(Mallarme, Stephane) Dayan, Peter: Mallarme's Divine Transposition. Real and Apparent Sources of Literary Value
-Clarendon Press, 1986-
Modern Languages & Literature Monographs series. First edition. ix+226 pages with index. Cloth. Fine in dustjacket. Mallarme's reputation as a seminal thinker has steadily grown. Yet, despite the proliferation of references to it, his literary theory has seldom been studied directly; the great theoretical articles of his later years have never been properly elucidated. This book represents the first attempt to examine the later Mallarme's extraordinary and systematic literary idealism through a careful scrutiny of his own pronouncements on it. The book makes selective use of the textual approaches of certain post-structuralist theorists, especially Derrida. Many of their positions turn out to be fascinatingly similar to Mallarme's. But there are also vital differences, which the second part of this study highlights, between Mallarme and the modern theorists, differences which help to explain not only Mallarm e's continuing elusiveness, but also the failure of modern literary theory to face the question which Mallarme always condidered fundamental: what is good poetry? First edition offered at original price. All items are as described and dispatched within 36 hours in a secure package. We are professional booksellers with over 25 years experience and a real-life bookshop. You may order with confidence.

(Mallarme, Stephane) Temple, Michael: The Name of the Poet. Onomastics and Anonymity in the Works of Stephane Mallarme.
-University of Exeter Press, 1995-
First edition. vi+199pp with index. Cloth. Fine in dustjacket. An examination of the use of names and the art of naming in the works of Stephane Mallarme. Maintaining an independent critical and self-critical approach, the author elaborates a "theory of the name" from within the Mallarmean text, rather than through the application of the external theory. The work provides the reader with new ways of thinking about Mallarme's "development" and about poetry's attempt to break out of an embattled position in the last decades of the 19th century.

(Malory, Thomas) Ostade, Ingrid Tieken-Boon van: The Two Versions of Malory's Morte Darthur.
-D S Brewer, 1995-
Arthurian Studies XXXV. ix+169 pages with index. Cloth. Fine. No dustjacket required. Malory's Morte Darthur survives in two versions: the Winchester manuscript, which has been dated 1469-70, and the edition Caxton published in 1485. These versions were thought to be collaterally related through a common source to an original lost manuscript, until in 1977 new evidence suggested a linear descent. Dr Tieken-Boon van Ostade's study supports this argument, first through a detailed refutation of Vinaver's arguments for collateral descent, then through an analysis of the incidence of multiple negation in both versions of the Morte Darthur and the conclusions to be drawn from it. A reconstruction of the events leading to Caxton's publication of the text at a politically hazardous time completes the volume.

(Mangold, Robert) Shiff, Richard et al: Robert Mangold.
-Phaidon Press, 2000-
255x255mm 335 pages. Illustrated color. Cloth. Fine in acetate dustjacket. Still in publishers shrink-wrap. Robert Mangold is a pre-eminent figure in post-war painting. His large, gently curving paintings are among the most majestically beautiful abstract works of the late 20th century. In contrast to the sober austerity of his minimalist peers, with whom he is often associated, Mangold uses unusual, subtle colours and soft, hand-drawn geometries, endowing his large-scale paintings with a unique sensibility and presence. This is a monograph on one of most significant contemporary painters working today and is a timely retrospective on his work, made in close association with the artist himself. Mangold's work is celebrated in this book by some of contemporary art's most prestigious writers, among them Robert Storr, Curator of Paintings and Sculpture at The Museum of Modern Art, New York.

(Mann, Thomas) McDonald, William E.: Thomas Mann's "Joseph and His Brothers": Writing, Performance and the Politics of Loyalty.
-Camden House, 1999-
First edition. xiv+276 pages with index. Cloth. Near fine in like dustjacket. McDonald's study offers fresh insights into Mann's Joseph tetralogy in two ways. Beginning with Mann's well documented love for public performance, he rereads the Joseph novels as a script, showing how performance figures prominently in the form as well as the substance of the narrative. Then he interprets several of the essay-lectures composed during the Joseph years (1926-1943), emphasizing their performative qualities and their conscious (and subliminal) interweavings with the novel. Mann's passionate re-enactment of Kleist's play "Amphitryon" in his 1927 lecture provided a model of identity that he developed fully in Joseph. The model also helped him contain the more pessimistic account of identity he encountered in Freud. The Freud lectures of 1929 and 1936 develop psychoanalysis as an Enlightenment project useful in combating the irrationalism of the Nazis, and carefully control its darker aspects.

(Marston, John) Wharton, T. F. (edited by): The Drama of John Marston. Critical Re-visions.
-Cambridge University Press, 2000-
First edition. xiii+233 pages with index. Cloth. Near fine in dustjacket. Celebrating the 400th anniversary of John Marston's debut as a professional playwright, this collection of critical essays on his work by leading scholars in the early modern field discovers, in the de-centred, hilarious, but unsettling work of this idiosyncratic Renaissance dramatist, an uncannily post-modern voice. Always at odds with his contemporaries, the censor and sometimes his own audience, Marston is shown to be a deeply conflicted figure but the qualities which estranged him from previous critical eras are precisely those that are now instantly accessible. This volume's essays, the themes of which coincide both in contemporary currents in literary theory and criticism and in the plays of John Marston, reveal at every turn the full extent of his ambiguity towards politics, gender and the very medium he wrote for and in.

(McGill, Donald) Michael Winner: Donald McGill: The Michael Winner Collection
-Chris Beetles Ltd (1 Mar 2006)-
Exhibition catalogue. First edition.. 145x210mm 81 pages. Illustrated in colour. Paperback. Very good indeed. As the maestro of double entendres Donald McGill (1875-1962) has both received high acclaim and caused much scandal. Prosecuted in 1957 for obscenity, his images no longer shock the enlightened audience but continue to amuse and delight. With a unique and instantly recognisable style, Donald McGill was singled out by George Orwell in 1941 as the most prolific and by far the best of contemporary postcard artists the most perfect in the tradition . McGill s artistic skill and bawdy humour are now interesting as unconcious and historical social commentary; this appeal is as fresh now as it was then, in our present age of leisure behaving badly from Blackpool to Ibiza. Who better to own this vast collection than the rumbustious national treasure, Michael Winner. He is a distinguished collector of illustrative art and his collection of McGill postcard artwork comprises nearly 200 works.

(Michelangelo) Hugo Chapman: Michelangelo Drawings: Closer to the Master
-British Museum Press (2005)-
Exhibition catalogue. First edition. 275x215mm 320 pages with index. Illustrated in colour and black and white. Paperback. Neat bookplate. Very good indeed. Michelangelo, the greatest of Renaissance artists, was active as a sculptor, painter and architect. Aside from a few unfinished paintings and a handful of marbles north of the Alps, his genius can only be appreciated outside of Florence and Rome through his work as a draughtsman. This exhibition and book combine the best examples from the British Museum with studies of comparable quality from the Ashmolean Museum, and also from the small but very high-quality holdings of the Teyler Museum. An introductory discussion covers topics such as Michelangelo's life and contemporary fame, his training and choice of drawing technique, and the history of his drawings after his death. The book is then structured chronologically around the various important projects that punctuated the artist's career, illustrating the way in which his ideas evolved in the creation of such iconic works as the two Sistine Chapel frescoes. Each stage in his life is set against the backdrop of the continually changing political situation, Michelangelo's patrons, and the pupils and contemporary artists whom he so heavily influenced. The book includes colour illustrations of 90 drawings in the show, as well as comparative illustrations of the finished works and related studies showing their evolution. We are specialists in Catalogues: Exhibitions, Auctions, Collections, etc., with a picture of the cover available on request. All items are as described and dispatched within 36 hours in a secure package. We are professional booksellers with over 30 years experience and a real-life bookshop. You may order with confidence.

(Milton, John) Falconer, Rachel: Orpheus Dis(re)membered. Milton and the Myth of the Poet Hero
-Sheffield Academic Press, 1996-
227 pages with index. Cloth. Fine in dustjacket. Orpheus is one of a number of mythical heroes against whose image Milton fashions a sense of himself as a heroic writer, publicly and personally engaged in the politics of Commonwealth and post-Commonwealth England. how do the various guises of Orpheus (the archetypal but failing poet, the passionate but guilty lover, the victim of mob violence, the civilizer of men) contribute to Milton's conception of heroism and heroic authorship? With the assistance of Mikhail Bakhtin's work on the conepts of 'author' and 'hero', as well as recent feminist interpretations of Milton, this study examines Milton's use of the Orpheus myth across the range of his writing, from the early poetry through the prose tracts, to Paradise Lost.

(Milton, John) Kolbrener, William: Milton's Warring Angels. A Study of Critical Enlargements
-Cambridge University Press, 1997-
First edition. xii+214 pages with index. Cloth. Fine in dustjacket. The centrality of Milton to the study of English literature often obscures the intense debates that rage about this ideological allegiances. The reception and interpretation of Milton’s texts consistently present him as either a Christian republican or a committed individualist, a radical, heretical free thinker, or a traditional absolutist. In Milton’s Warring Angels, William Kolbrener provides a critical account of the reception and interpretation of Milton’s texts. He argues that the governing scheme of Milton criticism, the opposition of ‘satanic’ and ‘angelic’ readings, derives from historiographical tradition rooted in the Enlightenment. The Enlightenment antithesis between reason and authority, Kolbrener argues, has generated a set of interpretive approaches that inevitably end up violating the meaning of Milton’s texts. Kolbrener shows how Milton articulates his thought in lexicons which are never fully assimilable to paradigms of modernity drawn from the Enlightenment. Instead, Milton’s prose and poetry mediate between apparently contradictory positions; they join without ever reconciling the satanic and the angelic. By showing how Milton has for centuries resisted tendentioys appropriations and reductive readings, Kolbrener explains the continuing critical fascination with this most enigmatic of writers.

(Milton, John) McMahon, Robert: The Two Poets of Paradise Lost.
-Louisiana State University Press, 1998-
First edition. ix+210 pages with index. Cloth. Fine in fine dustjacket. The two poets of Robert McMahon's study are John Milton, the author of "Paradise Lost" and his Bard, the narrator within that epic. Most scholars blur the two into "Milton" the historic person/poet, but McMahon makes a clear distinction that begets an alternative understanding of the poem as a whole. He argues that the Bard is a fictional character created by Milton and that the Bard's own implied story unfolds as he sings his account of the Fall. In illuminating this secondary story, McMahon reveals that Milton's masterpiece is as much about the making of a Christian epic poet as it is about mankind's undoing.
