He resigned as ambassador in 1916. He was a prolific author of stories, hymns and poetry.

In den WarenkorbZustand: Very good. Cleveland, Ohio, March 14, 1903., 1903. Very good. - Over 230 words typed on his 11 inch high by 8-1/2 inch wide "President's Room / Western Reserve University / Adelbert College / Cleveland" stationery. The University's president Charles Franklin Thwing thanks the American impressario and lecture manager Maj…or James P. Pond for the gift of an inscribed copy of Pond's lecture on Henry Ward Beecher. He goes on to explain that "I dare not undertake any financial responsibility regarding the coming of Ernest Thompson Seton to Cleveland." He explains that several academic lecturers "are coming to us in the next weeks." He hopes that Major Pond will be his guest the next time he is in Cleveland and that "I shall be very glad, of course, it is needless to say, to arrange for you to lecture; and yet be it said even a man like you I hesitate to ask in a formal way, for the reason that I find academic audiences are usually small for general lecturers, however fascinating the subject, however eminent the lecturer." Signed "Charles F. Thwing" with a couple of minor corrections in his hand. Pond has stamped that he has answered the letter at the very top. Folded for mailing with short tears to the edges of the horizontal fold and minor creases to the edges. Very good. The American clergyman and educator Charles Franklin Thwing (1853-1937) was president of Cleveland's Western Reserve University and Adelbert College. In that role, he signed a petition for President William McKinley to mediate the Boer War conflict between Great Britain and the Transvall and the Orange Free States. Thwing was a member of the National Negro Committee, a precursor of the NAACP, and a supporter of the subsequently created NAACP.

The top edge is slightly darkened & the top right corner is lightly creased. Folded twice for mailing. Very good. Max Lerner regrets that he is unable to accept an invitation to speak in Harold Rugg…'s lecture series,: "I got myself tied to a series of radio and lecture commitments in addition to my PM work and on top of it all I am trying to finish up my book on American civilization" ["America as a Civilization: Life and Thought in the United States Today"]. After congratulating Rugg on his recent marriage, he writes that he hadn't known about Rugg's new book. "PM" only publishes two book reviews a week but he will ask them to look into it with special care.Max Lerner [1902-1992] was an American journalist and educator known for his controversial syndicated column in the New York Post. The column, which debuted in 1949, earned him a place on Nixon's enemies list. "America as a Civilization", which doesn't get published until 1957, was his most influential book.One of the most significant educators during the Progressive era of education, Harold Rugg [1886-1960] was a professor of education at Teachers College of Columbia University. A Civil Engineer, he had become interested in how students learn and pursued a doctorate in education. He was responsible for producing the very first series of school textbooks from 1929 until the 1940s.

In den Warenkorb4to and 8vo. Together 10½ pp. on 3 bifolia and 8 single sheets. The ALS in pen and pencil. With typescript envelope. Amicable letters to the French artist and writer Boris Vian (1920-59) about his literary career, from which he struggled to make a living, as well as family affairs and Vian's writing. - Several letters mention a…piece on the Maginot Line which Vian was doing for the US magazine "Reporter", where Brossard worked as a journalist: "There is a lot of European stuff they are interested in and maybe you could do it. Namely, they are very interested in seeing a piece on the Maginot Line revisited [.] What is happening with the Line now, are people living in it, has it been dismantled, have the rats taken over, and so on. It would be a semi symbolic visit, as though you were visiting an idea about life you held as a child and found, in the adult world, that is was totally impracticable [.]". - Having left the "Reporter", he refocuses on his novels, expressing confidence that Vian's 1946 crime novel "I Spit on Your Graves" would be a huge success in the U.S.: "Forget the Maginot Line piece. I'm no longer working for the Reporter. Hope the whole thing did not upset you [.] My novel - published about 4 weeks ago - is slowly selling but will not make me any dough. Meanwhile I am trying to write a sexxy little novel under a different name - maybe Vernon Sullivan! - to make some money. My second novel ["The Bold Saboteurs", 1953] is all finished, on it I will stand or fall as a writer up to now [.] would you ask [Raymond] Queneau how he feels about the second novel [.] please send me another copy of I shall spit on your graves [.] I want to turn it over to my agent, who is the best in New York. I am positive it would sell like crazy here [.] My personal life stinks, as usual. But that is my destiny at the moment. My child, however, is very rewarding. A completely adorable beast [.]". - Hoping to score a secure job with the international broadcaster "Voice of America" funded by the U.S. Congress: "I am trying now to get a big job in the government, in the Voice of America. It would pay well, about $10,000 a year, and if they hire me they would want to send me to Europe for a couple of years. I go to Washington D.C. this week to see if my family can pull some wires in the government [and] use some influence on my behalf. It is too hard and too nerve wracking to try to make a full time living as a writer or an editor [.]". - About his financial situation and literary productivity: "I have a new novel coming out in the spring [.] It was just sold to the reprint people [.] for $7500. This is what we're living on. I have begun a third novel, called The Double Dealers [.]" (no such novel was published; Brossard's third novel was titled "All Passion Spent"; his fifth novel is titled "The Double View"). - About his family's difficult situation: "Very little new with me worth talking about, lots of minor bad luck - wife broke her ankle [.]. Still waiting on a job. Sent Queneau the rest of my second novel, but have not heard from him [.]". - Wondering about Sartre's intentions to publish two works: "The next time you see Queneau would you ask him if Jean Paul Sartre is going to publish those 2 stories [.]". - A few tiny marginal flaws; small portion of one letter torn, not affecting text.

Writing from Baltimore, where he settled after the Civil War, the Georgia-born author Richard Malcolm Johnston writes to the American lecture manager James…B. Pond that he is sending him 2 of his books, "I have ordered a copy of my Absolom Billingslea to be sent to you, and I beg you Pond to accept, with my compliments, the copy of Mark Langston that will accompany it." He goes on to indicate "I would like to be joined in some consideration for readings in the coming season." Signed "R.M. Johnston".

Born in Powelton, Georgia, the American author and educator Richard Malcolm Johnston (1822-1898) took up the study of law and was admitted to the bar in 1843. He was appointed to the chair of belles-lettres and oratory at the University of Georgia in 1857, a position he held until the start of the Civil War at which time he started a school for boys near Sparta while serving on the staff of General Joseph E. Brown. Moving to Baltimore after the war, he set up the Pen Lucy School for Boys where the Georgia-born poet Sidney Lanier convinced him to write for publications. Starting his new career at the age of 50, Johnston published several books including "Old Mark Langston", and "Mr. Absolom Billingslea and Other Georgia Folks" which was published the same year as this letter.

In den WarenkorbButler had been Taft's running mate in the 1912 United States presidential election. Such was his standing in the US that The New York Times printed his Christmas greeting to the nation every year. He shared the 1931 Nobel Peace Prize with Jane Addams. The present item is not untainted by the pompous circumloctions what one crit…ic described as Butler's 'interminable miasmas of guff'. 2pp, 4to. On aged and creased paper, with slight damage to extremities but with text completely intact. Signed 'Nicholas Murray Butler'. He received Dickinson's letter just as he was 'leaving for Berlin on matters of common interest to us all'. From there he will head to London, where he will spend two July weeks 'at the Berkeley Hotel in Piccadilly which is my usual stopping place'. He continues: 'As you know, I am greatly interested in the work of the World Alliance and have recently discussed its undertakings and needs with some of our friends in America.' He cannot see any support for the WA 'in the immediate future', other than through 'some allotment from the Church Peace Union'. He explains in some detail how the 'funds of the Carnegie Endowment' are 'entirely obligated in carrying forward work already in progress': 'Our Comité d'Administration in Europe has at his disposal a very limited allotment, and that the Comité is using to what it regards as the best advantage in the work that has been organised under his direction.' Note from Swarthmore site: "The Alliance was created in August 1914 at a conference in Constance, Germany, as an international organization that would work primarily to help Christian churches in its member countries influence their people and governments for peace. Its stated purpose was "to organize the religious forces of the world so that the weight of all churches and Christians can be brought to bear upon the relations of governments and peoples to the end that the spirit of peace and goodwill may prevail, and that there may be substituted arbitration for war in the settlement of international disputes; friendship in place of suspicion and hate; co-operation instead of ruinous competition; and a spirit of service and sacrifice rather than that of greed and gain in all transactions between the nations." In consequence the Alliance worked on such issues as disarmament, racial and religious minorities, the League of Nations, conscientious objection, refugees, peace education and arms control.".

In den Warenkorb1p., 4to. A fair copy, on a piece of aged high-acidity paper, with chipping and loss to edges (not affecting text). Signed at foot. The poem begins: 'Heart of a hero in a poet's frame, / Soul of a soldier in a body frail, - / Thine was the courage clear that did not quail / Before the giant champions of shame'. Gilder is praised… as a 'poet, patriot, friend', the poem concluding: 'Thou leavest two great gifts that will not die, - / Amid the city's noise, thy lyric cry! / Amid the city's strife, thy noble deed!' Gilder's 'noble deed' is presumably his chairmanship of the first Tenement House Commission in New York City, a post which he filled with great distinction.

In den Warenkorb8vo. 4 pp. Double sheet. Thanks the German translator of the Divina Commedia for the delivery by his Berlin publisher. So far, he has only read the preface. Your illustration of the ,majestätischen Wellenschlag des Dante'schen Verses' is very striking and beautiful. The verse has a stately music of its own, and the translator wh…o does not keep step to it fails to render one of Dante's chief characteristics []" - He thanks for the praise of his own translation of the Commedia into English.

In den Warenkorb12mo. 2 pp. (19 lines). The letter with New Year wishes was probably addressed to a British friend, as Longfellow mentions his astonishment that Thomas De Quincey (1785-1859) is little published in England: "A new interesting book, just published here in Boston, but not yet published in England except in old magazines. How is it… that a writer of so much power as De Quincey is so much neglected in his own country?". - From 1851 Ticknor, Reed and Fields of Boston published the collected works of Thomas De Quincey, starting with his most famous work, "Confessions of an English Opium-Eater". Longfellow also mentions Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Charles Lloyd, friends of De Quincey's, as well as a mutual friend or acquaintance who came to Boston "and has brought out six or eight extremely interesting volumes". - With a collector's note in pencil. Traces of folds. A minor tear to the fold and some browning.
