Quatrième volume de l'importante Histoire de la guerre des Pays-Bas, oeuvre du jésuite italien Famien Strada (1572–1649), historien de renom et professeur d'éloquence au Collège romain. Composée à l’origine en latin sous le titre De Bello Belgico, cette histoire de la révolte des Provinces-Unies contre la couronne d'Espagne couvre les principaux épisodes de la guerre de Quatre-Vingts Ans (1568-1648). La traduction française de ce tome, due au P. du Ryer - écrivain et traducteur prolifique du XVIIe siècle - se distingue par un style fluide et oratoire, typique de son époque. Du Ryer, célèbre pour avoir également traduit le Coran et divers auteurs antiques et modernes, propose ici une version élégante, parfois libre, mais fidèle à l'esprit du texte. Ce tome IV poursuit le récit avec une riche galerie de portraits de chefs militaires, des analyses politiques et un souci constant de la mise en scène historique. Bon état des planches et du texte, bon exemplaire.

1829List3693Philadelphia 1829. Folio 2 pp. Tear to title page some chips to margins with loss good condition overall. An early Philadelphia theatrical music imprint by I. T. Norton credited on the sheet as “I. T. Norton R.A.M. Composer & Director of the Music to the Chestnut St. Theatre.†Norton served as musical director at the Second Chestnut Street Theatre during the late 1820s a period when the house mounted a mixture of melodrama burletta opera excerpts and popular entertainments requiring resident musical supervision and arrangement. Theatre directors of music routinely composed incidental numbers glees and topical songs for stage performance and subsequent publication bridging the repertory of live performance and domestic music-making.<br /> <br /> Mister Punchinello! draws upon the well-known Punch and Judy puppet tradition. The text is lyrically straightforward built around the repeated refrain “Oh mamma I must be married to Mister Punchinello†suggesting a number intended for accessible vocal delivery rather than elaborate dramatic structure. The R.A.M. designation appended to Norton’s name—presented without elaboration on the imprint—appears as a professional credential typical of early nineteenth-century music publishing though he very well may have never attended the Royal Academy of Music.<br /> <br /> A representative survival from the intersection of Philadelphia theatre culture and early American sheet music production. OCLC locates about a dozen copies across multiple entries. unknown

001420London: Dean and Son. First edition presumed. Paper on boards. Fair. N.d. circa 1850s. Folio 13.5 by 10 inches. Not paginated 33 leaves including title page with printing on only one side per leaf. Wonderful hand-colored illustrations by unnamed artists but many with the qualiy of Tenniel. Some form part of a loose story narrative and others are part of a looser verse bond. Particularly appealing are the feline illustrations which come in several places most notably part of "The Cat Party". The leaves do not appear to have been bound in a proper order as this particular narrative moves in reverse. It is all somewhat chaotic yet charmingly so. Also a stand-out is the imagery of the "London Toy Warehouse". While some of the animal imagery is straightforward and pedestrian this is more than dominated by that which is humorous unexpected and inspired. The book was surely intended both to instruct and amuse and it is this twin objective that underlies its dual tone. The boards which are covered by illustrated paper pasted on are soiled and chewed up in the corners and the edges are rough. There are a fair number of closed tears inside near the front that were less than deftly repaired with tape some of which remains. Some soilage throughout. Still most of the imagery remains bright and appealing. <br/><br/> Dean and Son hardcover books
