LeClerc and on rear pastedown to the state of the engravings. First Edition and second publication dealing with the comparative anatomy of the animals the chameleon the beaver the camel the bear and the gazelle. Perrault scientist and naturalist was the leader of a team of comparative anatomists called the Parisians that included Guichard-Joseph Duverney Jean Pecquet Moyse Charas and Philippe de la Hire. Their investigations began in June 1667 with a thresher shark and lion from the royal academy and went on to encompass forty-nine vertebrate species. The detailed reports and exact descriptions on these dissections were the first of a long series of anatomical descriptions which ultimately included those of twenty-five species of mammals seventeen birds five reptiles one amphibian and one fish. Perrault and the team of Parisians prided themselves on several discoveries and in the process debunked many popular myths attached to certain species such as the legend that salamanders live in fire or that chameleons subsist on air. The scientists also recorded how they obtained their results providing a glimpse of how such anatomical research was conducted in the seventeenth century. The work is illustrated beautifully with five large folding plates by the expert painter engraver and writer Sebastian Leclerc 1637-1714 four of which were engraved by Leclerc and one by the watercolor painter writer and printmaker Abraham Bosse c. 1604-1676. Very fine work; the large folding plates remain fresh and intact. No such detailed and exact descriptions and illustrations had been published before. It is hard to measure another such important addition to the anatomical study of animals. Frederic Leonard hardcover books

Iggeret Orhot Olam: Id est Itinera Mundi THE FIRST MODERN HEBREW WORK on GEOGRAPHY and the FIRST TO DEAL IN DETAIL with the NEWLY DISCOVERED AMERICA

169048858Oxford: Sheldonian Theatre; Henry Bonwick 1690. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good -. Two parts quarto published in 1690 and 1691. A-Z4 pi4 b4 Aa4 Bb/CC4 Dd-Gg4 = 124 leaves. 16 196; 4 31 1 blankpp. Text in Hebrew and Latin in parallel columns. De Turcarum liturgia with separate title page dated 1690 and pagination. Contemporary vellum neatly rebacked. Old library stamp at bottom margin title front blank endleaf detached occasional oxidation spot and mild toning else a very good copy crisp and amply margined. First Hebrew-Latin edition of the first modern Hebrew work on geography the authorâ€™s most famous and important book. Abraham Farissol or Peritsol was a learned Jew from Avignon who compiled his cosmographical works at the court of the Estes in Ferrara. The present text was composed in 1524-25 and first published in Hebrew at Venice in 1586. The Latin translation and notes in the present edition were prepared by the English orientalist and librarian Thomas Hyde 1636-1703 with the assistance of R. Isaac Abendana working from a manuscript which Hyde located in the Bodleian Library. â€œEach of its 30 chapters deals with a certain geographical area or subject. In addition many cosmological and historical matters are also treated. The author collected all the evidence he could regarding Jewish settlements in each country. The inclusion of a description of the New World makes Farissol the first Hebrew writer to deal in detail with the newly-discovered America. The 14th chapter of Iggeret Orhot Olam which deals mainly with the settlements of the Ten Lost Tribes is of special interest. According to Farissolâ€™s introduction to this chapter it is clear that what moved him to undertake this investigation was the appearance in Italy in 1523 of David Reuveni many of whose descriptions are included in this workâ€ EJ 6.1185. Reuveni was "an adventurer who aroused messianic hopes in the early 16th century" EJ 14.114. The appended work is a tract on Islamic customs by Albert Wojciech Bobowski a Polish Christian who converted to Islam after his capture by the Ottoman Turks. Adopting the name Ali Ufki Bey he served as translator court musician at Topkapi and as a notator of Ottoman classical music. Bell F26. Christian Hebraism Cat. Harvard 1988 no. 39. ESTC R27480.

Series of 16 views of Honselaarsdijk.

16833691Amsterdam 1683. Oblong 8vo. Modern half vellum floral chintz paper sides. With 16 numbered engraved views ca. 13 x 16 cm tipped onto blank leaves 17 x 23 cm all hand coloured. 16 ll. with engravings. Extraordinary rare first state of a very fine print series of the Honselaarsdijk palace and gardens at Honselersdijk near Naaldwijk complete with all 16 views. They are all signed numbered and captioned in Dutch and have been coloured by hand. We have not been able to find any other copies of the complete series in the first state.The monumental palace of Honselaarsdijk was built between 1621 and 1647 on the orders of the stadholder Frederik Hendrik 1584-1647 who - together with his wife Amalia van Solms and in the context of their ambition to enhance the position and power of the House of the Dutch stadholder possibly to a Royal status - was involved in a project to build a number of new prestigious castles and manor houses in and around The Hague Huis Ten Bosch Rijswijk and Honselaarsdijk as well in the country Soestdijk Het Loo Dieren etc. He financed the building of Honselaarsdijk mainly with the money coming from the "Silverfleet" captured from the Spaniards by Piet Hein in 1629. A number of important architects were involved with the Honselaarsdijk-project among others the famous Jacob van Campen 1596-1657 and Pieter Post 1608-1669. French garden architects were hired for designing the gardens. King William III further embellished the gardens under the direction of the architect Jacob Roman 1640-1716. As early as 1671 William III was personally involved with the rebuilding of the water supply system at Honselaarsdijk as evidenced by a letter of Christiaan Huygens to his brother Lodewijk. The palace later became known as "Little Versailles". After the death of William III in 1702 the estate was neglected and ultimately demolished in 1815. All that still remains is a part of the garden and parts of the coach-houses.Abraham Blooteling 1640-1690 a pupil of Cornelis Van Dalen II 1636-1664 was a Dutch engraver draughtsman and print seller. His dated prints begin to appear in 1665 and they include portraits biblical mythological and genre subjects as well as six views of Amsterdam after Jacob van Ruisdael and two of the Jewish burial-ground in Ouderkerk 1670 also after van Ruisdael. From 1672-78 he worked in London with Gerard Valck. His major contribution was in the development of the new technique of mezzotint specifically the invention of the rocker the tool used in the technique. In England the technique was adopted with such success that it later became known as the "English Manner". Blooteling was again in Amsterdam by September 1678 when he acted as godfather to his nephew Abraham Valck but he kept up his contacts with London.Between 1681 and 1685 his presence in The Hague is recorded. During these years he engraved a major view of Honselaarsdijk 385 x 482 mm after the design by Abraham Begheyn alias Bega 1637-1697. It is likely that he engraved our 16 views in the same year probably also after the drawings by Abraham Bega. However both the 16 views and the bird's eye view are now exceptionally rare. In fact the present 16 views were until now only known in their second state the reissue by Gerard Valck 1651/2-1726 in his Veues et perspectives de Loo Honslardyck et Soestdyck chasteau & maison de plaisance du Roy de la Grande Bretagne 1695. The views in the second state are numbered differently and lack Blooteling's name.Some of the views have been cut a few millimetres short on the right hand side two of the blank leaves with a crease and two pinprick holes in the bottom margin. Otherwise a fine hand coloured copy.l Hunt & de Jong The Anglo-Dutch garden pp. 136-7; cf. Hollstein II p. 216 no. 117 bird's eye view of Honselaarsdijk by Blooteling after A.

HOBBES, Thomas and Abraham van BERKEL (translator).Biblio.com

Leviathan: of van de stoffe gedaente ende magt van de kerkelycke ende wereltlycke regeeringe.

1672ABC_50310Amsterdam 1672. 8vo. Jacobus Wagenaar 18th-century sprinkled paper over contemporary gold-tooled calf with a brown paper label lettered "Hobbes" on the foot of the spine mottled edges. With an engraved frontispiece a woodcut vignette on the title page an engraved portrait of Thomas Hobbes and a folding table on the classification of sciences. 16 744 64 pp. First Dutch edition of the seminal work by Thomas Hobbes 1588-1679 one of the most original political philosophers of his era. Written during his exile in Paris amidst the English Civil War 1642-1651 Leviathan presents the state as a vast artificial monster composed of individual men whose authority is necessary to protect citizens from the natural state of war. Hobbes argued that survival property and power drive human behaviour making submission to a strong sovereign preferable to the chaos of anarchy. The present Dutch translation was made by Abraham van Berkel 1630-1688 who was closely associated with the Dutch freethinking circles around Spinoza. For this translation van Berkel wrote an important preface explicitly stating the political aims of publishing his Dutch Leviathan at that particular moment in Dutch history. A close reading of the Dutch text reveals several telling deviations from the English original one of which may represent a deliberate reinterpretation of Hobbes meaning presumably intended to adapt Hobbesian ideas more effectively to a Dutch context.With 2 stamps of the Breslau library on the verso of the title page and a later pencil annotation on p. 722. The boards are rubbed the spine is worn with a tear and loss of material at the head. The leaves are somewhat browned and foxed.l Graesse III 311 u; Knuttel Verboden Boeken 185; STCN 095379150 4 copies; USTC 1808932 5 copies; cf. PMM 138 English ed. hardcover

1616ABC_48242Amsterdam 1616. Oblong 4to ca. 16 x 21 cm. Abraham Goos in de Kalverstraet 19th-century quarter calf with a manuscript number on the spine "32" sprinkled paper sides. With an engraved title page signed by P.Serwouter scul. bottom right after D.Vinck Boons bottom left 23 full page maps several decorated woodcut initials and woodcut tailpieces. 7 "305" =294 2 1 blank pp. Rare first edition of one of the first atlases of the Low Countries with 23 very detailed maps. It is the only atlas published by the mapmaker Abraham Goos himself. At the time the present atlas was published the Seven United provinces The Northern Netherlands were still together with the 10 provinces of the Spanish or Habsburg Low Countries. The atlas includes two maps of the Low Countries as a whole one map of each of the seventeen provinces except Drenthe which is included in the map of Overijssel four additional maps of Holland and one additional map of Brabant. Gooss maps were also used for the Atlas Minor published by Johannes Janssonius in 1628.The maps are elegantly designed with decorative title cartouches finely engraved and set in a decorative oval rectangular frame while the corners are decorated in a Renaissance style. The work was reprinted by Janssonius in 1625 and Doncker in 1685. Only the first edition was printed by Goos himself. Koeman recognizes only one Goos issue but Van der Krogt's reissue of Koeman's Atlantes Nederlandici distinguishes two of which ours is the second. The two issues are nearly identical but the second can be recognised by the imprint which includes Goos's new address "inde Kalverstraet" and the addition of the text "cum privilegio" to the maps which Goos added after receiving his privilege for this atlas on 24 December 1615 and an honorarium of 120 guilders from the States General on 8 January 1616. Generally 20 of the 23 maps of the second issue have this addition but in the present copy it is 17: the text is not present on maps 3-5 8 and 11-12.The text was written by the poet and translator Reinier Telle 1559-1618 who based it mainly on Ludovicos Guicciardinis Beschrijvinghe van alle de Nederlanden translated by Telle in 1613. Telles text was in turn the main source for the text in De Vyerighe Colom; finally that text was again used for a new edition of Guicciardinis work published by Jacob van Meurs in 1660.Abraham Goos ca. 1590-before 1643 was born in Antwerp as the son of Margaretha van den Keere the sister of the famous mapmaker Hendrik van den Keere. In 1600 Goos moved to Amsterdam where he soon was employed and trained by the Hondius family and by Willem Jansz. Blaeu. He had his own shop named "In t vergulde Caertboeck" first located op den Dam later around 1615 in the Kalverstraat. Pieter Goos Abrahams son later became famous for his sea atlases and pilot guides.With an erased ownerships entry at the head of the half-title and 18th-century annotations on pp. 136-138.

With 10 finely engraved scenes on the horrors of war on 8 folding/double-page plates. Further with a woodcut device on the title page and a woodcut tailpiece on the final page. First edition of a famous Dutch history book vividly describing and depicting the cruelties of war committed by the French army of Louis XIV in The Netherlands in the years 1672 and 1673. The illustrations also rank among the best masterpieces of Baroque book-illustration. By their passionate denunciation of the horrors of war Romeyn de Hooghe's illustrations stand comparison with Goya's Desastres de la Guerra. Thieme & Becker calls the artist "the most important and fertile master of the second half of the 17th century in Holland". And Furstenberg judged the present print-series "One of the few and too-little known masterpieces of the period" The Book Collector 1960 p. 432.'The text includes a detailed account of the cruelties committed by the French army of Louis XIV in the Dutch villages of Bodegraven and Swammerdam. The work was published anonymously because the author Abraham de Wicqefort 1598-1682 a diplomat and politician was well-known in Paris and at the French court. He also wrote an excellent manual for ambassadors L'Ambassadeur ses fonctions published in The Hague in 1682. The present work became popular in The Netherlands and was several times republished in Dutch with the plates reduced.With a manuscript note on the recto of the final flyleaf.

A fair copy at best; despite all defects the half-page engraved illustrations have survived intact with minimal staining. Housed in new maroon buckram slipcase. First edition of this gorgeously illustrated work now referred to simply as the Amsterdam Haggadah. The first such work to be illustrated with copperplate engravings it ranks among the most imitated of the Jewish manuals for the Passover seder. The popularity of these illustrations can be attested by the huge number of reprint editions over the centuries. Fourteen finely printed half-page engravings appear throughout the text. Some of these images illustrate the traditional content of the Passover seder or the Exodus story while others reference other biblical tales. Images include: the Rabbis of Bene Brak discussing the Passover story the four sons Abraham smashing the idols of his father Abraham welcoming the three angels Moses slaying the Egyptian overseer the rescuing Moses from the river Moses and Aaron coming to Pharaoh w/ staves turning to snakes the ten plagues the Egyptian army drowning in the Red Sea the Exodus the receiving of the Ten Commandments at Mt. Sinai the eating of the Pascal Lamb King David composing his psalms and finally an exterior view of the Jewish Temple with the cityscape of Jerusalem in the background. All images are captioned with relevant passages in Hebrew. The engravings were all created by Abraham ben Jacob a German convert to Judaism who had moved to Amsterdam although some sources over the years misattributed them to financier Moses Wiesel 6 of which were adaptations and/or modifications of previous images by Swiss artist MatthÃ¤us Merian 1593-1650 from his original work "Icones Biblicae" 1625-30. In addition to the in text engravings there is famously fold-out engraved biblical map of the Holy Land in a notable format. Measuring a total of 19.5 by 11.5" the map shows the land of Israel the Wilderness of Sinai and Egypt in landscape orientation looking eastward towards the top of the map. It traces the journey of the Israelites starting with the Exodus from Egypt through the Sinai and into the Land of Israel. The map is detailed showing the areas of the twelve tribes important locations and cities as well as geographic features including the Red Sea Mount Sinai the Dead Sea the Sea of Galilee and many others. Additional illustrations appear near the bottom along with a legend. This beautiful work also by Abraham ben Jacob is considered among the earliest if not the first map of its kind to be printed within a Hebrew publication. It is now known to have been heavily based on the previously printed 1620 map in Hebrew by Jacob ben Abraham Zaddiq and Abraham Goos 1590 - ca. 1643 which itself was based on the map of 1590 by Christian Kruik van Adrichom Adrichem printed in Latin. Text throughout is printed in Hebrew with smaller text in Rashi script underneath containing famous commentary on the Passover Haggadah by acclaimed Portuguese Rabbi and scholar Isaac ben Judah Abarbanel 1437-1508. The verso of the title page contains the order of the Passover seder with brief instructions in both Ladino Judeo-Spanish and Yiddish Judeo-German a nod to the subtitle which references both the Ashkenazi and Sephardi traditions. Provenance and annotations: Full page of text appx. 1500 words in neat Hebrew cursive at front endleaf which discusses aspects of the Haggadah text; inscription in German at front endleaf by Isidor Adler who mentions his friend Hermann Mechlenburg dated March 1906; old annotations throughout in at least two hands. In one notable instance the Hebrew phrase l'shana ha-ba'ah be-hamburg next year in Hamburg! has been added in fine block characters above the traditional phrase l'shana ha-ba'ah bi-yerushalayim next year in Jerusalem.

Americae Sive Novi Orbis Nova Descriptio

1612219257Abraham Ortelius 1612. unbound. very good. Map. Engraving with hand coloring. Image measures 14" x 19.25". This stunning 1612 map by Abraham Ortelius depicts the Western Hemisphere. At the time it was issued the coastal areas of the New World had been fairly well explored and Europeans were just beginning settlement and colonization. It is notable for depicting Spanish and Portuguese colonies in high detail for these powers were notoriously protective of their geographical surveys. This is the first state of the third plate engraved for Ortelius's landmark map of the New World. It is distinguished from the first two plates by the lack of the bulge to the southwest coast of South America. Several other cartographic enhancements are apparent on closer inspections. The Solomon Islands are depicted here for the first time since their discovery in 1568 by Alvaro de Mendana. The map identifies several places previously unpublished due to political reasons. These were provided to Ortelius by Haklyut on the basis of recent explorations. The nomenclature in California is also included. Perhaps the most notable enhancements on the east coast is the Indian name Wingandkoa and an inlet just above possibly the first depiction of the Chesapeake Bay on a printed map reflecting early English efforts at Colonization in the Outer Banks of the Carolinas. Based on Gerard Mercators 1569 World Map this map includes an abundance of cartographic speculation representing the knowledge of the region during the time. The kingdom of Quivira the supposed ancient city of gold in North America. Conquistador Francisco VÃ¡zquez de Coronado searched for Quivira for several years to finally find it was no more than American Indian settlement of farming people. Terro del Fueggo first reached by Magellan is here shown to be part of the large speculated continent of Terra Australis that extends westward with the annotation "The southern of Magellanican land as yet unknown". Other interesting annotations throughout include "Somewhere here there are islands which according to some have gold" and Patagonia shows a notation that suggests its inhabitants were giants. The waters are ornamented with illustrations of ships and a sea monster. In earlier plates the ships are different. A large title cartouche is included in the bottom left. Another scale cartouche appears in the top left. Published in the 1612 or 1608 edition the map is identical in both editions of Ortelius' famous "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" which is historically considered the first modern atlas. Based on the text on verso only 300 copies of this particular edition were ever printed van der Broecke 11. Italian text on verso. Minor chipping to edges. Full original margins. Minor wear along original centerfold. Abraham Ortelius 1527--1598 a Flemish cartographer and geographer is widely regarded as one of the important and influential cartographers in history. He is known for his "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" which was the first modern atlas. Abraham Ortelius unknown books

162451428Köln Ioannis Gymnici Antonius Boetzer 1624 a. 1621-1640. Folio. 40 x 26 cm. Bound in 8 thick uniform contemporary full pigskin bindings over wooden boards. Raised bands and richly blind-tooled boards. Title labels with gilt lettering. Clasps missing. Spines a bit rubbed. Wear to some spine-ends. Some upper compartments with nicks one volume having a tear in leather at upper compartment. One volume with a small loss of leather to upper compartement. With engraved title-page engraved portrait of Baronius engraved portrait of pope Urban VII. More than 10.000 pp. Printed in double-columns. In general internally fine. Baronius's monumental work with its continuation by Bzovius up to the year 1565 hailed by Roman Catholic writers as the greatest history of the church ever written and Baronius hailed as the "father of ecclestical history" 1-12 dealt with Anno 1-1198 and volume13 -20 Anno 1198-1565."The Annales were first published between 1588 and 1607. This work functioned as an official response to the Lutheran Historia Ecclesiae Christi History of the Church of Christ. In that work the Magdeburg theologians surveyed the history of the Christian church in order to demonstrate how the Catholic Church represented the Antichrist and had deviated from the beliefs and practices of the early church. In turn the Annales fully supported the claims of the papacy to lead the unique true church."Before Baronius was appointed Librarian of the Vatican in 1597 he had access to material and sources in its archives that were previously unpublished or unused. He used these in the development of his work. Accordingly the documentation in Annales Ecclesiastici is considered by most as extremely useful and complete. Lord Acton called it "the greatest history of the Church ever written"."Graesse I 296. - Brunet I 662-631. hardcover
