Thraciae Veteris Typus. Ex conatibus Geographicis Abrah. Ortelii.

162421830Antwerp: Balthasar Moretus 1624. Other. A very good example in excellent condition. 360 by 480mm 14 by 19 inches. Original copper engraving published 1624 in the famous historical Atlas Parergon Latin text-edition by Abraham Ortelius. Finely hand colored in wash and outline. Fine and early historical map on Thracia. The area on this map covers mainly Thracia in Northern Greece and parts of Romania. The map is ornated with three cartouches in the upper left corner the title cartouche on the lower and upper right side we find text cartouches. Villages and towns are shown as miniature views. Ortelius was born on 14 April 1527 in the city of Antwerp which was then in the Habsburg Netherlands modern-day Belgium. The Orthellius family were originally from Augsburg a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1535 the family had fallen under suspicion of Protestantism. Following the death of Ortelius's father his uncle Jacobus van Meteren returned from religious exile in England to take care of Ortelius. Abraham remained close to his cousin Emanuel van Meteren who would later moved to London. In 1575 he was appointed geographer to the king of Spain Philip II on the recommendation of Arias Montanus who vouched for his orthodoxy. He travelled extensively in Europe and is specifically known to have traveled throughout the Seventeen Provinces; in southern western northern and eastern Germany e.g. 1560 15751576; France 15591560; England and Ireland 1576; and Italy 1578 and perhaps twice or thrice between 1550 and 1558. Beginning as a map-engraver in 1547 he entered the Antwerp Guild of Saint Luke as an illuminator of maps. He supplemented his income trading in books prints and maps and his journeys included yearly visits to the Frankfurt book and print fair where he met Gerardus Mercator in 1554. In 1560 however when travelling with Mercator to Trier Lorraine and Poitiers he seems to have been attracted largely by Mercator's influence towards the career of a scientific geographer.

Notes: Abraham Cowley 1618 â€“ 1667 was one of the leading English poets of the 17th century. In his early years he was best known as a dramatist and satirist writing poetry of a â€œfanciful and decorousâ€ nature Britannica publishing his first collection at the age of 15. He came to be recognized as a contemporary to John Milton and his four books on the biblical kings broke new ground for the epic preparing the way for Miltonâ€™s Paradise Lost.

1688237161688 Abraham Cowley English Poetry Mistress Motto Pindar Ode Davideis Sylva RARE"What shall I do to be for ever knownAnd make the Age to come own"I shall like beasts or common people die Unless you write my elegy." – Abraham Cowley The MottoAbraham Cowley was one of the leading English poets during the 17th-century. This charming and rare edition was the last edition of the original one-volume printing. Following this edition the works were printed in multiple volumes. Famous poems such as 'The Motto' 'The Mistress' 'Ode to Pindar' and 'Davideis' are all included in this collection. The Pindaric Ode is especially interesting in that Cowley attempted to reproduce Pindar's works but in doing so he misinterpreted the metrical patterns and in doing so did not accurately reflect Pindar's poetry. He did however create one of the most famous odes ever written which would become the influence for William Wordsworth's famous ode "Intimations of Immortality."Item number: #23716Price: $750COWLEY AbrahamThe works of Mr. Abraham Cowley : consisting of those which were formerly printed: and those which he design'd for the press now published out of the authors original copiesLondon: Printed by J.M. for Henry Herringman. 1688.Details: · Collation: Complete with all pages; o Biography and Miscellanies – 58 41 1o The Mistress – 80o Pindarique Odes – 4 70 i.e. 68o Davideis plus other verses and works – 154 23 1 148· References: Lowndes 539; Perkin B 7.· Language: English· Binding: Leather; tight and secure· Size: ~12in X 8.25in 30.5cm x 21cmOur Guarantee:Very Fast.
