542p. Text drawings. Age stained. Small 8vo. 195 mm. Original full cloth binding embossed in blind. Spine decorated and lettered in gilt, worn on hinge. 'This volume consists wholly of articles selected from the successive numbers of the American Messenger, to the middle of its thirteenth volume. William Allen Hallock (1794-1880) was the agent for the New England Tract Society (based in Andover, MA) when it changed its name to the American Tract Society in 1823 with the intention of becoming a national organization. The New York Religious Tract Society, considering a similar goal, contacted the New England group in 1824 about a possible merger. Hallock, believing that "the great wicked city of New York" should be its home, was influential in effecting this in 1825. He went on to wear many hats, including that of editor for the American Messenger. RELIGION BOX 10

Nissen ZBI 3661; see also: Faber du Faur "German Baroque Literature" p. 472. Trivial soiling to the vellum the seventh volume with a faint marginal dampstain affecting a few quires but not touching engravings the odd negligible blemish but AN OUTSTANDING SET the very attractive original bindings showing only insignificant wear and THE CONTENTS ESPECIALLY FRESH AND CLEAN THROUGHOUT WITH VERY FINE IMPRESSIONS OF THE PLATES.<br/> <br/> This is the first Dutch translation of Scheuchzer's "Sacred Nature" one of the most splendid German illustrated books of the 18th century presenting what surely is the most impressive combination of biblical exegesis and scientific illustration to be found in any printed book. First published in 1731-35 as the "Physica Sacra" in Latin and as the "Kupfer-Bibel" in German so-named for the amazing array of copperplate engravings this work is arranged according to the progression of books in the Bible citing passages from those chapters where phenomena from the natural world are mentioned. The typical pattern here includes a textual citation followed by the author's often lengthy remarks on the passage and in many cases a dramatic engraving to illustrate what is said. The plates are identical to the earlier editions retaining the inscriptions in Latin and German and are the work of Johann-Melchior Fuseli of the well-known Zurich family of 18th and 19th century artists. The engraved scenes are always executed with great skill are generally very animated and are often fascinating. Of the 760 images meant to illustrate the text many are strictly or primarily depictions of biblical scenes; several are simply illustrations of specimens of nature; and a large number perhaps half offer a kind of combination. An example of this last type includes a wonderful scene showing the birth of Man as related in Genesis 1:26-27 depicting not only a startled Adam in his fecund paradise but also 10 images of fetuses placentas and the skeletons of children attached like mounted specimens to the architectural frame of the illustration. According to Faber du Faur it is in this work that "the Baroque attains philosophically as well as artistically its high point and its conclusion. It is the last of those elegant works which do not really contain illustrations to a text but which are in effect composed of splendid plates with a text to accompany them." Scheuchzer 1672-1733 was a prolific naturalist who promoted at every opportunity the most modern scientific ideas though without wanting to risk the accusation of being irreverent. He says that the present work represents an attempt at finding a harmony between reason and revelation though it can also be seen as an effort to promulgate progressive theories under the venerable cloak of biblical commentary. The bibliographies disagree about the number of plates that ought to be present in this work and in other editions but ours corresponds to copies previously sold at auction as complete. Copies of the "Physica Sacra" and its translations show up regularly for sale but almost never does one see the work both complete and as here with a clean and fresh text in remarkably well-preserved and attractive contemporary bindings.
