Rumi, Mevlânâ Celaleddîn Dîvan-i Kebîr (22 Volumes: Complete Set) Description: Ministry of Culture Publications of the Republic of Turkey No. 1725. Translated by Nevit Oguz Ergin. 22 volumes. The first English translation of the complete text of Rumi’s Divan-i Kebir. 21 of the 22 volumes are first editions with color frontispieces; Volume 1 has 4 color plates. Volume 9, a later printing, lacks frontis. Turkey was instrumental in having the United Nations designate 1995 the Year of Tolerance, and the Minister of Culture hoped sharing his country's culture of tolerance could help counter throwing Islamic religious fanaticism. To that end the Ministry supported Dr. Nevit Oguz Ergin in publishing his English translation. Dr. Ergin based his translation on the Turkish scholar Golpinarli’s Turkish language version. Golpinarli in turn worked from Khorasani Farsi, Arabic, Turkish, and Greek texts dating from 1367 & 1368, one from the 15th century, and another prepared in 1691 in Baghdad. Mevlana Celaleddin, who died in 1273, came to be known as Rumi, because his Anatolian city, Konya, was under the influence of Rome. Mevlana was revered in his life as a poet, theologian, and jurist. A mystic, Rumi broke with orthodox Islam, teaching that all religions share parts of one truth. The Dîvân-i Kebîr is one of the most significant works of Persian literature; it is best understood as an anthology containing more than 40,000 verses, which were transcribed as Rumi recited them by followers known as Secretaries of the Scribe. After Rumi's death, his disciples founded the Mowlawiyah, the Sufi order known as the Whirling Dervishes. Softbound in blind-stamped brown leather-like paper with gilt titles.

Rumi, Mevlânâ Celaleddîn Dîvan-i Kebîr (22 Volumes: Complete Set) Description: Ministry of Culture Publications of the Republic of Turkey No. 1725. Translated by Nevit Oguz Ergin. 22 volumes.

Volume 9, a later printing, lacks frontis. Turkey was instrumental in having the United Nations designate 1995 the Year of Tolerance, and the Minister of Culture hoped sharing his country's culture of tolerance could help counter throwing Islamic religious fanaticism. To that end the Ministry supported Dr. Nevit Oguz Ergin in publishing his English translation. Dr. Ergin based his translation on the Turkish scholar Golpinarli’s Turkish language version. Golpinarli in turn worked from Khorasani Farsi, Arabic, Turkish, and Greek texts dating from 1367 & 1368, one from the 15th century, and another prepared in 1691 in Baghdad. Mevlana Celaleddin, who died in 1273, came to be known as Rumi, because his Anatolian city, Konya, was under the influence of Rome. Mevlana was revered in his life as a poet, theologian, and jurist. A mystic, Rumi broke with orthodox Islam, teaching that all religions share parts of one truth. The Dîvân-i Kebîr is one of the most significant works of Persian literature; it is best understood as an anthology containing more than 40,000 verses, which were transcribed as Rumi recited them by followers known as Secretaries of the Scribe. After Rumi's death, his disciples founded the Mowlawiyah, the Sufi order known as the Whirling Dervishes. Softbound in blind-stamped brown leather-like paper with gilt titles.

This section was dropped from the 1932 Kenyon Report of the Commission findings. The suppressed report reviewed the 1916 convictions of labor activists Tom Mooney to death and Warren K. Billings to life in prison for a bombing in San Francisco. The case contained abuses so blatant, they were compared the Dreyfus case. Allegations of police and prosecutorial misconduct were so well documented that in1918, after intervention by President Wilson, Mooney's death sentence was commuted to life. A Time magazine story of 1/18/1932, quoted William D. Mitchell, Pres. Hoover's Attorney General about... a report made by a subcommittee of the Wickersham Commission on the Mooney-Billings case....Its conclusions: 1) "There was never any scientific attempt made either by the police or prosecution to discover the perpetrators of the crime"; 2) "there were flagrant violations of the statutory law of California by both police and prosecution"; 3) "witnesses were coached ... to a degree that approached subornation of perjury." In 1938, after they had served 22 years, California's new governor, Culbert Olson, ordered that Mooney and Billings be released. It all makes very lively reading, [and nice to know we once had an Attorney General who put justice first.] [Thomas, Dylan] Ferris, Paul (editor) The Collected Letters of Dylan Thomas.

Description: No. 167 of 179 copies. ix, [5], 159, [5] pp. Blue-green paper covered boards over brown cloth with paper label on spine. 22 plates including frontispiece. Williamson 3056. Peter Edes (1756-1840), the first printer in Bangor, and one of the first publishers in Maine, was a patriot in the American Revolutionary War. Edes apprenticed at his father's print shop in Boston until 1779. Active revolutionaries, the family were involved in the organization of the Boston Tea party. Edes kept a diary while jailed for three months for his openly anti-British stand after Bunker Hill. In late 1785 Edes began publishing his own weekly newspaper, The Exchange Advertiser. He moved from colony to colony, publishing the Newport Herald in Newport, Rhode Island, returned to Boston and then on to North Hallowell, Maine (now Augusta) where he began another newspaper, The Kennebeck Intelligencer. Edes' enterprises seem never to have been financial successes, and he eventually left Hallowell to escape competition. In 1815, Peter Edes became the first printer in Bangor, Maine and publisher of the Bangor Weekly Register. He published the first book to be printed in Bangor, Joseph Whipple's The History of Acadie, Penobscot Bay and River... After leaving Bangor, Edes moved to Baltimore, working for his son until the son and Edes' wife died in a cholera epidemic in 1832. He returned to Bangor, living with a daughter until his death in 1840. The De Burian Society was a private book collectors' club in Bangor and publisher of three scarce and important books, on Edes; on Moses Greenleaf, Maine's first mapmaker; and on Jeduthan Baldwin, who was a Continental Army Colonel in the Revolutionary War.
