Edinburgh University Press, 1977. Publishers hardcover, with slightly worn jacket. IX, 172 pages. Very good clean copy. First edition thus. - The Spanish poem Fábula de Polifemo y Galatea, The Fable of Polyphemus and Galatea, or simply the Polifemo, first published in 1627 - here with an English translation and a long thorough introduction. The poem, though borrowing heavily from prior literary sources of Greek and Roman Antiquity, attempts to go beyond the established versions of the myth by reconfiguring the narrative structure handed down by Ovid. Through the incorporation of highly innovative poetic techniques, Góngora effectively advances the background story of Acis and Galatea’s infatuation as well as the jealousy of the Cyclops Polyphemus. The Polifemo was completed in manuscript form in 1613 and was subsequently published in 1627 after Góngora’s death. Luis de Góngora y Argote was a Spanish Baroque lyric poet. Góngora and his lifelong rival, Francisco de Quevedo, are widely considered the most prominent Spanish poets of all time. His style is characterized by what was called culteranismo, also known as Gongorismo. This style existed in stark contrast to Quevedo's conceptismo.

Wien: Secession & Revolver Publishing, 2011. Large tall 4to in stiff wraps as issued. 80 pages illustrated with full page colour plates. Text at end in German and English. Fine copy with only minimal shelfwear. Openness, complexity, and difference, reality as a hybrid and dynamic construct: these are the hallmarks of a steadily growing corpus of works on which Inés Lombardi has been working since the late 1980s. Through endless variations and concatenations in a variety of media including photography and video as well as installations and objects, the artist demonstrates how complex human perception is. Space plays a significant role in the artist's presentation of her works, which perpetually call for new contexts and settings that endow them with new meaning. The new series Past Present Close and Distant, which Inés Lombardi developed for her exhibition at the Secession, continues this process. In questioning the relationship of the garden, surrounding landscape, and architecture at Residência Olivo Gomes and the Fazenda Vargem Grande, two gardens by the Brazilian landscape architect and painter Roberto Burle Marx, the artist examines the relationship between past and present and addresses questions of identity and diversity. Further aspects of her investigation concern the Self and the Other and the appropriation of the unknown, nature as a construct, modernity in Brazil, and the formation of national identities. Her research covers the writings of travelers and explorers, the Romantic naturalism of the nineteenth century, and our own complex relationships to this part of our history. By publishing a hybrid text, Inés Lombardi offers a magisterial solution for expanding the exhibition concept, which she has opened up to encompass book format. Weaving together statements from her artist, architect, and theorist friends about their personal impressions of the images the artist sent to them, she has created a text collage that forms a new ensemble from the sum of its parts. The result is open and complex and as dynamic as all of the artist's works.

Arrow Books, 2003. Thick paperback. 717 pages. Very good, clean and tight copy.  'I have put my genius into my life but only my talent into my work'. So said Oscar Wilde of his remarkable life - a life more complex, more erotic, more troubled and more triumphant than any of his contemporaries ever knew or suspected. Neil McKenna's The Secret Life of Oscar Wilde charts fully for the first time Oscar's astonishing erotic odyssey through Victorian London's sexual underworld. Oscar Wilde emerges as a man driven personally and creatively by his powerful desires for sex with men, and Neil McKenna argues compellingly and convincingly that Oscar's Wilde's life and work can only be fully understood and appreciated in terms of his sexuality.The book draws of a vast range of sources, many of them previously unpublished, and includes startling new material like the statements made to the police by the male prostitutes and blackmailers ranged against Oscar Wilde at his trial which have been lost for over a century.Dazzlingly written, The Secret Life of Oscar Wilde meticulously and brilliantly reconstructs Oscar Wilde's emotional and sexual life, painting an astonishingly frank and vivid portrait of a troubled genius who chose to martyr himself for the cause of love between men.
