Sobre este artículo
Amsterdam: Menno Hertzberger & Co, 1967. First edition. Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. 218 p. First edition, limited to 100 copies printed for private distribution. This collection was described by Lawrence Clark Powell, who helped arrange for its publication, as containing "erudite discussions of Oriental and European philosophy, explicitly footnoted, and was apparently written years before when Brent was undertaking an unfinished Columbia University doctorate in philosophy. What was really unexpected is the inclusion of a short four-act play, a searching morality on adulterous love." Presentation copy, inscribed by Brent to esteemed Southern California historian Doyce B. Nunis, Jr. on the front flyleaf. Octavo. Original green cloth binding, with gilt titles. The dust jacket is a trifle tanned along the spine and folds; else very good or better. Inscribed by Author.
