1747rif. 143611747. Bellin Jacques Nicolas. Ile d'Ormus ou de Jerun 1747 depicts Hormuz and the surrounding Persian Gulf maritime landscape more than a century after an Anglo-Persian force ended Portuguese control of the island in 1622. Published in Histoire générale des voyages the engraving identifies the Persian coast islands anchorages fortifications and channels while distinguishing Arab vessels from large-masted European sailing ships. Its concentration on ships coastal defenses and approaches to Hormuz records the strategic geography of a passage that connected Persian Gulf ports with Indian Ocean trading routes. Bellin Jacques Nicolas. Ile d'Ormus ou de Jerun. From Histoire générale des voyages 1747. Overall sheet size 13.5 x 9.5 inches; image size 7.5 x 9.75 inches. The upper portion identifies the "Cote de Perse" while inscriptions throughout the engraving include "Fortresse" "Ile de Kishom ou Quixema" "Entre des Vaisseaux" "Porte de derriere" "Parade Alkoran" "St. Lucia" and "Lardimira." Five Arab vessels occupy the foreground while additional Arab shipping appears at left and European ships with tall masts and multiple sails appear at right. The fortified settlement on Hormuz includes the fortress associated with Portuguese occupation of the island. Hormuz had been seized in 1507 by the Portuguese commander Afonso de Albuquerque and Portuguese control made the island a fortified base for regulating maritime commerce at the entrance to the Persian Gulf. The Portuguese constructed the Fort of Our Lady of the Conception there; in 1622 forces of Shah Abbas I assisted by ships of the English East India Company captured Hormuz and ended Portuguese rule on the island. Bellin's 1747 engraving therefore records a landscape shaped by earlier Portuguese fortification but returned to Persian control while its juxtaposition of Arab and European vessels documents the continuing international maritime character of the strait. Paper folded three times consistent with its original publication format. Overall very good condition. unknown

8vo. 8 pp. With woodcut device on title page. Wrappers. An appeal, written in verse, to all religious orders and Christian laymen to take arms against the Ottomans. Apparently an early product of the Turkish-Venetian War of 1714-18, in which the new Grand Vizier Silahdar Damat Ali Pasha re-conquered Morea (the Peloponnesus) from the Venetians, who had held the peninsula since 1699. A different version (kept at the Biblioteca Civica Bertoliana in Vicenza), published by Giovanni Berno "in Venetia, Bassano, & in Verona", is dated 1715; this date of publication is also supported by the mention of Pope Clement XI (1700-21). However, the Marciana in Venice keeps an earlier publication of the same work produced for the Venetian Alessandro Cortesi, bearing the date 1663. Yet another, undated version in the Biblioteca Universitaria di Padova bears the imprint "In Venezia, per Domenico Lovisa à Rialto". No other copy with Remondini's imprint is known. - Some browning and waterstaining; old pagination in manuscript and stamped (apparently removed from an old collection).
4to. With 13 numbered lithographed plates (the first used as frontispiece), including 3 fully and 1 partially coloured by a contemporary hand, of which 2 highlighted in gold. Contemporary half calf, restored and rebacked with parts of the original backstrip laid down, with new tooling and title-label on spine, cloth sides, later endpapers. First edition of "the historic cornerstone of the study [of mummification] in English. For the time at which it appeared, the work was a monumental undertaking. Based on scholarly research and practical experience, Pettigrew's work was a summation of almost all that was known concerning Egyptian funerary practices. He compiled all the ancient sources and commented on them, as well as discussing many examples of mummified remains investigated by or known to him. The work is illustrated by [...] Georges Cruikshank (better known for his satirical drawings) that are the product of careful observation" (Peck). - With the bookplate of the British lawyer and politician Bernard John Seymour Coleridge, 2nd Baron Coleridge (1851-1927). Some foxing on the title-page and some spots and marginal waterstains on the plates, touching the last three illustrations, otherwise in good condition. Binding rebacked and restored. Brunet IV, 581. Gay 1565. W. H. Peck, "Mummies of ancient Egypt" in: Mummies, disease and ancient cultures (1998), p. 15.
Small folio (238 x 298 mm). (4), XXVII, (1), 470, (2) pp. Later 19th century marbled half calf with giltstamped title to gilt spine. Marbled endpapers. First edition. - Since 1815 Peyron (1785-1870) taught oriental languages at the University of Turin. He was a specialist in the Coptic language, the latest stage of Egyptian and spoken in Egypt until at least the 17th century. His research in this field gained him an international renown that was consolidated by his Coptic dictionary, the earliest of its kind. It remained unsurpassed until Wilhelm Spiegelberg's "Koptisches Handwörterbuch" in 1921. - From the library of the Ducs de Luynes at the Château de Dampierre: their bookplate reproducing the arms of Charles Marie d'Albert de Luynes (1783-1839), 7th Duc de Luynes, on pastedown. An excellent copy. Ibrahim-Hilmy II, 113. Gay 2337. Zaunmüller 228. Vater/Jülg 209. Brunet IV, 584. Graesse V, 247. OCLC 2786885.
4to. (32) pp. With many woodcut type specimens. Disbound. Only edition; one of several variant issues. - A congratulatory publication by the prolific Saxon oriental scholar August Pfeiffer (1640-98) who was said to know seventy languages. The present rare work is dedicated to the Duke of Saxony Johann Georg II on the occasion of his 15th anniversary as Elector. It contains 15 celebratory poems in the world's principal languages German, Latin, Greek, Hebrew (with Latin literal translation), Chaldaic (with Latin transliteration and literal translation), in the Jerusalem dialect, in Syriac (with Latin literal translation), Samaritan, Arabic, Ethiopian, Farsi, Ottoman Turkish, Coptic, Armenian, and Chinese (all with Latin transliteration and literal translation). The end is brought up by a "fusa vacui" (or stopgap), namely verse 3 of Psalm 113 in no fewer than 35 different languages (Hebrew, Chaldaic, Syriac, Arabic, Ethiopian, Samaritan, Farsi, Ottoman Turkish, Armenian, Coptic, Iberian, Greej, Latin, Italian, Sardinian, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Saxon, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, English, Scots, Irish Gaelic, Hungarian, Polish, Czech, Serbo-Croatian, Chinese, Nahuatl, Inuit, and Quechua. - Browned throughout due to paper; binding loosened; old ownership to title-page and page numbers throughout, but trimmed rather closely. This copy was bound from a defective set of sheets: several leaves (3 and 4 in each gathering) show a hole through the middle of the page, resulting in loss of text to several poems (mainly affecting Chaldaic, Arabic, Turkish, and Coptic). VD 17, 12:161548X. Not in Jöcher or J./Adelung.
Oblong folio. 440 pp. Illustrated with tipped-in reproductions in colour of paintings by various artists, including paintings by Anthony M.

"Extremely detailed, especially the pedigrees, racing records and index. I've come to rely on it daily as a valued reference" (John Prather, review in Bloodstock Advisory). "Everyone in the thoroughbred industry should have a copy. The colour plates alone are enough to justify buying it" (Dr. William Reed, review in Mare's Haven). - In excellent condition. OCLC 41093209.
