He became a preacher and missionary during the plague in 1630 then retired to a convent. Father Casimir de Toulouse wrote this edifying life in the name of Christianity and placed this biography within a broader design that of the power of faith and Christian principles over nobility and earthly power. unknown

Jacobi Perisonii Ant. F. Animadversiones historicae in quibus quamplurima in priscis Romanarum rerum sed utriusque Linguae autoribus notantur multa etiam illustrantur atque emendantur varia denique antiquorum rituum eruunter & uberius explicantur.
Amsterdam Amstelaedami Ex officina Henrici & Viduae Theodori Boom 1685. 8vo. XXXII47016 index2 blank p. Vellum 16.5 cm A masterpiece of historical criticism. Sandys Details: Woodcut printer's mark on the title it depicts a gardener who waters a shoot that arises from a tree Boom is Dutch for tree; the motto reads: 'Tandem fit surculus arbor' A shoot at length becomes a tree a popular motto in the Netherlands ever since the war of independence against the Spaniards which lasted 80-years Condition: The spine was problably once exposed to a fire it is blackish and the gilt is almost invisible; part of the shield pasted on the spine. Head of the spine is gone. Both boards age-toned and somewhat soiled. Faint ownership entry on the title. Title slightly soiled. Paper slightly yellowing Note: The historian of classical scholarship J.E. Sandys observes that this collections of 'Animadversiones' of Jacobus Perizonius is recognised as a masterpiece of historical criticism and as an anticipation of Niebuhr's method of dealing with the early history of Rome. J.E. Sandys 'A history of classical scholarship' New York 1964 volume 2 p. 331 Jacob Perizonius 1651-1715 is the Grecian form of the Dutch name Voorbroek. He was from 1682 professor of History at the University of Franeker and from 1693 of Leiden. His 'Animadversiones historicae' of 1685 made his name. The basic principle of Perizonius is simply that human knowledge is limited and liable to error. This idea he applies to ancient authors. Scribes of later centuries are not always to be blamed for the mistakes and contradictions in the surviving texts he argues. In this way Perizonius unmasks the ancient authors and demystifies their 'sacrosanctity'. 'Homines fuerunt veteres illi' the ancients were humans after all who erred and made mistakes; and consequently they are open to criticism. Ancient historians like Livy Sueton Florus Plutarch et alii he states regularly mix up names confuse dates and make all kind of errors. Their works do not offer indisputable thruths as many contemporaries thought. The task of the critic is to purge the ancient texts of mistakes. The principle aim of Perizonius is not to bowdlerize the style and expurgate the language but to investigate the historic contents of the texts. He tries to reconstruct Roman history investigating with a critical eye the historical data which have come down to us. The fallability of ancient historians was proven already by earlier generations of scholars that is true but historical truth can only be attained with a critical research methodology shifting through evidence and comparing the facts which passed down through the centuries. Perizonius's 'Animadversiones historicae' laid the foundations of historical criticism in modern time Provenance: On the front flyleaf: 'Bib. Theol.

Jacobi Perizonii Ant. Fil. Orationes XII varii et praestantioris argumenti in gratiam cultorum elegantiorum litterarum collectae
Leiden Lugdini Batavorum Apud Joh. Arnold Langerak 1740. 8vo. XXXVIII592 p. Vellum 17 cm Details: 5 thongs laced through the joints. Engraved printer's mark on the title it depicts a man who is busy climing a steep hill; a winged diety Father Time Tempus who sways his scythe and has an hourglass on his head helps him to ascend; at the top of the hill rests a huge cornucopia; this scene is flanked Athena and the Muse Clio whose head is winged and who has scroll and quill at hand; the motto reads: 'Dum audes ardua vinces' 'You will be succesful daring' Condition: Vellum age-toned. Both pastedowns slightly stained. Small paper label on the back Note: The Dutch ancient historian Jacobus Perizonius 1651-1715 was professor of History at the University of Franeker from 1682 and from 1693 of Leiden. His historical work broke new ground and may be said to have laid the foundations of historical criticism. It anticipates Niebuhr's method of dealing with the early history of Rome. He made his name with his 'Animadversiones historicae' 1685 which work is recognised as a masterpiece of historical criticism. 'In his 'Origines Babylonicae et Aegypticae 1711 he was the first to suggest the spuriousness of the royal list of Manetho and he defended the chronology of Scaliger'. J.E. Sandys 'A history of classical scholarship' New York 1964 volume 2 p. 331 Perizonius wrote also a learned dissertation on Dictys 1702. His merit as a philologist is demonstrated in his commentary on the 'Minerva' of Sanctius which became a standard 1687 1693 1702 1704 1714 1733 1752 1754 1789 1793 1795 & 1809 and his edition of the 'Variae Historiae' a miscellany of the late antique author Aelianus 1701. § From the dedication at the beginning of this book dated Zaltbommel 1739 we learn that F.G. Westerhovius is the editor of this collection of speeches of Jacob Perizonius 'praeceptoris quondam mei amantissimi'. Westerhovius studied probably under Perizonius at the University of Leiden where Perizonius lectured from 1693. Frederik Wilhelm Westerhovius was born in 1675 and was appointed rector of the Schola Latina at Gorichem and later still alive in 1742 Zaltbommel. Westerhovius added after the 'dedicatio' a 7 page biographical sketch Viri Clarissimi Jacobi Perizonii vita of his admired professor and a list of 12 pages Codices quos Bibliothecae legavit Clarissimus Jacobus Perizonius listing the 38 manuscripts among which one of the 10th century and 59 valuable postincunabula Perizonius bequaethed to the Library of the University of Leiden. The collection of orations opens with Perizonius's inaugural lecture held at Franeker 'De Ciceronis industria' 1682 and his inaugural lecture of Leiden 'De usu Graecae Romanaeque linguae' 1693. Follow 'De Pyrrhonismo historico' 'De doctrinae studiis nuper cultis' 'De origine et natura Imperii' 'De bello contra Gallos et Hispanos' 'De Aethere Britannis & Batavis militante' 'De facta nuper pace' 'Cum Vilhelmus & Maria coronarentur' 'Funebris Mariae Reginae' 'In obitum Abrahami Gravii' Provenance: From the library of Caspar Reuvens and with his library ticket on the spine. Caspar Jacob Christiaan Reuvens 1793-1835 was a Dutch historian and archaeologist. He was the founding director of the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden Dutch National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden the world's first ever professor of archaeology at Leiden University and conducted the first excavations at the Roman provincial site Forum Hadriani in the Netherlands'. See English Wikipedia with his portrait On the verso of the front flyleaf has been attached a small leaflet format visiting card with the text: 'Jacob Perizonius wenscht mijn geachte Buurman in de Veenlaan te 's Gravenhage een gelukzalig jaar van 1867'. On the backside of this: 'Dr. Wap en echtgenoot 1 januari 1867 met een boekgeschenk'. Perizonius is here used as the messenger of the New Year's wishes of Doctor Johannes Jacobus Franciscus Wap to one of his neighbours. The Dutchman Jan Wap 1806-1880 was in the 19th century a wellknown man of letters. The city of The Hague honoured him by naming a street after him the Jan Wapstraat. Wap was living at the time at the Veenkade number 14. The Veenkade nowadays Toussaintkade a row of houses for well to do citizens was part of the canal system singel which went round the city untill the end of the 19th century Collation: -28 34 minus leaf 34 A-2O8 leaf L5 signed M5; leaf 2H6 signed 2H5 Photographs on request hardcover
