2010New Turkish Original bdg. HC. 4to. (28 x 20 cm). In Turkish. 2 volumes set: (1126 p.), ills. Darülfünûn: Osmanli'da kültürel modernlesmenin odagi. [= Darülfünûn: The focus of Ottoman cultural modernization]. This is a comprehensive book on the history of the modern university which emerged as part of the cultural modernization process that followed the Tanzimat reforms. It records and evaluates on basis of first-hand sources the stages of formation of the university from realisation of its concept until its institution as the University of Istanbul. It is the result of many years of research by Prof. Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu. the formation of a European-type university represented a transformation in Ottoman cultural and educational life. in addition to building the university's legal, administrative and financial structures, it necessitated policy decisions on such subjects as the university model to be followed, the curricula and the faculty. The present work reviews the process extensively. It is comprised of three books laid out in two volumes. The first book examines the emergence of the idea of the modern university beginning from the period of the Tanzimat and its establishment after three attempts, and analyses its evolution in stages, until the 1933 university reform. the second book looks into the development of the Darülfünun in the light of evolving concepts and trends in cultural, social and scholarly life. As to the third book, it describes in detail the development of each of the Faculties of Science, Letters, Theology, Law and Medicine with respect to curricula, faculty, institutes affiliated, among other aspects of their activities. A very heavy and oversize set.

Amsterdam, et se trouve à Paris, chez Guillyn, 1759. 4to. menor; 2 hs., XXXVIII-271 pp. Encuadernación en medio pergamino, de la época.
In-12, plein veau marbré de l'époque, dos à 5 nerfs orné de compartiments fleuronnés et cloisonnés, roulette dorée sur les coupes, tranches rouges, (1) f., (22), 166 p. Edition originale et unique, rare, de cette véhémente réfutation des doctrines sociniennes, "une des plus dangereuses erreurs que le démon puisse suggérer aux hommes". Développé au XVIe siècle par Lelio Sozzini et son neveu Fausto Socin, le socinianisme connut un développement européen continu tout au long du XVIIe s. Proche des unitariens par le dogme, ils développèrent une doctrine de la tolérance en s'opposant aux persécutions religieuses, rejetaient la Trinité, la divinité de J.-C., le péché originel, la grâce, la prédestination et l'existence de l'Enfer, existence que Cordemoy défend ici avec âpreté. Abbé, théologien controversiste, docteur en Sorbonne, Louis Géraud de Cordemoy (1651-1722) devint historiographe du roi. Petit ex-libris manuscrit ancien sur la garde blanche "Ad Usum F. Gregory Riddell". Petits accrocs aux mors et coins. Bon exemplaire, bien relié à l'époque.

Lyon: Lugduni, Petri Landry, 1596. 12vo.; 16 hs., 816 pp. Ejemplar en el que la portada presenta pérdida de la mitad inferior, afectando a la mitad del emblema del impresor, a su nombre.y a la fecha de impresión. Encuadernación de época, en pergamino. Tomás de Vio, "el segundo Tomás", "ingeniorum extrema linea, doctorum virorum miraculum", fue una de las grandes personalidades de la curia papal de su tiempo, los comienzos de la Reforma, examinador de Lutero en Augsburgo y redactor de su Bula de Excomunión. Docente en sus primeros tiempos en Padua y Ferrara, puso de manifiesto su asombrosa erudición teológica, de la que son testimonio estas "Summula" escritas como "notas al pie" de la obra epónima de Santo Tomás: en ellas se reflejan unos tiempos de cambio en los que trata de dejar claro el papel de la Iglesia Romana como guía acerca del pecado y el peso y significado de palabras como excomunión, cisma, y discordia. Estas 1525 referencias son tambien conocidas como "Summula Peccatorum" e incluso como "Cajetana". Siete años antes de su muerte vivió el "Saco de Roma" por los Ejércitos Imperiales y hubo de pagar 5.000 escudos de oro para recobrar su libertad.

La seconde partie contient l'histoire de la naissance et du progrès du Schisme de Luther et des sectes qu'il a produites, jusqu'à la convocation du Concile de Trente. On y représente les troubles excités en Allemagne au sujet de la religion, les assemblées, les conférences, les confessions de foi, les édits, les disputes et les écrits faits sur cette matière, tant par les Catholiques que par les Sectaires. L'origine de l'Hérésie des Sacramentaires et les contestations qu'ils eurent avec Luther et ses disciples.

Il y aura un chapitre particulier destiné pour l'histoire de la Révolution d' Angleterre. La dernière partie contiendra la relation de ce qui s'est passé depuis la tenue du Concile de Trente jusqu'à la fin du siècle. Les troubles de la France et de la Hollande, auxquels la religion a servi de prétexte, en seront le principal sujet. Bel exemplaire malgré les défauts signalés, particulièrement intéressant pour toute l'histoire de la Réforme
