"This society was instituted in the year 1780 in the city of Philadelphia for the purpose of keeping up the knowledge of the German language and to preserve it in its purity." Filled with the righteousness of the victorious Shultz echoed the call for a nationalistic spirit in American but cautioned against the loss of the German culture and language that was so important to many citizens of Pennsylvania. The Mosheimian Society was organized in 1789 by Justus Heinrich Christian Helmuth an immigrant from Halle Germany with the goal of creating a comprehensive education system with an emphasis on adult literary skills in the German language and culture. Like most of its members Benjamin Schultz was a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania. He is most remembered as a physician and advocate of vaccination who acted as a circuit rider and itinerant "vaccinator" in Pennsylvania. He petitioned President Madison for an official position that would allow him to travel wherever he was needed to vaccinate the public in any state in the union.

1763002197Nurembergh Nürnberg: Christoph Riegels seel. Wittib 1763. Paperback. Poor. 78 p. incomplete probably of 96 p.; 17 cm. Signatures: A-E8 -E8 8vo. The remains of a contemporary wrapper are attached along the spine but lacking otherwise. The remaining paper cover is lined with part of a page of a German-language book. Several ink notations in the lower margins indicating that this belonged to David Beidleman of Mifflin Town Mifflintown Pa. A few ink corrections of errors. A translation of Verbesserte und Erleichterte Lateinische Grammatica by Johann Joachim Lange 1670-1744 a German Protestant theologian. The year prior to this publication the same printer Christoph Riegels seel. Wittib had issued a 96-page French edition of the work: Dialogues de Feu Monsieur Lang Traduits du Latin Avec les Mots et Phrases de Chaque Dialogue: pour l'Usage des Jeunes Gens. In 1769 an English translation was published in London by Edward and Charles Dilly under the title: Easy and Pleasant Latin Conversations or One Hundred and Forty-four Dialogues on Common Subjects Morals and the First Part of the Roman History. The edition offered here was intended to help German speakers learn English. Unfortunately the translator John Justin Herwig had a less than perfect understanding of English. This may explain the scarcity of the item only one copy is listed on Worldcat with no physical description. The dialogues are grouped by "decades" or groups of 10 dialogues each. The final leaf of signature E is lacking and the text ends at the beginning of the 10th dialogue in the ninth decade the 9th group of 10. Presumably a final signature is also lacking which would have brought the page total to 96 which agrees with the size of the French edition issued one year earlier by the same printer. Extremely scarce and unusual 18th-century work. In Poor Condition: incomplete as described above; old soiling and dampstaining; stitching is going. Christoph Riegels seel. Wittib paperback
