Piatti foderati con bella carta marmorizzata coeva. Tagli spruzzati in rosso. Frontespizio inciso entro bella cornice xilografica. A pagina I stemma araldico di Monsignor Jerome Vallaresso nobile veneziano al quale l'edizione è dedicata. Completo. Esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Belle testatine e finalini e 24 vignette animate sempre incise all'acquaforte all'inizio di ogni capitolo dell'opera dal celebre incisore originario di Angarano (Vicenza), Giovanni Volpato (fu tra i più importanti collezionisti antiquari e mediatori di antichità della fine del Settecento). Celebre e ricercata edizione veneziana illustrata, considerata fra le più belle mai stampate, del capolavoro del grande Arcivescovo, teologo e pedagogo originario di Château de Fénelon morto a Cambrai nel 1715, François de Salignac de La Mothe Fenelon. Precettore del duca di Borgogna, si oppose a Bossuet e cadde in disgrazia in conseguenza della "querelle" sul quietismo e, soprattutto, dopo la pubblicazione del romanzo Les Aventures de Télémaque (1699), considerato una critica alla politica di Luigi XIV. L'influenza letteraria di quel romanzo rimase notevole per almeno due secoli. Per il suo allievo reale, che però morì nel 1712 senza esser potuto salire al trono, malgrado Luigi morisse un anno prima, Fénelon scrisse molte opere divertenti e istruttive insieme: prima una raccolta di favole, le Aventures d'Astinoüs e i Dialogues des morts modernes ma, soprattutto, nel 1694-1696, il romanzo educativo di avventure e di viaggi Les Aventures de Télémaque, fils d'Ulysse. In questo romanzo, pseudo-storico e utopistico, egli conduce il giovane Telemaco, figlio di Ulisse, insieme con il precettore Mentore (naturalmente una sorta di Fénelon stesso) attraverso diversi paesi dell'antichità che spesso, a causa dei cattivi consiglieri dei governanti, ebbero problemi simili a quelli che attraversavano la Francia di quegli anni, soprattutto le continue guerre, problemi che tuttavia si potrebbero risolvere - almeno così sostiene Fénelon nel romanzo - grazie a una pacifica convivenza con i paesi confinanti, a riforme economiche, allo sviluppo dell'agricoltura e alla fine della produzione degli articoli di lusso. Il maggior avversario di Fénelon a corte fu Bossuet, che pure l'aveva appoggiato in precedenza, ma nel 1694 gli si era opposto sulla questione del quietismo, una polemica teologica, e nel 1697 aveva cercato di ottenere dal papa la sua condanna per lo scritto Explication des maximes des saints sur la vie intérieure, dove Fénelon aveva preso le difese di Madame Guyon (considerata una sorta di nemica pubblica, tanto da essere stata arrestata nel 1698). Il papa Innocenzo XII condannò l'opera nel 1699, essendo state rilevate in essa 23 proposizioni eretiche e Fénelon si sottomise e abiurò. Dal 1698, il Télémaque cominciò a circolare a corte sotto forma di copie, e vi si volle vedere una critica appena mascherata contro il governo autoritario di Luigi XIV, contro la sua politica estera aggressiva e contro la sua politica economica mercantilista, che favoriva le esportazioni ma deprimeva i consumi interni. L'opera, che Fénelon non aveva voluto rendere pubblica, gli fu sottratta da un domestico. Ai primi del 1699, Fénelon perse il posto di precettore e quando, in aprile, il Télémaque fu pubblicato - sia pure anonimo e senza la sua autorizzazione - Luigi XIV vi vide una satira contro il suo regno, fece arrestare il tipografo e bandì dalla corte Fénelon. Prima edizione della celebre versione dello Zerletti. Very good copy in fine binding. Bibl. Rif.: Morazzoni 229, Lapiccirella "Illustrati Veneziani" n.163. 515/13.

Heels, Charles H. [Signed], Capon, Elan R. [Editor]
Railroad Recollections
Signed, without inscription, by author upon title page. [4], 110 pages. Index. Map endpapers. Profusely illustrated with sepia-tone reproductions of archival photos. "Charles Heels worked for the railways from 1912 until his retirement in 1960. Over the years he collected and recorded the history of his vocation. From early in the twentieth century he collected and took photographs related to his special field. The result is that the only copy of many of the photographs of the early days of railroading in Canada have been preserved in his collection. This book illustrates over 100 of these photos and records the history of many of the events which make up the history of railroading in Canada. Heels worked out of Lindsay, Ontario where he was responsible for freight cars in the district between Toronto, Belleville, Peterborough and points north and east. He thus needed to know all of the workings of the railway in central Ontario for almost half a century" - dust jacket. Writing blacked out in lower left corner of title page, otherwise book clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Binding tight. Moderate wear to dust jacket which is now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A quality copy of this important Ontario railroad history. Book

Selections from the writings of Fenelon. With a memoir of his life. By a lady.
Boston: Hilliard Gray and Wilkins 1831. 8vo 18.4 cm; 7.25". 304 pp. <br><br>Fénelon 16511715 a French theologian and archbishop had a tense and complex relationship with the Church hierarchy because of his writings. His office in Cambray was one of the richest benefices in France and upon his banishment from the court of Louis XIV for the publication of his Maxims of the Saints he dedicated himself fully to his position making himself in all that he did the perfect churchman Encyclopaedia Britannica 253.<br>Â Â Â Â The "lady" was Eliza L. Cabot Follen 17871860 the Boston-born author translator and abolitionist. She used her own translation "a free one; but sedulous care has been taken never to depart from the spirit of the author" v and one of her concerns in selection is to de-Catholicize the archbishop allowing his more universal appreciation for as she says his "writings necessarily contain many things that could not be acceptable to Christians of all denominations and have therefore been uniformly omitted" v.<br>Â Â Â Â Fénelon's appearance in Follen's selective epitome would surely have amused him and it pleased the book-buying public: This is the works third edition.<br>Â Â Â Â Provenance: A note states that "this book belonged to Grandmother Dyer: Ann Eliza Morse"; Charles Dyer Norton has also signed an endpaper in ink. <br>Â Â Â Â <br>Â Â Â Â American Imprints 7028. On Fénelon see: Encyclopaedia Britannica 11th ed. X 25254. Mid-19th-century plain black calf with gilt spine compartments tooled in an interesting pattern single gilt rule around covers a little gilt on board edges marbled endpapers and edges; some wear and abrasions but spine gilt still bright. Provenance markings as above some leaves creased across and a little interior staining and spotting especially at rear. => A nice old book. Hilliard, Gray, and Wilkins unknown books

AVANTURES DE TELEMAQUE. FILS D'ULYSSE. OU SUITE DU QUATRIEME LIVRE DE L'ODYSSEE D'HOMERE. TOME I & II. ONE VOLUME
A La Haye: Chez Adrien Motjens 1705. Full Leather. Good binding. An early copy of the Avantures de Telemaque Fils d'Ulysse or the "Adventures of Telemachus son of Ulysses" published six years after the First. Written by Francois Fenelon while he was tutor of Louis Duke of Burgundy. The work served as a didactic tool for the future ruler the young 'Fils de France' as well as a not-so-subtle critique of absolute monarchy and King Louis XIV. Literary historian Jean-Claude Bonnet is quoted as stating that the Avantures is "the true key to the museum of the eighteenth century imagination;" an instant bestseller Telemaque went through numerous editions. Text in French. Two volumes in one; additional title page for Tome II; pagination and collation reset. Title pages in black and red; with seventeen engraved plates throughout. Some offsetting to the type of signature Bb suggesting the leaves were sewn in before they were dry; previous owners' names in ink on the rear flyleaves and first title page; lacking endpapers. 26 272 2 328 pp. Full leather with raised bands leather label and tooling in gilt in compartments.
