1804LTH8-B-23Burdeos: Pedro Beaume 1804. Leather. Good Only. 7" by 4". None. An uncommon Spanish translation of famous French picaresque novel Gil Blas. Bound in half leather and marbled paper-covered boards with gilt lettering and decoration. Complete in Four Volumes. Four Volumes bound as Two. In Spanish. With the armorial nameplate of Samuel Edward Cook on the front pastedowns. With a Graham of Alnwick bookbinder's label to the front pastedown of Volume I. COPAC suggests that this work was translated by Jose Francisco de Isla. Gil Blas is considered to be the last masterpiece of the picaresque genre. Gil Blas is related to Lesage's play Turcaret. In both works Lesage uses witty valets in the service of thieving masters women of questionable morals cuckolded yet happy husbands gourmands ridiculous poets false savants and dangerously ignorant doctors to make his point. José Francisco de Isla 1703 1781 was a Spanish Jesuit celebrated as a preacher and a humorist and satirist of the stamp of Cervantes. Samuel Edward Widdrington formerly Cook 1787 - 1856 was an English writer on Spain. Having served in the Royal Navy he lived for some years in Spain. He served as High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1854. He was a fellow of the Royal Society and the Royal Geographical Society. Bound in half leather and marbled paper-covered boards with gilt lettering and decoration. There is some wear to the extremities including some rubbing. The front hinge of volume 1 is just starting but still firm. The front inner hinge of volume 1 is strained. The bindings are tight and firm. Internally the pages are generally clean and bright with slight foxing and marks to the first few pages. There are marginal discoloured tidemarks to the first 17 leaves of volume 2 including loss to the half title and title page that do not affect the text. Good Only Pedro Beaume hardcover

173417525Probably Lorient: La Compagnie perpétuelle des Indes 1734. 1100 by 680mm. 43.25 by 26.75 inches each sheet. Three manuscript charts on two different scales but adjoining pen and red and black ink with colour wash on paper laid down on blue linen signed within the title cartouche lower sheet only on a paper overlay upper right. A magnificent series of manuscript charts plotting a continuous route of nearly two thousand nautical miles for the voyage of Captain Louis Dryas in the French East Indiaman La Paix from the northeastern exit of the Sunda Strait to the estuary of the Pearl River in China: "Route du Vaisseau la Compagnie de Indes Paix Capitaine Monsieur Louis Dryas allant en Chine en 1733". Possibly a private commission perhaps to commemorate one of the earliest voyages undertaken by the La Compagnie perpétuelle des Indes according to new regulations that came into effect in September of 1733. These clearly defined the use of company vessels according to their destination reserving voyages to China for the company's largest vessels. Larger ships meant larger cargoes and so greater financial reward. Many of these larger vessels had until recently been warships employed in the War of Polish Succession which had ended with the "Pacte de Famille" between France and Spain in February of 1733. The name of the vessel "La Paix" is undoubtedly significant. The first and most southern sheet has all the hallmarks of grand design. It is drawn on a very large scale "Echelles des Lieux Francois a 20 au degrees" has an unfinished but very decorative title-cartouche two large decorative compass roses and the port of Batavia on the north coast of Java is drawn in some detail. It extends from the northern most exit of the Sunda Strait to the entrance to the western tip of Bangka island and Palembang in Sumatra. Depth soundings are given throughout. The untitled middle sheet while drawn on the same scale is altogether less decorative perhaps indicating a waning of funds for the cartographer. Nevertheless the chart shows clearly and accurately the islands of the Singapore Strait including the unnamed island of Singapore and the east coast of Malaysia as far north as Tioman Island. The northernmost sheet also untitled is drawn on a much smaller scale continues the voyage to the South China Sea and includes the coastlines of Malaysia Cambodia Vietnam Hainan to the coast of mainland China beyond Hong Kong where the voyage ends. Annotations possibly in the hand of Captain Dryas himself indicate where La Paix was made to remain at "anchorage" at "Pto Caby" and the "Embouchure dela Riviere de Canton". The geography of the islands in the estuary is still a bit muddled with present-day Hong Kong Island appearing as "I Lantoa" opposite the mainland labeled as "Boca Lantao". Macao appears as a distinct island. Nevertheless Sage's map precedes the publication of Jean-Baptiste Bourguignon D'Anville's 'Carte particuliere de l'entrée de Canton' which attempts to accurately chart the islands of the Pearl River estuary by a year; and Jacques Nicholas Bellin's by fifteen. The north coast of Borneo appears in some detail and the westernmost coasts of Luzon and Mindanao in the Philippines but Manila is just off the chart. The French East India Company - Compagnie des Indes - had several iterations after its founding in 1664. The second company La Compagnie perpétuelle des Indes fell victim to the ambitions of the infamous financier John Law and so it struggled during the 1720s and few French expeditions to China were commissioned. However during the 1730s about two Compagnie voyages were achieved a year until 1745 when the war of the Austrian Succession and then the Seven Years War caused a hiatus in trading relations.

It was highly popular and was translated several times into English most notably by Tobias Smollett in 1748 as <em>The Adventures of Gil Blas of Santillane</em>. <strong>Plot summary</strong>: Gil Blas is born in misery to a stablehand and a chambermaid of Santillana in Cantabria and is educated by his uncle. He left Oviedo at the age of seventeen to attend the University of Salamanca. His bright future is suddenly interrupted when he is forced to help robbers along the route and is faced with jail. He becomes a valet and over the course of several years is able to observe many different classes of society both lay and clerical. Because of his occupation he meets many disreputable people and is able to adjust to many situations thanks to his adaptability and quick wit. He finally finds himself at the royal court as a favorite of the king and secretary to the prime minister. Working his way up through hard work and intelligence Gil is able to retire to a castle to enjoy a fortune and a hard-earned honest life.</p> William Paterson. hardcover
