Nicolosi, J.B
Continentem Dudum Notam Comporebat Joa Baptista Nicolosius
|
Nicolosi, J.B. Continentem Dudum Notam Comporebat Joa Baptista Nicolosius. Paris 1660. Interesting and important Eastern Hemisphere map that includes Tasman's discoveries before they were widely publicized in the Dutch maritime atlases. It shows an accurate representation of the west coast of Arnhemland and of Van Diemen's Land. Interestingly, it retains a 2nd north coast of Australia, that of Marco Polo's "Beach." "Beach" has been modified to allow inclusion of discoveries made on Nuyt's voyage of 1627.

Boniel de Catilhon (Me Antoine) :
La vie de Messire Claude Expilly, chevalier, Conseiller du Roy en son Conseil d'Estat, et Président au Parlement de Grenoble.
|
Grenoble, Philippe Charuys, 1660 ; in-4 ; plein vélin ivoire muet (reliure de l'époque) ; 166 pp., (1) f. blanc, portrait gravé à l'eau-forte en frontispice. EDITION ORIGINALE. Antoine Boniel de Catilhon était le neveu de Claude Expilly qui avait épousé Isabeau de Catilhon. Exemplaire de M. Perrin, avocat à Grenoble, à qui il a été offert par Gasparde Expilly, fille de Claude et veuve en secondes noces de Claude de Fassion, sieur de Brion qui succéda à Claude Expilly dans sa charge d'avocat-général puis de Président du Parlement, selon une note manuscrite signée de sa main et datée de juin 1661 ; puis de Monsieur Duclos du Vernay, Trésorier de France en sa généralité de Dauphiné, qui était le petit neveu de feu M. Perrin, dont il hérita (note de sa main datée de Miribel -dans l'Ain-, le 18 août 1734). Né à Voiron (1561-1636), magistrat et poète, il fit ses études au collège des Jésuites de Tournon puis à Paris, où il fit son droit ; après un long voyage en Italie où il fréquenta pas mal de savants, il reçut son bonnet de docteur des mains de Cujas, un des plus fameux juristes de son temps. Reçu avocat en Parlement de Grenoble en 1583, il fit de brillants débuts, se lia avec Lesdiguières dont il fut un fidèle compagnon et devint Procureur Général à la Chambre des Comptes en 1595, puis avocat général en Parlement de Dauphiné. À ces différents postes, il avait pu mettre en pratique son grand sens de la diplomatie et ses grandes connaissances du droit. En 1608, il fit paraitre son célèbre "Plaidoyez de M. Claude Expilly...". Il participa aux négociations pour fixer les limites précises de la Savoie et du Dauphiné puis du Comtat-Venaissin. Très bon exemplaire.

Mark S. Dawson
Gentility and the Comic Theatre of Late Stuart London
|
Cambridge University Press. Please note that deliveries to addresses in the UK and Europe will be in 4-14 business days. Other countries should refer to Alibris standard times. Where Adam delved and Eve span Who was then the gentleman? Mark Dawson's approach to this riddle is not to study the lives of those said to belong to early modern England's gentry. He suggests we remain skeptical of all answers to this question and consider what was at stake whenever it was posed. We should conceive of gentility as a mutable process of social delineation. Gentility was a matter of power and language; cultural definition and social domination. Neither consistently defined nor applied to particular social groups, gentility was about identifying society's elite. The book examines how gentility was portrayed through plays at London's theatres (1660? ? ? 1725). Employing a rich assembly of sources, comedies with their cits and fops, periodicals, correspondence of theatre patrons and polemic from its detractors, Dawson revises several of social history's conclusions about the gentry and offers new interpretations to students of late Stuart drama.

The work is divided into 4 main parts. The first part is devoted to the mammals and illustrated with numerous beautifully designed animals on 80 plates, including a unicorn. The second part treats the fishes with numerous illustrations of all kinds of fishes on 48 plates, one more than in the first Latin edition, depicting the sea unicorn, with an extra leaf of explanatory text added as well. To this part a sub-part on other sea-animals, like shell-fishes, polyps, etc. is added, with 20 plates. The third part is devoted to the birds, beautifully illustrated on 62 plates. The fourth and last main part then treats insects, including butterflies, with numerous specimen depicted on 28 plates, and to this part again a sub-part is added on snakes and dragons, illustrated on 12 plates. The Dutch edition was presented to the Japanese ruler Shogun Yoshimune, and it became the only source of knowledge of western zoology in Japan, until in 1750 Jonston was succeeded by an extensive twelve volume compilation, made by the Japanese physicians from a variety of Dutch sources. Even that compilation, according to Boxer, still heavily leaned on Johnston's magnum opus. Good copy.- (Small tear in title page, tear restored plate 29).

[RICHELIEU, Cardinal, Armand Jean du Plessis de Richelieu (1585-1642)] AUBERY, Antoine (1616-1695)
L!histoire du Cardinal Dvc de Richeliev par le Sievr Avbery advocat av parlement & aux conseils du Roy
|
Paris:: Antoine Bertier. 1660. hardcover. 2. Large 4to. [20], 628, [26] pp. Engraved frontis., red and black title-page with large printer!s device. Contemporary full brown mottled calf, raised bands, gilt-stamped spine panels and title; front hinge beginning to split, cords holding firm, extremities scratched, corners showing. Contemporary ink ownership marks on title-page. Very good. . FIRST EDITION. This history of Cardinal Richelieu is by the French historian Antoine Aubery. The son of a Parisian landlord, Aubery became a lawyer in the French Parliament. Very scholarly, he was one of the official writers and apologists to the Court of France in the 18th century. Aubery was the author of many historical works, including Histoire generale des cadinaux (1642) and Memoires pour servir a l!histoire du cardinal duc de Richelieu (1660). The fine, large (305 x 218 mm) engraved frontispiece of Richelieu was executed by Aegid [Giles] Rousselet (1610-1686). The Cardinal de Richelieu was often known by the title of the King!s !Chief Minister! or !First Minister!. As a result, he is sometimes considered to be the world!s first Prime Minister, in the modern sense of the term. He sought to consolidate royal power and crush domestic factions. By restraining the power of the nobility, he transformed France into a strong, centralized state. His chief foreign policy objective was to check the power of the Austro-Spanish Habsburg dynasty. Although he was a cardinal, he did not hesitate to make alliances with Protestant rulers in attempting to achieve this goal. His tenure was marked by the Thirty Years! War that engulfed Europe. Richelieu was also famous for his patronage of the arts; most notably, he founded the Academie Francaise, the learned society responsible for matters pertaining to the French language. Richelieu is also known by the sobriquet l!Eminence rouge (!the Red Eminence!), from the red shade of a cardinal!s vestments and the style !eminence! as a cardinal.

CAMPANI, Giuseppe.
Discorso di Giuseppe Campani, intorno a' suoi muti oriuoli, alle nuove sfere Archimedee & ad un' altra rarissima, & utilissima inventione de personaggio cospicuo.
|
Roma, Francesco Moneta, 1660. In-12, [dimension: 108 x 78 mm] de (16), 111 pp., 1 f. bl. Vélin. (Reliure de l'époque.) Première édition de cet ouvrage "d'une rareté légendaire" selon Weil. Les frères Matteo et Giuseppe Campani, maîtres horlogers romains, ont inventé une horloge à balancier, au même moment qu'Huygens, dont ils ne connaissaient pas les travaux. Le pape Alexandre VII leur avait commandé une horloge "muette", qui n'émette pas le tic-tac ordinaire et dont l'heure soit lisible même de nuit. "This little book is of particular interest, not on the account of the silent clocks, but because it describes the accidental invention by the author of a pendulum as applied to a clock, and adduces some evidence on the question of Huygens' priority in the application of the pendulum. (...) In trying different arrangements of balance, Giuseppe lenghtened the arms of the balance and attached by wax two leaden weignts at their ends. While he was watching the action, the upper weight fell off, leaving only the lower weight and, to his astonishment, the clock containued to work, with the balance out of equilibrium; further he found the going extremely regular. He then showed the clock to his brother, who remarked that it was a great invention, discovered accidentally, applicable to all kinds of clocks, and that it was in fact the pendulum discovered by Galileo Galilei for measuring accurately the time in his celestial observations. (...) I feel not doubt that Giuseppe did discover the application of a pendulum to a clock, without knowledge of Huygens' recent work." (Baillie). La "sphère d'Archimède" présentée à la fin du volume est l'instrument à mouvement perpétuel de Cornelius Drebbel offert à James 1er. Le seul exemplaire à notre connaissance, mis en vente au XXe siècle est celui du Dr. Weill vers 1960, qui est décrit "Contemp. limp vellum" et qui est probablement cet exemplaire. Bel exemplaire. Riccardi 1, 218 (ne cite que l'exemplaire de la Marciana). Weil, Catalogue 29 n°23 : "of legendary rarity" (probably this copy). Baillie, Clocks and watches, An historical bibliography pp. 59-60.

In Geneva, appresso Pietro Chouet, 1660. Fort in-8 pleine basane, dos a six nerfs, orne, [4]-842 (844)-[12] pages. (Reliure frottee, quelques rousseurs et mouillures, petit travail de vers marginal.) BON EXEMPLAIRE. ***___***___*** Extremely in-8 full sheepskin, back with six nerves, decorated, [4] - 842 (844) - [12] pages. (Rubbed Binding, some rednesses and wettings, small marginal work of worms.) GLAIRE, II, 2050-2051: "Bossuet said that under a froc, Sarpi hid a heart of calvinist". This fourth edition seems to be the handing-over under press of the second edition, published, without name and date, in 1629: both comprise the same error of pagination, namely two numbered layers 839/840. The first edition appeared in London in 1619. Sarpi had been born in Venice in 1552; it died in 1623. GOOD. GLAIRE, II, 2050-2051 : "Bossuet a dit que sous un froc, Sarpi cachait un coeur de calviniste". Cette quatrieme edition semble etre la remise sous presse de la deuxieme edition, parue, sans nom et sans date, en 1629 : les deux comportent la meme erreur de pagination, a savoir deux feuillets numerotes 839/840. La premiere edition parut a Londres en 1619. Sarpi etait ne a Venise en 1552 ; il mourut en 1623.

Josef Köstlbauer: Quellenautopsie "Martin Meyer (1659)", in: Europabegriffe und Europavorstellungen im 17. Jahrhundert. Web-Projekt, Wolfgang Schmale (Dir.): "Das "Diarium Europaeum" erschien kontinuierlich 34 Jahre lang, von 1659 bis 1683, und umfasste zum Zeitpunkt seiner Einstellung 45 Bände. Dieses beinahe schon monumental zu nennende Werk lässt sich am besten mit den Worten seines ursprünglichen Autors Martin Meyer als "tägliche Geschichts=Erzählung" charakterisieren, in der sämtliche nennenswerte Ereignisse vom Jänner 1657 bis zum Dezember 1681 Tag für Tag, Woche für Woche, Monat für Monat aufgelistet und beschrieben werden. Im Vorwort zum ersten Band erklärt der Autor, sein Diarium richte sich an den "Geschicht=liebenden Leser", "zu Vermehrung der Geschichten Wissenschaft/ Belustigung des Gemühts/ und Verkürtzung der Zeit". Das Diarium vereint also in sich die Funktionen einer Chronik und eines Nachrichtenmagazins, da aktuelle oder rezente Ereignisse einerseits veröffentlicht und andererseits zwischen den Buchdeckeln für die Nachwelt archiviert werden. Dem Leser bietet sich eine Fülle an Inhalten: "Vornehme und wichtige Reichs=Sachen und Handlungen" werden ebenso beschrieben wie der Verlauf von Feldzügen, Schlachten und Scharmützeln, Belagerungen und Plünderungen von Städten, Schlössern und Festungen. Dabei werden vor allem Mannschaftsstärken und Verluste der beteiligten Parteien minutiös festgehalten. Aber auch Gesellschaftsmeldungen über Ernennungen, Gesandtschaftsantritte, Teilnehmer von Reichstagen, Heiraten und Mesalliancen, Todesfälle, Kleiderordnungen, Straftaten, Urteile und Exekutionen fehlen nicht. (...) Sowohl in die chronologische Berichterstattung eingestreut, als auch in umfangreichen Appendices am Ende der Bände zusammengefasst sind zahlreiche Texte aus allen Teilen Europas, die nahezu das gesamte Spektrum neuzeitlicher Schriftlichkeit umfassen: Verträge, Korrespondenzen, Berichte, Herrschergenealogien, Traktate und Diskurse, Sonette, Gebete, juristische Gutachten etc. (...) Ursprünglich in fremden Sprachen verfasste Schriften sind ausnahmslos übersetzt. Was das Diarium dabei zu einer besonders wertvollen Quelle erhebt ist der Umstand, dass sich die Verleger in vielen Fällen die Mühe machten, Originaltext und Übersetzung neben- oder nacheinander abzudrucken. Erstens weist dies ganz deutlich auf die Intention des Autors hin, einen Bildungsauftrag gegenüber seinem Publikum wahrzunehmen, indem auch einer weniger gelehrten Leserschaft Dokumente von Bedeutung zugänglich gemacht werden und zweitens drückt sich in der Gegenüberstellung von Original und Übersetzung eine Auffassung von (Geschichts-)Wissenschaft aus, die ihre Mission in der redlichen Wiedergabe sieht und sich mehr der Archivierung und Edition, als der Interpretation verpflichtet fühlt.(...) Trotz dem oft chaotisch erscheinenden Nebeneinander von Nachrichten und Texten verschiedenster Provenienz und Qualität ist das "Diarium Europaeum" in mehrfacher Hinsicht eine faszinierende historische Quelle. Einerseits ist hier eine Unzahl politischer und gesellschaftlicher Ereignisse und Aktivitäten im Detail festgehalten, andererseits wird das breite Spektrum der Wahrnehmungswelten in der zweiten Hälfte des 17. Jahrhunderts dokumentiert." Alle Rechte dieser Analyse und Darstellung beim Autor Josef Köstbauer, von uns auszugsweise zitiert nach o.a. Interneteintrag].

Baxter, Richard (1615-1691)
TREATISE ON SELF-DENYALL.
|
London Printed for Robert White, for Nevil Simmons Bookseller in Kederminster 1660, First Edition Hardcover Poor condition [lxviii], 339 pages of text. Full leather binding in poor condition: Inexpertly rebacked, with cracked and peeling to boards with several pieces of leather lacking. The first 28 pages (14 leaves) of the un-numbered preliminary section are damaged at the top edge with loss. About 15% of the title page is lacking, and the percentage reduces with each page; it appears to be some sort of gouging, or it could be old vermin damage. With the exception of one page with an illegible name written in the margin, the remainder of the text is quite clean and attractive.

LE MOYNE (Pierre)
Lettre héroïque à Monseigneur le Prince sur son retour.
|
Paris, François Muguet et Jean Guignard 1660 - in-4, 19 pp., en feuilles.Surcharges manuscrites anciennes en marge, extrêmement critiques. Les négociations de Philippe IV en sa faveur lors du Traité des Pyrénées avaient plus retardé que facilité le retour du Prince de Condé en France après sa longue période de révolte : réintégré dans ses biens en 1659, ce ne fut que le 27 janvier 1660 qu'il se présenta à Louis XIV en revenant de Bruxelles. Le pardon royal assuré ne signifia pas la fin de la méfiance, et le souverain commença par le limiter à des fonctions représentatives. Cette pièce du poète jésuite Le Moyne, si elle n'ajoute rien à la gloire du Prince, illustre et documente ce moment de réconciliation politique. Cioranescu, XVII, 42386.
