Very Good German Original wrappers. 12mo. (16 x 11 cm). In German. 71, [1] p., [12] unnumbered b/w plates. Very rare first edition (from first 1st-5th thousand impressions and both in scarce institutional holdings and market rarity) of this fourth book of "A thousand and one nights" series, titled 'The Caliph Harun Al-Rashid' with fine illustrations edited by Heinrich Wolgast, (1860-1920), a German educator and pedagogue. Close to social democratic ideology, Heinrich Wolgast became known as a literary pedagogue. He criticized a "specific" juvenile literature which, as trivial mass literature, only satisfies the need for entertainment, and called for an artistic education of the youth through aesthetically demanding literature. In 1888 Wolgast became a co-founder of the "Youth Writings Committee" of the "Association of Hamburg Elementary School Teachers". As a co-founder of the "United German Examination Committees for Youth Writings", he acted from 1896 to 1912 as the editor of the magazine "Jugendschriften-Warte". This small and very collectible book published by Otto Zimmermann reflects the pedagogical concerns rather than the true harsh, erotic, and imaginary atmosphere of the Arabian Nights. Only one printed copy in OCLC 76105214 (German National Library, Leipzig = Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, Leipzig).

Scarce bilingual statutes in French and Ottoman Turkish of the Imperial Ottoman Baghdad Railway Company printed at the "De Castro" Press one of the earliest Jewish printing houses in Galata. This edition includes the second and third series together of the Emprunt Impérial Ottoman 4% du Chemin de Fer de Bagdad Ottoman Imperial Loan 4% of the Baghdad Railway and reflects the contractual framework of the railway's financing. The first series was originally issued in 1905. ON "DE CASTRO" PRINTING HOUSE: In 1808 a work titled Tikuney Zohar was printed at the Hebrew printing press established by Yitshak ben Avraham Castro in the same year. It appears that the press did not publish any works until 1823 when printing resumed. From that year onward books bore the imprint "Yitshak de Castro and Sons." The place of printing was recorded as "el Saray de Ingiliz the English Palace." Castro who did the typesetting of the books in his own home used the English Palace in Constantinople as the printing house. This press primarily published Ladino works translated from Hebrew. Among these were books such as Ben Sira Sefer ha-Yashar and Kav ha-Yashar along with various collections of responsa and sermons. The most remarkable works published by this press were two books written in opposition to Christianity and British missionary activities. The press remained active until 1848 closing after the death of Yitshak Castro. After 1849 two Hebrew printers were active in Istanbul: Nisim de Castro and Moshe de Castro. They are believed to have been the sons of Yitshak Castro and following their father's death each established his own independent printing house. Between 1849 and 1850 Nisim de Castro's press produced three books two in Hebrew and one in Ladino. Moshe de Castro's press issued two Hebrew works one in 1849 and another in 1862. This press continued to operate under the name "Castro Press" publishing two additional Ladino books in 1877 and 1925. In 1853 Leon Haim de Castro likely a descendant launched and edited Or Israël The Light of Israel the first Jewish newspaper published in Istanbul. Meral.

Kiepert, (1818-1899), was born in Berlin. He traveled frequently as a youth with his family and documented his travels by drawing. His family was friends with Leopold von Ranke, who inspired Kiepert's creative endeavors. Kiepert was taught by August Meineke in school. Meineke influenced Kiepert's interest in classical antiquity. He attended Humboldt University of Berlin. He studied history, philology, and geography. He published his first geographical work, with Carl Ritter, in 1840, titled Atlas von Hellas und den hellenischen Kolonien. The atlas focused on ancient Greece. In 1848 his Historisch-geographischer Atlas der alten Welt was published. In 1854, his atlas, Atlas antiquus was released. It was translated into five languages. Neuer Handatlas über alle Teile der Erde was first published in 1855. In 1877 his Lehrbuch der alten Geographie was published, and in 1879 Leitfaden der alten Geographie, which was translated into English (A Manual of Ancient Geography, 1881) and into French. In 1894 he created the first part of a larger atlas of the ancient world titled Formae orbis antiqui. He traveled to Asia Minor four times between 1841 and 1848. He created two maps of the region, including Karte des osmanischen Reiches in Asien, in 1844. Kiepert taught geography at the University of Humboldt-Berlin starting in 1854. He taught at the university until his death. Akyol, article 536.; Dagtekin p. 22 (With detailed bibliography on Kiepert's maps). Rare. Preserved in a frame, will be sent without its frame.

Very Good Arabic Original brown half leather bindings in Egyptian style, raised six bands to spine, title gilt on the second, volume nos on fourth, and alphabetical with the historical content of the volumes on sixth compartments and "Mahmoud Al-Tawawî" name. Minor foxing on some pages. Overall a very good set. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Arabic. 14 books are complete set in 7 volumes. Extremely rare first printed edition of the most comprehensive and complete corpus on Baghdad city, which includes Al-Baghdadi's first-hand account of the collection of hadiths, biographies, and his travels in the 11th century Baghdad in traditional "al-râwî" style. Al-Baghdadi is known as a Muslim traveler in the pursuit of knowledge who compiled hadiths and traveled to many Islamic cities. He was born on the 24th ?jumada II, 392 (1002) at Darzidjan, a large village on the west bank of the Tigris below Baghdad. The son of a khatib [i.e. preacher], he began his studies very early and spent his youth traveling in search of ?adith. In this way, he visited Basra, Nishapur, I?fahân, Hamadân, and Damascus. Finally settling in Baghdâd, he held the office of a kha?îb and this was the origin of the name al-Khatîb al-Bag_dadi. After completing his education, he spent more than twenty years of his time writing "Tarikh Baghdad". He finished his corpus in 444 AH [1052-53]. He was a fellow student of Rîsürrüesâ Ibn al-Muslima who was the vizier of the Abbasid caliph Kâim-Biemrillâh. The vizier took Khatib, whom he appreciated in the science of hadith, under his patronage. The Abbasid caliph, therefore, ordered Khatib to be given permission to take hadith lessons from him. Khatib started to narrate hadiths from "Tarikh Baghdad" to his students here in his house near the Nizâmiya Madrasa, on the other hand, he started to read the books for which he had permission to narrate from many teachers, also write the books he planned. Several years after, the Turkish commander Besasiri (?-1060), who was a supporter of the Fatimid Caliph Mustansir-Billâh, entered Baghdad with the encouragement of the Fatimid caliph, deposed the caliph, and killed Ibn al-Muslima. Some members of the Hanbali sect, who had a grudge against Khatib because of what they wrote against some Hanbalis in Tarikh Baghdad, started to disturb him by taking the opportunity to kill the vizier. Therefore, he had to flee to Damascus. In his masterpiece, Khatibi, in addition to his account and descriptions of the city during his time in Baghdad, 7831 figures of people in total who lived or came in Baghdad before 450 (1058), statesmen such as caliphs, viziers, commanders, poets, judges, and other professions. This is an alphabetical work giving information about biographies of these figures, but it starts with the name "Muhammad" referring to the Muslim prophet. The first volume is about the establishment of Baghdad in the pre-Islamic period, its conquest by the Muslims, and its history. This masterpiece of him, published in fourteen volumes, is the most comprehensive corpus written on Baghdad in the Islamic world including the city's topography, history, et alli.
