HELLAS: A Spectacle with Music and Dances in Four Acts.
Cape Town: The Stourton Press, 1951. FIRST EDITION. Bookplate of Alexander D'Agapeyeff (known for the undecipherable cipher); Very Good+ Cloth Volume in nice dust jacket, with light stain along lower edge of rear panel. Very scarce, like many of Fairfax Hall's press works, which centered around the Fourth Way. He adopted an unusual style for this book, being a ruled page in the traditional proportion, 1, 2, 3, 4. This play, cast in backdrop of the Eleusinian Mysteries, offers vivid descriptions of certain dance movements, as well as focusing on the eternal recurrence of gods and men, one of Ouspensky's core themes. 138 pages. Octavo. Item #19352
