MANDEL’SHTAM, Osip Emilievich (1891-1938). Kamen’. Stikhi. [The Stone. Poems]. Petrograd: Giperborei, 1916. The second, enlarged edition – in the original wrappers. Published in late 1915, but with an incorrect imprint date on the title, it is nearly three times as long as the first, adding 43 poems to the original 23. The publication of Kamen’ is considered the true start of Mandel’shtam’s career. Distancing itself from Symbolism, it struck readers for ‘the hard realities reflected in both the title […] and the subject of the poems, […] and also by the precision of the images and language’ (Martin). Not in Kilgour. R. Eden Martin, ‘Collecting Mandel’shtam’, Caxtonian , 24 (2006), pp. 5-6. Octavo (215 x 160mm). (Uniform slight age browning, somewhat spotted, half-title strengthened at gutter, the odd mark in pencil or ink). In the original wrappers (edges minimally sunned or rubbed).
