A propos de cet article

First impression of the first edition in English. Translated from the German for the first time by H. T. Lowe-Porter. Volume One only of a two-volume publication. ***Near fine in cream textured cloth-covered boards with brown titles to the spine and front board. The boards are incredibly clean - almost as new - having been protected for the last 95 years by the dustwrapper. The extremities of the boards are just slightly creased, otherwise no discernible faults. The top edge of the page block is stained red by the publisher - now slightly marked and faded. Internally the book is also near fine, with no inscriptions. Light offsetting to the endpapers. No foxing - interior pages clean. No creases or tears. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. ***In a very good dustwrapper, which is virtually complete, with just a small chip to the top edge of the spine, hardly affecting the lettering, and with a little creasing at the top of the spine. Apart from this, the dustwrapper is complete, with just some light rubbing to the edges. No other creases, chips or tears. The spine of the dustwrapper is slightly marked and browned. The dustwrapper has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of 15s. net for the two volume set. ***188 mm x 132 mm. 369 pages. With a coloured map on the final page showing: "The Great Sea" and "The Red Sea". ***'"Joseph and His Brothers" (German: Joseph und seine Brüder, is a four-part novel by Thomas Mann, written over the course of 16 years. Mann retells the familiar stories of Genesis, from Jacob to Joseph (chapters 27–50), setting it in the historical context of the Amarna Period. Mann considered it his greatest work. The tetralogy consists of: "The Stories of Jaco"b (Die Geschichten Jaakobs; written December 1926 to October 1930, Genesis 27–36); "Young Joseph" (Der junge Joseph; written January 1931 to June 1932, Genesis 37); "Joseph in Egypt" (Joseph in Ägypten; written July 1932 to 23 August 1936, Genesis 38–39); and "Joseph the Provider" (Joseph, der Ernährer; written 10 August 1940 to 4 January 1943, Genesis 40–50) ***Thomas Mann was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1929, after he had been nominated by Anders Österling, member of the Swedish Academy, principally in recognition of his popular achievements with "Buddenbrooks" (1901), "The Magic Mountain" (Der Zauberberg, 1924), and his numerous short stories. (Wiki) ***First impression of the first edition in English of Volume One of the final book in the four-part series: "Joseph and his Brethren". Of interest to collectors of Thomas Mann first editions. Extremely uncommon in this condition. ***Please note this is Volume One only of a two-volume set. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.…
