Fine Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original wrappers. 4to. (28 x 20 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 727 p., richly illustrated. Lithography from the chapograph text. Rare complete translation of this early Turkish edition by French mathematician and rector of the University of Paris Paul Emile Appell. In mathematics, an Appell sequence (or equations, or polynomials), is named after him, as is rue Paul Appell in the 14th arrondissement of Paris and the minor planet 988 Appella. "In mechanics, he proposed an alternative formulation of analytical mechanics known as Appell's equation of motion. He discovered a physical interpretation of the imaginary period of the doubly periodic function whose restriction to real arguments describes the motion of an ideal pendulum" (Wikipedia). The translator Mustafa Salim (1873-?) gave lectures on differential and integral calculations, high algebra, technical mechanics, and mathematical mechanics at Hendese-i Mülkiye-i Sâhâne, Darülfünûn [i.e. House of Sciences] and Darüssafaka, which were outstanding schools of the time.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original full dark brown leather bdg. Decorated borders on boards, five compartments on the spine, second lettered gilt in the title. Cr. 8vo. (19 x 14 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 294 p., 17 folded engraved plates, and richly engraved illustrations. Early edition of this extremely rare encyclopedic book of the first comprehensive Ottoman engineering including the firsts in Ottoman literature of science, especially on various subjects of modern physics and mechanics, cartography, map making, surveying, arrangement of army camps, construction of pulleys, cannon shooting, etc. This book was written by Hüseyin Rifki, who was the chief professor of the Mühendishâne [i.e. Ottoman Engineering School] and was assigned to Medina, Arabia in 1816 to repair the holy buildings in Medina, Arabia. Another important aspect of the book is that it contains the ratios between the measurements used in various European countries before the meter system and the Ottoman measurements, as well as French measures and scales. Early typographic imprint on European paper with a watermark. Hüseyin Rifki translated the ancient mathematician Euclid's book Elements, in which he laid the foundations of geometry, from the English original of the English mathematician John Bonnycastle (1760-1821) in 1789, into Turkish with the name of "Usul-i Hendese", together with Selim Efendi, a converted English engineer. He was appointed as "Engineering-i Berri-i Hümâyûn Serhocasi" [i.e. The Chief Professor of the Engineering School] after the Code of Engineers was put into effect in 1806. He served as the chief teacher between 1806 and 1816. He was sent to the Balkans in 1816 and then was assigned to repair the holy buildings in Medina, Arabia. He died in 1817, just after returning from Mecca to Medina. Özege 12620.; TBTK 14349.; This edition is not located in OCLC.
Fine Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Paperback. 4to. (30 x 21 cm). In Ottoman script. 9 p. Süleyman Sirri Aral, (1874-1925), was the pioneer of water engineering in Turkey. He was born in Thessaloniki (Salonica), his father was Müderris Yusuf Efendi. Her mother Zühre Hanim and Atatürk's mother Zübeyde Hanim were sibling grandchildren. He was a graduate of the Turkish School of Engineers. He worked as Deputy Chief Engineer of Syrian Public Works, Yanya [i.e. Ioannina] Central Engineering and "Idâdî" Teacher, Baghdad Geometry and Flood Barrier Engineering for the Hindiyye Flood Barrier between 1906-1908, Jerusalem and Bursa Public Works Chief Engineer. He played an important role in the Konya Irrigation Project, (1907-1913). This report is the first one on the Menderes [= Meander] river improvement in 1924. The Büyük Menderes River (historically the Maeander or Meander), is a river in southwestern Turkey. It rises in west-central Turkey near Dinar before flowing west through the Büyük Menderes graben until reaching the Aegean Sea in the proximity of the ancient Ionian city Miletus. The word "meander" is used to describe a winding pattern, after the river. The river rises in a spring near Dinar and flows to Lake Isikli. After passing the Adigüzel Dam and the Cindere Dam, the river flows past Nazilli, Aydin, and Söke before it drains into the Aegean Sea. The Maeander was a celebrated river of Caria in Asia Minor. It appears earliest in the Catalog of Trojans of Homer's Iliad along with Miletus and Mycale. In this report, there's usual information on the Meander River with its geography and history. The second chapter includes the reasons for the improvement of the river and accounts about it with a detailed table. This is an early water engineering book printed in the Ottoman Empire. Extremely rare. First and Only Edition. Not in Özege.; Not in OCLC.; Four copies in the National Library of Turkey.

Very Good Turkish Paperback. Some rubbed on cover. 4to. (28 x 20 cm). In Turkish. 16, [6] p., 6 unnumbered b/w plates. Cümhuriyet Türkiyesi, elektrikli Türkiye. Book includes first works from on the electricity supplied and opening of the last electric factory in Turkey, first ten years of early Republican period, 1923-1933, with fine plates and statistical tables. Hasan Halet Isikpinar, was a Turkish engineer and professor. He initially graduated from Robert College as an electrical engineer in 1916, being the first Turkish graduate of the engineering department. He advanced his studies to receive a degree of mechanical engineering from the same institution in 1922. After his assistantship in Robert College from 1923 to 1925, he attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology until 1928 and graduated as the first Turkish student of the university. He kept his tenure as a professor in Robert College in the department of engineering until 1934, where he contributed to the advancement of the department of electrical engineering to a significant extent. He led over 800 engineering projects in Turkey, majority of which being the first examples within the newly founded Turkish Republic. He was fluent in multiple languages including English, French, German and Italian, with his most notable works including widely sourced engineering books in these languages, including "L'Industrie Electrique et les Ressources Motrices de la Turquie", in which he stressed the importance of Turkey as a petroleum resource. He later presented his findings on the topic to Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. He is the son of Mehmet Halit Taspinar, a government officer with civilian Pasha rank equals to Ferik in the government of Abdul Hamid II, best known for passing critical government correspondence to Mustafa Kemal Atatürk during the Turkish War of Independence to support 'Kuva-yi Milliye' (National Forces).

Fine Fine Turkmen Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). Introduction in Turkmen, facsimile in Arabic. [2], 28, 256 p., color facsimiles of the earliest of all copies, dating 1206 (preserved in the Library of Topkapi Serai, Istanbul, No. 3472), color ills. [The book of knowledge of ingenious mechanical devices] Adatdan dasari mehanik gurallayn maglumaty hakda kitap. Al-Jazari was a Muslim polymath: a scholar, inventor, mechanical engineer, artisan, artist and mathematician. He is best known for writing 'The Book of Knowledge of Ingenious Mechanical Devices'. Kitab fi ma'rifat al-hiyal al-handasiya, (lit. 'Book in knowledge of engineering tricks') in 1206, where he described 100 mechanical devices, some 80 of which are trick vessels of various kinds, along with instructions on how to construct them. The only biographical information known about him is contained in his famed Book of Knowledge of Ingenious Mechanical Devices. Like his father before him, he served as chief engineer at the Artuklu Palace, the residence of the Mardin branch of the Artuqids which ruled across eastern Anatolia as vassals of the Zengid dynasty of Mosul and later of Ayyubid general Saladin. Al-Jazari was part of a tradition of artisans and was thus more a practical engineer than an inventor who appears to have been "more interested in the craftsmanship necessary to construct the devices than in the technology which lay behind them" and his machines were usually "assembled by trial and error rather than by theoretical calculation." His Book of Knowledge of Ingenious Mechanical Devices appears to have been quite popular as it appears in a large number of manuscript copies, and as he explains repeatedly, he only describes devices he has built himself. According to Mayr, the book's style resembles that of a modern "do-it-yourself" book. Some of his devices were inspired by earlier devices, such as one of his monumental water clocks, which was based on that of a Pseudo-Archimedes. He also cites the influence of the Banu Musa brothers for his fountains, al-Saghani for the design of a candle clock, and Hibatullah ibn al-Husayn (d. 1139) for musical automata. Al-Jazari goes on to describe the improvements he made to the work of his predecessors, and describes a number of devices, techniques and components that are original innovations which do not appear in the works by his precessors. The most significant aspect of al-Jazari's machines are the mechanisms, components, ideas, methods, and design features which they employ. (Source: Wikipedia). There are 50 devices that Al Jazari designed and explained how they function in his book and created technical drawings of them in such detail that allow to reconstruct in its original size, make, model and full functionally. This nice facsimile edition, fully executed in color, is based on a manuscript present in the Library of Topkapi Palace, (ms. no. 3472). It is dated 1206, andaccording to the foreword, is the earliest extant copy of al-Jazarî's work.
4to. (6), 161, (21) pp. With 58 figures on 10 (counting 1 as frontispiece) engraved plates, mostly folding. Contemporary half calf with label to gilt spine. Second edition of the work first published in Frankfurt in 1719 under a slightly different title and the pseudonym of "Gregorius Anglus Sallwigt". Important for the history of Rosicrucianism, "the mystical content of which is very much unclear" (Kopp). An enlarged version, entitled "Opus Mago-Cabbalisticum et Theosophicum [...]", was published in 1735 under the name of the author (who had died in 1727) and was reprinted in 1760 and 1784. Compared with later copies, the present one is not only more beautifully printed, but also has larger plates and is generally executed with greater accuracy. "The ten folding plates are of absorbing interest to the Rosecrucian turn of mind. Goethe studied this book intensively" (Hoover). Details about Welling (1652-1727), according to Hoover "a man of great learning but very superstitious", the various editions of his works and their content are provided by Frick, Die Erleuchteten, pp. 54, 491ff. and 426ff.: "At the beginning of the eighties of the 18th century, Welling's Opus Mago-Cabbalisticum became the most important text and instruction book of the Order of the Gold- and Rosicrucians [...] The fourth chapter of the first part, 'De mundo archetypo', was transferred almost verbatim into the instruction documents of the first Degree of the Order". - The fine engravings depict geometrical figures and cabbalistic symbols, among them the "Systema Magicum Universi". Slightly browned and insignificant spotting; occasional underlinings and pencil marginalia, otherwise a good copy. Ferguson II, 317. Duveen 526. Neu 4323. Ferchl 466. Mellon 150 (note). Kopp II, 240.
