Sulamith, Wieland Herzfelde. Berlin: Heinz Barger, 1917. German. First edition.
The first book by Wieland Herzfelde, an important publisher and poet from Berlin, founder of the Der Malik publishing house and the Neue Jugend magazine; brother of the artist John Heartfield (Helmut Herzfeld).
Numbered copy, 129/200, signed by Herzfelde on colophon. The silvered decoration on the binding is by George Grosz.
The book was actually published by Der Malik, though on the title page the publisher is called "Heinz Barger Verlag". Heinz Barger was the former owner of Neue Jugend, and Herzfelde, who bought the magazine from him, used his name due to legal restrictions on opening new publishing houses during World War I.
Der Malik publishing house was active in Berlin from 1916 to 1933. During the Nazi period it moved its activities to Prague, London and later New York. The publisher took a modernist aesthetic line and published innovative writers and artists, giving voice to harsh criticism of German society and politics. Among the artists who published their works with Der Malik were George Gross and Bertolt Brecht.
[18] pp., 27 cm. Good condition. Vellum spine. Slight wear to binding.
