‎[LOCKE (John)].‎

‎Histoire de la navigation, son commencement, son progrès et ses découvertes jusquà présent. Le commerce des Indes occidentales.‎

‎Paris, Étienne Ganeau, 1722. 1722 2 vol. in-12° (163 x 102 mm) de: I. [6] ff. (titre, préface, approbation, privilège); 378 pp.; [3] ff. (table); II. [4] ff. (titre, table); 316 pp. Plein veau granité dépoque, dos à nerfs orné, titres et tomaisons de maroquin rouge, filet à froid encadrant les plats, roulette dorée sur les coupes, tranches jaspées de rouge. (Rares rousseurs ou tâches).‎

‎Première édition en français de cet ouvrage peu commun traduit de langlais sur la base du travail de John Locke (1632-1704). Célèbre philosophe anglais, John Locke est une des figures importantes du rationalisme. Opposé à l'absolutisme en Angleterre et proche du comte de Shaftesbury Anthony Ashley-Cooper (1621-1683), il contribue aux théories naissantes du contrat social, de la loi et du droit naturel, ainsi quà létat de nature. Bien plus tard, à partir du XIXe siècle, on le considérera comme lun des précurseurs du libéralisme. Le premier tome du présent ouvrage traite de : « Histoire de la Navigation, son commencement, ses progrès et ses découvertes jusquà présent ». Dans cette partie, lauteur dresse un tableau global de lhistoire de la navigation remontant jusquaux premiers bateaux ayant entrepris des traversées périlleuses. Le second tome, quant à lui, se concentre sur : « Histoire de la Navigation, le Commerce avec les Indes Occidentales ». Dans cette partie, John Locke aborde majoritairement la découverte des Indes occidentales par Christophe Colomb et les voyages successifs qui lon suivit. Ainsi, il y est question des îles de Cuba, de Curaçao, de Martinique, de Guadeloupe, de Grenade ou encore de Saint-Vincent ainsi que des activités des espagnols, français anglais et hollandais dans ces îles. Enfin, les pp. 177 à 316 comportent : « Un Catalogue des meilleures Cartes Géographiques et des meilleurs Livres de Voyages, et le caractère de leurs auteurs ». Provenance : Jean-Claude Dezauche (1745-1824), ingénieur-géographe, graveur, éditeur et marchand de cartes. (ex-libris gravé au dos des premiers plats). Bel Exemplaire bien conservé. 2 vol. 12mo (163 x 102 mm) of : I. [6] ff. (title, preface, approval, privilege) ; 378 pp. ; [3] ff. (table) ; II. [4] ff. (title, table) ; 316 pp. Full contemporary calf, spine ribbed and decorated, titles and endpapers in red morocco, cold fillet framing the boards, gilt roulette on the edges, edges spotted with red. (Some foxing or stains). First edition in French of this unusual work translated from English and base on the work of John Locke (1632-1704). Famous English philosopher, John Locke is one of the important figures of rationalism. Opposed to absolutism in England and close to the Earl of Shaftesbury, Anthony Ashley-Cooper (1621-1683), he contributed to the emerging theories of social contract, law and natural law, and the state of nature. Much later, from the 19th century on, he was considered one of the precursors of liberalism. The first volume of the present work deals with: "History of Navigation, its beginning, its progress and discoveries until now" (translated from French). In this part, the author talks about the history of navigation as a whole going back to the first ships that undertook perilous crossings. The second volume focuses on: "History of Navigation, Commerce with the West Indies" (translated from French). In this part, John Locke deals mainly with the discovery of the West Indies by Christopher Columbus and the successive voyages that followed. Thus, the islands of Cuba, Curacao, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Grenada and St. Vincent are discussed, as well as the activities of the Spanish, French, English and Dutch in these islands. Finally, pp. 177-316 include: "A Catalogue of the best Geographical Maps and Travel Books, and the character of their authors" (translated from French). Provenance: Jean-Claude Dezauche (1745-1824), engineer-geographer, engraver, publisher and map dealer. (ex-libris engraved on the back of the first plates). Beautiful and well preserved copy.‎

‎Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original color map. Elephant folio. (59x75 cm). In Ottoman script. [OTTOMAN MILITARY MAP of PATAGONIA and FALKLAND ISLANDS: ROUTE of DRESDEN] Alman kruvazörü Dresden'in takîbi ve tahrîbi. SMS Dresden cruiser's routes between 1913-1915 (World War 1) on the Patagonian shelf; western shores of South America, Patagonia and Falkland Islands. Dresden spent much of her career overseas. After commissioning, she visited the United States in 1909 during the Hudson-Fulton Celebration, before returning to Germany to serve in the reconnaissance force of the High Seas Fleet for three years. In 1913, she was assigned to the Mediterranean Division. She was then sent to the Caribbean to protect German nationals during the Mexican Revolution. In mid-1914, she carried the former dictator Victoriano Huerta to Jamaica, where the British had granted him asylum. She was due to return to Germany in July 1914, but was prevented by the outbreak of World War I from doing so. At the onset of hostilities, Dresden operated as a commerce raider in South American waters in the Atlantic, then moved to the Pacific Ocean in September and joined Maximilian von Spee's East Asia Squadron. Dresden saw action in the Battle of Coronel in November, where she engaged the British cruiser HMS Glasgow, and at the Battle of the Falkland Islands in December, where she was the only German warship to escape destruction. She eluded her British pursuers for several more months, until she put into Robinson Crusoe Island in March 1915. Her engines were worn out and she had almost no coal left for her boilers, so the ship's captain contacted the local Chilean authorities to have Dresden interned. She was trapped by British cruisers, including her old opponent Glasgow. The British violated Chilean neutrality and opened fire on the ship in the Battle of Más a Tierra. The Germans scuttled Dresden and the majority of the crew escaped to be interned in Chile for the duration of the war. The wreck remains in the harbor; several artifacts, including her bell and compass, have been returned to Germany.‎
