Kropotkin, Petr Alezseevich, Prince Two autograph letters signed, P. Kropotkin, in English to William Bury Westall, discussing his trial and imprisonment in France, his own and Westall's writings, and Germinal, Lyon, Maison d'Arrêt, and Clairvaux, Maison Centrale, 22 January 1883 and 28 April 1885, 11 pages, 8vo, creasing, minor nicks (2) Note: These two letters by the great Russian Anarchist philosopher were written during his imprisonment in France (1883-6), to his friend the novelist and journalist William Westall (1834-1903). In the first, written shortly after his conviction, he rails against the French judicial and penal systems, but also takes the opportunity to praise Westall's novel Red Ryvington. He discusses the character of Kaluza, in which I have recognised much of your humble servant, but too sympathetic to say that it were a portrait and not the creation of an artist, and praises Westall's understanding of the Russian character: you have painted a purely Russian character - what none of foreign writers had never happened to do [sic]. Kropotkin's second letter includes a substantial discussion of Zola's recently-published Germinal: It is a striking but exceedingly accurate picture of the miners' life ... His sympathies are all with the miners, and against the exploiters. Remarkably enough, his conclusions are as radical as those of the most advanced Anarchist.

Aquinas, Thomas, Saint Prima [prima secunda, secunda secundae, tertia pars] operum [i.e. the Summa theological].

With the commentaries of Cardinal Tommaso de Vio Gaetani Cajetan (1469-1534). In theology Cajetan is justly ranked as one of the foremost defenders and exponents of the Thomistic school. His commentaries on the Summa Theologica, the first in that extensive field, begun in 1507 and finished in 1522, are his greatest work and were speedily recognized as a classic in Scholastic literature. The work is primarily a defence of St. Thomas against the attacks of Scotus. In the third part it reviews the aberrations of the Reformers, especially Luther. The important relation between Cajetan and the Angelic Doctor was emphasized by Leo XIII, when by his Pontifical Letters of 15 October, 1879, he ordered the former's commentaries and those of Ferrariensis to be incorporated with the text of the Summa in the official Leonine edition of the complete works of St. Thomas.
