[BRÉSIL] FROGER, François
Relation d'un voyage fait en 1695, 1696 & 1697 aux côtes d'Afrique, Détroit de Magellan, Brézil, Cayenne & Isle Antilles
Amsterdam, chez les héritiers, d'Antoine Schelte, 1699, in-12, titre-frontispice, [6] ff, 227 p, veau moucheté brun de l'époque, dos à nerfs doré, tranches mouchetées, Seconde édition de cette relation de voyage effectué par Jean Baptiste de Gennes et narrée par Froger, un ingénieur et hydrographe. Elle débute par un joli frontispice et vingt-huit planches gravées hors-texte, certaines dépliantes, dont la recherchée vue de Rio de Janeiro. L'auteur y décrit et dépeint autant les paysages que la faune, la flore ou le traitement des esclaves et des populations locales par les colons. Le but de cette expédition était de créer une colonie française au détroit de Magellan et malgré l'échec de cette installation, elle reste la première relation d'un voyage français au détroit ainsi qu'une source fort intéressante pour l'histoire et la géographie des régions décrites.

[Brazil - Cartography] [Afro-Brazilian Cartographers] Sampaio, Teodoro
Carta de Reconcavo de Bahia
Bahia 1928. Folded map. Fine condition. Fine. Teodoro Sampaio was an Afro-Brazilian cartographer engineer politician and historian who was very active in Brazil particularly in Bahia during the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. Offered here is Sampaio’s map of Bahia from 1928 which updates a map he produced in 1899 of the same region with updates of the settlement of the region including a detailed inset of the city of BBahio de Todos os Santos on the lower right corner. At the time of the map’s production Sampaio was an authority on Brazilian geography being a member of the Instituto Geográfico e Histórico da Bahia serving as president in 1922 and a member of the Instituto Histórico e Geográfico Brasileiro and the Instituto Geográfico e Histórico da Bahia and publishing several books on Brazilian geography. The period between 1899 when the first edition of this map was published and 1928 saw the development of rubber plantations in Bahia and the map provides detail on the region’s roads and population centers. We find no publicly held examples of this edition and one copy of the 1899 edition at Princeton though we do find a reference to this edition at the Brazilian National Archives. unknown

THIRTY NEW BRAZILIAN PLANTS<br>DESCRIBED BY LINNAEUS' FOREMOST DISCIPLE<br>Plantarum brasiliensium. Decas Prima / Secunda / Tertia.
<p>Three separately published parts. 4to. 20 x 16.5 20.5 x 16 and 21 x 17 cm. I: 1 f. 16 pp. with engraved plates of Lobelia westiniana 31 cm x 20.5 cm and Rhexia imbricata & Berberis laurifolia 30 cm x 20.5 cm. II: 1 f. 11 pp. III: 2 ff. 13 pp. engraved plate of Billbergia speciosa 35.5cm x 22cm. Title pages slightly dusty. Part II unbound. Generally excellent.<br /></p><p>A rare series of three consecutively printed dissertations 2 of them illustrated on the flora of Brazil diligently recorded in standard Linnaean form by Carl Thunberg Linnaeus' foremost disciple and the greatest botanical explorer and collector of his day. The specimens were collected by Georg Wilhelm Freyreiss in his travels to Minas Gerais Brazil in 1814-15. Only eight species out of the thirty described by Thunberg in these booklets had been studied until recently Moraes Smedt and Hjertson. Most of the specimens can still be found today at Uppsala University.</p><p>Although the dissertations are separately signed by Billberg Ahlberg and Holm Reyment notes that the work in each case was Thunberg's since it was customary for the professor to write the thesis which his students would then defend in public. Each dissertation is in the form of a scientific description of 10 different species of which several appear to be named and described for the first time: for example Billberg's thesis notes two <i>Lobelia</i> one <i>Begonia</i> and one <i>Euphorbia</i>; Ahlberg'sseveral orchids <i>Epidendrum Cymbidium</i> sp. nightshades <i>Solanum</i> sp. and a type of wild basil <i>Ocymum</i>; and Holm's a species of bromeliad <i>Billbergia speciosa</i>. Two of the theses are illustrated with detailed depictions of the specimens involved on large folding engravings.</p><p>Carl Peter Thunberg 1743-1828 rector of the University of Uppsala earned the epithets "father of South African botany" and "the Japanese Linnaeus." Of the disciples whom Linnaeus sent off on far-flung collecting journeys Thunberg traveled the furthest reaching South Africa Indonesia Japan where in order to be admitted he had to pass himself off as a Dutch Protestant merchant and Sri Lanka. Thunberg is cited in naming some 254 species of plants and animals though significantly more plants than animals and authoring more than 160 monographs and scientific papers.</p><p>OCLC: 3 parts together at NYPL U.

[Brazil] Aoyagi, Ikutaro

Tokyo: Burajiru ni Okeru Nihonjin Hattenshi Kanko Iinkai Publication Committee for the History of Japanese Development in Brazil 1942. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. A two-volume history of the Japanese in Brazil by a one-time California resident who helped open Brazil for the Japanese. The first Japanese immigrants settled in Brazil in 1908 not coincidentally the year after the Gentleman's Agreement restricted immigration to the United States. The new arrivals mostly pursued coffee cultivation around Sao Paulo.<br/> <br/> The first volume covers the diplomatic agreements and legal framework for Japanese immigrants in Brazil. The second volume describes the various colonies established successful businesses and offers biographies of some pioneers. These volumes were published to coincide with the 2600th anniversary of Japan a milestone used to stoke the flames of nationalism in the early 1940s. These books were reprinted in the 1950s when Japanese immigration to Brazil boomed again and then again in the 1990s.<br/> <br/> Aoyagi was a major proponent of Japanese emigration and for the establishment of colonies in the Americas. He arrived in California in the 1890s was the first Japanese to visit Peru and then led the push for agricultural colonies in Brazil negotiating the agreements to allow settlements and agricultural exports. Aoyagi was also instrumental in negotiating for Japanese government funds to buy land in Brazil for immigrant farmers.
