Johannes Janssonius, Amsterdam, 1650. Important early sea chart of Nova Zemlaya (Nova Zemla, Nova Zembla) from Janssonius' sea atlas, also known as 'Water-world' and published as Atlas Novus Volume V. Very elegant design with two spectacular cartouches, decorated with hunters, polar foxes, polar bears and wallruses. The chart is further embellished with rhumb-lines, two compass roses, two sailing ships, and a sea monster. The scalebar in the lower right is in the form of a skewed 'checker-board', to reflect the rapidly changing scale of this map in the vertical direction, which is caused by the high lattitudes in combination with the projection method. Many details are based on the discoveries from the three Dutch expeditions that searched for a Northeast passage to the riches of the East. The wintering place of Willem Barentsz ("Het behouden Huys") is visible in the upper right. The map is the most decorative and most sought-after early map of the region. Copperplate engraving. Size of printed area 40 x 50 cms. Pristine condition and contemporary color. First edition, first state. [Attributes: First Edition]

Printed for Nathaniel Brooks, at the Angel in Cornhill,, London, 1650. Leybourn's rare pamphlet on surveying Octavo (140 by 90mm), four preliminary pages including title page and note to the reader, 1-182pp, some irregular pagination, woodcut diagrams and illustrations including 3 full-page, woodcut diagram laid down on C1 as instructed, occasional light browning, ink ownership inscription to title, manuscript notations to front and back free endpapers, library stamp to upper pastedown, contemporary sheep, rubbed and scuffed. Collation: A4, B-N8, blank N4-N8 not present. Leybourn's study of surveying was highly influential in advancing the practice during the seventeenth century and into the eighteenth. Leybourn began his career as a bookseller and printer, specialising in technical books of scientific and mathematical treatises. In 1650, he turned his attention to writing, when he published a small pamphlet on surveying, the Planometria, the present work, under the pen name Oliver Wallinby, an anagram of his name. This small tract proved so popular that he was obliged to enlarge it, and in 1653 he published The Compleat Surveyor. The work would go through a further four edition in the seventeenth century. The present work begins with a discussion of the various surveying instruments available, such as plane table, the theodolite, and the circumferentor. Leybourn then goes onto discuss the use of logarithms and trigonometry in the calculation of area, and ends with the measuring of solids, such as timber and masonry. Due to the publication of the Compleat Surveyor shortly a

Johannes Blaeu, Amsterdam, 1650. Map. Copper plate engraving with original hand coloring with highlights in gold. Image measures 15.25" x 21". This beautiful circa 1650 map by Johannes Blaeu depicts southern Russia in detail. Covering the southwest part of Russia and Eastern Ukraine, the map extends from Vologda south to the Sea of Azov and from Mykolaiv east to the Volga River, where it discharges into the Caspian Sea. Throughout, the map notes rivers, towns, cities, lakes, and a host of additional topographic features, and renders forests and mountains in profile. The cities of Moscow, Smolensk, Vologda, Nizhniy Novgorod, and Azov are identified. Small illustrations of animals can also be seen. Perhaps the most interesting feature of this map is the "Fossa Kamouz", a canal connecting the Don and Volga rivers. Although non-existent at the time, the idea of connecting the two rivers has a long history. The first recorded work on the canal was done by the Ottomans in the late 16th century. Today the Lenin Volga Don Shipping Canal, opened in 1952, connects the two rivers at approximately the same location. The map includes three elaborate cartouches. The strapwork title cartouche features wild animals and credits Isaac Massa. Massa was a Dutch mapmaker who returned to Holland in 1609 after traveling to Russia and bringing back original manuscript cartographic material. These manuscripts served Blaeu and Jansson as a basis for a number of their maps. The top left cartouche features Russian huntsmen bearing weapons surrounding the crest bearing the Russian Imperial Eagle. Anoth

Not Stated, Not Stated, 1650. An early and uncommon Testina edition of the collected works of Niccolo Machiavelli, containing his most popular and influential works, including 'The Prince'. Illustrated with engravings. This is one of five 'Testina Editions' of Machiavelli's works, named because of the bust of Machiavelli engraved to the title page. The leading title page is dated 1650, however the four other title pages preceding each work is dated 1550. Both of these dates are incorrect, and the exact date of this editions publication is unknown. 'The British Library Short-title Catalogue of Italian Books Printed in Italy 1465-1600' suggests that this work was actually published 1610, 1620 or 1640. Machiavelli's works are very often misdated, as they were dated retroactively due to the papal ban on Machiavelli's works that begun in 1568. The Testina Editions are known to have false dates, and there are many variants which are difficult to identify, with numerous rearrangements of the text. It is suggested by Ebert that this edition was printed in Geneva. Collated, complete. The final blank is present, and the pagination matches the Jisc record held at the National Trust Libraries. Collated from Jisc and from online scans. Illustrations to pages 116 and 117 of 'Dell' Arte Della Guerra'. Register runs as )(4, A-Rr4, )(2, a-n4, o1, A4, e4, a-mm4, aaa-ttt4, aaaa-tttt4, uuuu3.

It discusses psychology, ethics and the relationship between mind and body; Descartes believed that the soul was a definite entity giving rise to senses, thoughts, feelings, affections and acts of volition, and he was one of the first to regard the brain as an organ which integrated the function of mind and body. Such beliefs had a powerful influence on the thinking of men like Robert Hooke, Giovanni Borelli, Jan Swammerdam and Thomas Willis, and, at a time when scientific research was expanding rapidly, Descartes' theories helped to explain the more puzzling problems of human physiology (see Heirs of Hippocrates, no. 291).Rahir 1116; Willems 1104.

[Italy, c. 1720], 1650. Manuscript on paper, in Italian, 8vo (20 x 13.5 cm), ff. [5, including index], 73; neatly written in dark brown ink in a single hand, pen flourishes to title and colophon, 25 lines per page; very well preserved in contemporary limp vellum, title inked to head of spine, later paper label with shelf mark at foot of spine.A handsome set of apparently unpublished notes on orthopaedics by an anonymous medical student, compiled in Italy in the early 18th century, covering bones, cartilage, ligaments and muscles. The manuscript opens with a detailed analysis of the human skeleton, its bones and articulation, from head to toe, including the spine, clavicle, sternum, ribs, scapulae, hip bone, and hyoid bone, before discussing cartilage (ears, nose, spine etc.) and ligaments (e.g. shoulders and elbows, legs, fingers and toes). The section on muscles covers, inter alia, the eyelids, nose, ears, lips, jaw, tongue, head and neck, and back. Other areas covered by the author include the peritoneum, ventricles, intestines, vena cava, heart, larynx, pericranium, pia, brain, and nerves.In addition to citing Aristotle, Avicenna, Galen and Hippocrates, the author refers to the 16th-century Italian anatomists Niccolo Massa and Realdo Colombo, and to the French physician André du Laurens (1558-1609), who served as personal physician to Marie de' Medici and then to her husband Henry IV of France.

Rothomagi [Rouen]: Sumptibus Ioannis Berthelin Bibliopolae, 1650. 2 vols. in 1, 8vo, (12), 403, (41); (12), 154 pp. First book with numerous woodcut illustrations; second book with engraved initials throughout. Full calf, backstrip richly gilt with red label, marbled endpapers, textblock stained red, green ribbon. Boards rubbed, headcap chipped, old paper repair restoring bottom inch of title page, not touching text, occasional browning, otherwise a solid and very presentable copy. § Porta's two books on physiognomy here bound together (and possibly issued that way, as OCLC records 5 copies bound together, and there is another such for sale). "The ancient "science" of character-reading from physiognomy saw it's Renaissance revival in della Porta's widely influential book - one of the first such manuals to be illustrated -, which itself was the ultimate foundation of Lavater's revival of the idea in the late 18th century. Porta himself was a major figure in the emergence of natural science, though in typical Renaissance fashion he combined elements of credulity with recognition of the importance of experiment and experiential confirmation of preconceived theories."

The leading title page is dated 1650, however the four other title pages preceding each work is dated 1550. Both of these dates are incorrect, and the exact date of this editions publication is unknown. 'The British Library Short-title Catalogue of Italian Books Printed in Italy 1465-1600' suggests that this work was actually published 1610, 1620 or 1640. Machiavelli's works are very often misdated, as they were dated retroactively due to the papal ban on Machiavelli's works that begun in 1568. The Testina Editions are known to have false dates, and there are many variants which are difficult to identify, with numerous rearrangements of the text.

1650. Fine woodcut architectural title-border, 13 large woodcut illustrations and c. 1200 woodcuts of coins and medals by Geronima Parasole. Folio. [10]ff. 318pp. [19]ff. Contemporary vellum, ink title on spine. A late printing of this Italian translation of Agustin's important medal book illustrated with c. 1200 woodcuts of coins. The Roman antiquarian D. O. Sada provided the first Italian translation from the Spanish which was published in 1592; the first edition in Spanish had appeared in 1587. The eleven dialogues deal exhaustively with the coins and medals of the Greeks, Romans, and early Christians and include sections on Roman antiquities. A twelfth dialogue edited by Andreas Schott has been added and a short bibliography of numismatic works is found at the end. The woodcuts are those found in the 1592 edition, regarded as being the earliest book to have been illustrated by a woman. The artist Geronima Parasole (d. 1622) was the wife of the painter Leonardo Norsini and although she is known to have made woodcuts from the designs of Antonio Tempesta her illustrations for the present work are considered as her best. As well as the numerous numismatic cuts there are 14 large woodcuts which include a series of 6 cuts of the Roman triumphal arches. Some of the cuts have one of Parasole?s two monograms, ?P.M.F.? or ?G.A.P.? somem with her ?knife? by the side indicating that she cut the block herself, both recorded by Nagler (see: vol. 2, no. 2715 & vol. IV, no. 3141). Don Antonio Agustin (1516-86) was born of a Spanish noble family and earned a reputation as a fastidious c

Augustin Courbé, Paris, 1650. First edition of the first French etymological dictionary, reprinted in 1694 in an enlarged edition in folio, and again in 1750 in 2 volumes folio; 4to, pp. [16], xxxviii, [2], 845, [1], [28] indexes, approbation, and errata; engraved vignette title page after Picart; 19th century quarter brown calf over marbled boards; edges rubbed and a bit worn, but in all a good, sound copy. Menage (1613-1692), "a man of vast erudition and keen intuition," was one of the few in his day who had first hand knowledge of Old French and the early stages of other Romance languages (which he had gleaned from his studies of law and early legal documents) and was uniquely qualified to carry out such an etymological undertaking. But his sarcasm lead to his expulsion from the French Academy; he had many enemies and suffered under the satire of Moliere and Boileau (see Holmes, History of the French Language, 1938, p. 90; and Ency.

Germany, c. 1600-1650. BOOK DESCRIPTION: DELUXE ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPT PRAYER BOOK DATING CENTURIES AFTER THE INVENTION OF PRINTING. In German, illuminated manuscript on parchment, Germany, c. 1600-1650.
