittences Of The Heart VII TheExperience Of Newman : Mystery and the Individual; Nothingness and Faith VIII The Intelligence And Mr. Maritain IX NotesOn Three Aspects Of Modern Thought : On Freud; On Walter Pater; The Classicism of T.S.

	BRITTEN JAMES The Scarlet Woman or the Methods of a Protestant Novelist Catholic Truth Society, U.K.. Paper Covers. Good Plus/No Jacket. Undated. 32 pages in paper covers. This booklet looks at the author the Rev Joseph Hocking, well known for his anti-Catholic stance which was evident in many of the novels he wrote before the Great War, who in 1899 published in volume form a a novel entitled The Scarlet Woman. This story formed the subject of an article in the religious publication 'Month' for January, 1900, in which its preposterous nature was exposed and its author's claims to have based his ridiculous statements upon authentic information were provided, by his own admissions, to be devoid of foundation. Mr Hocking thereupon addressed a letter of protest to the Month, which were printed with a footnote by the Editor in which the charges against him were maintained. Book - in red coloured paper covers with black lettering - some red colouring from the paper covers has leeched onto the first & last couple of page edges, well away from the text and not effecting its legibility, otherwise the contents are clean and tight.

	BURTON JOHN HILL Book-Hunter Etc William Blackwood, U.K. 1862. First Edition, Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. viii, 384 pages. "This book owes its existence to a concurrence of accidents. The Author had the honour of contributing to Blackwood's Magazine some sketches of the ways of book-collectors, scholars, literary investigators, desultory readers, and other persons whose pursuits revolve round books and literature. Some friendly criticisms having induced him to reflect on what he had written, he saw, as will generally happen in such cases, that were he to go over the ground again, he would find much that lie would desire to alter, and many things that might be added. He therefore resolved to recast the whole and expand it to the compass of a thin volume. The thin volume, however, fattened as it approached maturity, until it reached the respectable dimensions in which it now awaits the appreciation of any reader who may think it worthy of his attention." Book - in Good original red boards, bumped to the corners, leather spine laid on with the title and author in gilt which looks to have been done in the 1920's, some marking and fading to the boards and slight marking to the original brown endpapers, a small price to the front free endpaper, otherwise clean, bright and tightly bound.

	DUHAMEL GEORGES (OF THE ACADEMIE FRANCAISE) TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH BY E F BOZMAN In Defence of Letters Dent, U.K. 1938. First UK Edition, Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 240 pages. PREFACE "The thought that this book, in a careful and scholarly translation, was about to cross the Channel and be come available to British readers made me cross-examine myself as to the meaning and importance of the problems that such a work sets out to raise, if not to solve. Some writings have an interest which may seem to be great at one given place in the world, but which remains bound up with the sentiments, the passions, and the history of a group of human beings, more or less numerous. The import of such writings is local, provincial, or national according to circumstances. It may happen that a book of this type will be worth translating for the reason that it offers valuable information about the spiritual or material life of the people of its birthplace. Other writings open certain discussions with which all civilized peoples are concerned to a greater or lesser degree. One part of the present work, the last and smallest, corresponds to the first category of books; it offers a picture of French literature which British readers can examine and compare with their own experiences and personal opinions. But the major portion of my work is devoted to serious questions which will hence-forward demand attention from all thinking people in the western societies. The West is to-day, more than ever before, divided and afflicted by formidable evils; it is exposed to the rebellion of a confused world which in former times it used to accept without question. In spite of their internal disputes the peoples of the West are the responsible guarantors of a civilization which may have made some mistakes but which deserves to survive and to continue to function. Are we about to witness a transformation of our system of culture? That is precisely the question I am asking the educated people of France and Great Britain, of Europe and America. The life of the literati, notwithstanding certain minor local differences, is regulated by customs and traditions which make a sort of code that has to be revised and corrected unceasingly. To this work of examination, criticism, and correction I have the honour to-day to invite the British reader, who, like the French reader, is the guardian of a wonderful treasure, our spiritual fortune, our common heritage. GEORGES DUHAMEL. June, 1938. " Book - in Good plum coloured boards with gilt lettering - some fading to boards with slight markings, some wear to ends of spine with creasing and fading to it also, some browning/spotting to front and rear endpapers also to last page of text, remains of a book plate to rear pastedown, previous owner's inscription to front free endpaper, otherwise contents are clean, bright and tightly bound.

	FERNANDEZ RAMON [TRANSLATED FROM THE FRENCH BY MONTGOMERY BELGION] Messages Cape, U.K. 1927. First Edition, Hard Cover. Very Good/Good. xiii, 304 pages, size 8 inches tall by 5.25 inches. 'M. Fernandez is concerned with the problem of personality. Addressing those eager for an ideal in life, he points to the development and perfection of character. And (it is this which is his originality) for his inspiration and illustration he goes to fiction. While Croce has used a philosophy to explain art, M. Fernandez uses art, and particularly literature, to build a philosophy, and, more than a philosophy, an ethic. Nietzsche, of course, did the same, but whereas Nietzsche went back to the springs of Greek tragedy, M. Fernandez goes to the immediate and still living past. Out of his studies of Conrad, Meredith, Newman, and Pater, as well as Balzac, Stendhal, and Proust, he has found a message for the 'generation which,' to quote Mr. T. S. Eliot, 'is beginning to turn its attention to an athleticism, a training of the soul as severe and ascetic as the training of the body of a runner.'
