Virgil (Virgilius or Virgilio or Vergilio)Biblio.com

La Bucolica et la Georgica di Vergilio tradotte in versi sciolti &LEneide di Virgilio del Commendatore Annibal Caro

1586250702001Mantoua Italy: Francesco Osano 1586. Soft cover Ars Rustica. Very Good. Two works published separately in 1586 bound together: 1. La Bucolica et la Georgica di Vergilio The Bucolics and the Georgics of Virgil translated into blank verse. One by M. Andrea Lori: the other by M. Bernardino Danielli with the arguments. Newly corrected and reprinted. 2. L'Eneide di Virgilio del Commendatore Annibal Caro Virgil's Aeneid translated by and with commentary from Annibal Caro. A 435-year-old edition of Virgil's complete works in 17th to 18th century carta rustica thick paper binding. Collated and complete including most of the original blank flyleaves. Italian text. In VERY GOOD 16th century antiquarian condition. PROVENANCE From the Virgil Collection of Craig Kallendorf 1954 - 2023 who owned the largest private collection of antiquarian Virgil works 1150 editions not including Incunable books in the world. Only a handful of prominent institutions like the British Library had larger collections. Eighth-nine of the books in his collection were the only known surviving copies 71 only had one other known copy. He worked closely with Princeton University in helping to assemble supplement and catalog its Junius Spencer Morgan Virgil collection. Craig Kallendorf was Professor of English and Classics at Texas A&M University. He was the author or editor of 27 books and more than 170 articles book chapters and reference work entries. Among Kallendorf's groundbreaking monographs on the Virgilian tradition special note might be made of his Virgil and the Myth of Venice: Books and Readers in the Italian Renaissance Oxford: Clarendon Press 1999 which shows how the wide reading of the Aeneid accessed in both Latin and Italian editions contributed to Venetian ideology and the so-called "myth of Venice." With its publication according to reviewer Diana Robin Renaissance Quarterly 55.4 2002 p. 1394 Kallendorf is to be recognized as "the leading authority on the Virgilian tradition in early modern print culture in Italy." ABOUT THE BOOK Published in 1586 by Francesco Osana in Mantua modern Italy. Italian text. Rebound in 17th to 18th century carta rustica with its characteristic thick paper binding exposed cords on the joints and antiquarian spine writing. Wide-margined untrimmed paper. Octavo 6 1/8" x 3 1/2". Collated and complete: Book 1: 4 163 1 pp; Book 2: 4 original blank preliminary leaves for the Aeneid then 8 472 pp. followed by four original blank flyleaves. Woodcut printer's device on both Book 1 and Book 2 title page. Decorated woodcut initials. CONDITION REPORT: VERY GOOD Endpapers refreshed and without front blank flyleaf for Book 1. Both works are textually collated and complete. The Aeneid retains all of its original blank flyleaves scarce during a rebind. Exterior and binding - rubbed and soiled carta rustica thick antiquarian paper binding. Spine sun-darkened with the remnants of small round sticker adhered to it and what appears to be a tape stain. Rear board with some antiquarian ink writing. Bumped corners. Toned edges. Uncut/irregularly cut pages.

Source: WikiReyneau was a priest who served as a professor of philosophy at Toulon and Pezenas and then as professor of mathematics at the College of Angers. While he made no significant discoveries in the field of mathematics Reyneau had a talent for explicating new discoveries in mathematics. His most important work the Analyse demontree was a popular textbook in the early 18th century and was the book used by Jean le Rond d'Alembert to learn the fundamentals of the subject. In it Reyneau describes explains and demonstrates the main theories found in the works of Leibniz Newton Descartes Bernoulli and other pioneering mathematicians of the day.

(GOLD PRINTING). WELLESLEY, ARTHUR, DUKE OF WELLINGTONBiblio.com

THE WELLINGTON SOUVENIR -- A GOLDEN RECORD!

1852ST20768London: Simpkin & Marshall 1852. FIRST EDITION. 153 x 102 mm. 6 x 4". 64 pp. Publisher's deluxe red pebble-grain morocco gilt covers with graceful Romantic-style frame central panel of upper cover with gilt lettering that of lower cover with gilt ornament spine blind-stamped to resemble raised bands panels with gilt ornament gilt turn-ins pale yellow endpapers all edges gilt. With title page vignette frontispiece portrait of Wellington and three full-page engravings of battles. Printed entirely in gilt on "enamel" gloss paper. Front free endpaper with faint pencilled signature. Binding very slightly soiled joints and extremities a little rubbed trivial soiling to front endpapers otherwise quite a fine copy the text entirely clean fresh and bright with sparkling gold. This now-scarce luxuriously produced little volume celebrates the life and military achievements of Arthur Wellesley Field Marshall and 1st Duke of Wellington perhaps the most widely admired Briton of the 19th century--and does so in glittering fashion. The key facts of Wellington's life and the decisive battles of his storied career are related here in sparkling gold text and images on alabaster white pages. Poet laureate Tennyson's funerary ode described Wellington 1769-1852 as "the last great Englishman" and his death evoked great mourning in response to his life of public service. DNB notes that his defeat of Napoleon at Waterloo crushing the emperor's ambition for European dominance put him in a class of his own: "No man certainly no Briton had ever been in such a situation before in Europe the object of universal hero-worship and gratitude." Wellington was particularly notable among senior military officers for his determination to lead his troops on the frontline in battle. The three battles depicted in the illustrations here attest to this: in "The Battle of Assaye" we see him on horseback two horses were shot from under him during the conflict wielding his sword as he bears down on enemy cannon. At the "Battle of Vittoria" he is shown leading the infantry to face the enemy with bayonet fixed. And in the decisive "Battle of Waterloo" scene he is once again with the cavalry wheeling to attack the advancing French. The frontispiece shows Wellington astride his famed horse Copenhagen who was his mount at Waterloo. Our volume concludes with a chronology of principal events in the duke's life. It is notable that such a handsome memorial work was produced so quickly after Wellington's sudden death on 14 September 1852: a contemporary ad in Bent's Literary Advertiser notes our title was published on 15 November three days before Wellington's state funeral on the 18th. Copies of this work are rare: we could trace no auction sales and OCLC records only seven copies just one in North America. Simpkin & Marshall unknown

A response to Stillingfleet's 'notorious book on Idolatry among Catholics' Clancy the 1671 'Discourse concerning the idolatry practised in the Church of Rome' which was itself answered by Daniel Whitby and Stillingfleet himself. The 5pp. dedication to the queen is signed 'T. G.' for Thomas Godden pseudonym of Thomas Tylden or Tilden 1622-1688 Roman Catholic controversialist. The son of a tanner from Kent Tylden converted to Catholicism as a young man and by 1656 was president of the English College in Lisbon where he was created D.D. in 1660.

According to Bishop John Russell Tylden 'spent his life at court as though in the cloister and "he was very dear to the Queen and not disliked by the King"' ODNB.

Observations Upon Caesars Commentaries setting forth the Practice of the Art militarie in the time of th Romaine Empire for the better direction of our moderne Warres

1604H16669London: Printed for Mathew Lownes 1604. First printing. Hardcover. Good. Quarto 10.75 x 8 inches 18th century vellum over boards good copy light restoration to outer joint and inner hinges front endpapers somewhat soiled and stained two modern bookplates on pastedown and on flyleaf; with rarely seen portrait frontispiece of Caesar engraved title page 3 double-page plates 2 full page plates -- lacking one double page plate. Contents otherwise very good and clean minor occasional wear and soil occasional very short tear to edges. 7 199 1 138 pp. A copy in a contemporary binding and with all plates sold at Christie's in 2008 for a total of over $7300. STC 7490. Edmondes ca. 1568-1622 was an English government official likely in the employ of the Earl of Oxford Edward de Vere often mentioned as a possible author of Shakespeare plays. In 1600 he published a commentary on the first five books of Caesar's Commentaries dedicated to Sir Francis Vere Born about 1560 Francis was the second son of Geoffrey Vere of Crepping Hall Essex a younger son of John de Vere 15th Earl of Oxford. In this 1604 edition Edmondes augmented the previous edition with commentaries on books VI and VII and a short dissertation on the modern art of war. There is a further slight familial connection with Shakespeare. John Bernard 1604-1674 married firstly Elizabeth daughter of Sir Clement Edmondes; they had four sons who all predeceased him and four daughters. His second wife Elizabeth was the granddaughter and only surviving descendant of William Shakespeare. It is unlikely however that Shakespeare consulted Edmondes regarding the play Julius Caesar; the play was first performed in 1599 a year before Edmondes' commentary appeared. Good.
