Chronographus, Philo.
Arca Temporum Mundi Reserata, Oder: Der Welt eröffnete Zeit- und Geschicht-Beschreibung. Begreiffend: Perspeculatum [...]. Augsburg, Jakob Koppmayer for Jakob Enderlin, 1693.
Folio (305 x 190 mm). 2 parts in 1 volume. (4), 31, (1), 64 pp. With 12 (instead of 16) plates containing 24 copper engravings. Modern boards. Fascinating, little-received chronographical study focusing on the history of the Eastern Mediterranean and Asia Minor, then under Ottoman rule. The anonymous late 17th-century German author hides behind the name of "Philo Chronographus" and is evidently identical with the "Philo Cosmographus" who produced the similarly themed geographical work, "Trinum Marinum", which is announced on the title page and was often issued together with this, though produced by a different publisher and catalogued separately. The first part of the work contains a general introduction which relates the 24 hours of the day to the time from Creation to the year 1800 (which is conceived of as the end of the world, leaving another mere 107 years of history to come!). The second part features a chronicle of the "Rule of the Ottoman Porte", from Sultan Osman to Suleyman II. - Numerous pages of plates (each page containing two copper engravings) depict costumes, animals and plants, maps and views of towns (Sultan Osman, the Ottoman Residence and a view of Constantinople, dolphins and cranes, Turkish ladies in their various garments, a cypress and a mastix tree, etc.). - The number of plates, and indeed even the arrangement of engravings on a single page, varies from copy to copy, but this wants 4 plates as compared to the table of plates. Well-preserved. VD 17, 12:645730N. Weller, Pseud. 439.

Chrysanthos, Metropolitan of Durazzo, Brusa, and Smyrna.
[Proskynetarion tes hagias poleos Hierousalem kai pases Palaistines]. Vienna, Johanna Schrämbl, 1807.
Folio (215 x 328 mm). (4), 104 pp. With engraved frontispiece and 51 leaves of plates (8 double-page-sized or folded). Near-contemporary red half morocco with gilt rules and marbled covers, spine richly gilt (loss of label). Marbled endpapers. All edges gilt. Rare description of the Holy City of Jerusalem and of the whole of Palestine; a reissue (with changed title) of the edition published by Josef Baumeister in Vienna in 1787. Previous editions had appeared in Venice in 1728, then in 1749 and 1781, while the 1787 edition boasted "a new text and different iconography" (Staikos). This latter edition is here reproduced largely unchanged save for bringing the name of the Patriarch of Jerusalem up to date (from Abraham to Anthimus), as well as that of the editor, Apostolas Boras, on the title page. "The engraving of the Patriarch on his throne is unchanged except for the name; it is signed (in Greek): 'engraved by Schindelmayer in Vienna' [...] A large-sized, impressive book" (Staikos). "A portrait of the Patriarch [Anthimus] forms the frontispiece; also, there is an illustration of the Palace of David, and a plan of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, though the view of its cross-section is quite haphazard [...] The author expands on Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Hebron, and the sacred sites of Galilee. The text is apparently more or less that of the Venice 1728 edition; apart from that, it is generously interspersed with highly appealing illustrations in the true taste of modern Greece" (cf. Tobler 135). The Viennese publisher and printer Franz Anton Schrämbl, whose company was continued by his widow Johanna after his death in 1804, specialised in reprints (often of large sets), maps, and books in Greek. Their production was one of the strongest in Vienna (cf. Frank/Frimmel, Buchwesen in Wien, p. 175f.). - Extremeties bumped; spine-ends chipped. Still a beautiful volume from the library of King George III of the United Kingdom (1738-1820) with his royal cypher on the spine. Staikos no. 28 (note p. 94). OCLC 41651327. Cf. Röhricht 1362, 1515. Tobler 124f., 135. Legrand (XVIII) 1208.

Churchill, Awnsham & John.
A Collection of Voyages and Travels, Some Now First Printed from Original Manuscripts. London, Henry Lintot & John Osborne, by assignment from Messrs. Churchill, 1744-1746.
Folio (245 x 362 mm). 6 vols. (12), LXXII, (4), 668, (1) pp. (4), 743, (1) pp. 793, (1) pp. (2), IV, 5-780 pp. (4), 708 pp. 824, (104) pp. Title printed in red and black. With 187 engraved plates (many folding) and 9 engravings in the text (showing maps, plans, views, costumes, flora, fauna, scenes, portraits etc., including 2 bound as frontispieces), as well as numerous woodcuts in the text (showing arms, seals, devices, coastal views, details, machinery etc.). Uniform full calf with red labels to spine (gilding oxydized). Third and best edition of this important and profusely illustrated collection of travel reports, compiled by the brothers Awnsham and John Churchill, based on Hakluyt and Purchas. It includes the accounts of Martin Baumgarten (Egypt, Arabia, Palestine, Syria), Thomas Roe, Philipp Balde and Johan Nieuhoff (East Indies, including a detailed account of the north-eastern coast of Arabia, with a description of pearl fishing in Bahrain and mentioning Julfar, Qatar, Sir Bani Yas, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras al-Khaimah, Amalgavine, and other places of interest along the coastline), J. Gemelli Careri (Turkey, Persia, India), Nicholas Rolamb (Constantinople), John Barbot (West Africa, with a chapter on "Mahomet and his Alcoran"), as well as of Yemen and various journeys to China, Korea, Greenland, Iceland, Africa, North and South America (including Columbus). - "This is a very valuable collection, both for its range of coverage and for the fact that it gives the original accounts [...] The third edition is considered to be best because of its greater inclusiveness and its copious index" (Hill). Two further volumes were issued separately in 1745, republished in 1752. - The count of the illustrations is notoriously complicated: the "List of the Copper Plates" counts 305 illustrations and maps, of which as many as four are placed on a single plate, and some are placed within the text. Compared to this list, the present set lacks 52 illustrations, or ca. 20 plates, whereas the first volume contains 5 additional plates not called for in the List. Three of the maps (Africa, Asia, America) which the List announces for the first volume are in fact bound in volumes IV-VI. The introduction, a "History of Navigation from its Original to this time", is likely one of the final works of the philosopher John Locke, whose publisher and financial manager Awnsham Churchill had been (while the attribution has been called into question, the text was included in Locke's Complete Works). - Provenance: Byrdie McNeill, Mt. Edgecumbe, Alaska (her stamps). Bindings professionally repaired. Some browning; some edge defects, tears and paper flaws, but generally well-preserved. Cox, I, 10. Hill 295. Sabin 13017.

Small folio. 196 pp. Contemporary half calf. Marbled endpapers. First edition of this study of ancient Babylonian sources in Arabic translations. The Russian orientalist Daniel Abramovich Chwolson (1819-1911) was appointed extraordinary professor of Oriental languages in St Petersburg in 1855. In 1856 the Imperial Academy issued, at its own expense, Chwolson's first work, which established its author an an authority in the field of oriental research, the two-volume "Die Ssabier und der Ssabismus"; three years later Chwolson published the present "Über die Überreste der Altbabylonischen Literatur in arabischen Uebersetzungen" (also in Russian, in "The Russian Messenger", as "Novootkrytie Pamyatniki"). This work made a great sensation among scholars by the importance of its discoveries and by Chwolson's theories concerning the old Babylonian monuments. (= Sur les débris de l'ancienne littérature babylonienne, conservés dans des traductions arabes. Mémoires présentés à l'Académie impériale des sciences de Saint-Pétersbourg par divers savants, 6e série, VIII).

Clark Victoria
The Far-Farers: A Journey from Viking Iceland to Crusader Jerusalem
New York: Walker and Company 2003. First Edition. 8vo. Cloth binding 400 pp. Just before the year 1000 a young Viking named Thorvald turned his back on the pagan gods of his fathers to preach the Christian gospel. But his Icelandic countrymen mocked and outlawed him. Abandoning his homeland Thorvald embarked on an epic journey to the heart of all medieval world maps -- Jerusalem. A thousand years later Victoria Clark embarked on the same journey to discover to what extent the dramatic changes and conflicts sweeping Western Europe a millennium ago still resonate today. The Far-Farers is both the story of this twenty-first-century journey and a history of eleventh-century western Christendom. In this remarkable book Clark illuminates a group of influential eleventh-century characters -- Thorvald emperors of eastern and western Christendom abbots saints princesses Crusaders -- who form links in a historical chain extending down the century and all the way from Iceland to the Holy Land. Western Europe was struggling to unite then expanding rapidly and changing utterly. Warfare peacekeeping multinational monasticism institutional power struggles mass pilgrim travel and rising religious fundamentalism were a few salient characteristics of this world -- a world more like our own than we might imagine.

Clark Victoria
The Far-Farers: A Journey from Viking Iceland to Crusader Jerusalem
New York: Walker and Company 2003. First Edition. 8vo. Cloth binding 400 pp. Just before the year 1000 a young Viking named Thorvald turned his back on the pagan gods of his fathers to preach the Christian gospel. But his Icelandic countrymen mocked and outlawed him. Abandoning his homeland Thorvald embarked on an epic journey to the heart of all medieval world maps -- Jerusalem. A thousand years later Victoria Clark embarked on the same journey to discover to what extent the dramatic changes and conflicts sweeping Western Europe a millennium ago still resonate today. The Far-Farers is both the story of this twenty-first-century journey and a history of eleventh-century western Christendom. In this remarkable book Clark illuminates a group of influential eleventh-century characters -- Thorvald emperors of eastern and western Christendom abbots saints princesses Crusaders -- who form links in a historical chain extending down the century and all the way from Iceland to the Holy Land. Western Europe was struggling to unite then expanding rapidly and changing utterly. Warfare peacekeeping multinational monasticism institutional power struggles mass pilgrim travel and rising religious fundamentalism were a few salient characteristics of this world -- a world more like our own than we might imagine. The twenty-first-century people Clark encountered as she traveled through Iceland central and Western Europe the Balkans Turkey and the Middle East cast fresh light on both worlds. In the ancient capital of Poland a young Catholic priest scorns the idea of Europe uniting in the name of human rights instead of Christ. At the Crusader stronghold of Krak les Chevaliers a Syrian playboy highlights the deep and widening gulf between the West and Islam.
