Mercator, Gerard
Fionia
      Jodocus Hondius, 1636. Very good Map. Uncolored engraving. Image measures 14" x 15.75". Map of the Danish island of Fyn, as well as Langeland and Ærø. English text on back describes the area. From the "Gerardi Mercatoris Atlas sive Cosmographicae" (Mercator-Hondius Atlas). Plate was originally made by Mercator and later added to by Hondius. Some aging around margins and minor chipping to left edge and corners. Mercator (1512-1594) was an accomplished mathematician, cartographer, globe maker and engraver but is best known for the Mercator Projection. Incorporating the newly accepted fact that the world is round, Mercator was able to render longitude lines consistently straight on a chart. Although this requires some distortion, it was of great use for navigators, and is historically important, as it is still the most commonly used projection today.

Mitelli, Agostino
All'Ill. Sig. Francesco Maria Zambeccari Come a Suo Singolar. Mo Padrone Agostino Mitelli D.D.D.
      Bologna (Ag. o Parisini For, 1636. 24 unnumbered etched plates, loose as issued, printed on buff-colored paper (watermarked with a paschal lamb in a circle surmounted by the initial A). 250 x 170 mm. (ca. 9 7/8 x 6 5/8 inches). Sm. 4to. Portfolio (modern gilt boards, 1/4 red morocco). This untitled suite of exuberant, often fantastical, decorative cartouches and other ornaments is one of four sets of prints by Agostino Mitelli (1606-1660), the renowned Bolognese quadratura painter, father of Giuseppe Maria Mitelli. Dated 1636, dedicated to Count Zambeccari, and printed and/or published by Agostino Parisini, it is known in several editions or issues. In one, the title-page was reworked with the ?inscription Rousel exc. ?; in another, with the name of Giovan Batista Paganelli, D.D. and a new dedication to Francesco Bandini. In the present copy, as in the set in the Victoria and Albert, one plate was reworked as a title-page in honor of the marriage of the Duke Paolo Spinola to the Princes Anna Colonna, and bears the date Perugia 1653; the arms of the two families are engraved on the tilted cartouches at top. The title-page also carries the credit, in the architrave below the dedication, ?Gio. Jacomo Rossi formis Romae alla Pace, all insegna di Parigi. ? The watermark is not in Briquet. Intermittent foxing and occasional light soiling; one plate with a clean tear at one corner, with old mend; a few light touches in pencil; nice impressions.

GERARD, John
The Herball, or Generall Historie of Plantes.
      Adam Islip, Joice Norton, and Richard Whitakers, London, 1636. Thick folio, with more than 2500 woodcut illustrations of plants, as well as numerous other woodcut decorations; engraved title page mounted, with tiny losses at corners and inner margin, dedication leaf slightly soiled and stained, a few minor spots and stains, but an excellent copy in contemporary sprinkled calf, neatly repaired at joints and extremities, spine ornately gilt in wide compartments, red morocco label; armorial bookplate of "Walford" and 17th-century signature of Elizabeth Taylor of Wimbish Hall. A splendid copy of one of the most famous English herbals, here in the second printing of the best edition, Johnson's "very much enlarged and amended" version which first appeared in 1633.This massive herbal made the barber-surgeon and horticulturist Gerard (1545-1612) famous when it was first published in 1597, and it remained highly esteemed for more than 200 years. Gerard's work was based on his experience in his own substantial gardens and as superintendent of several others in and around London, including various properties owned by William Cecil, first Baron Burghley, whose gardens were famous for their variety of plants and trees. Despite claims that his work was derivative, "Gerard contributed greatly towards the advancement of the knowledge of plants in England, and in his Herball described and illustrated several hundreds of... native plants, including about 182 which were additional to those recorded in earlier works..." (Henrey).In 1632 the successors of Gerard's first publisher commissioned Thomas Johnson (d. 1644), the well-known apothecary and botanist, to prepare a second edition. He did this so well and added so much (a valuable comprehensive historical introduction as well as half again as many woodcuts) that Johnson's version is generally recognised as the "best edition". Johnson 'corrected many of Gerard's more gullible errors, and improved the accuracy of the illustrations by using Plantin's woodcuts...' (Hunt). Arber says that 'the Herball, thus transformed, reached a far higher level than Gerard's own edition'. In this revised form, the book was still being used in botany classes as late as the end of the 18th century. The thousands of charming woodcuts are both large and detailed, and represent an incredible body of work.Henrey, 156; Hunt, 230; Nissen , 698; Pritzel, 3282; STC, 11752.

Johannes Janssonius
ÆTHIOPIA INFERIOR, vel EXTERIOR. Partes magis Septentrionales, quæ bic desiderantur, vide in tabula Ætiopiæ Superioris.
      Johannes Janssonius, Amsterdam, after 1636 - This, Janssonius' first map of Southern Africa was first printed for his 1636 German edition of his Apendix Atlantis. Though it shows considerable knowledge of the coast of Africa it also shows how little was truly known of the interior. This copy was printed without the text or page number on the back of the map. Therefore it can be assumed that it was printed as a special order. Finely applied wash color. Slight spotting and discoloration of margin not encroaching on image. (Van der Krogt vol. I 8800:1,)

BÖHME, Jakob
Hooge ende diepe Gronden van't drievoudigh leven des Menschen] Het derde Boeck des Auterus Zynde Hooge ende diepe Gronden van't drievoudigh leven des Menschen. Door Iacob Böhmen, anders Teutonicus genaemt, beschreven anno 1620
      [Nicolaes van Ravesteyn] [ca 1636], [Amsterdam] - Contemporary vellum over boards (some soiling; minor cracking to front hinge but very sound) 4to . FIRST DUTCH EDITION of "Von dem dreifachen Leben des Menschen" dealing with the will and soul which is considered one of Jakob Böhme's major works (cf. New Schaff-Herzog, II, p. 210). The German edition first appeared in 1620. An important and rare edition of this work by the famous German mystic, Jakob Böhme (1575-1624), who lived as a master shoemaker while writing about his visions and spiritual revelations. Later in life he published a series of mystical works which had a great influence on later writers on free will, the human soul and division of mind and body. His influece on later English visionary writers is especially noteworthy. The present work, whose uniform Dutch title is "Hooge ende diepe Gronden van't drievoudigh leven des Menschen", was published without an imprint but Buddecke suggests that the work was printed in 1636 at Amsterdam by Nicolaes Ravesteyn. The OCLC locates only a copy at Yale and the present copy (Crozier-Colgate Library) in the United States and four additional copies in the Netherlands [8], 424 pp. With engraved title-page by S. Savery after P.v. Bon. Full-page woodcut diagram in text. Book plate of Crozer Theological Seminary (at Colgate: deaccessioned). Several gift inscriptions from the Wetherill family on front paste-down. Some light dampstains, minor handsoiling and foxing. § Buddecke 2, 17. [Attributes: First Edition; Hard Cover]

Ferdinand, Kardinalinfant.- Relacion de
Relacion de las fiestas que en tres, quatro, y cinco de Febrero deste ano mil y seiscientos y treinta y seis, hizieron a su Alteza del senor Infante Cardenal, los senores Carlos Duque de Lorena, y el Principe Tomas de Saboya, co(n) el Conde Picolomini, Maesse de Campo General del Cesar, en Bruselas, en gracia de las muchas vitorias que su Alteza tuvo el ano passado de mil y seiscientos y treinta y cinco.

Hamann, Die Habsburger, S. 115 f.- Ausserordentlich seltene Flugschrift mit Berichten über Siegesfeiern in Brüssel zur Zeit des Dreissigjährigen Krieges. Über KVK kein Exemplar nachweisbar. Kardinalinfant Ferdinand (geb. 1609 in Madrid, gest. 1641 in Brüssel), Generalgouverneur der südlichen Niederlande, zog an der Spitze seiner spanischen Armee von Mailand in die Niederlande, nachdem er 1634 bei Nördlingen die Schweden besiegt hatte. 1637 suchte er vergeblich das von dem Prinzen von Oranien belagerte Breda zu entsetzen, dagegen erfocht er am 22. Juni 1638 den glänzenden Sieg bei Kalloo über den Grafen Wilhelm von Nassau und erzwang die Aufhebung der Belagerung von Geldern. In den folgenden Feldzügen von 1639 und 1640 mußte sich Ferdiand auf die Defensive beschränken.- Fürst Octavio Piccolomini d'Aragona (geb. 1599 in Florenz, gest. 1656 in Wien) war im Dreißigjährigen Krieg wohl der berühmteste General Wallensteins und der Kommandeur seiner Leibgarde. Er trat 1616 in das kaiserlich-habsburgische Heer ein und kämpfte nach Ausbruch des Dreißigjährigen Krieges in Böhmen. 1625 kämpfte er in den Niederlanden. Im Kürassierregiment des Grafen Pappenheim brachte er es zum Obristleutnant, bis er 1627 zum Kommandanten der Leibgarde Wallensteins ernannt wurde. Bis zuletzt verstand er es, Wallenstein in dem Glauben an seine Zuverlässigkeit zu lassen, obwohl er sich rechtzeitig von ihm distanziert hatte und den Zuträger zum Wiener Hof spielte.- Nachfolgend ein kurzer Ausschnitt aus dem Bericht über die Festlichkeiten: ". dispuesto a encontrarse con la lanca, con la maca y con la espada, y assi se metieron en la placa todo genero de armas para el proposito, que embaracó su Alteza, quica sintiendo como su bisabuelo. por dexar los mas ruidoso para el ultimo dia el Duque de Lorena a cavallo, con los demas mantenedores de su quadrilla. Traían delante quinze trompetas, y unos timbales. luego por padrino el Duque de Abrè, vestido de negro y oro, y consecutivos a el Duque de Lorena, y el Conde de Santa Mur.".- Leicht gebräunt u. etw. braunfleckig.

      4to. Wrappers. With richly engraved emblematic title, the text calligraphed on the plate, and large woodcut coat-of-arms of Overijssel on separate title for the 'Kercken-ordre'. 120, 32 pp. Rare early edition of the Dutch 'Confession of Faith', established by the Synod of Dordrecht, here published together with the official Church-Order and Marriage-Order of the Province of Overijssel. The text was edited by E.V. Schuttenius, minister of the Church at Zwolle. The fine engraved title, not signed by the artist, is of special interest. With the coat-of-arms of Overijssel at the top, it has five religious emblematic medallions in centre, and shows the allegorical figures of love and religion at either side of the title. The 'Confession of Faith' had to be publicly recited by the young on being accepted in the Reformed Church, mostly at about the age of twelve years. Good copy. Van der Haar, Schatkamer, K 64.

Gerard Valk and Petrus Schenk
Nova Belgica Et Anglia Nova
      Amsterdam: , (1636) c. 1694. This is an influential map showing Dutch holdings between New England and Virginia. Of particular importance, is the inclusion of the place names of "N. Amsterdam" and "Manbattes" (Manhattan), and, after De Laet’s rare map of 1630, is among the earliest appearances of these names on a map, according to Burden (p. 313). The Great Lakes area is represented by "Grand Lac". Details from New France south to present day North Carolina are shown and place names such as Pleymouth, Briston (Boston), Fort Orange, and Jamestown are identified. The map is attractively decorated: animals (bears, beavers, etc.) are on the map with ships in the Ocean, two compass roses, and a very attractive title cartouche flanked by two Indians. Upon the death of Janssonius' heirs, Jansson van Waesberge, the copperplate that produced this map along with others were acquired at auction by Schenk and Valk. The Janssonius' imprint on bottom right was then changed to "Amstelodami Apud G. Valk et P. Schenk". A latitude and longitude grid was also added as well. There is no text on the verso on the map. This is a gorgeous example in especially thick, rich original color.

The scope, detail and organization of this four-volume set is truly remarkable. The editor provides the reader with a limitless supply of reference material for teaching purposes, research, or historical perspective. This encyclopedia is an all-encompassing reference to meet the needs of the diverse number of disciplines dealing with microorganisms, including public health and agricultural and industrial microbiology, to name a few. To this end, the text is a huge success as the editor has provided a balanced compendium of topics in which no discipline is short-changed. The organization of this book is a strong feature. . The list of contributors is a veritable who's who in the field of microbiology, truly reflecting a world-wide consortium of authors. The complexity and array of subject matter covered in this book is (in the current vernacular) awesome Once the secret is out, this text should find itself on the office shelves of all professional microbiologists and in the library of every academic microbiology department throughout the world. Wm. Michael Dunner, Jr.m PhD, Case Western University in CHOICE As was noted in ARBA 94, entry 1636, about the 1st edition of the Encyclopedia of Microbiology, there really is nothing else comparable in either coverage or currency on the market. Now with an updated 2nd edition, this scholarly source of information on microorganisms continues to stand as the major survey of the field for advanced undergraduate and graduate students. . The 2nd edition appears to meet the basic criteria of an excellent encyclopedia in design, organization, usability and accuracy of data.

CAMPANELLA, Tommaso
Atheismus triumphatus, seu contra antichristianismum &c. (cum Disputatione contra murmurantes . in bullas Sixti V et Urbani VIII adversus judiciarios .) - De gentilismo non retinendo. - De praedestinatione et reprobatione et auxiliis divinae gratiae Cento Thomisticus.
      - 3 parts in 1 vol. 4to. With engraved vignette on title. [12] leaves, 273 p.; [2] leaves, 63 p., [4] leaves, p. 65-344, [2] p. Contemporary vellum with flaps (small stain on front cover). Paris, Dubray, 1636. Eines der wichtigsten Werke Campanellas, in welchem seine Philosophie am klarsten zusammengefasst ist. Seine Idee einer natürlichen, dem menschlichen Geist inherenten Religion sieht er nicht im Gegensatz zu den empirischen Gesetzen der Natur, sondern hält fest, dass die christliche Wahrheit und die Gesetze der Natur grundsätzlich übereinstimmen. Atheismus triumphatus, ein Traktat der praktischen Theologie, verfasst in den Jahren 1606-1607, erschien erstmals stark zensuriert 1631 in Rom und dann im vorliegenden Druck zusammen mit der Erstausgabe von De gentilismo non retinendo bzw. De praedestinatione et reprobatione, zwei kleinere Traktate, in welchen er sich u. a. explizit gegen die aristotelische Überlieferung stellt und für die empirische Naturforschung eintritt. Erst durch diese Pariser Ausgabe, mit ausdrücklichem Privileg des Königs - dem das Werk auch gewidmet ist - und der Approbation der Sorbonne erfuhr der Atheismus triumphatus seine wirkliche Verbreitung und Campanellas Philosophie Beachtung in der Gelehrtenwelt. - Bibliographische Notizen und Exzerpte auf dem fliegenden Vorsatz. - Papierbedingt, durchgehend gleichmässig vergilbt. Ein sehr gut erhaltenes Exemplar. Firpo S. 101, Nr.10/2; Jöcher 3404; Volpi 259. First edition of this collective work with three tracts by Tommaso Campanella, best known for his utopian novel Città del Sole (1623). The first of the three works (Atheismus triumphatus) had been published heavily censored first at Rome in 1631. It is most important for Campanella's religious and philosophical beliefs. This second edition - although censored as well - attracted ibertines such as Gabriel Naudé and François de La Mothe le Vayer. Campanella was a disciple of the Greek sceptics, this school taught him that metaphysics is built on sand unless it rests on a theory of knowledge. In De gentilismo non retinendo Campanella criticizes a.o. Aristotle's philosophy of nature arguing that man has to discover nature by himself. His books were all placed on the Index after his death in 1639. - Ms. notes on first fly-leaf, first title lightly browned and dust-soiled, else a very good copy. - Contemporary vellum with flaps (small stain on front cover).

Ouvrage extrêmement rare composé à l'occasion de la découverte de plusieurs fontaines d'eau minérale dans la ville de Bagnols-sur-Cèze, près de Nîmes. Les consuls de la ville avaient convoqué les médecins afin de procéder à l'analyse minéralogique des eaux et des terres qu'elles traversaient. On fit venir également Frère Iean Germain "Chymiste et excellent distillateur qui a volontiers rendu ce témoignage de sa capacité au public". Au cours de ce rassemblement le chimiste procéda à "diverses opérations chymiques, coctions, exhalations, évaporations, collatures, expretions, distillations au bain marie, sable et cendres, triturations, du rocher et argiles, lessives, criblemens, coctures du marq, tostions, calcinationsä", qui permirent de savoir que les eaux traversaient "des mines de fer, de soulphre, vitriol et du nitre" et étaient chargées de leurs minéraux. On trouve également dans l'ouvrage une "Description des particularitez de la Ville de Baignolz" ainsi que les propriétés médicinales des eaux . Marge supérieure du titre renforcée anciennement, avec petite atteinte à une lettre. Malgré quelques rousseurs et défauts, c'est un joli exemplaire relié en veau blond au XVIIIs. Il a appartenu à Denis François Secousse (1691-1754), historien, avocat, censeur royal et membre de l'Académie des Inscriptions. Manque à la BN. Manque aux bibliothèques américaines.

L'avocat des pauvres. Qui fait voir l'obligation qu'ont les beneficiers de faire un bon usage des biens de l'eglise, et d'en assister les pauvres. A Paris, chez Antoine Dezallier, 1679

Blank first leaf is here missing, neat pencil note on back of titlepage Sandell & Smith 7/6/73, minor edge browning, bottom margin of Ff2 torn off with no loss of text, marginal ink stain to last 8 leaves. *Wither's translation of Nemisius' 4th century AD work on the Nature of Man. Here he explains the classical Greek view of nature, of philosopy, of mental processes & physiology. In an early passage on the circulation of blood he describes on pp409-10 the veins & arteries: "These.. accompany one another, and receive profit and assistance each from the other.. therefore it is not possible to finde either an artery altogether voide of a thin kinde of blood; or a veine without spirits", going on to the pumping of the heart and the opening and contracting of the arteries "it sucks and draws a thin kinde of blood, from the veines that are neare unto it." He tries to map mental faculties, feelings & sensory perception to parts of the ventricles of the human brain, the third being the region of man's intellect. An interesting fusion of Hellenistic thought & medical theory bent to integrate with Christian theology.

      [Nicolaes van Ravesteyn] [Amsterdam] [ca. 1636] Contemporary vellum over boards (some soiling; minor cracking to front hinge but very sound) 4to . FIRST DUTCH EDITION of "Von dem dreifachen Leben des Menschen" dealing with the will and soul which is considered one of Jakob Böhme's major works (cf. New Schaff-Herzog, II, p. 210). The German edition first appeared in 1620. An important and rare edition of this work by the famous German mystic, Jakob Böhme (1575-1624), who lived as a master shoemaker while writing about his visions and spiritual revelations. Later in life he published a series of mystical works which had a great influence on later writers on free will, the human soul and division of mind and body. His influece on later English visionary writers is especially noteworthy. The present work, whose uniform Dutch title is "Hooge ende diepe Gronden van't drievoudigh leven des Menschen", was published without an imprint but Buddecke suggests that the work was printed in 1636 at Amsterdam by Nicolaes Ravesteyn. The OCLC locates only a copy at Yale and the present copy (Crozier-Colgate Library) in the United States and four additional copies in the Netherlands [8], 424 pp. With engraved title-page by S.

Extremely rare set of typographical specimens from the printing office of the Congregation de propaganda fide COLLECTION of 12 exotic alphabets.
      Rome, Vatican, Congregation de Propaganda Fide, ca. 1636-40. - Oblong 8vo (110x170mm). Contemporary plain vellum. All pages within double woodcut border lines. 12 lvs. (Collation: A-C4). Extremely rare original and complete set, published without a title-page, of a collection of 12 very interesting type specimens, printed at the Printing Office of the Congregation de Propaganda Fide at the Vatican. The collection drew on earlier Roman publications of a similar vein: it reprised for example material from Angelo Rocca's Variarum linguarum alphabeta et inventores (Rome 1595), Giacomo Bonaventure Scozese's Virga aurea (Rome 1616), and Athenasius Kircher' Prodromus Copticus sive Aegyptiacus (1636). The famous Jesuit Athenasius Kircher devoted half of his eighth chapter of his Prodromus - ostensibly concerned with the usefulness of Coptic - to an enigmatic inscription that had been discovered by Thomaso Obicini at the foot of Mt. Horeb in the Sinai. Although it did not pertain to Coptic or anything Egyptian, Kircher announced that he would be remiss not to discuss it. Kircher described how he brought to bear his philological expertise by trying to match the inscription's characters with three oriental languages, Hebrew, Samaritan, and Syriac. According to Kircher the inscription was written in a form of ancient Chaldean. It concerns our nr. 8.In the collection are three alphabets of Adam, the first from the Vatican Library, the second by Giacomo Bonaventura Scozese, the third by Lorenzo Schrader; 4 Hebrew alphabets, the first 'detto soprasilvio', the second 'detto testo', the third designed by Garamond and the fourth Rabbinic by Garamond, the above mentioned script discovered by Tomaso da Novara at the foot of Mont Horeb, an analysis of the same by Athanasius Kircher, Samaritan and Estrangelo alphabets, and a Chaldean alphabet. Established in 1626 for the propaganda of the Catholic faith among the Eastern peoples, the 'Propaganda fide', has published many texts in exotic, oriental alphabets. This publication shows the different types the printing office could use:(1) Alfabeto del protoparente Adamo I. delineato nella libraria Vaticana.(2) Alfabeto II. di Adamo secondo che riferisce il P. Giacomo Bonavent. Scozese dell'Ordine di S. Francesco di Paolo nel suo alfabetario intitolato Virga Aurea.(3) Alfabeto III. di Adamo cavato dal libro di Lorenzo Schradero stampato in Helmstatt l'anno 1592.(4) Alfabeto Hebreo detto soprasilvio.(5) Alfabeto Hebreo detto testo.(6) Alfabeto Hebreo detto Garamone.(7) Alfabeto Hebreo Rabbinico detto Garamone.(8) Lettere cavata dal P. Tomaso da Navara che si trovano sculpite in una pietra piccola posta à piedi del monte Oreb, dove Dio N.S. diede la legge.(9) Analysi dell'antecedente carattere, conforme alla dispositione del P. Atanasio Kircher nel prodromo Copto, approvata da'molti.(10) Alfabeto Samaritano, detto testo.(11) Alfabeto estranghelo, overo Chaldeo antico, detto testo.(12) Alfabeto Chaldeo, overo Siro detto, di due righe di Silvio.
