1st. edition. gr. 8°. 35 pages. OBroschur, good condition. Sprache: Englisch, with 12 Plates. ---------------- Percy Wyndham Lewis (* 18. November 1882 auf See vor Neuschottland; gest. 7. März 1957 in London) britischer Schriftsteller und Maler. Wyndham Lewis war Mitbegründer des Vortizismus und Herausgeber der Zeitschrift Blast. Er besuchte die Rugby School in England, anschließend die Kunsthochschule Slade in London; beider Schulen wurde er verwiesen. Im Anschluss reiste er durch Europa und studierte dann für einige Zeit Kunst in Paris. Seinen typische Mal- und Zeichenstil entwickelte er ab 1913. Sein Freund Ezra Pound prägte dafür den Ausdruck Vortizismus. Es handelt sich dabei um einen Stil, der stark von Kubismus beeinflusst ist, aber in seiner Dynamik eindeutig dem italienischen Futurismus nahesteht. 1914/15 war er Herausgeber und wichtigster Autor der Literaturzeitschrift Blast.…

Contains 8 pp colour illustrations, no text, just the illustrations. In Very Good condition. Blast was the short-lived literary magazine of the Vorticist movement in Britain. Two editions were published: the first on 2 July 1914 (dated 20 June 1914, but publication was delayed) and featured a bright pink cover, referred to by Ezra Pound as the "great MAGENTA cover'd opusculus"; and the second a year later on 15 July 1915. Both editions were written primarily by Wyndham Lewis. The magazine is emblematic of the modern art movement in England, and recognised as a seminal text of pre-war 20th-century modernism and originally cost 2/6. Member of the P.B.F.A. ART [British].…

Wyndham's entry in the Oxford DNB states that the family estate was 'some 4000 acres in Wiltshire'. Milford (1829-1913) was his rector at East Knoyle, and the letters inform him about arrangements for the funeral of Wyndham's father Percy Scawen Wyndham (1835-1911). Both items in good condition, lightly aged, and folded for postage. Each addressed to 'My dear Canon Milford' and signed 'George Wyndham.' ONE: 14 March 1911. 3pp, 12mo. Bifolium. Begins: 'I have found a written permission from my Father to have the Funeral - committal to the erth - where I think best. He desired the first part of the service to be in any case at East Knoyle.' He accepts Milford's proposal regarding the position of his father's grave, and would like to take 'enough space' for 'us all being buried there in process of time'. The letter concludes with details of the time of the funeral and a 'special train' he is laying on 'from Salisbury at 12.35, in connextion with the fast train from Waterloo at 11. a.m. which reaches Salisbury at 12.31.' TWO: 5pp, 12mo. On two bifoliums. 'My dear Father left me a written expression of his wishes in respect of Hymns. / He does not [last word underlined twice] wish the Hymn 'Now the labourers task is o'er' to be sung. / He does wish for Hymn 608 "God of the Living and the Dead," in the supplemental Hymns of Ancient & Modern. If this is not procurable I will telegraph for some copies today.' His wife Sibell is conveying the note, '& I could not wish for anything better than that she should arrange the service with you.' He is bringing back his 'dear Father's ashes' the following evening, '&, if it is possible, would like to put them in the coffin, & to put the coffin in the Church tomorrow night'. He describes his plans for the day, with an 'Early Service for us at 8.30 a.m. on Saturday morning', after which 'We would go straight to the church for the Funeral service & take our places in good time, so as to being punctually at 1.45. After the first part of the service the coffin would be borne to the new Church yard for interment.' He gives details of the orientation he has chosen for the coffin, 'pointing straight at the Church', and gives his reasons for departing from usual practice, ending with his plan to 'build a low wall of green sandstone, 3 feet high & plant a high hedge of cut yew trees behind it as a background'. …

4pp., 4to. In fair condition, on lightly-aged paper, with short closed tears at heads of both leaves. The recipient is not named, but the letter is from the Lynd family papers. Robert Lynd was in St Ives at the time of writing, and the letter begins: 'I'm so glad you are in such a nice place & that the children can join you there. They will love it. London gets so odious by the 15th of July. I came her e last week as I was very tired, & sick of the stuffy feeling of everything. The children enjoy it all thoroughly.' She describes her daughter Anne (for whom see the Oxford DNB) as 'a fat object now with a brick-red nose so is not so attractive to the casual observer, but to my anxious mind quite ideal from the health point of view.' She is sending Lynd's 'picture show card to [her husband] Rolfe', whose holiday plans she explains. The rest of the letter contains references to 'Raspberries & cream', 'Ivy Low' (Anglo-Russian author and translator Ivy Therese Low Litvinov), Wyndham Lewis (who 'came to tea with me after the party though, & I liked him. He is great fun.'), 'MIss Charlotte Mew' ('who, I believe, used to write for the Yellow Book, but no one took any notice of her'. She would like to show Lynd her 'part of Dorset [.] near Sturminster Newton. An old house with secret passages & a secret room in the chimney where a skeleto was found!' She announces that they are 'going to have an orgy at Rottingdean on Ssunday to celebrate [her other daughter] Marie's Eighth birthday!' She concludes with a reference to a novel, adding: 'Will you read Mary Crosbie's new one? Aren't vicarage teas awful!' In a postscript she writes: 'The Editor & Proprietor of the N[ew]. W[eekly]. do not like Ivy Low; but the latter said Mrs. Lynd [the writer Sylvia Lynd] had one of the nicest faces he had seen for ages! I don't know why Ivy Low seems to rouse so much antagonism. I think one can't forgive her for being such friends with W. L[loyd] George!'.…
