‎Photograph Paris May 1968:‎

‎Paris: NP 1968. A large 40 cm x 29.5cm black and white silver print / silver gelatin photograph of a Paris wall in May 1968. The photograph shows a poster of Hitler hiding behind a mask of Charles de Gaulle. He is wearing the Cross of Lorraine as his armband. The Free French forces in world war 2 under de Gaulle had used this symbol. This is pinned over a background which states "CRS SS" multiple times. The CRS compagnies républicaines de sécurité was the National Reserve Force to deal with strikes and demonstrations. In fact this slogan dates back to 1948 when the CRS was first formed. The wall also shows a hand written sign for a manifestation in the evening of the 19th at St Lazare. Public demonstrations were often and are still often held in the space in front of the St Lazare station. This is almost certainly a large print of a reportage / press photograph of the time. In red ink to the reverse is written "68." The central poster was used in the 1968 student riots and although we have been unable to trace this photograph there is an "internet ghost" of it which states it was taken in May 1968. Condition is excellent with no significant marks or dirt to it. . Grande photographie argentique noir et blanc 40 cm x 295 cm d'un mur de Paris en mai 1968.

Les manifestations publiques étaient souvent et sont encore souvent organisées dans l'espace devant la gare St Lazare.

Built primarily between 1514 and 1522 by Thomas Bohier and his wife Catherine Briçonnet it replaced an earlier medieval fortress. It is called the Ladies Château as successive women shaped its legacy including Diane de Poitiers who added the river-spanning bridge 1556–1559 and created extensive gardens and Catherine de Médicis who built the grand gallery 1570–1576. . Première édition. Une jolie photographie originale au papier albuminé du château de Chenonceau. Bon tirage net et attrayant. Collée sur un fond en papier gris avec le titre en bas. Le papier gris présente quelques petites entailles et éraflures sur les bords. Le tirage est en excellent état. La photographie mesure 25 cm x 365 cm. La feuille mesure 30 cm x 415 cm. Le château de Chenonceau souvent appelé le « château des dames » est un magnifique chef-d'œuvre de la Renaissance du XVIe siècle situé dans la vallée de la Loire en France qui enjambe de manière unique le Cher sur une structure en forme de pont. Construit principalement entre 1514 et 1522 par Thomas Bohier et son épouse Catherine Briçonnet il a remplacé une ancienne forteresse médiévale. Il est appelé le château des dames car ce sont des femmes qui ont façonné son héritage notamment Diane de Poitiers qui a ajouté le pont enjambant la rivière 1556-1559 et créé de vastes jardins et Catherine de Médicis qui a construit la grande galerie 1570-1576.

‎Plain Astronomy. Manuscript volume of notes on practical astronomy and mathematics‎

‎N.p.: N.p. 1780. <p>A fascinating manual of astronomy particularly as it relates to the form of the motions of the heavens. The manuscript is in three parts: the first part covers the elementary parts of 'spherical astronomy' the second and third parts are more advanced covering sections of the Principia dealing with lunar theory and the inverse-square law of attraction. </p>. EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY MANUSCRIPT NOTEBOOK ON ASTRONOMY. <p>A fascinating manual of astronomy particularly as it relates to the form of the motions of the heavens dating from the period 1780-1825 probably from the beginning of that range. It is in a single hand with the exception of one page though with some variations indicating that different parts of the MS were written at different times. The MS could have been prepared for personal use or as part of public tuition probably the former. The writer summarizes the subject matter of the manual on the first leaf: 'Astronomy is that part of Natural Philosophy which treats of the Phenomena of the heavenly Bodies. It is divided into 2 Parts Physical and Plain: by the latter we discover their Motions from the Apparent Motions; by the former the Causes of these real Motions.' The MS is in three parts which are distinct in terms of subject matter. The first part covers the motion of the Earth around the Sun and its rotation about its axis with the consequences for the apparent motions of the Sun and the heavens; with the Moon and its phases and motion; and with lunar and solar eclipses. There are several references to John Keill's An Introduction to the True Astronomy London 1721 and subsequent editions. The second part principally consists of a discussion of section 11 of Newton's Principia 1713 or later editions in particular as it relates to the motion of the moon. This part ends with a short section on algebra particularly polynomials which seems to have been composed more haphazardly than the remainder of the text. The third part which runs backwards starting from the end of the notebook gives demonstrations of various results in Book I of Principia notably the theorem that the orbits of the bodies in the solar system do not precess if and only if the central attractive force operating on them is exactly inverse-square. This is an important result not only for Newton's system of universal gravitation but also for the observational astronomy of the solar system which is discussed in the opening section of the book. Between the end of the second part and that of the third there are a few blank leaves and others have been torn out but the text appears complete.</p> <br /> <p>The MS appears to be a working through of at least two different texts beginning with Keill's on astronomy. The first part of the MS refers particularly to the material in chapters 7-14 of Keill. It begins with the geometry of the sphere of the Earth and its orbit great circles and poles the plane of the ecliptic equinoctial points and the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. Then comes a section on the different systems of the world Ptolemaic Tychonic and Copernican illustrated by a diagram. The arguments supporting each system are given including the aberration of the fixed stars discovered by James Bradley in 1729 which supports Copernicus. It is noted that the Sun's apparent diameter varies according to the time of year which is explained by the fact that the Earth's distance from the Sun is not constant. Kepler's laws are stated with a long discussion of the area law and a statement that the Earth's orbit is an ellipse. The consequences of the fact that the plane of the Earth's orbit is inclined at an angle to the plane of the ecliptic are discussed the seasons. There is a section devoted to the precession of the equinoxes - the author notes that "Sir Isaac Newton has demonstrated that it arises from the broad spheroidal figure of the Earth." The author then turns to sunspots and the arguments for and against their being on the surface of the Sun. Then comes a long discussion of the planets: the planes and periods of their orbits phases conjunctions retrograde motions apparent brightness and their distances from the Sun. Special attention is given to the phases of Venus the varying appearances of Mars and Saturn's rings. This is followed by an extensive discussion of the Moon: its phases and motion and the fact that the same face is always turned to the Earth which implies that the Moon turns on its axis in the same time as it takes to orbit the Earth. This first part concludes with a fairly detailed account of lunar and solar eclipses.</p> <br /> <p>The second and third parts are notably more mathematical in nature than the first. The second works through Section 11 Prop. 66 of Principia and its corollaries which presents the perturbations of a remote body on a two-body system such as the Sun on the Earth-Moon system. This is one of the most difficult parts of Principia and one with which Newton was never completely happy and which is not entirely correct. The language used by the author of the notebook is reminiscent of the Principia but is primarily directed at following through Newton's working. There is a reference to a numbered figure '80' which does not appear to be numbered in any edition of the Principia. But it seems likely that the language and form of this discussion derives from familiarity with Robert Thorp's edition of Book 1 of the Principia 1777; cf. the notes published in Latin in 1765: pp. 266-90 in 1777 although Thorp is not referenced explicitly as Keill is. Thorp does have a figure 80 but it is not clear that he is the author being used at that particular point. There is then a discussion of algebra and the solution of equations which is fragmentary and incomplete followed by a number of blank and torn-out pages.</p> <br /> <p>The third part of the manuscript consists of a reading of various sections of Newton's Principia 1713 or later editions. Again it appears to take the form of working through and in some cases repeating the proofs of Newton's work rather than representing a translation or paraphrase. It is not based on Motte's translation nor does it correspond with the partial translation and edition of Thorp. It does not appear to be based on any other intermediary between Newton and the writer e.g. Pemberton but to rely on Newton's Latin original here rendered in places pretty exactly into English. It renders propositions 43 to 59 of section 9 of book 1 of the Principia which concern the motion of bodies in moveable orbits and the motion of the apsides. This is a topic which is still of some considerable interest to astronomers and historians of astronomy. Here Newton introduces what has come to be called Newton's 'rotating ellipse proposition' in which a rotating or precessing ellipse is described by a body for which the central force includes a term proportional to the cube of the distance from the focus; this rotating ellipse is compared with a similar stationary ellipse in which another similar body rotates about the same centre of force. Careful analysis leads to expressions for the extra inverse cube force depending on the number of upper and lower apses found in the moving ellipse. This part of the notebook includes the demonstration of the important proposition that the extra inverse cube force is absent i.e. the central force is exactly inverse-square if and only if the orbits of the bodies in the solar system do not precess.</p> <br /> <p>From the hand which seems constant throughout the book although with some considerable variation which might indicate a second writer or more likely the same writer at a different time or with a different pen and the paper we can with some confidence date the notebook to the period 1750-1825. If our supposition that it was Thorp's edition of Principia which was being used we might be able to narrow its date down to 1780-1825. The section of the planets in the first part does not mention Uranus Georgium sidus discovered by William Herschel in 1781 which appears to place this as an upper bound. This would therefore suggest a composition date in the late 1770s.</p> <br /> <p>We are indebted to Scott Mandelbrote for his assistance with the description of this notebook.</p> <br/> <br/> 4to 196 x 162 mm manuscript in ink on Dutch paper with Maid of Dort watermark without countermark. 101 and 26 leaves of text and diagrams 39 blank leaves in the middle last 26 leaves reversed illustrated with several astronomical and mathematical diagrams including one of a solar system.

‎Promenades amusantes d'une jeune famille dans les environs de Paris.‎

‎Paris: Langlume et Peltier 1819. A scarce early edition published by Langlume et Peltier. This is not the book but 12 of the plates plus engraved title with vignette. Gumuchian 4641 has the same uncoloured version of the plates as found here. Early Edition engraved with a small frontispiece and several engraved plates signed by Saint-Claude Claronne Saint-Denis Chareton Sarene Versailles etc. Included here is the illustration of the family eating dinner in the tree-tops of le Poirier sans pareil. This pear tree could apparently accommodate up to a dozen diners. Commonly said to be burned by Allied troops in 1814 evidence from an 1822 engraving of places to visit in Paris suggest that it survived longer. The plates are in decent condition with a little marking only. Nice examples of children's activities. Although this is not a complete copy the plates have been removed from WorldCat / OCLC: 460892067. . Une édition rare publiée par Langlume et Peltier.

Édition ancienne gravée avec un petit frontispice et plusieurs planches gravées signées par Saint-Claude Claronne Saint-Denis Chareton Sarene Versailles etc. On y trouve l'illustration de la famille prenant son dîner dans les branches du Poirier sans pareil. Ce poirier pouvait apparemment accueillir jusqu'à une douzaine de convives. On dit généralement qu'il a été brûlé par les troupes alliées en 1814 mais une gravure de 1822 représentant les lieux à visiter à Paris suggère qu'il a survécu plus longtemps. Les planches sont en bon état avec seulement quelques marques. Belles illustrations des activités des enfants.

‎Réflexions Politiques Sur Les Demarches De La Hollande, Contre Les Attentats De La France. Ov [ou] L'Idée generale des affaires du Temps.‎

‎Cologne Henry Wommer 1684 Première édition. Le lieu de publication, Cologne, est probablement fictif, et cet ouvrage a très certainement été imprimé aux Pays-Bas. Reliure cartonnée relativement récente, avec des plats marbrés et un titre en cuir sur le dos, orné de lettres dorées. En très bon état, ne présentant que de très légères traces d'usure. L'intérieur est en excellent état. Propre et lumineux de bout en bout. 24 pages. 14 cm x 8,5 cm. Cette brochure a vu le jour à un moment charnière de la confrontation entre la République néerlandaise et la France de Louis XIV. La guerre des Réunions (1683-1684) venait de s'achever avec la trêve de Ratisbonne (Regensburg), signée le 15 août 1684, qui accordait à la France Strasbourg, le Luxembourg et d'autres gains territoriaux issus de sa politique dite des « Réunions ». Elle est répertoriée dans la collection « Dutch Pamphlets Online » de Brill, qui conserve des milliers de documents de ce type datant de l'âge d'or néerlandais et de la période de conflit qui s'ensuivit avec la France. L'auteur reste toutefois inconnu. Aucun exemplaire n'était disponible au moment du catalogage, et seuls quelques exemplaires sont conservés dans des bibliothèques (en Allemagne, aux Pays-Bas ou en Pologne). Conforme à WorldCat / OCLC : 905780005.‎

‎First edition. The publication place of Cologne is probably fictitious, and this work was almost certainly printed in Holland. Relatively recent hardback binding with marbled boards and leather title to the spine with gilt titles. In very good condition, with very slight rubbing only. Internally in beautiful condition. Clean and bright throughout. 24 pages long. 14cm x 8.5cm. The pamphlet emerged at a pivotal moment in the confrontation between the Dutch Republic and Louis XIV's France. The War of the Reunions (16831684) had just concluded with the Truce of Ratisbon (Regensburg), signed on 15 August 1684, which rewarded France with Strasbourg, Luxembourg, and other territorial gains from its so-called "Reunion" policy. It is catalogued in the Dutch Pamphlets Online collection by Brill, which preserves thousands of such documents from the Dutch Golden Age and the subsequent period of conflict with France. The author, however, remains unknown. No copies available at the time of cataloguing, with a handful of library holdings (All Germany, Netherlands or Poland).

‎Seder Hosha'anot.‎

‎Italy 19th century. . Hebrew manuscript on paper 27.8 x 20.6 cm rebacked contemporary blind-tooled calf; 17 ll. last leaf blank.<br /> The Hosha'anot prayers are recited every day during the holiday of Sukkot as a reminder of the holiday ceremonies that were performed in the days of the Temple. Instead of circling the altar raising willow branches the willow being one of the Four Species of Sukkot the worshipers circle around the 'bimah' in the synagogue while holding the Four Species and reciting the Hosha'anot. The Torah Scrolls are taken out from the ark and also carried around the 'bimah' during the ceremony.<br /> [Italy], [19th century]. unknown‎

‎Selichoth shel K"A Kislev.‎

‎Schottland Gdansk district 1822. . 8vo; Hebrew manuscript on vellum in square Ashkenazi script; modern marbled half-calf spine with raised bands and blind-tooled ornaments; one half-page colour illustration; 10 ll pp.<br /> A unique Selichoth manuscript on vellum 'Belonging to the heroes of the Chevra Kadisha on the holy community of Schottland'. A rare relic from a 19th-century Jewish community in northern Poland.<br /><br />During the time when Jews were banned from settling in the city of Danzig Gdansk they lived in the small towns of Schottland Weinberg and Langfur which together formed the 'Shul' community an abbreviation of these towns' names in Hebrew. Two important figures served as Rabbis of this small community: Rabbi Meir Posner author of 'Beit Meir' a phenomenal Torah scholar who was in contact with Rabbi Akiva Eiger and the Chatam Sofer as well as Rabbi Elchanan Ashkenazi author of 'Sidrei Taharah' a student of Rabbi Ya'akov Popresh and Rabbi Zvi Hirsch Charif.<br /><br />The fasting day of K"A Kislev for which the Selichoth were written is not marked by the Ashkenazi Jewish communities of our times and very little is known about it. The little information in existence relates to the city of Prague where the Jews used to observe this day of fasting to commemorate the many Jews who were tragically killed in 1744 by the Austrians presumably around the time when Empress Maria Theresa signed an edict ordering the expulsion of all Jews. This might also explain the only colour illustration in the manuscript which depicts the tomb of the Maharal of Prague. It is presumed that this fasting day was also observed by other Jewish communities in Poland.<br /> Schottland (Gdansk district), 1822. hardcover‎
