1692rif. M9110Trajecti ad Rhenum : Francisci Halma c. 1692. Very Good. Notes: A finely engraved map of the world by Nicolas Sanson "the father of French cartography" during the late 17th century. Engraved by A. de Winter. There are a lot of fascinating cartographic errors that were made such as California being shown as an island and the western half of North America not being depicted as it had yet to be discovered. But the treatment of far and southeast Asia is much improved when we compare it to Sanson's map of 1652. Korea reverts to an attenuated peninsula instead of the short squat round island in the earlier Sanson version. Likewise the partial outline of Australia changes it shape to a much more realistic outline of Australia.

An odd feature is the name Barditus Mons given to a long chain of mountains running continuously from somewhere in Angolato Algoa Bay. No place names appear even on the coast of the southern part of the continent which is labelled 'Agi Symba' a name usually referring to the northern African region and inhabitants are 'Anthropophagi Aethiopes' or cannibals."

1667rif. 10027Paris 1667. No Binding. Near Fine. 12 ½ x 17 inches. Original outline color; excellent. Earliest map of Martinique listed in Phillips featuring attractive original color and an elegant cartouche. This map depicts the situation on the island before 1660 when it was still largely inhabited by natives and only about half of it had been claimed by colonists for sugar cane farming. The map goes so far as to mark with a printed line the partition dividing the "demeure des François" and the "demeure des savages." However by 1660 the entirety of the native population was either dead expelled or in slavery and Martinique was a full-fledged sugar cane-farming European colony. Phillips Maps P. 389. unknown
1650rif. 309461Paris: Pierre Mariette 1650. unbound. Abraham Peyrounin. Map. Engraving with original outline color. Image measures 15 3/4" x 21 3/4" This exceptionally fine map of South America covers the continent in fine detail. Coastlines are extensively labeled and mountains beautifully rendered in profile. The Orinoco and Amazon Rivers as well as Rio de la Plata are prominently rendered. Sanson refrains from drawing a southern coastline to Tierra del Fuego and the relatively unknown Amazon region is depicted in minimal detail. Sanson does however include the mythical lake "Lac de Parime" and the city of gold "Manoa del Dora" between the Orinoco and Amazon rivers. Nice dark impression. In very good condition. Minor dampstain to lower margin not affecting the image and some faint stains near the center of the map - otherwise clean and bright. Hard to find. Nicolas Sanson 1600-1667 is considered the founder of the French school of cartography. In reaction to the prevailing trend of Dutch lavishness Sanson favored minimal details focusing rather on accurate cartography than ornament. Pierre Mariette unknown

rif. 3238Americas: Amsterdam Francois Halma 1705. Copper engraved map of North America by N. Sanson from Halma's Algemeene Werelde Beschryving Vol. 3 Black and white; title in Dutch; verso blank; strapwork title cartouche. Attractive small map showing North America with California as an Island California is shown with an indented northern coastline in the Foxe form. The detached coastline to the northwest of California is named Terre de Iesso ou Ieco rather than reflecting Sanson's earlier belief that it was an extension of the American continent. The R. de Nort drains into the Gulf of California from a large interior lake in the country of Les Apaches. The two western-most Great Lakes are left open-ended and Lake Erie remains unnamed. Engraved by Antoine d'Winter. This is the third state which includes a peninsula inserted northeast of California the Carolinas attributed to the French N. Iork added below N. Amstredam and an umlaut over the "Roy" in the title. This map appeared in Algemeene Weereld-Beschryving nae de Rechte Verdeeling der Landschappen Plaetsen Zeeën Rivieren &c.

Engraved head and tail pieces. 8vo 7 3/4 x 4 3/4 inches pages: xxiv Dedication to Sir Richard Steele:xxv-lxviii A Critical Essay.by way of Letter from Mr. John Porter.:131 contemporary full panelled tan calf 20th Century very neat reback in tan calf with lettering piece. Contemporary signature 'Nichs Marshall' on front fly. Anon. Rare. Clio was Fowke's "literary" name for herself while Strephon was the poet and journalist William Bond. The work is an exchange of letters in verse and prose. Fowke's poetry sometimes expresses her frustration with the conventional expectations of a woman's place in 18th Century society; her former friend and fellow-writer Eliza Haywood attacked Fowke in a scandalous account of her relationships which affected the poet's reputation badly.

1682rif. za2213A Paris, chez l'Auteur, aux Galleries du Louvre, vis à vis l'Eglise de St Nicolas Relié 1682 "In-12 (9,8 x 16 cm), reliure plein veau, dos à 4 nerfs orné de caissons dorés, liseré doré sur les coupes, tranches mouchetées, titre comple : ""Introduction à la géographie, première partie. Où sont 1. Indiquées les Sciences dont la Géographie emprunte plusieurs Principes. 2. La Description des differentes Manieres dont cette Science est Représentée. 3. L'Explication des Termes de toutes les Parties de la Geographie. 4. Une Instruction de toutes les Parties de la Geographie. 4. Une Instruction de l'Usage des Cartes."", pagination comme suit : page de titre, préface (6 pp. non numérotées), avis au lecteur (2 pp. non numérotées), table des chapitres (9 pp. non numérotées, fautes à corriger, extrait du Privilege du Roy, 292 pp., table alphabetique (13 pp. non numérotées), avertissement (5 pp. non numérotées). Le plan de cet ouvrage de 320 pages est composé de trois parties. Dans la première, l'auteur place la géographie dans la cosmoraphie, puis il distingue entre globes et cartes, avant de décrire, comme l'avait fait Lubin, le vocabulaire de la géographie. Guillaume Sanson conclut cette partie par un chapitre sur l'usage des cartes. La deuxième partie s'intéresse aux relations entre l'astronomie et la géographie, décrivant le globe soit par par zones, soit par la grille des latitudes et longitudes. Enfin, la troisième partie, dite de géographie naturelle, rassemble pêle-mêle la liste des découpages du globe, selon les grilles évoquées dans la deuxième partie, puis en fonction des continents et des mers, voire selon d'autres critères comme les géographies historique, politique et sacrée, ou linguistique. La description de l'ensemble des Etats du monde y occupe 20 pages (et semble avoir été inspirée par l'Atlas du monde publié par Nicolas Sanson en 1665). Il s'agit donc d'abord d'une géographie assez théorique qui viserait à faire connaître le vocabulaire ainsi que les catégories de la géographie. Pourquoi cette introduction n'offre-t-elle pas plus de description de la géographie du monde ? Parce que la géographie --comme Guillaume Sanson l'écrit dans la préface-- ""est présentement à la Portée de tout le Monde, puisqu'avec cette méthode il ne faut que des yeux et des cartes"" (Sanson 1682). Deux hypothèses en découlent. La première fait de ce livre avant tout un prospectus pour les cartes des Sanson. La seconde y voit une tentative, par la famille Sanson, de captation de la géographie par la cartographie. De plus, on trouve dans l'édition de 1682 un avertissement passionnant de la main de Sanson, situé après la table alphabétique des matières. Il y critique la ""Méthode pour apprendre facilement la géographie"" de Jacques Robbe (1678), ainsi que la ""Description de Univers contenant les différents systèmes du monde"" à paraître (1683) de Manesson-Mallet, le traitant sans retenue de plagiaire. Plus loin, ayant mis en garde des acheteurs de cartes que les copistes étaient foison, Sanson note qu'il fait encore partie des vivants : ""Quelques uns nous effacent hardiment du nombre des Vivans, d'autres ont voulu persuader que nous estions retournez en Province, & qu'il y en avoit qui avoient eu assez d'effronterie pour prendre notre Nom ; de sorte que nous avons fait mettre à la Teste de cette Introduction Que nous demeurons aux Galleries du Louvre, pour desabuser le Public, & faciliter par là de Dessein de ceux qui voudront nous faire l'honneur de venir chez nous pour s'éclaircir de quelques difficultez, ou pour prendre avis touchant nos Ouvrages qu'ils voudront avoir."" ; quelques épidermures au dos, coiffe supérieure et coins du premier plat un peu usés, par ailleurs intérieur frais, bon état général.
