Zoonomia; or The Laws of Organic Life. Second Part.l & Part II.with an Introductory Address and a Short Appendix by Charles Caldwell M.D. Fellow of the College of Physicians of Philadselphia

1797310467Philadelphia: Printed by T. Dobson at The Stone House 1797. First American Edition. A New Edition. xxiv 486; 8 539pp. 2 vols. 8vo 8-1/4 x 5-3/4 inches. Original quarter sheep and red leather title labels on spine marbled boards uncut. First American Edition. A New Edition. xxiv 486; 8 539pp. 2 vols. 8vo 8-1/4 x 5-3/4 inches. UNCUT IN ORIGINAL BINDING. "As a physician Erasmus Darwin was widely recognized as England's finest medical doctor. He was asked several times to be personal physician to King George although his lack of respect for the monarchy in general and George in particular made this an easy offer to refuse. Much of the philosophy central to Erasmus Darwin's medical beliefs is laid out in his treatise on animal life Zoonomia. Although his views were loaded down with incorrect 18th-century ideas and assumptions. he was generally able to improve the lives of many of his patients using common-sense ideas such as a balanced diet the practice of basic hygiene and the cleaning and dressing of wounds. He was considered progressive in that he believed in a connection between his patient's state of mind and their general health and was one of the first physicians to espouse sympathetic treatment of mental patients who at the time were kept in deplorable conditions. Most of Zoonomia is made up of a Linneaus-inspired classification of all diseases and treatments known at that time. Erasmus tries to arrange them into distinct species genera families and ultimately into four broad classes: diseases of irritation from external sources sensation such as excess pain or pleasure volition caused by desire or aversion and association where diseases of one organ or system can cause other associated problems" Robert Day. This exercise led Darwin to advance the "first consistent all-embracing hypothesis of evolution" Garrison & Morton: "When we observe the essential unity of plan in all warmblooded animals we are led to conclude that they have been alike produced from a single living filament.".

"The Botanic Garden an annotated scientific poem in Augustan couplets appeared in two parts of which the second The Loves of the Plants 1789 was published before the first The Economy of Vegetation 1791. Darwin decided to publish the second part of the work first because it was better suited â€˜to entertain and charm.' The first part of the work is more ambitious than the second covering all natural philosophy and embodying many of the researches and inventions of Wedgwood Watt Boulton and others. The design of the totality was Darwin wrote â€˜To enlist Imagination under the banner of Science . . . to induce the ingenious to cultivate the knowledge of botany . . . and recommending to their attention the immortal works of the celebrated Swedish naturalistâ€”Linnaeus'" Dictionary of Scientific Biography. The Botanic Garden is also important for the five plates in Vol. I engraved by William Blake: four engravings of the Portland vase and the "Fertilization of Egypt" after a design by Fuseli.

The Colloquies or Familiar Discourses of Desiderius Erasmus of Roterdam Rendered into English

16711002105London: E.T. and R.H. for H. Brome B. Tooke and T. Sawbridge 1671. First edition in English of the complete Colloquia Familiaria of Erasmus first published in 1518 and expanded by Erasmus over the next fifteen years a lively collection of Latin dialogues that found a readership far beyond the Renaissance schoolroom. Originally intended to model colloquial conversation for students of Latin the dialogues feature pointed free-thinking exchanges on modern political religious and philosophical questions. In "Of the Abbot and Learned Woman" an ignorant abbot tries and fails to get the better of the classically educated Magdalia a character almost certainly based on Thomas More's eldest daughter: "I think thou art some sophistress thou protest so wittily." Magdalia: "I will not tell thee what I think thou art." And later: "I have often heard it usually spoken that a wise woman is twice a fool." Magdalia: "Indeed it useth to be said so but by fools." The Colloquia Familiaria was widely read and debated across Europe drawing immediate notice for its anticlerical satire: "its influence on the dialogues of Reformation Germany and Tudor England is a critical commonplace" Zlatar Reformation Fictions 11. The original purpose of the Colloquies as a text for teaching Latin postponed its direct translation; this first complete English edition was published more than 150 years after the work's first appearance. The edition opens with a short life of Erasmus and concludes with the first appearance in English of De utilitate colloquiorum Erasmus's 1526 defense of the Colloquies published after the Sorbonne condemned the book for impiety. In response Erasmus makes a case for the educational value of his dialogues' humor: "I cannot tell whether any thing be learned more successfully than that which is learned in playing." Despite his efforts the Colloquies would remain on the Papal Index of banned books through the end of the nineteenth century. Wing E-3190; PMM 53. A very good copy of a humanist landmark in a handsome contemporary binding. Octavo measuring 6.5 x 4.25 inches: 8 555 1. Contemporary Cambridge-style full speckled calf boards ruled and ornamented in blind raised bands red morocco spine label lettered and decorated in gilt top edge stained black.

En damus C. Plinii Secundi divinum opus cui titulus Historia mundi.

15256388Basel: Johannes Froben 1525. Very Good/Erasmus's edition of Pliny's Natural History conserving the notes from Ermolao Barbaro's edition of 1492 printed by Johannes Froben at the height of his powers. Froben's title page is effectively a billboard: "We give you the work of the Divine Pliny called History of the World more emaculate than any edition ever produced before starting with the annotations of erudite men first among them Ermolao Barbaro and then exemplary contributions by learned people which are still worth correcting with faith in the oldest codices from which we have restored many faults do difficult to find that no one no matter how learned could find them or had found them. We have nothing to envy. We have defeated all of our elders. And if someone now takes this prize from us we will not envy them but we will be grateful for the improvement of public education. Go reader and be fruitful. And by the way we added an index that lacks for nothing. Folio 37 cm; 18 leaves 671 143 pages. Woodcut printer's device the double-headed caduceus designed by Holbein on title page on verso of p. 671 on the title page of the index and on the final page. Holbein's detailed chiaroscuro woodcut initials throughout. Bound in vellum over boards titled in manuscript on spine. Old jottings in manuscript on upper board apparently an Italian and Latin vocabulary list including the names of foodstuffs. Portion of vellum near head of spine replaced. Erasmus's name on running head of dedicatory letter aggressively inked over! Occasional scattered very light foxing in a generally bright and unblemished text.

Chiliades Adagiorvm: Opvs Integrum Et Perfectum D. Erasmi Roterodami locupletatum & recognitum quem admodum in extremis conatibus autori uisum est ; AcceÃŸit indicibus antiquis in hac impreÃŸione nouus & tertius .

15402712Cologne:: Ex officina Ioannis Gymnici 1540. RARE COLOGNE EDITION. Folio: . 31.2 x 20 cm. . 88 3-874 1 pp. A-d6 e8 f-g6 A-Z6 Aa-Zz6 Aaa-Zzz6 Aaaa-Dddd6 last leaf is blank. A very fine copy bound in contemporary pigskin over beveled wooden boards tooled in blind. The clasps lacking some scuffing and soiling to lower board otherwise a very nice binding. Internally a beautiful copy with the lightest of occasional soiling. Gyminusâ€™ fine hippocamp device appears on the title. A very rare Cologne edition of Erasmusâ€™ beloved and extraordinarily influential â€œAdagesâ€ first conceived as a collection of proverbial sayings drawn from the Latin authors of antiquity elucidated for the use of those who aspired to write an elegant Latin style. In its first incarnation the â€œAdagiaâ€ consisted of about eight hundred proverbs. The present version Erasmus' "Adagia Chiliades" â€œThousands of Adagesâ€ is more than just a vastly expanded edition of that first enterprise: "A glance at its composition reveals that the â€˜Adagia Chiliadesâ€™ was in fact -as well as in name- a new book and that Greek scholarship was largely responsible for the difference. Instead of 818 adages there were 3260. Of those about four-fifths were either new or substantially altered in form. And 2734 contained Greek passages of two to six lines or more in length.â€Renaissance Humanism vol. 2 pages 232-233. â€œIn the dedication Erasmus pointed out the profit an author may derive both in ornamenting his style and in strengthening his argumentation from having at his disposal a good supply of sentences hallowed by their antiquity. He proposes to offer such a help to his readers. What he actually gave was much more. He familiarized a much wider circle than the earlier humanists had reached with the spirit of antiquity. â€œPrior to the â€˜Adagesâ€™ the humanists had to some extent monopolized the treasures of classic culture in order to parade their knowledge of which the multitude remained destitute and so to become strange prodigies of learning and elegance. With his irresistible need of teaching and his sincere love for humanity and its general culture Erasmus introduced the classic spirit in so far as it could be reflected in the soul of a sixteenth-century Christian among the people. Erasmus made current the classic spirit. Humanism ceased to be the exclusive privilege of a few. According to Beatus Rhenanus he had been reproached by some humanists when about to publish the 'Adagia' for divulging the mysteries of their craft. But he desired that the book of antiquity should be open to all." Huizinga p. 39-40 Van der Haeghen I 4; Bezzel 83; VD16 E 1944 Ex officina Ioannis Gymnici, unknown books

Before his death Erasmus 14661536 divided his writings into nine ordines categories for posthumous publication. This is the second edition of his collected works first published in nine volumes by Froben in 1540. Like the original this set includes additions by authors from the Dutch humanist's international circle and portraits of the same as well as => myriad engravings after Holbein.

Francisci son of the LÃ¼beck jurist Franciscus von Finx named himself "son of Franciscus" i.e. Francisci. More unusual than this endearing foible was his successful career as a free-lance man of letters. A prolific and popular polymath Francisci died at the age of 68 "having left behind almost as many volumes" Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie. Throughout his career he worked as a sort of house author with the Nuremberg publishing house of the Endter family. "There was hardly an area of knowledge at which he did not try his hand. As one of the first full-time professional authors of Germany Francisci understood how to switch if the need arose to a new area of interest that promised good sales for his publisher" Dunnhaupt Bibliographisches Handbuch I p. 628 my trans. With gusto and success he catered to an audience hungry for tales of distant lands for folklore and "a world saturated with wonders" Faber du Faur German Baroque Literature p. 198 compiling tales of travel and distant lands compendia of natural history and curiosities historical works and devotional meditations. As the thickness of this volume intimates Francisci's Sitzfleisch was awe-inspiring. His versatility huge readership and connections with many members of the "republic of letters" made him one of the most influential German writers of the Baroque. While the prose of his religious works may seem cloying to the modern reader they sold as well as his secular compilations. Being widely read across social classes fine copies of his books are rare. The 64 Bedenckungen considerations of the present treatise are interwoven with fables anecdotes and digressions. Each is illustrated with an engraved emblem Sinnbild set within an exuberant ornamental border the borders of most of the 21 unsigned plates apparently by a less skilled engraver than Schurtz are plainer. Francisci is known to have worked closely with his illustrators and presumably collaborated on the design of these engravings by Cornelius Nicolaus Schurtz Joachim von Sandrart and one other engraver the 21 unsigned plates are in plainer borders and appear to be the work of a less skilled engraver. Characteristically varied in subject-matter the emblems and emblematic scenes are largely secular showing scenes of war domestic life natural disasters seafaring including shipwrecks the plant and animal world including exotic species children romping fireworks alchemical apparatus and even an amputation and a corpse being dissected in an anatomy hall. Only a few contain biblical scenes. Most striking are the four folding plates frightening panoramas of Judgment Day and the two unearthly frontispiece illustrations of which the first shows two men a virtuous man and a sinner in bed dreaming of their respective afterlives. Himself a tireless hymn-writer Francisci dedicated this work on Doomsday to one of the most important composers of Baroque hymns Magdalena Sibylla of Hesse-Darmstadt Duchess of WÃ¼rttemberg 1652-1712. The book includes twenty original hymns or Kirchenlieder to be sung to identified choral melodies. The presumably less well-known music for one Trostlied hymn of consolation is provided on p. 257 with accompanying bass line. This edition collates :8 - :1.8 : : 8 -::8 A-4G8: the signing of the two preliminary quires is odd but this copy is complete. The double-leaf engraving at front may have been counted as the first leaf of the first quire since the first letterpress leaf following the letterpress title is signed ":iii". Both the first quire containing the title-leaf and dedication and the second containing laudatory poems signed by S. E. Gr. zu L and by Joachimus Simon the foreword and the table of contents contain no 8th leaf. This matches other copies and seems to have been due to composing miscalculations resulting in the removal of the final blank of each quire. Some cataloguers included the two-leaf engraved title or frontispiece in their folio count counting 15 preliminary leaves and others more correctly count 13 leaves.Not in NUC; OCLC locates a single copy in an American library at Berkeley. VD-17 reveals that this edition is one of two variant typesettings with the same imprint the other is VD17 1:664300Y; priority is not known and they may be different states of the same edition. A second edition or possibly a re-issue of these sheets appeared in 1684.

Titles within ornamental woodcut border initials printer's device in colophon. 465 i.e. 495 1; 167 1; and 141 3 pp. 1 vols. 8vo. First collected editions of these "Paraphrases" of the letters of Paul which were undertaken shortly after Erasmus's revolutionary edition of the Greek New Testament of 1516. As part of that monumental reconstruction of the New Testament Erasmus' intention was to "retell" the books of the New Testament in one uninterrupted voice without the clutter of textual commentary or critical interruption. It was a bold undertaking and in 1517 Erasmus began with the letters of Paul. They were first issued separately starting with Romans in 1517; and editions appeared in Louvain Thierry Martens Leipzig Valentin Schumann and Basel Johann Froben. The collected issues - such as the three which are bound together in this exquisite volume - began to be issued in Basel by Froben in 1519; and finally in 1521 Froben issued a collected edition of all of the Pauline letters. All of the lifetime editions both separate and collected are rare on the market: the last copy of any of the above collected Pauline paraphrases to appear at auction was in 1977.

This edition contains all of the supplementary texts found in the Froben edition of 1516 including the dedicatory letter to Thomas More whose name Erasmus plays upon cleverly in the title of the work; and the letter to Martin Dorp in which Erasmus explains his motives for writing the â€œMoriaâ€: â€œMy aim in the â€˜Follyâ€™ was exactly the same as in my other works. Only the presentation was different. In the â€˜Enchiridionâ€™ I simply outlined the pattern of a Christian life. In my little book the â€˜Education of a Christian Princeâ€™ I offered plain advice on how to instruct a prince. In my â€˜Panegyricâ€™ I did the same under the veil of eulogy as I had done elsewhere explicitly. And in the â€˜Follyâ€™ I expressed the same ideas as in the â€˜Enchiridionâ€™ but in the form of a joke.â€ â€œThe â€˜Praise of Follyâ€™ is Erasmusâ€™ most famous and controversial workâ€¦ In Erasmusâ€™ lifetime the â€˜Moriaâ€™ was condemned in 1527 by the theologians of Paris for its attacks on faith and morality and again in 1533 by the Franciscans who found it full of heresies. The officials of the Sorbonne put it on the list of condemned books in 1542 and 1543 a list that was the basis of the Tridentine Index of 1564â€¦ â€œThe â€˜Moriaâ€™ may start as a learned joke to amuse a fellow humanist Thomas More but it moves into sharp criticism of contemporary mores and ends with a plea for a return to the Christianity of the Gospelsâ€¦ Erasmus writes in a Lucianic spirit of irreverent burlesque of the gods of classical mythology and light-hearted amusement at the irrationality of mankind. Folly argues that she is all that is natural youthful fecund and happy and that life would be intolerable if it were not ruled by civilized conventions which necessitate a degree of humbug and illusion. By contrast the Stoic ideal rational man is a â€˜kind of marble statue of a man devoid of sense and any sort of human feeling.â€™ She then shifts her viewpoint and lists the people who enjoy her benefits in so far as they try to preserve their illusions or are happy in their ignorance self-deception or self-love. She even adds superstitious piety to alchemy gambling and the nobilityâ€™s obsession with hunting and extravagant buildingâ€¦ â€œNext Erasmus starts to deliver a sharp and often bitter attack on all the victims of blind folly those who are deaf to the voice of true religion and lacking the gentler Christian virtues among whom are sycophants self-seekers money-makers pedants scholastics lawyers theologians superstitious worshippers of images and relics courtiers and kings worldly monks and irreligious pontiffs. This section culminates in a savage thrust at Pope Julius II the bellicose pope. The keen wit and ingenuity of the satire can be highly entertaining but there is no note of gaiety now. As Erasmus surveys the gulf between the Church and the â€˜true philosophy of Christâ€™ he moves into the final section where the alternative offered to barren scholasticism is the vision of reality taken from Plato and folly in the sense used by Saint Paul that of receptivity to the Christian message by the â€˜fool in Christ.â€™ All irony is dropped until the final short epilogue when Folly light-heartedly cuts short her â€˜hotch-potch of wordsâ€™; this is a direct and simply worded account of Erasmusâ€™ personal belief moving into an exposition of the Neoplatonist concept that the soulâ€™s ascent to beatitude ends in ecstasy a form of folly which is its supreme fulfillment.â€Betty Radice CWE Vol. 27 pp. 78 ff.

"Calvin's 'Institution of the Christian Religion' was the first systematic statement of a Reformed Church. It is the most important doctrinal work of the Reformation as a whole and provided a comprehensive theological system rivaling those of the Middle Ages . Calvinism's most important role despite Calvin's authoritarian influences was to support the movement for liberty and independence in many parts of the world" Printing and the Mind of Man 65. First published in Basel in 1536 the "Institutio was much revised taking its final form in 1559" PMM. Calvin understood the importance of vernacular translations in the transmission of ideas made possible by the printing press and prepared a French edition in 1541. This fourth edition follows closely and corrects the third edition printed in 1543. All early editions are uncommon. Calvin 1509-64 drew upon St. Augustine and Luther as well as upon classical sources including Plato and Seneca; his work addressed theological issues and also notably the relations between ecclesiastical and civil government. The contemporary annotations often callouts of classical authors and shoulder notes with a few pointing hands are most extensive in the first six chapters again in chapter sixteen on the Lord's Prayer where Melanchthon is cited but appear throughout.

. De duplici copia verborum ac rerum commentarij duo

14155374Strasbourg: Matthias Schürer 1514-1515. First edition of some material. Hard Cover. Very Good/Several related works of Erasmus collected in one binding including the first edition of Parabolae sive similia a reported 1513 edition of Parabolae was a longstanding bibliographical error and the first appearance of Erasmus's farewell letter to Jakob Wimpfeling Epistle 305. In 1509 the year Mattias Schürer completed his apprenticeship and opened his own print shop he struck an unauthorized edition of Erasmus's Adagia purloined from the first edition of 1500. Anger on the author's part would have been justified. Yet in spite of this commercial indiscretion Erasmus favored Schurer with a warm supportive and lasting friendship. In October 1514 he gave Schürer the manuscript of "Parabolae sive similia" which Schürer decided to publish in tandem with a reprint of De Copia although there are copies extant of Parabolae bound alone. It is fitting that Parabolae should be bound with Adagia in this copy since it expands on the earlier work's idea of compiling classical maxims. Parabolae that is The Parables is a catalogue of didactic similes gleaned from Plutarch Seneca and Pliny who almost never used similes in his own text. The Adagia is also the subject of Erasmus's letter to Wimpfeling whom he thanks for recommending it for a school text. Schürer's edition of Adagia of 1515 is the first to contain the printer's own "table of proverbs" to function as a key to the collection. In all Schürer published 57 editions of 15 titles by Erasmus in the five year period from 1514 to 1519 the year he died. Quarto 21 cm three parts in one volume: I: 6 73 6 leaves; II: 56 leaves; III: 4 57 7 leaves. Numerous five- and six-line "criblé" woodcut initials on black ground decorated with arabesques and figures many of them carefully rubricated. Second title page with woodcut architectural border lightly rubricated. Printer's "usui studiosorum" device on last printed page rubricated. Bound in contemporary or 17th-century blind-stamped alum tawed pigskin over wooden boards with a Cardinal's arms gilt on both boards. Clasps and catches preserved straps renewed. Some small worming at spine ends. First title leaf somewhat toned and soiled. Occasional marginalia in contemporary or early hand. Contemporary ownership inscription on title page.
