15705000917Rome: apud Haeredes Antonii Bladii 1570. In excellent original condition. Small quarto 4 leaves the last blank; woodcut device on title; page numbers in ink from an earlier binding within a volume; in a later plain wrappers binding and a folding case. <p><p>Extremely rare printed letter from King Sebastian of Portugal to Pope Pius V in which the king asks for more priests especially Jesuits stressing the significance of Portuguese conquests in the Far East in the process detailing the number of ships laden with treasure and trade goods arriving daily in Lisbon.</p> <p>The strategic relationships between the rulers of Portugal and Spain with the papacy were crucial in the discovery and colonisation period. The splitting of the new world enacted by the treaty of Tordesillas left the Portuguese and Spanish eager to exploit any advantage that could be gained and often the evangelisation of pagan natives was used to justify territorial ambitions; it was often in these pious terms that the pope was lobbied for his support.</p> <p>This letter from Sebastian is an excellent example of the sort of lobbying that took place. Donald Lach has written extensively about the nature of the exotic in the East Indies and the Far East describing how these printings often encompass exotic subjects for which monarch and pope both had a taste. In his relations with Pius V's namesake and predecessor for example Sebastian had been asked for and had promised a pair of elephants for the papal menagerie see Lach II 1 150n.</p> <p>The printing of letters and diplomatic orations such as this formed a critical part of the lobbying. Important records of the significance accorded to the new world it seems that they were generally printed in small numbers for limited circulation hence the tiny survival rate of any of these early works with this example particularly uncommon: USTC records five copies four of them in Italy and WorldCat adds another at Yale while the last copy that we can identify on the market was that offered by Maggs Bros in 1935.</p> <p>---</p> <p>At Sebastian's death fighting the Moors in north Africa the destiny of Portugal changed completely and from then on she would be under Spanish sway. "When at last she found herself again a free and independent state 1640 the sceptre of the Indies had passed irrevocably to Holland and England' Penrose p. 75. Nonetheless Sebastian still occupies a most important position in Portuguese history in which he has been compared with King Arthur or Barbarossa: he was known as the "sleeping king" who would mysteriously return at Portugal's time of great need. 'He would then be known by symbolic names: O Encoberto The Hidden One who would return on a foggy morning to save Portugal; or as O Desejado The Desired. The legend was vigorously promoted through the massive circulation of popular rhymes trovas written by Bandarra. Even as late as the 19th century Sebastianist peasants in the Brazilian sertão believed that the kings would return to help them in their rebellion against the "godless" Brazilian republic.' Wikipedia.</p> <p>Pius V reigned from 1566 to 1572: his reign was largely pre-occupied with the war against the Turks - the battle of Lepanto was won the year after this publication. In 1570 Goa was attacked by the Indian army but the Portuguese successfully defended it. Also in 1570 Sebastian issued orders that the Brazilian Indians used for slavery should be released from captivity.</p> </p> .

Provenance: António Romão dos Passos 1866-1951 signature in ink Antonio Passos / agronomo or Anto R. Passos scrawled across both titles the first with price note and on six text leaves. <br /> <br /> Only edition of a comprehensive overview of the Portuguese silk industry by the judicial magistrate of the Moncorvo district and author of several works on political economy and history of law. José Antonio de Sá d. 1819 a native of Bragança was an important proponent of modernization of the industry and later served as director of the Royal Silk Factory Real Fábrica das Sedas founded in 1802 in Lisbon. He was one of the earliest members of the Academia Real das Sciencias of Lisbon.<br /> <br /> Silkworms were raised in Portugal as early as the 13th century. Sericulture and silk production were concentrated in the northeastern province of Trás-os-Montes its largest center being the city of Bragança which from the 15th to 17th century was known throughout Europe for its luxurious velvets. Because of the lack of government support for industry frequent wars and above all the persecutions of the Inquisition which decimated an industry in all sectors of which Jews or converted Jews cristãos-novos played a major role Portuguese silk production suffered from intermittent crises and was even periodically decimated. Starting in the 1770s efforts to revive the industry began to have an effect: <br /> <br /> “By the end of the 18th century the Trás-os-Montes silk industry had dragged itself out of the crisis that had begun in 1750-1755 coinciding with the last incursion of the Inquisition into Bragança and embarked upon a period of great development accompanying the industrial expansion that was then taking place not only in that particular region but throughout the Portuguese kingdom. After the Inquisition’s systematic persecution of businessmen weavers and throwers had finally come to an end the continuity and expansion of the silk industry seemed to be a viable prospect. In the last two decades of the 18th century a remarkable process of modernization took place thanks to the efforts of the businessmen involved in this economic activity such as António José Lopes Fernandes who installed 200 silk looms in Bragança magistrates such as José António de Sá and Pereira de Barros and politicians such as Martinho de Melo e Castro and Rodrigo de Sousa Coutinho the latter being the Portuguese ambassador to Piedmont Italy. These efforts included the adoption of Piedmontese methods and techniques namely the organzine mill and the spinning-jenny the most advanced ones at that time in Europe in an operation led by experts coming to Portugal from that Italian region.†Sousa p. 6<br /> <br /> Sá’s work is in three parts. The first part comprises an overview of the history of silk production starting with Antiquity and summaries of the industry and government policies toward it in other countries followed by a detailed recommendation with responses to projected objections that the Portuguese government undertake a campaign to plant mulberry trees and promote the industry generally. Part two is a treatise on the silkworm and part three a technical survey of “the art of silk spinning.†Explained in the text pp. 142-148 is the letter- and number-keyed engraving of a rather fanciful machine showing a vat for softening the cocoons heating on the left from which a thread-unwinding mechanism feeds a loom on the right. <br /> <br /> The reason for the duplicated title-leaf in this copy is not clear. Perhaps one functioned as an upper wrapper — but as both titles are preceded by a half-title that appears unlikely. The book collector Antonio Romão dos Passos b. February 28 1866 was an engineer and agronomist. Other books from his library all on practical subjects are recorded; four are digitized by the Biblioteca Nacional Digital de Portugal. One a treatise on hemp has a similar indelicately scrawled signature across the title. <br /> <br /> OCLC gives six US locations.
