1863Cat320Concord Massachusetts: Benjamin Tolman 1863. Printed broadside 11 ¼ x 10 inches. Some tearing at folds very good. A straightforward but telling piece documenting the expansion of a Massachusetts burying ground during the American Civil War signed in type by three trustees of the North Sudbury Burying Ground. As casualties mounted and remains were returned to hometowns existing cemeteries were frequently enlarged with new land enclosed and improved by contract. The specification of “25 rods†over 400 feet of wall indicates a substantial addition typical of mid-war efforts to increase capacity in established town burial grounds rather than create entirely new sites. Sudbury contributed roughly 150–170 men to Union service of whom approximately eleven died a scale of loss consistent with small Massachusetts towns and sufficient to register locally in burial and memorial practices. We find no other records of ephemera or broadsides relating to Civil War-era cemetery expansion. This notice is not at AAS. Benjamin Tolman unknown

[Raro-Vizi-Demonio-Matrimonio] (cm.16) buona piena pergamena originale semirigida con tracce di lacci (uno conservato) titolo al dorso calligrafato.-- cc. 180 nn. l' ultima è bianca. Al frontis marca tipografica con il motto "Festina Lente" all' inizio piccolo capolettera figurato a fondo nero, piccoli fregi ed legante carattere rotondo minuscolo. Opera rara, curiosa e varie volte ristampata come riferisce Graesse. Elenca in 134 capitoli vari vizi e facoltà umane e ne commenta i contenuti: Demonio, angeli, matrimonio, idolatria, spiriti, omicidio, lussuria, morte ecc. Manca a tutta la bibliografia consultata compreso Adams, Bm. Stc. German, Choix, Brunet e vari cataloghi di religione come Rosenthal n° 202 e Olschki Cat. 157 "Theology". Solo Graesse elenca 4 edizioni, la più antica del 1533 ma non siamo riusciti a determinare quale fosse la prima edizione. Alcune carte con fori di tarlo ben restaurati, frontis con antica firma cassata, ipercettibili tracce di alone ma esemplare bello nitido e genuino. Secondo il Census Iccu Sbn. questa edizione di Colonia non è posseduta da nessuna biblioteca italiana. Cfr. Graesse III 206 per altre edizioni.[f52] Libro
015104Jean-Baptiste Louvet de Couvray (1760-1797), écrivain, homme politique, auteur desAmours du chevalier de Faublas,mort de la tuberculose.Manuscrit autographe, sd [5 nivôse an 5 i.e. 25 décembre 1796], 2p in-4.Brouillon d'une intéressante lettre de défense, adresséeà l'accusateur public du département de l'Yonne. On lui faisait, semble-t-il, le reproche d'avoir recommandé un certainJean Courier, membre de la commission des passeports de la ville de Paris puis employé du Comité de Salut public au mouvement des armées de terre.En effet, ce Jean Courier avait été arrêté à Joigny sans passeport. Il fut donc traduit devant le tribunal militaire de l'Yonne «en pluviose an V». Il avait usé du nom de représentant du peupleClaude Blad (1764-1802)pour se faire héberger du 30 septembre au 11 octobre 1796 chez un menuisier et signer une pétition de ce menuisier. Il se trouve que quelques années plus tôt, sous la Terreur, la femme de Louvet n'avait dû son salut que grâce à un passeport signé de Courier.Dans ce courrier, après avoir dit que si Courier est coupable, il doit être puni, il explique longuement pourquoi et comment il a recommandé Courier, comment ils se sont retrouvés lors d'une représentation du ballet de Psyché, comment il a obtenu la recommandation en se prétendant ami de plusieurs députés et notamment deMerlin de Thionville, absent au moment de la visite de Courier. Il signale aussi qu'au 9 thermidor, il n'a pas été accusé et qu'il avait alors été employé au comité de salut public, dont Louvet avait fait partie.Provenance :Georges Cain (1853-1819), peintre, conservateur du Musée Carnavalet. Il l'avait communiqué, avec un autre document de Louvet, au moment de la publication desAmours du chevalier de Faublaschez Michaud en 1911. Le brouillon est retranscrit (p.294-295) et reproduit en fac-simile (p.296-297). En revanche, il n'avait pas été remis dans son contexte ni daté.Notre brouillon correspond aux deux tiers de la lettre envoyée effectivement par Louvet le 5 nivôse. Cette dernière est conservée par les archives départementales de l'Yonne dans la liasse L.1215. C'est cette lettre qui nous a permis de dater plus précisément notre brouillon que nous pensions légèrement plus récent (janvier ou début février).Très beau document, peu de temps avant sa mort.[370]

1997015108Editions du Rocher 1997 In-12 carré Broché, couverture illustrée à rabats
in-16, pp. 78, broch. edit. (piccola mancanza al piatto ant.). Terza edizione ampliata e definitiva di opera curiosa e decisamente non comune. Filippo Corridi (Livorno 1806 - 1877) fu brillante matematico e autore di trattati di calcolo, geometria e trigonometria, precettore dei figli del Granduca Leopoldo II di Toscana e, a partire dal 1850, direttore delle Scuole Tecniche delle Arti e delle Manifatture su nomina del Granduca. In quest'opera l'A. si difende strenuamente dall'accusa di essere stato fautore dell'introduzione della ghigliottina in Toscana, discolpandosi attraverso la narrazione dei fatti, corredata dalle pubblicazione di documenti e note ufficiali. Nel codice criminale del Governo Toscano, si ripristinava, il 20 giugno 1853, la pena capitale. La ghigliottina, che era stata fatta giungere a Firenze dalla Francia in gran segreto, era stata imballata in casse con dicitura ''strumenti idraulici''. Tale particolare spinse diversi periodici piemontesi ad attribuire al Prof. Corridi la perorazione, l'acquisto e il montaggio dello strumento di morte. A fronte di tali calunniose asserzioni i Ministri toscani tacquero e l'A. avviò una sua propria indagine che ricostruisse la vicenda, grazie alla cui pubblicazione riuscì infine dimostrare la propria estraneità ai fatti ed a riabilitare il proprio buon nome. Buon esemplare, assai fresco.. .

Si è occupato anche di diritto costituzionale, arte, filosofia e storia”. Così Diz. Biograf. Ital.,III, pp. 789-793. Esemplare ben conservato, con ex-libris al risguardo.
