Buck, A. (Adriaan) de.
De Egyptische voorstellingen betreffende den oerheuvel. Proefschrift ter verkrijging van den graad van Doctor. [DE BUCK'S ORIGINAL DOCTORAL THESIS ON THE PRIMEVAL HILL].
Quarto. Pp. (v), 104. Text figures. Lithographed entirely from the manuscript. Original publisher's stiff wrappers, trifle frayed at head of spine. In a very good condition, fine interior. ~ First edition. Extremely rare original copy of De Buck's doctoral thesis, presented to Leiden University on July 6, 1922. Published privately by the now long defunct Leiden printers firm of IJdo, De Buck's historical manuscript is lithographed in its entirety. Includes the now practically extinct original 8-point Thesis Statement, a 4-page sheet with title-page. Adriaan de Buck (1892-1959) studied Egyptology under Sethe, Erman and Möller to become later one of the foremost Egyptologists of his time. In 1922 he gained a theological doctorate at the University of Leiden, for which he wrote a thesis on the Primeval Hill as a concept in Egyptian religion, "a work which has exercised a profound influence on all later studies on the Heliopolitan theology". (Dawson & Uphill). In 1925 he was asked by Gardiner and Breasted to edit an extensive and fully comprehensive edition of the Coffin Texts to be published by the Oriental Institute of Chicago. At the time of his death seven great volumes of texts had appeared, and part of his other great work of translating and commenting on them had also been completed, "an achievement rarely equalled by one individual in the field of Egyptology". A classic book of utmost rarity, a landmark in the history of Egyptology. [Provenance:] From the library of renowned Egyptologist Prof. Dr. Joris Frans Borghouts (1939-2018) who had acquired at the time several of De Buck's books.

Hardcover, bound in the original publisher's full cloth, large decoration embossed on cover in gilt, gilt spine; cloth coating very superficially rubbed in places on cover. In excellent condition, mint interior. A splendid copy, seldom found in such condition. ~ First edition. An outstanding production. Collotype is one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes. Highly skilled and expensive process, it cannot produce more than a limited number of impressions. It has been used for single-sheet prints and luxury portfolios, and since the 1950s has been abandoned by all except a few small specialist firms. Coloured collotypes the size of the plates here (image size up to ca. 50x110 cm) are very rare indeed in book production, so much so in such superb quality. Sir Alan Henderson Gardiner (1879-1963); Amice Mary Calverley (1896-1959); Myrtle Florence Broome (1888-1978). Beinlich-Seeber 8402.
