‎WAGNER Mattaheus (1648 - LIpsia 1694)‎

‎Roma‎

‎Acquaforte e bulino, circa 1690. "In alto al centro lo stemma SPQR sormontato da una corona.  Il prototipo iniziale per questo tipologia di panorami è identificabile nel panorama inciso dal Silvestre nel 1642 (si vedano tra l'altro i campanili di San Pietro all'epoca appena costruiti ed immediatamente dopo demoliti per ragioni statiche) e dunque raffigura Roma alla metà del '600. Gli edifici sono poco riconoscibili ed il Tevere segue un errato percorso sotto Trinità dei Monti. La stampa mostra un primo piano con colline ed alberi in controluce senza personaggi, e una legenda di 12 voci. Il nome dell'autore non è scritto sull'incisione ma solo sull'opera che non è stato comunque possibile reperire; non è chiaro neppure se il Wagner sia l'autore o l'editore. Incisa prima del 1694, anno in cui Wagner morì. Secondo alcuni studiosi l'editore potrebbe essere J. Wollf e la data di pubblicazione spostata a circa al 1710" (cfr. Marigliani p. 198). Buono stato di conservazione. Rara. Etching and engraving, circa 1690. In the top centre the SPQR coat of arms surmounted by a crown.  The initial prototype for this type of panorama is identifiable in the panorama engraved by Silvestre in 1642  - see among other things the bell towers of St. Peter's that had just been built and immediately afterwards demolished for static reasons - and therefore depicts Rome in the mid 17th century. The buildings are hardly recognisable and the Tiber follows a wrong path under Trinità dei Monti. The print shows a foreground with hills and trees against the light without any characters, and a key-legend of 12 items. The name of the author is not written on the engraving but only on the title page, which could not be found anyway; it is not clear either if Wagner is the author or the publisher. Engraved before 1694, the year Wagner died. According to some scholars the publisher could be J. Wollf and the date of publication moved to around 1710" (cf. Marigliani p. 198). Good state of preservation. Rare. C. Marigliani, "Le Piante di Roma delle collezioni private", tav. 103.‎

‎JULIUS CAESAR; DID HE CROSS THE CHANNEL? REVIEWED by John Wainwright.‎

‎vii, 126 + Tipped in errata, and an apology from the printer (King & Baird) for the paper stock. Fragmentary original wraps. The copy of General John Watts de Peyster, who is mentioned in "To the Reader" XLib . This is a response to a work by Scott Frederick Surtees (1814-1889) dealing with Julius Caesar and the Invasion of Britain, 55 B.C. It is very scarce. ohn Watts de Peyster, Sr. (1821-1907), was an author on the art of war, philanthropist, and early Adjutant General of the New York National Guard. He served in the New York State Militia during the Mexican-American War and American Civil War. He was one of the first American military critics and noted for his histories of the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, and also published works of drama, poetry, military history, and military biography.

‎Hachette, 1955, in-8°, 344 pp, un portrait en frontispice, aperçu bibliographique, reliure demi-chagrin vert bouteille, dos à 5 nerfs, titres et fleurons dorés, tranches mouchetées, 1er plat de couv. conservé, bon état‎

‎"Pour tout historien traditionnel, je dirais même pour tout homme plus ou moins cultivé, Néron est l'empereur demi-fou et sanguinaire décrit par Tacite, Suétone et Dion Cassius : l'assassin de son demi-frère, de femme, de sa mère, de son précepteur et de combien d'autres ; le débauché déshonorant les femmes et les jeunes gens, se faisant épouser par un de affranchis ; l'histrion se produisant au théâtre et dans les concours. Pour tout lecteur de Sienkiewicz ou tout amateur de cinéma, Néron c'est l'empereur qui a fait brûler Rome pour se donner les jouissances artistiques de la vue d'un bel incendie... On peut considérer que l'ouvrage consacré par G. Walter à Néron est marqué par une volonté de totale réhabilitation d'un empereur dont nous ne possédons l'histoire que par ses ennemis." (J. Rougé, “Néron à la fin du IVe et au début du Ve siècle”, Latomus, 1978) — Selon l'auteur : « L'étude objective des faits aboutit à cette conclusion que... (Néron) n'avait d'autre choix que de recourir aux moyens sanglants employés par lui. »‎

‎CLEOPATRA OF EGYPT From History to Myth‎

‎Light edgewear to wraps. Spine a bit creased. ; This lavishly illustrated catalogue coincides with a major international exhibition celebrating images of Cleopatra. It explores how she was depicted during her own era, in works ranging from coins to life-size sculpture. Exciting new discoveries are featured--including seven Egyptian-style statues believed to represent Cleopatra, and two portraits probably commissioned while she was living in Rome with Julius Caesar. The book also examines interpretations of Cleopatra from the Renaissance to modern times, as seen in paintings, ceramics, jewelry, plays, operas, and film. In addition, recent archaeological finds from Alexandria (Cleopatra's capital) and from Rome illustrate aspects of life in Cleopatra's day. ; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; 384 pages‎

‎SUETONIUS The Scholar and His Caesars‎

‎Ex-library copy with usual stamps and traces of removed pocket (to ffep). No call numbers to spine. ; Seutonius, a Roman historian, was the author of "The Lives of the Caesars". This biography sets the historian's career and his method of dealing with his subject matter in the context of Roman society in the early Empire, and draws a picture of the coherence of Suetonius's life, appointments, scholarship and literary activities. Seutonius is presented as a man of learning, rather than as a failed narrative historian. This portrait takes account of evidence concerning his life and seeks to clarify the character of "The Lives of the Caesars" as a description of emperors and Roman imperial society by a scholarly biographer who himself was in the service of a scholarly Caesar; Classical Life and Letters; 216 pages‎
