1921List2036Mt. Pleasant 1921. Limp leatherette journal measuring 6 ½ x 4 inches 170 pages. Some chips to spine fine contents. Near Fine. Christian N. Lund was born in Norway in 1846 to Mormon parents and immigrated to the United States in 1869 first arriving in Salt Lake City and eventually settling in Mt. Pleasant Utah. He was a member of the Constitutional Conventions held in 1882 and 1887 in Salt Lake City a member of the Legislature in the House in 1890 and City Council in 1894 and was appointed bishop in 1890. He did missionary work in the Pacific Northwest in the 1870s and in Scandinavia in the 1890s presiding over missions in Norway Sweden and Denmark. He served as bishop of the two Mt. Pleasant wards during a period when they were the largest wards in the church. He died in 1921. <br /> <br /> Offered here is a journal Lund kept as an alphabetical index to religious ideas with additional ruminations and philosophical musings included intended possibly as a keepsake for a family member as it was passed on to one of his grandsons following his death per an inscription inside. The entries track themes such as “Astronomy†and “The Jews†through the Old and New Testaments and Book of Mormon and are intended to weave the sources together into a single resource on religious themes. The facts that Lund highlights range are interesting and as a group the entries would be of interest to scholars of Mormon thought during the period. It is also interesting which other subjects Lund chooses to write about such as transcribing verbatim an article written about the transatlantic cable in 1921 just months before his death. In another section he lists per capita consumption of “Intoxicating Liquors†comparing it to other vices such as tobacco jewelry patent medicine and chewing bum. One page ranks the ways in which the Church of Latter Day Saints differs from other churches. Some of the lists refer to LDs-related subjects using the prefix “FOL†which raises the possibility that the volume served as his own reference for works held at the LDS archive that he had researched. <br /> <br /> Overall the volume gives an interesting synthesis of contemporary secular and religious themed entries with Lind’s interest in statistics and numbers permeating the volume and providing information on his personal philosophy. It would complement Nielsen’s autobiography and journals for scholars interested in his life and thought. unknown
338<p>A very rare model of a cross-shaped or cruciform sundial unsigned but German dating back to the early 19th century.</p><p>Cruciform models have existed since at least the first half of the 16th century. They were used for ecclesiastical purposes as highlighted here by the moto taken from Psalm 150 and inscribed below the cross: "Ominis spiritus Laudet dominum" Everything that breathes praises the Lord.</p><p>The instrument consists of two dials:</p><p>– A horizontal dial on the brass plate incorporating a compass and inscribed with two hour scales for latitudes 40 and 50 degrees north divided into 4-12 and 1-8. The axis-wire is adjusted using the latitude scale inscribed on the cross.</p><p>– A crucifix or cruciform dial whose setting is achieved by tilting the cross along the quadrant mounted on the plate and divided into 0 to 90 degrees. The hour scales are engraved on the arms and along the cross which also serve as a gnomon.</p><p>A very rare model of sundial that combines religious practice and time measurement.</p><p>While watches and clocks were already widely available at the dawn of the 19th century the construction of such a cruciform dial necessarily carried a strong symbolic meaning recalling the Christian motif of the Memento Mori "Remember that you will die."</p><p>The plate measures 10 x 7.5 cm and the dial is approximately 10.3 cm high.</p><p>Aside from its rarity this dial has a particularly interesting provenance as it was exhibited in 1984 at the famous Brussels exhibition "La mesure du temps" see the photos of the catalog page 101 issue 112.</p>
In -4°; (16), 134; cartonato moderno. Stefano Gradi (1613-1683), o anche Gradic, filosofo e scienziato croato, fu inviato precocemente da Ragusa a Roma, dove studiò in seminario e prese gli ordini secolari: nel 1661 divenne custode della Biblioteca Vaticana. In quest’opera Gradi si inserisce con veemenza nella discussione sul “probabilismo” etico, concetto di teologia morale messo a fuoco nel secolo precedente e abbondantemente dibattuto negli anni in cui viene pubblicata quest’opera. I probabilisti, in estrema sintesi, accettavano che una determinata norma morale potesse essere discussa in termini di probabilità della sua “verità”. Matematico per formazione e consuetudine, e quindi profondo conoscitore delle scienze esatte, Gradi si scontra con quanti, i probabilisti estremi, applicavano in modo secondo lui arbitrario dei concetti propri della geometria alla morale: pur essendo questo, in senso stretto, un libro di teologia morale, abbonda di riferimenti alla matematica e alle scienze, con precisi riferimenti a Castelli, Galileo, ecc., rivendicando un’autonomia delle scienze matematiche rispetto a quelle storiche e morali. La pubblicazione di questa “Disputatio” gli valse il sospetto di Giansenismo e il ritardo della sua nomina cardinalizia. Rilegato con “Oratio de eligendo Summo Pont. Sede vacante post obitum Alexandri VII...”, Roma, Tinassi, 1667 (pp. 12). Riccardi I, 617 “intorno all’opera - de opinione probabili - vedi Jang. o des sav., anno 1679” Modern paper. Stefano Gradi (1613-1683), or Gradic, was a croatian scientist and philosopher. He was early sent to Rome, from Dubrovnik, where he became a priest: in 1661 he was appointed as principal of the Vatican Library. In this work Gradi get into the disputation about the ethic “probabilism”, a theological concept defined in the XVI Century and much discussed at his time. A matematician, Gradi substains the autonomy of sciences from history and moral studies. The publication of this “Disputatio” pulled him to be suspected of Jansenism. Bound with “Oratio de eligendo Summo Pont. Sede vacante post obitum Alexandri VII...”, Roma, Tinassi, 1667 (pp. 12).
