VELLEIUS PATERCULUS Marcus or Gaius Velleius Paterculus c. 19 BC. c. 31 AD.; Pieter BURMAN the elder 1668 1741. B. C. A. D.
C. Velleii Paterculi quae supersunt ex Historiae Romanae Voluminibus Duobus. Cum integris scholiis notis variis lectionibus et animadversionibus doctorum. Curante Petro Burmanno.
Lugduni Batavorum Leiden Netherlands:: Apud Samuelem Luchtmans 1719. 1719. 8vo. xl 748 118 pp. Engraved half title plate by F. Bleyswyk Bleyswyck red and black title with printer’s device woodcut decorative initials and tailpieces index; occasional light foxing. Original gilt and blind-stamped full calf five raised bands with gilt-stamped maroon spine piece; worn joints cracked but reinforced with painted Kozo paper. Ownership blind emboss stamps on first and last few leaves including title. Binding worn internally very good. This Compendium of Roman History by Velleius is an early edition of Dutch classical scholar Pieter Burman the elder. His history written in a rhetorical style covered the period from the end of the Trojan War to the death of Livia in 29 A.D. and most useful for the period from the death of Julius Caesar in 44 B.C. to the death of Augustus in 14 A.D. Bryan Michael. Bryan’s Dictionary of Painters and Engravers Volume 1. G. Bell 1903. p. 145. "Velleius Paterculus’ short work is the earliest surviving attempt on the part of a post-Augustan historian to survey the history of the res publica from its origins to his own times. In a period from which no other contemporary historical narrative survives in more than meagre fragments Velleius’ work is uniquely important. It is a critical counter to the later accounts of Tacitus Suetonius and Cassius Dio not simply because it offers a different view of Tiberius but because Velleius saw continuity where later authors saw only radical change which destroyed the Republic and put monarchy in its place. For other reasons too Velleius occupies a unique position in Roman historiography." – See: Eleanor Cowan ed. Velleius Paterculus: Making History Classical Press of Wales 2011.

VENTURELLI Paola (a cura di)
ORO DAI VISCONTI AGLI SFORZA. Smalti e oreficeria nel Ducato di Milano. Catalogo della Mostra, Milano, Museo Diocesano, 30 Settembre 2011 - 30 Gennaio 2012.
In-4 (cm. 27.90), brossura illustrata, con alette, pp. 263, (1), con illustrazioni soprattutto a colori nel testo. In ottimo stato (nice copy). Poche corti possono eguagliare in sfarzo e ricchezza quella dei Visconti e degli Sforza tra XIV e XV secolo. Le spiccate esigenze di lusso e fasto della signoria milanese, infatti - analoghe a quelle delle principali casate d'Europa come Francia, Borgogna, Inghilterra, Baviera -, resero necessaria la produzione di oggetti preziosi, sia destinati alla vita di corte sia a quella del culto. Con virtuosismi tecnici ineguagliabili e grande maestria gli orefici milanesi realizzarono oggetti dalla straordinaria bellezza, che spiccano ancora in particolare per l'uso sapiente delle tecniche smaltarie. Una tradizione artigiana che ha radici antichissime, e che ha portato alla creazione di ornamenti personali, vasellame da tavola, altaroli per la devozione privata, reliquiari, calici e tabernacoli, ma anche carte da gioco, come i celeberrimi "tarocchi viscontei": oggetti che divennero veri e propri status symbol, segno tangibile di sfarzo e potere. Il volume ripercorre questa straordinaria stagione, presentando sessanta pezzi di altissima qualità prodotti dalle botteghe artigiane di Milano, dalla seconda metà del Trecento quando emerge, tra le personalità al servizio dei Visconti quella del miniatore Giovannino De Grassi - fino alla fine del Quattrocento, quando lavora Caradosso Foppa, orefice di fiducia di Ludovico il Moro, ampiamente elogiato tra gli altri da Benvenuto Cellini. Testi di: Michela Barbot, Paolo Bensi, Paolo Biscottini, Anna Melograni, Lucia Miazzo..

ALFREDO RAVASCO
Mm 240x280 Volume in copertina rigida con sovraccoperta, 186 pagine profusamente illustrate in nero e a colori. Copia in condizioni di nuovo-new; spedizione in 24 ore dalla conferma dell'ordine. "Il volume ricostruisce storicamente l'opera di Alfredo Ravasco (1873-1958), orafo-scultore e gioielliere che durante il Ventennio fu uno dei più importanti e innovativi maestri. In un contesto come quello della realtà orafa italiana agli inizi del XX secolo, ancora legata stancamente a moduli tardo ottocenteschi e sostanzialmente succube della schiacciante presenza dei modelli francesi, la sua esuberante creatività tracciò vie nuove. Erede delle straordinarie e bizzarre opere in cristallo, pietre dure e smalti del Manierismo milanese, ricercate da tutte le principali corti d'Europa tra Cinque e Seicento, Ravasco utilizzò per le sue opere materiali dal forte impatto cromatico, prima di lui esclusi dalla grande gioielleria"

VIARD, Alexandre or Andre
Le cuisinier impérial
Paris: Barba 1806. A beautiful copy Scarce first edition of this essential culinary encyclopaedia the most popular work published by a professional cook in the 19th century. Viard a worthy competitor to Carême in terms of celebrity dedicated his book to the famed gourmand and restaurant reviewer Grimod de La Reynière praising Grimod and his fellow food enthusiasts for having elevated culinary discourse. "To judge from his practical knowledge Viard must have been a professional cook at one time thought to have been chef de cuisine to Louis Philippe comte de Ségur and Francis Egerton 8th Earl of Bridgewater but he described himself simply as an homme de bouche food expert probably someone in charge of catering for a large household. Despite his book's impressive title Viard declared he was writing for 'all levels of fortune' in this egalitarian society of citoyens and indeed the polished text includes such basics as pea soup quick-cooked rabbit and salt cod provençale. At a higher level he was the first cook to describe the classic puffy soufflé flavoured with chestnuts frangipane white coffee vanilla or potato still a novelty that became such a symbol of France. The book did well even when the restoration of the French monarchy required a hasty title change to Le cuisinier royale and the 'year of revolutions' in 1848 precipitated another change this time to Le cuisinier national. only to revert to impérial once more under Emperor Napoleon III. The text too underwent hundreds of additions first by Viard and later by colleagues allowing it to remain in print until 1875" Willan running to at least thirty-two editions. Food scholar Darra Goldstein notes that Le cuisinier impérial also contains the first published recipe for apple charlotte. Hector Dubois d'Enghien was a trade bookbinder son of the prominent Brussels binder Joseph-François Dubois d'Enghien 1841-1923. He took over his father's workshop c.1918 and partnered with Edmond Dooms a gilder from De Samblanx in 1923. An accomplished scholar Hector Dubois d'Enghien wrote a history of bookbinding in Belgium published in 1954. The first edition of Le cuisinier impérial is rare both institutionally and commercially. WorldCat Library Hub and KVK locate just six copies institutionally: three copies in Germany Badische LB LB Rheinland-Pfalz Sächsische LB two in the US Harvard Schlesinger Indiana and one in France BnF. We can trace four copies at auction since the 1920s only one of which is dated from within the last 45 years. Octavo 192 x 122 mm. Beautifully bound by Dubois d'Enghien-Dooms in early 20th-century dark green straight-grain half morocco smooth spine lettered in gilt separated into compartments with gilt scrollwork rolls and double fillets floral motifs to first third fourth and fifth compartments marbled boards edges sprinkled blue. Bound like Cagle without the first leaf half-title verso a publisher's advertisement. Fine externally; binder's stamp to front pastedown contents evenly browned and generally clean central gatherings foxed and single stain to sig. 7.7 small spot to p. 387 partly obscuring one word a few ink marks to Index.

Signed and generically inscribed by Rod Vickers upon title page. xii, 139 + vii, 73 pages. Footnotes. Black and white maps and illustrations. A brief history of archaeology in Alberta is presented and the Plains region of the province is described. Classificatory systems for organizing Plains prehistory are reviewed. The possibility of a mid-Wisconsin occupation, and the implication of the Late Wisconsin ice-free corridor are considered. The problem of megafauna extinction and over-hunting is briefly examined. The second paper addresses the question of the positions of various Plains Indian tribes across the southern Alberta landscape at about the time of first European influence and, later, actual European contact. The primary data sources consulted ar the published historic and ethnographic accounts of the four tribes given serious consideration - the Blackfoot, the Kutenai, the Gros Ventre and the Snake or Shoshoni. Clean and unmarked with light wear. A nice copy. Book
