LAET, Johannes de (c 1581 or 1593-1649)
Nieuvve Wereldt // Ofte // Beschrijuinghe // VAN // VVEST-INDIEN. // Door // IOANNES de LAET. or <br>Beschrijvinghe // van // WEST-INDIEN // door // IOANNES DE LAET. // Tweede druck: // In ontallijcke plaetsen ver= // betert vermeerdert met eenige // nieuwe Caerten beelden van // verscheyden dieren ende // planten verciert. // Tot Leyden bij de ELZEVIERS. Ao. 1630 <br>
Leiden/Leyden: bij de Elzeviers. Anno 1630. 1630. An important work in near fine condition; some maps watermarked. Brazil map with reinforcement; otherwise text and plates clean and crisp. Binding: Contemporary vellum; heavily tooled with a central medallion of a golden castle at the heart. Spine rebacked saving the original spine. Notes: Joannes or Johannes De Laet Latinized as Ioannes Latius 1581-1649 was a Dutch geographer and director of the Dutch West India Company in 1620 an office he retained for the rest of his life. The city of Leiden sent him as an elder-delegate to the great Synod of Dort 1618–1619. De Laet was the first to use expression derivatives developed later; i.e. ‘Manhattes’ ‘Manhatans’ and ‘Nieuvv-Amsterdam’ in-text; ‘Manbat tes’ and ‘N. Amsterdam’ on his NOVA ANGLIA map to describe the recently founded New York; and ‘Noordt Rivier’ and ‘Zuyd’ ‘Rivier’ for the Hudson and Delaware rivers. The first edition published in Dutch in 1625 as “Nieuwe Wereldt ofte Beschrijvinghe van West-Indien uit veelerhande Schriften ende Aen-teekeningen van verscheyden Natien†was followed by the second the present work in 1630 which was greatly improved due to its four additional maps and illustrations depicting animals and plants indigenous to America. <br>In terms of pagination and the maps in our work they are congruent with John Carter Brown Library’s copy. Concerning this work and the following maps in particular Burden states: <br>"Considerable effort went into the text and maps of this work which was the most accurate description of the Americas available at the time. It is arguably the finest published in the seventeenth century. The exhaustive research involved de Laet reading all of the published and manuscript material that he could find. For the cartographic work he had much to call on being a director of the recently formed Dutch West India Company in charge of all Dutch interests in America and Africa. He therefore had access to the latest geographic knowledge. He drew upon the fine talents of Hessel Gerritsz the official cartographer to the Company since 1617. Gerritsz attained this post before Willem Blaeu under whom he was apprenticed and who was his senior by ten years. <br>"The maps were some of the first to depart from the heavier style of the Mercator and Ortelius period. This more open style of engraving was one that both Blaeu and Janssonius would use in their atlases. The first edition of the book contained ten maps which with the exception of this one the NOVA HISPANIA. // NOVA GALICIA. // GVATIMALA. - Leiden 1625 concentrated on South America. There were none of North America until the second edition in 1630. Although many maps had been produced of New Spain few extended north into the area of present-day Texas. The Rio Grande is here still named the R. Palmas. The B. del Spiritu Santo possibly represents the Mississippi River. Some authorities have questioned this usual assumption. On the west coast of Florida we find the landing place of Juan Ponce de Leon. The delineation of the coastlines particularly of the Gulf of Mexico and the north-west coast of Mexico as the most accurate to date. The map appeared in the subsequent editions in Dutch 1630 Latin 1633 and French 1640. In all these there is no text on the reverse."<br>Burden: 215 p.267 <br>Re: De Laet's AMERICAE// sive// INDIAE OCCIDENTALIS// Tabula Generalis: <br>"The first of these maps was a general one of the continent. Its most interesting feature is that although we know de Laet had seen maps of California as an island he relies on the more trustworthy accounts such as Herrera in depicting a peninsular form. The map has the best west coast delineation to date. He also does not get drawn into the debate about the North West Passage preferring to cut his map short of these latitudes. It appeared in the subsequent editions in Latin 1633 and French 1640. In all these there is no text on the reverse."

Lamb, Charles Calligrapher: FME or FEM
Manuscript A Dissertation upoh Roast Pig
Quarter Calf. Very Good. A beautiful illuminated manuscript rendering of Lamb's witty and whimsical classic satiric essay which pokes fun at the extremes engendered by the quest for gastronomic bliss. The illustrations are done in a faux Chinese style as befitting the subject matter of the essay. N.p. n.d. 20th century. 4to. 30 by 24 cm. Unpaginated 16 leaves with content on both sides other than title and final text leaf followed by five blank leaves. With 12 watercolored illustrations most half to nearly full paged with text written with a calligraphic hand. The artist and calligrapher we should think were one and the same but remain anonymous other than initials given at the end which given the letter placement could be FME or FEM. Condition: splitting along rear joint of the leather. Revealed are cords and some of the paper gathering. Boards are splayed. Internally clean and bright and one might fairly rank as fine. unknown

Modern blue cloth with gold lettering to spines. <br /> <br /> Rare first edition of this first catalogue of the Greek manuscripts on Mount Athos a mountain and peninsula in northeastern Greece and an important centre of Eastern Orthodox monasticism.<br /> <br /> In this 2-volume set the author lists no less than 6618 fully annotated religious manuscripts at the time of publication 1895-1900.<br /> <br /> From the time monks first settled on the Holy Mountain and formed an organized monastic community there was a need for books to satisfy their devotional and liturgical needs and also to cultivate the mind. These factors proved decisive in determining the types and content of the manuscripts which gradually began to accumulate in the monasteries and other foundations and which were eventually to form the manuscript collection of each.<br /> <br /> Includes an extensive Index and bibliography at the end of second volume pp. 477-597.<br /> <br /> Ex-library bookplate on inside of each front cover and reference sticker on inside of back covers.

Lando or Landi Ortensio.
Paradossi
Lyon: per Gioanni Pullon da Trino" i.e. Jean Pullon dit de Trin 1543. First edition. Very Good/Exquisitely rare first printing of Ortensio Lando's most famous book his first in a modern language that in later editions and in translations became a 16th-century best seller. Lando's name does not appear on the title page or anywhere in the book except in code. His real name shows up on no edition published in the 16th century. A dedicatory leaf after the colophon attributes the text to "M.O.L.M" interpreted generally as "Messer Ortensio Landi Milanese." More cryptically there is a phrase printed after the telos "SVISNETROH TABEDVL" mirror writing for "ludebat Hortensius" Ortensio has played. It is serious play. The Paradossi undertakes in the key of popular "world upside down" folklore to prove black what is commonly accepted as white. For instance it is better to be poor than rich better ugly than handsome better drunk than sober and so on. Biographical sketches of Lando are remarkable for how little information about him is available. Peer of Aretino and Doni friend to Etienne Dolet later incinerated for heresy he was a non-believer who nevertheless took Augustinian orders and later deserted them. Member of a prestigious literary club L'accademia degli elevati he was above all an outsider. All of his books landed on the Index of Prohibited Books and "I paradossi" in particular was widely banned and copies of it were confiscated. Probably the first book printed by the obscure Italian printer working in Lyon Giovanni Pullone da Trino later called "Jean Pullon de Trin". Following Pullon's modest press run the text was quickly taken up and reprinted badly by Bindoni and others in Venice twice in 1544 1545 1563 1594 etc. and translated into Latin into French by Charles Estienne 1553 and into English 1596. If you Google "Jean Pullon" you will get dozens of pages advertising pull-on jeans. . Octavo 17cm; 112 leaves signed A-O8. Printer's device on title page Ferraris 1 showing a human-faced moon in the sky reflected on the surface of the land. Bound in later 18th-century or 19th-century dark green leather in neoclassical style with gilt central losenge within gilt borders on both boards; gilt-tooled spine with leather title label. Joints reinforced but tender; light marginal stain along bottom edge; O7 torn and repaired remains of tape. Early marginalia trimmed close. Later c19 notes in French on endleaves. Pages not bright. All in all a very good copy of a very rare book.

Lando or Landi Ortensio.
Quattro libri de dubbi:
Venice: Gabriel GIolito de' Ferrari 1552. First edition. Very Good/The title promises four sets of "questions and their solutions" and indeed that was the plan. Lando wrote Q&A on four topics: medical questions including dietary and aging functions ethical questions questions about religion and questions about love and sex. It was the love and sex part that raised the eyebrows of the censors and neither Lando or his publisher Giolito could get permissions to print it as the book was going to press. As Giolito himself declares in a postscript to the reader: "I promised you four books of doubts but since I haven't yet been granted a license for the doubts about love I'm forced to give you only three. Be well and enjoy as much of the book as I could give you." The license came later and the text appeared in later editions. This unfinished text with its publisher's apology represents a fascinating birthmark on the 16th-century book trade. The Q&A ranges over hundreds of topics calling upon the author's medical training much involved with the humors and temperaments associated with various organs objects and creatures his classical erudition and his training in the Augustinian order. The three sections together provide comprehensive insight into 16th century medicine and popular religious and moral thought. The odd matter of two versions of the dedication page leaf A ii is not easily explained. We suspect with some justification that Lando sought patronage for the same work in different locations knowing that Protestant Germany rarely spoke with Catholic Italy and vice versa. He might have found different backers in different markets. We know that to be the case with at least one other book of Lando's the "Sermoni Funebri" 1549 where some copies are dedicated to Fugger and others to Niccolo degli Alberti. That case is known and recorded. We find no recorded instance of the alternate dedication of "Quattro libri dei dubbi" to Fugger and no record of the author being identified by signing the dedication letter in any other copy. The "Quattro libri de dubbi" was quickly translated into French Lyon 1558 and by William Painter into English entitled "Delectable demaundes and pleasaunt questions with their severall aunswers." 1566 and again 1640. . Octavo 16 cm; 318 2 pages. Woodcut device on title page and on last page. Woodcut initials. Bound in recent vellum in period style yapp edges titled in ink on spine. Early 20th-century bibliographical note bound in. Marginal annotations in contemporary hand. Leaf a ii the dedicatory letter present in two states the cancel addressed to Johann Jakob Fugger closing with Lando's name and the original leaf addressed to Christoph Mielich and not signed as usual. Small perforation in the cancel affecting a word. Occasional light stains darker on last leaf. References: Bongi I 368; Melzi II 391; BM Italian 377 1556 ed.; Fontanini II 117.

Lando, Ortensio [?]; or Agostino Valier [?].
Oratione consolatoria in morte della molto magnifica S. la S. Helisabetta Dotta Capodelista .
Padova: Gratioso Perchacino 1555. Original edition. Very Good. Quarto 20 cm; 12 leaves signed a-c4 last leaf blank. Printer's device a crowned salamander ensconced in flames on title page. Woodcut initial at start of text. Bound in recent half morocco over marbled boards. Trimmed close to top edge. Gutters guarded. Some spotting on title page but generally clean. <br /> <br />Reference: EDIT 16 CNCE 57958; For attribution to Lando see Silvana Seidel Menchi Chi fu Ortensio Lando "Rivista storica italiana" #106 1994 501-564. Not in Grendler. <br /><br />This is an essay about death. In particular it is a eulogy on the death of young Elizabetta Dotta who it is stated in the text died recently married at the age of 16 years 8 months 24 days and 12 hours. The cause of her death is not given. It does not indulge in a moment's sorrow over the young woman's early demise. Instead it is an extended encomium of death itself praising death as liberation from the essential misery of life in this corrupt and depraved world. As such it is an eloquent statement of philosophical pessimism the tradition which views life as the soul's exile as suffering and sees death as a preferable alternative. While the text is not signed the author is presumed to be Ortensio Lando the uncomfortable peripatetic humanist who never stayed in one place for very long either physically or philosophically. "What is life" Lando asks. "Smoke a dream a running shadow a ship that leaves no trace an arrow shot to its destination. Gratioso Perchacino hardcover
