The introductory excerpt taken from an official protocol suggests that this volume of bylaws was issued in response to significantly changes at the printing shop of the Imperial Academy of Sciences which was originally founded in 1729. An increasingly complex infrastructure faster presses and greater demand required careful training of new employees and greater standardization of processes. By 1841 the Academy was able to print books and periodicals in 120 languages while also issuing various internal bulletins and publications. The year 1841 also saw the transformation of the Russian Academy into the Imperial Academy of Sciences further necessitating greater codification.<br /> <br /> The first section contains the printing shop's statutes describing its tasks main tools and methods duties of employees rules for keeping accounts dispensing materials security measures the processing of printing orders and proper storage of type among many others. Supplements include charts with information such as a personnel directory ranks and dresscode for workers as well as detailed prices for typesetting and printing orders. This is followed by a separate section of bylaws for the Foundry itself followed by charts containing information such as the required number of type characters for Russian French and German sorted by letter number and weight. Further included are various blank forms for use in keeping accounts personnel records tracking orders and creating reports. A fine-grained glimpse into the workings of an important Russian publisher and foundry in the first half of the nineteenth century as well as a window into bureaucratic and administrative habits at the time.<br /> <br /> Among the works published by the printing house of the Academy were such milestones in Russian scholarship as Mikhail Lomonosov's "Rossiiskaia grammatika" 1755 Aleksandr Sumarokov's "Trudoliubivaia pchela" the "Sankt-Peterburgskie vedomosti" and various dictionaries and scientific journals. Specimens of available typefaces were published several times in the second half of the nineteenth century such as in 1765 1870 and 1874. Adariukov also lists a specimen issued in 1841 consisting of 43 pp. He refers to all typography-related publications by the Academy as being of the greatest rarity.<br /> <br /> No copies traced at past auctions either in the West or in Russia.<br /> <br /> As of September 2025 no copies located via KVK OCLC. unknown

The Hartland Library copy with labels and manuscript notes attached to the front endpapers. RARE. The Library was formed by Edwin Sydney Hartland and was a diverse but major collection of herbals archaeology and anthropology. It was donated to Gloucestershire County Council in 1936 and was eventually dispersed around 2010. This the first edition of a digest of Mattioli's commentaries on Dioscorides expressed in the form of an encyclopedia of plants giving synonyms classification description locale and medicinal qualities and uses. A careful student of botany he described 100 new plants and coordinated the medical botany of his time in his Discorsi "Commentaries" on the Materia Medica of Dioscorides. The first edition of Mattioli's work appeared in 1544 in Italian. In addition to identifying the plants originally described by Dioscorides Mattioli added descriptions of some plants not in Dioscorides and not of any known medical use thus marking a transition from the study of plants as a field of medicine to a study of interest in its own right. In addition the woodcuts in Mattioli's work were of a high standard allowing recognition of the plant even when the text was obscure. A noteworthy inclusion is an early variety of tomato the first documented example of the vegetable being grown and eaten in Europe. There is also an early illustration of a coconut. First Edition.

His Obituary In The American Naturalist Sept 1898 Pp 717-718 Refers To A Total Output Of 143 Papers Being Reported By His Brother Which Possibly Includes Reprints And Translations As He Wrote In Both German And English And This Collection Appears Complete. Baur Was Last A Professor At The University Of Chicago 1892 -1898. Baur Wrote Extensively On Various Paleontological Topics. He Also Built On The Late Nineteenth Century Theory Of Evolution And Wrote Extensively On His Idea That Changes In Morphology Might Be Brought Out By A Change In Environment Including Nutrition Etc. Such That These Changed Characteristics Would Persist In Successive Generations So Long As The Changed Conditions Persisted For Which There Is Now Some Evidence For At Least Three Generations. He Cited Extensively To Personal Observations And Reports From Others. His Work Differs From Weizmann Etc. In That He Maintained That Changes In Environment Could Bring Out Changes In Morphology Without Changes In The Genetic Material Such Changes Persisting In Successive Generations When The Environmental Changes Also Persisted. In One Such 1891 Paper He Concludes With A Citation To Darwin's Letter To Wagner: "In My Opinion The Greatest Error Which I Have Committed Has Been Not Allowing Sufficient Weight To The Direct Action Of The Environment - I.E. Food Climate Etc. -Independently Of Natural Selection." Although Now Dismissed Some Because Of His Neo-Lamarckian Ideas His Departures From Rigorous Scientific Evidence In Genetics Is Perhaps Less Serious Than The Acceptance And Promotion Of The Ideas Of "Phlogiston" By Important Earlier Chemists And Of "Ether" By His Contemporaries Among Important Physicists; And The Emphasis Of The Neo-Lamarckians On Environmental Nutritional And Physiological Factors Is More In Keeping With Modern Understanding Of Individual Development Than The Emphasis Upon Purely Genetic Evolution Which Treats Only Classes Of Individuals By Arbitrary Groupings Into Classes Of Individuals .
