All editions of this groundbreaking work of military education are uncommon perhaps a couple of dozen locations world-wide for all just 8 for this inevitably uncommon at auction. Landmann 1741-1826 had taught for many years at the École Royale Militaire in Paris before his appointment in 1777 as professor of fortification and artillery at the Royal Military Academy: "A letter from the Board of Ordnance to the lieutenant-governor of the academy introduced him as a gentleman who 'has seen a great deal of service and acted as ADC to Marshal Broglie in the last war'. He was highly thought of and was a technical scholar who had great influence over the many young men he taught for a period of nearly thirty-eight years" ODNB. His clever adoption of the catechetical form to inculcate the basics of the complexities of fortification was ahead of its time and clearly effective. Octavo 210 x 130 mm. With 3 engraved plates at the rear. Contemporary full calf red morocco longitudinal label to spine. Bound with half-title. Slightly rubbed particularly at the extremities front joint cracked to the cords but holding front board a touch discoloured endpapers lightly tan-burned text mildly toned but overall a very good copy. unknown

Table of contents for the first volume. The first and second volumes consist of classic grammar rules in Arabic. De Sacy was a French nobleman linguist and orientalist. In 1781 he was appointed councilor in the cour des monnaies and was promoted in 1791 to be a commissary-general in the same department. Having successively studied Semitic languages he began to make a name as an orientalist and between 1787 and 1791 deciphered the Pahlavi inscriptions of the Sassanid kings. In 1792 he retired from public service and lived in close seclusion in a cottage near Paris till in 1795 he became the first and only professor of Arabic in the newly founded school of living Eastern languages École speciale des langues orientales vivantes. During this interval Sacy studied the religion of the Druze the subject of his last and unfinished work the Exposé de la religion des Druzes 2 vols. 1838. He published the following Arabic textbooks: Grammaire arabe 2 vols. 1st ed. 1810 Chrestomathie arabe 3 vols. 1806 Anthologie grammaticale 1829. In 1806 he added the duties of a Persian professor to his old chair and from this time onwards his life was one of increasing honor and success broken only by a brief period of retreat during the Hundred Days. He was perpetual secretary of the Academy of Inscriptions from 1832 onwards; in 1808 he had entered the corps législatif; he was created a baron of the French Empire by Napoleon in 1813; and in 1832 when quite an old man he became a peer of France and regularly spoke in the Chamber of Peers Chambre des Pairs. In 1815 he became rector of the University of Paris and after the Second Restoration he was active on the commission of public instruction. With Abel Rémusat he was joint founder of the Société asiatique and was inspector of oriental typefaces at the Imprimerie nationale. In 1821 he was elected a member of the American Antiquarian Society. Edward Said and other modern scholars have given critical attention to the theoretical foundations of "orientalism" in works like 'Chrestomathie' and 'Grammaire arabe'. Wikipedia.
