Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) In contemporary quarter cloth bdg. Cr. 8vo. (19 x 13,5 cm). In Arabic. 60 p. Yusuf Sevki Efendi is the caliph of Ahmed Ziyaeddin Gümüshanevi (d.1311 / 1893) from the Naqshibandiyya al-Khalidiyya sect. The only known work of Yusuf Sevki Efendi is "Hediyyetü'l Zakirin and huccetü's-salikin", which was printed in Egypt. The author states that at the end of the treatise, he finished the writing of the work on 12 Zilkade 1301/3 September 1884. Since it is known that he was sent to Egypt by Sultan Abdulhamid to suppress "Ramuzu'l-Ehadis, it is possible that he also published his own work in the same period (Bulaq, 1303/1885). It is a detailed book containing the provisions and manners related to the Naqshbandi order. Among the works benefited by the author who cites a wide range of sources, which are included "sahih" of Bukhari and Muslim, Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah and Nasai's "Sünen", "Kutub-i Tis'a", and Imam Maliq's "Muwatta". In addition, Suyuti's "Camiu's-sagir", Tabari's "Mucemü'l-evsat", Münavî's "Feyzü 'l-kadir", and Beyhaki's "Shuabü'l-iman" are among his hadith sources. Not in OCLC.

plein veau fauve marbré, tit. doré sur pc. brune, dos à 5 nerfs orné de filets et doubles filets dorés,, filets à froid sur les plats, tr. jaspées, (mors marqués, coiffes affaissées avec de petits accidents, coins émoussés avec des mq. des trous de vers marginaux) On trouve en préface à ce livre une des plus belles descriptions de l’institution pourtant complexe des substitutions fideicommissaires : "D’un côté elles sont la base des maisons les plus illustres et les plus précieuses à l’État, puisqu’elles y conservent des possessions qui en perpétuent la splendeur et les services. De l’autre, elles touchent à la liberté et à la sûreté du commerce, vu qu’elles en font comme sortir les biens en les rendant inaliénables du moins pour un temps. Elles tiennent essentiellement sous ces deux points de vues, à l’intérêt général de la société". Ce texte est le traité le plus complet sur la matière, l’auteur fut un des partisans de Maupeau qui, au moment où il forma les Conseils supérieurs, le nomma avocat général auprès du Conseil supérieur de Blois.

.In this second edition of his acclaimed study of Mount Athos (for which he was awarded the 2002 Criticos Prize) the author takes the opportunity to revise and update his text and also to add a completely new chapter documenting the changes that have occurred in the twelve years since its first publication. The renewal that took place in the last quarter of the twentieth century can now be seen in its historical context and has been succeeded by a period of spiritual and cultural maturity. Not for the first time, in a world beset by political upheaval and economic turmoil, the Mountain stands as a symbol of continuity and stability, a spiritual powerhouse offering refreshment to all who turn to it.This is a history of Mount Athos from pagan antiquity to the present day.Second revised edition originally published:2002 Yale University Press.288 p. illus [some col.] Book

plein veau blond moucheté, tit. doré sur pc. noire, dos à 5 nerfs orné de fleurons et filets encadrants dorés, tr. mouchetées, (coiffes accidentées, plats et dos frottés avec des épidermures, coins et coupes émoussées avec des mq., des notes a l’encre sur les p. de garde) Serre, élève de Boutaric et professeur à l’université de Montpellier, dispensa entre 1750 et 1760 des cours consacrés aux grandes ordonnances de D’Aguesseau. Les archives du département de l’Hérault qui conservent ces cours (v. V. Chêne bibliographie) ne mentionnent pas de cours sur les testaments, mais il est probable que le présent texte soit le produit de ce cours d’autant plus que la méthode d’exposition retenue ressemble beaucoup à celle utilisée par ailleurs par le célèbre auteur. Manque à Dupin. Nous présentons ici la dernière édition de ce texte.

Chêne (p. 185 et ss.) relate de manière captivante la généalogie de ce texte et en particulier les difficultés qu’eut l’auteur pour le faire publier, le duc de Fleury refusant d’en accepter la dédicace et le dénommé Yvernès soutenant qu’il s’agissait en réalité d’un manuscrit rédigé par son grand-père qui avait été recopié par Serres. Chêne montre néanmoins combien la dernière allégation est dénuée de fondements et combien cet ouvrage constitue un des textes majeurs de la doctrine toulousaine et plus fondamentalement des pays de droit écrit du XVIIIème siècle. Édition de la seconde moitié du XVIIIème.
