Fine Turkish Original two b/w photos of SS Üsküdar. 9x14 cm. SS Üsküdar was a small passenger ferry built in Germany for the Turkish company Sirket-i Hayriye and launched in 1927. She sank in lodos weather on March 1, 1958 in the Gulf of Izmit. The accident killed 272 people on board including seven crew, 39 survived the incident. SS Üsküdar was built by F. Schichau Shipyard in Elbing, Germany in 1927 with funnel number 72. She was the first of two identical vessels the Turkish urban transportation company Sirket-i Hayriye commissioned in the Republican era. She was 33 m (108 ft) long with a beam of 6.6 m (22 ft) and a draft of 2 m (6.6 ft). Three steam engines of 350 shp (260.99 kW) propelled her initially at 10 knots (19 km/h; 12 mph), which later dropped to 8 knots (15 km/h; 9.2 mph). SS Üsküdar was capable of carrying 344 passengers. 430 lifejackets, 35 lifebuoys and two lifeboats were on board the ferry. SS Üsküdar was on scheduled shuttle trips on the Sea of Marmara between Izmit and Degirmendere, a town on the southern coast of the Gulf of Izmit. On March 1, 1958, "lodos", a heavy SW storm was raising high seas. Mehmet Asçi, captain of SS Üsküdar, departed the ferry three minutes before the scheduled time of 12:30 local time from Izmit Pier, because the vessel was more vulnerable at the pier than at open sea. Shipmate Ali Kaya, who jumped onto the pier and untied the hawser, could not return to the ferry as the ship suddenly left the pier. The ferry had nine crew and 302 passengers aboard including 76 students from a local vocational high school. As the ferry headed to Degirmendere, high waves raised by the storm blowing at 130 km/h (81 mph) rocked the small vessel. The bridge broke off and fell into water, taking the captain and the boatswain with it. The rudder chain broke leaving the ferry uncontrollable. Water filled the engine room and the front passenger department after breaking the window glass. 26 minutes from her departure, SS Üsküdar careened over on the port side and sank at 12:53 local time. 272 people died including 38 students and seven crew. 37 passengers and two crew survived the disaster. Eight days after the incident, the Turkish Navy started a search and rescue operation. The muddy seabed hindered salvage efforts. On March 19, 1958, after eleven days of endeavors, the wreck was lifted with three slings off the 35 m (115 ft) deep seabed. Four corpses were recovered. It was observed that at some places, the steel sheets of the ship's hull were torn. (Wikipedia).

In 4°, pp. (2), VIII, 263, (1). Legatura alle armi in pieno marocchino, titolo al dorso, tagli rossi. Le dodici tavole di cui si parla sono la prima codificazione scritta del diritto romano, la cui redazione risale alla metà del V secolo a.C. Questo corpus deriva dai “mores”, cioè l’insieme di leggi che avevano fino allora codificazione orale. Secondo Tito Livio e altre fonti antiche, allo scopo di produrre le dodici tavole, il Senato romano inviò in Grecia una delegazione di ambasciatori per studiare le leggi di Atene e di altre città. Le tavole, non si sa di quale materiale, sarebbero state affisse nel Foro e distrutte nel sacco di Roma del 390 a.C. All’epoca della dissertazione di Stramigioli, abate pesarese, sulla scia delle obiezioni di Vico e della riflessione sul diritto romano apertasi nel XVIII secolo, si era aperto un dibattito secondo il quale i Romani non avrebbero fatto questa spedizione: fra i sostenitori di questa ipotesi troviamo Francesco Maria Ganassoni, al quale lo Stramigioli si rivolge direttamente nelle prime tre sue dissertazioni. Curiosa e originale la quarta dissertazione, nella quale si affronta il tema della nautica e della capacità romana di navigare in epoca romana. Alle sette dissertazioni sulle XII tavole se ne aggiunge un’ottava (“sopra le correnti gramatiche della lingua latina”) in cui l’autore contesta il metodo corrente per insegnare “a’ fanciulli detta lingua col mezzo delle medesime”. 2 According to some studies, the XII plates, i.e. the oldest written codification in Roman law, couldn’t have a Greek source. Stramigioli strongly sustains, in this work, that a Roman delegation was on the contrary sent to Athens, to put together this code. In the fourth dissertation the author address the issue to the Roman ability to sail (and so going to Greece).
