All recently diligently revised and amended.</em> Londini London: Ex officina H. Bynnemani Typographi Anno Domini. 1581. Hardback greyish-brown leather binding probably 18th or more likely 19th century with maroon title label gilt-blocked title and raised bands to spine. Blind-stamped design to boards and spine. Octavo/8vo collation but small measures around 3 1/8" x 4 7/8" x 1 1/4" circa 400-500 pages see below for explanation of unusual pagination and collation</p><p>Scuffing and wear to binding some discolouration but reasonably clean. Bumping and a little tearing to corners and to head of spine. Otherwise binding firm. A little cracking to title label but intact with some discolouration. Deckled page edges which are very browned scuffed and otherwise marked. small bookseller label to front pastedown. Some marking a little staining and foxing around pastedowns and endpapers. Toning staining a little light foxing and other marking throughout. Some creasing dog-eared corners and the odd tear with loss to a few leaves including to title leaf which is missing a few characters of text at bottom left-hand corner and is quite fragile and only attached at top. Heavy ink staining to several leaves towards end of book. Occasional underlining marginalia and a little text scored out in several latter pages.</p><p>Very unusual and defective page numbering. Firstly the numbering is of each leaf not each page and the print is a little unclear for some figures. It appears to run after the initial three blank endpapers and preliminary pages that could presumably be numbered i - vi being the tile page to end of 'epistole' from leaf 1 - 20 13 or 18 25 23 - 25 iB 27 blank 20 - 35 6 64 - 72 74 74 repeating 76 76 repeating - 92. However the leaves do not appear to be pages out of order nor duplications and the pages do all seem to be in correct sequence so it appears to be a printing fault rather than a binding one. The order of the page collation is more accurate sequentially though even then there are a few oddities running after the first three blank endpapers on the basis of numbers denoted on leaves as i-v then vi-viii blank from A i - F viii then G ii G G iv G iii blank G v - T viii no use of U V no use of W X - Z viii Aa i - Ff ii Gg ii-Gg iii Ff iv Gg ii Gg iv Gg iii Gg v - Ii v with blank leaves Ii vi-vii removed and three blank endpapers. See pictures for further information. About the author: <em>John Ravisius or Johannes Ravisius Textor or Jean Tixier de Revisi</em><em> c. 1470–1542 was a French Renaissance humanist scholar and professor of rhetoric. He was born in Ravisi which is near the commune of Saint-Saulge in the central province of Nivernais. His works which are mostly on the topic of education were widely accepted and employed by French academia. Tixier eventually adopted the Latinised name Johannes Textor Ravisius Nivernensis. Per the epitaph on his headstone Tixier was born in 1470 and died on 3 December 1542. According to Victor Gueneau other scholars pretend that he died on 13 December 1524 and that his brother Jacques completed Jean's book l'Origine de l'imprimerie "The Origin of Printing". Similarly some authors report his year of birth to be approximately 1480. Tixier studied humanities at the College of Navarre. When he graduated he accepted a position in the college's rhetoric department; there he impressed faculty and students alike. In 1520 he accepted a position as rector of the University of Paris. He held the position until 1525 succeeded by William Manderstown. More than thirty editions of his principal work Officina were published as he continued to expand it. Source: Wiki</em></p> H.

Issued in six annual parts from 1700-1705 the maps are based on the new observations of the Académie des Sciences and drawn up with the assistance of Philipe de La Hire.Library of Congress:The French cartographer and engraver Nicolas de Fer was a master at creating maps that were works of art. The maps that he published were printed during the Baroque period when the decorative arts were characterized by ornate detail. De Fer’s detailed maps and atlases were valued more for their decorative content than their geographical accuracy.Nicolas de Fer was born in 1646. His father Antoine de Fer owned a mapmaking firm. At the age of twelve Nicolas was apprenticed to a Parisian engraver named Louis Spirinx. The family business was starting to decline when his father died in 1673. Nicolas de Fer’s mother Genevieve took over the business after the death of her husband. In 1687 the business was passed on to Nicolas and the profits increased after he took over the firm. Nicolas de Fer was a prolific cartographer who produced atlases and hundreds of single maps. He eventually became the official geographer to King Louis XIV of France and King Philip V of Spain.One of de Fer’s major works is an atlas titled L’atlas curieux The curious atlas.
