New New Turkish Original bdg. Dust wrapper. In special box. 4to. (30 x 22 cm). In Turkish. 2 volumes set: ([xxxii], 543 p.; [6], 519 p., 81 numerous b/w plates). Beçin definesi. 2 volumes set. [BOXED]. "It is generally accepted that debasement greatly contributed to the economic and conse-quently also social problems of the Ottoman Empire in the late 16th/early 17th century. The numismatic data derived from the Beçin coin hoard, closing under sultan Ahmed (1603-1617) greatly challenges this view. Metal analysis has shown that only the overall weights of the coins were reduced; the ?neness of silver remained unchanged at least until the 1610s.".

Pianta a proiezione verticale, orientata con il nord in alto, 1769 circa. Si tratta di una piccola e rara riduzione del Nolli. Scaccia Scarafoni cita un esemplare con sottoscrizione Dom. Pront. F. in R(oma) 1770, mentre il nostro esemplare e quello illustrato su Marigliani sono probabilmente prove ante la firma. “Titolo scritto sul piedistallo di una statua in basso a sinistra. In basso a destra veduta di piazza del Popolo. A destra una legenda di 116 numeri su due colonne. La pianta è incisa con cura grafica e dovizia di dettagli a dispetto del formato ridotto; alcune chiese, come ad esempio San Carlo al Corso e ovviamente San Pietro, vengono persino rappresentate con la pianta interna. I lotti edificati sono campiti in nero” (cfr. Marigliani p. 282). Acquaforte, in ottimo stato di conservazione. Bibliografia Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): p. 116, n. 232; Marigliani (2007): p. 282, n. 202. Vertical projection map, oriented with north at the top, circa 1769. This is a small and rare reduction of the Nolli map of Rome (1748). Scaccia Scarafoni mentions an example with subscription Dom. Pront. F. in R(oma) 1770, while our example and the one illustrated on Marigliani are probably proofs, before the imprint. Title written on the pedestal of a statue in the lower left corner. Bottom right view of Piazza del Popolo. To the right a legend of 116 numbers in two columns. The map is engraved with graphic care and abundance of detail despite the small format, some churches, such as San Carlo al Corso and of course St. Peter, are even represented with the internal plan. The built lots are depicted in black (cf. Marigliani p. 282). Etching, in excellent condition. Literature Scaccia Scarafoni (1939): p. 116, n. 232; Marigliani (2007): p. 282, n. 202.

"The president of the Association which was founded in 1932, was H.E. Sir Miles Lampson (1880-1964). He was a British diplomat who was appointed High Commissioner for Egypt and Sudan in 1934. As a result of the Anglo-Egyptian Treaty in December 1936, to which Lampson was a signatory, Britain loosened its grip on Egypt and the post title was changed to Ambassador to Egypt and High Commissioner for Sudan in 1936. Lampson continued in this office until 1946. Vice presidents were Sir Stenson Cooke and J. A. Crawford. According to the ETA's service page of the guide, the purpose of the association can be determined as "Association was formed to provide a long-felt want in Egypt, that is, a touring club in the true sense of the word, devoted to the interests of all kinds of travelers. It's a non-profit making co-operative organization with the aim of making the path of the motorist, the airman, the camper, and every other kind of traveler pleasanter and smoother. The E.T.A. is officially recognized by the Egyptian Government and already in its short existence has grown enormously, being able to offer the following very real services to its members: Expert and detailed advice on all touring matters. Expert advice on motoring matters and vetting of cars. Free itineraries to all parts of Egypt and abroad. Reminders are sent to all members when a car and driving license is due for renewal. Renewal of car and driving licenses. Free legal defense for motoring offenses. Triptyques, carnets, and all documents for foreign touring, including passport arrangements. Agents at Alexandria, PortSaid, Suez, and the principal ports to look after the incoming and outgoing motorist and relieve him of all worry.

[i.e. the Alliance Internationale de Tourisme], of which the E.T.A. is a member. Recommended hotels and garages throughout Egypt and the Near East. Insurance for members can be effected at the most advantageous rates, and advice is given. Cars can be driven to any part of Egypt, by experienced drivers. Guides are provided. Other benefits, it is hoped, will be given in due of course.". Not located in OCLC. "1938-39 Edition" of the series (not published more than two years) is located in OCLC in no. 862336537.

Osman Nuri Ergin was the initiator of the studies regarding modern municipalities' studies and gave so many qualified books related to Ottoman-Turkish urbanism and municipalities' studies scientifically. He was also the first scholar who was one of the architectures of municipalities' studies and the history of urbanism and education. Since he worked as an officer for the government during World War I, the time of Abdulhamid II, and at the time of the young Republic, he was one of the figures who know the cultural and social changes in Turkish society. During this cultural transformation, he played the role of a bridge between Ottoman culture and modern-day Turkey with the help of some enlightened scholars. He had so many attempts to transform the Ottoman Sufi culture into the next generations. To reach this goal, he wrote so many valuable books. OCLC 216699691.
