Very Good Turkish Original wrappers. 12mo. (16 x 12 cm). In Turkish. 16 p. First and only edition of this extremely rare pamphlet written by Turkish Islamist-Nationalist journalist Eygi, who criticizes the understanding of Islam in the 1960s, through the symbol of the first fictional utopian land and vision in Turkish literature called "Darürrahat" [i.e. The Door of Peace] in Ismail Gaspirinskiy (1851-1914)'s book "Darürrahat Müslümanlari" [i.e. The Muslims of Darrürrahat] published in 1887, in Kazan. Mehmed Sevket Eygi was a Turkish journalist, writer, columnist, and Holocaust denier. He had Islamist-nationalist views. After graduating from university in 1956, he worked as a translator at the Directorate of Religious Affairs for two years. Eygi began publishing the daily Bugün newspaper and its publishing house in 1966, where this book will also be published as the third book of the publishing house. While making this criticism, he used the first utopia text of Turkish literature called "Darürrahat Muslims" by Gaspirinskiy as a symbol. Ismail Gaspirinskiy (or Gaspirali) was an ideologist, author, journalist, publisher, educator, and major. Gaspirali's work called Muslims of Darurrahat (Comfortable Country) was published in 1891 after the first issuance in Tercuman Newspaper as the continuation of Letters of Frengistan. Cannot be found in any data as well as OCLC. (Utopias from the Middle East 1).

In -8°, pp. 358, (2), pergamena con ornamenti ai piatti. L’autore è padre Martino Natali (Bussana 1730-Pavia 1791), professore di dogmatica all’università di Pavia e prolifico autore dottrinario; secondo il dizionario biografico degli Italiani “con la sua chiamata, la facoltà teologica pavese si avviò a divenire uno dei poli dell’antigesuitismo italiano e delle politiche regalistiche degli Asburgo [...]. Nei molti opuscoli polemici che pubblicò – generalmente anonimi, sotto pseudonimo o con il nome di suoi allievi, talora di attribuzione incerta – ricorrono alcuni temi dominanti: la restrizione del campo dei dogmi alle verità attestate dalle scritture e dalla tradizione e avvallate dal comune insegnamento della Chiesa, la limitazione del primato pontificio, l’adesione rigorosa al dettato di s. Agostino in tema di grazia, predestinazione, peccato e una visione radicalmente negativa della condizione umana post lapsu, espressa in particolare nell’affermazione della condanna alle pene dell’inferno per i bambini morti avanti il battesimo”. Quest’opera va da intendersi come aspramente critica nei confronti del lavoro di Pierre Collet, teologo francese che aveva pubblicato pochi anni prima una Teologia morale in undici volumi, qui messa in discussione dal Natali, con argomentazioni che spaziano dalla religione, all’esorcismo, alla magia. The author is father Martino Natali (1730-1791), a dogmatics teacher at Pavia university and a productive doctrinaire writer. This work has to be meant in a strong opposition to the work of Pierre Collet, a french theologist who, a few years before, published a moral theology book in 11 volumes, here criticized by Natali: subjects branch off to religion, exorcism, magic.
In-16° (168x105mm), pp. (6), 106, 16, (1), legatura p. pergamena coeva. Bella antiporta allegorica incisa in rame con titolo entro cornice bodata da putti, festoni, figure fantastiche. Fregio tipografico al titolo. Testatine, iniziali e cul-de-lampe ornati su rame. Quattro tavole allegoriche incise in rame "en taille douce" f.t. ad illustrazione del testo poetico. Antiche annotazioni manoscritte ai contropiatti. Alcuni aloni marginali. Riedizione secentesca, dedicata dal Loyson al Delfino di Francia, di questa raccolta collettiva di quartine del secondo Cinquecento, ancora molte volte stampata nei secoli successivi col titolo "La Belle vieillesse, ou les anciens quatrains...sur la mort et sur la conduite des choses humaines" con il commento dell'abate di Saint-Melaine de Rennes e predicatore regio Jean Baptiste Louis de La Roche (? - Parigi, 1780), fecondo anche se modesto scrittore di materia letteraria (voce "Roche" di W. S. in Michaud, "Biogr. universelle", XXXVIII. 290-291). Questa impressione è accresciuta delle quartine di Faure e di Mathieu, concepite con intenti didascalico-moraleggianti analoghi a quelle del Pibrac. L'opera consiste in un inanellarsi di riflessioni di ordine filosofico o sapienziale sulla vita, la morte e la vanità del mondo esposte in quartine poetiche. Seguono "Les Quatrains de la Vanité du Monde", le "Tablettes ou Quatrains de la Vie et de la Mort", "Les Plaisirs de la vie rustique" e un'ode sullo stesso argomento di Philippe Des Portes. Cinquanta dei "Quatrains" del Pibrac erano stati editi nel 1574, seguiti da altri cinquanta nel '75, mentre la prima edizione della raccolta definitiva, di 126 componimenti, è del 1576. I "Plaisirs de la vie rustique" apparvero primamente attorno al 1573 dedicati a Ronsard - forse a Parigi, presso Mamert Patisson - e furono ristampati a Lione l'anno seguente e di nuovo a Parigi, da Frédéric Morel, nel 1576. Essi sono strettamente connessi con la Court de Nèrac, ove Pibrac fu per 17 mesi Cancelliere di Margherita di Navarra, e costituiscono uno sferzante attacco indiretto alla vita di corte attraverso la narrazione della vita di una coppia di campagna e l'ospitalità da loro data ad alcuni amici. All'interno di questa cornice, l'attacco di Pibrac si dispiega enumerando tutte le cattive pratiche ignorate dalla coppia e che, si arguisce, la corte pratica comunemente. Particolarmente riuscito il ritratto di Marion come semplice ragazza di campagna, cui automaticamente il lettore associa il comportamento opposto delle dame di corte (cfr. P. M. Smith, The Anti-courtier Trend in Sixteenth Century French Literature, Genève, 1966, pp. 161-62). Pibrac fu, ai suoi tempi, signore incontrastato del foro parigino, su cui a più riprese indugia Montaigne negli "Essais". Nato a Pibrac, in Guascogna, nel 1530 (e dunque coetaneo ed amico di Etienne Pasquier), morto a Parigi nel 1586, dopo una formazione umanistica, studiò giurisprudenza con maestri come Cujas, Alciati, Bunel, entrando in magistratura ventenne come Consigliere al Parlamente della propria città. Nel 1562 rappresentò Caterina de'Medici al Concilio di Trento; avvocato generale del Parlamento di Parigi, seguì in Polonia il Duca d'Angiò, di cui era cancelliere. Sostenne in seguito la necessità della strage di san Bartolomeo, di cui compose un'apologia apparsa nel 1573. I "Quatrains" godettero di straordinaria fortuna sino a tutto il Seicento, conoscendo traduzioni in nuemrose lingue, tra cui persino il persiano, l'arabo e il turco, venendo imparati a memoria da generazioni di studenti per i loro contenuti moraleggianti.
