AVENTURAS DE TELÉMACO - Hijo de Ulyses

Francisco Salignac de La Mothe Fenelon

REF.35587

Year 1777

Madrid; D. Joachin Ibarra; In-8º of 2 volumes; Illustrated; Hardcover

Spanish translation of the famous French work Les Aventures de Télémaque, written by François de Salignac de La Mothe Fénelon, Archbishop of Cambrai. Originally published in 1699, the novel is a fictional continuation of Homer's Odyssey, focusing on the travels and moral development of Telemachus, son of Ulysses, guided by his tutor Mentor—who is actually the goddess Minerva in disguise. This Madrid edition was printed by D. Joachin Ibarra, one of the most renowned typographers in 18th-century Spain, and sponsored by the Royal Company of Printers and Booksellers of the Kingdom. This volume includes not only the main text but also additional content such as Adventures of Aristonous and an Abbreviated Dictionary, Mythological and Geographical, which complement the narrative with cultural references and mythological explanations. The work combines epic elements with moral and political teachings, reflecting the ideals of enlightened education. Fénelon wrote the text while tutoring the Duke of Burgundy, grandson of Louis XIV, with the aim of instructing him in virtues such as justice, moderation, and wisdom in government. Illustrated with full-page engravings in the extra text and a fold-out map. Copy with contemporary binding, in good overall condition.

QUEM ME DERA SER ONDA

Manuel Rui

REF.34737

Year s/d

3rdEdition

Luanda; National Institute of Books and Records; In-8th of 76(4) pages; Illustrated; Broached

Angolan work that mixes humor and social criticism. The story, apparently simple and almost childish, revolves around two children, Zeca and Ruca, and a little pig that they adopt. The plot takes place in Luanda, a few years after Angola's independence, and addresses issues such as social inequality, corruption and cultural alienation. Despite its light tone, the book is a powerful satire that reflects the challenges and changes in Angolan society at the time. He was recognized with the Agostinho Neto National Award, highlighting his literary and social relevance. Cover by Alceu Saldanha Coutinho. Copy with slight signs of handling on the paperback covers, inside in good condition.

Year 1797

Lausanne; Marc-Mic. Bousquet & Comp.; In-8th of XXXIV 224 pages; Bound

Copy with contemporary binding with slight signs of handling, core in good general condition, maintaining the sonority of the paper. It has ex-libris of possession.
