A propos de cet article

Scarce in the trade in this complete state and overall easily Very Good condition, Volumes One through Nineteen, published between 1925 and 1927 for The Delphian Society by W.B. Conkey Co., Chicago, Illinois. Octavo flexible hardcover format, a brown limp leatherette binding measuring 9" x 6 1/4" and with gilt lettering to front covers and spines some of both rubbed but structurally sound and clean and otherwise unmarked of interiors.

Description de la boutique

Member, I.O.B.A. (the Independent On-line Booksellers Association) "Structure" versus "Agency." A phrase that has characterized much social-scientific debate. Does “structure” (the routinized regulations of kinship and marriage, work and reproduction, of race, class and gender) determine history, or is it the “agency” of fully conscious, independently acting, individuals? Structure, Verses, Agency Books isn’t going to solve the debate, but we’ll offer you lots of all three. Versus to verses—we specialize in fine, rare and collectible books, from the fine arts to the social sciences, from poetry to photography, from literature and ethnography to fine bindings and Americana. Structure, Verses, Agency Books…
