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.

Original gilt-stamped calf modern red leather gilt-stamped spine label raised bands; rubbed joints cracked upper spine mended. Ownership stamp of "P.G." Very good. RARE. First edition in English; first printed in Leiden in 1727 as Matheseos universalis elementa. "This work translated into Dutch 1728 and English 1752 sic is of didactic rather than original merit but it was significant for its invitation to mathematicians to elucidate systematically Newton's Universal Arithmetick which 'sGravesande exemplified by his own explanation of two passages from Newton's book. 'sGravesande found the lighthearted treatment of infinitesimals and the infinite in Bernard de Fontenelle's Elemens de la geometrie de l'infini Paris 1727 unacceptable and he maintained his objections in the Journal litteraire against Fontenelle's rejoinder 1730." – DSB V p. 510.

177033417Augsburg: J. J. Haid et fils 1770. Mezzotint engravings on laid paper. Trimmed to platemark on bottom. Charming suite of mezzotints capturing the quiet choreography of eighteenth-century domestic routine.<br/> <br/> Johann Jacob Haid one of Augsburg's leading printmakers depicts a young protagonist at successive moments: in the morning she adjusts her negligee beside an inviting breakfast service; after dinner she composes her hair and pearls before a mirror; toward evening she slips on her gloves in the open doorway poised between interior refinement and the social world beyond; and at last she settles by glittering candles her veil half-drawn as reading gives way to sleep. The mezzotint medium lends the scenes a painterly softness while the sophisticated articulation of lace jewellery and porcelain situates the figure within a Rococo vocabulary of luxury and polite accomplishment. Haid's French titles underscore Augsburg's role as a transnational centre for the circulation of fashionable imagery during the Enlightenment. Suites such as the present set appealed to middle-class collectors who sought both moral narrative and decorative refinement for the domestic interior. The present set offers insight into the gendered rhythms of leisure consumption and self-presentation that preoccupied contemporary viewers.<br/> <br/> Cf.
