Born at Vlissingen Mellinus studied at Leyden and became Minister at St. Anthonispolder and Cellartshoek. The present "first" volume of his "History of Christian Martyrs" runs to 1520 it is the only volume ever published. It was dedicated by the author to Prince Maurits of Orange and to the Synode of Dordrecht who both rewarded the author with a good sum of money. The work showed great learning and was at the time much praised. The author planned to write a second volume but he died before this was really started. In 1622 Balthasar Lydius Minister at Dordrecht then was ordered to write the second volume but he also died so a second volume never appeared. Mellinus' Martyrologium especially enraged the Roman Catholics.With the bookplate of Paul Hildebrandt mounted on the front paste-down and an ownership stamp and inscription of "Ds. H.C.

LeClerc and on rear pastedown to the state of the engravings. <br/><br/>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
