(title), [1] (blank), 2-29 pp. Engraved. With a fine pictorial title incorporating various elements including four instrumentalists, two singers and a conductor. With early signature of Le Bras to title (twice) and first page of music. & & Title very slighty worn and creased; edges slightly darkened with two very small tears. . Second edition. Rare. Lesure p. 486. RISM P1355 (a variant, including Le Clerc in the imprint). & & Pergolesi was "a leading figure in the rise of Italian comic opera in the 18th century... The Stabat mater for two solo voices and strings, his most famous work, was evidently written in competition with Alessandro Scarlatti’s Stabat mater for the same voices and instruments. A comparison between the works shows Pergolesi’s new approach to the concertante vocal movement and his development of the ‘church aria’, as well as the earliest application to sacred music of the style of expressive sensibility. The work stirred considerable controversy at home and abroad for its religious propriety and musical style." Grove online

Heister, Lorenz:
Medicinisch Chirurgische und Anatomische Wahrnehmungen. Nebst Kupfern und gedoppelten Registern. 2 Bde.
|
Rostock, verlegts Johann Christian Koppe, 1753, 4°, (48), 1112,(28) pp.; 1770, 4°, (36), 924, (32) pp., 11 gefaltete Kupferstichtafeln, in zwei Pergamenteinbände der Zeit gebunden; frisches Exemplar. "Sosehr Heister ein universeller Gelehrter gewesen ist, war er doch in erster Linie ein Chirurg im heutigen Sinne. Die Vorrede zur ersten Auflage seiner "Chirurgie" beginnt er mit den Worten: "Nachdem mich Gott in den Beruff gesetzet, daß ich neben andern zu der edlen Medicin gehörigen Wissenschafften, vomemlich auch die Chirurgie, alswelche billig vor die dem menschlichen Geschlecht allenöthigste Kunst zu halten ist, öffentlich lehren muß..."Nicht zuletzt geht dies aus seinen "Medizinisch chirurgisch anatomischen Wahrnehmungen" hervor, die er 1753 70jährig veröffentlichte. Sie enthalten 680 Kasuistiken mit nachgetragenen Bemerkungen zur Behandlungsmethode und kritischen Vergleichen mit Erfahrungen anderer Autoren. Beispielhaft seine Äußerung zu Schußwunden, bei denen große und tiefe Einschnitte die Entfernung aller widernatürlichen Dinge ermöglichen. Stecke aber die Kugel in der"Hohligkeit des Leibes", lasse man sie darin, indem "dergleichen oft viele Jahre ohne Schaden und Beschwerung getragen worden."Geradezu modernen notärztlichen Auffassungen entspricht Heisters Kampf für den Kaiserschnitt an der Toten. "Quem non servasti, si potuisti, illum occidisti." Daß ihn in Helmstedt ein Mann zu erschießen drohte, sollte er es wagen, die verstorbene Schwester zu öffnen, ist für uns nicht überraschend. Heisters besonderes Interesse für - im Gegensatz zu Ambroise Pare unverzierte - chirurgische Instrumente verführte ihn nicht dazu, bloß in deren Vielzahl Vorteile zu sehen, jedoch betonte er die Notwendigkeit, für jede chirurgische Maßnahme das richtige Werkzeug zur Hand zu haben. "Ich halte mit denen geschicktesten Wund-Aerzten dafür, dass bei einer jeden wundarzigen Verrichtung die Art, welche mit wenigen und einfachen Werkzeugen gut kann verrichtet werden derjenigen vorzuziehen sey, welche mit einer großen und schwer anzustellenden Gerätschaft muss verrichtet werden." (125. Wahrn.)Die Bedeutung Heisters für die Chirurgie, die uns ihn als "Praeceptor Chirurgiae" verstehen und ehren läßt, entspricht nicht nur unserer späteren Würdigung, sondern ist in Heisters eigener Absicht begründet. Die Entfernung der Chirurgie aus der medizinischen Wissenschaft hemmte ihre notwendige Entwicklung. Heisters epochale Leistung besteht vornehmlich darin, daß er diesen Mangel erkannt und den Weg gefunden hat, ihn zu beseitigen. Die Mittel der Medizin sind für ihn "Diät- oder Lebens-Ordnung, Medicamenten und Chinirgie als die drey Haupt-Seulen der Medicin"." Jürgen Probst, L. Heister, Unfallchirurgie 10 (1984), 1-8 (Nr. 1)

London. 1753.. 138pp. plus two plates. Quarto. Contemporary three quarter calf and marbled boards, neatly rebacked, leather label. Dampstain on endpapers and in gutter of several leaves, else very good. Cox notes this as the second, corrected edition, while Blackmer calls it the first edition, listing the other as simply another edition published the same year. The first part of the book consists of a translation of the journal of a Franciscan friar who travelled to Mount Sinai in 1722, where he viewed the undeciphered hieroglyphics on nearby monuments. Clayton used the hieroglyphics in theorizing on the possibility that they contained a key to the ancient Hebrews. Subsequent visits to the monuments by worthies such as Wortley Montagu, however, led to the conclusion that the hieroglyphics were relatively insignificant. COX I, p.226. BLACKMER 367.

Gray, Thomas
Designs by Mr. Bentley, for Six Poems by Mr. T. Gray
|
For R. Dodsley. Rothschild 1065, London 1753 - Six full-page engraved plates, engraved vignette on the title, twelve vignettes in the text, and six engraved initials by Muller and Grignon. 4to (in half-sheets). [2], 35, [3] ff. Bound in contemporary tree calf, smooth spine divided into six panels by gilt fillets, lettered in the second on a red goatskin label and with a gilt crest at the foot, plain endleaves, light yellow edges. (Joints cracked, worn). The first issue of the first edition, with the half-title reading "Drawings, &c". This was corrected to "Designs, &c" in subsequent issues. The four page "Explanation of the Prints", written by Horace Walpole (who was responsible for publishing the work), precedes the text. Occasional light spotting, ff.25-30 browned, and a few minor marks or stains, but a good copy. The poem "A Long Story" was printed here for the first time, but the other pieces had been previously published, and Gray was averse to the whole project. He was insistent that "Designs" should precede "Poems" in the title, and informed Dodsley: "I desire it to be understood (w'ch is the truth) that the verses are only subordinate & explanatory to the Drawings, & suffer'd be me to go out thus only for that reason.". Walpole tried to persuade Gray to leave out "the Mr. before your names; it is a barbarous addition. one of the Gothicisms I abominate", but "Mr." they remained, and Gray also had his way in suppressing the frontispiece portrait. Whatever Gray may have felt, the work is "by far the most sophisticated example of English rococo book-illustration" and "perhaps, the finest English illustrated book of the century" (Harthan, The History of the Illustrated Book, pp.154-5). Some of the designs, including the famous frontispiece to "Elegy Written in a Country Church Yard", have Gothic features, while "the others display an eclectic melange of currently fashionable decorative motifs, caryatid-draped frontispieces, rococo scrolls and strapwork, an occasional intrusion of chinoiserie, and nude or lightly-clad figures which simultaneously look back to Poussinesque prototypes and forward to Neo-Classicism". Richard Bentley (1708-1782), the son of the great Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, was a protege and friend of Horace Walpole, and a chief designer of Strawberry-Hill. Bookplate of Edward, Lord Suffield (1781-1835).

Uniformly browned. Kitagawa Utamaro (1753-1808) is regarded as one of the foremost painters of beauty, or the 'bijinga' genre. The original name of Utamaro is Ichitaro Kitagawa. It is generally agreed that he started his career as a pupil of the painter Toriyama Sekien. His early known works are actor portraits and theater programs, published under the name of Utagawa Toyoaki. In 1781/82 he changed his name to Kitagawa Utamaro.

La geisha se protege sous un parapluie et la Shinzo tient une lanterne et une boite a Shamisen. Estampe uniformement brunie. Artiste ukyiyoe. Kitagawa Utamaro (1753-1808) apprit en premier les techniques de dessin par Toriyama Sekien artiste de l'ecole Kano et commenca sa carriere en tant qu'illustrateur de livres populaires. Apres avoir subi l'influence de Shigemasa et de Kyoden, il se rallia au style de Kiyonaga pour l'amplifier de sa vision personnelle. Son talent fut aussitot reconnu par un grand editeur de cette epoque, Tsutaya Juzaburo. Utamaro fut specialise dans les portraits de femmes. Son type de beaute feminine dominera l'Ukiyo-e jusque dans le premier quart du dix-neuvieme siecle. Apres une condamnation de 3 jours de prison pour l'un de ses dessins, son talent artistique retrecit. Il mourut peu d'annees apres en 1806. A propos de cette estampe voir Shibui, Kyoshi, Tokyo 1952..

Illustrée d'un frontispice et de 7 f. de planches gravés (dont une dépliante, la carte du monde souterrain) par Brühl. On notera que nombre d'exemplaires à cette date ne possèdent pas les huit planches, la première édition française n'en avait que 3, et la latine, aucune. Ouvrage originellement traduit du latin 'Nicolai Klimii Iter subterraneum' par Eléazar de Mauvillon (1712-1779). Attribué à Holberg par Barbier (Dictionnaire des ouvrages anonymes). Manuel bibliographique des sciences physiques et occultes / Caillet, 1912-1913. Page de titre gravée. Pleine Basane brune d'époque. Dos à nerfs ornés. Pièce de titre beige. Coiffes rognées. Les bordures sont dépourvues de cuir au niveau des coins. Pages de garde renouvelées au XXe. Ouvrage allégorique et satirique de Ludvig Holberg (1684-1754), écrivain danois, professeur de droit et de philosophie. Cette utopie critique violemment les institutions politiques et sociales du temps, à la manière de Swift (Les voyages de Gulliver). C'est le premier récit se déroulant à l'intérieur de la terre. Klimius, un pauvre étudiant, tombe sans un trou et se retrouve à l'intérieur de la terre, il y découvre la planète Nazar et ses habitants qui vivent selon les lois de la nature et de la raison. On remarquera notamment que Nicolas Klimius est la première fiction basée sur les théories astronomiques de Edmond Halley.
