Ērmanis, Pēteris,  Es sludinu : [dzeja] / Peters Ērmanis ; A. Prandes vāks. [Rīga] : Vaiņaga izdevums, [1920] 48 lpp. ; 18 cm.

Pēteris Ērmanis (1893–1969) – rakstnieks un literatūrvēsturnieks. Ievērojams kā viens no latviešu ekspresionisma dzejas pārstāvjiem (īpaši pirmie divi dzejoļu krājumi "Es sludinu" (1920) un "Es šaubos, es ticu"(1923)).

Tieši ar grāmatu „Es sludinu" P. Ērmanis sāka ne tikai sludināt, bet arī parādīt ekspresionistiskās dzejas paraugus. Viņa dzeja bija reti dinamiska, domu un atziņu bagāta. Pirmā pasaules kara jauno pēckara garu Ērmanis attēloja vispareizāk.

Grāmata saglabājusies ļoti labi. Nedaudz novalkātas grāmatas malas. Grāmatas tekstā dažās vietās ar zīmuli veiktas piezīmes.

Pārdod tikai kopā ar kolekciju “Avangards. Konstruktīvisms”.

Pēteris Ērmanis was considered to be the father of Latvian literary Expressionism. Ermani's collection of prose poems titled Es sludinu (I Preach, 1920) with a cover design by Alberts Prande, is a starting point for expresionist poetry. This design can be catalogized as part of Alberts Prande’s “modernism” before returning to “traditional realism''.

The poetry of Pēteris Ērmanis is dynamic, full of thoughts and insights. Ērmanis was one of those Latvian poets who most correctly portrayed the new post-war spirit after the First World War.
