JOAQUIM DE VASCONCELLOS

O FAUSTO DE CASTILHO julgado pelo elogio-mutuo

Joaquim de Vasconcellos

REF.36594

Year 1873

1stEdition

Porto; Imprensa Portugueza; In-8º of 71(5) pages; Hardcover

This is one of the most forceful texts of the so-called "Faust Question," triggered by the publication, in 1872, of António Feliciano de Castilho's translation of Goethe's Faust.

This work gathers and critically comments on the articles and assessments favorable to Castilho's translation, seeking to demonstrate its weaknesses and, above all, the lack of knowledge of the German language on the part of some of its defenders.

An important testimony to the heated literary and intellectual polemics of 19th-century Portugal, the book also highlights Joaquim de Vasconcellos's intervention in the renewal of Germanic studies and Portuguese literary criticism. Due to the polemical nature of the work and the authors and issues involved, it constitutes a relevant piece for the study of 19th-century Portuguese literature and the famous controversy surrounding the translation of Goethe.

Copy with solid binding, preserving both paperback covers, interior with occasional acid stains. Dedication at the top of the paperback cover.

CATALOGO DA LIVRARIA DE MUSICA D´EL-REY D. JOÃO IV

Joaquim de Vasconcellos

REF.35875

Year 1874

2ndEdition

Porto; Imprensa Portugueza; In-4º of 2 volumes with 525(7) and 368(2) pages; Bound

Originally published in 1649, this work is one of the most important documents in the history of music in Portugal and in European musical bibliography. It is an inventory of the extraordinary musical library assembled by D. João IV (1604-1656), King of Portugal, who was not only a monarch but also a great music lover and patron of music.

The catalog lists thousands of musical works, including theoretical treatises, sacred and secular scores, polyphonic compositions, and collections of plainchant, bringing together Portuguese and foreign authors. Among the names mentioned are central figures of Renaissance and Baroque music, such as Palestrina, Lassus, Victoria, and many others, as well as Portuguese composers of the time.
This second edition, published by Vasconcelos in Porto through the Portuguese Press, is a critical and annotated edition of the original 1649 catalog. His work was fundamental because it recovered and disseminated a very rare document, allowing scholars of Portuguese and European music to access the inventory of the famous musical library of King John IV.
This edition did not simply transcribe the catalog: Vasconcelos added explanatory notes, historical references, and comments on the listed authors and works, making it an indispensable source for the history of music in Portugal. It was thanks to this publication that many researchers were able to learn about the size of the king's musical library, since a large part of the originals were lost in the 1755 earthquake.
Copies with half-French binding, in good general condition.

A REFORMA DO ENSINO DE BELLAS-ARTES (3 tomos)

Joaquim de Vasconcellos

REF.35596

Year 1877/79

1stEdition

Porto; Imprensa Litterario-Commercial - Imprensa Internacional; In-8º of 3 volumes in 1 volume; Bound

A rare complete set of the three issues of this fundamental work for understanding the state and challenges of art education in Portugal in the 19th century. It is a critical and proactive analysis of drawing and fine arts education, accompanied by a general organizational plan for schools and collections dedicated to art education, with their respective budgets. Vasconcelos proposes a profound reform, focusing on pedagogical modernization, valuing students' technical and aesthetic training, and creating more effective institutional structures. The work arose from the discontinuation of the magazine O Ensino, where the texts were originally published, and was collected in a single volume by Imprensa Internacional, in Porto. This copy contains all three issues bound in a single volume, preserving the paperback covers of the first and third, showing signs of use. The pages are in good condition.
