Inscribed by Verghese in 2002 to the medical historian Howard Markel who taught at the University of Michigan.

1693000046Leipzig : David Fleischer 1693. Hardcover. Very Good/not applicable. No publisher no place no year. - Large 4to 33.5x20.5 cm. - 2 73 recte 75 38 p. - In Fraktur. Many errors of pagination. - Much later late 19th century half-clioth with marble-paper covered hard boards; quite worn. - Rare abbreviated printing of Schonberg's 1693 "magnum opus" which is of the size of 8 240 38 134 2 pages. -- For the present copy no publisher's name publication place or year given. Though the font is identical to that of the well described edition this is not a direct reprint - the present copy has a somewhat different spatial arrangement and contains many misprints for instance on the title-page "Vatterland" for "Vaterland" etc. not in the original. WorldCat describes it as : "Vermutlich in Leipzig bei David Fleischer gedruckt"; and the date is likely to be 1693 or close to it. -- Schonberg gives a comprehensive description of mining and of all kind of related practices such as prospecting underground surveying tunnel construction machinery flood control in mines washing of ore assaying smelting et. even administration and industrial relation. - The second part "Redens-arten" gives the terminology af mining in dictionary form. - Much rarer than the original: WorldCat gives only three locations: two in Denmark and one in Germany. <br/> <br/> David Fleischer (?) hardcover

105904Cologne Pierre Marteau 1690. 4to. 4 457; 219 49 267 1 pp. Title printed in red and black. Minor spotting and a few ink spots. Slightly worn contemporary full calf spine gilt with raised band and rubbed red label marbled boards tears on top of spine. Owner’s signature Schröder on title crossed over with ink. From the library of Fredrik von Friesendorff with his engr. bookplate. This classic and important work on diplomats and diplomatic skill was first published in The Hague in 1680-81. This is the expanded Marteau-edition from 1690. The Dutchman Abraham de Wicquefort 1606-1682 is the first author whose focus was on the actual diplomatic practise. “The purpose of this work was to describe what an envoy does and how he should conduct himself. He was on the threshold of a new development and gave the literature on diplomacy a new orientationâ€. Wicquefort was from 1642 Brandenburg’s diplomat in Paris but was imprisoned by Cardinal Mazarin in 1659 and expelled in 1660. He stayed in The Hague but was in 1679 imprisoned for life for high treason and he wrote “L'ambassadeur et ses Fonctions†in prison. Beside this book and a history of the Netherlands he also translated the travels by Olearius into French. hardcover

Top edge a little dusty small stain to fore edge and lower edge.</p><p><strong>Notes:</strong> Around 1669 Amelot de La Houssaye 1634–1706 was appointed legation secretary to the French ambassador in Venice. From this period he drew the information for his "Histoire du gouvernement de Venise" an unsparing description of the political constitution of the city-state published in Paris in 1676. After the publication the outraged protests of the Venetian ambassador led to La Houssaye being imprisoned in the Bastille. The scandal surrounding La Houssaye helped the work to become very popular so that he published a second edition with additions in 1677. The 'Supplément à l'histoire du gouvernement de Venise' provoked further protests from Venice so that the edition was finally banned in France. But even this ban only led to a greater demand for the book so that it was subsequently reprinted in secret. The note "Sur la Copie" on the title page but also the comparison of the types of printing used suggests that the present edition was not printed by Léonard in Paris.</p> Frédéric Léonard hardcover
