1888Best.-Nr. 5014Paris / Lille: Société de Saint-Augustin 1888. First edition. An unusual work telling the story of the Roman Catholic Missions to Africa. A large book. Soft covers bound in vellum with black printed titles and designs to the front and rear covers. The vellum is still and a little cracked with age and there is a small hole to the spine edge. It seems a very luxurious way to bind a book in the late nineteenth century! The book block is separate from the vellum binding - but it may always have been more of a folder / portfolio as there is no sign of it having been attached to the inside of the vellum. The binding of the book block is fragile and although it is just holding together it is a little loose. The first page is a chromolithographed title with gilt decoration in the style of a medieval work. The Jesuits monogram is to the centre of the design. There is a closed tear to the bottom edge. There are then 148 pages bordered in red floral design. Full of illustrations. These mark the history of Christian missions in Africa from the flight of the holy family to the late nineteenth century. Engravings steels in black and white and sepia throughout. Some in green colour. An attractive rather fragile work with light intermittent foxing. We can find only one other copy in its original binding. This was one of four works dealing with Africa Asia America and Oceania each complete in themselves. 38cm x 27cm. Conforms to WorldCat / OCLC: 7635132. The Société de Saint-Augustin was in fact a publishing arm of Desclée de Brouwer & Cie. This was a publishing house active in the late 19th century known for producing Catholic literature and missionary works. . Première édition. Un ouvrage inhabituel racontant l'histoire des missions catholiques romaines en Afrique. Un grand livre. Couvertures souples reliées en vélin avec titres et motifs imprimés en noir sur les couvertures avant et arrière. Le vélin est encore et un peu craquelé par l'âge et il y a un petit trou sur le bord du dos. Cela semble être une façon très luxueuse de relier un livre à la fin du dix-neuvième siècle ! Le corps d'ouvrage est séparé de la reliure en vélin - mais il se peut qu'il ait toujours été davantage un dossier ou un portefeuille car il n'y a aucune trace d'attachement à l'intérieur du vélin. La reliure du corps d'ouvrage est fragile et bien qu'elle tienne à peine elle est un peu lâche. La première page est un titre chromo-lithographié avec une décoration dorée dans le style d'un ouvrage médiéval. Le monogramme des Jésuites se trouve au centre du dessin. Il y a une déchirure fermée sur le bord inférieur. Il y a ensuite 148 pages bordées d'un motif floral rouge. Les illustrations sont nombreuses. Celles-ci retracent l'histoire des missions chrétiennes en Afrique depuis la fuite de la sainte famille jusqu'à la fin du dix-neuvième siècle. Gravures aciers en noir et blanc et en sépia tout au long de l'ouvrage. Certaines sont en vert. Ouvrage attrayant plutôt fragile avec de légères rousseurs intermittentes. Nous n'avons trouvé qu'un seul autre exemplaire dans sa reliure d'origine. Il s'agit de l'un des quatre ouvrages traitant de l'Afrique de l'Asie de l'Amérique et de l'Océanie chacun étant complet en soi. 38cm x 27cm. Conforme à WorldCat / OCLC : 7635132. La Société de Saint-Augustin était en fait une maison d'édition de Desclée de Brouwer & Cie. Il s'agit d'une maison d'édition active à la fin du 19e siècle connue pour sa littérature catholique et ses ouvrages missionnaires. Société de Saint-Augustin paperback
