For the reader of today, Odoardo Beccari’s Wanderings in the Great Forests of Borneo is of interest for three reasons: first, it provide a description of the natural environment of Borneo at a time when the impact of modern development had been barely felt; secondly, it offers an intriguing social picture of Sarawak at the close of James Brooke’s rule; and thirdly-and most important-the book stands as a vivid record of the diversity of tropical plant life seen through the eyes of a dedicated botanist.

First published in Italian in 1902, the book (which apparently, the Ranee Margaret of Sarawak persuaded Beccari to write) is based on detailed notes and diaries kept during the time of the author’s three visits to Borneo between 1865–when he was only twenty-two–and 1877.

While the narrative retains a youthful enthusiasm, it is also enriched by the reflections of later research and experience and it can be read both for pleasure and information.

“Are there any fascists in heaven mummy?

“Yes dear, but they all get turned into footballs, so you can kick them around if you want, but its best to ignore them-they probably  want to be kicked anyway”

“British style and music magazine I-D contacted Mambo in ’92 and asked if the label would be interested in supplying a graphic to be used in an anti-fascist issue that they were compiling for the summer. “Mambo House Music offering the companies dog food for thought” was how Reg interpreted their request. Mambo later decided ‘Theology’ was too good a graphic not to share with our own fascists and reproduced it locally as a poster and T-Shirt print.

“The time has come to rise up and overthrow the profligate autocrats of surfing’s discredited and desperate hierachy whose tyranny and ideology have a place only in the darkest corridors of the museums of history…”

“…We shall journey through the cold desolation of culture’s winter, hacking at the limbs of the fluoro zealots who would praise Baywatch and quote Diesel, as we crawl toward the warmth and splendour of a new spring…”

The making and understand of pattern is of especial importance in a period of increasing dependance on visual communication. Inspired by Islamic decorative pattern, the authors of this book, who are all designers, explore pattern step by step, beginning with simple numerical and geometrical relationships and progressing through the dimensions, so that the reader is drawn into a visual and conceptual game of increasing complexity, as pattern and concept develop hand in hand. The authors show how even the most complex patterns are built from simple basic structures. The reader is encourage to use change of scale and dimension creatively, to seek to interrelate ideas, and to adopt a synthesizing approach to experience in order to counteract the analytical attitude that is part of our West cultural heritage.

“The Spanish tarot fortune-telling deck is reproduced through the courtesy of Museo Fournier, Vitoria; the cards are based upon original woodcuts dating from the year 1736, first produced by Giusseppe Ottone, in the village of Serravalle Sesia, province of Vercelli, region of Liguria-Piedmontese, Italy. The back of the Spanish Tarot deck is an all-over multiple floral pattern in diamonds within a geometric design, reproducing the same back of the original pack of 1736. The Fournier Museum contains quite an important quantity of ancient packs of playing cards as well as an interesting collection of ancient Tarots.”

“It was tempting to put suitably heroic captions to these illustrations. But Costantini’s drawings are so wonderfully expressive and evocative that we have decided not to ‘gild refined gold, to paint the lily’ and left them with their original captions… the dry, indifferent or malicious comments of the press and the historians which is the way the world came to know of the deeds here portrayed…”

“Alice in Wonderland, that timeless and delightful children’s tale by Lewis Carroll, has here been lavishly illustrated by well known Australian artist Charles Blackman. Very few fully-illustrated editions of Alice have appeared since the nineteenth-century version illustrated by John Tenniel and this book is believed to be the first full-colour illustrated edition by a major artist.

The thirty-five colour painting and numerous black-and-white illustrations for the book have been carefully selected by Nadine Amadio. These paintings will make it of interest to art lovers the world over, and undoubtedly many copies will find a home among them…”
