An edition of Satanella (1932)

Satanella

an epic poem

Satanella was written in 1874 in the Czech language. The translation into English of Satanella by R. Ginsburg is "...lovingly dedicated to the cherished memory of my brother, Dr. Josef Ginsburg whose untimely death on a forgotten battlefield of war-mad Europe left an irreparable void in my life." After this dedication there is a nice photo of the poet, with his signature underneath.
Drawings are by Y. Victor Brozek. Pages 7 through 10, written in Chicago in May 1932 by John J. Reichman, PhD., J.D., are a tribute to the poet who died in 1912.
Pages 11 & 12 are a preface, written in Berwyn, Illinois by the translator, Roderick A. Ginsburg. This is followed by a Prologue, then the heart of the book, an epic love poem. The last page, #69 is the Epilogue.
Another page states that this edition "...consists of 250 Privately Printed and numbered copies of which only 200 are for sale." This book is #81, & carries an inscription prior to the title page signed by the translator.
