Synopsis
Handwriting works magic: it transports us back to defining moments in history, creativity, and everyday life and connects us intimately with the people who marked the page. For nearly half a century, Brazilian author and publisher Pedro Corrêa do Lago has been assembling one of the most comprehensive autograph collections of our era, acquiring thousands of handwritten letters, manuscripts, and musical compositions as well as inscribed photographs, documents, and drawings. From an 1153 parchment signed by four medieval popes to a 2006 thumbprint signature by physicist Stephen Hawking, the items illustrated here span nearly nine hundred years, and along the way bring us up close and personal with writers, artists, composers, political figures, performers, explorers, scientists, philosophers, and rebels whose actions and creations have made them legends. Rather than focusing on a single era or subject, Corrêa do Lago made the ambitious decision to seek important autographs in eight broad areas of human endeavor-art, history, literature, science, music, philosophy, exploration, and entertainment. The 140 extraordinary selections gathered in this book-displayed for the first time in a major exhibition at New York's Morgan Library and Museum-include letters by Lucrezia Borgia, Vincent van Gogh, and Emily Dickinson, annotated sketches by Michelangelo, Jean Cocteau, and Charlie Chaplin, and manuscripts by Giacomo Puccini, Jorge Luis Borges, and Marcel Proust. Handwriting is one of the most visceral means by which we leave tracks of our existence. At a time when so much of our communication has become utterly immaterial, this collection conveys the power of the pen to illuminate the energy, passion, vulnerability, and imagination of humankind across the ages., Handwriting works magic: it transports us back to defining moments in history, creativity, and everyday life and connects us intimately with the people who marked the page.

- e***e (136)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI bought 2 lots of books from this seller; both were shipped in the same box, so I'll just repeat the feedback I left for the other half of the order: Superb packaging! I've been collecting old paperbacks for ... well, a long time, and these were the best-wrapped, best protected, best shipped box 'o books I've ever received! The books themselves were exactly as described in the photos, and the per-book value (using the advanced mathematics formula: total price / no. of books) was wonderfulJohn Dickson Carr Lot of 11 Paperback Books Mystery Crime with Dark Of The Moon (Nr. 297223970215)
- 2***f (311)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe listing was accurate with clear photos. The book was carefully wrapped. For the price, it's in good shape. I intend on reading it rather than just collecting or selling. Thanks for the eBay coupon. The issue I had was USPS's media shipping, something Lola Rose Books has no control over. This item left LRB (New Mexico) on Aug. 8. From there, it went to Albuquerque, Jersey City, Richmond, Newport News, Richmond, Norfolk, VA Beach, Richmond, Norfolk, and back to VB on Aug. 19.
- e***t (432)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI love to collect vintage paperbacks, and have been looking for this title for awhile. I thought it was an excellent find, at a good value. The seller shipped the book on time, and packaged it in a way to protect it in the shipping process. When it arrived, it was exactly as described in the listing. I would highly recommend this seller to others!
