rif. 1670Lovely "oriental" type samples from one of the oldest and most prestigious European scientific institutions. Very rare: WorldCat traces only one copy in Uni. California Santa Barbara. No copy traced in the Italian Union catalogue OPAC SBN. In 1611 Galileo Galilei became a member of the Italian "Academy of the Lynx-Eyed" founded just a few years before in 1603 with a focus on natural sciences and mathematics. In the late 19th c. the Accademia dei Lincei became "Reale" growing into a famous centre of studies which would soon host the greatest scholars such as Pasteur Einstein Mommsen and others. As its programme was expanded with many humanitarian disciplines including Oriental studies the Reale Accademia published this elegant booklet with relatively new samples of Sanskrit Armenian Syriac Samaritan Arabic Turkish and Persian Aramaic Hieroglyphic Coptic Chinese Greek and Russian types in two sizes. As the introduction states the Academy's press was in reality the Tipografia Salviucci founded in 1747 and renamed in 1885. Description Small 4to 25.5 x 17.5 cm.

Isaiah Thomas whom Benjamin Franklin called 'the Baskerville of America' was one of the notable publishers during the early days of the Republic.He made every effort to ensure accuracy of the text by comparing some thirty different editions and having the text carefully examined by several clergymen and others who compared it with eight Bibles - Herbert 1353." The First Illustrated Bible printed in America is the 1791 folio Bible by Isaiah Thomas "The most sumptuous American Bible of the eighteenth century" : thus this quarto-sized version of that work is the Second Illustrated Bible printed in America and the first Royal Quarto Bible in English published in American both editions were announced as "completed" on the same date altho vol. 2 of the folio was still in progress.
