Collected poems by Jo Corsen, including poems in Papiamento PRICE € 375 PURCHASE / MORE INFO View Member Profile Joseph Sickman Corsen. Poesias de J.S. Corsen Recopiladas y publicadas por unos amigos del finado autor. Nijmegen, J.K. Kloosterman, [1914]. 19,6 x 12 cm. [6], 112 pp. Original publisher’s gilt-decorated cloth. Corners and top and bottom of spine slightly worn, some wear along the edges of the boards. Overall in vey good condition. Rare first and posthumous edition of the collected poems by Jo Corsen, including three poems in Papiamento and 80 poems in Spanish. There is also a three-page introduction by Benjamin A. Jesserun. Additionally, it features Dutch and English translations of Atardi. Joseph Sickman (Jo) Corsen (1853–1911) was a poet, musician, and composer from Curaçao, known as the “Father of Papiamento Poetry.” Corsen also composed waltzes, led several orchestras and served as the organist for the Jewish community, showcasing his multifaceted talents. While he primarily wrote in Spanish—many works appeared in Notas y Letras —his legacy in the Dutch Antilles rests on his contributions to Papiamento literature. This volume brings together almost all of his poems, including three poems in Papiamento: Ata Nubia! , Roeman di Caridad , and of course Atardi , the pinnacle of Corsen’s work and the most iconic poem in the literary history of the Dutch Antilles. First published on 27 September 1905 in La Cruz , Atardi captures the melancholic beauty of twilight. As Cola Debrot wrote, “He describes the eerie atmosphere of twilight in a way that would undoubtedly have earned the approval of even the most somber existentialist” ("Hij beschrijft daarin de beangstigende atmosfeer van de schemer op een wijze die ongetwijfeld de goedkeuring van de zwaarmoedigste existentialist zou hebben weggedragen "). The present book includes a Dutch translation of Atardi by P.J. Poiesz and an English translation by G. Pinedo.

[Volkmann Zamorano80 65a, Hill 1470, Norris 3290, Howes R363 (1846)]. In 1925, Thomas C. Russell, decided to research and republish Robinson's 1846 book as part of his California history series from his private press. For this book, and the others in the series, Russell would edit and added notes to the original editions. He would make extensive pencil annotations and editing notes throughout the book for typesetting of the republished work. His notes significantly add to the rich narrative of Robinson's book and provides historic insites. In this book he refers to Robinson as a "Pioneer Californian Transportation Manager". Alfred Robinson(1806–1895), immigrated to Mexican Alta California in 1829 as an resident agent in the export of cattle hides and tallow. He became a well-connected businessman, and sympathetic to Californio society by marrying into a prominent family (de la Guerra). In this book, Robinson describes his personal activities and the politics of California under the Mexican control. He describes the history of the settlements, ranchos, and the Catholic missions. He was witness to the changes in the California economies and social structure with the increasing American and foreign immigrants and interests. He published the book in 1846 anonymously and it covered the period from 1829 to 1842. The Mexican-American war (1846-48) and the American conquest of the province had great impact to the California society along with the discovery of gold in 1848. Robinson’s book became very popular with people rushing off to California. It was reprinted a number of times in various forms and abridgments.
