Paris, Jacques Vincent, 1732 En tout 10 volumes in-folio, veau blond, filets à froid d'encadrement,dos à nerfs ornés et dorés, pièces de titre et de tomaison de maroquin rouge et citron, coupes et bordures décorées, tranches dorées (reliures de l'époque). "Un titre-frontispice par Desmarets gravé par Duflos et un portrait hors texte de Moréri gravé par Duflos d'après De Troye. La fortune littéraire de ce dictionnaire est non seulement attestée par les vingt-et-une éditions publiées entre 1674 et 1759, mais aussi par le vif succès qu'il reçut durant deux siècles : Victor Hugo l'utilisa fréquemment pour les indications historiques qui figurent dans ses romans. Le dictionnaire de Moréri demeure encore utile aujourd'hui, comme le premier répertoire de notices biographiques, spécialement en ce qui concerne l'histoire et la pensée du XVIe siècle européen. Bel exemplaire en veau blond du temps. Petits défauts de reliure sans gravité. La séquence des 10 volumes est absolument uniforme.

Scritture che sono state secretamente distribuite dalla Corte di Roma. per avere il loro sentimento sulle controversie con quella di Torino, e Risposta alle medesime; unito con: Sommario per l'informazione istorica, e riflessioni generali
|
Torino Per Gio. Battista Valetta (post 1732) - Offriamo unitamente due opere, l'una a stampa e l'altra manoscritta, riguardanti i medesimi temi: privilegi delle Chiese degli Stati sabaudi all'alba del XVIII secolo; revisione dei Feudi in Piemonte; gli Editti del 1717; negoziati con la Santa Sede per riprendere un dialogo dopo la rottura del 1697, con Clemente XI, e altresì intraprendere accordi per le diocesi vacanti e i feudi ecclesiastici; l'acquisto sabaudo della Sardegna; il tutto nell'ambito del vasto piano di riforme civili (osteggiate dalla nobiltà) nonchè ecclesiastiche (osteggiate da Roma) di Vittorio Amedeo II. L'opera a stampa, che continuamente fa riferimento al "Sommario" che è l'espressione dell'altro versante ideologico, il manoscritto, è in folio (cm 21,3 x 32), reca il titolo di "Scritture che sono state secretamente distribuite dalla Corte di Roma agli eminentissimi signori cardinali, per avere il loro sentimento sulle controversie con quella di Torino e risposta alle medesime", è impressa non prima del 1732, come si desume dal testo; con legatura coeva con titoli e fregi in oro al dorso, cuffia inferiore mancante, pp XXXII, (2), 199, è in buone condizioni, bruniture, rade annotazioni coeve, ex libris ms coevo al front. Consta di varie parti, ognuna con proprio frontespizio: "Discorso legale distribuito dalla Corte di Roma sopra il progetto di accomodamento."; "Risposta al Discorso legale"; "Relazioni originali trasmesse. dai Vescovi del Piemonte"; "Risposta alle Relazioni originali trasmesse alla Santità di Clemente XII da' Vescovi del Piemonte". Il manoscritto, con alcune cc in 4° (cm 19 x 27) e altre in folio (cm 22 x 31), è legato in carta decorata coeva, con etichetta a stampa recante il titolo, consta, per le cc in 8°, di cc (6) in fascicolo staccato; cc (17), (1) bianca, (2), (2) bb, (15) inframmezzate da poche cc bb, poi placchetta a stampa cc (3) con titolo: "Indultum Nicolai V concessum Ludovico Duci Sabaudiae", in calce data 1727; (1) b, (26) inframmezzate da cc bb. In folio, in fondo al volume: cc (8), (2) bb. Le grafie sono di mani diverse, tutte perfettamente leggibili, vergate in nitida grafia. Manoscritto in buone condizioni, carta vergellata e filigranata, italiano e talvolta in latino entro stupenda copertina in carta coeva in rosso ed oro. Esaminiamo alcune di queste carte: bolle; corrispondenza tra legati papali e il Marchese d'Ormea, o il De Gubernatis; documenti anteriori, "sedente Pio V" in data 1566; il ms si apre con il "Progetto da presentarsi dal Sig. Card. Barberino a Nostro Signore": atto di sottomissione ed ossequio da parte di S. A. R. verso il pontefice, con la dichiarazione di "aver ordinate e fatte eseguire le revocazioni richieste", fatta salva la clausola di "preservare in avvenire il diritto dovuto a questa Corona". Nel successivo "Progetto di accomodamento pubblicato dal Conte de Gubernatis nel suo Manifesto dell'Anno 1711", il sovrano sabaudo indica alcune "espressioni" cautelative da inserire nelle Bolle pontificie dei Vescovati, quale l'essenziale "Stabitis prius intentione, et consensu Ducis Sabaudiæ". Il discorso si riferisce soprattutto all'Abbazia di Lucedio. Nel "Ragguaglio di quanto è succeduto sopra l'affare della Provista delle Chiese di Piemonte da che il medesimo affare è stato nelle mani di Mons. Albani", viene relazionato in merito alla "spedizione che fece il Sig. Duca di Savoja à Mons. Albani d'un suo Segretario di Stato chiamato Monsieur Cordero con lettera credenziale dello stesso Sig. Duca, e del Marchese del Borgo. presentate al medesimo in tempo che ritrovavasi in Castel Gandolfo": descrizione minuziosa degli "abboccamenti", delle proposte e promesse espresse dall'una e dall'altra parte, non ultima la speranza manifestata dal papa di avere il Savoia come "mediatore" nelle controversie con la Repubblica di Venezia. In una lettera-capolavoro di diplomatico cesello, con venature di veemente sdegno non estranea a precise accuse sotto il manto dei condizionali e delle formule dubitative, ventiquattro

GENSOLLEN (J. L.)
Franc-aleu de Provence.
|
- Aix, David, 1732. 1 volume in 4 relié en plein veau marbré, dos lisse orné, étiquette de titre en maroquin rouge. 295 pp. Très bel exemplaire. Ce livre est un véritable plaidoyer pour le maintien du franc-aleu "de nature" ou "sans-titre" en Provence. Le franc-aleu est un héritage qui ne relève d'aucun seigneur et qui est exempt de tous droits et devoirs féodaux. Ouvrage de circonstance puisque la jouissance du franc-aleu dans cette province a toujours été contestée par les souverains français et plus particulièrement en 1730. Il est divisé en 5 parties : 1) usage du franc-aleu depuis les Romains jusqu'en 1730 - 2) dissertation sur les droits seigneuriaux - 3) droits appliqués en Provence depuis les Romains jusqu'au rattachement de cette province au royaume de France sous Louis XI - 4) l'auteur prouve aux fermiers que les comtes de Provence ont toujours fait appliquer le franc-aleu - 5) édits & lettres patentes servant de preuve à l'ouvrage.

THE STATE OF PHYSICK, ANCIENT AND MODERN, BRIEFLY CONSIDER'D: WITH A PLAN FOR IMPROVEMENT OF IT.
|
London. John Nourse. 1732. - 192pp. 20.5 x 12 cm. 19th Century cloth spine with paper covered boards, a somewhat drab binding. The title is on a handwritten label on the spine. The pages are notably clean. The corner of page 77/78 has been clipped, but does not affect the text, and there is a handwritten pen inscription from a previous owner on the paste-down endpaper. This is a very good copy. This is a history of medicine citing different cultures and past eras of medical advancement reffered to as the ancients as well as views of contemporary modern medicine followed by suggestion of improvement. The book includes two fold-out charts written in Latin regarding diagnosis and treatment of symptoms. The author has been noted for a separate work in the 'Heirs of Hippocrates' medical bibliography, recognized for his translations of three of Hippocrates works into English. He was known as an author in the fields of physiology and medical history. He was also a physician to the Prince Wales, to whom the book is dedicated. [Attributes: Hard Cover]

R.'s Wörterbuch musste zunächst außerhalb Frankreichs erscheinen, da die 'Academie' von 1674 bis 1714 das königliche Privileg für die Veröffentlichung einsprachiger Wörterbücher besaß. Obwohl als reines Sprachwörterbuch konzipiert, enthält es einen nicht unbeträchtlichen Teil an Fachlexik (vgl. dazu: Hoffmann u.a, Fachsprachen. Ein internationales Handbuch zur Fachsprachenforschung. S.1685). Bei seinem Erscheinen soll das Werk wegen der darin enthaltenen Obszönitäten und gegen ungeliebte Zeitgenossen (namentlich Amelot de La Houssaye, Furetière und Varillas) gerichteten Beleidigungen, großes Aufsehen erregt haben. Die Legende, wonach das Wörterbuch zunächst in Frankreich verboten gewesen sein soll ist allerdings nicht belegbar. - Mit der vorangestellten 'Bibliotheque des Auteurs', einem alphabetisch nach Autoren geordneten, bio-bibliographischen Quellenlexikons.

Gabriel Deliège Sainte Menehould 1732 2 tomes en 1 volume in-12, (14 feuillets), 328 pages ; (1 feuillet), 280 pages. Plein veau du temps, dos sans nerf. (Coiffes frottées. Ors du dos ternis). Collation conforme à la véritable édition originale de cet ouvrage commandé par Bossuet à Jean Phelipeaux, dont il était le grand vicaire. Phelipeaux n'avait pas publié le manuscrit, terminé en 1701, craignant la saisie, et avait demandé par prudence à ses héritiers de ne pas le publier avant 20 ans. L'ouvrage ne fut donc publié qu'n 1732. En dépit de ces précautions, dès avril 1733 le livre fut poursuivi par lettre de cachet parce qu'il portait atteinte à la mémoire de Fénelon. Les exemplaires restant chez Deliège furent saisis, lacérés, et brûlés, les caractères de l'imprimerie confisqués et vendus à l'encan à Paris. L'imprimeur, son fils et un de leurs ouvriers furent mis au carcan en la place publique de Sainte Menehould le 16 décembre 1733. "La Relation, imprimée à Sainte Menehould devint ... l'objet de la plus singulière condamnation dont l'histoire des livres prohibés offre l'exemple." (Barbier, éd. 1824, n°16089).

Franois-Marie Arouet (16941778) better known by the pen name Voltaire, was a French Enlightenment writer, essayist, and philosopher known for his wit and his defence of civil liberties, including both freedom of religion and free trade. Voltaire was a prolific writer and produced works in almost every literary form including plays, poetry, novels, essays, historical and scientific works, more than 20,000 letters and more than 2,000 books and pamphlets. He was an outspoken supporter of social reform, despite strict censorship laws and harsh penalties for those who broke them. A satirical polemicist, he frequently made use of his works to criticise Catholic Church dogma and the French institutions of his day. Voltaire was one of several Enlightenment figures whose works and ideas influenced importa [Publisher: London - Printed for C. Davis and A. Lyon]

Imprimé cette Année (Rouen, Viret, 1732?). - Außerordentlich seltene Ausgabe der 99 (nicht 100) haarsträubenden Lügengeschichten, die an Münchhausen erinnern. Darin macht Le Picard sich lustig über den Aber- und Wunderglauben der Prodigien; die Erstausgabe von 1579 gilt als verschollen. Hinter dem Anagramm d'Alcripe, Sieur de Neri, verbarg sich Le Picard, sieur de rien, Zisterzensier Mönch in der Abtei Mortemer in Lyons-la-Forêt in der Normandie. Wie Rabelais schreibt er stilvoll und beginnt im Alltäglichen. "Die ironische Verbindung zwischen dem gereimten 'gesunden Menschenverstand' bzw. der 'Volksweisheit' und den erzählten Lügenmärchen überträgt deren Unglaubwürdigkeit auf die 'idées reçues' und zerstört die Vorstellung von Authentizität und Exemplarität" (Wetzel, Romanische Novelle, S. 69 f.). ?

Fascinating and rare account of the succesful siege of Oran in Algeria by Spain with many details of the participation of Arab cavalry and artillery against the Spanish. The Spanish lost a general and a colonel along with 1500 men were either killed or wounded. Oran was founded in 903 by Moorish Andalusian traders but was captured by the Spanish under Cardinal Cisneros in 1509. Spanish sovereignty lasted until 1708, when the city was conquered by the Ottomans. After the battle described here Spain recaptured the city in 1732. Oran's value as a trading post would later decreased to such an extent that King Charles IV would later sell city to the Turks in 1792.

Scritture che sono state secretamente distribuite dalla Corte di Roma... per avere il loro sentimento sulle controversie con quella di Torino, e Risposta alle medesime;...
|
Torino, Per Gio. Battista Valetta, (post 1732)Offriamo unitamente due opere, l'una a stampa e l'altra manoscritta, riguardanti i medesimi temi: privilegi delle Chiese degli Stati sabaudi all'alba del XVIII secolo; revisione dei Feudi in Piemonte; gli Editti del 1717; negoziati con la Santa Sede per riprendere un dialogo dopo la rottura del 1697, con Clemente XI, e altresì intraprendere accordi per le diocesi vacanti e i feudi ecclesiastici; l'acquisto sabaudo della Sardegna; il tutto nell'ambito del vasto piano di riforme civili (osteggiate dalla nobiltà) nonchè ecclesiastiche (osteggiate da Roma) di Vittorio Amedeo II. L'opera a stampa, che continuamente fa riferimento al "Sommario" che è l'espressione dell'altro versante ideologico, il manoscritto, è in folio (cm 21,3 x 32), reca il titolo di "Scritture che sono state secretamente distribuite dalla Corte di Roma agli eminentissimi signori cardinali, per avere il loro sentimento sulle controversie con quella di Torino e risposta alle medesime", è impressa non prima del 1732, come si desume dal testo; con legatura coeva con titoli e fregi in oro al dorso, cuffia inferiore mancante, pp XXXII, (2), 199, è in buone condizioni, bruniture, rade annotazioni coeve, ex libris ms coevo al front. Consta di varie parti, ognuna con proprio frontespizio: "Discorso legale distribuito dalla Corte di Roma sopra il progetto di accomodamento..."; "Risposta al Discorso legale"; "Relazioni originali trasmesse... dai Vescovi del Piemonte"; "Risposta alle Relazioni originali trasmesse alla Santità di Clemente XII da' Vescovi del Piemonte". Il manoscritto, con alcune cc in 4° (cm 19 x 27) e altre in folio (cm 22 x 31), è legato in carta decorata coeva, con etichetta a stampa recante il titolo, consta, per le cc in 8°, di cc (6) in fascicolo staccato; cc (17), (1) bianca, (2), (2) bb, (15) inframmezzate da poche cc bb, poi placchetta a stampa cc (3) con titolo: "Indultum Nicolai V concessum Ludovico Duci Sabaudiae", in calce data 1727; (1) b, (26) inframmezzate da cc bb. In folio, in fondo al volume: cc (8), (2) bb. Le grafie sono di mani diverse, tutte perfettamente leggibili, vergate in nitida grafia. Manoscritto in buone condizioni, carta vergellata e filigranata, italiano e talvolta in latino entro stupenda copertina in carta coeva in rosso ed oro. Esaminiamo alcune di queste carte: bolle; corrispondenza tra legati papali e il Marchese d'Ormea, o il De Gubernatis; documenti anteriori, "sedente Pio V" in data 1566; il ms si apre con il "Progetto da presentarsi dal Sig. Card. Barberino a Nostro Signore": atto di sottomissione ed ossequio da parte di S. A. R. verso il pontefice, con la dichiarazione di "aver ordinate e fatte eseguire le revocazioni richieste", fatta salva la clausola di "preservare in avvenire il diritto dovuto a questa Corona". Nel successivo "Progetto di accomodamento pubblicato dal Conte de Gubernatis nel suo Manifesto dell'Anno 1711", il sovrano sabaudo indica alcune "espressioni" cautelative da inserire nelle Bolle pontificie dei Vescovati, quale l'essenziale "Stabitis prius intentione, et consensu Ducis Sabaudiæ". Il discorso si riferisce soprattutto all'Abbazia di Lucedio. Nel "Ragguaglio di quanto è succeduto sopra l'affare della Provista delle Chiese di Piemonte da che il medesimo affare è stato nelle mani di Mons. Albani", viene relazionato in merito alla "spedizione che fece il Sig. Duca di Savoja à Mons. Albani d'un suo Segretario di Stato chiamato Monsieur Cordero con lettera credenziale dello stesso Sig. Duca, e del Marchese del Borgo... presentate al medesimo in tempo che ritrovavasi in Castel Gandolfo": descrizione minuziosa degli "abboccamenti", delle proposte e promesse espresse dall'una e dall'altra parte, non ultima la speranza manifestata dal papa di avere il Savoia come "mediatore" nelle controversie con la Repubblica di Venezia. In una lettera-capolavoro di diplomatico cesello, con venature di veemente sdegno non estranea a precise accuse sotto il manto dei condizionali e delle formule dubitative, ventiquattro cardinali sottoscrivono una vibrata protesta destinata al pontefice, ove lamentano di essere, loro "consiglieri nati del Sommo Pontefice", tenuti all'oscuro di "grazie" e "convenzioni" accordate a loro insaputa dal papa, e come se non bastasse "pregiudizievoli per la S. Sede", di cui apprendono dalle "pubbliche Gazette"; si dichiarano allarmati nel vedere Nostro Signore "così inclinata a fare grazie... di somma importanza senza il consiglio di altri, che di quelli che ne promuovono le istanze..."; viene ricordato al pontefice che i suoi predecessori hanno fatto esaminare al Sacro Collegio "anche affari di minore importanza", che non i "Trattati che il Mondo suppone essere stati fatti... col re di Sardegna"; e si sollecita una pronta indispensabile smentita. L'ultimo fascicolo, parzialmente identico nel testo a quello staccato, illustra su due colonne, in contesto fitto di riferimenti bibliografici, un "Confronto con gl'Autori eretici" e "Attentati contro la giurisdizione ecclesiastica", ove si parla di molinismo, Chiesa Gallicana, Lutero e Calvino, con citazione dell'"Abbadia di S. Benigno". Documentazione particolarmente preziosa, grazie al connubio, ben raro ad aversi, del molto diffuso testo stampa e fonti documentarie manoscritte, uniche, voci contrastanti sull'identico soggetto, che consentono una presa d'atto gobale degli eventi, esaminati nella coralità nonchè pluralità delle voci di protagonisti e testimoni di ogni fazione: come attesta questo pensiero sulla "Informazione Istorica" di cui siam venuti estrapolando alcune voci..

HISTORIE, DE-, van de deerlyke distructie ende ondergank der stad Jerusalem. Door den keyzer Verspasiaen, met veele en verscheidene geschiedenissen der Joden.
|
Wed. J. van Egmont,, Amst., 1732 - Van nieuws overzien, gecorrigeert en verbetert. 4to. Bound. With woodcut on title, and 7 woodcuts in text. (24) pp. Rare early chapbook edition of the account of the destruction of the city of Jerusalem, based on "De Bello Judaico" by Flavius Josephus. The version popular in the Northern Netherlands however, entirely differs from the version popular in the Southern Netherlands, at least after 1621 when the old version was forbidden in the Southern Netherlands. After 1621 the version in the Southern Netherlands was titled "De verderffenisse of destructie van Jerusalem" and edited by the famous Flemish historian Adriaen van Meerbeeck (1563-1627). In the Northern Netherlands the old version remained in use, still unexpurgated of wild anecdotes and curious legends, like Pilatus together with the Jews defending Jerusalem, and during the siege the starved women ate their children, and gave Pilatus a quarter of each child to eat. Or the story that after the Romans had conquered the city, Pilatus was brought to trial, but all the Jews were slaughtered by the Romans who searched for gold in their stomachs. The present chapbook is one of the rarest, both in the Northern and Southern Netherlands. Rather used and worn, but acceptable copy.- (Sl. cut short; spine frayed, split in the middle, just touching the text; stained and dust-soiled). This ed. not found recorded; cf. Waller 725-729 (Northern Netherlands ed. ca. 1780-1880); Boekenoogen L 18174-18181 (idem, ed. 1762 - ca. 1870); Muller 721-724* (idem, ed. ca. 1650-1850); De Vries 121-122 (ed. ca.-1840-1845); Van den Bergh p. 65 ff.

Petrarca or Petrarch (1304-1374) Italian scholar and poet, often considered the "first humanist".He was widely traveled and became the first great Alpinist. His famous series of poems to Laura, the Canzoniere, are still considered some of the greatest poems ever written. "Not only did this culture hero gain an ardent welcome or these ideas and practices (antiquarianism, study of elegant Latin, study of Greek, etc.), but he shaped them into a single movement that came to dominate the culture of the age: to have established the vogue and ideology of classical antiquity and humanistic studies was Petrarch's most significant achievement. In this sense he was 'the founder of the Renaissance." Wedeck & Schweitzer, Dictionary of the Renaissance. Born in the Tuscan city of Lucca, Vellutello was active in Venice during the early part of the century. Vellutello first made a name for himself by publishing a commentary on Petrarch in 1525 and an edition of Virgil's works in 1533. By the time he turned to Dante, the Petrarch commentary had been twice reprinted and was well on its way to becoming one of the great editorial successes of the period.

Wallis 321.1 'Reid, Andrew (d. 1767?), editor and author, was probably a member of the Reid family of Fife, although details of his birth and upbringing are unknown. He is thought to have moved to London about 1720, and from 1728 he edited the Present State of the Republick of Letters, a periodical which appeared annually in two volumes under Reid's control until it ceased publication in 1736. In 1732 he published an Abstract of Sir Isaac Newton's Chronology of Ancient Kingdoms and in the following year edited, with John Gray, an abridgement of the Philosophical Transactions and Collections, covering the twelve years from 1720. His later studies on scientific subjects included An Account of some Experiments on Tar-Water (1747); An Essay on Logarithms (1767), dedicated to his long-standing friend John Gray; and Elements of the Theory and Practice of Chymistry (3rd edn, 1775), a translation of a work by Pierre Joseph Macquer. In 1767 he was employed to edit for press the first two editions of History of the Life of Henry II by George, first Baron Lyttelton. It was in connection with this, Reid's last literary project, that he was described by Samuel Johnson as 'a man not without considerable abilities, and not unacquainted with letters and with life', who convinced Lyttelton, 'as he had persuaded himself, that he was master of the secret of punctuation' (Johnson, 1.453). The dates of Reid's death and burial are not known, although the Dictionary of National Biography suggests that he probably died in 1767, the third edition of Lyttelton's History (1768) being corrected by another editor'. - Philip Carter, ONDB.

Two bright volumes of Alexander Pope's The Iliad of Homer. Bound in leather with gilt lettering and decoration. Volumes IV and VI of VI. Alexander Pope, 1688 1744, is a famous eighteenth century English poet, best known for his satirical verse and for his translation of Homer.

Pope had been fascinated by Homer since childhood. In 1713, he announced his plans to publish a translation of the Iliad. The work would be available by subscription, with one volume appearing every year over the course of six years. Pope secured a revolutionary deal with the publisher Bernard Lintot, which brought him two hundred guineas a volume. Homer is a legendary ancient Greek epic poet, traditionally said to be the author of the epic poems the Iliad and the Odyssey. The ancient Greeks generally believed that Homer was a historical individual [Publisher: London - Printed for Bernard Lintot]
