Modern half brown morocco paste-paper boards blind- and gilt-stamped spine labels raised bands. Fine. FIRST EDITION in German complete. This is the most advanced textbook on Cosmic Physics and Meteorology of its time. "His acclaimed textbook on physics and meteorology Elements de physique experimentale et de meteorologie was published in four parts.6 Also it was translated into German by Johann Heinrich Jakob Muller and published with the title Lehrbuch der Physik und Meteorologie." – Wikip. "Pouillet's lectures — which were partially collected in his Elements de physique experimentale et de meteorologie 1927 and in the Lecons de physique de la Faculte des sciences 1828 — were widely read. Pouillet published a popular account of Elements in 1850. Although offering no spectacular novelties they presented in clear language a survey of the state of the various branches of physics and of recent developments in them." – DSB XI p. 111. / A much revised and expanded version of what was originally Pouillet's Elements de Physique Experimentale et de Meteorologie 1827 which Muller translated into Lehrbuch der Physik und Meteorologie 1842 and then expanded with the supplement Lehrbuch der Kosmischen Physik 1856. It was eventually taken to a ninth edition by Pfaundler 1886-98 and finally revised and expanded yet again by Pfaundler into this final edition including an additional volume Magnetismus und Elektrizitat 1909 written by Walter Kaufmann 1871-1947 and Alfred Coehn 1863-1938. The final version unifies almost a century's worth of effort in various disciplines into a single textbook. F. Vieweg, 1905-7, 1909. hardcover books

Born of poor parents in Goerlitz Germany as a boy he tended cattle later becoming a shoemaker marrying & fathering 4 children. Boehme at the robust age of 37 in 1612 wrote his first treatise Aurora oder Die Morgenroete in Aufgang. In 1613 an unauthorized copy of the manuscript was copied and circulated by Karl von Ender. Its reception "raised him out of his homely sphere and made him the centre of a local circle of liberal thinkers considerably above him in station and culture." However the local pastor primarius of Gorlitz Gregorius Richter leveled a charge of heresy. The local muncipal council administered an admonishment to no further "meddle in such matters." This charge Boehme publicly followed for 5 years. In 1618 Boehme again started writing expository & polemical treatises. The majority of his works were written though not formally published from 1619 - 1624. A second major work Der Weg zu Christo was published in 1624 and signaled a renewal of clerical hostility. Boehem however was destined to suffer but a short period of this second persecution; he died of an illness on 17 November 1624. Boehme has been said to have a "fertility of ideas" and a "trasncendent greatness of religious insight." Boehme was studied by Sir Isaac Newton and influenced the work Henry More as well as and especially William Law 1686 - 1761. Xl Questions concerning the Soule was translated by the English mystic John Sparrow in collaboration with John Ellstone & financed by Humphrey Blunden. This the first of several works by Boehme that Sparrow & Ellstone were to translate into English between 1644 - 1662. Boehme proved to be highly popular in England where there were regular societies of Behmenists at the time. This work XL Questions went into a second edition in 1648 and a third edition in 1665. 11th EB. A scarce title in the Boehme canon. We find no copies currently offered via the major on-line databases OCLC records but 4 institional cc and the work has only appeared at auction 3 times in the last 25 years the last in 1989.
