162122956Rotterdam: Jan van Waesberghe III 1621. Contemporary calf spine richly gold-tooled in compartments with red title label lettered in gold gold-tooled board edges. 8vo. With an engraved ornamental title-page with the title in an oval cartouche and 4 roundels in the corners with scenes from the four plays; 4 full-page engraved plates with similar scenes one in the preliminaries of each play. Each of the four parts starts with a letterpress title-page with the publisher's device of Van Waesberghe. Further with woodcut tailpieces woodcut decorated initials 3 series and headpieces built up from arabesque typographic ornaments. 4 parts in one volume. First and only edition of four morality plays or dialogues often wrongly attributed to the famous Antwerp rhetorician Jean Baptiste Houwaert 1533-1599. In fact they were written by Antwerp rhetoricians ca. 1550 when Houwaert was only about seventeen. It has mistakenly been described as a second edition of Houwaert's Den handel der amoureusheyt Brussels 1583 - see Bibl. Belg. III p. 538 H 189 bis but in fact it has nothing to do with that work: if Houwaert wrote anything for the present edition it would be the entr'actes of the third play.After four preliminary poems on 5 pages by a poet calling himself Niet Snel Al-be-recht four plays follow:1. Verscheyden schoone spelen van zinnen van Aeneas ende Dido A1-F3; 43 ll. written by the rhetorician Jacob de Mol of the Chamber of rhetoric De Goudsblom in Antwerp performed for the first time in 1552 cf. Vinck-Van Caeckenberghe in her book on Cornelis van Ghistele 1996 who attributes this play to Van Ghistele.2. Verscheyden schoone spelen van zinnen van Narcissus ende Echo &c. F4-P7; 76 ll.: three separate plays together 2193 verses by Colyn Keyart with entr'actes possibly by Johan Baptiste Houwaert.3. Verscheyden schoone spelen van zinnen van Mars ande Venus &c. Q1-Z1; 57 ll.: three separate plays together 1128 verses probably by Smeecken.4. Vier schoone spelen van zinnen van Leander ende Hero Z2-Gg2; 57 ll.: this play according to Knuttel also by Colyn Keyart is preserved only in this edition.The book is a very important source for the history of the rhetoricians in the Southern Netherlands.One plate shaved otherwise in good condition.l Bibl.

162215084Amsterdam: Chez Emanuel Colin de Thovoyon 1622. Folio 310 by 200mm first French edition second issue title page canncelled with Paris imprint added to that of Amsterdam engraved title with vignettes and map 8 103 1 blank 6 107-254 pp. head- and tail-pieces with decorated initials; 27 engraved plates pictorial title page 17 maps and charts 16 double-page 1 folded 4 city views 5 text engravings scenes from Le Maire voyage portrait of Le Maire not present as usual for the French edition seventeenth century vellum. The first French edition of Herrera'a rare work here extra-illustrated with Boazio's exceedingly rare views of Santo Domingo Dominican Republic; Santiago Cape Verde Islands; Cartagena Columbia; and San Augustine Florida - first known engraving of any locality in the present-day United States. The importance of this French edition of Herrera's 'Description des Indes Occidentales' and the other 1622 editions in Latin and Dutch lies in its engraved pictorial title page with the first map to delineate California as an Island and in the inclusion of the first comprehensive account of Jacob Le Maire's voyage. The 14 maps in the Herrera's section are almost identical to those in the original 1601 'Descripcion' save for some resizing and changes in a few details. The most interesting are probably the 'Description de las Yndias Occidentalis' which depicts the Papal line of demarcation dividing the world between Spain and Portugal and the 'Description de las Indias del Poniente' which depicts a large part of the Pacific with the Moluccas the Philippines and the Ladrones accurately positioned. Le Maire and Cornelis Schouten his second in command left Texel in June 1615 on a mission to find a new route to reach the Spices Islands which would break the trade monopoly of the Dutch East India Company which had been grant a monopoly trade through the Strait of Magellan. The pair succeeded to break the monopoly by rounding south America south of the Straits of Magellan. The new cape was name Horn or Hoorn after Shouten's ship which had been lost due to fire at the Patagonian port Desire. In doing so they also dispelled the myth of a great southern continent joined to South America. They would continue to sail across the Pacific discovering numerous islands along the way and sailing up the northern coast of New Guinea. By September 1616 Le Maire reached Ternate in the Moluccas the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company. Initially well received they were soon accused of having encroached on the rights of the Company and were tried found guilty and shipped home on Spilbergen's ship which was completing its own trip around the world. Le Maire died on the return voyage and his journals were taken by the Company. Schouten and Spibergen published an abreviated version of these journal; and it was not until 1622 after a long trial that Isaac Le Maire was able to regain custody of his son's journals and to publish them in full. The four additional city views Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic; Santiago in the Cape Verde Islands; Cartagena in Columbia; and San Augustine Florida were drawn and possibly engraved by the Italian artist Baptista Boazio. The Boazio views are "probably the most interesting and important published graphic work pertaining to Drake and his career" Kraus. They are also the first representations of those four cities. Indeed the view of St Augustine is the first known engraving of any locality in the present-day United States. Their history is uncertain. There is no indication that Boazio participated to the voyage but he must have obtained a version of these views from someone who did: "It was undoubtedly in the course of the return voyage that the author of this view-plan of St. Augustine was able to copy the figure of the Dorado fish and of the other creatures decorating the plans from John White's original drawings" Kraus. John White was the Governor of the first English settlement in America who along with the other surviving settlers returned to England from Roanoke Island with Drake's expedition. Two issues of these views were printed in Leiden in 1588 both extremely rare: a large paper issue 16.5 by 22 inches was printed to illustrate Walter Bigges and Master Croftes 'A Summarie and true discourse of Sir Francis Drake's West Indian Voyage' published in London in 1589; the present smaller size 7.5 by 11.25 inches has captions in Latin and French and a numerical instead of alphabetical key and was probably printed to illustrate the Latin and French translations of 'A Summarie and true discourse' published in Leiden in 1588. While the pictures are broadly similar the present examples show greater detail whilst the larger ones include more sea monsters and other embellishments. Priority regarding date of publication between those two issues has not been established with certainty but there are indications that the smaller issue came first: <br /><br />"A close comparison of details however suggests that the smaller engravings come from an earlier set of drawings and that the larger maps represent revisions as well as embellishments probably done by the same artist" Mary Frear Keeler. <br /><br />There were two subsequent issues of the smaller Boazio plates: the first in 1589 published in Cologne used the same plates but with only the Latin text below; the plates themselves are set within the text with printed text to the verso; the second 1590 Nuremberg printing was neither printed from new plates or the plates have been heavily revised. Only two complete sets of the four large views have appeared at auction in the last fifty years each accompanied by an example of a map of Drake's Atlantic voyage: the DuPont sale at Christie s in 1991 for $231000; and bound into the Macclesfield example of Saxton's atlas Sotheby's 2007 for £669600. A large coloured view of Cartagena was sold at Christies in 1996 for $16100. <br /><br />There is no record of any copy of the 1588 smaller size issue having gone through auction. In 1970 Kraus p.156 estimated that they were eight recorded complete sets of the large Boazio plates and seven complete sets of the smaller plates 1588 and 1589. <br /><br />OCLC records eight complete sets of the large plates but only two complete sets of the small 1588 plates: New York Public Library and the Huntington Library. There is an incomplete set lacking San Augustine of the smaller 1588 plates in the Kraus' Sir Francis Drake Collection housed in the Library of Congress. Of the 1589 small plates we were able to trace nine complete examples. <br /><br />A comparison of the Boazio maps in the present book with the plates in the Huntington Library New York Public Library and the Library of Congress confirm that the 4 sets are identical.

Without the portrait of Le Maire as usual found in only a small number of copies.

Le Maire's journal which occupies pp. 107-174 of this book describes the voyage of trade and discovery launched by one of the most aggressive of Netherlands traders in this era of Dutch expansion. The expedition sailed around Cape Horn explored the Pacific coast of South America and pursued the search for Terra Australis. Inspired in part by Quiros and motivated by Dutch trading zeal this was the essential precursor to Tasman's voyage; indeed Tasman made great use of Le Maire's mapping of the ocean. The Le Maire voyage the last of the seventeenth century expeditions to search for the unknown continent from the east was responsible for extensive discoveries in the Pacific recorded in excellent detail on the numerous maps published here. These include maps of Le Maire's Pacific route and of New Guinea the latter definitely establishing it to be an island. There are also five engraved views showing the expedition in Patagonia a Polynesian sailing canoe the anchorage at Cocos Island natives at Cocos and the isle of Hoorn. The first section of this work is the first French and second edition overall of a portion of Antonio de Herrera's Historia General first published in Madrid in 1601. This is one of the classic descriptions of the Spanish conquests in the New World with important maps of the West Indies the Americas the coasts of Central and South America the interior of Mexico Terra Firme and the west coast of South America including some of the most important maps relating to the Pacific made to the time. The third section of this volume consists of brief accounts of other voyages into the Pacific and the account of Pedro de Cevallos of the Spanish possessions in the New World. Two issues of this French translation were printed in Amsterdam in 1622. This copy has the first imprint recorded by Wagner. There were also Latin and Dutch editions in the same year differing slightly in their makeup; Wagner assigns priority to this French edition.

Cats was a Dutch statesman and writer of emblem books a type of popular seventeenth-century literature consisting of woodcuts or engravings accompanied by didactic verses pointing a moral or presenting an ethical concern often related to love and marriage. Dutch artists of the Golden Age including Vermeer used such books as inspiration for motifs in their paintings and prints. The sources upon which Cats draws for this combination of emblem literature and love poetry are chiefly the Bible and the classics and occasionally Boccaccio and Cervantes. His first book Sinne-en minnebeelden "Portraits of Morality and Love" contained 96 emblematic engravings with text in Dutch Latin and French each emblem with a threefold interpretation expressing what were for Cats the three elements of human life: love society and religion. Perhaps his most famous emblem book written in a more homely style than his earlier works is Spiegel van den ouden en nieuwen tyt "Mirror of Old and New Times" with 128 emblematical engravings accompanied by quotations many of which have become household sayings. Two other works—Houwelyk 'Marriage' and Trou-ringh 'Wedding Ring' with 59 plates—are rhymed dissertations on marriage and conjugal fidelity. Finally in one of his last books Ouderdom buyten-leven en hof-gedachten "Old Age Country Life and Garden Thoughts" with 27 plates Cats writes movingly about his declining years.
