That’s what my professor said when he gifted me these books. This was after visiting him during office hours to get help on how to write my work placement report as I did not know how I needed to cite sources while writing said personal report, I also lamented about how this semester has been killing me (work wise this has been the worst by far). My report is also due the same day I have two final exams which means more pain. He said just to email him (for a written record) so he can grant me an extension because he finds that to be a valid reason.
When he presented the books I asked if they were a parting gift since after this semester we will never see each other again. He said no because even though he’s going on sabbatical that doesn’t mean he’s not working, so I’ll see him around. But I can take them as a parting gift if I wanted. So I did and headed to the library to work on my paper that’s due Friday. My backpack was practically exploding and my back is in so much pain from carrying these plus a few other books.
From volume one:
Without the sleeve:
This was found in volume one as a bookmark:
Wow those are beautiful!
Right? I was surprised and very grateful. I love seeing all the little margin notes and stuff from previous people. It also has a scan of a handwritten letter from Marx to Engels, it was very sweet.
That sounds so nice! You must be so happy. :)
