162215084Amsterdam: Chez Emanuel Colin de Thovoyon 1622. Folio 310 by 200mm first French edition second issue title page canncelled with Paris imprint added to that of Amsterdam engraved title with vignettes and map 8 103 1 blank 6 107-254 pp. head- and tail-pieces with decorated initials; 27 engraved plates pictorial title page 17 maps and charts 16 double-page 1 folded 4 city views 5 text engravings scenes from Le Maire voyage portrait of Le Maire not present as usual for the French edition seventeenth century vellum. The first French edition of Herrera'a rare work here extra-illustrated with Boazio's exceedingly rare views of Santo Domingo Dominican Republic; Santiago Cape Verde Islands; Cartagena Columbia; and San Augustine Florida - first known engraving of any locality in the present-day United States. The importance of this French edition of Herrera's 'Description des Indes Occidentales' and the other 1622 editions in Latin and Dutch lies in its engraved pictorial title page with the first map to delineate California as an Island and in the inclusion of the first comprehensive account of Jacob Le Maire's voyage. The 14 maps in the Herrera's section are almost identical to those in the original 1601 'Descripcion' save for some resizing and changes in a few details. The most interesting are probably the 'Description de las Yndias Occidentalis' which depicts the Papal line of demarcation dividing the world between Spain and Portugal and the 'Description de las Indias del Poniente' which depicts a large part of the Pacific with the Moluccas the Philippines and the Ladrones accurately positioned. Le Maire and Cornelis Schouten his second in command left Texel in June 1615 on a mission to find a new route to reach the Spices Islands which would break the trade monopoly of the Dutch East India Company which had been grant a monopoly trade through the Strait of Magellan. The pair succeeded to break the monopoly by rounding south America south of the Straits of Magellan. The new cape was name Horn or Hoorn after Shouten's ship which had been lost due to fire at the Patagonian port Desire. In doing so they also dispelled the myth of a great southern continent joined to South America. They would continue to sail across the Pacific discovering numerous islands along the way and sailing up the northern coast of New Guinea. By September 1616 Le Maire reached Ternate in the Moluccas the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company. Initially well received they were soon accused of having encroached on the rights of the Company and were tried found guilty and shipped home on Spilbergen's ship which was completing its own trip around the world. Le Maire died on the return voyage and his journals were taken by the Company. Schouten and Spibergen published an abreviated version of these journal; and it was not until 1622 after a long trial that Isaac Le Maire was able to regain custody of his son's journals and to publish them in full. The four additional city views Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic; Santiago in the Cape Verde Islands; Cartagena in Columbia; and San Augustine Florida were drawn and possibly engraved by the Italian artist Baptista Boazio. The Boazio views are "probably the most interesting and important published graphic work pertaining to Drake and his career" Kraus. They are also the first representations of those four cities. Indeed the view of St Augustine is the first known engraving of any locality in the present-day United States. Their history is uncertain. There is no indication that Boazio participated to the voyage but he must have obtained a version of these views from someone who did: "It was undoubtedly in the course of the return voyage that the author of this view-plan of St. Augustine was able to copy the figure of the Dorado fish and of the other creatures decorating the plans from John White's original drawings" Kraus. John White was the Governor of the first English settlement in America who along with the other surviving settlers returned to England from Roanoke Island with Drake's expedition. Two issues of these views were printed in Leiden in 1588 both extremely rare: a large paper issue 16.5 by 22 inches was printed to illustrate Walter Bigges and Master Croftes 'A Summarie and true discourse of Sir Francis Drake's West Indian Voyage' published in London in 1589; the present smaller size 7.5 by 11.25 inches has captions in Latin and French and a numerical instead of alphabetical key and was probably printed to illustrate the Latin and French translations of 'A Summarie and true discourse' published in Leiden in 1588. While the pictures are broadly similar the present examples show greater detail whilst the larger ones include more sea monsters and other embellishments. Priority regarding date of publication between those two issues has not been established with certainty but there are indications that the smaller issue came first: <br /><br />"A close comparison of details however suggests that the smaller engravings come from an earlier set of drawings and that the larger maps represent revisions as well as embellishments probably done by the same artist" Mary Frear Keeler. <br /><br />There were two subsequent issues of the smaller Boazio plates: the first in 1589 published in Cologne used the same plates but with only the Latin text below; the plates themselves are set within the text with printed text to the verso; the second 1590 Nuremberg printing was neither printed from new plates or the plates have been heavily revised. Only two complete sets of the four large views have appeared at auction in the last fifty years each accompanied by an example of a map of Drake's Atlantic voyage: the DuPont sale at Christie s in 1991 for $231000; and bound into the Macclesfield example of Saxton's atlas Sotheby's 2007 for £669600. A large coloured view of Cartagena was sold at Christies in 1996 for $16100. <br /><br />There is no record of any copy of the 1588 smaller size issue having gone through auction. In 1970 Kraus p.156 estimated that they were eight recorded complete sets of the large Boazio plates and seven complete sets of the smaller plates 1588 and 1589. <br /><br />OCLC records eight complete sets of the large plates but only two complete sets of the small 1588 plates: New York Public Library and the Huntington Library. There is an incomplete set lacking San Augustine of the smaller 1588 plates in the Kraus' Sir Francis Drake Collection housed in the Library of Congress. Of the 1589 small plates we were able to trace nine complete examples. <br /><br />A comparison of the Boazio maps in the present book with the plates in the Huntington Library New York Public Library and the Library of Congress confirm that the 4 sets are identical.

Le Maire's journal which occupies pp. 107-174 of this book describes the voyage of trade and discovery launched by one of the most aggressive of Netherlands traders in this era of Dutch expansion. The expedition sailed around Cape Horn explored the Pacific coast of South America and pursued the search for Terra Australis. Inspired in part by Quiros and motivated by Dutch trading zeal this was the essential precursor to Tasman's voyage; indeed Tasman made great use of Le Maire's mapping of the ocean. The Le Maire voyage the last of the seventeenth century expeditions to search for the unknown continent from the east was responsible for extensive discoveries in the Pacific recorded in excellent detail on the numerous maps published here. These include maps of Le Maire's Pacific route and of New Guinea the latter definitely establishing it to be an island. There are also five engraved views showing the expedition in Patagonia a Polynesian sailing canoe the anchorage at Cocos Island natives at Cocos and the isle of Hoorn. The first section of this work is the first French and second edition overall of a portion of Antonio de Herrera's Historia General first published in Madrid in 1601. This is one of the classic descriptions of the Spanish conquests in the New World with important maps of the West Indies the Americas the coasts of Central and South America the interior of Mexico Terra Firme and the west coast of South America including some of the most important maps relating to the Pacific made to the time. The third section of this volume consists of brief accounts of other voyages into the Pacific and the account of Pedro de Cevallos of the Spanish possessions in the New World. Two issues of this French translation were printed in Amsterdam in 1622. This copy has the first imprint recorded by Wagner. There were also Latin and Dutch editions in the same year differing slightly in their makeup; Wagner assigns priority to this French edition.

163989174Lugduni Batavorum Leyde Leiden: Ex Officina Elzeviriana 1639. Fine. The very first Persian grammar. Ex Officina Elzeviriana Lugduni Batavorum Leyde Leiden 1639 15.3 x 20.8 cm 2 volumes reliés en 1 Rare first edition. Full vellum binding over boards with flaps smooth spine title inked partly faded at the spine head some blemishes on the boards edges spotted red.A fine and rare copy. Booksellers descriptive labels pasted on an endpaper.Backer & Sommervogel VIII 1339-1340 considers the two parts as separate works. Willems 490 clearly explains that the two parts form a single title published at once and 477 for the Persian grammar which forms a separate title and constitutes the second attempt of its kind for Western use. A most curious composition by the Spanish Jesuit Jeronimo Espeleta 1549-1617 who adopted the name Javier out of deference to his relative the famous Apostle of the Indies presented by a Dutch Protestant Louis Dedieu 1590-1642 with the aim of demonstrating that Catholics in the missions of the East deliberately altered sacred texts and intermixed them with non-canonical fables. Consequently this very first account of the life of Christ and Saint Peter in Persian produced by this devoted missionary at the request of the Mughal emperor Akbar the Great attracted the attention of the Index particularly on account of Dedieus comments. This publication notably offers readers the very first Persian grammar issued ten years before John Greaves together with an excerpt from the first book ever printed in Persian: Jacob Tawuss translation of the Pentateuch. Provenance: William Bolts with his autograph ownership inscription at the head of the title-page: Gulielmi Bolts.William Bolts 1739-1808 a Dutch merchant active in India is best known for his celebrated Etat civil politique et commerçant du Bengale 1775.

It opens with a dramatic play followed by emblemata songs love and wedding poetry and ends with psalms highlighting Hooft's complete skillset in the literary realm.

162122956Rotterdam: Jan van Waesberghe III 1621. Contemporary calf spine richly gold-tooled in compartments with red title label lettered in gold gold-tooled board edges. 8vo. With an engraved ornamental title-page with the title in an oval cartouche and 4 roundels in the corners with scenes from the four plays; 4 full-page engraved plates with similar scenes one in the preliminaries of each play. Each of the four parts starts with a letterpress title-page with the publisher's device of Van Waesberghe. Further with woodcut tailpieces woodcut decorated initials 3 series and headpieces built up from arabesque typographic ornaments. 4 parts in one volume. First and only edition of four morality plays or dialogues often wrongly attributed to the famous Antwerp rhetorician Jean Baptiste Houwaert 1533-1599. In fact they were written by Antwerp rhetoricians ca. 1550 when Houwaert was only about seventeen. It has mistakenly been described as a second edition of Houwaert's Den handel der amoureusheyt Brussels 1583 - see Bibl. Belg. III p. 538 H 189 bis but in fact it has nothing to do with that work: if Houwaert wrote anything for the present edition it would be the entr'actes of the third play.After four preliminary poems on 5 pages by a poet calling himself Niet Snel Al-be-recht four plays follow:1. Verscheyden schoone spelen van zinnen van Aeneas ende Dido A1-F3; 43 ll. written by the rhetorician Jacob de Mol of the Chamber of rhetoric De Goudsblom in Antwerp performed for the first time in 1552 cf. Vinck-Van Caeckenberghe in her book on Cornelis van Ghistele 1996 who attributes this play to Van Ghistele.2. Verscheyden schoone spelen van zinnen van Narcissus ende Echo &c. F4-P7; 76 ll.: three separate plays together 2193 verses by Colyn Keyart with entr'actes possibly by Johan Baptiste Houwaert.3. Verscheyden schoone spelen van zinnen van Mars ande Venus &c. Q1-Z1; 57 ll.: three separate plays together 1128 verses probably by Smeecken.4. Vier schoone spelen van zinnen van Leander ende Hero Z2-Gg2; 57 ll.: this play according to Knuttel also by Colyn Keyart is preserved only in this edition.The book is a very important source for the history of the rhetoricians in the Southern Netherlands.One plate shaved otherwise in good condition.l Bibl.

Parisiis Paris Paris 1607 10.6 x 17.1 cm Relié First edition of the work on ancient Nîmes by Professor Johann Jacob Grasser Swiss by birth but a resident of Nîmes at the time of the publication. A scholar who accumulated titles throughout his life he was poet laureate historian theologian archaeologist and pastor as well as Imperial Count Palatine Knight of the Order of the Golden Spur and Roman Citizen Comes sacri Palatii et Consistorii imperialis Eques Auratus et Civis Romanus. Grasser dedicated this work to his travelling companions Lucas Liechtenhan and Georg Eckenstein. His peregrinations across early seventeenth-century Europe brought him to witness several landmark events of his age among them the execution in 1606 of Henry Garnet one of the conspirators in the notorious Gunpowder Plot. Pastiche binding in brown percaline brown shagreen lettering-piece marbled paper boards with a mottled pattern. Lettering-piece rubbed and lifting at the lower left corner; headcaps board edges and corners very slightly worn. Two tears to the upper portion of the title-page marginally affecting the text; browning and a stain in the margin of the same leaf. A fine copy otherwise. Two stamps to the title-page one armorial the other from the library ""V. Rhedigersch. Stadtbibliothek Breslau."" ""During the three years Grasser spent at Nîmes as a professor at the Collège des Arts he had ample time to study our antiquities and examine them first-hand; accordingly his descriptions and transcriptions are generally accurate at least in the relative sense that the word carried in the sixteenth century. He appends the following description to the two lines of our inscription: In superiori huius tabulæ parte radius quo textores utuntur; inferiore autem forfex visitur; adeo ut liqueat mechanicas artes apud veteres honorifice habitas fuisse p. 76. The term tabula used by Grasser is well chosen and proves that he had seen the stone in person. It is in fact a stele of cold stone no more than a decimetre in thickness.""
