This corpus is a 5th6th-century compilation of land-surveying and boundary-setting texts from the Roman Empire dating back to the 1st century with agrarian implications use of the cadastre and calculation of tax architectural and religious ones e.g. the layout of a temple. It contains the foundations of surveying the typology of lands the art of tracing boundaries and boundary-marking procedures measurements and plans.</p><p>The work is illustrated with about 150 woodcuts diagrams and schemata inspired by the famous Wolfenbüttel manuscript and our copy is indeed complete with leaf 134bis a printed cancel. It notably includes the figure of the gnomon p. 117 an astronomical instrument whose shadow visualises the movement of the Sun across the celestial vault very valuable for topographical recordings. Adrien Turnèbe is the architect of the edition assisted by Pierre Galland whose dedicatory epistle to Cardinal Charles de Lorraine opens the book. The editors relied on the manuscript they had discovered ten years earlier at the abbey of Saint-Bertin in Saint-Omer today preserved at Wolfenbüttel: Cod. Guelf. 105 Gud. lat.; see Lewis 1998 pp. 38-39 and M. Crawford 2016. After completing most of the edition Turnèbe was given through Gentien Hervetwho was in contact with Pascal Robin our annotator cf. belowa copy of an important Italian manuscript today in the Vatican Library Ms Pal. lat. 1564 then belonging to Angelo Colocci. Hervet likely obtained access to it in Italy through Jean Matal who notes in his copy of the Turnèbe edition regarding passages he transcribed from the Colocci ms.: "I had them copied for Jean du Tillet who showed them to the Parisians" Girard 1908 p. 238. Turnèbe decided to list the main textual contributions provided by Gentien Hervet at the end of the edition in a list of <em>variae lectiones</em> on pp. 247-256.</p><p><strong>Precious copy of the Angevin poet Pascal Robin Seigneur du Faux 1538-1593 an epigone of Ronsard who entered 130 fine scholarly notes in our copy.</strong><br />A follower and devotee of the poets of the Pléiade admirer of Ronsard he wrote numerous occasional pieces or liminary poems: notably for the <em>Oeuvres</em> of Remy Belleau in 1585; and especially for Ronsard's tomb volume: <em>Les funèbres regrets sur la mort de Pierre de Ronsard</em> Paris Linocier 1586 for which he wrote pp. 7-21 including an "Epitaph of Pierre de Ronsard Gentleman of Vendôme Prince of French Poets". In 1582 he announced the publication of an <em>Angiade</em>modelled on <em>La Franciade</em>which however was never completed. Two other poetic collections are attributed to him: <em>Les Sonnets d'Estrenes</em> and <em>Les Vendanges</em> 1572 the latter dedicated to the Duke of Anjou. He also supplied a liminary dizain for the French translation of Saint Augustine's <em>City of God</em> published in 1570 by Gentien Hervetclearly a close associate. Robin du Faux was also very closely connected with the bibliographer La Croix Du Maine and with legal-scholarly circles in Anjou cf. J. Pineaux M. Simonin and Barbier-Mueller.</p><p>Our poet took particular interest in ancient topography: which explainsalong with his closeness to Gentien Hervethis interest in this work on surveying. It is also known that Robin du Faux collaborated on Belleforest's <em>Cosmographie Universelle</em>. As M. Simonin reminds us Robin contributed "at the request of Nicolas Chesneau and Michel Sonnius to this enterprise which bears the name of Belleforest". See on the subject the long article by Jacques Pineaux: "Un admirateur angevin de Ronsard : Pascal Robin du Faux" in <em>La Poésie angevine du xvie siècle au début du xviie siècle</em> Angers Presses de l'Université 1982 pp. 50-59. One also finds in the <em>Cosmographie universelle</em> concerning the environs of Angers Robin du Faux's identification of the village of Reculée described as "a pleasure house near Angers" with Herculée. This is a point of ancient geography that Robin also mentions in one of his poems: "Du grand Hercule a bosquet d'Herculée / Que l'ignorance appelle Recullée" <em>Les Vendanges</em> Nantes Jacques Rousseau 1572.</p><p><strong>Topographical technical & scholarly notes</strong><br />Robin du Faux particularly sought to record systematically in the margins the readings of the Italian manuscript discovered by Gentien Hervet with whom he was in contact and took care to indicate the variants. The most striking variant concerns the beginning of Hyginus's <em>De limitis constituendis</em> p. 91 which elicits the following note with a cross-reference to the end of the work for the alternative beginning: "below fol. 256 another beginning for this book has been added from the Italian manuscript according to Hervet Infra fol. 256 aliud hujus libri initium est additum ex Herveti exemplari italico." Epigraphic considerations require that the examples of <em>tabulae</em> given by Hyginus be accurate: just as Pierre Pithou did in his copy BnF RES-F-891 Pascal Robin restores from the second manuscript the names "P. Tith. filio et Augerio Sullo" missing from the base text p. 132. Robin notes other variants of significant meaning: p. 220 in the short treatise <em>De Casae litterarum</em> concerning the question of the shape of the estate he observes that Turnèbe's text reads <em>rectagoni</em> "rectangle" whereas the Italian manuscript reads <em>tetragoni</em> "square". Several annotations testify to his knowledge of Roman historians: p. 168 regarding <em>scorosiones</em> heaps of rocks he recalls that these evoke Gallic oppida with a reference to Caesar. He is likely thinking of a passage in <em>The Gallic War</em>VI 17 where tumuli erected to Mercury by the Gauls are mentioned. His critical sense appears in a marginal note on Berossus where he shows that he knows it is a dubious source in fact a forgery produced by Annius of Viterbo at the end of the 15th century: "one is close to falsehood and almost to fable unless you trust the history of Berossus" <em>Propinquum tô muthô fabulosumque fere nisi Berosi historiam agnosces</em>. In Hyginus's treatise <em>On Boundaries</em> p. 145 Hyginus 25 CUF ed. vol. II p. 9 he pauses on a development concerning the "quaestorian lands" that is lands entrusted by the people to the authority of the quaestors. He adds a reference to Suetonius's <em>Life of Augustus</em> after writing in Greek the word <em>plinthides</em> a measure designating one hundred <em>jugera</em> of land. He is sometimes halted by questions of etymology etymon of <em>territorium</em> p. 71.</p><p>The second annotator who probably took possession of the book in the 17th century shows interest in technical matters. He adds complementary references: he advises p. 229 referring to Columella for the Gallic agrarian measure <em>arapennis</em> Columella 516 takes interest p. 171 in <em>botontines</em> mounds of earth serving as boundary-markers between plots and refers for additional information to a letter by Symmachus. He does not neglect more contextual developments and thus underlines a passage from Agennius Urbicus's treatise <em>On Land Disputes</em> concerning the increase in the number of Christian faithful in Italy p. 74.</p><p><strong>A precious work annotated by a poet contemporary with Ronsard</strong></p>

9284San Francisco: Arion Press 2022. Full Leather. Fine binding. Large quartos. 171 1; 27 pp. illus. Limited edition number 52 of 250 "Fine Press" copies 50 Deluxe copies were also issued. Both volumes finely bound by American design binder Robin Brandes. Phantasia in black straight-grained goatskin with crimson doublures and gray suede flyleaves; onlays of distressed mirror mylar composed with image transfers and exotic leathers. The Raven is inversely bound in crimson straight-grained goatskin with black doublures and gray suede flyleaves. Striking raven wing spans from fore-edge of the front board around the spine to midway on the rear board—"feathers" composed of textured fabric with a suede finish and distressed mirror mylar. Fine copies each in crimson cloth clamshell. Prospectus laid in. <br /> <br /> A remarkable production from the Arion Press presenting some of Poe's most recognizable tales and poems here illustrated by American artist Natalie Frank—color as well as black and white; both full page and in-text illustrations printed in offset lithography and overprinted by letterpress. Brandes's restrained bindings are perfectly suited to these books rendering visually the same experience one feels when reading Poe and navigating the uncertain terrain he creates—clear enough that one recognizes the landscape but subtly disquieting. The binder writes in her artist's statement: "In his short lifetime Edgar Allan Poe became the pre-eminent chronicler of the unquiet mind. A mixture of unusual materials and striking color palette were used to emanate an enigmatic yet dramatic presentation. The haunting cover portrait I created for Poe's Phantasia is a mosaic suggesting shapes of 2 ravens. Image transfers of Poe's eyes on distressed mirror mylar and onlays of exotic leathers evoke Poe's unquiet disturbed mind filled with illusions and wishing for the return of lost love. For the covers of The Raven I designed the raven wing feathers to be a bold presentation for one of the most translated poems in history." <br /> <br /> Brandes has been binding for nearly a decade and already has a notable resume having been exhibited at Arion Press The American Bookbinders Museum The Book Club of California Guild of Book Workers San Francisco Center for the Book and more. Brandes's binding of 2020 Vision was the First Place Winner of the Rocky Mountain Guild of Book Workers 2023 Traveling Exhibition. Arion Press unknown

These unique volumes containing manuscripts drawings cartoons and shadowbox combine elements of Rube Goldberg Joseph Cornell and dystopian “Steam Punk†were produced by a southern California gunsmith gun designer and arms enthusiast. His early manuscripts detail the armaments developed and invented by Hiram Maxim drawings of weighing scales in the Norco Hills CA under fire; 7.92 mm. German 43 machine gun; a series of machine guns and light machine guns he intended to be produced by a “Bwana Arms;†a series of proposed designed weapons for NATO including a Cal. 30 Zona 95-K machine gun with 900 rounds per minute rate of fire a Belcher BURP 9 mm machine gun a fanciful “Troop Lawn Mower Swath Cutter Zip 18-K 8000 rounds per minute and even a design for the Vampire Mk.IV light armored tank. His efforts also include multi-barreled crossbows pig guns and a 7 barrel muzzle loader first test fired by Ramsay at the Lake Mathews Area in August 1965. He also includes designs for a curious six-shot revolving cannon for black powder test-fired in March 1965; a design for a personal auto-gyro strapped to the back of the soldier; and an extensive illustrated manuscript of the Arabian .41 caliber revolving battery gun; as well as detailed notes and blueprints of what he termed an “Egyptian Revolving Battery Gun 10mm. Model 65-71;†as well as the “Hamm’s Beer Keg Can Rocket†fired in 1974. Ramsay has also included his correspondence with the National Rifle Association concerning which of his weapons could be classified as “machine guns†and that crank-operated gear-driven cam action weapons are classified as machine guns according to the California Penal Code. Some of these were just designs and renderings but others he appears to have actually constructed and test fired such as the .53 caliber Recoilless Pocket Artillery gun mounted in the trunk of a 1970 Mercury Cougar as reproduced in his shadowbox and numbered 1 of 1. Ramsay 1939-2016 was the adopted son of a Los Angeles steel worker a California native gunsmith and gun enthusiast attended Corona High School served in the US Army in German from 1960-1962 and appears to have experimented as cartoonist and gunsmith.

Anthony Gross was born in 1905 at Dulwich London the son of the Hungarian cartographer and founder of Geographia Ltd Alexander Gross 18801958 and suffragette Isabelle Crowley 18861938. His sister was the artist writer and publisher Phyllis Pearsall. He attended Shrewsbury House School and later Repton School until 1922 and from the following year studied at the Slade School of Fine Art under Henry Tonks. Later studies were at the Central School of Art and Crafts London the École des Beaux-Arts Paris and the Academia de San Fernando Madrid. In 1925 he studied within life classes and as an engraver at Académie Julian and Académie de la Grande Chaumière Paris. Following study Gross painted and produced intaglio prints in Spain painted in Brussels and in 1928 returned to work in Paris and other parts of France working entirely from life. While in France he developed a working relationship with Józef Hecht and Stanley William Hayter. During the early 1930s he exhibited in Paris galleries becoming a member of the La Jeune Gravure Contemporaine designed costumes and settings for ballet and worked with composer Tibor Harsányi. He co-directed the short film 'La Joie de vivre' with Hector Hoppin in 1934. Returning to Britain in 1934 Gross worked on animated films illustrated a 1929 edition of Jean Cocteau's Les Enfants Terribles and became an art director for London Films. In 1937 he returned to work in Paris. Gross had married Villeneuve fashion artist Marcelle Marguerite Florenty in 1930; their children were Mary b. 1935 and Jean-Pierre b. 1937. In 1940 he brought his family from France to England to live at Flamstead Hertfordshire. Through advocacy by Eric Kennington to the War Artists' Advisory Committee Gross was offered and accepted the role of an official war artist and produced etchings and oil and watercolour paintings of English coastal defences and troop training. In 1941 with a temporary commission of captain Gross was attached to the 9th Army and painted within the Egyptian Syrian Palestinian Kurdistan Lebanese and Mesopotamian theatres of war sometimes accompanied by other war artists Edward Ardizzone and Edward Bawden and later documenting the 8th Army's North African Campaign. From 1943 he transferred to India and Burma to witness the front line battle against the Japanese; these works were the subject of a one-man exhibition at the National Gallery when he returned to England. Later in 1944 and 1945 an exhibition of 51 of these drawings entitled India in Action toured Australia New Zealand and the United States. Gross accompanied the D-Day invasion of Northern France wading ashore near Arromanches at 2pm on D-Day. He sketched the beachhead landings and spent the night in a slit trench on the beach before moving inland the next day. Gross recorded the devastation of Bayeux and Caen and followed the Allied armies to Paris and then into Germany. He witnessed the meeting of American and Russian forces at the River Elbe on 25 April 1945. Gross was at the time one of the many war artists who painted a portrait of General Montgomery. Following the war Gross returned to working in London in Chelsea Greenwich and Blackheath while in the mid-1950s working partly in Le Boulvé. He produced lithographs for J. Lyons and Co. and illustrated editions of Wuthering Heights and The Forsyte Saga. In 1954 he designed the dust jacket for the first edition of Lord of the Flies. From 1948 to 1954 he was a life drawing tutor at the Central School of Arts and Crafts afterwards becoming Head of Printing at the Slade School of Fine Art. From 1948 to 1971 Gross's work was exhibited in London and New York in one-man shows and as part of The London Group. In 1965 he became the first president of the Printmakers Council. He became an honorary member of the Royal Society of Painter-Etchers and Engravers in 1979 the same year being elected as an Associate of the Royal Academy; becoming a Senior Academician in 1981 and receiving an CBE in 1982. In 1965-66 Gross was a Minneapolis School of Art visiting professor. Wikipedia hardcover

1858Paris: Obelisk Press 1935. Small 8vo pp. 118. Original red stiff paper wrappers lettered in black on front panel and spine. Light chipping to spine ends production-fault creasing to spine paper a little bumping to corners. A very good copy of a very fragile item. First edition. A tirade against the English public school system published when its author was still only twenty-one years old. Anderson's targets include Marlborough College here re-christened 'Knarlesborough' and L'Ecole de Commerce in Neuchâtel Switzerland. The Obelisk Press was an English-language Paris-based imprint run by a Mancunian expatriate called Jack Kahane. Kahane specialised in the publication of books which either had been banned in the USA or England or which were unable to find a publisher in their home countries for fear of prosecution. Four Schools shares the same cover design and typeface as Henry Miller's Aller Retour New York also published by Obelisk in late 1935. Anderson's book dull both in subject matter and execution may have been taken on by Kahane as a piece of paid-for vanity publishing printed at the same time as Miller's book to save money. The extreme scarcity of Four Schools suggests a tiny print run. A very good copy of one of the rarest of all Obelisk titles. Pearson A-36. Paris: Obelisk Press, 1935
