PRESENTAZIONE DI FULVIO TESSITORE GUIDA 2000 144 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: PARI AL NUOVO, PERFETTO E INTONSO. Il libro rappresenta un vero e proprio spartiacque nella bibliografia di Sabatino Moscati. Fin dagli inizi dei propri studi, osservatorio di Moscati fu il Mediterraneo, più specificamente la sponda sud la cui identità è data dagli incontri e dagli scontri di popoli e culture che in esso si affacciano. Da qui l'interesse dello studioso non solo per il mondo arabo ma anche per quello ebraico. Gli esiti dei suoi studi non furono però l'esemplificazione giornalistica di intricati problemi e di significative scoperte archeologiche, ma dimostrarono la sua particolare attenzione a quelle interpretazioni rinnovatrici di un ambito importante del conoscere storico, al fine di cogliere l'identità dell'oggetto storico indagato.

Large Folio, measuring 56cm x 39cm (15.5 inches x 22 inches). Original printed wrappers. Text is in Italian. [6], 72, [2] pages, plus 7 engraved plates, 5 of which are double-page. Wrappers chipped at extremities, occasional foxing, otherwise in very good condition. Scarce valuable resource on Ptolemaic Egypt. A scarce account, rarely seen in original wrappers, Pieralisi's treatise is a noteworthy study of the late Hellenistic Nile Mosaic of Palestrina, which depicts Ptolemaic Egypt and dates to circa 100 B.C. The author, Don Sante Pieralisi, was a librarian of the Barberini Library in Rome with access to many early scholars' works. The mosaic's history and construction are described, followed by a presentation of some early and compelling theories of interpretation and dating, by such scholars as Barthelemy, Antonio Nibby, Carlo Fea, and Cassiano dal Pozzo (secretary to Francesco Barberini who was largely responsible for its restoration). Much history of ancient Egyptian life can be drawn from the mosaic scenes, including the Nile's yearly flooding, Nubian hunters, mythical or extinct creatures, Egyptian-Roman trade, contrasts between peasant dwellings and palatial life, the rise of magnificent walled cities guarded by Egyptian soldiers, etc. Remarkable engravings reproduce details of the historic masterpiece. The celebrated Nile mosaic dates to circa 100 B.C. during rule of the Ptolemaic Dynasty, the last dynasty of Ancient Egypt (305 BC to 30 BC) and forms an interesting connections between ancient Egyptian and Roman civilizations, and the its essence of its design has, for several centuries, been the center of much speculation. Shortly after publication, the observations by Don Sante Pieralisi accompanied the mosaic on display in the Palazzo Barberini, where it had been placed by Prince Barberini after restoration mid-seventeenth century. Equally interesting is a chapter dedicated to the Rosetta Stone, the ancient stele decree issued at Memphis, also during the Ptolemaic dynasty. The author relates details of the French expedition to Egypt which uncovered it in 1799, and the controversial repossession and transfer to England following the Capitulation of Alexandria. He further presents important details of the temples of Apis, Serapis, and Venus at Memphis, other hidden tombs of Memphis, and pertinent Egyptian rulers.

Spine slightly cocked. Wear with small tears to price clipped DJ. Previous owner's name to front endpaper ; St. John Philby spent much time in Arabia, with one foot in the Muslim world and one foot in the Western world, in Britain ; B&W Photographs; 8vo; 332 pages
8vo. 4 pages. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, containing other accounts as well, seldom found in such good and original condition. A favourable review of Philby's autobiography titled "Arabian Days" which was published earlier in the year and was so immediately popular that it was into a second printing, Cheesman deems the work to be a "fair self-portrait" which provides "a complete knowledge of the man." The summary of Philby's childhood, early civil service, and fortuitous connections, so clearly led him "into the desert" to fulfill his personal, spiritual and professional destinies.
