Jacob Schwartz

Jacob SchwartzDentist and bookseller. Born in Brooklyn, Schwartz studied to be a dentist. After a short time in the profession he turned to the rare book and manuscript business. One of the first to recognize the market potential for letters and manuscripts of Modernist writers, by 1929 he began buying JJ's books and, when available, letters. By 1930 he had founded the Ulysses Bookshop in London and published limited editions of JJ's James Clarence Mangan and Ibsen's New Drama. Schwartz's transactions formed the basis for several American JJ collections, most notably the T. E. Hanley collection which went to the Ransom Center at the University of Texas in 1958. Both Gorman and Ellmann relied upon Schwartz for their biographies of JJ. William Brockman

Jacob Schwartz，一位牙医兼书商。出生于布鲁克林，Schwartz曾接受牙医专业培训。在短暂从事该职业后，他转向了珍稀书籍及手稿交易领域。作为最早认识到现代主义作家书信及手稿市场潜力的人之一，至1929年，他开始购买J.J.的书籍，并在条件允许的情况下购买其书信。到了1930年，他在伦敦创立了Ulysses书店，并出版了J.J.的《詹姆斯·克拉伦斯·曼根》和易卜生的《新戏剧》的限量版。Schwartz的交易活动构成了数个美国J.J.收藏的基础，其中最著名的是1958年转至德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校兰萨姆中心的T.E. Hanley收藏。戈尔曼（Gorman）和埃勒曼（Ellmann）在撰写J.J.的传记时，均依赖于Schwartz提供的信息。威廉·布罗克曼（William Brockman）
