réf. 31082 p.l. lvi 502 pp. 8vo 19th-cent. sheep-backed marbled boards flat spine gilt red morocco lettering piece on spine. Paris: Dessain 1779. A most unusual copy very probably Chardin’s own copy of this sale catalogue; it is the first of several sales here held under the maiden name of his wife “Filheul” by which Chardin one of the most important Parisian booksellers of his time periodically disposed of a portion of his vast stock. We know of later sales in 1806 1819 in London and 1824. This did not prevent Chardin from selling many rare books and MSS. directly to collectors throughout his career — the most outstanding was no doubt the Psalter of St. Louis which he sold to a Russian Grand Duke and which Louis XVIII acquired from him for the Bibliothèque Royale. The above catalogue especially rich in early French books is extremely well compiled and has been long held in high esteem. According to Longchamp I p. 496 La Vallière purchased heavily at this sale. One of the remarkable features of this catalogue is the large number of heterodox and politically subversive books betraying Chardin’s sympathies which years later made him an enthusiastic supporter of the Revolution: of 122 lots only the number is given and their authors and titles are indicated by dots. In our copy these have been supplied by a contemporary annotator. According to Jean Viardot from whose library this comes this is Chardin’s own copy. He has signed it on page 424 “Chardin A Paris en Juillet 1780.” Another slightly later annotator has provided extensive notes on Chardin on pages 424-25. Chardin was eulogized at length by Dibdin who had him portrayed by Lewis in his Tour in France and Germany II pp. 400-404. Very good copy. 2544 lots; priced throughout in a contemporary hand. This copy lacks the final leaf with the list of 15th-century editio princeps. ⧠Gustave Brunet Dictionnaire de Bibliologie Catholique col. 459–“Il s’y trouve un assez grand nombre de livres rares et singuliers.” Grolier Club Printed Catalogues of French Book Auctions…1643-1830 277.

1681réf. 60953Genff Widerhold 1681. Folio 340 x 210 mm. Recently bound in a magnificent pastiche-binding of brown half calf with gilt red leather title-label to elaborately gilt spine. Vellum corners. Title-page with stains. A few marginal repairs not affecting text. 8 82 pp. Exceedingly rare first German translation of Chardin’s “Le Couronnement de Soleimaan troisieme” 1671 - his report on the coronation of the new Persian king and what happened during the first years of his reign. Returning to Persia on the way home to Europe Chardin witnessed the coronation of Suleiman III in 1669. Chardin’s works are considered some of the finest works of early Western scholarship on Iran and the Subcontinent in general and the present work offered Europe a rare glimpse into the customs of the Royal house of Persia. “Chardin details the ceremonies in the present work with a preface that laid out the parallels between the French and Persian monarchies. Chardin portrays a filial bond between the two monarchies. The Persian shah he declares calls “Your Majesty Louis XIV his brother” due to their shared grandeur. Chardin proclaims “The Kind of France is the greatest Emperor in Europe as he the shah is the most powerful Prince in Asia.” He emphasizes his admiration for Persia and its likeness to France: “Of all the vast Empires of the Orient … there is not one that should not yield to Persia for the temperature of the air for genius that is more reasonable than other places and is closest to our own and for all the excellent and rare things that are found there in abundance.” Mokhberi The Persian Mirror Born in Paris in a Hugenot Protestant family Jean Chardin 1643-1713 undertook his travels to Persia because of his father's position as a jeweler and shareholder in the French East India Company. Chardin set out in 1664 traveling through Turkey the Black Sea Georgia and Armenia. Soon after his arrival in Persia he received a commission to create jewelry for Shah Abbas II who died in 1666 and was succeeded by Shah Safi. After witnessing the latter's coronation Described here Chardin went on India and finally returned to Paris in 1670. In 1671 he published an account of the coronation and in the same year set off for Persia again arriving in Isfahan in 1673 and remaining there for several years before once more visiting India and returning home in 1677. With the persecution of the Hugenots in France he moved to England in 1680. "Travel restarted with 17th-century missionaries whose medical and pedagogical expertise helped counterbalance Orthodox or pagan reservations. Dominican Prefects Dortelli D'Ascoli and Giovanni da Lucca 1630s extended Giorgio Interiano's description of Circassia and Abkhazia. Theatine proselytisers targeted Mingrelia/western Georgia Capuchins the eastern provinces - the Vatican's Fide Press further contributed by printing the first Georgian books Chikobava/Vateishvili. Many including mission-head Don Pietro Avitabile 1626-1638 recounted their experiences. Prefect to Mingrelia Joseph Marie Zampi a 23-year denizen from approximately 1645 contributed a third significant source in his description of Mingrelian religious practice. This he handed to Jean Chardin 1643-1713 in 1672. A French traveller who became English! ambassador in Holland Chardin translated and incorporated it as a substantial part of his own description of a sometimes perilous journey through Transcaucasia 1672-3 which reflects Ottoman and Persian influence in western and eastern parts respectively - a Turkish organized slave-trade flourished from various Mingrelian ports. Linguistically Zampi revealingly observed that the ecclesiastical language Georgian was as difficult for even the Mingrelian priesthood to understand as Latin was for Italian peasants!"

2004réf. 8918Portland Oregon: Sussex Academic Press 2004. 8vo. 123pp. Near fine in very good jacket save a closed tear near the base of spine. This copy from the library of author Anne Rice inscribed and dated 2004 on the half-title page with several passages underlined and tabbed throughout the text. The inscription reads "9-11-04 - The anniversary of the dreadful terrorist attack on America. I turn to this new h.c. from the old paperback of this work which I've only first discovered and the poetry of which has left me reeling. There are important notes in that paperback. I keep it with me. Teilhard has come to me at the perfect time. My notes in this book will obviously be confessions very brief in a spiritual journey." Anne Rice's spiritual and religious journey is intricately tied to her writing. Rice grew up in the Catholic Church but identified as atheist for most of her adult life. She returned to the Catholicism in 1998 following a near death experience. In 2004 she nearly died again from an intestinal blockage a common complication of gastric bypass surgery which she'd had the previous year. Although she was strong in her Catholic convictions she did not agree with Church's stances on social issues - particularly marriage equality and women's health. Sussex Academic Press unknown
