1952CA02502 volumes. Royal octavo 9 1/4" x 6 3/4" bound in facsimile velum with title printed in red and black on covers and horizontally ink lettered. Introduction by Francisco Gonzalez de Cossio. <b>From the library of George M Foster</b>. Second edition limited to 500 copies of which this is number 13.<br /><br />José Antonio Villaseñor y Sánchez was an 18th-century geographer historian and mathematician in New Spain. He was born in San Luis Potosí México and studied at San Ildefonso in Mexico City. He became an accountant and later official cosmographer geographer of New Spain. By order of Philip V the viceroy of New Spain Conde de Fuenclara was commanded in 1740 to have a report prepared on the true condition of the provinces of his jurisdiction. He commissioned José Antonio Villaseñor y Sánchez to prepare the report. Villaseñor occupied a number of important posts: official mayor of the Contaduria de Reales Tributos contador general de la azogues and cosmographer of New Spain. He wrote a number of works of mathematical and astronomical interest. The outcome of this commission by Fuenclara was the <i>Theatro Americano descripción general de los reinos y provincias de la Nueva España y sus jurisdicciones</i>. It appeared in two volumes in 1746 and 1748. The first volume contains introductory chapters on pre-Spanish and Spanish history of Mexico followed by a jurisdiction-by jurisdiction description of the archdiocese of Mexico and diocese of Puebla. The second volume continues the description for the diocese of Puebla. The second volume continues the description for the diocese of Michoacán Oaxaca Guadalajara and Durango. The work comprehends a great mass of data regarding the ethnology and population of the Mexican provinces in the mid-18th century. <i>Handbook of Middle American Indians</i>.<br /><br />George McClelland Foster Jr born in Sioux Falls South Dakota on October 9 1913 died on May 18 2006 at his home in the hills above the campus of the University of California Berkeley where he served as a professor from 1953 to his retirement in 1979 when he became professor emeritus. His contributions to anthropological theory and practice still challenge us; in more than 300 publications his writings encompass a wide diversity of topics including acculturation long-term fieldwork peasant economies pottery making public health social structure symbolic systems technological change theories of illness and wellness humoral medicine in Latin America and worldview. The quantity quality and long-term value of his scholarly work led to his election to the National Academy of Sciences in 1976.

ST17767BEGermany second quarter of ninth century. Each leaf approximately 305 x 205 mm 12 x 8". Single column 29-30 lines in a large and extremely legible Caroline minuscule. <br/> Rubrics in red each leaf with one or more large initials in red. Text with a few contemporary corrections and erasures. Accompanied by a copy of a letter from Bernhard Bischoff dating the manuscript leaves. ◆Vellum a little toned and soiled one leaf with an old repair to the bottom third of the outer margin minor folds small stains and other trivial imperfections but IN EXTREMELY FINE CONDITION the lettering clear and legible the vellum in excellent shape and the margins surprisingly comfortable.<br/> <br/> These are nothing short of magnificent specimens and remarkable survivals with wide borders all around with entirely clear and distinct script with only minimal overall dust soiling and with strength and freshness to the vellum; the leaves present a powerful redolence of a time as far in the past as one could optimistically hope to encounter among Western manuscript artifacts in the marketplace. The script here is an outstanding example of the highly legible Caroline minuscule that dominated Europe in the ninth century characterized by clear letter forms ample spacing between letters and between lines and very few abbreviations the most common occurrence being "&" for "et" occurring anywhere in a word. The parent manuscript was almost certainly a Homiliary containing sermons by various Christian authors to be said throughout the year with the present leaves containing passages from part of Leo I Sermo XCV and parts of a tractatus on Luke by Ambrose as well as other lections readings for the Vigil of the Feast of St Peter and the Feast of the Octave of Pentecost and the opening of a sermon of Leo I for Feria IV mensis IV; four other sister leaves are known and contain additional passages from Leo I and Ambrose as well as Pope Gregory I and readings for various feast days. The presence of these texts suggest that the leaves might have come from a Homiliary originally composed by Paul the Deacon at the behest of Charlemagne a version that was widely circulated throughout the Carolingian Empire in the eighth and ninth centuries. Although the scriptorium in which these leaves were produced has yet to be determined we can say with confidence that they date to the second quarter of the ninth century due to the style of the script as stated in the accompanying letter by esteemed paleographer Bernard Bischoff. Much of their history over the last 12 centuries remains a mystery but we do know that three of the extant leaves were in the possession of dealer Bruce Ferrini by 1989 with his stock number beginning "VM" and two bear the stock numbers and price codes of Quaritch. All were acquired by Martin Schøyen and became part of the renowned Schøyen collection MS 587. Very early leaves such as these often survive only because they come from manuscripts that were dismembered with the leaves then being reused as binding scrap; when later recovered they are typically in lamentable condition. The present leaves by contrast met no such fate--they have always been intact and untouched by the binder and so show none of the staining and trimming that are almost always present with repurposed leaves from demolished manuscripts. This notably fine state of preservation is rarely seen on the market. As a consequence these specimens are not only among the earliest leaves we have ever offered for sale but also some of the most extraordinary survivals we have ever acquired. We have bought and sold only a handful of ninth century leaves in our 45 years in business; in the present case because we were extremely lucky to acquire a small collection of six leaves from a single source we are able to offer them here at an advantageous price point. unknown
