17828291Madrid: Imprenta Real 1782. First Edition Primera edición. Hardcover Tapa dura. Madrid Imprenta Real s.a. 1782. En folio. 31 h. 326 136 24 pp. 1 lámina. Encuadernación en pergamino a la romana de finales del siglo diecinueve planos con rueda gofrada y flor en los vértices lomera con tejuelo en marroquén y letrería también dorada. Primera edición de las Ordenanzas de Intendentes para el virreinato del Río de la Plata posiblemente las ordenanzas más importantes que se dictaron para América. Las primeras ordenanzas se dieron para los cuerpos de intendentes en España en 1718 que después sirvieron de ejemplo para las de América. Las Ordenanzas definen a los Intendentes en América como magistrados puestos para fomentar la agricultura promover el comercio estimular la industria y favorecer la minería; la legislación general para los intendentes se fue configurando a medida que se iban solventando las deficiencias que aparecían en el ejercicio diario de sus funciones. La primeras ordenanzas en América se establecieron en Cuba en 1764. Las presentes Ordenanzas para el virreinato de Buenos Aires o Río de la Plata fueron las primeras que se realizaron para el continente americano y son la base de las leyes relativas al comercio y la hacienda en América durante el reinado de Carlos III hasta el fin de la dominación española en América. La premura en este virreinato fue producto de la situación de crisis y conflicto que la sublevación indígena había conseguido establecer en gran parte de su jurisdicción especialmente en el Alto Perú. Este levantamiento indígena que se dio de manera simultánea en distintos lugares tuvo uno de sus focos en Chayanta Potosí liderado por los hermanos Kataris el cual extendiéndose por el altiplano terminó contactando con el movimiento de Tupac Amaru y alcanzando un importante impacto en ciudades como Oruro o La Paz. Una de las quejas de los indígenas sublevados fue la extorsión y abusos de los corregidores. La reforma administrativa a partir de la aplicación del régimen de intendencias contemplaba entre uno de sus objetivos acabar con la odiosa figura del corregidor de indios y sustituirla por los subdelegados. Ejemplar con extensas anotaciones contemporáneas en los márgenes y con dos folios manuscritos adicionales. La primera hoja que contiene la lámina con el escudo está restaurada en el margen interior pero sin afectar al grabado por lo demás es un magnífico ejemplar con muy amplios márgenes.

1767119925London: John Nourse and Desaint Paris 1767. Praised by Adam Smith - the second of Schumpeter's physiocrat textbooks First edition by "the ablest expositor of this i.e. Physiocratic system" McCulloch written following Le Mercier's retirement from Parliament in 1759. Praised by Adam Smith and Diderot amongst others L'Ordre naturel was according to Palgrave considered more highly than De l'Esprit des loix by some of Le Mercier's contemporaries. The author argues that there is a natural law of property which is based on the physical order of nature and which underlies all other laws. Taxation and the use of public revenue by the ruler are both governed by the natural law of property. Schumpeter lists this work as the second textbook of Physiocrat orthodoxy the first being Mirabeau's Philosophie rurale. Quarto 255 x 195 mm. Contemporary French mottled calf triple-rule border in blind to covers spine ruled and decorated gilt in compartments red morocco label marbled endpapers red edges green silk ribbon marker.

178059007but actually London: William Strahan 1780. Folio broadsheet 17½" x 11"; 3 horizontal folds the paper a bit dusty else very good. With its original separately printed title leaf folded into a wrap-around sleeve. In January 1776 Captain Bromedge wrote to Vice Admiral Schuldham regarding his boarding of the ship Boston Packet and his suspicion that they were carrying stores to the enemy. "I am informed by the crew of the Boston Packet that the Master declared repeatedly on the Passage that could he make Cape Codd he would go in there and land his cargo or could he make Cape Ann he did not fear meeting with some of his Friends to carry him into Beverly or Salem" see Naval Documents of the American Revolution Vol III p. 1005 for the full text of his letter. Regarding this and similar allegations Vice Admiral Graves issued the orders printed here specifically pertaining to the Boston Packet: "You are to seize and detain all Ships and Vessels belonging to the Inhabitants of the four New England Provinces and to send them to Boston." On the verso is printed Rear Admiral Schuldham's confirmation of Graves' order "the probability of these stores being smuggled away to the Enemy.makes me think it highly proper that they should be detained." In effect this is a Letter of Marque issued during the Revolutionary War but pertaining only to a particular class of merchant ships and to two vessels in particular one of which was the Boston Packet. Rare. OCLC shows only the John Carter Brown holding a copy. With manuscript additions dating the document September 1775 and addressing it to Captain Bromadge.

Housed together in a brown buckram slipcase. Front pastedown with morocco bookplate of Robert Hoe. Cross III 305; Rothschild 844; Tinker 1034. ◆Occasional mild browning or faint foxing but AN ESPECIALLY FINE SET clean and fresh internally in unworn bindings.<br/> <br/> This is a handsomely bound copy with superior provenance of the first appearance of a breakthrough work in the field of English literature. Fielding had a profound influence in determining the development of the novel and this was the first great instrument of that influence. Although some of the names of the characters are facetious the events personalities and settings are all characterized by convincing verisimilitude. The book was begun as a spoof of Richardson's sentimental "Pamela" but it ended up on its own as one of the best novels of the period. The beautiful bindings by the leading English workshop Riviere and the sparkling condition here are characteristic of books from the collection of our earlier owner Robert Hoe 1839-1911 founding member and first president of the Grolier Club. According to Beverly Chew Hoe's library was "the finest America has ever contained." Hoe acquired illuminated manuscripts early printing French and English literature and very fine bindings; when his library was sold in 1911-12 it fetched nearly $2 million a record that held until the Streeter sale more than 50 years later.

1722865Paris: Chez Cavelier 1722. Third edition. <br /> <br /> A classic 18th-century French medical manual devoted to uroscopy the long-standing diagnostic practice of interpreting urine to determine a patient’s health. Le Miroir des Urines “The Mirror of Urines†reflects the persistence of humoral medicine well into the Enlightenment offering a structured guide to identifying diseases through color consistency and other visible properties. Drawing on both ancient authorities and more recent physicians the work attempts to systematize bodily diagnosis through observable fluids linking urine characteristics to temperament internal imbalance and specific illnesses.<br /> <br /> This third edition revised and expanded by the author includes an organized index and detailed classifications of symptoms and conditions ranging from fevers and obstructions to more specific ailments. The text is printed in French and intended for both practitioners and educated lay readers illustrating how medical knowledge circulated beyond strictly academic circles. A contemporary or early ownership inscription “Chalonrat†or similar appears on the front endpaper along with an early shelf notation providing a tangible trace of the book’s historical use and circulation.<br /> <br /> Condition & Binding: Bound in contemporary full calf with an attractively gilt-decorated spine compartments elaborately tooled and lettered “Miroir des Urines.†Boards show general rubbing surface wear and some scuffing consistent with age but remain structurally sound.

170532355à Amsterdam: Chez Estienne Rogier 1705. Fine. Chez Estienne Rogier à Amsterdam 1705 8 x 15 cm relié Second edition rare after the first edition published in 1698 by Barbin. Contemporary full brown sheep binding. Decorated spine with raised bands. Head worn. Rubbing. Foxing. The work belongs to no defined genre; in a very free manner a Siamese tells anecdotes which he mixes with maxims on various subjects: The palace the court the public the Bois de Boulogne the opera. These satirical considerations of Parisian society pell-mell do not possess a continuous narrative; the work would pave the way for Montesquieu's Persian Letters. It is one of its principal sources.

Engraved frontispiece portrait of Burns. Gibson p. 6; Egerer 2. ◆Perhaps pressed not washed but AN ESPECIALLY FINE COPY quite clean and fresh internally IN A SPARKLING BINDING with no signs of use.<br/> <br/> This is one of the most famous poetic publications in history offered here in a most attractive copy of the first London printing following an Edinburgh edition the same year and the extremely rare Kilmarnock first edition of 1786. Burns issued the poems at the age of 27 in order to raise passage money for a voyage to Jamaica where he had been offered an agricultural post on a plantation. At a time when his contemporaries were searching for the "natural bard" and in the process had unearthed poetical threshers poetical milk maidens and poetical cobblers the charming plowman Burns delivered his simple and beautiful lyrics with most propitious timing. He found himself famous almost at once and his fame has not faltered over time even though after the appearance of the present work he did little during the rest of his life except write songs and drink. The very attractive binding is the work of one of the longest-lived English binderies. Robert Riviere began as a bookseller and binder in Bath in 1829 then set up shop as a binder in London in 1840; in 1881 he took his grandson Percival Calkin into partnership at which time the firm became known as Riviere & Son. The bindery continued to do business until 1939 when it was acquired by George Bayntun of Bath a firm that is still producing fine work and is still in family hands. Printed for A. Strahan; T.
