In-4, plein vélin rigide de l'époque, dos titré à la plume, (16), 364, (14) p. Edition princeps de la célèbre autobiographie testamentaire d'Uriel da Costa ('Exemplar humanae vitae'), composée à la veille de son suicide en 1640 et publiée "presque par hasard" (Daniel Lacerda) quarante-sept années après sa mort. Elle est insérée entre les pages 341 et 354 d'un recueil qu'un ministre calviniste arminien, Philip Van Limborch professeur à Amsterdam (1633-1712), consacre à la défense de la "vérité de la religion chrétienne", en discussion avec un Juif érudit, Isaac Orobio de Castro (c.1617-1687), lui-même réfugié du Portugal à Amsterdam. Éditée d'après un manuscrit et peut-être révisée, "Une vie humaine" est suivie de sa réfutation par Limborch. Né au sein d'une famille portugaise marrane, Uriel Da Costa (1585-1640) s'installa à Amsterdam en 1617 et revint au judaïsme, mais il entra bientôt en conflit avec la synagogue. Soumis à une humiliante pénitence publique, il se suicida. Ce document demeurait l'unique seule source d'informations sur Uriel da Costa jusqu'à la découverture récente (1990), à la bibliothèque d'Amsterdam, d'un exemplaire unique d'un autre de ses textes que l'on croyait perdu ("Exame das tradições fariseas") et qui le place aux côtés de Spinoza, dix années avant la condamnation de celui-ci, parmi les victimes du durcissement doctrinaire des autorités juives d'Amsterdam. "Cette autobiographie écrite par Uriel da Costa en 1640 avant de se suicider, reflète toute la culture et toutes les interrogations religieuses de cet esprit qui passa du christianisme-marranisme au judaïsme puis au sadducéisme, enfin au déisme vénérant la Nature. Juif portugais d'Amsterdam, Gabriel, devenu Uriel da Costa, reflète - lui et toute sa famille, affiliée à celle de Spinoza - les recherches de cette société des nouveaux convertis du Portugal et des pays occidentaux au XVII° siècle" (Béatrice Leroy).

Quelques rousseurs éparses. Petite trace de restauration de vélin au dos. Très bon exemplaire, très bien conservé dans sa première reliure hollandaise de vélin rigide.

It comprises a large leaf folded into a four-page document (last page blank), with 47 lines of text, date, and signature. "I request Your Excellency to be willing to accept this copy of the Military annals of the Dutch East-Indies," it opens, written in French. Expressing his appreciation to Randon's military achievements, he begs that the book will be presented to His Majesty the Emperor of the French, continuing, "Voilà monsieur le Maréchal ce qui me porte à vous offrir ce travail et à vous prier d'être mon interprète auprès de l'Auguste chef du peuple français pour que Sa Majesté daigne accepter un exemplaire de mon livre." The letter is in exceptionally fine condition though a bit foxed. Jacques Louis César Alexandre, Maréchal Comte Randon (1795-1871). The author, Abraham Jean Arnaud Gerlach, was born in 1811 in Groningen. He received his education at the Koninklijke Militaire Academie, graduating as Lieutenant of the Artillery. As Colonel he later had a long teaching career at the same academy, and contributed regularly to military studies and publications. He translated his "Fastes militaires des Indes" into Dutch, and published it in Zalt-Bommel and Paris in 1874-75 as the three-volume set "Neerlands heldenfeiten in Oost-Indië". He died in 1906. The importance of this work is remarkable: OCLC lists no less than 20 major North American libraries who keep a copy, including Johns Hopkins, Harvard, Washington, Princeton, and Columbia university libraries, as well as NYPL.
