In-8° (220x145mm), pp. 298, (2), cartonatura rustica bicolore coeva con titolo calligrafato su tassello cartaceo al dorso. Stemma sabaudo inciso al frontespizio. Minime fioriture. Una firma antica al titolo. Bella copia in barbe. Prima edizione, molto rara. Storia araldica e cronologica dei personaggi che ebbero un ruolo di rilievo nell'Ordine della SS. Annunziata dalla sua fondazione ad opera del Conte Verde, Amedeo VI di Savoia, sino al 1785. Dell'opera doveva apparire anche un secondo volume, che, tuttavia, non vide mai la luce. Il Cigna Santi (Torino, 1725 o 1730 - ivi, 1785 ?), poeta ed erudito, membro dell'Accademia dei Trasformati di Milano, lasciò numerosi componimenti d'occasione e fu il principale librettista del Teatro Regio di Torino nella stagione 1754-55 (suoi libretti furono messi in musica dal Traetta, dal Cocchi, dal Pugnani e perfino, nel caso del suo "Mitridate re di Ponto", da Mozart, dopo che in un primo tempo esso era stato musicato dal Gasparini). Scrive a proposito della presente sua compilazione storica Gianni Marocco, nella voce a lui dedicata nel Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani (XXV, 1981): "Il 17 marzo 1785 rassegnò le dimissioni, essendo stato nominato dal re "istoriografo del supremo Ordine della Sma Annunziata". Nel clima di moderato rinnovamento culturale promosso dalla Sampaolina e dalla Patria Società letteraria (1782), e contrassegnato dal fiorire di un'erudizione: storica d'ispirazione muratoriana, egli sembra volgere tutto a interessi antiquari. e genealogici, non comparendo, tuttavia, in rapporto con gl'intelletti più vivaci della, capitale. Nel'1786 il Cigna Santi pubblicò la Serie cronologica de' cavalieri dell'Ordine supremo di Savoia... (Torino 1786). L'esemplare della Bibl. Reale di Torino presenta una dedica autografa al Vernazza ("Amicus ad amicum"). Il Cigna Santi appare vicino a personaggi di rigida ortodossia dinastica e di orientamento conservatore come il Berta e il Rangone, consigliere di Stato incaricato nell'81 di compiere approfondite ricerche per confermare la discendenza sassone della dinastia sabauda, fondata sull'interpretazione della cronaca di Ditmaro ma negata dal Muratori. I risultati obiettivi a suffragio della tesi del Rangone furono ben scarsi (Arch. di Stato di Torino, Storia della R. Casa, I, m. 2 e 3). Comunque il Cigna Santi (Memoria) l'appoggiò totalmente, anzi collaborò con l'amico a stendere i materiali accumulati in una compilazione rimasta incompiuta (dovrebbe trattarsi del ms. della Bibl. Reale, Miscell. Storia patria 64, Memorie storiche intorno all'origine di Beroldo di Sassonia).". Spreti, 999. Saffroy, I, n. 3975. Manno, I, 2621. D.B.I., cit. Italiano
Very Good English, Middle (1100-1500) Original imitation vellum. An OCLC register says "decorated with small shells and seaweed pasted on". Chipped on extremities and spine, slight pouring on paper; several tapes used at the link of the pages to binding. Otherwise a good copy. Small 4to. (27 x 18 cm). In Middle English (15th century). The first leaf attached to front cover. At end, 6 blank leaves. [46] p. with [7] blank pages, many illustrations, 1 letter with its broken seal. Separately, a facsimile of a letter from Isabella (Dona Isabel por Gracia de Dios Reina de Castilla y Leon etc. etc. A Don Cristobal Colon de Genova) to Columbus, dated 'Granada a? trece de Abril de MCCCCXCII,' with a broken seal attached. Script on vellum as well. Two registers in OCLC (1029665801 and 60764823 -This one is New York Edition-). 'Düsseldorf Edition' says "A spurious work purporting to be the logbook of Christopher Columbus, which, according to legend, he threw into the sea during a storm, and which was found on the coast of Pembrokeshire 400 years later. Written in antiquated English, with paper and binding made to imitate in color and appearance a volume damaged by exposure to seawater. "S.A.S.X. MY XPO FERENS" from cover, variously interpreted, eg. Supples servus altissimi Salvatoris Xristi Mariae Josephi Xpoferens. Forgery attributed to Karl Maria Seyppel. Printed by lithographic process on imitation parchment paper. Text and illustrations printed to appear handwritten, with many decorated initials. Accompanied by: reproduction of a letter purported to be by the finder of the logbook dated "September forth 1890"; "Don~a Isabel por gracia de Dios Reina do Castilla y Leon, etc., etc. a? Don Cristo?bal Colon de Ge?nova," supposed letter on imitation parchment, authorizing his voyage, dated "Granada, a? trece de abril de mccccxcij," with an attached seal, laid in.". This is a fine hoax on Colombus' first travel into America. It includes a map containing Cuba, San Salvador, and unknown areas with a hand drawing of Columbus as well as other illustrations and decorative borders, etc. This Edition may be printed in memory of the 400th year of '1492'. "Columbus's log of the first voyage has not survived, although we do have an abstract of it, written in the 1530s by Bartolome de las Casas. However, that actually used the "Barcelona Copy" of Columbus's original log. The chart above shows the sources that exist today in green, and sources that have disappeared in red. The chart also shows where secondary souses got their original information. When he returned to Spain in 1493, Columbus gave his original log to the Sovereigns at the royal court in Barcelona. Queen Isabela ordered the log to be copied, resulting in the so-called Barcelona Copy. The original has not been seen since, however, the Barcelona Copy was returned to Columbus just before his second voyage later that year, and remained in his possession until his death in 1506. It then passed into the hands of son Fernando, who used it when he wrote a biography of Columbus in 1538. The Barcelona Copy too was lost sometime after 1554. Sometime around 1530, the Barcelona Copy was abstracted by Las Casas into the Diario. This abstract as part of his research that led to his massive work, the Historia de las Indias. So The Diario remains our best historical record of the first voyage of Columbus. On the westward passage, Columbus kept two sets of distance figures in the log. According to Las Casas, this was done to allay the fears of the crew that they had sailed too far from Spain. The abstract is mostly written in the third person, but there are a number of large direct quotes from the log written in Columbus's own first-person.". (Source: Christopher-Columbus Europe website).

Original blue publisher's boards, 12mo; 1240 pages; Singerman lists the translation (#67) , quoting Norman Cohn: "[The] Bible of the whole voelkisch-racist movement" Singerman calls this book "Of the utmost importance for its influence on Adolf Hitler [and, by the way, Alfred Rosenberg]" Singerman continues (citing Cohn) : "Here all history was presented as a bitter struggle between spirituality, embodied in the German 'race, ' and materialism, embodied in the Jewish 'race'--the only two pure races for all the others were but 'chaos of peoples. ' In Chamberlain's view the Jewish 'race' had been relentlessly striving, down the ages, to secure absolute dominion over all other nations. If once [sic] this 'race' were decisively defeated, the Germanic 'race' would be free to realize its own divinely appointed destiny--which was to create a new, radiant world, transfused with a noble spirituality and mysteriously combining modern technology and science with the rural, hierarchical culture of earlier times. " The author was also the husband of Richard Wagner's daughter. A very important book.
