pp. xv, 424. Double column in parallel Italian and English. Old damp stain. 8vo. 215 mm. Original full leather binding; boards detached; spine worn. Almost disbound. Manuscript presentation on the front fly-leaf "For Charles Greville Esq. / From the Author." The recipient is probably the father of the famous political diarist, Charles Cavendish Fulke Greville (1794-1865). Also with the small printed bookplate of DeWitt Miller, Cross River, Westchester County, NY. DeWitt Miller (born in 1857) was a very famous book collector and public lecturer. This edition is almost identical to Baretti's 'Easy Phraseology for the use of Young Ladies'. The main difference is that it was issued without the Preface written by Baretti's intimate friend, Samuel Johnson. Baretti (1719-1789) was a remarkable character, whose tale cannot be told in this space - except to say that he was a warmly embraced member of Johnson's circle.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original cloth bdg. with marbled boards and brown cloth spine. Fading on spine and foxing on boards and pages. Overall a good copy. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 118 p. Lithographed. Early edition of this rare poem collection by Leyla Hanim (?-1847), who was a few female poets in the Ottoman literature, known for her lyrical love poems. Divan literature is described as "a certain tradition literature with its rules and boundaries" in the most general form. These rules and boundaries have enabled the formation of common expressions in religion and in Sufi intellection in particular and in poetry by the influence of Persian literature, and they have made it traditional in time. In this context, in classical Turkish poetry, whose male poets are predominant in quality and quantity, patriarchal rhetoric presents an outlook that its frame has been established by common tropes, metaphors, poetic themes, and in short by similar imaginations and ideas. The divans of Lady Mihri (died after 1512), Lady Leyla (died in 1848), and Lady Seref (1809-1861) have different aesthetic understandings in that context. Leylâ Hanim was one of the few Turkish female poets who made a collection of her poems. Lived in Istanbul and died in 1848. Her family was close to the Ottoman Sultanate and Leylâ Hanim, witnessing the reign of Sultan Mahmud II (1808-1839) and Sultan Abdülmecid I (1839-1861). She is the daughter of Moralizâde Hâmid Efendi. Her mother Hadîce Hanim is the sister of Keçecizâde Izzet Molla, a notable bureaucrat, and poet of the times. She has three brothers, Atâullah Mehmed Efendi, Nurullah Mehmed Efendi and Hâlid Efendi, who died at a young age. She had financial problems after her father's death and she expressed those in her poems. Some of her poems in the divan mention that her father and brother Hâlid Efendi have lived in Bursa for a while. She is educated by Keçecizâde Izzet Molla, she is quick-witted. She experienced a short marriage, which lasted about a week; after the divorce, she devoted herself to poetry. Her grave is in Galata Mevlevîhanesi. Several books include information of her life, characteristics, and poetry such as Fatin Tezkiresi (363), Ahmet Rif'at's Lugat-i Târîhiyye ve Cogrâfiyye (154), Tuhfe-i Nâ'ilî (895), Sicill-i Osmânî (93), Bursali Mehmet Tahir's Osmanli Müellifleri (406), et alli. These resources indicate that Leylâ Hanim is from a noble family and the links of the family to the high cadres of Ottoman bureaucracy and their intellectual property have left traces in her poetry.

In-8, demi-maroquin rouge à la Bradel, dos lisse orné de filet doré et d'un fer au bonnet phrygien répété en tête et pied, titre doré en long, 10 p. Edition originale. Député à la Convention, Fourcoy commente le célèbre projet d'éducation révolutionnaire de Lepeletier de Saint-Fargeau quelques mois après l'assassinat de celui-ci (janvier 93). S'il analyse et fait l'éloge de ce plan, il se montre réservé sur la question de la prise en charge intégrale des enfants et de leur éducation par la communauté nationale, jugeant le principe irréaliste, nocif pour les familles et trop coûteux en termes de budget. Fourcroy fut lui-même très actif dans l'organisation de l'instruction publique. Il a été l'un des principaux artisans de l'élaboration des lois générales et des institutions qui ont structuré l'enseignement public français. (Martin & Walter. II, 13708). Bon exemplaire, très bien relié.
In 8 grande, pp. XVII + 179 + (1b) con 4 ill. in xil. a piena pagina f.t. e 78 tavv. f.t. in fine. Sporadiche macchie d'umido. Br. rifatta. Rarissima versione italiana del manuale messo insieme a partire dai documenti lasciati del pedagogo tedesco Friedrich Froebel, l'ideatore del 'giardino d'infanzia', istituzione che si diffuse anche nel resto d'Europa, struttura in cui era possibile educare i bambini al disotto del sei anni. In Germania i giardini d'infanzia vennero chiusi perche' si riteneva fossero impostati su un'educazione atea e socialista, poi riaperti dopo il 1860. Froebel celebra l'importanza del gioco che consente al bambino di entrare in relazione con gli oggetti. La ricchissima documentazione iconografica in appendice al presente volume, infatti, presenta illustrazioni di costruzioni che il bambino puo' creare con sfere, cubi, cilindri di legno, prismi, anelli, bastoncini attraverso una molteplicita' di soluzioni e incastri che gli permettono di sviluppare fantasia e immaginazione. Il metodo di Froebel e' stato successivamente giudicato troppo freddo e geometrico. Rimane tuttavia alla base di molti giochi moderni per l'infanzia.

[Introduction à l'application de l'algèbre à la géométrie], rousseurs, nombreux graphiques, figures géométriques dans le texte et une planche dépliante. Deuxième édition augmentée. Selon Barbier et Quérard : "La dédicace au duc de Bourgogne est du sieur Boissière, bibliothécaire du Duc du Maine, qui se donne pour l'éditeur de cet ouvrage. On voit dans sa préface qu'il était écrit de la propre main du prince et qu'on peut dire qu'il est de sa composition; que cependant M. De Malezieu y a eu une grande part et aussi lui est-il communément attribué". L'ouvrage serait un bon résumé de la 'Géométrie de Port-Royal'. Bon exemplaire, bien relié à l'époque.

974 pages in two volumes. "The Kamloops and its proceedings are an important step in communicating the results of the recent, original and innovative work to managers, scientists, educators, naturalists, and the general public. There are many sobering signs of how desperate the situation has become: far more extensive and complicated endangered species lists; a growing number of ecosystems at risk; an increasing understanding of how fragile some ecosystems are; and accelerated rates of habitat loss and fragmentation. On the bright side, there is the tremendous energy that has in recent years been put forward toward public education, and documenting classifying, researching, and conserving species at risk. These papers are a valuable glimpse into that effort." - from Preface. Clean, tight and unmarked with light external wear. Nice copy. Book
