Small tear in the innermargin of the second and third leaf. Else a fine copy Note: This edition contains 7 texts 5 of them devoted to the catching nursing and training and the health of birds of prey such as hawks and falcons for the hunting of small game and 2 texts devoted to hunting-dogs. They were collected and edited by the French classical scholar Nicolaus Rigaltius or Nicolas Rigault 1577-1654 who was employed in the Biblioth�que Royale from 1604. The first part p. 1-278 contains a Greek corpus of 3 treatises from 2 manuscripts in the Biblioth�que Royale. All 3 are attributed to the Byzantine scholar and perhaps court physician of the emperor Michael VIII Palaeologus Demetrius Pepagomenus Constantinopolitanus 1200-1300 since they all have the name of Demetrius Constantinopolitanus at the commencement. The first 2 treatises are 'editiones principes' they are on hawks accipitres in Latin hierakes in Greek. A Latin translation of these 2 treatises was published previously by the French scholar Pierre Gilles Lyons 1562 1565 with the 'Historia Animalium' of Aelianus. � 'The treatise commences by teaching how and when hawks are to be caught; how to choose one; how to distinguish the different kinds; how to tell whether a hawk is sick or in good health; how to tame and train them; and concludes by an enumeration of the various diseases to which hawks are supposed to be liable with the remedies prescribed. These recipes were apparently copied from older MSS. for the author in his first chapter states that not a few wise men had already written on this part of the subject. The details which he gives of the methods of catching and training hawks in Greece in his day the middle of the thirteenth century are interesting as showing the antiquity of some of the practices well known to modern falconers. The capture of the birds was effected from a hut in which the falconer was concealed and from which he let out decoy pigeons on taking which the hawks themselves were seized. Another plan was for the falconer to extend himself at full length upon the ground covering himself with grass and fluttering a pigeon to attract the hawk which he grasped by the legs as soon as the pigeon was taken. Hawks were also captured by pegging down a live pigeon in the midst of limed twigs or in a net suspended from a tree in front of which was tethered a live fowl or pigeon. As soon as taken the hawk was enveloped in a linen 'sock' . and kept thus for a day or two until the taming commenced. It was then placed in a dark room on a perch to which it was attached by jesses and the perch had a linen curtain depending from it as at the present day. . The principles of training were the same then as now but it seems that the hawks were only flown from the hand and were not put upon the wing before the game was sprung. They were flown at partridges pheasants and wild-ducks the falconer running quickly towards the quarry and putting it up with a shout or in the case of wild fowl by beating a drum. In the latter case says the author the hawk did not carry bells. Each hawk was flown three or four times a day. It is remarkable that no mention is made of the hood which was first introduced into Europe by Frederick II who had learnt its use from Arab falconers when in the East. On the other hand the use of the curtain was known to the Greek falconer'. Harting no 327 � In the third treatise 'On hunting-dogs' the 'Cunosophion' Pepagomenos drew on Arrian's 'Cynegeticus'. It was published and translated into Latin by the German Andreas Aurifaber Goldschmidt Wittenberg 1545. A. Diller 'Demetrius Pepagomenus' in 'Byzantion' vol. 48 no. 1 1978 p. 35-42 These 3 works of Pepagomenus are among the principal monuments which remains of the technical literature in Greek devoted to the use and care of birds and hounds and are an important source of information about language methods and the practioneers of a branch of the veterinary art. It provides evidence of popular beliefs and was in the Middle Ages and Renaissance viewed as object of antiquarian interest but also as a source of practical advice. These 3 Byzantine texts were published by Rigault from a manuscript in the Royal Library at Paris. � The first 182 pages of the second part are filled with the above mentioned Latin translations of Gilles and Goldschmidt. � The pages 183-211 contain a Catalan translation of a letter that was supposed to have been written by the Jewish Hellenistic scholars and Old Testament translators Symmachus Aquila of Sinope and Theodotion to king Ptolemaeus of Egypt 'Lo libre dell nudriment he de la cura dels ocels los quals sepert�ye ha cassa'. Rigault added this peculiar Catalan translation because 'haud pauca contineat rei accipitrariae praecepta utilia'. p. � verso The original Latin manuscript has been lost and the treatise is now only known through the version in 'lingua Catalanica' printed here by Rigault. Harting no. 223 � The third and last part begins with a Neolatin poem in hexameters on falconry written by Jacques-Auguste de Thou 1553-1617 the superior of Rigault at the Royal Library. The author historian and politician De Thou first published this poem the 'Hieracosophion sive De Re Accipitraria Libri Tres' in Paris in 1584. He wrote it after a trip with his friend Pierre Pithou through the Languedoc and Provence where they witnessed hunting with trained birds of prey. See Harting no. 306 Rigault added also another short hexametric poem of De Thou 'Somnium' which he dedicated to Philippe Hurault Comte de Cheverny his brother in law. It was first published in Paris in 1587 when Hurault was chancellor of France 1583- 1588. It has nothing to do with birds or dogs. � At the end p. 114/120 we find a hexametric poem on the training of dogs for the hunt of the famous Italian Renaissance poet Girolamo Fracastoro latinized as Hieronymus Fracastorius 1476/1478-1553 'Alcon sive de cura canum venaticorum' 'Alcon or: how to take care of dogs for the hunt'. Hunting with dogs was Fracastoro�s favorite pastime Provenance: Bookplate of 'the Library of St. Benedict's Abbey Fort Augustus Scotland'. Below this a small shelf label.

Bryce, Higbee and J.B. Higbee Glass
208 pages. Profusely illustrated with black and white illustrations and line drawings plus a generous number of colour plates. Index. Bibliography. "This book is really about Higbee glass. It will attempt to clear up the misunderstandings surrounding the different Bryce Brothers (1850-1965) and Bryce, Higbee (1879-1918) glass companies. Its main emphasis lies with the pressed glass patterns manufactured from 1879 to 1918 by Bryce, Higbee & Company and the J.B. Higbee Glass Company. However, it also provides family history for the Bryce and Higbee clans, as well as an overview of all Bryce factories and Higbee factories, and the probable links between them." - from Introduction. Somewhat above-average wear with usual library markings. A worthy reference copy of this comprehensive and interesting reference. Book

Black Morocco Spine And Tips Gilt Over Ribbed Cloth. Light Yellow Endpapers No Names Or Marks. Near Fine Contents Immaculate And Crisp.This Volume With Small Engraved Plates Tipped In Apparently 18Th Century All With Similar Format And Apparently Extracted From Another Book Including Portraits Of 13 Turkish Rulers Also One Of Scanderbeg Referencing Vol. 1 P. 163 Of An Unidentified Work And Another Of Tamerlane Referencing Vol. 1 P. 138 Otherwise Plates Have Just Portrait Busts And Their Names Titles And Dates Of Accession. Godfrey Higgins 1772-1833 Was An English Magistrate And Landowner Who Was A Prominent Advocate For Social Reform. He Was Also A Keen Antiquarian. He Is Now Best Known For His Writings On Ancient Myths In Which He Asserts A Commonality Among Various Religious Myths Which He Traces Back To The Supposed Lost Religion Of Atlantis. He Has Been Called A "Political Radical Reforming County Magistrate And Idiosyncratic Historian Of Religions". Higgins' Work As A Magistrate Was Highlighted By Reformist Campaigns Within Which He "Courageously Exposed The Scandalous Treatment Of Pauper Lunatics And Campaigned For Parliamentary Reform Criticizing Excessive Taxation The Corn Laws And The Exploitation Of Children In Factories. In 1814 He Played A Leading Role In Uncovering The Abuse Of Patients At The York Lunatic Asylum After Rumors Of Serious Misconduct Had Come To His Attention. Higgins Was Appointed As A Governor Of The Asylum. In Anacalypsis Higgins Asserts A Commonality Among Various Religious Myths. "One Thing Is Clear-The Mythos Of The Hindus The Mythos Of The Jews And The Mythos Of The Greeks Are All At Bottom The Same; And What Are Called Their Early Histories Are Not Histories Of Humankind But Are Contrivances Under The Appearance Of Histories To Perpetuate Doctrines." Higgins Bluntly Declares That Every Ancient Author Without Exception Has Come To Us Through The Medium Of Christian Editors Who Have "Either From Roguery Or Folly Corrupted Them All.". "Osiris And His Bull Were Black; All The Gods And Goddesses Of Greece Were Black: At Least This Was The Case With Jupiter Bacchus Hercules Apollo Ammon.The Goddesses Venus Isis Hecati Diana Juno Metis Ceres Cybile Are Black. " . "There Seems To Be Nothing Improbable In These Ethiopians Being The Tribe Of The Jews-The Tribe Of Jacob Or Israel. I Think These Ethiopians Did Come Under Jacob And Did Settle In Goshen And Gave The Names Of Maturea And Avaris To The City In Which They Dwelt." ."Solomon Was A Personification Or Incarnation Of Wisdom And The Jews Of Asia Minor Were A Tribe Or Colony From India Of Black Buddhists At Or About The Same Time With The Ioudi To SyriaUnder The Brahmin."."Theseus Bacchus �sculapius &C. Were Saviours And Black Saviours Too. These Black Icons Were Made When Man Himself Was Black. He Made His God After Himself And Then Said That Man Was Made After The Image Of God. <br/> <br/> Rowland Hunter hardcover
