Riders, Cardanus
Riders 1694. Brittish Merlin: bedeckt with many delightful varieties and useful verities, fitting the longitude, and latitude of all capacities within the islands of Great Brittains monarchy and chronological observations of principal note, to this year 1694,
|
Printed: 1694. Duodecimo, 2.5 X 5 inches . First Edition A6, B12, C6 This copy is bound in originall calf with original clasps. It is bound with blanks at both ends and is interleafed with blanks. Riders British Merlin which first appeared in 1656 and continued to be published well into the nineteenth century. Riders was published under the control of the Stationers' Company which maintained a virtual monopoly over the lucrative almanac trade until the eighteenth century. The Company aimed to procure the maximum profit possible from these publications by keeping their printing processes efficient and at minimal costs: the fact that the almanacs were produced and therefore sold cheaply ensured that they were affordable to the masses. That is not to say that they were designed exclusively for the poor; users of almanacs in fact belonged to every social group, and the great majority of purchasers would have been yeomen, husbandmen and artisans. By the eighteenth century the efforts of the Stationers' Company to maintain profits meant cutting costs which resulted in bad printing: the paper used was thin and cheap (often leading to "show through" from the verso, as in the title-page here) and the printing was often blurred and smudged. By this time, the contents were somewhat formulaic, with much of the data being reproduced exactly from year to year. The opening displayed here gives an indication of the kind of practical information supplied by the almanac. Before the calendar proper begins, there are several pages of miscellaneous information, much of which is geared to aiding business calculations. Other data includes a table of kings, a geographical description of the world and A computation of the most remarkable passages of the times, from the creation to the year 1701 where it is noted, for example, that 3994 years have elapsed since Noah's Flood. In its function as a valuable reference book, the almanac would usually also contain substantial medical notes. Illustrated here is the "zodiacal" man - a figure, unchanged since classical times, which shows the organs and parts of the body controlled by various signs of the zodiac.

BURLAMAQUI, JEAN JACQUES; THOMAS NUGENT
The Principles of Natural and Politic Law, in Two Volumes.
|
Burlamaqui, J[ean] J[acques] [1694-1748]. Nugent, [Thomas] [1700?-1772], Translator. The Principles of Natural and Politic Law, In Two Volumes. Boston: Printed by Joseph Bumstead for John Boyle, 1792. viii, [20], 424 pp. Octavo (8-1/4" x 5-1/2"). Contemporary tree sheep, lettering piece and gilt fillets to spine. Very light rubbing to extremities, two small worm holes on rear joint, one near head, another on lettering piece. Some toning to text, light foxing to a few leaves, internally clean. An unusually well-preserved copy. $1,250. * First American edition (title page states "Fourth Edition, Revised and Enlarged" in reference to the preceding London editions). Burlamaqui outlined a constitutional system based on principles similar to those of the American founding fathers. "Burlamaqui formulated the principles of popular sovereignty, of delegated power, of a constitution as a fundamental law, of a personal and functional separation of powers into three independent departments...and finally, he provided for an institutional guardian of the fundamental law" (Harvey). Burlamaqui's other great achievement was to put Pufendorf's theories into systematic form. Blackstone was among the many jurists influenced by this work. Marvin stated a general opinion when he observed that "his works are deservedly held in high esteem.": Legal Bibliography (1847) 162.

Maßgebliche zweite lateinische Ausgabe dieser "wahren Fundgrube antiquarischer Gelehrsamkeit" (Schlosser) aus dem Rubens-Kreis. Franciscus Junius d. J. (1591 - 1677) hat die Schrift gegenüber der Erstausgabe von 1637 noch selbst verbessert und erweitert (Index), doch konnte diese Fassung erst 1694 von Johann Georg Graevius mit einer Biographie Junii posthum herausgegeben werden. Sie wird eingangs quasi "geschmückt" durch Freundesbriefe, 2 lateinische von Hugo Grotius und je einem in niederländisch-lateinischer Sprache von Peter Paul Rubens und in Niederländisch von Antonis van Dyck. Der "Catalogus" liegt in erste Ausgabe vor und verzeichnet die Namen antiker Künstler (Architekten, Mechaniker, Maler, Bildhauer, Graveure, Drechsler u.a.) mit Angabe der Quellen und Zitaten aus diesen Texten.- Bald nach seinem Studium der Philologie, Theologie und anderen Wissenschaften an der calvinistisch ausgerichteten Universität in Leiden trat Franciscus Junius d. J. in die Dienste des Thomas Howard, 2. Earl of Arundel, einem bedeutenden Sammler alter Kunst. Neben der Erziehung der Kinder des Earls war er als dessen Bibliothekar tätig. "Aus seiner Arbeit als Bibliothekar ging sein Werk 'De pictura veterum' hervor, die erste umfassende Darstellung der antiken Künste und in Hinsicht auf Werkbezug, angestrebte Vollständigkeit und Systematik zugleich Grundlegung einer modernen wissenschaftlichen Kunstgeschichtsschreibung" (Vöhringer). "De Pictura Veterum is divided in several books. One book is composed of classical texts on the arts and Junius' commentary on them. A second is an alphabetical list of quotations of the lives and works of artists of antiquity. Like other collections of classical quotations, De Pictura Veterum served scholars and rhetoriticians as a source for ancient thought. Junius' commentary to the inscriptions extended the scholarly content. The tome found a second important use, as well. The renaissance debate over the primacy of the arts--the written arts vs. the graphic arts--had once again come to the fore. The most recent dispute arose between the playwright Ben Jonson (1573-1637), and court architect Inigo Jones (1573-1652) for Charles I. In The Painting of the Ancients, Junius can be clearly read as siding with Jones and the supremacy of the visual arts. Junius's championing of the visual arts also supported the notion of art's power to promote a virtuous life, countering the argument of William Prynne (1600-1669) in his Histrio-mastix, 1633, which attacked the Court of Charles I and its patronage of the arts. Later art historians, such as Johannes Overbeck made heavy use of Junius' book, particularly in his influential 'Die antiken Sch [Attributes: Hard Cover]

MANOSCRITTO)
Ordine di pompa funebre praticato in Napoli di Romania per la morte del S.mo D.D. Fran[cesco] Moros[ini] Doge di Venetia e Cap.Generale de’ Mari . Napoli di Romania 15 Genaio 1694
|
- Manoscritto seicentesco su carta, in tre facciate di cm 15 x 21, rilegato all’interno di un fascicolo in pergamena in epoca moderna. Come è noto, Morosini morì settantacinquenne il 6 gennaio 1694 a Nauplia nel Peloponneso (il cui antico nome era appunto Napoli in Romania) dove, caso unico, si trovava al comando della flotta veneziana pur essendo Doge. Pochi giorni prima, forse presentendo la fine, aveva inviato al senato il messaggio: Ci dispiace di non aver potuto fare di più nel servizio alla patria e quanto di più essa meritasse. Il suo funerale fu celebrato a Nauplia nella chiesa di Sant'Antonio, dove furono sepolti il suo cuore e le sue viscere, mentre il corpo fu trasportato a Venezia e tumulato nella chiesa di Santo Stefano. Il manoscritto è il resoconto, in venti punti numerati, del complesso cerimoniale seguito per il funerale a Nauplia. [Attributes: Hard Cover]

(92), 471 [i.e. 473], (1 blank); (6), 551 [i.e. 549], (1 blank) pp. Rare first edition of Petronius' Satyricon, augmented with the 'spurious' fragments edited by François Nodot, together with the translation into French on the facing pages. The Latin text only had been published one year earlier. In October, 1690, François Nodot (c. 1650-1710) a French writer of works in Latin & French and mercenary soldier, announced a remarkable discovery to the French academies. A certain Du Pin, a French officer, had been present at the sack of Belgrade in 1688, where he came across a manuscript which he had sent to Nodot. It proved to contain supplements to the known text of the Satyricon. Nodot's claims were initially accepted and the supplements were thought to be genuine. They were published as such in 1693, but soon gave rise to suspicion. Already in 1694 G. Pelissier (a pseudonym of Breugière de Barante) published his Observations sur le Petrone trouvé à Belgrade. The additions were conclusively shown to be spurious by Pieter Burmann the Elder (whose Latin edition of Petronius appeared in 1709), yet they were sometimes printed in editions of the real fragments down to the early 20th century. They were translated into English, French and into various other languages; translations incorporating the Nodot supplements continued to appear in print until the early 20th century. This edition, which is to all probability printed in Amsterdam, is not present in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris! A second edition was published in Cologne in 1698. Fine set with the engraved armorial bookplate of François Raymond Joseph de Narbonne-Pelet, Vicomte de Marbonne pasted to the back of the front cover of vol. 1, and an erotic engraving on the back of the front cover of vol. 2.- (Last blank (Mm4) of vol II. lacking as usual) Cf.

Jean-Baptiste Coignard 1694 - À Paris, chez Jean Baptiste Coignard, Imprimeur & libraire ordinaire du roi, rue S. Jacques, près S. Severin, au Livre d’or 1694 à 1697 Avec privilège de sa majesté Bel ensemble complet de 5 volumes in-4, reliure pleine basane d’époque, typique fin XVIIe – début XVIIIe siècle. Pour l’ensemble des volumes, dos à cinq nerfs, ornés et dorés, caissons richement ornés, champs dorés (parfois un peu passés pour certains volumes). Pièce de titre en chagrin rouge, tranches mouchetées rouges. Épidermures et taches sur les plats (notamment les volumes 3, 4, 5 où le cuir est parfois arraché près des mors. Quelques très rares trous de vers sans aucune gravité (t. 4). Les coins sont légèrement émoussés (surtout sur les t. 1 et 4) ; Mors fendus, sans gravité (plus important sur le t. 3 et sur le t. 1). Coiffes de têtes et de queue légèrement arasées, de manière plus conséquente sur le volume 1 – coiffes de tête et de queue arrachées). L’intérieur est très frais, avec très peu de rousseurs (peut-être un peu plus sur le t. 2). Ensemble en très bel état, malgré les imperfections signalées. Formé par l’un des disciples de Cujas à Bourges, Domat (1625-1696) retourne à Clermont-Ferrand pour y exercer la profession d’avocat. Nommé avocat au Présidial du Roi, échevin ou encore administrateur de l’hôpital général, il s’illustre comme l’un des grands hommes de la capitale auvergnate. Janséniste convaincu, il noue de forts liens avec Pascal, le défendant dans les grandes controverses de l’époque. Fréquemment consulté par « ces messieurs de Port-Royal », il combat avec ferveur le jésuitisme. Il s’installe à Paris en 1681 et se consacre alors à la rédaction de son œuvre majeure pour laquelle il sera pensionné par le roi Louis XIV à l’instigation sur le rapport de Pelletier (Quérard, II, p. 571, Camus et Dupin, no 402, p. 113 ; M.-F Renoux-Zagamé, DHJF, p. 254 ; Michaud, t. 11, p. 166 ; P.-Y. Gautier, RTD civ. 1992, p. 539). Avec cette œuvre cardinale – Les lois civiles dans leur ordre naturel –, Domat s’est essayé de rationaliser le droit de l’époque. Il tente d’appliquer à la présentation des règles de l’époque la technique mathématique du mos geometricus pour donner au droit une cohérence d’ensemble, animée autour d’un principe premier : la loi fondamentale de l’amour. Les lois des hommes obéissent à une logique et peuvent ainsi être organisées. Considéré comme le précurseur du Code civil et de la codification en général, Domat est loué pour son œuvre, notamment par d’Aguesseau. Même Boileau, qui confessait son peu d’attirance pour le droit, considère Domat comme supérieur à Balde et Cujas, voyant dans ce janséniste « distingué » le « restaurateur de la raison dans la jurisprudence ». La première édition date de 1689, plusieurs fois réimprimée, notamment en 1694. Une seconde édition a paru en 1695, et on a joint, après la mort de Domat, en 1697, Le droit public, suite des lois civiles dans leur ordre naturel ; puis les Harangues qu’il a prononcées. Notre ensemble paraît être issu de la seconde édition (pour le volume 1, 1695), et de la première (pour les volumes 2 et 3, 1694). Les volumes 4 et 5 contenant le Droit public et les Harangues sont de 1697. Les exemplaires de 1694 à 1697, c’est-à-dire du vivant de Domat, sont très rares. Belle collection de ces rares exemplaires de l’œuvre maîtresse du droit de l’Ancien Régime. [Attributes: Hard Cover]

He had his books bound mainly by two binders, one in Amsterdam (1743-65) and one in the Hague, the so-called 'Fleur-de-Lis bindery' (or 'Heraldische Lelie-binderij'), working for De Pinto during the years around 1735-40.

Printed for S. Smith and B. Walford, at the Prince's Arms, in St. Paul's Church-yard, London. 1694 First edition. 8vo. 4.75 x 7 inches. [xvi] + 965 pp. + [19] pp. Illustrated by one plate. Text in double columns. Dedication to William III. Bound in original full calf with blind stamped decorated panels; spine divided into compartments by raised bands, later paper label. Extremities worn and some browning, otherwise a fine copy. Various inscriptions on first free endpaper, including date 1694 and 1733 inscription of Johan Willmot, with 'Cautions in giving the Bark 312.' Another note signed by a doctor on the 'Art of Physick' ('through the Ignorance partly of those that Exercise it and partly of those that Judge easily of Physitians it is Accounted of all arts the most Injorious.'). Two further cautions on rear second free endpaper. The first English translation of a popular pharmacopoeia which was issued in Latin in 1688. Its appearance reflects the desire of the more radical, or less established practitioners, like Salmon and Culpeper to defy the monopolistic hold of the College of Physicians and the Society of Apothecaries over the medical professions, by publishing in the vernacular In the text statements from Bate's writings are clearly distinguished from the expansions and corrections made by Salmon. This edition has also been improved by the addition of Goddard's famous apoplexy pills in addition to other patent remedies. George Bate (1608-88) was educated at Oxford and became a fellow of the College of Physicians of London in 1640. He achieved the notable feat of acting successively as physician to Charles I, Oliver Cromwell and Charles II. but his collection of prescriptions and remedies was only published in Latin by his apothecary, Jack Shipton, as the Pharmacopoeia, twenty years after his death. William Salmon (1644-1713), 'Professor of Physick', had no formal medical education and acquired his early knowledge by being apprenticed to a travelling entertainer and quack. In 1671 he set up his practice outside St Bartholomew's Hospital to provide a service for those patients who failed to gain admission to it. He opposed the monopoly of the College of Physicians, which was attempting to suppress the activities of irregular practitioners like Salmon: 'I know that I have many Enemies in the World, and that the publishing this Work will create me many more, and those powerful ones...' (Preface).. Salmon was a most prolific author, basing his writings on material gleaned from his own extensive library. His translation of Bate appeared in five editions up to 1720. Scarce copy of a popular book of remedies with interesting comments by early physicians who used it. ESTC R17351. Krivatsy/NLM, 889. DNB.
