1731S13115Lugduni Batavorum:: Joan. et Herm. Verbeek 1731. 1731. Two parts bound as one. 4to. xvi xlviii vii 193 1; 192 xiv pp. Title printed in red & black 32 engraved folding plates 1 folding table index; margin of p.99 trimmed 1 Â¾ x 2" away. some foxing browning of leaves title very browned due to offsetting. Beautifully preserved original mottled calf raised bands gilt spine compartments red leather spine label. Ownership mark on title of "Mr. Al. Liotard." Very good. FIRST EDITION incorporating the first Latin edition of the Saggi di naturali esperienze 1667 prepared by the Accademia del Cimento Florence with substantial additions throughout by Musschenbroek. Musschenbroek was one of the great physical experimenters and lecturers of the eighteenth century and the teacher of Nollet. This book contains the first description of the pyrometer an instrument for measuring the expansion of solid bodies under the influence of heat. Like many of Musschenbroek's books the Tentamina contains fine illustrations and is concerned with experiments in measuring humidity magnets and electricity air pressure the structure of ice heat and cold capillarity optics the motion of sound etc. / "He devised many of his experiments in the process consulting records of other experimenters among them those of the Accademia del Cimento. Musschenbroek translated their accounts into Latin adding reports concerning his own work 1731." :: Encyclopedia. / The work opens with Musschenbroek's Oratio de Methodo Instituendi Experimenta Physica regarding his views on experimental philosophy as inspired by Newton. "Underlying Musschenbroek's lectures demonstrated with experiments was the experimental philosophy the principal source of inspiration was Newton but Galileo Torricelli Huygens Reaumur and others were important to this school." :: DSB IX p. 596. The Accademia del Cimento Academy of Experiments was founded in Florence in 1657. Among the founding members were Borelli Steno Redi Cassini Viviani and Torricelli these final two being disciples of Galileo. This makes the Accademia older than either the Royal Society or the Academie des Sciences. Count Lorenzo Magalotti's text includes accounts of experiments on temperature and air pressure including Torricelli's invention of the barometer the velocity of sound and light phosphorescence magnetism amber and other electrical bodies the freezing of water etc. The many fine plates in this translation illustrate the Accademia's work as well as Musschenbroek's own subsequent experiments. :: Wolf History of science I pp. 55-59.2 parts in 1. / Musschenbroek 1692-1761 professor of natural philosophy and mathematics at Utrecht and later professor of experimental physics at Leyden. He was one of the most celebrated physicists and investigators of his time; the experiments he describes are classics in primary instruction. / "Musschenbroek's earliest account of electricity 1731 the estimable notes to his Latin translation of the Saggi is fuller more circumspect and less coherent than 's Gravesande's which he later entertained favorably. Two curious points emerge from the notes. To resolve the discrepancy between the results of Boyle and Hauksbee who respectively did and did not succeed in generating electricity in vacuo Musschenbroek hit on an unprecedented and prescient idea; remarking that Boyle used amber and Hauksbee glass he concluded that these substances have different electricities. . . The second point concerns repulsion. Musschenbroek records without emphasizing Hauksbee's observation that light bodies are sometimes repelled farther than they are attracted; he squeezes it into a note that also gives an excellent prescription for rubbing the tube :: always end with your hands together :: and a warning about atmospheric humidity. He does not recognize that the Saggi require updating about repulsion and concentrates on the perplexing behavior of screens the opacity of muslin and the transparency of glass." :: J. L. Heilbron Electricity in the 17th and 18th Centuries: A Study of Early Modern Physics 1979 p.242. / Wheeler Gift 276. Not in Bakken.

La Vita di Pietro Aretino

17411352First edition of Mazzuchelli's biography of the infamous poet Pietro Aretino 1492-1556 known as the 'scourge of princes'. Aretino's satirical sonnets and burlesques were so feared by the nobles and princes of his day that they appear to have handed out large sums of money to buy his silence. This so-called patronage funded a notoriously profligate lifestyle and his home in Venice where he went having been banished from his home town of Arezzo on the publication of his sonnet against indulgences became the scene of continuous revelling and orgies. The preface pp. iii-viii is supplied by A.F. Seghezzi. Giuseppe Bartoli's letter to Mazzuchelli on the subject of the present work praising the latter for his 'erudizione si ammirabile' is also included pp. 263-267. The text is also accompanied by extensive bibliographical footnotes and a thirty-one page index. 8vo engraved portrait frontispiece and pp. viii 303 1 colophon 4 advertisements in contemporary glazed cream paper boards front joint cracking headcap chipped some other light wear and stains yellow labels on spine lettered in gilt the lower one ruled in ink.

Catalogo Dei Quadri Dei Disegni E Dei Libri Che Trattano Dell' Arte Del Disegno

177612401Venice: s.n. 1776. Modern vellum mostly uncut. The paintings 181 drawings 1211 and books 350 owned by Francesco Algarotti a true Enlightenment figure. He was a widely recognized philosopher a popularizer of Newtonianism an intimate of Frederick II of Prussia and art advisor to Augustus III Elector of Saxony. Francesco's wide ranging love affairs involved i.a. John Hervey 2nd Baron Hervey 1696-1743 and Lady Mary Wortley Montagu 1689-1762. On his death his collections passed to and were augmented by his brother Bonomo 1706-76 whose daughter put this catalog to press. Its authorship is attributed to architect Giannantonio Selva 1753-1819 and conservator and curator Pietro Edwards 1744-1821. A French translation appeared immediately and a German version in 1780. The paintings and drawings are organized by artist giving birth and death dates and principal places of activity. Predominantly Italian 15th- to 18th-century the paintings are carefully described the support and dimensions noted and an aesthetic judgement historical note or scholarly reference often added. Handled summarily the drawings - even those of Michelangelo - are designated watercolor red crayon pen and ink etc. with those on colored paper so indicated. The books cover architecture lives of artists curiosity cabinets views coins and medals anatomy travel guides archaeology perspective monuments pattern books color. Internally fresh some scattered red crayon marginal marks. ¶Dall'Orto "Algarotti Francesco" in Who's Who in Gay and Lesbian History edd.

Neuer historischer Lust-Garten darinnen 100. auserlesene anmuthig- und erbauliche Historien zu finden welche sich so wol auf Preiss-würdige Tugenden denenselben nachzuahmen als abscheuliche Laster selbig zu fliehen beziehen .

Containing 100 exquisite charming and edifying histories both of fine virtues to be pursued and of gross vices to be avoided. With appended spiritual morals and reflections. Published for everyone's use and enjoyment. With an appendix of several humorous and entertaining stories and poems

170687605Nürnberg: Joh. Leonhard Buggel 1706. Second edition. First published 1701; reissued by the same publisher under revised title in 1718. 12mo 125cm. 19th-c. mottled calf over marbled boards; gilt spine title; 123146pp; engraved extra-title. Pressure-stamp of a 20th-century owner to base of title page David B. Dickens. Two small ink-spots to the engraved extra-title; mild age-darkening to text but overall a very clean and attractive copy. Very Good. Text entirely in German. Uncommon collection of brief parables and humorous vignettes each intended to illustrate a particular virtue vice or crime - Rejuvenation Kindness Friendship Industry; Superstition Jealousy Fratricide Adultery etc - built around the author's conceit of a book organized as a pleasure-garden wherein "Just as a garden lover tired from office business and worries is refreshed again and.comes alive when he strolls around in his sweet-smelling flower field picking a little flower here and there.so a person recovers his spirits when he occasionally devotes an hour to reading various moral stories picking their morals as he would flowers and fruits and applying their beneficial use." from the author's Foreword; translation ours. Apparently the only published work by Caspar Blanckard to whom we can find no reference beyond his authorship of the current work. Very scarce; OCLC and KVK find only three physical locations for any edition; we note another apparently unindexed copy in the Harold Jantz Collection of at Duke University. This copy from the collection of David B. Dickens long-time professor of German Language and Literature at Washington & Lee University. Joh. Leonhard Buggel unknown
