2010932697<p>Seattle WA: Ouroboros Press / Ars Obscura : "Printed after the 1617 edition at the sign of the Ouroboros" 2010. NEW / Limited to 75 copies only Hand-bound by Ars Obscura Bookbinding. From the Publisher see images - Full black leather handbound with gilt title and device raised spine bands marbled endsheets and silk bookmark. Aviary folding plate. Fine typography with emblematic ornaments. Limited to 75 copies only. Jocus Severus was originally published in 1617 by Count Michael Maier and is here rendered into the English tongue from the Latin text by the remarkably able translator Darius Klein. Like his work on Giordano Bruno's Cantus Circaeus this is the First English Translation. In addition to the new translation the Ouroboros Press edition of Jocus Severus distinguishes itself by employing new emblematic illustration work by Benjamin A. Vierling who in keeping with our publishing style has produced fine illustrative ornaments and a fold-out plate depicting the aviary creatures of the text. These graphic elements complement the typographical details with an effect befitting a piece of fine Renaissance book art. Michael Maier is well known in the historical milieu of alchemy due largely to his important work on alchemy and music Atalanta Fugiens yet his other works have remained obscure and unobtainable until now. An excellent biography of Maier can be found in the work of Hereward Tilton The Quest for the Phoenix: Spiritual Alchemy and Rosicrucianism in the Work of Count Michael Maier 1569-1622. In the foregoing work Tilton indicates the thrust of the Jocus Severus thus: The Jocus Severus takes the form of a court of judgment upon the bird of wisdom sacred to Pallas Athena the Owl in this instance embodying chemia as the highest science. The Owl stands accused of a number of misdemeanours by an assembly of squawking and cantankerous birds who represent the various critics of chemia. Council for the defense is the Hawk; presiding over the court is the Phoenix the symbol of the Work's perfection . . . . After facing her fellow birds accusations the Owl and her Art are eventually vindicated by the Hawk's expert defense and she is adjudged Queen of the Birds by the Phoenix".

2007008606Five Continents Editions 2007. Hardcover. Good/Good. Text in English. DJ has creasing to edges with one small tear/bump on one corner mild scuffing overall. Book has a 5 CM tear in exterior gutter of front board at tail of spine not affecting solid binding and fine interior. The first to be published in over thirty years this long-awaited catalogue raisonné covers the work of Frans Post Haarlem 1612-Haarlem 1680 the first artist from the Old World to paint the landscape of the Americas on the basis of first-hand experience. Engaged by Prince Johan Maurits van Nassau as part of the Dutch West India Company's colonizing efforts in the Northeast of Brazil the young artist remained in the province of Pernambuco from 1637 to 1644. He arrived here at the age of 24 and painted the seven canvases of extraordinary quality that were the subject of a recent exhibition at the Musée du Louvre in Paris 2005. These detailed and accurate records of what the young artist saw are the first landscapes of the New World painted in situ by a trained European artist as well as outstandingly original landscape paintings. After his return to Holland Post chose the Brazilian landscape as the exclusive theme of his work for more than 30 years and over the past decades the other 148 known paintings that survive from his Dutch production have also been receiving the growing attention of collectors scholars and museums worldwide. This book presents all of the 155 autograph paintings confirmed to date along with 57 drawings and 35 prints. To complete their task the authors were joined by four renowned international experts to establish the corpus of authentic works and their chronology. The portrait of Frans Post on the back cover is by his contemporary Frans Hals. <br/> <br/> Five Continents Editions hardcover

It can be argued that the Third Mexican Provincial Council of 1585 was one of the most important religious events in the history of Mexico. Summoned by Pedro Moya de Contreras the all-powerful archbishop visitador and later viceroy it was one of many such councils held in Spain and its dominions in the aftermath of the Council of Trent. It not only enacted a comprehensive code of canon law for New Spain but also commissioned important works such as a uniform catechism and ceremonial. One of the most important of these was the directory for confessors a lengthy summary of moral theology canon law and pastoral practice designed to compensate for the poor education of the clergy. It is an invaluable source for the social economic and religious life of sixteenth-century New Spain. Condition: Slight bumps on front edge and top of spine else very good to fine.
