Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original manuscript book of the registers of the conjurations sessions by the first Turkish spiritualist group. 20x15 cm. In Ottoman script (Turkish with Arabic letters). [154] p., several hand-drawn ills. Group has Bedri Ruhselman, (1898-1960), Albert Braun, (Violinist and Ruhselman's violin teacher of German origin), Hans Ianma (Violin teacher), Hasan Saadeddin Bey, (Turkish spiritualist), and Doctor Zühdü Riza Bey, (Turkish musician, Kemençe teacher, a friend of Sadeddin Arel). Dr. Bedri Ruhselman (1898-1960), the founder of NeoSpiritism and "the Experimental New Spiritism". Ruhselman's point of view and a new perspective to the concepts such as creation, spirit, afterlife, birth incarnation, and rebirth-reincarnation are pioneers in the Early Turkish Republican period. Ruhselman's empirical perspective on "afterlife", one of the most important and primary subjects of theology, has made important contributions to spiritism, out of the classical standpoint. (Source: Ruhselman and his metaphysical vision, Kestel). Albert Braun was Ruhselman's violin teacher and his friend. It's said this early spiritualist group is the pioneer and elitist of Neo-Spiritualism in Turkey. He is considered a Mission Medium, a very rare category within spiritual mediumship. By definition, every medium has a varying degree of ability to tune in to spiritual "frequencies". But not all "reception" (coming from those frequencies) convey a meaningful message (sometimes if any). While mediumship is a gift (meaning that; one either has it or not); very few mediums are actually knowledgeable in spiritual matters. They simply transfer what they capture from their sensitive channels. And once in a while, mainstream media picks on certain mediums, especially when he/she delivers sensational predictions (i.e. Edgar Cayce). Bedri Ruhselman's both interest and gift was manifested since his early childhood. He was conducting spiritual sessions when he was only 12 years old. While continuing his musical education in the Prague Conservatory, in the 1920s, he studied the pioneers of classic spiritualism like Allen Kardec, Gustave Geley, Charles Richet, Leon Denis, William Crooks and become experienced in hypnotism and spiritual sessions. He also completed his medical education and graduated as a medical doctor. In 1950 by establishing Metapsychic Investigations and Scientific Research Society, he gifted an institutional identity to Neo-Spiritualism. His true duty started in 1958 by means of spiritual sessions with a guide being from higher spiritual plans which identified itself as "The Master". Ruhselman and his carefully selected mediums received a vast amount of knowledge via these sessions during a few months. That body of knowledge has been compiled as a book, which Ruhselman never claimed any ownership (stating that it's purely a gift from the higher spiritual plan). The plan has instructed that; the book was only to be released in the future - to be identified by a certain sign. That point alone commends recognition for pure selfless devotion towards undertaken duty. If the ego was in play; one would usually do anything for fame or at least to cash on the subject. But Ruhselman completes his true duty and hands over the book for safekeeping without ever mentioning one word about the content. He passes away a few months after (1960). (Source: Indication23).

Fuller title: LES PROPHETIES DE M. MICHEL NOSTRADAMUS. Dont il y en a trois cens qui n'ont encores iamais este imprimees. Adioustees de nouueau par ledict Auteur. [BOUND WITH] RECUEIL DES PROPHETIES ET REVELATIONS, TANT ANCIENNES QUE MODERNES. Contenant un sommaire des revelations de Saincte Brigide, S. Cyrille, & plusieurs autres Saincts & religieux personnages: nouvellement reveues & corrigees. Et de nouveau augmentees outre les precedentes impressions. Three volumes in one. ff. 64 leaves; 48 leaves; 64 leaves (with various errors in pagination). Loss of a corner and a few letters from one leaf of volume two. Last leaf of the third work lacks a half page containing part of the Table. Some age and damp staining. Old manuscript notes. There is also an manuscript quatrain at the end of the first volume of Centurie XI [actually 12]. It is numbered LVI or 56. "Roy contre Roy et Le Duc contre Prince / Haine entre iceux, dissension horrible / Rage et fureur sera toute province / France grand guerre et changement terrible. It apparently was left out in the printing of this edition. This is usually taken to refer to "The War of the Three Henrys" [Guerre des trois Henri - Valois, Bourbon et Guise]. Small 8vo. 170 cm. Modern full blue leather binding, with raised bands. The original French marbled endpapers are preserved. Michel de Nostredame (1503-1566), usually Latinized to Nostradamus, was a French apothecary and reputed seer who published collections of prophecies that have since become famous world-wide. He is best known for this book Les Propheties, which first appeared in 1555. The book has rarely been out of print since his death. All the early editions are very idiosyncratic and deserving of study. Nostradamus attracted an enthusiastic following who, along with the popular press, credit him with predicting many major world events. Interest in the work of this prominent figure of the French Renaissance is still considerable, especially in the media and in popular culture, and the prophecies have in some cases been assimilated to the results of applying the alleged Bible Code, as well as to other purported prophetic works.

Traité écrit à la suite des discussions de Malebranche avec le grand Arnauld qui avait cru trouver en lui un allié de Port-Royal contre les jésuites. Cette publication fut le signal d'une guerre déclarée avec Arnauld ce qui n'empêcha pas l'auteur d'être également attaqué par Bossuet et Fénelon. Le Traité fut mis à l'index pour avoir osé chercher à résoudre des problèmes insolubles. L'œuvre étudie les concepts de création et d'incarnation, de grâce divine et de liberté humaine. La beauté littéraire du Traité a éveillé l'admiration de Sainte-Beuve. L'intérêt philosophique est également de premier ordre, car le livre contient le premier exposé du système de l'occasionalisme. Leibniz le méditait en écrivant son Discours de métaphysique et n'a cessé d'y revenir, y compris dans sa Théodicée. """"L'édition de 1680 est de loin la plus conforme à l'inspiration créatrice de l'œuvre, et la plus belle aussi…Que la préférence de Malebranche soit allée à la première édition, on n'en saurait douter. Certes il recommande celle de 1712. Mais ce n'est que parce qu'elle est accordée à l'ignorance des lecteurs, et non plus comme celle de 1680, aux lumières de l'auteur… Bref, selon l'heureuse expression de M. Gouhier la première édition nous offre du Traité l'aspect que Malebranche """" a voulu lui donner"""", la dernière """" celui que le temps lui a imposé"""". Bibl. des textes philos.
