réf. 10809À Paris De l'imprimerie de A. Bobée 1818 1 vol. 110 x 175 mm de 3 ff. xxii pp. 1 f. d'errata et 321 pp. Veau granité orné d'un quadruple filet d'encadrement doré sur les plats dos à nerfs orné de filets dorés et à froid fleurons dorés roulettes dorées pièce de titre de maroquin bordeaux titre doré tranches marbrées roulette dorée sur les coupes dentelle intérieure dorée reliure de l'époque. Edition originale. Tirage unique à 200 exemplaires. Traduction de Courier en regard du texte grec. . Parmi les littérateurs de la décadence dans l'époque tragique de la mort de l'Empire romain le carthaginois Apulée fait figure de génie. Ces époques portent toujours d'ailleurs en même temps que leur propre poison quelques éclairs qui suffiraient à les sauver. Avec le Satiricon L'Âne d'or a donné de cette décadence l'une des meilleures représentations. Or il demeure sur les origines de ce texte quelque contradictions. Récit grec qui servit de modèle à Apulée pour L'Âne d'or La Luciade serait soit un abrégé des Métamorphoses son grand oeuvre soit au contraire leur développement. Dans sa préface Paul-Louis Courier qui donna la traduction française du texte tranche net : « . je dis que ceci n'est point un abrégé ; ce n'est point la copie réduite mais l'original au contraire du livre des Métamorphoses qui n'était qu'un développement ou plutôt une pitoyable amplification de celui-ci écrite depuis par quelque autre je crois Lucius ou si l'on veut par Lucius vieilli mal inspiré brouillé avec les Muses ayant perdu toute verve ». Et pour soutenir sa thèse il précise que les anciens n'abrégeaient que les textes historiques et « toujours on s'abstint de toucher aux ouvrages d'imagination ». Passage de la page 27 laissé en blanc comme souvent. À Paris, De l'imprimerie de A. Bobée, 1818 1 vol. (110 x 175 mm) de 3 ff., xxii pp., 1 f. d'errata et 321 pp. Veau granité, o unknown

réf. 1573393 manuscript volumes neatly written in black and red ink. Original wrappers with later string ties. Wrappers damaged with a little loss in places. Some worming. Still overall very good. 19 x 13.5cm. These three volumes are a collection of manuscripts written in the late Edo period probably the 1860s. Most of the original documents on which the manuscripts were based were written shortly after the arrival of the American delegation led by Commodore Matthew Perry in July 8 1853 June 3 in Japanese calendar. These documents written in the face of this national crisis were mostly driven by the patriotic fervour of the authors. They show a variety of thoughts about the threat from the foreign powers. None of these were published at the time and only Watanabe Kazan’s Shinki-ron was published in modern times. Kazan wrote his treatise inspired not by the arrival of Perry but by the Edo government’s hostile treatment of the American merchant ship Morrison in 1837. Titles and short synopses of these works follow: Volume 1: Chiyoda mondō Questions and Answers in Chiyoda 千代田問答 1853; Momijiyama shinrei-ki紅葉山神靈記 Message from the Holy Spirit in Momijiyama The author of Chiyoda mondō is unknown. The word "Chiyoda" in Chiyoda mondō is the name of the area where the Edo Castle sat and refers to the god in the Tōshōgū Shrine in Momijiyama next to the western part of the Edo Castle. This document is difficult to read but it appears to explain how a group of mysterious people or possibly divine spirits tell stories related to Japan's national affairs in 1853 discussing the country's national defence against foreigners and the situation regarding Christianity. In Momijiyama shinrei-ki the anonymous author who was an attendant to the group of the high government officials visiting the Tōshōgū Shrine in Momijiyama fell asleep and in his dream a Holy Spirit appeared and told him the necessity of enhancing the coastal defence in the face of the American expansion. Volume 2: Daimyō shoka kengi 大名諸家建議 Proposals from War Lords and Various People This manuscript is a collection of proposals and opinions expressed by Daimyō war lords and the retainers of the Edo government on the subject of Japan's foreign policy after the arrival of the American delegation led by Commodore Perry which requested trade with Japan. The Daimyō discuss how to deal with the crisis in terms of such issues as trade and coastal defence. Some even proposed possible war with the American fleet. The daimyo some of whom were high-rank officials of the Edo government included Shimadu Nariakira島津斉彬 1809-58 Maeda Nariyasu 前田斉泰 1811-84 Matsudaira Shungaku 松平春嶽 1928-90 Tokugawa Yoshinobu 徳川慶喜 1837-1913 Ii Naosuke 井伊直弼 1815-60 Nabeshima Naomasa 鍋島直正 1815-71 and the retainers included Inoue Saburōemon 井上三郎右衛門 - and Katsu Rinsuke 勝麟助 1823-99. Katsu became a capable mediator when the Edo castle was surrendered peacefully to the new Meiji government in 1868. Volume 3: 海防備言 Kaibō bigen Words on Coastal Defence. Habu Kumagorō 土生熊五郎- Rifujutsui 嫠不恤緯 Widow Does Not Worry the Shortage of Weft the latter a Chinese expression referring to strong patriotism; Watanabe Kazan 渡辺崋山 1793-1841 Shinki-ron愼機論 Essay on Attention to an Opportunity 1838; Hakura Morochika羽倉用九 1790-1862 Gakaisho 畫灰書 Drawing in Ash and Gasuisho畫水書 Drawing in Water 1854; Fujimori Kōan 藤森弘庵 1799-1862 Kaibō biron 海防 備論Treatise on Coastal Defence 1853 Habu Kumagorō was a Confucian scholar in Wakayama. He proposed the developing the land of Ezo 蝦夷 Hokkaido. Rifujutsui discusses such topics as the advance of the Russians to Siberia and the necessity of developing Hokkaido as well as the art of war. Watanabe Kazan was a chief retainer of the Tahara Domain eastern part of present Aichi Prefecture Confucian scholar and also famous as a painter. Shinki-ron criticises the xenophobic foreign policy of the Edo government. Hakura Morochika was a Confucian scholar in Osaka. After the arrival of Perry he discussed the measures against foreign enemies. In Gakaisho a collection of historical essays Hakura objected to trade with America in the form of an answer to the sovereign message from America seeking trade with Japan. He also wrote an answer to the sovereign message from Russia but he was more sympathetic to the Russians because they sought trade through the official channel in Nagasaki while the American delegate in the military fleet came to Uraga in a threatening manner. In Gasuisho also Hakura mentions the harmful effects of Christianity. Fujimori Kōan was a Confucian scholar of the Ono Domain in present Ono City Hyogo Prefecture. In his later life he opened a private school in Edo and wrote the comprehensive treatise on Japanese coastal defence Kaibō biron after the arrival of Perry. . unknown
