LAS à un prélat.
|
Pontoise, 8 juillet 1660. In-4, 4 pages. Il rend compte à "Son Eminence" : de l'assemblée des docteurs de la "maison de Sorbonne" qui est reconnaissante de ce que Son Eminence a bien voulu "accepter la charge de Proviseur de Sorbonne" ; que M. Gentil, Evêque de Laon, qui s'était déjà porté garant, renouvelle son respect et sa soumission ; que "notre assemblée est toujours fort tranquille et que tout le monde témoigne à l'envy vouloir faire de concert le service du Roy et celui de l'Eglise : Mais je suis obligé de dire à Votre Eminence que nous ne nous pressons pas assez de finir (…) J'espère que quand Votre Eminence an aura dit son sentiment, cela produira un très bon effet"… M. l'abbé de St Poüanges [Michel Colbert, son cousin] en témoignera ; qu'il a fait lire l'opinion de Son Eminence sur la contestation entre messeigneurs de la Vaur et de Pamiers et qu'il prie Son Eminence d 'avoir la bonté de lui pardonner cette faute. Frère de Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Nicolas Colbert (1628-1676) devint, en 1656, bibliothécaire du roi ; depuis un an abbé de Saint-Sauveur de Vertus, au diocèse de Châlons-sur-Marne, il fut nommé, évêque de Luçon en mars 1661, prieur de La Charité-sur-Loire en 1664, et enfin évêque d’Auxerre en 1672.

Merian, Matthaeus (1593-1650) And
Topographia Galliae; Dat Ist Een Algemeene En Naeukeurige Lant En Plaets-Beschrijvinghe Van Het Machtige Koninckrijk Vranckryck
|
. Amsterdam: Joost Broersz, Caspar Merian, 1660-1661-1662-1663. 4 volumes, small folio. (12 3/8 x 8 inches). Engraved titles and 325 plates and maps (some folding, some double-page) by Matthaeus Merian and others. Contemporary speckled calf, covers with the gilt-blocked armorial of Ralph Sneyd, expertly rebacked to style, spines with raised bands in 7 compartments richly tooled in gilt, red morocco lettering pieces in the second comparment. A fine Dutch-language edition of the most comprehensive illustrated guide to seventeenth century France. Merian (1593-1650), the father of engraver Matthäus the younger, and the grandfather of the painter, engraver and naturalist Maria Sibylla Merian, was born in Basel Switzerland. After a period when he visited and lived in Nancy (France), Paris and Stuttgart, and after working for Theodore de Bry for a while, he married in 1618 and settled in Frankfurt. From here he issued a great many engravings including various topographical series accompanied by text by Martin Zeiler, which together form an invaluable record of Europe during the first half of the sixteenth century. The present work, published in Amsterdam at the time of and shortly after Merian's death, is a Dutch-language version of Zeiler and Merian's Topographia Galliae, oder Beschreibung und Contrafaitung der vornehmbsten und bekantisten Oerter in...Frankreich. first published in Frankfurt between 1655 and 1661. The work, containing over 300 plates, is the most comprehensive illustrated guide to the cities and structures of seventeenth century France. The finely engraved pictures are of great importance, as they preserve many details of buildings, roadways, and cities that no longer exist or have been significantly altered. Cf Brunet V, 1530; cf. C. Schuchhard Die Zeiller-Merianschen Topographien bibliographisch beschrieben (Hamburg: 1960).

KIRCHER, Athanasius
Iter Extaticum Coeleste...hac secundâ editione Praelusionibus & Scholiis illustratum...a P. Gaspare Schotto...Accessit...Iter Exstaticum Terrestre, & Synopsis Mundi Subterranei
|
Added engraved title, finely engraved arms on verso of printed title, & 12 engraved plates. 12 p.l. (incl. added title), 689, [18] pp. Thick 4to, cont. sheep-backed speckled boards (minor foxing), spine richly gilt. Wurzburg: Heirs of J.A. & W.J. Endter, 1660.pSecond edition, enlarged and edited by the author's friend and disciple Gaspar Schott, of Kircher's only work devoted entirely to astronomy; the first edition was published in 1656 with the title Itinerarium exstaticum. "Itinerarium exstaticum is one of Kircher's most curious works. He wrote the treatise in the form of a narrative in which a certain Theodidactus -- Kircher himself -- is caught up in a dream-vision or an ecstatic journey and is guided through the heavens by a spirit named Cosmiel...In the first dialogue, Kircher recounts the journey to the moon, which he finds scarred with mountains and craters, contrary to the Aristotelian view. He flies on to Venus, which he discovers is made of the four elements, and so on to each of the other planets and through the region of the fixed stars. The sun itself has blemishes, Kircher proclaims. He himself had seen sunspots through a telescope several years earlier... "Kircher rejected the Aristotelian and Ptolemaic cosmologies in favor of that of Tycho Brahe (1546-1601), who argued that the sun orbits the earth and is in turn orbited by the planets and the fixed stars. The Tychonian system was adopted by most of Kircher's fellow Jesuits, since it allowed them to maintain geocentric orthodoxy while espousing, at least in part, the new, more scientific heliocentricity advocated by the Copernicans. Kircher broaches this subject more directly in the second dialogue, where he deals with the creations of the earth, its position in the universe, its various characteristics and limitations, and finally, its eventual destruction. To support his views Kircher cites scriptural and scientific authorities in his conclusion. Among the latter are the astronomer Johannes Hevelius, the influential astronomer and meteorologist Gottfried Wendelin, Galileo, and other less-orthodox scientists of his day. This scientific, religious, and semi-mystical work testifies to Kircher's dubious poise at the juncture of two ages."-Merrill, Athanasius Kircher, pp. 26-27. Fine copy. Engraved armorial stamp of "Bibliotheca Raschkiana" on title. Merrill, Athanasius Kircher, 12.. First Edition. Hard cover.

[MUSÉE DU LOUVRE (PARIS). POUSSIN,
[Suite of Four Engravings: Les Quatres Saisons].
|
[c1660's]. Four copper engravings from Tome I of the Cabinet du Roi (Tableaux). Sheet sizes approx 67.5 x 94 cm each. Contents: Le Printemps. Plate mark: 47.5 x 62.5 cm, 1st state (W. 174). L'Esté. 48 x 62 cm, 1st state (W. 175). L'Automne. 47.5 x 62 cm, 1st state (W. 176). L'Hiver. 48 x 62 cm, 1st state (W. 177). Inscription varies. Text in French and Latin. Small blind embossed stamps in lower margin. Pencilled numbers in margin; paper somewhat dusty; very light spotting in gutter of Le Printemps and on top edge and gutter of L'Esté; small ink blot outside print mark on one plate; but images clean and sharp. Wildenstein, Georges: "Les Graveurs de Poussin au XVIIe Siècle", Paris 1957, 174-177. The remarkable collection of engravings known as the Cabinet du Roi originated with Louis XIV's minister Jean-Baptiste Colbert (1619-1683), who commissioned engravers to create designs for the King's tapestries and furniture. Colbert set up a workshop and repository called the Chalcographie du Louvre to employ engravers and printers, and to conserve the copperplates produced for the engravings. As early as 1662, engravings were made to record special celebrations given by the King at Versailles. They were well-received, and by an order in council in 1667, an enormous artistic endeavour was undertaken to record the King's collections of paintings, sculpture, and coins, as well plans for gardens and buildings, and the interior decoration of the royal residences. Beginning in 1670, these engravings were published in volumes and presented as gifts to visiting dignitaries. To offset the cost of production, Colbert offered restrikes of them for sale, and in 1727, the first complete set of the Cabinet du Roi engravings was published in 23 volumes. Nicolas Poussin was born and educated in Normandy, and at the age of 18 left for the art studios of Paris. Inspired by the Italian masters, he eventually went to Rome, where patrons such as Cardinal Francesco Barberini encouraged him to produce a range of canvases with classical and biblical themes. He returned to Paris under Louis XIII and painted large tableaux for the royal homes, patterns for Gobelins tapestries and many works for the Louvre. The lion's share of engravings made for the Tableaux volume of the Cabinet du Roi series were from Poussin's paintings, reproduced by prominent engravers Audran, Baudet, Pesne, Rousselet and Claudine Stella, among others. This set, in the 1st state, according to Wildenstein, is scarce.

Enchuysen, Jacob Hendricksz., 1660.. Sm.8vo. With woodcut vignette on title, title within woodcut borders. 127, (1) pp.. Enkhuizen imprint of a very rare popular Dutch schoolbook, which although announced as a grammar is foremost an A B Book, and a reading- and spelling-exercise book, supported by explanations of Dutch grammar. The motto, a typical A B motto, on title reads: "Een Kind dat letters leert, verkeert, of dat versma'lijk, 'T wel-spellen over-slaat: leest all' sijn leven qualijk" (A child learning his letters wrongly or omitting the right spelling, will all his life have trouble with reading). The book is printed in Gothic as well as in Roman lettertypes. Dafforne who for some time resided in London, called himself a Dutch and English language teacher, and his present Dutch A B book was a.o. used for the English-Dutch grammars by Hexham and Beyer. Good copy of a very rare A B book.- (Frontwrapper missing; old ink stains on title; sl. dog-eared). Cat. Van Rijn 220 (first Amsterdam ed. of 1627); Carter-Vervliet 364 (idem); Loonen p. 328 (idem); cf. Bibelebontse Berg p. 115; not in NUC.

REYNOLDS, Edward & others]
A seasonable exhortation of sundry ministers in London to the people of their respective congregations.

London, printed by E.M. for Samuel Gellibrand a the golden Ball in Pauls Church-yard; and Robert Gibbs at the golden Ball in Chancery Lane. 1660 - 4to., title printed within a typographical border, (4) + 24pp., minor soiling a staining in several leaves, but a good copy preserved in modern wrappers with printed title label on upper cover. First edition. Wing R.1276. After the death of Oliver Cromwell (Sept. 1658), Reynolds was recognised as the leader of the moderate presbyterian divines or 'reconcilers'. He and other presbyterians sought an accommodation with Richard Cromwell, and in October 1658, on the behalf of himself and other London presbyterian ministers, delivered an oral address to the new Protector. He preached at the opening session of Parliament in 1659, and throughout 1659 and 1660 his sermons to Parliament and London notables became increasingly pointed about the need for peace, unity, and moderation, codes for the restoration of the monarchy and accommodation with episcopalians. He was the prime mover behind A seasonable exhortation in January 1660, which condemned sectaries and urged an understanding with Anglicans. Throughout the summer and autumn of 1660 Reynolds continued to push for a moderate episcopacy acceptable to presbyterians and Anglicans, and he helped to draft the King's Worcester House declaration that October. He was about then made Bishop of Norwich. [Ian Atherton in ODNB]. [Attributes: First Edition; Soft Cover]

He also made the valid observation that the mood of the obsessional is fundamentally sad even though he does not appear so, because an obsessive-compulsive neurosis is a means of warding off expected or dreaded evil or punishment. In the account of William Oseney [quoted later], the illness began with overscrupulosity in religious matters, sometimes an early symptom of impending mental breakdown with which priests are more familiar than psychiatrists.

SALMASIUS, Claudius
Claudii Salmasii ad Johannem Miltonem Responsio, Opus Posthumum.

Londini, Typis Tho. Roycroft; Impensis Jo. Martin, Ja. Allestry, & Tho Dicas 1660. Kl.-8°. 2 nn. Bl., 304 S., 2 weiße Bl. Pgt. d. Zt. etw. angestaubt, Rücken braunfl. mit verblichenem handgeschr. Titel, Vorsatz mit Bibliotheksstempel. Insgesamt sauberes Exemplar mit nur wenigen winzigen Braunfleckchen. Brunet III, 1733. - Wohl erste in England gedruckte Ausgabe. Salmasius (Claude de Saumaise, 1588-1653), franz. Gelehrter u. vorzüglicher Kenner klass. u. orient. Sprachen, studierte in Paris u. Heidelberg. Als Univ.-Prof. in Leiden (seit 1632) entfaltete er eine ausgedehnte literarische Tätigkeit, bei der er wegen seiner Stellungnahmen zu theol. u. polit. Fragen in lebhafte Auseinanersetzugen mit andren Gelehrten geriet u. erhielt einen weitverzweigten Briefwechsel. Nach Ermordung Karls I. nahm er für das englische Königtum Stellung u. geriet dadurch in Schlagabtausch mit John Milton. In 1649 verfasste Salmasius auf Ansuchen d. exilierten Königs Karl II. von England zugunsten d. unter Cromwell hingerichteten Karl I. u. d. Monarchie die "Defensio Regia pro Carolo I". Dagegen rechtfertigte Milton in seiner Schrift "Pro populo Anglicano Defensio" die Revolution u. die Parlamentsrechte, worauf Salmasius mit "Responsio ad J. Miltonem" antwortete.

AN EXACT AND MOST IMPARTIAL ACCOMPT OF THE INDICTMENT, ARRAIGNMENT, TRIAL,AND JUDGMENT (ACCORDING TO LAW) OF TWENTY NINE REGICIDES, THE MURTHERERSOF HIS LATE SACRED MAJESTY OF MOST GLORIOUS MEMORY...
|
London: Printed for Andrew Crook...and Edward Powel, 1660. [2],287pp. [actually 297pp.]. Lacks pp. 149-152. Turn-of-the-century gray boards, paper spine label. Light wear to edges and joints. Bookplate on front pastedown. Minor old paper repairs to title page and last leaf. Generally very good internally, with very little tanning or foxing and no trimmed text. This important compilation of court records, etc., relating to the regicide of Charles I was published immediately following the presentation of the cases at the beginning of the Restoration. Aside from their obvious importance to English monarchical and legal history, the regicide trials have particular significance to New Haven history since three of the "murtherers" fled to New Haven following the restoration of Charles II, becoming namesakes of the three central avenues: John Dixwell, Edward Whalley, and William Goffe.

Collection of the militant Roman Catholic writings by the Jesuit priest Cornelius Hazart (1617-1688), born at Oudenaarde and a popular preacher at Antwerp. All the present pamphlets are polemical, devoted to defend and explain questions rejected by the Dutch Protestants, like the devotion of Saints, relics and pilgrimage to Saints, the interpretation of the Last Supper, etc. They were mainly intended for the Jesuit Mission into the Northern Dutch Republic. Special attention was given to the Southern Provinces, Dutch Brabant and Limburg, which were at the time more or less second-grade provinces within the Dutch Republic, and in these provinces Roman Catholicismwas still strong among the common people. Thus the polemics of the third and fourth work were addressed to Schuler, and Van Renesse, both ministers of the Protestant Church at Breda. Written in the vernacular and intended for the general public these pamphlets were rather popular. Good copy, with the bookplates of the Jesuit College at Culemborg, and of Jean Grand Jean Perrenod Comtesse.- (Ms. index on first free endpaper). Burger p. 89 ("Grondigh Bericht Renesse"); B.C.N.I. 11856 ("Collatie van Corn. Hazart"); Burgersdijk & Niermans, Bibl. Theol., 1900, nr. 6368 (idem); the other works not found recorded.

English Science: Bacon to Newton
|
Cambridge University Press. Seventeenth-century England witnessed an unprecedented flourishing of natural philosophy, inspired by Francis Bacon's call for a new science based on observation and experiment, to be carried out in collective research projects, whose findings would be communicated in clear language. This anthology documents the effect of Bacon's ideas in the remarkably fruitful period following 1660. It includes his sketch of a scientific research institute in the New Atlantis (1627), which inspired the founding of the Royal Society in 1662, as acknowledged by Thomas Sprat in its History, excerpted here. Bacon's plea for an appropriate language for science also affected the Royal Society, as Sprat records, and gave birth to a number of schemes for man-made artificial languages, represented here by John Wilkins's Essay Towards a Real Character and a Philosophical Language (1668). This reader gives full coverage to the dramatic understanding of nature achieved through experiments using newly developed scientific instruments: Robert Boyle's investigation of air pressure; Hooke and Henry Power's mastery of the microscope; and Isaac Newton's use of the prism to show that light is not homogeneous but composed of many different colours. The selections are accompanied by a general introduction, extensive notes, contemporary illustrations, a glossary of obsolete and technical terms and an updated bibliography. ISBN10: 0521316839.

HORTENSIUS, L.
Dutch edition of the famous description of the rebellion of the Mennonites Oproeren der wederdoperen; geschiet tot Amsterdam, Munster, en in Groeningerlandt.
|
Amsterdam, Samuel Imbrechts, 1660.. Contemporary vellum. With engraved illustration on title, and 16 full-page engraved plates in text, one repeated. 168, 11 (1) pp.. Dutch edition of the famous description of the rebellion of the Mennonites by Lambertus Hortensius from Montfoort (1500-1574), rector of the Latin school at Naarden. First edition with a separate part on the mennonites in Groningen, the northern part of the Low Countries Oproer in Groeningerlandt . First published in Latin, under the title Tumultum anabaptistarum liber unus , at Basel in 1548, the book presents, after a short survey of the origins of the Anabaptist movement, a detailed account of the events in Munster, written in a fluent and skillful style, without divisions into chapters. The result is a graphic and impressive description, which gave the book its great fame and longliving influence. The author had dedicated the book to the burgomasters and council of Amsterdam, praising them for their wisdom and vigorousness in mastering the Anabaptist attempt at a coup d'etat. The author compared their wisdom to the hesitancy and foolishness of the government of Munster. The plates vividly show the excentric behaviour of the Mennonites and their final defeat and execution. The one repeated plate must have been a cancel, but the replacement is not present here. The paintings after which the engravings were made were burned in 1652.signed I.M.P. Good copy.- (Few wormholes). Cf. Simoni H 186 (first Dutch ed. 1614); Knuttel, Ned. Bibliogr. Kerkgeschiedenis , p. 150-151; Mennonite Encyclopedia II, p. 816; Boekenoogen, p. 53 (not this ed.).

ARISTOTELES -
I. Commentarius in opera moralia Aristotelis. II. Commentarii in opera Ar(istote)lis physica. Umfangreiche, anonyme Handschrift in lateinischer Sprache, braune Tinte auf Papier, Blattgröße 22 x 16 cm, Schriftspiegel ca. 15 x 12 cm. Gleichmäßiges, sehr kompaktes und daher nicht ganz leicht zu lesendes Schriftbild einer versierten Schreiberhand. Undatiert, wohl zwischen 1660 und 1680 entstanden. Titelblatt mit, wohl späterem, Besitzvermerk A. M. D. G.
|
Teil I : (2) unbeschriebene Blätter, 342 Seiten (bis S. 101 mit Paginierung des Schreibers). Teil II : 438 Seiten (mit Seitenzählung von späterer Hand), Brauner Lederband der Zeit, Rücken auf fünf Bünden und mit reicher ornamentaler Goldprägung, sowie goldgeprägtem Titel, dreiseitiger Farbschnitt (Kapitale und Gelenke im unteren Drittel mit kleineren Fehlstellen, Rücken und 3 Ecken mit alten Reparaturen), gr. 8vo. Der erste Text der Handschrift besteht aus einer Einführung ('Quid sit philosophia moralis ac quis sit prima assertio' S. 4), sowie zwei Büchern : 'Liber primus de fine actionum humanorum' (S. 28 - 131) und 'Liber secundus de principiis naturalibus actionum humanorum (S. 132 - 257). Dem folgt ein ausführlicher Kommentar zu beiden Büchern (S. 259 - 342). Der zweite Text besteht aus Kommentaren zu den ersten fünf Büchern, beginnend mit einer achtseitigen allgemeinen Einführung in die Materie. Der Kommentar zum ersten Buch umfasst die Seiten 10 bis 106, zum zweiten Buch 107 - 214, zum dritten 215 - 318, zum vierten 319 - 381 und zum fünften Buch 381 bis 438. Die Einteilung der Handschrift und ihre Logik folgen eng der Systematik der aristotelischen Werke. Die Zusammenstellung von Aristoteles-Exzerpt und -Kommentar weist auf eine mögliche Entstehung der Handschrift im Zusammenhang mit einer Vorlesung hin. Inwieweit die Kommentare die immensen zeitgenössischen Entwicklungen und Umbrüche reflektieren, müßte ein eingehenderes Studium des Manuskriptes klären. Zustand: Seiten 237/38 von einer zweiten Hand geschrieben, im zweiten Teil stellenweise im Schriftspiegel gebräunt, einige Seiten mit etwas durchschlagender Tinte, vereinzelt Buchstaben mit Tintenfraßspuren, bzw. kleine Tintenwischer, insgesamt gut erhalten.

Howell, James
Lexicon Tetraglotton, an English-French-Italian-Spanish Dictionary? With Another Volume of the Choicest Proverbs?
|
printed by J.G. for Samuel Thomson, 1660-[59]. First edition, folio, engraved frontispiece after W. Faithorn, title printed in red and black, text primarily in triple column; entry words in English throughout; a pleasing copy in full contemporary calf, unrestored; gilt spine, red morocco label; with the half-title (also printed in red and black); some cracking of joints at the extremities, the whole a bit scuffed and rubbed, sections of the text significantly spotted, but generally a good, sound copy. In addition to the proverbs, the book contains prefatory poems on language, a 6-p. note "To the tru philologer, " and many separate sections at the back giving terminology in a number of specific jargons: i.e. anatomy, horsemanship, hunting and venery, military, nautical, architecture and "household stuff", among others. Howell (? 1594-1666) was an accomplished linguist and historiographer to Charles II (see DNB for a long description of his sometimes checkered career). Besides being one of the first Englishmen to earn a livelihood out of literature, he possessed a rare mastery of the modern languages, including his native Welsh. In addition to this polyglot, Howell issued a revised edition of Cotgrave's French-English Dictionary in 1650; A New English Grammar for Foreigners (1662); and a posthumously published French grammar (1673).

Attractively rebound in later 20th century calf-backed marbled boards with morocco spine label and raised spine bands. Lacks the last leaf of the table-of-contents at the rear, else an attractive copy in a pleasant modern binding. Uncommon. Translated into English in 1665 as The Art How to Know Men.

Both this and La Chambre's Les caracteres des passions (Amsterdam: 1658-63) are significant period contributions to psychology. Writing in an age when science and pseudoscience still weren't separate, La Chambre wrote works on the passions, chiromancy, light and rainbows, and animal rationality. La Chambre was physician to Chancellor Seguier, as well as to Louis XIII & Louis XIV. He was one of the early members of the French Academy in 1635, and later in 1666 one of the first members of the Academy of Sciences. He had been a protoge of Cardinal Richelieu, who approved the fact that as early as 1634 he chose to publish in French rather than Latin. .

Stahl, Georg Ernst: =
Portrait, Brustbild nach vorn, den Mantel in üppiger Drapperie über die Schulter gelegt, mit Perücke. Kupferstich, ca. 1720, 155 x 98 mm.
|
. Georg Ernst Stahl, "der dritte in dem berühmten Dreigestirn der grossen Systematiker des 18. Jahrhundert neben BOEEHAAVE und HOFFMANN und der bekannte Rival des Letzteren, war 21. Oct. 1660 zu Ansbach geb., studirte gleichzeitig mit HOFFMANN in Jena, besonders unter WEDEL und promovirte 1684. Er habilitirte sich daselbst und erwarb sich bald einen solchen Ruf, dass er 1687 zum Hofmedicus des Herzogs von Weimar ernannt wurde. Auf Veranlassung HOFFMANN'S wurde er 1694 an die neu gegründete Universität zu Halle als zweiter Prof. der Med. berufen. Er folgte diesem Rufe und beide waren dort lange Zeit die einzigen Docenten der Medicin, die sich die Vorlesungen in der Weise theilten, dass STAHL über Botanik, Physiologie, Pathologie, Diätetik, Arzneimittellehre und med. Institutionen (Encyclopädie) las, während alle übrigen Vorlesungen HOFFMANN übernahm. Nach 22jähr. Thätigkeit und wenige Jahre, nachdem Letzterer aus Berlin von seinem vorübergehenden Aufenthalte wieder nach Halle zurückgekehrt war, im Jahre 1716, ging STAHL als Leibarzt des Königs von Preussen nach Berlin und wirkte hier bis zu seinem 14. Mai 1734 erfolgten Tode. STAHL war in Folge der streng religiösen Erziehung, die er in seiner Jugend erhalten hatte, ein orthodoxer, in sich gekehrter Mann, ein "homo acris et metaphysicus", wie sich HALLER ausdrückt, und konnte keinen Widerspruch vertragen. Namentlich aber bereiteten ihm die Erfolge seines Rivalen HOFFMANN grossen Verdruss. Er sah wohl ein, dass die grosse Masse seinen tiefen Ideen nicht folgen und ihnen keinen Beifall schenken konnte, wurde in Folge dessen intolerant, gegen seine Gegner bitter und verfolgte Alle, die nicht zu seiner Fahne schwuren. Im höchsten Grade in seinen Ausdrücken unklar, musste er der grossen Masse unverständlich bleiben und am allerwenigsten waren seine Schüler im Stande, auch nur entfernt in die Tiefe seiner Gedanken einzudringen. Es entwickelte sich daher auch sehr bald ein feindliches Verhältnies zwischen ihm und HOFFMANN , dem er durch seine Uebersiedlung nach Berlin aus dem Wege ging. So wenig man auch die von STAHL aufgestellte Theorie billigen kann, so muss man doch gestehen, dass er die bedeutendsten Einblicke in die pathologischen Verhältnisse gethan hat und dass zahlreiche seiner Ansichten durch die späteren Erfahrungen bestätigt worden sind. Er steht gleichfalls, wie HOFFMANN , auf einem physikalischen Standpunkte. Er sieht aber die Einheitlichkeit des Organismus in der Seele repräsentirt. Das Leben beruht ausschliesslich auf der normalen Zusammensetzung der einzelnen Theile des Körpers; die Anima schützt aber den Körper vor dem Zerfall. Der Tod erfolgt, weil mit der Trennung der Seele vom Körper das in diesem enthaltene Princip schwindet. STAHL bekämpfte jede naturwissenschaftliche Behandlung der Medizin; Anatomie und Physiologie erklärt er für überflüssigen Ballast der Medizin. Das von ihm aufgestellte Princip des "Animismus" verfolgt er nun bis in die äussersten Consequenzen und alle Vorgänge im gesunden und kranken Organismus werden von diesem aprioristischen Standpunkte aus in seinem Hauptwerk: "Theoria medica vera, physiologiam et pathologiam tamquam doctrinae medicae partes vere contemplativas e natura el artis veris fundamentis intaminata ratione et inconcussa experientia sistens" (Halle 1707, 8, 37 ; Leipz. ed. L. CHOULANT, 1831-33, 3 Bde.; deutsch von RUF mit Vorrede von C. SPRENGEL, Halle 1802 ; von K. W. IDELEB, Berlin 1831, 32) bearbeitet. Schon vor ihm hatten zahlreiche Forscher zu der animistischen Lehre ihre Zuflucht genommen, zu der Seele als princeps regulato aller Dinge (physis der alten Griechen, archeus im Mittelalter). Die STAHL'sche Anima" entspricht ungefähr der "physis" des HIPPOKKATES. Er schliesst sich in vielen Beziehungen an die VAN HELMONT'schen Lehren, zum Theil auch an SYDENHAM an. Die Basis der meisten Erkrankungen bildet die Plethora und das Mittel, dessen sich die Seele zur Ausgleichung der Plethora bedient, ist nach STAHL die Blutung. Diese Idee führte er nun in äusserst geschickter Weise aus. Im Kindesalter ist es vorzugsweise der Kopf, an dem sich diese Plethora manifestirt, im Jünglingsalter die Brust, im Mannesalter der Unterleib. Das letztere Verhältniss sei das allergünstigste, besonders wenn es der Seele gelingt, die dadurch gesetzte Spannung durch Blutflüsse per anum zu beseitigen. Daher schreibt sich die berühmte Lehre von der goldenen Ader, dargestellt in der Diss.: "De venae portae porta malorum hypochondriaco - splenitico - suffocativo - hysterico - haemorrhoidariorum" (Halle 1698; 1705, 22, 51). Das Fieber erklärt er für eine von der Seele unternommene Action, die darauf gerichtet ist, die vorhandenen Schädlichkeiten zu entfernen, also für eine Art von purificatorischer Thätigkeit. Es ist nach STAHL auch durchaus verkehrt, bei fieberhaften Krankheiten etwas gegen das Fieber zu thun. Er war daher Gegner der antifebrilen Mittel und selbst der Chinarinde beim Wechselfieber. Entzündung erklärt er als die Folge von Congestion und Blutstauung, durch welche das Blut viele krankhafte Veränderungen erfährt. STAHL ist der Erste, welcher bei Blutanhäufung den activen Zustand - Fluxion - und den passiven - Hyperämie (Stauung) - unterscheidet. In therapeutischer Beziehung sucht er vor allen Dingen die Ausleerungen zu fördern. Im Gegensatz zu den übrigen Aerzten, welche in der Therapie stets nach der Erfahrung und nicht nach ihren Theorien verfuhren, nimmt STAHL in der Praxis einen seinen theoretischen Anschauungen vollständig und consequent entsprechenden Standpunkt ein. Er ist ein entschiedener Gegner der Chinarinde, des Opiums, überhaupt der gewaltsamen Mittel, ferner der Alterantia. Ausser dem oben genannten Hauptwerk hat STAHL noch sehr viel geschrieben, im Ganzen etwa 240 Schriften, darunter zum grössten Theil kleinere Dissertationen und akademische Gelegenheitsschriften, deren genaues Verzeichniss sich in den meisten der unten angegebenen Quellen befindet. Nicht unerwähnt darf zum Schlüsse noch bleiben, dass STAHL auch in der Chemie eine bedeuteude Rolle gespielt hat. Er ist Verf. verschiedener chemischer Schriften und vor Allem der Autor der Theorie des "Phlogiston", dargestellt in "Zymotechnia fundamentalis seu fermentatiunis theoria generalis etc." (Halle 1697), welche bis auf LAVOISIEE allgemeine Geltung behielt. Auch entdeckte er viele Eigenschaften der Alkalien, Metalloxyde und Säuren. STAHL hatte nur eine kleine Zahl von Schülern und unter diesen auch nicht Einen, der etwas Hervorragendes in der Medizin geleistet hat. Alle waren sie meistens Metaphysiker, fromme, gottesfürchtige Leute von ausserordentlich geringem Verstande. Von mittelbar nachhaltigem Einfluss war die STAHL'sche Lehre auf die Schule von Montpellier, welche diese mit der alten des HIKPOKRATES in Beziehung brachte und so die später auftretende vitalistische Theorie vorbereitete."

Utrecht, Dirck van Ackerdijck en Gijsbert van Zijll 1660-61. 4to. 2 delen in 1. [VIII],520,[32]; [VIII],680,[40]p. Contemp. perkament. Mooi ex. Eerste druk van beide werken. Handboeken voor advocaten resp. notarissen, vele keren herdrukt, meestal tezamen, voor het laatst in 1749. Van Wassenaer was advocaat bij het Hof van Utrecht en notaris aldaar. Een door Dekkers en Pitlo genoemde druk van het notariele deel uit 1650 lijkt onwaarschijnlijk: de opdracht (aan de deken en het kapittel van de St Pieter) is gedateerd 1661, en geen ex. van die datum in NCC. *Dekkers p.186, 2 & 3. Pitlo p.56-61. (#35195)

May, Robert
The Accomplisht / Accomplished Cook Or the Art and Mystery of Cookery [ London: Printed for Obadiah Blagrave, 1685, Restoration Cookery ]
|
Obadiah Blagrave 1665 / 1685 / Facsimile Bound Reprint Edition. C: Cookbook, Recipes, Kitchen. Facsimile Bound Reprint Edition. 509 pages. Paperback: soft cover edition in good or better condition, some slight wear to edges, as normal for age of book. Overall good copy of this title. Excellent read. A good book to enjoy and keep on hand. Or would make a great gift for the fan / reader in your life. Editorial Book Description: This is a facsimile edition of the masterpiece of Restoration cookery by Robert May, first published in 1660-but this is a reproduction of the last revision made in the author's lifetime. It was the most important cookery book of its time: straddling the period of the Civil War and Restoration, when English cookery was for the first time influenced by the high cooking of the French court and aristocracy. Robert May was a professional cook (most recipe books of the period were from the pens of amateurs, or women, or reproduced household collections). He had trained in Paris. He had worked for a succession of noble families, mostly (like him) of the Catholic faith. As well as a matchless collection of recipes, the original book also contained a memoir of the author. There is a modern introduction which offers new facts about May's life and work; and there is a useful glossary of words, terms and materials. This book was described by Elizabeth David as 'a most beautiful piece of cookery literature'. The modern writer Frances Bissell repeatedly claims that it is her 'favourite cookery book of all time'. John Lanchester wrote of the original hardback edition (published in 1994) that it was 'the oddball food book of the year'.
