His far-sighted optimism and inventive flair animated that famous group of technological revolutionaries of the 1760s and 1770s which included Wedgewood, Watt, Boulton and Keir and in time became the driving force behind the Industrial Revolution." - from dust jacket.

Ownership inscription of J. Edmonds Oxford. Scarce in jacket. Very good. "The first American publication of a thirty-odd year old portrait of Erasmus Darwin grandfather of the famous Charles and great three times grandfather of author Pearson the last probably accounting not only for the intimacies involved but also the reverence indulged in. Darwin was 18th century England's physician par excellence George III wanted him but didn't get him; Darwin was too democratic; he was also a philosopher a poet and head mandarin of the Lunar Society whose celebrated enclave held Watt of the steam engine Wedgwood of pots and Priestley of oxygen. Darwin was a stutterer who looked twice his age; nevertheless his sallies never missed nor was his sexual appetite ever starved. Twice married and many more times a father his home was a happy one; a failing though- grumpy disapproval of all things spiritual- cost him a son a wistful lad who ended it all at the bottom of the River Derwent. Pearson's style here- it has changed since then- is pretty much drawing-room English comfortably ensconced with wit and stage-bearded with wisdom. The hyperbole of course gets heavy-handed: was Darwin really the progenitor of eugenics aeroplanes submarines psychoanalysis That he was the "parent of Creative Evolution" one can doubt a doctrine made unfashionable ironically enough by his grandson. Put it all down as a bunched-together biography- incidents anecdotes character studies-which in its fustily fastidious way is fascinating. And if Darwin as a personality doesn't emerge as engaging as he was intellectually extraordinary well one can't have everything especially all in one family." Kirkus Reviews. J. M. Dent & Sons, 1930. hardcover books

1518ref. ABC_49875Cologne: Johann Gymnic 1518. Modern faux-leather-patterned paper with a grey paper label on the spine with the authors name lettered in silver Erasmus v. Rotterdam. 4to. With the title set with in a frame built up from 4 or possibly 6 woodcut illustrations including printer's initials and the date 1518 and 10 woodcut decorated initials. Selection of three letters by the Church Father Jerome of Stridon Saint Jerome ca. 342/47-420 CE edited and annotated by Erasmus. Erasmus felt a profound connection to Jerome. He saw in the ancient Church Father not only a kindred spirit but also a mirror for his own intellectual and spiritual journey. Included in this volume are three letters: first the epistle to Heliodorus on the praise of the solitary life de vita solitaria a stirring defence of ascetic withdrawal from the world; second the epistle to Heliodorus on the misery of human life de miseria vitae humanae a sombre reflection on the fleeting nature of earthly existence; and third the epistle to the monk Rusticus on avoiding familiarity with women de mulieribus evitandis a warning shaped by both monastic ideals and Jeromes personal convictions. Additionally a short fourth letter addressed to Onasus is included at the end of the volume though it does not appear on the title page. In this letter he satirically addresses the priest Onasus who had a deformed nose and his feeling of being unjustly attacked and being made a fool of in other letters and writings by Jerome.With early manuscript annotations corrections etc. of the printed text in the margins and occasional underlining of the text mainly concerning the third letter written in three different hands in both brown and black ink. With a 0.5 cm worm hole in the gutter margin not affecting the text. Occasional foxing and browning and some water staining in the fore-edge margin of several leaves.

1529ref. 3896Coloniae Köln: apud Ioannem Gymnicum Johann Gymnich I 1529. First Gymnich edition. Later paste-paper wrappers. Tinted edges. Title page with ink blot obscuring an early blind ownership stamp. Later manuscript annotation to the second leaf. Very good condition. First Gymnich edition. Later paste-paper wrappers. Tinted edges. ff. 39. A rare Cologne edition from Johann Gymnich's ambitious Augustinian publishing programme issued in the wake of Erasmus's Froben edition of Augustine. Issued in September 1529 the present edition belongs to Johann Gymnich's remarkable programme of Augustinian publications in Cologne. Between 1528 and 1533 he published sixteen editions representing fourteen different Augustinian works eight of them in 1529 alone. This publishing programme coincided with the appearance of Erasmus's monumental ten-volume edition of Augustine's Opera printed by Johann Froben at Basel between 1528 and 1529. While the Froben edition offered Augustine's complete works in an ambitious scholarly edition Gymnich issued individual treatises in inexpensive convenient format making them available independently of the costly collected Opera. By 1528 the first volumes of the Erasmian edition were already on the market and the enterprise was completed only in June 1529 a few months before Gymnich published the present work. Comparison with the contemporary Froben edition shows that Gymnich's De moribus was not conceived as an independent editorial undertaking. Adapted for publication as a separate treatise it prefixes the relevant extract from Augustine's Retractationes and employs a different system of chapter arguments while the text itself closely follows that of the contemporary Basel edition. Whether Gymnich worked directly from the Froben printing or from another witness of the same recension remains uncertain but the close chronological relationship between the two publishing programmes strongly suggests that Gymnich's Augustinian series was conceived in the context of the renewed demand generated by Erasmus's edition. Written shortly after Augustine's conversion De moribus ecclesiae catholicae is one of his earliest anti-Manichaean treatises. Addressed principally against the Manichaeans it defends the moral teaching and ascetic ideals of the Catholic Church while setting them against those of its rival. . apud Ioannem Gymnicum [Johann Gymnich (I)] unknown
