the Microscope
Drops of Water; Their Marvellous and Beautiful Inhabitants Displayed by the Microscope
ont> Reeve and Benham : London 1851 Book. Very Good. Hardcover. First edition. A very scarce work on the inhabitants of water droplets through a microscope. Last seen at auction in 1999 this delightful work of microscopy was one of the first books published that sparked a Victorian obsession with these 'worlds unseen' in the 1850s. Agnes Catlow was a popular science writer known most notably for her work in the field of conchology and produced this book to be more accessible to those beginners with microscopes than more scientific and less genial academic works. First edition. With four coloured plates collated complete. In Catlow's words a 'spirit named Science' opens the door to 'a medium different from our atmosphere' that any readers might find by looking down a microscope or else into this book. Condition: In the publisher's original cloth binding with gilt stamped decoration to the front board. Externally generally smart with some shelfwear to the head and tail of the spine joints and extremities. Internally generally firmly bound slightly tender in places. Pages are generally bright and clean. Overall Condition: Very Good. ont> Reeve and Benham : London hardcover

TORTONI, Carlo Antonio.
Lettera Scritta, e Dedicata a D. Girolamo Ambrogio de Langmantel … Nella quale si accennano le prerogative del detto Microscopio e sua composizione, con molte sperienze fatte, con la dimostrazione della figura parabolica, e con alcuni disegni de gl'ingrandimenti, che porta il medesimo.
in-4, pp. 12, compreso il frontespizio con vignetta xilogr.; raffinata legatura d'amatore in m. marocchino, il dorso interamente decorato ai piccoli ferri, il titolo e le note tipografiche perfettamente dorate in carattere finissimo. Rarissima edizione, forse la prima relativa al microscopio. Tortoni è considerato l'inventore dello strumento, piuttosto che l'inglese Joseph Wilson. Secondo Clay and Court per primo presentò all'Accademia fisico-matematica Romana "on August 5, 1685. The tube was 2 inches long and 2 scruples radius. It was composed of five parts, each joined by a screw to the succeeding part, and it could be divided into a microscope and an eyeglass". La sua descrizione apparve lo stesso anno negli ''Acta Eruditorum Lipsiae'', attribuendo al Tortoni una meritata fama. Il Giornale dei Letterati per tutto l'anno MDCLXXXVI, p. 117 menziona "… come viene accennato dal signor Tortoni al sig. Langmantel stampata l'anno 1686". Il frontespizio di questa prima descrizione separata porta la data del 1686, e la lettera fu rilasciata da Roma, il 7 dicembre 1686 come risposta tardiva ad una lettera inviata da Langmantel il 12 aprile. Questa lettera di 12 pagine uscì l'anno prima delle 6 fogli delle Due Sorti di Microscopi Tortoniani edita dallo stesso Komarek con due tavole nel 1687. Buon esemplare, probabilmente mancante di una delle due tavole che vennero ripubblicate l'anno successivo. . Non in Riccardi; Clay and Court, The History of the Microscope, pp. 41-42 and 79..
