Burgdorf 1723. Ad I: First edition of this interesting work of baroque literature. "In the year 1658 a script was published with the purported place of publication Lutetia Paris that caused a most disagreeable sensation: Heutelia Anagram for Helvetia . It contains the following fiction: A Palatine nobleman and a jurist from Wurttemberg both Protestants flee from the Thirty Years War to Switzerland and making ironical comments as they travel from place to place . The tone is unrestrained satirical and sometimes cynical especially when the status of women is concerned. A lot of brutianism is involved. Behind that facade however there is a scientific seriousness that gets to the bottom of things . The intention was always to uncover the oddities of Switzerland." transl. from Feller/Bonjour. Politically the travellers represent the aristocracy and take a firm stand against democracy. Zurich comes away relatively lightly whereas Bale does not. Of Bern however an unsparing social picture is outlined that led to a storm of protest and the "Gnadigen Herren" tried to surpress the book by all means. "Heutelia" was already identified in the 18th c. as a "liber satyricus rarissimus". Haller talks of a rare work and names as authors Jakob Graviseth or Gravisset Herr zu Liebenegg and Landvogt von Oron. More recent research especially by Walter Weigum declares the "Heutelia" to have been written by Hans Franz Veiras 1577-1672 the secretary of the Palatine Elector and Bohemian King Friedrich V who had fled to Zurich. Graviseth maybe translated and reworked the "Heutelia" from Latin giving it a Swissgerman interpretation. At the end the key to the names is found for example: Guretum=Zurich Sebilacopolis=Bale Rusinopolis=Bern Bonzus Corvinus=Jesuit Druida=Pastor Muftus=Messpriest etc. Ad II: First edition of the historic work by the Burgdorf councilman H.R. Grimm 1665-1749 who participated in the 2nd Villmerger War in 1712. Although this popular writing has many misrepresentations and mistakes it is characterized by its lively descriptions. The work also contains popular descriptions of the mountains rivers and natural wonders of Switzerland. Nice copy of two rare works. _ - Ad I: Paisey H 1019; VD17 23:299560W; Weller Druckorte I p. 30; Hayn/Gotendorf VII 257; Haller V 1195; Barth 2193; Faber du Faur 448; Jantz 2571; Kosch II 969; Feller/Bonjour 405f.; cf.

Ad I: First edition of a notable work of baroque literature Heutelia is one of the few literary products of Switzerland in this time and one of the wittiest. This is a journey description based on satire and utopia. Written by Veiras former advisor of the Winter King i.e. Frederick V Elector of the Palatine and King of Bohemia and by Gravisseth who was Bailiff of Oron it is a critical account on the social conditions in 17th century Switzerland.

16525476Antwerp 1652. 4to 18 x 14.5 cm. Jan Huyssens Later 17th-century mottled calf sewn on 4 double cords gold-tooled spine and board edges. With a double-page letterpress title-page with a frame built up from typographic ornaments and 39 unnumbered double-page engraved maps of the northern and southern Low Countries by Jacob Aertsz. Colom each map coloured in outline. Interleaved with 38 blank leaves and with a manuscript table of contents 3 3 blank pp. at the end. Double-page title-page and 39 double-page maps. Second known copy of a pocket-atlas published at Antwerp but containing a selection of the maps of the Low Countries originally published by Jacob Aertsz. Colom at Amsterdam in 1635 with the title De Vyerighe Colom the title Colom had first used for his famous pilot guide in 1632 and the name he had given to his Amsterdam printing office where he worked from 1622 to his death in 1673 as a bookseller printer and mapmaker. The only other copy known is at the Royal Library in Brussels. The Vyerighe Colom with 47 maps and 3 plates and with extensive text in Dutch and French went through several editions in the 17th century but it was once thought that all editions before his death in 1673 had been published at Amsterdam by Colom himself. The Royal Library copy like the present one contains 39 maps but each contains one map not in the other so there are forty in total: the present copy includes Drentiae not in the Royal Library copy which includes Le terres entre la Meuse Vahal et Rhin not present here. The maps are also bound in a different order.The present edition is of great interest and gives cause to review Colom's activities. It is printed from Coloms plates so Colom may have licenced the Antwerp publisher to produce a variant edition of his Vyerighe Colom to broaden his market possibly reacting to the signing of the Peace of Münster in 1648 which finally ended the Eighty Years War and opened trade and communication between the northern and southern Low Countries. Jan Huyssens made an entirely new and practical atlas out of Colom's Vyerighe Colom. He omitted all text and the three plates that do not show maps and selected only maps of general interest leaving out the map of the ancient Low Countries and such typical Dutch maps as the separate maps of the polders De Zype Beemster Wormer Purmer Byllemermeer and Waterland also - at least in the present copy - completely rearranging the maps more in order of their geographical sequence. The title suggests that Huyssens originally planned to include a text so the present extremely rare edition may be the only surviving result of an abandoned project.l Koeman & Van der Krogt 365.23 IIIB pp. 644-645 2 copies: the present & Royal Library Brussels; UniCat 99095764 Royal Library Brussels only; cf.

16923306804Lyon: Vander Aa 1692. One part moderately water-stained another with slight marginal worming three of the folding plates repaired. Eleven volumes duodecimo the first with four engraved folding plates and all eleven volumes embellished with charming ornamental title-pages; a handsome set in mid eighteenth-century dark panelled calf with original labels. <p><p>Attractively bound set of Cicero in eleven volumes noted as "respectable and correct" by Moss. The title-page boasts that the accuracy of the text arises from the editorial finesse of Dutch classical scholar Jacob Gronovius whose portrait appears as frontispiece to the first volume curiously the English literary lion Thomas Dibdin claimed the editorial attribution to Gronovius was spurious. Jacob Gronovius was the father of botanist Jan Frederik Gronovius correspondent and patron of Carl Linnaeus and the author of a treatise on the native plants and herbs of Virginia.</p> <p>A charming set in an appealing early binding this is a considerable publication continuously paginated for a total of 3611 pages. The folding engraved plates include the detail of an epigraphic tribute to Cicero and numismatic relics relating to the famed Roman orator.</p> </p> . Vander Aa unknown

1678733Ingolstodt: Joannis Philippi Zink 1678. Hardcover. Fair. Three poetical works of early 17th century Jesuit poets bound into one binding with beautiful silver decorations covering the front and rear board. About the Literary Works - Three works are bound within: 1. 1672 De Cultu B. V. Mariae Elegiarum in three books not ""book three"" as it is often catalogued; all three ""libri"" are found within the printing by Antoine Deslions. 2. No title page bound in starts at A1 page 1 - Epigrammatum Selectrorum by Bernard Bauhuis 3. 1672 Silvulae Hendecasyllarborum by Jacob Bidermann About the Binding - No maker's mark is readily visible. The book was published in Ingolstadt where the silversmith family of Kienlin see book bindings attributed to Johann Adam Kienlin plied their trade. It was common for bindings of this time to have a silver spine but I see no hinges which indicate one might have been removed and the leather of the spine was decorated. Still a silver spine may have been removed and the board edges cut of their hinges. but removing the hinges seems unlikely. This book was sold in the 1924 Sotheby Sale of the Library of Dr. E Marion Cox. Bibliographic Details - All three works are printed by Joannis Philippi Zinck in Ingelstadt. The first and third work have a printing date of 1672; presumptively the middle work would also have been printed in 1672 the title page is not bound-in but Worldcat doesn't have record of a 1672 edition. The Deslions work is catalogued in Worldcat as OCLC 836616102 among others. The Bauhuis work is catalogued in Worldcat as OCLC 1088278417 with a printing date of 1678. The Bidermann work is catalogued in Worldcat as OCLC 78071635 among others. Physical Attributes - Measures approx. 13 x 8 x 3 cm. Leather binding with blind tooling. Over the front and rear board silver covers have been added; these are likely repousse hammered from the back side and are decorated in the French rococo style each with a proud central medallion. The front medallion is a woman holding a goblet and books the rear medallion is a woman holding her baby and guiding her child. The covers have been turned-in just like a leather binding. The silver clasps work and one clasp depicts a putti holding a spade and the other a lute. The endpapers are dutch-gilt the front one is missing the flyleaf and the rear endpaper shows a wonderful depiction of a lute player in gilt. Three works bound into one binding. The second work is missing its title page and any prefatory printed material it begins at page 1 signed A1. Pages - vi 106 128 title page vi 128 The third work seems like it might not have had a leaf bound-in; the first gathering is fifteen leaves instead of 16 but the catchwords match and nothing seems missing so it was likely a blank the binder chose not to include. Condition - See pictures. Silver tarnished with some bumps around the edges. Leather binding under is dried out. The spine is crazed and chipped from the head and tail; there is evidence of glue repair along the front and rear leather joint. There is a little rubbing noticeable on the leather under the silver covering the boards. Front flyleaf missing. Blank bookbinder endpaper mounted instead; some numbers written on it and the remnants of an auction ticket presumably. Text block has some toning throughout with occasional fox spots page edge bumps etc. A few pages seem slightly proud. The index at the back of the Deslions work insn't included. Also the title page and any intros are not bound in for the Bauhuis it starts on page 1. I see a very occasional annotation. Blank endpaper at rear has notes on which poems apply to different life situations. Rear flyleaf has a white mark at bottom and the fore-edge is a little rough; also several small holes which may be from binding. Joannis Philippi Zink

This edition of Boehm's writings in translation marks an important chapter in the English reception of Boehm's writings. A German mystic and self-taught theologian he believed that humanity had fallen from a state of divine grace to its present state of sin and suffering that the forces of evil included fallen angels who had rebelled against God. On these points he is consistent with Lutheran Theology. Boehme believed however that the fall from grace was a necessary stage in the evolution of the universe. It was necessary for humanity to depart from God in order initiate an evolution toward a new state of redeemed harmony that would be more perfect than the original state of innocence. God would thus achieve a new self-awareness by interacting with a creation that was both part of and distinct from Himself. English Short-Title Catalogue R21858. unknown books
