Spilbergen J. van and Jacob Le MaireABAA

SPECULUM ORIENTALIS OCCIDENTALISQUE INDIÃƒÂ† NAVIGATIONUM; QUARUM UNA GEORGII A SPILBERGEN CLASSIS CUM POTESTATE PRÃƒÂ†FECTI ALTERA IACOBI LE MAIRE AUSPICIIS IMPERIOQUE DIRECTA ANNIS 1614 15 16 17 18. EXHIBENS NOVI IN MARE AUSTRALE TRANSITUS.

1619WRCAM54737Leiden: Nicolaus a Geelkercken 1619. 1751pp. lacking blank leaf P4 which divides the two narratives but was mistakenly included as pp.119-120 in the continuous pagination; including large engraved vignette on title with twenty-five engraved plates five folding double-page and two large folding maps. Oblong quarto. Contemporary Dutch vellum. Old stains and soiling to boards manuscript "33" in ink on spine edges rubbed boards slightly bowed. Modern bookplate on front pastedown. Minor toning and foxing tiny reinforcement at mounting stub on verso of each large folding map some offsetting. Overall very good. In a blue cloth box gilt leather label. Scarce first Latin edition of one of the bestsellers of illustrated 17th-century travel literature which reports Le Maire's critical DISCOVERY OF TIERRA DEL FUEGO an alternate route to the Pacific and also recounts the Pacific pillaging of the veteran East Indies sailor-turned-pirate Joris van Spilbergen. In addition the work includes valuable early information on ports along the Pacific coast of the Americas and is also of interest for the 17th-century Dutch presence in Brazil. Rich in ethnographic detail the numerous illustrations in the SPECULUM ORIENTALIS. include images of oversized penguins llamas and an Andean condor with a nine-foot wing span. Naval battles beleaguered Spanish settlements and newly discovered islands are also depicted in detail making this a valuable compendium of adventure on the high seas during the Age of Discovery. In 1614 the VOC commissioned Spilbergen to sail to the Moluccas with nearly 700 men. Despite the ostensible commercial nature of his expedition Spilbergen's six vessels were heavily armed anticipating encounters with silver-laden Spanish vessels. Spilbergen spent two years calling at various Spanish and Portuguese ports along both coasts of South America failing to capture any great amounts of silver or silk from Manila but burning several settlements and emerging triumphant from a naval skirmish just south of Lima. By contrast Le Maire's less mercenary expedition resulted in important discoveries; his exploration of Tierra del Fuego and the Tuamotou Archipelago called into doubt the existence of a massive southern continent providing a catalyst for Tasman's discovery of New Zealand and Australia. The two expeditions crossed paths in the Dutch East Indies in 1616. Spilbergen's fleet of six ships was fitted out and armed to combat the Spanish colonies attacking Spanish settlements and shipping along their route. They sailed to Brazil then through the Straits of Magellan and north along the coast of America as far as California. After sailing east to the Philippines they went on to Batavia in search of a Spanish fleet reportedly planning to attack Dutch settlements in the Moluccas but they never found a fleet. On his arrival at Batavia Spilbergen encountered Le Maire and Schouten whose voyage for the newly-formed Compagnie Australe had embarked in 1615 a year after Spilbergen's. Le Maire and Schouten traveled via the newly-discovered Le Maire Strait but on their arrival at Batavia they were arrested for breaching the monopoly granted to the Dutch East India Company of the Strait of Magellan. Spilbergen took Le Maire Schouten and their crews on board and escorted them back to the Netherlands virtually as prisoners. Le Maire grew ill and died en route. This work is remarkable as an early document on Dutch navigation to the Brazilian coasts. Its great value lies in Spilbergen's detailed account of their stay in the Ilha Grande from October 1614 to January 1615 and in SÃƒÂ£o Vicente in 1615. Plate 2 depicting the disordered landing of Dutch vessels in SÃƒÂ£o Vicente clearly documents the way of life of the indigenous peoples under Portuguese occupancy. Colonial religious structures appear alongside typical Native American hammocks and traditional Brazilian costumes and methods of animal husbandry are evident. This illustration with its explanatory text is particularly important as 17th-century ethnographic documents about the future SÃƒÂ£o Paulo are very rare. One of the large folding maps remains important for illustrating Le Maire and Schouten's route across the Pacific. Other maps show the Straits of Magellan and Manila the Moluccas and various ports on the Pacific coast of America. The SPECULUM ORIENTALIS. was originally published in Dutch the same year as this Latin edition with identical plates. Translations in other languages followed rapidly: German in 1620 Frankfurt and French in 1621 Amsterdam. The work was not translated into English until the 1906 Hakluyt Society edition with the title THE EAST AND WEST INDIAN MIRROR.
