The Werewolf

1933réf. 87897London: Kegan Paul Trench Trubner & Co 1933. First U.K. Edition. First Impression. Octavo 24cm; publisher's teal cloth titled in gilt to spine; dustjacket; 307pp. Slight scuffing and bumping to corners and spine ends; boards noticeably bowed; internally clean with some light foxing and spotting mainly confined to the page edges illustrated with full page plates; in a clean strong price-clipped dustjacket with some light spotting and soiling to the front and rear panels and some visible toning to the spine panel with some shallow fraying to the spine ends. All in all a Very Good solid copy of a book that is often considerable less pleasing. One of the definitive "modern" sourceworks for werewolf and lycanthropic myth legend and study. Alongside Sabine Baring-Gould's "The Book of Were-Wolves" from 1865 which Summers' work references frequently it is the generally acknowledged source-work for the field of werewolf were-creature and shapeshifter folklore. Summers whose reputation for eccentricity and obsessive study were not even slightly exagerrated writes with an accessible and informed confidence on a number of esoteric subjects with this work and his twin studies on vampirism "The Vampire in Europe" and "Vampire; Kith and Kin" forming a triangle of weird alternative and occult texts that in all likelihood are the origin of most of the commonly understood tropes and memes regarding the field. Summers' primary skill aside from being pre-eminent in spinning a good yarn was in academic research the advantage of this is that all of his major works regarding occult and esoteric subjects are essentially reading guides towards an expanded library of the subject gathered together in one easily accessible and compelling form. Whilst he may indeed have been madder than a sack of weasels and perhaps not the sort of chap you would want to leave in charge of a school bus his contribution to the fields of alternative study are undeniable and his books highly collectible in first edition.

A Modern System of Natural History. Containing accurate descriptions and faithful histories of animals vegetables and minerals. Together with their properties and various uses in medicine mechanics manufactures &c

1775réf. 4402888London: F. Newberry 1775. Twelve duodecimo volumes with 117 engraved plates of 118 lacking plate XXVII 'Black tiger male panther and lynx'; preliminaries thumbed title of one volume perforated and another significantly browned one leaf of text ink-stained general foxing and offsetting; original sheep leather binding scuffed with split hinges; worn as is often the case with juvenile literature of this period but a charming set. A comprehensive natural history encyclopaedia for young people based on Pennant's system of classification. Animals are arranged according to quadrupeds fish birds and insects and each of these classifications is separately indexed. Besides the more usual natural history descriptions of animals vegetables and minerals this work is the first to describe for children Australia's most famous marsupial -- the kangaroo. The entry under the Jerboa vol. III p. 172 reads "Mr. Banks brought home the skin of an animal which he calls the kanguroo sic which from its general outline and the most striking peculiarity of its figure greatly remembers the jerboa yet it entirely differs in size and in many of those minute distinctions which point out the general ranks of nature. The kanguroo is often known to weigh above fifty pounds." The kangaroo was first seen by both Banks and Cook on 24 June 1770 and the first description of it appeared in Hawkesworth's Account of the Voyages published in 1773: "I should have taken it for a wild dog if instead of running it had not leapt like a hare or a deer. Mr. Banks also had an imperfect view of this animal and was of opinion that its species was hitherto unknown." During the remainder of the exploration of the east coast of Australia Cook records that both he and Banks shot and ate kangaroo on several occasions. He records two in particular that weighed eighty pounds and fifty-four pounds the skins of which Joseph Banks took back to England with him. Illustrations of over four hundred animals finely engraved in copper complete this charming eighteenth-century work intended solely to be used by children. . F. Newberry unknown

On offer is a short but fascinating travel book of one wealthy young Englishmans journey to Rotterdam and The Hague Holland in 1824. It is a unique and rare look at the travel of English aristocracy in the first half of the 19th century the last great age of the English landed gentry. The book is 30 pages in length of which writing is on every single page. Every page is filled with excursions observations and examples of lavish living for William Money his father and his cousin as they travel first to Rotterdam and then spend over a month in The Hague living at quite a fancy hotel exploring the city itself and taking day trips to landmarks around the country. The little book also includes descriptions of lavish dinners and days being waited on driven and doted on by servants and friends. It begins in the Summer 1824: June 25 1824. To commence my narrative I will give a short account of the two last days before our embarkation to Holland. I went to bed rather late on Sunday and was very tired. I had been running about Town the whole day had my teeth filed By the abominable dentist which is one of the Miserries of human life. My head was distracted in short I was a picture of misery.; June 26. The servants awoke me rather early this morning about five OClock however I was much refreshed and went to work like one who had done nothing but I forgot to state that I went to dine at a Gentlemans house on Friday and after all when I came home I had to prepare my things for Holland. Well to go on with my story we get off from No. 9 Manchester Street Manchester Square at 6 oclock this was Saturday morning June 26th 1824 our Party consisted of three my precious Father my cousin and myself. We had a gentleman's carriage to take us about town and a hackney coach to carry our luggage to the Tower that place which has executed French of the greatest and has been destroyed with Royal blood by the hoards of unnatural rebellion. The next day they are on a sailboat going from the East Coast of England and then landing in the Netherlands the next day: June 27th. Went on deck. I was expecting to see nothing but blue skies and the watery ocean but was pleasantly astonished at seeing land all around. This was lacey land I Know it by that name because the Dutch gobble so. We soon got into the river Maas after a fine voyage. We then eat our hearty breakfast.We here took up a pistol and tacked along at a fine rate saw plenty of Tony-legged bison which they called Storks. We got to Rotterdam at 12. From the instant of arrival Money is taken aback by how clean and orderly the Dutch cities are and how kind and lovely the Dutch people are as well. The layout of the cities with the canals and bridges also is commented on quite frequently. June 28th1824. We took Breakfast at Home. we went out with with and enjoyed the town. It is an elegant clean looking place. Trees shaded the walk from the burning sun and canals divide the Principal Streets. However we saw nothing no hous as they call it but came home to dinner at 4. Here we had a bottle of Mousel for dinner we went out again so that I was very tired we then came home and had tea at Mr. Mackplats where we had another Prayer and a delightful conversation. He accompanied us home where I soon got to bed and fast asleep.; After two days in Rotterdam it is off to the Hague where Money and his father and cousin will spend the rest of their time in Holland. Drove off to the Hague with which Place we are most highly delighted. I the beauty of it. It far surpassed my places that I have seen. We walked everywhere the People the PLace and all are so clean. We came to the Hotel de Belle where we have so very nice rooms that had attendance the man who drove us here cheated as that. We were not long here before . Of the gentleman who got these rooms for Papa he took us out to Table d`ote d`hotewhere we dined . This was 4 oclock and had an excellent dinner and a bottle of vin ordinaire called Bordeau.after dinner we went to Mr. Ls house to get him to show us the Place. He showed us everything in the wood.` The `wood` is most probably the Haagse Bos a rectangular neighbourhood and forest in the Haagse Hout district of The Hague Netherlands. This was simply called Die Hout The Woods Mr. L.made a capital bargain with the man only one Golden to go to that sweet Ducking Place the old man of the Place has fishing boats to go over to England for something or other. We came back after a good bathe.We then came home and prepared for dinner and went to Table Doht d`hote and after that we came back and then went to the Wood where we had tea.; After early June there are no entries until late July. July 23 1824. We got up at seven and had breakfast. We set off at 8 in a caravan with Mr. London and Mr. Tosc. We reached Leyden at 9 very much interested.We first went to the University where we saw all of plenty Indians what from all parts of the globe. We saw there a tree which was brought from Egypt in 1573 just about the time when Leyden was besieged. It was made a present by William the first and planted thereWe then went to the museum and saw curious specimens of all types. Mr. London went to the Anatomy Hall to gut us to see a Head. He came back saying we could only see one which was most beautiful all the views of the Head Neck and parts of the body it was very interesting.; Money also has a deep regard for the engineering works of the day and has a special fascination for the canals and waterways of Holland. We had dinner and then went to to see the sluis the most Beautiful work I ever saw. It was begun in 1784 and finished in 1787. The whole country was inundated by the overflowing of the Bacchus of the Nile. It was like a sea but now these are houses where there was formerly nothing but water. This formed so when the sea is very boisterous there's a good deal of sand connected to the side of the gate so that it is had to clear away as it is on the sea side. The way they do it is the precipe overflows then they lift the gates all of a sudden which goes with such force that it forces the sand away.`` This is accompanied by a page-length drawing of the canal with it`s locks and steps and houses on each sides. The drawing is amateur but well done. The book is in very good shape structurally. The writing is clear and concise script done in black ink. A few pages have some smudging and one page in particular has a good bit of ink fading but which impedes legibility but does not make it impossible. The front cover of the journal states: `Short account of a holiday spent in The Hague by William Money later Rev. William in the summer of 1824 when he was 22 years old.` This is not in Money`s handwriting and was added later by an unknown person.; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF REVEREND WILLIAM MONEY ENGLISH GENTLEMAN LANDED GENTRY 19TH CENTURY ROTTERDAM MANCHESTER ENGLAND UNITED KINGDOM THE HAGUE DEN HAAG DIE HOUT LEYDEN LEIDEN THE NETHERLANDS HOLLAND CANALS IN THE NETHERLANDS FLOOD CONTROL EXTRAVAGANT TRAVEL TABLE DHOTE SLUICE GATE AGE OF BRITISH NOBILITY COLONIAL ERA ENGLAND BRITANNICA HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT VÉLIN DOCUMENT MANUSCRIT PAPIER ANTIKE BRIEF PERGAMENT DOKUMENT MANUSKRIPT PAPIER OGGETTO DANTIQUARIATO ATTO VELINA DOCUMENTO MANOSCRITTO CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD HECHO VITELA DOCUMENTO MANUSCRITO PAPEL . unknown

Estudou humanidades filosofia e teologia com os Jesuítas em Goa. Foi ordenado sacerdote em 1676 distinguiu-se como director espiritual chegando a ser confessor de D. Rodrigo da Costa Governador da Ãndia. Em 1681 foi nomeado superior das Missões de Canará onde desenvolveu uma intensa actividade tendo restaurado a igreja de Mangalor e construído as igrejas de Barcelor Gangalim e Calianapor todas em homenagem à Virgem Maria. No ano de 1686 entrou para a Congregação do Oratório de S. Filipe de Nery formada exclusivamente por clérigos nativos. Em 1687 viajou para a ilha de Ceilão onde desembarcou disfarçado na cidade de Jaffna começando a dar assistência espiritual clandestinamente aos católicos perseguidos pelos holandeses da VOC Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie / Companhia Holandesa das Indias Orientais que tinham expulsado os portugueses da ilha em 1658. Esteve preso acusado de ser um espião português mas acabou por conseguir a liberdade por influência do Rei de Cândia Vimaladharmasuriya II que apesar de budista se tornou seu amigo. Durante a epidemia de varíola de 1697 realizou um excepcional trabalho de assistência aos enfermos e de melhoria das condições sanitárias. Aprendeu a falar cingalês e tamil que falava com muita elegância e energia. Como eram as línguas dos dois grupos étnicos rivais da ilha essa capacidade tornou-o um símbolo de tolerância. A sua obra de evangelização afirmou definitivamente o catolicismo no Sri Lanka e deixou marcas no panorama linguístico da ilha onde ainda hoje existem crioulos de origem portuguesa.

Very rare first edition. It was reprinted in Margao in 1867 and in Goa in 1962. It was translated into Italian Venice 1753. The first English translation was published in Colombo Sri Lanka 1848 followed by Calcutta 1897; others in Switzerland 1910 and in London abridged 1913. It was translated into French Mangalore 1897 from the Italian translation. Very important work for the study of the culture of India and Sri Lanka of the Catholic religion and its relations with other religions and local cultures and for the knowledge of the most important Catholic missionary of Goan origin in Portuguese India and Ceylon. Saint Joseph Vaz Benaulim Goa 21 April 1651 - Candia Ceylon 16 January 1711 belonged to the Concanim ethnic and linguistic group and was of the Brahmin caste. He studied humanities philosophy and theology with the Jesuits in Goa. He was ordained a priest in 1676 and distinguished himself as a spiritual director becoming confessor to D. Rodrigo da Costa Governor of India. In 1681 he was appointed superior of the Canará Missions where he was very active restoring the church of Mangalor and building the churches of Barcelor Gangalim and Calianapor all in honour of the Virgin Mary. In 1686 he joined the Congregation of the Oratory of St Philip of Nery formed exclusively of native clerics. In 1687 he travelled to the island of Ceylon where he landed in disguise in the city of Jaffna and began to provide spiritual assistance clandestinely to Catholics persecuted by the VOC Vereenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie / Dutch East India Company which had expelled the Portuguese from the island in 1658. He was imprisoned on charges of being a Portuguese spy but was eventually released through the influence of the King of Candia Vimaladharmasuriya II who although a Buddhist became his friend. During the smallpox epidemic of 1697 he did an exceptional job of caring for the sick and improving sanitary conditions. He learnt to speak Sinhalese and Tamil which he spoke with great elegance and energy. As they were the languages of the two rival ethnic groups on the island this ability made him a symbol of tolerance. His work of evangelisation definitively affirmed Catholicism in Sri Lanka and left its mark on the linguistic landscape of the island where Creoles of Portuguese origin still exist today. He was beatified by Pope John Paul II on 21 January 1995 and canonised by Pope Francis on 14 January 2015. Both ceremonies took place in the city of Colombo in Ceylon now Sri Lanka. Sebastião do Rego Ncura Goa 1699 - 1763 He was a Brahmin was first a secular cleric and parish priest of churches in the diocese of Goa then entered the Congregation of St. Philip Nery in the house of the Oratory of Goa on 20 January 1730. He was the author of sermons published in 1749 and 1759 and left several manuscript works including a Chronicle of the Congregation of the Oratory of Goa published in 2009 by CHAM Centro de Humanidades da FCSH da Universidade Nova de Lisboa.

REVEREND CHARLES G READEBiblio.com

1908 - 1940 LARGE ARCHIVE OF ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARIES HANDWRITTEN BY A MOST DEDICATED EPISCOPALIAN REVEREND CONSUMED WITH HIS DUTIES TO THE POOR SICK AND NEEDY OF CINCINNATI OHIO

1908réf. 0001530CINCINNATI OHIO OH. Good. 1908. On offer is an interesting very detailed archive of 18 original manuscript diaries handwritten by Cincinnati Ohio Reverend Charles G. Reade a man who is consumed by his visits with the poor the grieving the orphaned and needy. Educated prolific and meticulous he rarely misses a day right up until the end of his life. The 18 volumes are dated between 1908 and 1940 with 1915-1918 conspicuously absent and perhaps due to chaplain service in the military. Very detailed there are accounts of visits to the homes of those who've died from influenza and scarlet fever every visit records names and addresses and every restaurant visited. There are also travels recorded including Toronto and Detroit. The Reverend also records weather for every day but most importantly we learn of this pious dedicated man's every good deed every sermon and collector's and historians of the Cincinnati area is a detailed picture of Depression era and pre-World War II Ohio. It is apparent right from the early years that this man is unbelievably tireless in his devotion to the church and community. After the first years there is scarcely a day that passes in which he does not record going out into the community to lead sermons and teachings attend or preside at funerals marriages births and baptisms. When he writes "in office" or "at desk" one almost gets the feeling that there's a lot of guilt in it. Here are some snippets: January 31 1910: "Read Morning Prayer at 9. Taught 4th & 5th grades. Gave help to __ __. He has a job. Unpacked 100p. books & 100 hymnals belonging to city Mission Society. After lunch had funeral of Mrs Clara Hall at Central & 7th & Wesleyan Cemetery. She was probably murdered. Called on Kountz a patient from City Hospital at 3563 Colerain Ave. Paralyzed. Has wife &2 children." Excerpt from Tuesday October 22 1929: "President Hoover's visit to city. At desk in a.m. Wrote several letters. had burial services for Augeust Miller aged 53 died Sunday oct 20. Had been in Longview Hospital a long time." Finally on December 23 1940 Reverend Reade wrote his last entry: "Went to Dr Stewart Hagan's in taxi with Mrs Schreiber. Mr Henry G Mather took me -- taxi $15. Mr & Mrs Gentry & Robert called on us. They are going to Atlanta Ga. Gave $1 to colored clergyman. Talked to Lewis at Marietta O." Then on December 24 1940 Christmas Eve there is a single entry noting Eternal Rest and signed by his son Lewis Reade. Each book is a standard dated yearbook and were in different formats by years; the smallest format is about 3.5 by 6 inches and the largest is about 4.25 by 7 inches. Overall G. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES: One learns from one annual: "Rev. Chas. G. Reade" he was born September 18 1865 and he "took charge" of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church in Cincinnati in 1921. His family originated from the UK he was married to a woman named Nora who returned to England in her last years and had at least two younger brothers who were also reverends in England. He lived to the ripe old age of 75 and kept his journals faithfully right up to the day he passed away.
