181269850London: T. Cook 1812. This progress Hogarth's last is based on the disorderly riotous Oxfordshire election of 1754 in which the Duke of Marlborough a Whig "the New Interest" challenged the entrenched Tories "the Old Interest" in the established stronghold of the latter party. Aimed at the upper middle and upper classes this series shows the cynicism of the aristocratic class toward electoral politics and delineates their attempted manipulation of the populace. It depicts politicians of both parties using slogans flattery bribery alcohol food and trinkets to expoit the population in the interests of their own undemocratic ambitions. It exposes both parties as exciting the most degrading proclivities of the least able sections of the electorate the poor the simpleminded the maimed the dying to produce a violence and an anarchy that ultimately envelops all and threatens the very ambitions they sought to satisfy.

The British Admiralty claimed the rights to publish any material which had been generated on its ships during its missions of exploration and were generally scrupulous about depriving the seamen on board of their journals whenever they returned to port. The publication of Cooks' narrative of his Third Voyage - notoriously cut short by his death in Hawaii - was seen as a lucrative means of recouping monies spent upon the enterprise; an eager public keen to read of his exploits were not about to prove them wrong. Not everybody could afford to pay the sums expected to purchase the work however and few wanted to deal with its quarto format with accompanying maps so the enterprising George Kearsley publisher saw his way clear to producing an abridged smaller format version which suited the market admirably. The Admiralty were not so keen to see funds diverted away from them like this and entered into a battle of words with the canny publisher. As a result the Preface to the volume is both a long apology and an explanation as to Kearsley's altruistic reasons for publishing it. Possibly due to the acrimony surrounding the publication the main bibliographer of works by and about Cook Beddie overlooked the second edition in his listings this is the fourth. The book is of interest also for the fact that it reproduces the Royal Society Medal presented to Cook post-mortem - designed by Pingo and engraved here by Trotter - and goes into a fair amount of detail about this award. See: Beddie 1547; Forbes "Hawaiian National Bibliography" 68. This copy of the work was previously owned by Sir Joseph Palmer Abbott the distinguished Australian politician and solicitor. G.

In Firenze, per Domenico Manzani, 1605, in-8 piccolo, cartonatura marmorizzata del primo ottocento, pp. 45, [3]. Con marca xilografica sul front. (un gatto che aziona un buratto, riferimento all'Accademia della Crusca) diversa da quella segnalata in ICCU. Seconda edizione (la prima censita in ICCU è del 1583). Raro. Frontespizio con alcuni antichi restauri reintegrativi (ben fatti). B.IN.G. 448.
in-12, pp. XLVIII, 275, antiporta inciso da Le Bas, titolo in rosso e nero; leg. coeva in p. pelle, titolo in oro su tassello granata, fregi in oro su dorso a nervi. Edizione originale, rarissima (''Édition originale extrêmement rare''; cit. Oberlé, 108), di uno dei ricettari più importanti del XVIII secolo, a cui fecero seguito numerose ristampe, in 3 volumi, aggiornate ed aumentate dall'autore, che fu maître d'hôtel del Duca di Rohan.. La prefazione non firmata, ma in realtà attribuita da Barbier e Simon ai padri gesuiti Brunoy et Bougeant, presenta un'interessantissima storia della cucina e descrive la rivoluzione culinaria che prese piede tra il 1715 e il 1750 in Francia, ovvero il tramonto di una civiltà gastronomica che resisteva da oltre tre secoli e la nascita di un'altra tradizione di natura opposta, la Cucina borghese. «L'ancienne cuisine était fort compliquée et d'un détail infini: la cuisine moderne est une espèce de chimie. La science du cuisinier consiste à décomposer, à faire digérer et à quintessencier les viandes; à tirer des sucs nourrissants et pourtant légers, à les mêler et confondre ensemble, de façon que rien ne domine et que tout se fasse sentir...une harmonie de tous les goûts réunis ensemble.» (dalla prefazione). Splendido esemplare, assai fresco (salvo primi fogli con uniforme e lieve brunitura), marginoso, al contropiatto ant. Ex-libris di Raymond Olivier, tra i più rinomati chef del XX secolo che fu anche proprietario de ''Le Grand Véfour'', il primo e più antico ristorante di Parigi..

Volume in 8° antico (cm. 12 x 9), legatura coeva in piena pelle, titolo impresso al dorso a cinque nervi, inciso e decorato in oro a scomparti, sguardie, frontespizio con bella e grande marca xilografica (antica firma d'appartenenza cancellata con inchiostro), dedicatoria dell'editore al principe Vittorio Amedeo di Savoia, sommario, 8 cc., 393 pp., bianche. Si tratta della rara edizione torinese (la prima veneta è del 1583) di questo celebre trattato che ebbe una rinomanza enorme tanto da vendere circa trenta edizioni nel corso di un secolo. L’opera in lingua italiana del medico bolognese del XVI secolo Baldassare Pisanelli (notizie 1559 -1583), allievo del più famoso Aldovrandi, è una disamina accurata delle virtù e difetti dei più comuni cibi, frutti e liquori. Insegnamenti per la preparazione e la cottura. Consigli per la scelta degli alimenti. Di ogni cibo e' riportata la storia e la considerazione di esso presso gli antichi. Il testo inizia con la Tavola delle Cose che nella presente opera si contengono: si elencano in voci alfabetiche tutti i cibi commestibili atti a preparare le ricette culinarie che seguono. Stampata in bel corsivo tondo, alcuni capilettera e finalini xilografici, una lieve ed uniforme brunitura dovuta al tipo di carta, un accenno di gora al margine inferiore delle prime ed ultime pagine. Esemplare in più che buono stato di conservazione. Ricco di nozioni a dir poco curiose. Di grande rarità e notevole importanza.
Milano, coi Tipi di Giuseppe Bernardoni, 1850/1851. Due volumi in 8vo (cm. 23,5); copertine originali stampate in rosa con titolo incorniciato; pp. XXII, (2), 102; XXX, (2), 111, (1). Bella copia stampata su carta pesante; ex libris nobiliare ai due volumi. Astuccio. Ad ogni volume è preposta una prefazione con cui il Rajberti espone scherzosamente le ragioni che lo portano a scrivere questo “frammento o fetta di galateo che tratta di un paio d’ore giornaliere che si consumano a tavola”. Il libro non è dedicato né al popolo, che ha scarse possibilità di imbandire pranzi, né al ceto alto che non ha bisogno d’insegnamenti. Il Rajberti vuole semplicemente sgombrare la mentalità borghese sia dalle forme esteriori dell’etichetta scimmiottata dall’aristocrazia, sia dagli altri pregiudizi che riescono a rendere penosa la parte dei convitati. Così mentre egli esorta ad abolire le formule troppo cerimoniose, non trascura pure di dare con gaiezza alcuni consigli pratici sulle singole portate, che da raffinato buongustaio milanese, combattendo la mania dell’esotismo, sceglie fra le tipiche della sua città.

18004585<p>Single broadsheet 60 x 44.5 cm folded. A very good copy.<br /></p><p>A rare survival of such an ephemeral piece unrecorded on ICCU: a large broadside issued during the nine-month occupation of Rome following the fall of the Roman Republic and proclaiming a complete revision of the running of the city's public market to prevent "hoarders and scalpers" from inflating food prices beyond the means of the "most sensitive" members of the populace during this tumultuous period.</p><p>The edict instructs for example all retailers of vegetables and fruits to arrange contracts exclusively during daylight hours and only under their official banners; any retailers found bringing or intending to bring wholesalers into the marketplace will be considered in contravention of the law. Retailers are also prohibited from forming collective buying groups which lead to 'infamous monopolies'. Further regulations touch on sellers of poultry interactions between retailers and wholesalers and the physical locations of permitted activities. The trades in domestic pigeons and wild game however are exempted from these stringent regulations.<br /><br />The broadsheet also gives details of the enforcement of the new rules. Anyone not complying with the regulations after three days of their posting will suffer the consequences and trials of the accused will take place between 22 and 24 hours and for 1 hour the following morning in the market square itself. The penalties are stiff: for the first offence 25 scudi; for the second 50 scudi and a public beating; while the third warrants a 100 scudi fine and 5 years of public labor. Fines will also be imposed for passing false currency. The edict ends with a stern public hygiene order reminding all retailers of the prohibition of fish-selling in the marketplace. The public is also ordered to make use of the fountains in a civilised manner and not to throw rubbish into the fountain or onto the streets.</p><p>The Piazza Navona became the official market square of Rome in the 15th century and remained so until the 1860s when the site was transferred to the Campo de' Fiori. Produced during a period of tremendous political upheavel the present document provides us with a surprisingly intimate insight into the problems of running such an enormous concern. As the broadside notes the Papal Government had formerly been responsible for the orderly running of the marketplace but in 1798 the short-lived Roman Republic based upon the principles of the French Revolution had seized power and exiled the Pope. According to the document many "abuses" were committed during the "so-called" Republican tenure and indeed the "greed and malice of those who have been able to evade the rules" has led to the need for tighter regulation. Today it complains many dealers hoard more than they sell rendering public markets 'inutili' and driving food prices far higher than they should be in turn affecting the "most sensitive" segment of the population. The present edict was issued under the authority of His Excellency Diego Naselli a Neapolitan commander whose troops had invaded the Republic in September 1799. However by July 3rd seven months after the edict's publication the city was returned to the authority of the Pope.</p><p> Unrecorded in ICCU or OCLC.</p> Lazzarini
