[Kannada language].
Village dialogues in Canarese, designed to illustrate the modes of thought and expression, in various classes of native society. Bangalore, Wesleyan Mission Press, 1847.
12mo. IV, 106 pp. English advertisement/preface, dialogues in Kannada script. Contemporary half green cloth with patterned glazed boards. First edition. The inscription reads, "Presented to the library of the Wesleyan Theological Institution, Richmond [/] J Gault(?) [/] Bangalore Jan 1848". This is most likely the same "J. G." who contributes the preface, in which he explains that the dialogues were written by a Munshi, who had been asked to teach Rev. W. Arthur (author of "A Mission to Mysore", London, 1847) the language of the local working people. The Munshi's efforts were then enlarged and distributed in manuscript form among several missionaries working in the area. They were found to be of such use that a small edition of the present book was printed. - Boards slightly dust-soiled, very minor wear to extremities, old paper library labels to spine, otherwise very good. Two bookplates (one pasted over the other) on the front paste-down endpaper, of the Wesleyan Theological Institution and Richmond College, Surrey. Presentation inscription to recto of front free endpaper, this torn with a small area of loss. - Scarce. COPAC locates two holdings, at SOAS and Oxford. OCLC adds another at the National and University Library of Strasbourg.

[Keying].
A Description of the Chinese Junk "Keying". London, J. Such, Printer, 25 Budge Row, Watling Street, City, 1848.
8vo. 31, (1) pp. With frontispiece and 4 plates with wood engravings, of which one signed [Ebenezer] "Landells", as well as 8 text illustrations. Thread-stitched in original pale orange wrappers with decorative title printing in red and green. Printed for the proprietors of the junk and sold only on board. Exhibition catalogue for the Chinese trade junk "Keying", at anchor for visitors against admission in the London Docklands in 1848. Personalised copy of the Swedish visitor Carl Peter Freidenfeldt, with autograph of and stamped by the Mandarin on board, He Sing. - The "Keying", an impressive 3-masted 800-ton sailing ship, was the first Chinese vessel ever to sail from Hong Kong to New York and further to London. The junk had been purchased in 1846 in secrecy by unknown British businessmen in Hong Kong, defying a Chinese law prohibiting the sale of Chinese ships to foreigners. Loaded with artefacts and oddities of Chinese culture and sailing with a mixed crew of Chinese and British sailors under the command of Captain Charles Alfred Kellett, the "Keying" reached New York in July 1847 and fast became an attraction serving as a kind of floating ethnographic museum. - In late March 1848, the "Keying" arrived in London to great fanfare, anchoring in the London Docklands, at Blackwall. Several different medals were struck to commemorate its appearance, including one that had a bust of Mandarin Hesing. The ship was visited by Queen Victoria, whose right to be the first European woman to visit it was reserved, as well as by the Duke of Wellington and Charles Dickens. It has been suggested that the Chinese Emperor was aware of the project from the start and was secretly kept informed about it, and that the mandarin served as an informer to report back in detail. Visitors were "received by a Mandarin of Rank and a Chinese Artist of Celebrity" (promotional text on rear cover). - Apart from the description of the ship as a whole, the cook-house and the decks, the present catalogue also contains an annotated and partly illustrated list of Chinese objects (musical instruments, weapons, tableware etc.) exhibited in different parts of the ship. - The wood-engraved plates are captioned "The Keying", "Portrait of Hesing", "Stern of the Keying", "After Deck", and "Saloon". - Ink ownership of "C[arl] P[eter] Freidenfelt, London den 15 Aug. 1848", at the upper edge of front cover. Front flyleaf (recto of 1st plate) with two red ink stamps depicting Chinese characters, one of them being the seal of Prince Hui Rui. Above and below the signature "Hesing" and the word "Keying" in Latin and Chinese letters written in bold ink; at top and bottom of the page a tiny ink comment in Swedish by Freidenfelt: "Anm: Nedanstående är måladt med pensel af den Chinesiske mandarinen Hesing ombord på den Chinesiska Junken den 15 Aug. 1848 på Londons redd. Då jag besökte Mandarinen, fann jag honom läsande Nya Test. på Chinesiska. Han sade på engelska 'a very good book; makes good for the heart.' (Note: The following is painted with a brush by the Chinese mandarin Hesing aboard the Chinese Junk on Aug. 15th 1848 at London's docks. When I visited the Mandarin, I found him reading New Testament in Chinese. He said in English 'a very good book; makes good for the heart'". - An 8 mm tear to rear cover professionally repaired. Wrappers slightly worn with some minor stains, otherwise a well preserved copy.

[LA MORLIERE (Jacques ROCHETTE de)]
Angola. Histoire indienne. Ouvrage sans vrai-semblance.
2 volumes in-12, plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos à 5 nerfs ornés de caissons fleuronnés et cloisonnés, tranches rouges, (2), 20, (6), 162 p. et (4), 199 p. Edition originale du premier ouvrage de l’auteur, qui obtint un très grand succès et le fit connaître. Il dédie "Aux petites maîtresses (...), ce livre (…); qu'il parvienne en vos mains à votre réveil, après une nuit passée voluptueusement entre les bras d'un amant chéri". Sous la forme d'un roman libertin, récit d'une éducation sentimentale dont l'action se situe dans un univers féerique subverti, subterfuge qui permet à La Morlière de livrer une critique des moeurs de la cour de Louis XV. "Tout le mérite 'd'Angola' est dans le talent du peintre des moeurs qui l'a composé. Grâce aux dons qui lui permirent de saisir en un sérieux document la physionomie de son époque, La Morlière surpasse tous ses contemporains (...). Il met en oeuvre toutes les ressources magiques révélées par les contes orientaux" (Dufrenoy, 'L'orient romanesque', p. 88-91). Issu d’une famille de légistes de Grenoble réputée depuis le XVIe siècle, le chevalier de La Morlière (1719-1785) mena de front une carrière d’auteur à succès et d’aventurier. Entremetteur, tricheur, escroc, faussaire, maître chanteur, il fit plusieurs séjours en prison. (BnF, 'Utopies', bibliographie en ligne. Hartig & Soboul, p. 50. Pia, 'Dictionnaire des oeuvres érotiques', p. 30-31. Valette, 'Utopie', n° 182). Ex-libris gravé et armorié d’Alfred Petit. Deux feuillets tachés à la cire de bougie au tome II. Mors très légèrement fendillés. Très bon exemplaire, très frais, bien relié à l’époque.

In-12 (170 x 110 mm), demi-chagrin acajou de l’époque, dos lisse orné de filets gras à froid soulignés de doubles filets, titre doré, (2), 229, (1) p. Edition originale de cet ouvrage prophétique, relation d'un songe fait sous l'emprise du haschich qui transporte l'auteur en 1943. "Il raconte les faits nouveaux survenus depuis cent ans. Et ceux-ci sont nombreux: citons la substitution de l'électricité au charbon, la propulsion des bateaux par hélices, le percement du canal de Suez et de Panama, les tunnels sous les Alpes et les Pyrénées, la prééminence des États-Unis sur l'Angleterre, la perte, par celle-ci, de l'Inde et des deux Canada, la confédération des pays latins d'Europe, l'union monétaire, etc." (cf. Louis Dulieu in Rev. Hist. Sci., 1975, XXVIH/2, p. 136-137). Mais aussi: la Révolution de 1848, ce qui valut à l'ouvrage un regain de popularité lors de cet événement, l’émancipation des femmes, les moyens de transport mus à l'électricité… Originaire de Metz, élève de Dupuytren, de Bichat et Broussais, C.-Fr. Lallemand devint chirurgien et professeur de médecine aux facultés de Paris et de Montpellier. Disciple de Pierre Leroux, il fut destitué de sa chaire en raison de son engagement aux côtés des républicains radicaux sous la monarchie de Juillet. (Cf. Maitron CD-Rom. Morel, ‘Dict. biogr. de la psychiatrie’, p. 149). Le faux-titre n'a pas été conservé. Quelques rousseurs sporadiques. Très bon exemplaire, bien relié à l'époque.
