  • Incunabula and Sixteenth Century Imprints
    Incunabula and Sixteenth Century Imprints FREDERICK R. GOFF THEWISE preacher in the Book of Ecclesiastes in- formed his listeners that “Of the making of many books there is no end.” If this was true in early Biblical times, one can only imagine what this learned gentleman’s appalled reaction would be to the pro- digious and continuous outpouring from the contemporary press. No one will ever be able to estimate the number of books that have been produced since those anonymous pressmen, working for Gutenberg, commenced to pull sheets from the presses he had constructed for his first printing office. It is possible, however, to estimate in rough fash- ion the number of books, pamphlets, and broadsides that issued dur- ing the period of incunabular printing that, with some questionable exceptions, ended with the commencement of the year 1501. There is valid evidence to support an estimate of upwards of 40,000 editions that were printed on the earliest European presses at work during the first fifty years after the invention of printing with movable metal types. If, as we have reason to believe, the average number of copies produced in a fifteenth-century edition was 500, these early printers were responsible for placing in circulation approximately 20,000,000 books, pamphlets, and broadsides. There are no accurate statistics to determine how many of this original estimate survive today, but it is a matter of record that ac- cording to the statistical survey made during the compilation of the Third Census of Zncunabula in American Libraries, compiled and edited by this writer, and published by the Bibliographical Society of America in 1964 (New York), 47,188 copies of 12,599 editions were recorded in American ownership, How many other copies of incunabula have survived is a matter of interesting speculation.

  • 2006 Another Remarkable Year for the National Library 29 December 2006: 2006 Was Another Remarkable Year for the National Library of Ireland
    2006 another remarkable year for the National Library 29 December 2006: 2006 was another remarkable year for the National Library of Ireland. Signal events included the opening of a major exhibition on the life and work of WB Yeats; the acquisition of several major literary archives and photographic collections; an official visit by Her Majesty Queen Sonja of Norway; a major award for the Library’s Yeats exhibition at a ceremony held in Bristol; a first prize win at the Irish Design Effectiveness Awards (IDEA) for the 1916 online exhibition. In May, John O’Donoghue, TD, Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism opened Yeats: the life and works of William Butler Yeats which explores WB Yeats’ literary and cultural legacy and features manuscripts from the Library’s Yeats collection, the world’s most important archive of Yeats material. The exhibition continues until the end of 2008. Throughout 2006 the Library continued to host its popular ‘Library Late’ series of monthly public interviews with critically acclaimed writers. The featured writers this year included Patrick McCabe, Frank McGuinness, Andrew O’Hagan, Colum McCann, Anne Enright, Eavan Boland, Joseph O’Connor, John Connolly, John Boyne, Claire Kilroy and Bernard Mac Laverty. Centenary celebrations of major literary figures 2006 marked the international centenaries of two major literary figures – Norwegian poet and playwright Henrik Ibsen and Samuel Beckett. In March, the National Library was one of a number of cultural institutions, nationally and internationally, which marked the 100th anniversary of Samuel Beckett’s birth. The Centenary Shadows exhibition, which was held at the National Photographic Archive, featured some 40 photographs, including many portraits of Beckett taken by the Irish photographer John Minihan.

  • BUSINESSMAN Can't Take It with You the Art of Making and Giving
    ffirs.qxd 2/25/04 9:36 AM Page i Praise for Can’t Take It with You “Lewis Cullman is one of this nation’s major and most generous philanthro- pists. Here he combines a fascinating autobiography of a life in finance with a powerful exposé of how the business of giving works, including some tips for all of us on how to leverage our money to enlarge our largess.” —Walter Cronkite “Lewis Cullman has woven a rich and seamless fabric from the varied strands of his business, philanthropic, and personal life. Every chapter is filled with wonderful insights and amusing anecdotes that illuminate a life that has been very well lived. This book has been written with an honesty and candor that should serve as a model for others.” —David Rockefeller “An extraordinary look at the accomplishments of a pioneer in finance. Cullman has approached his role as a philanthropist with vigor and presents a powerful argument for reform among private foundations.” —George Soros Chairman, Soros Fund Management “I was so enjoyably exhausted after reading the book—I can only imagine liv- ing the life! It seems there is no good cause that Lewis has not supported, no good business opportunity that Lewis has missed, and no fun that Lewis has not had.” —Agnes Gund President Emerita, The Museum of Modern Art “Now I know that venture capitalism and horse trading are almost as much fun as looking for new species in the Amazon. This book is exceptionally well written. The prose is evocative, vibrant, and inspirational.” —Edward O.

SUPPORT CONNECT AMPLIFY RENEW We support humanistic knowledge by making resources available to scholars and by strengthening the infrastructure for scholarship at the level of the individual scholar, the department, the institution, the learned society, and the national and international network. We work in collaboration with member societies, institutions of higher education, scholars, students, foundations, and the public. We seek out and support new and emerging organizations that share our mission. We commit to expanding the forms, content, and flow of scholarly knowledge because we value diversity of identity and experience, the free play of intellectual curiosity, and the spirit of exploration—and above all, because we view humanistic understanding as crucially necessary to prototyping better futures for humanity. It is a public good that should serve the interests of a diverse public. We see humanistic knowledge in paradoxical circumstances: at once central to human flourishing while also fighting for greater recognition in the public eye and, increasingly, in institutions of higher education.

  • The Love Triangle in Harold Pinter
    PINTER 'S T\vO LOVES OF Cm11FORT AND DESPA I R n~o LOVES OF COMFORT AND DESPAIR: THE LOVE TRIANGLE IN HAROLD PINTER By ROBERT JOHN MOORE, B.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfi Iment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts McMaster Un i vers i ty November, 1978 MASTER OF ARTS (1978) Md1ASTER UN I VERS I TY (Eng Ii sh) Hami Iton, Ontario TITLE: TVlo Loves of Comfort and Oespa i r: The Love Tr i ang I e in Harold Pinter AUTHOR: Robert John Moore, B. A. (Md,1aster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. A. S. Brennan NUMBER OF PAGES: 98 i i ABSTRACT Using the poem "Afternoon", an early sketch, Dialogue for Three and a late play, Monologue, as a basis for discussion, this thesis attempts to locate the essential core relationship that lies at the heart, not only of the above three works, but the whole range of Pinter's work. The core relationship or pattern upon which Pinter's drama is arranged is revealed as a love triangle. Once we have isolated the triangle it is possible to identify the various corners of the triangle using both the symbol ic vocabulary Pinter provides in the dichotomy between light and dark, betltJeen b Ii ndness and potence and the psychoanalytic terms, ego and id, which correspond exactly to the corners of light and dark, respectively. The Pinter protagonist is typically confronted with tltlO psycho­ sexual alternatives~ one in the guise of a guardian and the other in the guise of a thief.
