1775371623Philadelphia: James Humphreys 1775. First edition. 4 iv 25 1pp. 8vo. Later wrappers. Perforated stamp on title and terminal leaves. First edition. 4 iv 25 1pp. 8vo. Revolutionary-era sermon dedicated to George Washington in which Duché urges the people of Philadelphia to stand fast despite the unnaturalness of being in conflict with their fellow British subjects. "We venerate the Parent Land from whence our progenitors came.But if we are to judge from the late ungenerous and ill-digested plans of policy which have been adopted by those whom she hath entrusted with the powers of Administration we cannot but think that they began to be jealous of our rising glory and from an ill-grounded apprehension of our aiming at independency were desirous of checking our growth." <br /> Jacob Duché 1737-98 was born in Philadelphia and educated there before studying at Cambridge University. He returned to Philadelphia and eventually became rector of Christ Church. His early zeal for the revolutionary cause was such that he was appointed chaplain to the Continental Congress. After the Declaration of Independence and the capture of Philadelphia by General Howe Duché had a change of heart and wrote George Washington asking him to urge Congress to recall the Declaration and negotiate a peace. He was branded a traitor by his former followers and went into exile in Great Britain before returning to his beloved Philadelphia in 1792 to live out his final years.

WRITTEN ON THE BOTTOM EDGE OF THE VOLUME: "De astrolog: divinatrice. Erasti.Disputation. / De medicina Paracelsi.Pars I." VERY RARE. First edition. THOMAS ERASTUS' DISTPUTATIONS CONCERNING ASTROLOGY AND THE NEW MEDICINE OF PARACELSUS. First Editions. bound with: DISPUTATIONUM DE MEDICINA NOVA PHILIPPI PARACELSI PARS PRIMA: IN QUA QUAE DE REMEDIIS SUPERSTITIOSIS & MAGICIS CURATIONIBUS ILLE PRODIDIT PRAECIPUE EXAMINANTUR. . . This is one of two books written by Erastus concerning divining astrology especially directed to certain persons named in the letter of Erastus in this case the primary being Christopher Stathmion whose last letter is dated from 1559. A second part was issued for the DE MEDICINA not present here. Thomas Erastus 1524-1583 Swiss Protestant theologian a physician whose original name was Luber Lieber or Liebler. As a follower of Huldreich Zwingli he supported the Swiss leader's view of the Lord's Supper at the conferences of Heidelberg 1560 and Maulbronn 1564 and in a book 1565. In spite of his vigorous opposition to the Calvinist doctrine Presbyterian Church discipline and government were introduced in Heidelberg in 1570. In 1574 Erastus was excommunicated by the Heidelberg consistory but a year later the edict was removed. . .The term Erastianism has come to represent approval of the dominance of civil authority in all punitive measures and by extension complete dominance of the state over the church though Erastus himself never held such an extreme view. Erastianism achieved its definitive expression in the Leviathan of Thomas Hobbes. / ". . .On his return from Italy to Germany Erastus was shocked at the extent to which men were addicted to vain predictions of astrologers and at the astrological restrictions under which medical practice labored. . .as an antidote to the superstition poisoning Germany he had made a translation from the Italian into German of the book of Savonarola against astrologers. This aroused some opposition among German astrologers and the aforesaid physician of Coburg Chrsitopher Stathmion had contended that Savonarola's work did not apply to divination or astrology which was based on natural causes. . .He adopts the usual theological position that divination is the work of demons. He joins Pico and Savonarola in their wholesale onslaught upon astrology to which he would appear to leave almost no field of activity. . .In the first volume of his Disputations Concerning the New Medicine of Paracelsus . . . Erastus has more to say against astrology. It holds first place in magic of which he utterly disapproves and is the offscouring of all impious arts. . .Erastus denied the possibility of natural magic. Nor would he admit that the Magi of ancient Persia had been priests or sages. Their magic too he regarded as diabolical. He showed himself even more incensed at Pomponnazzi for his favorable attitude toward magic in De incantationibus than at Paracelsus. . . Astrology he condemned as the foundation of all other magic arts. He censured Paracelsus for speaking approvingly of augury prodigies geomancy pyromancy and necromancy and for condoning the receiving from demons' remedies to be employed for good ends." Thorndike V5 pp. 652-660 FURTHER: Regarding the second tract the Disputations "concerning and against the new Paracelsan medicine composed by Erastus illustrate on the one hand his opposition to the medical views of Paracelsus and his followers and on the other hand his opposition to various occult arts and sciences most of which he accuses Paracelsus of countenancing." "Erastus commends Paracelsus for one thing namely his careful preparation of medicines and revival of distillation." p. 657.

3477Signed 'J Van H' lower right. Pencil and watercolour `IV' watermark. A beautiful image of a single Mallow stem with pink flowers.<br/> <br/> Jacob van Huysum was born in Amsterdam in about 1687 a member of a renowned family of professional flower painters who enjoyed considerable success in Holland. His father was Justus van Huysum 1659-1716 and his brother Jan van Huysum 1682-1749. Jacob painted in much the same manner as his brother and as with his brother's work many of his drawings betray the temperament of an artist rather than that of a botanical illustrator. His 'work especially in England has often been mistaken for his brother's. Van Huysum came to England about 1721 in which year he was living in the house of a patron Mr. Lockyear of the South Sea House. Subsequently he was patronised by Sir Robert Walpole who received him as an intimate of his house at Chelsea and employed him to paint flowerpieces. for the decoration of the great house at Houghton in Norfolk' DNB . He also provided the majority of the drawings for the 50 illustrations to John Martyn's Historia Plantarum Rariorum London: 1728-38 as well all the drawings to another work Catalogus Plantarum. A catalogue of trees shrubs plants and flowers London: 1730. The present drawing shows the painterly approach where the artist whilst not sacrificing botanical accuracy tries to capture the essence of his subject. His work offers a contrast to the more strictly scientific approach of Georg Dionysius Ehret his younger contemporary and sometime colleague.<br/> <br/> Cf. Henrey II p.213. unknown

It seems likely that this collection of attacks on the Bohemian Brethren the Unitas Fratrum was meant to curry favor with Pope Leon X - and it apparently worked because he spent years at court beginning not long after. The attacks on the brethren echoed the attacks deployed by Malleus Maleficarum author Heinrich Kramer's esp. "Excusatio fratrum valdensium contra binas litteras doctoris Augustini" and their centrally misogynistic framing. Ziegler interestingly converted to Protestantism in 1532 and had most of his works entered into the index of prohibited books. His humanist sympathies are evidenced by the Roman typeface chosen here unusual at the time for a theological book printed in Leipzig.<br /> <br /> Ca. 12 copies in OCLC very rare in commerce. <br /> <br /> Colophon: Generosus Dominus Heinricus Kuna de Chunstat sua pecunia impressoriam officinam redemit.
