1934. FIRST EDITION HARDCOVER AND DUSTJACKET. Translated by Eden and Cedar Paul. Tan binding, red designs and lettering, red top edge, frontispiece, illustrations (plates), 247 pages. Deckled fore-edge. Dustjacket with price intact on flap. Condition of binding: Light soiling, age toning, Christmas (1934) inscription.

Dustjacket: Piece missing from lower left corner of front panel, shelving wear, lightly age toned/soiled; else overall Fair. This is a biography of Erasmus (1469-1536), one of the most famous Humanist of his time-a great scholar of the northern Renaissance, a pacifist, a contrarian, and the compiler of the first edition of the Greek New Testament to be printed and distributed. He hated bigotry, desired freedom and independence, and was called "the man who laid the egg that Luther hatched." He is similar to the liberal minds of our own times.

Yellow cloth, titled in maroon on spine with color pictorial vignette to front cover; dark green topstain; 121pp. Light soiling to cloth, else a straight, tight, Near Fine copy. In the original pictorial dustwrapper, unclipped (priced $1.50 on front flap), lightly soiled but generally bright and unfaded, Very Good+. Zweig's controversial novella, originally published in the Viennese newspaper Neue Freie Presse in 1922. The story, filled with Freudian references, deals with the romantic obsession of an abortionist with one of his patients, leading finally to her death and his suicide – almost needless to say, this was hardly the drink of choice for Americans in the Great Depression; the print run must have been small and sales smaller still, as today the book is unexpectedly scarce in commerce, and rarely found in nice condition.
