Very Good Arabic Original wrappers in dark green cloth spine. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In Arabic 40 p. First and Only Edition in book form of this work on synonyms in the Arabic language, printed for the Arabic universities as an early textbook in Bulaq Printing House. The Bulaq or El-Amiriya Press is the first official and governmental printing press to be established in Egypt, and function according to industrial printing basis, causing not just a qualitative but also a quantitative and knowledgeable leap in science throughout the Arab region. The Bulaq Press was part of Mohamed Aly's inclusive development plans for the modernization of Egypt. The Khedive, first initiated his plans by establishing a strong Egyptian army; one that is capable of strengthening his grip on the country. It thus became essential that this army be provided with the necessary instructive and educational books and material, by which to learn military plans and techniques, as well as the different types of artillery and laws that define a soldier's duties and rights. A pressing need eventually developed for establishing a governmental press; one that should provide such material. By 1815 CE., Mohamed Aly initiated the process of bringing the art of printing to Egypt by sending the first official delegation, headed by Nicole El Masabki, to Milan in Italy, to learn the principles of printing. The same delegation was later able to return and establish the first official press in Egypt. Only three copies located in OCLC: 978241754.

Première édition française de cet ouvrage fondateur. "Sa théorie générale est que le langage et les processus de pensée qu'il reflète, révèlent une universalité que l'on retrouve non seulement dans le langage mais aussi dans la nature elle-même. Plus intéressant encore, Harris soutient que les catégories logiques constituent la structure profonde non seulement de la grammaire et du langage littéraire, mais aussi de toutes les opérations intellectuelles humaines (…). Ses idées ont été notées comme étant étonnamment similaires à celles de Ferdinand de Saussure et de Chomsky" (J. Yolton, 'Dict. of 18th c. British Philosophers', 1999). "Un grand livre où s'unissent thèses rationalistes sur le langage, ébauche d'un comparatisme synchronique et diachronique et la première élaboration véritable du concept de système en linguistique" (Jean Stefanini).

Estimé par ses contemporains, loué par Diderot dans l'Encyclopédie, ce traité demeure l'une des sources principales sur la prosodie et les phénomènes de prononciation, d'accentuation et d'intonation du français dans la première moitié du XVIIIe siècle.

Ami de Boileau et professeur de Voltaire, l'abbé d'Olivet fréquenta le salon de la marquise de Lambert. Il fut élu membre de l'Académie française en 1723 et devint l'un des rédacteurs les plus actifs du 'Dictionnaire'. Bel exemplaire, très frais, bien relié à l'époque.
In 8°, 188pp, legatura in carta decorata, altrimenti buono stato. Niccolò Perotti, o Niccolò Perotto, in lingua latina Nicolaus Perottus (Sassoferrato, 1430 circa – Sassoferrato, 14 dicembre 1480), è stato un umanista, filologo e arcivescovo cattolico italiano. Nel 1452 Perotti ricevette a Bologna l'alloro poetico dalle mani dell'imperatore Federico III. Durante il soggiorno bolognese Perotti ebbe anche un violento scontro con Poggio Bracciolini in difesa di Lorenzo Valla. Nel 1455 Perotti tornò a Roma, dove venne nominato segretario apostolico. L'anno successivo ricevette gli ordini, e il 19 ottobre 1458 fu nominato arcivescovo di Siponto, sede nella quale tuttavia non risiedette mai. Partecipò invece l'anno successivo al Concilio di Mantova, indetto da Pio II per cercare di arrestare gli Ottomani che nel 1453 avevano espugnato Costantinopoli. Ritornò successivamente al seguito di Bessarione, restandovi fino al 1464, anno in cui fu nominato governatore del Patrimonio di San Pietro. Nel biennio 1460-61, al seguito del card. Bessarione, Perotti fu in Germania, dove venne nominato consigliere imperiale di Federico III, e poi a Venezia (1461), dove ottenne la nomina a referendario pontificio. Durante il quinquennio 1464-69, trascorso a Viterbo come governatore del Patrimonio di San Pietro, Perotti cominciò a pubblicare le sue opere di filologia. Nel 1469 Perotti tornò a Roma; attorno al 1470 scrisse un'invettiva contro Giorgio di Trebisonda reo di aver attaccato violentemente il card. Bessarione. Nel 1471 Perotti fu nominato governatore di Spoleto, incarico che lasciò l'anno successivo. Nel 1474 divenne governatore di Perugia, dove ebbe come segretario l'umanista Francesco Maturanzio. Ai primi del 1477, terminato l'incarico in Umbria, Perotti si ritirò nelle Marche, dove rimase fino al termine della vita. In-8°, 188pp, decorated paper binding, otherwise good copy. Niccolò Perotti, or Niccolò Perotto, in Latin Nicolaus Perottus (Sassoferrato, around 1430 - Sassoferrato, 14 December 1480), was an Italian Catholic humanist, philologist and archbishop. In 1452 Perotti received the poetic laurel in Bologna from the hands of Emperor Frederick III. During his stay in Bologna Perotti also had a violent clash with Poggio Bracciolini in defense of Lorenzo Valla. In 1455 Perotti returned to Rome, where he was appointed apostolic secretary. The following year he received orders, and on October 19, 1458 he was appointed archbishop of Siponto, where he never lived, however. Instead, he participated the following year in the Council of Mantua, called by Pius II to try to arrest the Ottomans who in 1453 had conquered Constantinople. He subsequently returned to the retinue of Bessarione, remaining there until 1464, the year in which he was appointed governor of the Patrimony of San Pietro. In the biennium 1460-61, following card. Bessarione, Perotti was in Germany, where he was appointed imperial councilor of Frederick III, and then in Venice (1461), where he obtained the nomination as pontifical referendarius. During the five-year period 1464-69, spent in Viterbo as governor of the Patrimony of San Pietro, Perotti began to publish his philological works. In 1469 Perotti returned to Rome; around 1470 he wrote an invective against George of Trebizond guilty of violently attacking card. Bessarion. In 1471 Perotti was appointed governor of Spoleto, a position he left the following year. In 1474 he became governor of Perugia, where he had the humanist Francesco Maturanzio as secretary. In early 1477, having finished his assignment in Umbria, Perotti retired to the Marche region, where he remained until the end of his life.
Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In contemporary cloth bdg. Cr. 8vo. (19 x 13 cm). In Ottoman script. 88, [1] p. Usûl-i tedris-i Arabî. Mösyö Ahn'in usûlünden muktebesdir. Translated by Ismail Hemeti b. Osman. Ismail Hâmeti is one of the teachers of Beirut Idadî School. First Edition is published in 1898 in Beyrut. The Ministry of Education of the period made some changes in the program regarding the method of teaching Arabic translation and speaking. Additionally, he wanted the change to include the program of the sixth and seventh classes of "Idadîs". In accordance with this change made by the Ministry of Education, this book was started immediately since there were no books to be taught in Arabic teaching, and it was also published after the education by the Ministry of Education, with its 422 numbered permission on August 11, 1914. The method followed in the book is in accordance with the change made by the Ministry of Education in the program. The author states that on the cover of his book he prepared his work based on the "Monsieur Ahn" [i.e. Jean Françoise Ahn] procedure. This statement shows that the authors investigate the methods that arise about language teaching and closely follow the methods which are followed in the teaching of Western languages in order to prepare books suitable for these methods. Because the author adapted the rules of the method put forward by a Western linguist to the teaching of the Arabic language and tried to prepare his book. The topics in the work are covered at a level that the reader can understand easily. The first part of the book begins with exercises on translations from Arabic to Turkish and from Turkish to Arabic. Arabic words and Turkish meanings are given across each word. As the topics progress, both the number of sample sentences and level increases gradually. In the second chapter, grammar topics are handled in the same way under the title of "Kavâid-i Esasiye". In the third part, 45 prepositions are listed first with the title "edevât". he meanings of the prepositions are given, and then each is given as an example. After prepositions, there is a section under the title of "lugat" [i.e. dictionary]. (Source: Ikinci Mesrutiyet'ten günümüze Türkiye'de Arapça ögretimi, by Hasan Soyupek).
