Mappa tratta dal Cl. Ptolemaei Alexandrini, Geographiae Libri Octo, pubblicata prima a Colonia da Gottfried von Kempen (1578) e poi ristampata dallo stesso editore nel 1584 (Van der Krogt 1, 502) e poi da Isaac Elsevier per il Theatrum Geographiae veteris di Petrus Bertius (Leyden 1618). Di tutte le edizioni di Tolomeo, quella di Gerard Kremer (Mercatore), pubblicata nel 1578, e forse tecnicamente la più bella. A questo punto la Geografia di Tolomeo perdeva però ogni pretesa di “attualità”, laddove lo scopo di Mercatore era quello di produrre un atlante del mondo classico che servisse da complemento al suo atlante moderno (per tale ragione egli aveva tentato di recuperare la forma originale dell’atlante tolemaico, scartandone le moderne accrezioni). L'interpretazione di Mercatore del testo tolemaico, per le 28 carte che illustrano la sua Geographia è stata, quindi, una delle più veritiere. Egli aveva passato 13 anni a ricercare, disegnare e incidere le carte, rinunciando anche alla pubblicazione delle sue carte “moderne”. Questo esemplare proviene dal Theatrum Geographia Veteris di Petrus Bertius edita a Leida nel 1618, che combina il Tolomeo di Mercator, le 8 tavole del Moretus per rappresentare la Tabula Peutingeriana e 14 mappe storiche delle regioni d'Europa derivate dal Parergon di Ortelius. Acquaforte su rame, in buone condizioni. Ptolemaic map of British Isles. Showing landmarks, major cities and towns, rivers and parks. The map is decorated with a strapwork title cartouche, a sea monster and a fishing scene in the North Sea. Map taken from the Cl. Ptolemaei Alexandrini, Geographiae Libri Octo, first published in Cologne by Gottfried von Kempen (1578) and then reprinted by the same publisher in 1584 (Van der Krogt 1, 502) and then by Isaac Elsevier for the Petrus Bertius’ Theatrum Geographiae veteris (Leyden 1618). Mercator's interpretation of the 28 Ptolemaic text was possibly one of the truest undertaken up until that time. He had spent 13 years researching, drawing and engraving the maps at much commercial sacrifice to himself, having seen Ortelius's Theatrum and De Jodes Speculum published, to become both technical and commercial successes. In later life he devoted himself to his edition of the maps in Ptolemy's Geographia, reproduced in his own engraving as nearly as possible in their original form. This example comes from the Theatrum Geographia Veteris of Petrus Bertius published in Leiden in 1618, which combines Mercator's Ptolemy, the 8 plates of Moretus to represent the Tabula Peutingeriana and 14 historical maps of the regions of Europe derived from the Parergon of Ortelius. Copperplate, in good condition.

pp. v, 199. Top edge decorated green. 8vo. Original full cloth binding, decorated and lettered in brown. Spine faded. Hardbound. First Edition. James Stephens (1882-1950) was left fatherless in the Dublin slums at the age of two. His mother remarried or took up with another man when James was about six years of age. She abandoned her young son and he was forced to go to the Meath Protestant Industrial School for Boys. The Meath School was cruel and harsh and he ran away to live in the streets or live with families that took to the likely boy. In 1905 'The Greatest Miracle' was published by Arthur Griffith in The United Irishman. Griffith became good friends with Stephens and published his works in his magazine know as the Sinn Fein. From 1905-1910, Stephens attended Gaelic League classes and become involved with political meetings. During this time he published several pieces which focused on Irish national pride, the importance of learning one's Irish language and customs, and remembering the ancient saga heroes. Stephens met many of his great contemporaries during this period including George Russell (AE), George Moore, W.B. Yeats, Lady Gregory, etc. In the year 1912, Stephens published The Charwoman's Daughter and later in the same year his noted work The Crock of Gold. The Crock of Gold was a great success and Stephens moved to Paris so he could concentrate on writing full time. Cynthia Kavanagh who had been his lover since 1907 accompanied him. He later married her in 1919. The Demi-Gods was published in 1914 and in 1915 he moved back to Dublin to become the Registrar of the National Gallery of Ireland (and stayed in that position till 1924). Stephens witnessed the shooting of a man as a result of the Easter Uprising in Dublin in 1916. This became a turning point for him as the event intensified his patriotic feelings and renewed his interest in old Irish literature. Stephens moved to London in the year 1925. He began a series of lecture tours which extended to the United States. In 1935 Stephens began a literary and personal friendship with James Joyce. His colleagues considered Stephens to be a genius who easily embraced fantasy, philosophy, and comedy - those who read him today will still be struck by his genius. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! STEPHENS/W77
