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

185416778Boston: Gould and Lincoln. Good with no dust jacket. 1854. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Peel and paper residue on pastedowns from probable glued-on paper cover Dewey classification number in pencil on title page edgewear light tone light foxing otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover.; First Edition of Roget in the United States based on the Second English Edition "Revised and Edited with a list of foreign words defined in English and other additions by Barnas Sears D D Secretary of the Massachusetts Board of Education." The Preface of the American Editor notes that "The greatest fault of the work is that of incorporating so many objectionable words and phrases which ought never to meet the eye or tempt the tongue. . Indeed it is not easy to discover any advantage arising from so copious a collection of vulgar words and phrases except to the few who as professed authors have frequent occasion to represent the language of low life whom we do not undertake to aid. It was therfore thought advisable in issuing an American edition to omit all words of this character; and as the greater part of the phrases are either low or trite4 and as the residue are of doubtful utility they have all been dropped." ; 468 12 ad pages .
