Signed, without inscription, by author upon title page. [4], 110 pages. Index. Map endpapers. Profusely illustrated with sepia-tone reproductions of archival photos. "Charles Heels worked for the railways from 1912 until his retirement in 1960. Over the years he collected and recorded the history of his vocation. From early in the twentieth century he collected and took photographs related to his special field. The result is that the only copy of many of the photographs of the early days of railroading in Canada have been preserved in his collection. This book illustrates over 100 of these photos and records the history of many of the events which make up the history of railroading in Canada. Heels worked out of Lindsay, Ontario where he was responsible for freight cars in the district between Toronto, Belleville, Peterborough and points north and east. He thus needed to know all of the workings of the railway in central Ontario for almost half a century" - dust jacket. Writing blacked out in lower left corner of title page, otherwise book clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Binding tight. Moderate wear to dust jacket which is now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy of this important Ontario railroad history. Book

Belle testatine e finalini e 24 vignette animate sempre incise all'acquaforte all'inizio di ogni capitolo dell'opera dal celebre incisore originario di Angarano (Vicenza), Giovanni Volpato (fu tra i più importanti collezionisti antiquari e mediatori di antichità della fine del Settecento). Celebre e ricercata edizione veneziana illustrata, considerata fra le più belle mai stampate, del capolavoro del grande Arcivescovo, teologo e pedagogo originario di Château de Fénelon morto a Cambrai nel 1715, François de Salignac de La Mothe Fenelon. Precettore del duca di Borgogna, si oppose a Bossuet e cadde in disgrazia in conseguenza della "querelle" sul quietismo e, soprattutto, dopo la pubblicazione del romanzo Les Aventures de Télémaque (1699), considerato una critica alla politica di Luigi XIV. L'influenza letteraria di quel romanzo rimase notevole per almeno due secoli. Per il suo allievo reale, che però morì nel 1712 senza esser potuto salire al trono, malgrado Luigi morisse un anno prima, Fénelon scrisse molte opere divertenti e istruttive insieme: prima una raccolta di favole, le Aventures d'Astinoüs e i Dialogues des morts modernes ma, soprattutto, nel 1694-1696, il romanzo educativo di avventure e di viaggi Les Aventures de Télémaque, fils d'Ulysse. In questo romanzo, pseudo-storico e utopistico, egli conduce il giovane Telemaco, figlio di Ulisse, insieme con il precettore Mentore (naturalmente una sorta di Fénelon stesso) attraverso diversi paesi dell'antichità che spesso, a causa dei cattivi consiglieri dei governanti, ebbero problemi simili a quelli che attraversavano la Francia di quegli anni, soprattutto le continue guerre, problemi che tuttavia si potrebbero risolvere - almeno così sostiene Fénelon nel romanzo - grazie a una pacifica convivenza con i paesi confinanti, a riforme economiche, allo sviluppo dell'agricoltura e alla fine della produzione degli articoli di lusso. Il maggior avversario di Fénelon a corte fu Bossuet, che pure l'aveva appoggiato in precedenza, ma nel 1694 gli si era opposto sulla questione del quietismo, una polemica teologica, e nel 1697 aveva cercato di ottenere dal papa la sua condanna per lo scritto Explication des maximes des saints sur la vie intérieure, dove Fénelon aveva preso le difese di Madame Guyon (considerata una sorta di nemica pubblica, tanto da essere stata arrestata nel 1698). Il papa Innocenzo XII condannò l'opera nel 1699, essendo state rilevate in essa 23 proposizioni eretiche e Fénelon si sottomise e abiurò. Dal 1698, il Télémaque cominciò a circolare a corte sotto forma di copie, e vi si volle vedere una critica appena mascherata contro il governo autoritario di Luigi XIV, contro la sua politica estera aggressiva e contro la sua politica economica mercantilista, che favoriva le esportazioni ma deprimeva i consumi interni. L'opera, che Fénelon non aveva voluto rendere pubblica, gli fu sottratta da un domestico. Ai primi del 1699, Fénelon perse il posto di precettore e quando, in aprile, il Télémaque fu pubblicato - sia pure anonimo e senza la sua autorizzazione - Luigi XIV vi vide una satira contro il suo regno, fece arrestare il tipografo e bandì dalla corte Fénelon.

Encyclopedia Britannica "François de Salignac de La Mothe-Fénelon: French archbishop and writer". Fenelon is perhaps most famous for his treatise on the education of girls published at the end of the seventeenth century. His Dialogues on Eloquence was composed around this same time and was published after his death. Fenelon's pedagogical writings were hugely influential in his day and remained so for decades afterward. This work in particular focuses on public speaking in a church or other religious setting. Some rubbing to the joints binding is firm and secure; a nineteenth-century or earlier name on the title page. Chez Florentin Delaulne hardcover

FOR THE SON OF A KING<br /> <br /> Salignac de la Mothe-Fénelon was a French Catholic archbishop a man of tolerance living during a period of great strife between Protestants and Catholics. He was opposed by the church and state for his liberal views on education and mystical prayer. Nevertheless he was summoned to tutor the unruly grandson and heir of Louis XIV who he wrote Telemachus for in 1699. Originally anonymously published the story follows Telemachus's instruction as Odysseus' heir and rebuked Louis XIV's autocratic regime encouraging his heir to value qualities like brotherhood altruism and parliamentary systems.<br /> <br /> The Adventures of Telemachus saw roaring success in England throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and was frequently given to young boys as part of their education ending up in the hands of thinkers like Rousseau and Montesquieu. This edition came as one of many bilingual issues released during this fervor including a discourse on epic poetry. <br /> <br /> This ornate copy is bound in beautiful tree calf and has marbled edges and endpapers.
