Washington, D.C.: The Associated Publishers, 1939 Written by a Professor of Anatomy at Howard University, and published by the first African- American publishing company in the US, brainchild of the “father” of Black history, Carter Woodson.

The Dunbar Speaker and Entertainer Containing the Best Prose and Poetic Selections by and About the Negro Race. 288 pp. Portrait frontispiece and several other plates from photographs. (8vo) cloth.

Nichols & Co., [1920] First printing of an early literary anthology of Black writers and poets, published at the dawn of the Harlem Renaissance and edited by the widow of poet Paul Laurence Dunbar, an author in her own right, as well as an active suffragette and political reformer. Selections from Dunbar himself, as well as William Stanley Braithwaite, James Weldon Johnson, Charles Chestnutt, W.E.B. Du Bois, Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington, Charlotte Grimke, T. Thomas Fortune – and Alexander Pushkin, the great Russian romantic poet, who was descended from an Ethiopian prince held captive in Turkey.

(African-American Children’s Literature) Floyd, Silas X. Charming Stories for Young and Old. 320 pp. (8vo) original red cloth. New edition “greatly revised and enlarged, with ABC’s Supplement by Mrs. Alice H. Howard” Washington, D.C.: Austin Jenkins Company, [1925] Though sub-titled “for young and old”, this collection of stories was clearly aimed at African- American children, for whom few books of non-racist content were written until some twenty years later. The “Negro Authors” are not identified, and it’s possible that most of the stories were written by Floyd himself, a Baptist Minister who wrote children’s stories for a variety of periodicals. This may be the first such anthology to appear, as the first edition was published in 1905 under the title “Floyd’s Flowers”, while Floyd was working as an editor of “The Voice of the Negro”, one of the earliest Black literary journals of the 20th century. Light wear and soiling to cloth; very good. (300/500) 5. (African-American) Locke, Alain. Plays of Negro Life: A Source-Book of Native American Drama. [18], 430 pp. Illustrations by Aaron Douglas. (8vo) cloth-backed boards, paper spine label. First Edition. New York: Harper & Brothers, 1927 A Harvard Ph.D. and the first African-American Rhodes Scholar, Locke is often called “the father of the Harlem Renaissance” because of his encouragement of Black writers, musicians, and artists – including Aaron Douglas, the illustrator of this book and one of the premiere Black artists of the Art Deco period. Among the selections in the anthology is Eugene O’Neill’s “Emperor Jones”, with a photograph of Paul Robeson in the starring role. Binding worn and soiled, abrasion to front board, hinges cracked, gift inscriptions on front free endpaper; good. (150/250) 6. (African-American) Seventy Years of Service: New Orleans University. 106 pp. (8vo) original blue cloth. First Edition. New Orleans: Published by the Faculty, 1935 Scarce history of one of the first Historically-Black Colleges in America, originally founded as a Bible Institute in New Orleans after the Civil War by the Freedmen’s Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church. After its “seventy years of service”, this was the College’s last publication before it merged into the present-day Dillard University. Light wear, lower corners bumped; very good. (200/300) 7.

Like so many well-entrenched, traditional as- sumptions, this one is unwarranted. J. Evetts Haley, in editing one of the extremely rare accounts of the cattle drives to Califor- nia which preceded the Texas-to-Kansas experiment by a decade and a half, slapped the blame for this misunderstanding squarely on the writings of Emerson Hough.

Goizueta, Ph.D. Committee Member ii ABSTRACT HONOR AND CARITAS: BARTOLOMÉ DE LAS CASAS, SOLDIERS OF FORTUNE, AND THE CONQUEST OF THE AMERICAS Name: Costello, Damian Matthew University of Dayton Advisor: Dr. William L. Portier This dissertation - a postcolonial re-examination of Bartolomé de las Casas, the 16th century Spanish priest often called “The Protector of the Indians” - is a conversation between three primary components: a biography of Las Casas, an interdisciplinary history of the conquest of the Americas and early Latin America, and an analysis of the Spanish debate over the morality of Spanish colonialism. The work adds two new theses to the scholarship of Las Casas: a reassessment of the process of Spanish expansion and the nature of Las Casas’s opposition to it. The first thesis challenges the dominant paradigm of 16th century Spanish colonialism, which tends to explain conquest as the result of perceived religious and racial difference; that is, Spanish conquistadors turned to military force as a means of imposing Spanish civilization and Christianity on heathen Indians.
