‎A Crime of Passion‎

‎New York: Avon 1973 Book. Fine. Pbk. 1st Pbk Edition. The true story of the murder of the Duchess de Praslin in 1847 a blood thirsty and scandalous crime that rocked Paris. In the grey dawn of August 18 the Duc de Praslin bloodily murdered his Duchesse in her father's Paris 'hotel particulier'. The crime was premeditated but stupidly executed. A Paris policeman viewing the murder scene said : "This was not the work of a professional; this was the act of a gentleman." This crime - one of the events which sparked the revolution of 1848 - has been the subject of novels and articles ever since. But for half a century no-one seemed to have studied thoroughly the actual evidence and letters in the French Archives; the author was the first. We know what happened. The bloody reticule the battered candlestick the knife the rope the Duc's stained 'robe de chambre' are all visible evidence still in the Archives if one is permitted to see them. Now we can at least give an educated guess at a conundrum which has fascinated writers dramatists lawyers and laymen for more than a century. 303p. bibliography index Crisp unmarked copy.

Buona prova, impressa su due fogli di carta vergata coeva, con sottili margini, alcuni restauri perfettamente eseguiti, nel complesso in buono stato di conservazione. Esemplare con tracce di usura, probabilmente utilizzato per la navigazione in mare. Rarissimo portolano del Mediterraneo di Johannes Loots. Doppio titolo, in francese e olandese, nel cartiglio in basso a sinistra del foglio di ponente; solo titolo olandese nel cartiglio in alto a destra del foglio di levante. L’imprint del Loots è riportato in entrambi i cartigli: tot Amsterdam by Ioannes Loots Boek Zeekart Verkooper en Graadboogmaaker inde Nieuwebrugsteeg inde Ionge Lootsman.Grande carta nautica del Mediterraneo, priva di data ma pubblicata tra il 1698 e il 1707. Si basa, come correttamente enunciato nel cartiglio con il titolo in francese, sulla carta pubblicata dall’idrografo François Berthelot a Marsiglia nel 1693. Rispetto alla tavola del Berthelot, vengono introdotti numerosi riquadri, contenenti altrettanti piani nautici. Nel foglio occidentale sono rappresentati i porti di: Formentera, Majorca, Minorca, Genova, La Spezia, Livorno, Alicante, Cartagine, Tangeri, Ceuta, Tunisi, Algeri, Taranto, e Tripoli. Nel foglio orientale troviamo quelli di Carabuso, Messina, Palermo, Trapani e Santa. Johannes Loots nacque ad Amsterdam nel 1665 circa. Le prime notizie lo danno come produttore di strumenti; intorno al 1693 si stabilì nel negozio in Nieuwebrugsteeg, con insegna “In de Jonge Lootman”. La scelta della strada non fu casuale; vivevano e lavoravano nella stessa via, infatti, Johannes van Keulen ed Hendrick Doncker, nel cui negozio Johannes Loots aveva svolto il suo apprendistato come produttore di strumenti matematici e nautici. Sebbene questa professione non lo qualificasse come venditore di libri e stampe, la corporazione dei librai, dopo qualche esitazione, lo accettò come membro nel maggio del 1693. L’attività di Loots come editore di carte è datata al primo aprile 1695: in un contratto notarile risalente a questa data, Loots fece un accodo con l’incisore Antoni de Winter per l’intaglio di un certo numero di carte nautiche da stampare in collaborazione. Si presume che queste carte siano poi state usate per il primo atlante nautico di Loots, il Het nieu en compleet Paskaart Boek van de Noord en Oost Zee, del 1697. Tuttavia, Antoni de Winter, non rispettando gli accordi, si associò con il perito agrario e matematico Claas de Vries con lo scopo di realizzare una guida nautica “con la proiezione di Mercatore e latitudine crescente”. Solo in seguito Loots venne coinvolto nel progetto e ricevette, il 2 luglio 1698, il privilegio per stampare un atlante nautico che, sebbene addirittura pubblicizzato nel Courster Amsterdamsche del 28 agosto 1698, non venne mai pubblicato. Durante il periodo 1698 – 1707, però, la tipografia produsse una cospicua quantità di mappe che venivano vendute in raccolte assemblate su ordinazione e senza un vero...

Johannes Loots (1665 - 1726) was active from 1693 until his death in 1726. Loots began his career by Hendrick Doncker. Several charts from this maker were offered separately.In 1707, Loots sold 100 charts to Gerard Van Keulen. In 1707, Loots seems to have purchased the plates of Jacob Robijn.Bibliografia: C.
