1850ABC_47715Qajar Iran 1850. Contemporary limp leather and woven floral-patterned cloth. 8vo 12.5 x 22 cm. Persian manuscript on polished paper. Black nasta'liq script in 15 lines per page ruled in green and blue with rubricated chapter headings and marginal medallions. A beautifully presented Persian manuscript comprising a unique guide to the barren crossing from Kerman to Kandahar in mid-19th century Qajar Persia. The guide perhaps actually used by two Russian owners whose inscriptions are extant on the front free endpaper in fact covers several routes through what is today south-eastern Iran and western Afghanistan providing reliable information on distances water sources and other relevant data. For instance a reader is told the number of houses in the most populated villages - and consequently the odds of spending the night sheltered indoors at a host's home. - The journey begins in the town of Kerman originally founded as a Sasanian outpost and proceeds to explain one's options to travel to the ancient city of Kandahar; also included are several other routes. The distances daily destinations and road options are all covered in detail for each journey. Apart from these practicalities a traveller also receives tips on the shrines or other tourist spots one might visit on a given day of travel.With two inscriptions in pre-reform Russian cursive on the front free endpaper dated 1855 and 1917. The first inscription appears to be a translation for the benefit of a Minister of the Russian Empire. The second mentions a journey across Afghanistan and Baluchistan possibly with the aid of this very manuscript or perhaps it was a souvenir. Certainly an interesting piece of travel writing and one designed not solely for the armchair traveller. Light wear to cloth though it is remarkably unfaded. Aside from one minor dampstain interior is bright and clean. hardcover

Provenance: Fernand Gaulthier armorial bookplate.<br /> <br /> A rare Lyonese edition of a popular pocket guidebook for priests.<br /> <br /> A succinct survey of every aspect of the priesthood the text opens with the meaning of sacerdos priest a definition of the job: the care and salvation of human souls and the requirements for fulfilling this office: basic literacy and the ability to express oneself correctly. From abstract concepts to practical applications the fundamental tenets of the Christian Church are methodically reviewed: the articles of faith seven deadly sins cardinal and theological virtues three keys of the church three parts of penitence etc. as are the different kinds of sacraments the materials used for them and their meanings and the various clerical offices. The telegraphically short entries with abundant use in this small format edition of abbreviations permitted the inclusion of a vast amount of indispensable knowledge for the practicing priest. The last third of the text is devoted to an equally condensed introduction to the Computus with headline Abbreviatio compoti the all-important calculation of time based on the yearly date of Easter; it includes mnemonic verses and syllables. <br /> <br /> “The Cura clericalis reflecting the received wisdom on the subject defined four rules for the priest. He was to be a celebrant of Masses and so needed to understand the basic texts and to be able to pronounce the Latin grammatically and clearly. He must be a minister of the other sacraments and so needed to know what and how many they were to grasp the essential matter of the sacrament and be able to distinguish it from the peripheral features and to know the proper mode of administration. He was to be a confessor and so must above all be able to distinguish venial from deadly sin . Finally he was to be a ‘plebis doctor’ the teacher of his people able to instruct them in the articles of faith and the other precepts of God†E.

Original publisher's blind-stamped green cloth lettered in gilt to spine. Lightly rubbed marked spine sunned. Internally clean and crisp. 'Let us all pray for New Zealand that it may please Almighty God to avert the evils of a civil war from this newly-acquired and interesting colony'. The sole edition of an authoritative work of ecclesiastical geography that provides a detailed account of the rise and progress of Protestant missions throughout the world. The anonymous compiler provides detailed information on the political and colonial history of the regions in which missionaries laboured as well as valuable accounts of the 'superstitions' of the natives including instances of human sacrifice the 'prevalence of Paganism and Mahommetanism' cannibalism and the practice of 'Devil-Worship'. The majority of the text is devoted to the missions of Africa and India though extensive chapters relate Christian efforts in inter alia the West Indies Australasia and North America. In regards to West Indies the author provides notices on the origin of the Slave Trade its abolition and the death of the 'ever-to-be revered Mr. Wilberforce'. The chapter concerning North America is predominantly dedicated to Canada in particular the operations of the Hudson's Bay Fur Companies and the 'Native Indians of these Territories favourable to British trade'. The chapter concerning Australasia is divided between New Holland and New Zealand and notably include remarks in character and appearance of the Aborigines and 'the most warlike savages in the world' the New Zealanders respectively. The section on New Zealand strikingly concludes with a brief account of the eruption of conflicts between British and native forces that would prove to be the initial sorties of the bloody and protracted New Zealand Wars. .

The guide moves from tours of Italy and Switzerland all the way to Poland Lithuania and Turkey as well as Great Britain providing 8 engraved plates of national costumes along the way. The charming illustrations depict: a young woman of 'Batz' Bath; a woman of Civita-Vechia Romagna; a citizen of Seville; a young woman of Gaeta Two Sicilies; a boatman from Le Havre a woman of Oberhash Switzerland; the Vizier of Constantinople; and finally a female Athenian. The commentary passes from the historical to contemporary details of travel between major destinations and occasional remarks of art-historical interest. Florence is noted to contain in the same breath the sepulcres of Galileo Aretino Machiavelli and Alfieri the latter having been sculpted by Canova p 72. England Scotland and Ireland are noted very much in passing: although the empire stretches 'to the Ganges' the islands themselves are accorded little interest. The guide does mention "the reknown of the univeristy of Oxford the most learned in England" with no mention however of its more easterly counterpart.</p><p>Unrecorded in OCLC no U.S. copy traced.</p><p> ICCU 1175063<br /><br /></p> Fratelli Reycend paperback
