A valuable set. Sm. 4to.25 cm. Noel Alexandre or Alexander Natalis 1639-1724 was a French historian and theologian of the Order of St. Dominic who studied philosophy and theology in the convent of Saint Jacques Paris where he taught for twelve years obtained the licentiate from the Sorbonne and in 1675 the doctorate and was urged to write a complete history of the church the first volume appearing in 1677. “His directness and conciseness his critical acumen and his manner of viewing history and dividing it into special studies then quite original although now common enough won for him the approbation of the learned. The first volumes of the history brought him letters of commendation and praise from Pope Innocent XI and many cardinals but later volumes gave offense at Rome because of the author's Gallicism and Innocent XI finally forbade the faithful to read .it" Cath.Ency. Alexandre corrected the work in the third edition. Constantino Roncaglia brought out a sixth edition unaltered but with the addition of paragraphs and dissertations correcting the most offensive statements. The work was thus removed from the Index by Pope Benedict XIII. The edition offered here is the best and most complete edited by Giovan Domenico Mansi who added many explanatory notes. An anonymous writer in two supplementary volumes also included here carried the history into the eighteenth century and added various dissertations from other historians. The work thus completed appeared at Venice in 1778 in eleven folio volumes and at Bingen 1785-91 in twenty volumes. Brunet I 169. G. C. Voigt hardcover
1925W1914New York: Unpublished 1925. Original photograph by the Australian-American photographer Anton Bruehl 1900-1982. A vintage circa 1925 gelatin silver print mounted on cardstock. 7 1/2 inches by 5 1/2 inches. The photograph is unsigned but the composition of the still-life photo clearly is Bruehl's. From the same collection we have a signed photo that matches the size backing and printing of this one. In 1919 the Australian born Bruehl along with his brother and parents emigrated to the United States where he worked for Western Electric as an electrical engineer until an exhibition of Clarence H. White's photographs persuaded him to change professions. In 1924 he enrolled in White's photography school and by the next year was hired to teach in the school. In a 1976 article for Image magazine landscape photographer Joe Deal observed that "Anton Bruehl's background in engineering and love of machine forms in combination with his training under Clarence White resulted in still life photographs which give the satisfaction of well-resolved formal problems and portraits choreographed with the rhythm and movement characteristic of the age." The early photograph offered here already displays the combination of formalism with inventiveness that was characteristic of Breuhl's later color photographs for Vogue and Vanity Fair. It is easy to imagine that photographs like this one were responsible for Ansel Adams' observation that Bruehl's work was "entirely contrived and yet absolutely sincere." Bruehl's early black and white still-life photographs are much more scarce than his later color images and they seldom come on the market. The photograph is clean and bright with 3 crease lines that were probably made when the photo was affixed to the backing. The verso of the backing has some old glue stains. First Edition. Single Sheet. Very Good. Illus. by Anton Bruehl. 7 1/2" X 5 1/2". Photo. Unpublished

1832177879Paris: Baudry's Foreign Library & 5 others in Paris 1832-33. An early continental edition of Byron's collected poetry bound uniformly with two biographical volumes edited by his friend Thomas Moore. Both works were published by the notable Parisian publisher of pirated English-language works Louis-Claude Baudry 1793-1853. Baudry's Foreign Library preceded by decades the Tauchnitz editions of English books sold on the continent from 1841. As multiple agents held the British copyright for different Byron poems contemporary authorized editions of his collected works were often found less complete than their continental counterparts. European publishers "who were not bound by British intellectual property laws were soon producing attractive multi-volume editions which were not only cheaper but textually more complete than anything available at home" St Clair p. 294. As such they were often purchased by British individuals book clubs and circulating libraries. Two works in 6 vols octavo 210 x 127 mm. Engraved portrait frontispieces in the first vol. of both works other vols bound without frontispieces as usual. Contemporary brown morocco spines with raised bands lettered in gilt compartments elaborately decorated in gilt triple gilt fillet to boards gilt inner dentelles cream coated endpapers gilt edges red bookmarkers. Bindings well-preserved with minor corner wear and faint marks to boards contents foxed and occasionally toned. A very good set.

On trouve sur la page de titre un résumé du contenu de l’ouvrage elle servait comme la quatrième de couverture dans les livres aujourd’hui à la promotion du document et visait à convaincre rapidement tout acquéreur potentiel de l’intérêt exceptionnel de son contenu et du bien fondé d’investir une somme conséquente pour son achat.Le dictionnaire de Noël Chomel a servi d’outil de travail à Diderot il s’inscrit comme le rappelle Marie Leca-Tsiomis: « dans ce vaste mouvement de lexicalisation et de mise en ordre alphabétique du savoir qui du XVIIe siècle à l’Encyclopédie et à ses multiples épigones marque « l’âge des dictionnaires » .Le tome premier débute avec un article dans lequel Chomel expose les recettes des six remèdes pour arriver à un grand âge pour cela il conseille l’usage de pilules de macrobes et précise: « Ce mot vient du grec qui est comme si l’on disait longue vie car par l’usage de ce remède … on vit un siècle ». Les autres remèdes sont : le sirop de vie le bouillon rouge la tisane de Sieur Sainte Catherine l’or potable de l’Italien ainsi que l’usage de purgations lavements et saignées. Le volume se termine à la lettre « L » avec une rubrique sur la Luzerne sa culture et la manière de détruire les animaux qui lui sont nuisibles. Le tome second poursuit avec un article sur le « Maceron » Smyrnium olusatrum une plante herbacée et se termine à la lettre Y avec la recette pour guérir le mal des yeux.Ce dictionnaire de l’économie domestique traite des différentes activités liées à la gestion d’une maison d’un domaine. Comme l’indique Isabelle Turcan : « la vaste envergure des contenus de ce dictionnaire est à l’image des activités de la campagne et de l’artisanat sous l’Ancien Régime mais pas seulement de celles des petites classes de la société contrairement à ce qu’affiche l’auteur soucieux de se donner comme objectif prioritaire l’aide aux pauvres gens. … une bonne partie des contenus va au-delà de l’économie domestique pour toucher aux règles de la vie communautaire au domaine religieux et à la « gestion des ressources humaines » pour utiliser la formule consacrée de nos jours. ».L’ouvrage comporte des figures gravées sur bois insérées dans le texte auxquelles s’ajoutent plusieurs planches pleine page hors texte. Les planches servent essentiellement à expliquer les différentes techniques pour chasser et capturer les animaux et se débarrasser des nuisibles.omplété et renommé et connut plusieurs rééditions entre 1718 et 1777.
