Each Plate Has Small Glue Marks On Reverse Where They Were Tipped In To An Album. Francesco Morosini 26 February 1619 - 16 January 1694 Was The Doge Of Venice From 1688 To 1694 At The Height Of The Great Turkish War. He Was A Member Of A Famous Noble Venetian Family The Morosini Family Which Produced Several Doges And Generals. In 1685 At The Outbreak Of The Morean War Morosini Took Command Of A Fleet Against The Ottomans. Over The Next Several Years He Captured The Morea With The Help Of Otto Wilhelm Königsmarck As Well As Lefkada And Parts Of Western Greece. He Also Briefly Captured Athens But Was Unable To Hold It And Attempted A Failed Siege Of The Former Venetian Fortress Of Negroponte. His Fame Reached Such Heights That He Was Given The Victory Title Peloponnesiacus And Was The First Venetian Citizen To Have A Bronze Bust Placed During His Own Lifetime In The Great Hall. During The Siege Of Athens In 1687 The Parthenon Was Used As A Powder Magazine By The Ottomans When On September 26 1687 Morosini's Cannon Scored A Direct Hit On The Edifice. An Attaché Of The Swedish Field Commander General Otto Wilhelm Königsmarck Wrote Later: "How It Dismayed His Excellency To Destroy The Beautiful Temple Which Had Existed Three Thousand Years!". By Contrast Morosini Who Was The Commander In Chief Of The Operation Described It In His Report To The Venetian Government As A "Fortunate Shot". When He Conquered The Acropolis In Early 1688 Morosini Tried To Loot Athena's And Poseidon's Horses And Chariots From The West Pediment Of The Parthenon But The Sculptures Fell On The Ground And Smashed. This Was The First Documented Attempt To Remove Sculptures From The Pediments. Morosini Also Looted From The Port Of Piraeus The Famous Piraeus Lion Which Is On Display At The Venetian Arsenal. In The Summer Of 1688 Morosini Now Having Been Proclaimed Doge Of Venice Attacked Negropont But Was Unable To Capture It And Was Forced To Return To Venice When Plague Broke Out Among His Troops. He Embarked On A Final Campaign In 1693 But Was Again Unsuccessful In Taking Negropont And Returned To Venice After Sacking Some Minor Coastal Towns. After His Death In 1694 A Large Marble Arch Was Placed In His Honor At The Doge's Palace. <br/> <br/> Giovanni. Battista Hacque/ Hacque, Johann Baptist unknown

Each Plate Has Small Glue Marks On Reverse Where They Were Tipped In To An Album. Silvestro Valiero Or Valier Venice 28 March 1630 - Venice 7 July 1700 Was The 109Th Doge Of Venice Reigning From His Election On 25 February 1694 Until His Death Six Years Later. The Morean War Between The Republic Of Venice And The Ottoman Empire Which Had Been Ongoing Since 1684 Came To An End During Valiero's Reign As Doge In January 1699. He Was The Son Of Bertuccio Valiero Who Had Served As Doge From 1656 To 1658. Venice's War With The Ottoman Empire - The Morean War - Was Only One Part Of The Ottoman Empire's Struggle Against The Holy League Of 1684. On 11 September 1697 Ottoman Forces Were Defeated By Troops Of The Holy Roman Empire And The Kingdom Of Hungary At The Battle Of Zenta. This Decisive Battle Led To The Ottoman Empire's Determination To End The Great Turkish War And Peace Negotiations Began At Sremski Karlovci. These Negotiations Eventually Produced The Treaty Of Karlowitz Signed On 26 January 1699 And Ending The Great Turkish War Including The Morean War. Under The Treaty Venice Received The Morea Aegina Lefkada And Zakynthos Zante. Most Venetians Felt They Gained Far Too Little Territory To Compensate For The Huge Loss Of Life And Expense Of The Wars With The Ottoman Empire. The Republic Was Exhausted By The Long War And Facing Economic Distress But Little Changed For Valiero And He Continued Hosting Banquets Receptions And Parties At Which He Entertained Persons Of Rank. <br/> <br/> Giovanni.

162134518Lisbon and Hangzhou China: Manuscripts ca.1623 and 1621. Very Rare A Similar Manuscript Exists in Brussels. We know of no others. The Latin text of both letters is written in a neat uniform cursive hand in brown. Folio leaves 33 x 20.5 cm The transcripts bound in 18th Century stiff blue wrappers the blank paste-downs and endpapers are late 18th century most likely the third quarter between 1745/1753 and 1776 since they contain a clear "lion/vryheit/pro patria" watermark with a crowned GR countermark which resembles Heawood 3148 3149 and 3154. The paper used for the manuscript contains a faint double-headed eagle watermark and it has been reinforced in the gutters. A very pleasing survival very well preserved edges slightly mellowed the wrappers show some signs of wear. VERY RARE MANUSCRIPT TRANSCRIPTS. Chrysostomus Johann Gall 1586-1643 was a German Jesuit and scholar. He left Ingolstadt Germany to teach astronomy mathematics and navigation in Lisbon fro 1620to 1627 before leaving to work in the Jesuit missions in India. The Colégio de Santo Antŕo benefitted from the arrival of many foreign mathematicians and other scholars as Lisbon serves as a gateway for all missionaries departing for Asia. The original letter by Gall was written in Lisbon September 1623 and concerns a newspaper style description of various events including details of the perseution of Christians in Japan particularly the execution of large numbers of the Christian community in Nagasaki in 1622.<br> The second letter in the present work is especially interesting as the original was written by Johannes Terentius also known as Johannes Schreck an Deng Yuhan Hanpo 1576-1630. Terentius was a prominent Jesuit scholar specialized in natural science and mathematics. Before joining the Jesuits as a novice1611 he already enjoyed a grea reputation in Germany as a scholar. In 1621 Terentius left for China to join the Jesuit mission. The original letter by Terentius was written in Hangzhou China on 30 August 1621 to the rector of teh Jesuit College in Munich Jakob Keller 1568-1631. He discusses his journey to China which he started in 1618 his intentions to participate in the planned calendar reform in China and his impressions of the city of Hangzhou which he reached in 1621 Terentius wrote several works on european medicine mathematics and technology in Chinese and together with Johann Adam Schall von Bell and G. Roho introduced European tigonometry and European astronomical instruments to China. In 1629 he began to reform the calendar which J.A. Schall von Bell ocmpleted after Terentius' early death a year later.<br><br>Backer & Sommervogel VII col. 1929-F<br> Manuscripts unknown
