1899163H3899London: William Heinemann. Good. 1899. First Edition. Hardcover. "The circumstances under which the wealth the power and the numbers of the Jewish race domiciled in this country are likely to be indefinitely increased seem to call for more prescience and thought at the hands of our rulers than have yet been bestowed upon them. To make people think is the object of this book. Should they refuse they will wake up one morning only to discover that they have parted with the realities of national life and are dominated by cosmopolitan and materialist influences fatal to the existence of the English nation." - Introduction. Chapters include: What is a Jew; The Problem in Russia; The Jew in Austria/America/France/England/The Argentine Colonies; The Aloofness of Israel; Money Lenders; The Destitute Alien in Great Britain; Zionism; "Darkest Russia"; The Conversion of the Jews; Jewish Humour. pp xvii 301 32 ads. 7.5 x 5.3 inches. Quarter-bound in black leather and olive cloth. Gilt lettering to spine. Top edge gilt. Modest lean to spine. Binding intact. Prior owner's name dated 1899 inked atop front free endpaper.

in-folio imperiale (mm 535x430), f. (5, il primo f. bianco), pp. 76 di testo italiano e francese su due colonne (caratteri tondi e corsivi di corpo e spaziatura diversa), 36 ff. di tavole f.t., 1 f. bianco. Antiporta inc. in rame disegnata da Petitot e incisa da Volpato, frontespizio, realizzato dai medesimi artisti, con grande vignetta alle armi Borbone fiancheggiate dai leoni di Spagna, 5 testate, 8 capilettera e 19 finalini inc.; 36 tavole fuori testo incise in rame di cui 6 a doppia pagina. Legatura 800esca in mezza pelle e angoli, carta decorata ai piatti, titolo oro al dorso. Grandiosa pubblicazione voluta dalla Corte Ducale di Parma con la descrizione dei principali spettacoli allestiti per le nozze tra Ferdinando duca di Borbone e Amalia d'Asburgo, sorella dell'imperatore (''Descrizione degli abiti'', ''Nomi delle Nobil Persone impegnate nel torneo'', ''Le Pastorelle d'Arcadia, festa campestre'', ''Relazione'', ''Fiera Chinese''). Brooks segnala che ne furono tirate 2 edizioni, ciascuna di 400 copie, che però non risultano in vendita nei cataloghi del Bodoni, perché l'opera fu ben presto esaurita. L'imponente apparato decorativo fu affidato a Eurimond Alexandre Petitot, architetto e disegnatore nato a Lione nel 1727 ed ormai all'apice della sua carriera di architetto di corte, in collaborazione con il giovane Bodoni, solo da un anno in città come nuovo direttore della Stamperia Reale, e quindi all'esordio della sua gloriosa attività. Le Feste sono la seconda opera in cui i due collaborano e Petitot vi figura non solo quale inventore e realizzatore dei complessi progetti architettonici, ma anche come scenografo, costumista e decoratore, avendo fornito i disegni delle molte illustrazioni dell'opera, magistralmente rese da Benigno Bossi, principale riproduttore all'acquaforte, da Volpato, Patrini e altri. L'eco delle feste e della loro pubblicazione fu molto vasto. Jean Pierre Mariette si stupiva ''à voir sortir d'une imprimerie naissante un livre si parfaitement exécuté dans toutes ses parties...un chef-d'oeuvre''. Maria Antonietta confessava alla sorella Maria Amalia di aver spesso sfogliato il ''beau livre'' per ritrovarsi con lei. Stupendo esemplare della prima tiratura, nitidamente impresso su carta assai pesante.. Brooks 6 e tavole I, III, V: ''Forse il più attraente di tutti i libri di Bodoni per la bellezza delle figure''. Ruggeri 859. Giani, p. 1-3: ''molte copie distrutte da varie circostanze e soprattutto deturpate dagli amatori di stampe...''..
...nouvelle edition, accompagnée de notes et dans laquelle les supplémens sont insérés dans le premier texte, à la place qui leur convient. L'on y a ajouté l'histoire naturelle des quadrupèdes et des oiseaux découverts depuis la mort de Buffon, celle des reptiles, des poissons, des insectes et des vers; enfin, l'histoire des plantes, dont se grand naturaliste n'a pas eu le tems de s'occuper. Ouvrage formant un cours complet d'Histoire naturelle redigé par C.S. Sonnini. 127 volumi (12,5x20 cm) in bella legatura coeva in piena pelle marmorizzata, cornice dorata ai piatti, dorso liscio ornato e dorato con doppio tassello di titolo e tomagione. --Un volume con rilegatura rifatta a imitazione, alcune cuffie mancanti o altri segni d'uso e del tempo ai margini e agli angoli. Risguardie marmorizzate, testimoni. Set completo di questa famosa edizione, con 1113 tavole quasi tutte colorate a mano e carte geografiche, più circa 30 schemi di classificazione e tabelle. Qualche brunitura a macchia o fioriture, ma bell'insieme di questa monumentale riedizione e aggiornamento dell'opera di Buffon. L'opera è così divisa: Théorie de la terre, 3 tomes; Epoques de la Nature, 1 tome; Histoire des Minéraux, 12 tomes; Des Animaux, 1 tome; De l'Homme, 4 tomes; Quadrupèdes, 13 tomes; des Singes, 2 tomes;; des Oiseaux, 28 tomes; Crustacés et Insectes, 14 tomes; Mollusques, 6 tomes; Reptiles, 8 tomes; Plantes, 18 tomes; Poissons, 14 tomes; Tables analytiques, 3 tomes. Non tutte le tavole sono numerate, e a volte non sono in sequenza, ma corrispondono al testo.Oltre al testo “classico” di Buffon sono assai importanti le integrazioni sulla base delle nuove scoperte scientifiche. Rettili e anfibi sono opera del Dudin, con 100 tavole; i molluschi sono di Denis de Monfort, con 72 tavole; uccelli e pesci sono sviluppati dal Sonnini; gli insetti da Latrelle... In sostanza, i migliori studiosi degli anni a cavallo tra 7 e 8cento furono partecipi dell'opera, rara da trovare così completa e in belle condizioni esterne.

Folio. 1 p. Copy of a court martial's judgment, sentencing the bookseller Maurice de La Châtre to be deported and imprisoned in a fortress for his involvement in the Paris Commune of 1871: "3ième Conseil de Guerre de la 1ère Division militaire séant à Versailles. Jugement par Contumace. Le 3ième Conseil de Guerre permanant de la 1ère division militaire a rendu le jugement suivant: Aujourd'hui 19 décembre 1873 le 3ième Conseil de Guerre de la 1ère Division militaire séant à Versailles, ouïr le commissaire du Gouvernement dans ses réquisitions et conclusions, a declaré le nommé Delachartre (Claude Maurice) homme de lettres et libraire éditeur, contumax, à l'unanimité, coupable d'avoir en 1871, à Paris, pratiqué des intelligence avec les directeurs et commandants de bandes armées dans le but d'envahir des places et des postes appartenant à l'état & de faire attaque et résistance à La Force publique agissant contre les auteurs de ces crimes. - 2° à la l'unanimité coupable d'avoir à la même époque et au même lieu participé à un attentat dans le but de détruire & de changer le gouvernement.

Le dit Jugement à commencé à recevoir son exécution le 30 Xbre 1873". - Lachâtre, who at this time was publishing the first French translation of Marx's "Kapital", had been able to avoid arrest by flying to Spain, where he lived in San Sebastián, near the border, under the name of "Leconte". Driven away by the Carlists two years later, he again escaped to Brussels and later to Vevey in Switzerland before finally returning to France in 1879. - Traces of folds; some brownstaining; some slight defects to upper edge.
in-4, ff. (34), pp. 1200, ff. (32), preziosa legatura coeva in pelle di scrofa su assicelle in legno, dorso a nervi, piatti adorni di vari ordini di bordure a secco, tracce di fermagli. Prima edizione latina, e seconda illustrata, accresciuta di quasi 100 silografie rispetto all'edizione del 1546 fino a giungere a 568 legni. Bock è considerato uno dei padri tedeschi della botanica moderna e fu tra i primi a cercare di classificare le piante. La particolarità della sua opera è da individuarsi nel modo sistematico di descrivere le piante basato sull'osservazione a prima vista. Nel 1539 uscì la prima edizione non illustrata ma già comprensiva della classificazione delle piante in famiglie; la presente comprende 568 silografie a mezza pagina, tratte per lo più dai disegni di Kandel, Fuchs, Brunfels; mentre le aggiunte testuali di Tessier e Gessner comprendono il primo tentativo di una bibliografia botanica. Bell'esemplare, in gran parte in buono stato di conservazione, malgrado alcuni piccoli difetti abilmente restaurati (porzione del titolo in alto a destra restaurata, con alcune lettere anticamente rifatte a mano, e strappo restaurato alla pag. 203), con illustri provenienze manoscritte sulla sguardia e sul titolo: "ex Bibliotheca Fischeriana", dedica di C.

4to. ½ p. Rare draft for a letter to his Minister of Finances, Charles Gaudin (1756-1841), asking for more information about aid to the veterans of Piedmont as they would soon be his subjects in the newly created Kingdom of Italy: "Monsieur Gaudin, je vous renvoie vos états sur les biens des camps de vétérans en Piémont. Je désire que vous me fassiez un rapport d'une page, qui me fasse connaitre 'la loi a affecté' la quotité des biens que la loi a affectés aux camps de vétérans dans la 27è division militaire, combien il y en a déjà de désignées pour ce service et ce qu'il y manque" [Mister Gaudin, I return your budget of the assets of the veterans' camps in Piedmont to you. I want you to compile a one page report for me that informs me 'the law has affected' the share of the assets that the law has affected in the veterans' camps of the 27th military division, how many have already been appointed for this service and what it lacks"]. - Because of the many corrections the letter was never signed or sent. Every line has been partly crossed out or modified by the Emperor. - Napoleon's coronation as Emperor of the French had only taken place three months prior at which occasion the deputies of the Italian Republic officially offered the crown of Italy to him. On March 17, 1805 the political transformation of the Italian Republic to the Kingdom of Italy (1805-1814) was put into effect. The letter to Charles Gaudin relates to this process as Napoleon wanted to be fully informed about the financial obligations to the veterans of Piedmont, his new subjects.

[Iacobus] Laurus and with over 40 woodcut illustrations in text representing a.o. distilling apparatus, original first 1608-edition, nice recent binding in half leather and marbled boards in fine condition, gilt lettering on spine, engraved capitals in text, text clean and bright with only some occasional foxing, 22cm., most text is in Latin, very good condition, [This is a rare first edition of Porta's work on distillation, in which he offers a compilation of any knowledge available at that time regarding experiments and observations of distillation, its methods, apparatus and applications such as the preparation of perfumes and essential oils. It includes beautiful and quite bizarre woodcut illustrations of apparatus and stills resembling animals. Cfr. Duveen (481) who describes this work "as rare as it is beautiful". Porta (1535-1618) was an Italian philosopher, scientist and alchemist, and was/is often referred to as "professor of secrets". The engraved portrait of Porta included in this work is surrounded by various figures and gives a good impression of his scientific interests: distillation, astrology, chemistry, alchemy, optics, magnetism, etc. Content of this book: Liber I: Primordia pandit distillationis eiusq[ue], causas & instrumenta (pp.1-45), II: De odoratis Aquis eliciendis (pp.46-67), III: In quo de Oleorum tractatur (pp.68-87), IV: De distillatione oleorum exocitarum plantarum (pp.88-94), V: De refinis distillandis (pp.95-106), VI: De Oleo ex Lignis extrahendo (pp.107-112), VII: De Aquis validis extrahendis (pp.113-125), VIII: Quo de extrahendis rerum virtutibus varia experimenta traduntur (pp.126-144), IX: Oleorum extractio cum praelo (pp.145-154), + 6pp. of index and colophon], V96189
