Osman Nuri Ergin was the initiator of the studies regarding modern municipalities' studies and gave so many qualified books related to Ottoman-Turkish urbanism and municipalities' studies scientifically. He was also the first scholar who was one of the architectures of municipalities' studies and history of urbanism and education. His best known book in this field called "Mecelle-i Umûr-i Belediyye". The book is one of the main sources for the history of urbanism, especially for the history of Istanbul. Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality and other metropolitan cities of Turkey function on the bases of what he declared. Since he worked as an officer for the government during the World War I, the time of Abdulhamid II and at the time of the young Republic, he was one of the figures who know the cultural and social changes in Turkish society. During this cultural transformation, he played a role of bridge in between Ottoman culture and modern day Turkey with the help of some enlightened scholars. He had so many attempts to transform Ottoman Sufi culture to the next generations. To reach this goal, he wrote so many valuable books. Although he wrote books in the fields such as Sufi order, grammar, history of arts, literature, he was not able to publish all of his works in his life. This 'Maarif tarihi' [= History of education] is still the most comprehensive corpus on Ottoman / Turkish education and cultural history.

In-12, plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos à 5 nerfs orné de compartiments fleuronnés et cloisonnés, roulette dorée sur les coupes, tranches rouges, (1) f., (22), 166 p. Edition originale et unique, rare, de cette véhémente réfutation des doctrines sociniennes, "une des plus dangereuses erreurs que le démon puisse suggérer aux hommes". Développé au XVIe siècle par Lelio Sozzini et son neveu Fausto Socin, le socinianisme connut un développement européen continu tout au long du XVIIe s. Proche des unitariens par le dogme, ils développèrent une doctrine de la tolérance en s'opposant aux persécutions religieuses, rejetaient la Trinité, la divinité de J.-C., le péché originel, la grâce, la prédestination et l'existence de l'Enfer, existence que Cordemoy défend ici avec âpreté. Abbé, théologien controversiste, docteur en Sorbonne, Louis Géraud de Cordemoy (1651-1722) devint historiographe du roi. Petit ex-libris manuscrit ancien sur la garde blanche "Ad Usum F. Gregory Riddell". Petits accrocs aux mors et coins. Bon exemplaire, bien relié à l'époque.
