Provenance: Thomas Willughby Baron Middleton signature "T. Willughby" on title. First English edition. Engraved folding map. 30 153 7pp. 8vo. In the dedication of the original French edition of 1655 Pagan calls on Cardinal Mazarin to "take possession of the Amazon and establish several colonies. He proves that it would not be a difficult enterprise and large armies and many pieces of artillery would not be necessary. The map drawn by Pagan is of great importance as a proof of the French ambitions in the Amazon regions." Borba de Moraes. However in the English edition at hand translator William Hamilton urges the King of England to take the same action in his "Epistle Dedicatory." It is accompanied by the same map as found in the first edition. "This translation is rare." Borba de Moraes.<br /> <br /> Scarce especially compete with the map.

First and only Dutch edition very rare second and last issue of a great classic of French fortification by Blaise François Pagan 1604-1665 first published in French in 1645 and here based on the greatly revised and expanded German edition by Johan Jacob Wertmüller published in 1684. Pagan was a major influence on Vauban but Vauban's advances in the 1670s rendered the older manual out of date. Wertmüller's 1684 Frankfurt edition brought it up to date giving it new life for seventy years. The present edition the last in any language was first published by Joan Block in The Hague in 1738 and is here reissued with a cancel title-page but with the same engraved half-title though the title-page calls it a second edition. We have located only one other copy of the 1745 issue at Leiden University Library.With manuscript notes on the half-title and title-page. With marginal water stains at the lower outside corner and many plates and text quires somewhat browned or foxed but otherwise in good condition. Binding rubbed and worn at the hinges.

Pagan</strong> Prentice Hall 1981 Hardcover</p><p><strong>Description</strong></p><p>Frank G. Pagan's <em>Formal Specification of Programming Languages</em> provides a broad structured introduction to the <strong>formal description techniques</strong> used to define programming languages with mathematical precision. Written at a time when formal methods were becoming central to programming‑language theory the book surveys:</p><ul><li><p><strong>algebraic specification</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>operational semantics</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>denotational semantics</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>attribute grammars</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>syntax‑directed definitions</strong></p></li><li><p><strong>verification‑oriented specification frameworks</strong></p></li></ul><p>Pagan's "panoramic" approach emphasizes conceptual clarity and comparative understanding making this volume a valuable reference for researchers in <strong>programming‑language theory</strong> <strong>compiler design</strong> and <strong>formal methods</strong>.
