In -4°, pp. (20), 82, (2). Marocchino, fregi dorati ai piatti e al dorso. Il conte Enrico Trivelli (1709-1737) fu un turbolento intellettuale e poeta napoletano, con ascendenze abruzzesi. La famiglia era di Vasto, ma trasferitasi temporaneamente a Napoli, dove nacque Enrico, che però compì gli studi nella cittadina abruzzese, dove la famiglia era tornata pochi anni dopo la sua nascita. Tornò a Napoli e poi andò a Roma dove, indebitato e in ristrettezze, si impiegò come copista presso la bottega di Martorello e Martino Dominici. Autore di poesia umoristica, satira, pasquinate, dialoghi irriverenti fra cardinali, sonetti contro la Chiesa cattolica e opere politiche. Si attirò il dispetto delle autorità politiche ed ecclesiastiche, compreso Clemente XII, e fu decapitato davanti a Castel Sant’Angelo, “per composizioni di scritture malediche e sediziose contro il Pontefice della Santa Sede”. Questo trattato è l’unico vero e proprio volume pubblicato dal Trivelli, che nello stesso anno aveva pubblicato anche un opuscolo celebrativo proprio di Clemente XII (la “Canzone del conte Errico Trivelli per l’esaltazione di N.S. Papa Clemente XII”, Firenze, 1732, della quale però non si conoscono copie complete): il trattato in sé è un fitto concentrato di erudizione retorica e letteraria, nel quale spicca l’affollamento di riferimenti, di citazioni e di autori rammentati, sia nell’ambito della composizione in volgare (da Dante, Petrarca, Ariosto, a Castiglione, Sannazzaro, Marino “e i suoi poco giudiziosi seguaci”), della critica (Valla, Muratori), degli autori classici (l’elenco dei citati è impressionante considerata la relativa esiguità del testo; numerose le citazioni composte in caratteri greci). Al di là dell’intento esibitorio condotto nel testo dal giovane Trivelli nei confronti del lettore, sono numerosi gli spunti e i dettagli originali, nell’arco del trattato: un esempio su tutti può essere la segnalazione di un’“improprietà” in un componimento del Sannazzaro (“non condonabile” la definisce T.), la seconda egloga, in cui il poeta pecca di superficialità nel tempo della narrazione, visto che la notte subentra al “mezzo giorno”, secondo Trivelli, “in brevissimo spazio di tempo, in cui appena Montano, ed Uranio avevan potuto far un colloquio di pochi versi”: la parte più originale del libro è proprio quella in cui l’autore, ambizioso e “scapestrato” si dedica a criticare speciosamente alcuni passi di autori, senza risparmiare dalla sua lente Ariosto, Tasso, Ovidio e via dicendo. L’urgenza di ottenere riconoscimento è peraltro confermata dalla collezione di testi che fanno da prefazione alla “Lettera” vera e propria, firmati Matteo Egizio (con lettera e replica dell’autore, a sua volta inclusa nel volume), Tommaso Bugassi, Matteo Piccoli Lettor Celestino. Nobile e letterato di area napoletana, il Francesco Caraffa (sc. Carafa) destinatario della “lettera” aveva pubblicato nel ’30 una poderosa raccolta di “Rime varie… Composte nella sua solitaria dimora nel monte Caprario della baronia di Formicola” (Firenze, 1730). Una nota manoscritta al recto del foglio di guardia anteriore recita “Ad usum Friderici Valignani ex dono Authoris…” Valignani (Chieti, 1700 – Torrevecchia Teatina, 1754) era considerato un letterato piuttosto illustre, che ebbe contatti con molti personaggi importanti dell’epoca (uno su tutti il Muratori, citato moltissime volte nella “Lettera” del Trivelli), e nel 1720 aveva fondato la “Colonia Tegea” dell’Arcadia Romana (accademia nella quale era stato accolto anche Trivelli, a Roma, col nome di Idasio Nivalgo. D’interesse la pagina degli imprimatur, che chiude il volume, e comprende la nota di approvazione del Vico. La nota manoscritta che precede il volume prosegue – da altra mano – “Qui Roma ob satyram in Clementem XII Pont: Max severi percussus fuit frustra ante mortem elegenti carmine eniam petente quam tamen assecutus fuerit a clementis principe si ipsa carmina ad aures opportuno tempore pervenissent.” Count Enrico Trivelli (1709-1737) was a turbulent thinker and poet, from Naples but with ancestry from Abruzzo, in Central Italy. In Rome, where he was living in poverty, emploied himself as a copyst in Dominici Brothers’ typography. Humour and satyric writer, he clashed against Vatican, included pope Clemente XII, and he was beheaded in front of Castel Sant’Angelo because of his “seditious” compositions against the Pope. This work is the only real volume ever published by Trivelli: it’s a dense concentrate of rethorics and erudition, with a large number of captions and mentions of authors from Italian, Latin, Greek and classic tradition. Beyond its meaning to exhibit knowledge, the book contains some original thoughts and interesting details. A manuscript note before the title page: “Ad usum Friderici Valignani ex dono Authoris…” Valignani was a well considered literary man with relations with many contemporary important personalities (as the Muratori, for instance). On “imprimatur” page there’s also the authorization to print by Giovan Battista Vico.

Kiepert, (1818-1899), was born in Berlin. He traveled frequently as a youth with his family and documented his travels by drawing. His family was friends with Leopold von Ranke, who inspired Kiepert's creative endeavors. Kiepert was taught by August Meineke in school. Meineke influenced Kiepert's interest in classical antiquity. He attended Humboldt University of Berlin. He studied history, philology, and geography. He published his first geographical work, with Carl Ritter, in 1840, titled Atlas von Hellas und den hellenischen Kolonien. The atlas focused on ancient Greece. In 1848 his Historisch-geographischer Atlas der alten Welt was published. In 1854, his atlas, Atlas antiquus was released. It was translated into five languages. Neuer Handatlas über alle Teile der Erde was first published in 1855. In 1877 his Lehrbuch der alten Geographie was published, and in 1879 Leitfaden der alten Geographie, which was translated into English (A Manual of Ancient Geography, 1881) and into French. In 1894 he created the first part of a larger atlas of the ancient world titled Formae orbis antiqui. He traveled to Asia Minor four times between 1841 and 1848. He created two maps of the region, including Karte des osmanischen Reiches in Asien, in 1844. Kiepert taught geography at the University of Humboldt-Berlin starting in 1854. He taught at the university until his death. Akyol, article 536.; Dagtekin p. 22 (With detailed bibliography on Kiepert's maps). Rare. Preserved in a frame, will be sent without its frame.

Report was not published before such as that. Roumi: 1327 = Gregorian: 1910. The Ottoman land represented a bridge between Asia and Europe, which was destroyed by epidemic diseases that emerged in different periods. In the 19th century, the main source of epidemic was the cholera morbus that emerged in India in the lower Bengal delta between the Ganges and Brahmaputra rivers. At the beginning of the 19th century, the disease became a global threat. Cholera epidemic appeared for the first time in the Ottoman territory in 1822, and continued to emerge into intermediate outbreaks. Due to its geographical location, the cholera epidemic was easily spread to the Ottoman territory and caused great losses in the 19th century, when it became a global threat. At the beginning of the 20th century, still cholera was a serious problem. Prokopi is a settlement in Central Asia Minor, built on a plateau at an altitude of 1,200 m above sea level. It lies near the confluence of four tributary rivers of the Alys River (Kizilirmak), which flows to the north of Ürgüp, within about 10 km from the settlement. It has been claimed that the word Ürgüp is the Turkish version of the Greek name Prokopi. The latter is supposed to refer to St. Prokopios, although there is no evidence suggesting the existence of a namesake church. Levidis supported that the ancient name of the settlement was Osiana, which the traveller Texier (Charles) adopted as well. Ürgüp was inhabited by Muslims, Turkish-speaking Greek-Orthodox and some Armenians. Several conflicting opinions have been stated about the population. Farasopoulos talks about 15,000 Muslims and 5,000 Christians. According to an inventory carried out by the state in 1919, Ürgüp was inhabited by 12,500 Muslims, 6,000 Christian-Orthodox and 15-20 Armenian families.
