Matching upper and lower with double blind panels gilt floral devices at corners of inner panel. Spine with 4 raised bands abbreviated title in gilt on maroon label in 2 remaining compartments with gilt devices and blind rules. Notes: Translated from Latin into Italian by Leonardo Cernoti Vinitiano.<br>Text in Italian. <br>A fine example of this monumental atlas and treatise on cartography considered to be the most influential cartographic and geographical account of the ancient world originally written by Ptolemy in Greek around 150 AD. <br><br>Claudius Ptolemy c.100 – c.170 AD was a mathematician astronomer astrologer and geographer living in the city of Alexandria then the Roman province of Egypt under Roman rule who wrote a number of scientific treatises that greatly influenced Byzantine Islamic and Western European science. His Geografia written around 150 AD is a thorough discussion on maps and the geographic knowledge of the Greco-Roman world and also serves as a handbook on how to draw maps using geographic coordinates for parts of the Roman world known at the time. Geografia draws from an earlier work by Marinus of Tyre now lost to us as well as various Roman and Persian gazetteers.<br>Geografia is divided into 8 books: book I is a treatise on cartography describing the methods used to assemble and arrange Ptolemy's data; from Book II through the beginning of Book VII a gazetteer provides longitude and latitude values for the world known to the ancient Romans; the rest of book VII provides details on three projections to be used for the construction of a map of the world varying in complexity and fidelity; book VIII constitutes an atlas of regional maps. The maps include a recapitulation of some of the values given earlier in the work which were intended to be used as captions to clarify the map's contents and maintain their accuracy during copying.<br>Geografia was translated into Arabic in the 9th century and Latin around 1406 and was a highly influential resource on the cartographic traditions of the medieval Caliphate and Renaissance Europe.<br><br> Size: Small Folio 301x 206 mm Illustration: Complete with 64 engraved maps 27 Ptolemaic 37 modern including the rare double-page world map “Orbis Terrae Compendiosa Descriptio†engraved by Girolamo Porro in addition to 14 in-text illustrations plus title vignette and chapter headpieces.

Frisches und sauberes Hardcover-Exemplar in gutem Zustand mit Original-Schutzumschlag. - Englisch. - Claudius Ptolemäus (altgriechisch Klaúdios Ptolemaíos, lateinisch Claudius Ptolomaeus; * um 100, möglicherweise in Ptolemais Hermeiou, Ägypten; † nach 160, vermutlich in Alexandria) war ein griechischer Mathematiker, Geograph, Astronom, Astrologe, Musiktheoretiker und Philosoph. Er lebte in Alexandria in der römischen Provinz Ägypten. Insbesondere seine drei Werke zur Astronomie, Geografie und Astrologie galten in Europa bis zur frühen Neuzeit als wissenschaftliche Standardwerke und wichtige Datensammlungen. Das geographische Werk hatte 561/62 noch Cassiodor in der Hand, doch erst mit der lateinischen Übersetzung einer Abschrift aus Konstantinopel, die in Florenz ab 1397 erfolgte, wurde die Geographike Hyphegesis wieder rezipiert. Ptolemäus verfasste die mathematiké sýntaxis ("mathematische Zusammenstellung"), später megíste sýntaxis ("größte Zusammenstellung"), heute Almagest genannte Abhandlung zur Mathematik und Astronomie in 13 Büchern. Dieses Werk blieb bis zum Ende des Mittelalters das Standardwerk der Astronomie im europäischen Raum. Es enthielt neben einem ausführlichen Sternenkatalog eine detaillierte Ausarbeitung des geozentrischen Weltbilds, die später nach ihm ptolemäisches Weltbild genannt wurde. … (wiki) // INHALT : List of Illustrations - Preface - Note on Citations of Classical Authors - Introduction - What Ptolemy Expected His Reader to Know - The Place of the Geography in Ptolemy's Work - Ptolemy's Evolving Conception of the World - Marinos and Other Sources - Ptolemy's Map Projections and Coordinate Lists - The Manuscripts of the Geography - The Maps in the Manuscripts - Early Readers and Translators - Modern Editions and Translations of the Geography - Our Translation - Ptolemy, Guide to Drawing a Map of the World - Book 1 - Book 2 - Book 7 - Book 8 - Plates and Maps - Notes on the Plates and Maps - Plates 1-7 following p. 128 - Maps 1-8 - Appendices - Appendix A: The Journeys of Flaccus and Maternus to the Aithiopians - Appendix B: Marinos' Calculation of the Latitude of Cape Prason - Appendix C: The Trade Route across Central Asia - Appendix D: The Breadth of the Mediterranean According to Marinos and Ptolemy - Appendix E: The Sail to Kattigara - Appendix F: The Miscellaneous Criticisms of Marinos' Data - Appendix G: Textual Notes - Appendix H: Geographical Index - Bibliography - Index.

157418848Venetia Venice Giordano Ziletti 1574-73. 4to. Hcalf from ab 1820. Gilt back. Slight rubbing to spine. 78350 pp. and 65 double-page engraved maps with text on verso of plates 130 pp5665 pp. 6 textlvs. at end with brownspots in right margin sometimes a little browning to pages few brownspots and a few textlvs. with minor wormtracts. Complete with all 65 maps called for each measuring ab. 19 x 26 cm. A great part of the maps have some background shadowing from the printers ink mainly due to the fact that this is the third Ruscelli-edition where the plates have been used before. 3 printer's wood-cut devices and 20 smaller and larger woodcuts in the text. 2 woodcuts with Ptolemy shown observing. <br/><br/><em>Third edition of Ruscelli's translation from Venice 1561. The maps are printed from the same plates with the exception of Ptolemy's map of the world for which Malomba had returned to the original conical projection of Ptolemy. Moreover one map is added: the map of "Territorio di Roma". In general the maps are enlarged copies of Gastaldi's maps from the edition of 1548 which came out in 8vo. The Ruscelli translation contains an important innovation namely the division of the world map into two parts one for the Old World and one for the New as seen on the plate "Tavola Universal" depicting the 2 hemispheres. The atlas contains 27 ptolemaic maps and 38 new. 1 World 1 Hemisphere 10 Europe 4 Africa 12 Asia and 38 others. 10 of the maps relate to America.Philipps I:380. Sabin 66505.
