1863In-16 p. (mm. 172x101), brossura orig. (picc. manc. al dorso), pp. 58, con fregio xilografato al frontespizio. Rara "prima edizione italiana" di questo libretto stampato a Napoli. L’autore era giunto a Napoli al seguito di Garibaldi che lo aveva nominato Direttore onorario delle Belle Arti. Spirito vulcanico, vi fondò il giornale ‘L’Indipendente’ e si occupò degli scavi di Pompei. Il libretto fu scritto a commento di un processo che aveva appena concluso il clamoroso giallo di un omicidio: vittima, un orologiaio napoletano, tal Francesco Ruffa. L'assassinio era avvenuto nell’agosto del 1862, un anno dopo l’Unità d’Italia, quando i codici non erano stati ancora unificati. Solo in Toscana era già stata abrogata la pena di morte mentre vigeva ancora a Napoli. Di fatto, però, i magistrati napoletani - aperti a quel rinnovamento culturale e morale che sul solco di Cesare Beccaria propugnava l'abolizione della pena capitale - ricorrevano sistematicamente a stratagemmi e a cavilli per non applicarla, anche a costo di forzature paradossali. Così, nel caso dell'omicidio Ruffa, la giuria accordò agli assassini le attenuanti generiche per poterli condannare ai lavori forzati, anziché alla fucilazione. Contro questa sentenza insorse Alessandro Dumas, che in polemica elegante ma dura con i magistrati scrisse "La pena di morte e il giurì napoletano". (dall’articolo di V. A. Stagno su L'Onda Razzista, 1983). Testo ben conservato, con ex libris di Cesare Correnti e la dedica autografa al frontespizio “De la part de l’auteur / A Dumas”.

1937rif. 0001744ITALY EGYPT THE HOLY LAND. Good. 1937. On offer is an interesting original photo journal created and compiled by Reverend Alex D. Riccio as he states on the first page wherein he has drawn the words "1930-1934 Remembrances of my stay in Europe Rev. Alex D. Riccio." In all there are approximately 184 photos all original save for a handful of real photo postcards all dated between 1930 - 1934. The first 133 photos are exactly that and one sees immediately the trip was a religious 'Grand Tour' as there are many photos of Catholic priests and students at a particular seminary in what is most certainly Italy. The names Cascine and Cortile Cortale are written on some of the photos. He also visits Jerusalem and Egypt with photos from those places also. Some other inscriptions include: "Avro from window; waiters at Council dinner taken in Cortile; Church of St. Claire Assisi; Feast of St. Magdalene; St. Paul's Rome; Facade of Holy Sepulcher; Mount Tabor; Unity of cars before entering into Jerusalem; Inside view of Mosque; Valley of Jehoshaphat; Mosque of Omar; Pyramids of Cairo; Garden of Olives; On board ship Palestine; Bethlehem" and many many more. In a later part of the album are 51 more photos: a number of wedding photos but 17 of them show the results of the great flood of 1936. I believe most of them are taken of the state of Maine possibly Portland Middletown and Cromwell. Some of these are also marked on the back. Many are rather incredible photos too. Most of the photos in this particular album are NOT glued in but placed in the album using the four corner mounts. Most of the photos are black and white and in good shape. The album itself as far as the pages and binding is in great shape but the cover is in bad shape. It is very worn around the edges and has fallen away from the binding. The leather cover features a super art deco design. It measures about 8" x 10 ¾". Please note: this is one of two photo albums compiled by Riccio. The related album is specific to his time at Fordham University. SELLER ID 0001743; Manuscript; 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF GREAT NEW ENGLAND FLOOD ALEX D.

1849rif. 4387New York:: V.G. Audubon 1849-54. First Royal Octavo Edition. Fine with original hand-coloring. A fine original hand-colored lithograph on paper. Royal Octavo 10.5 x 7 inches. Drawn from nature by John Audubon drawn on stone by William E. Hitchcock and lithographed printed and colored by JT Bowen Philadelphia. Accompanied by the original text written by the Reverend John Bachman DD. The Quadrupeds of North America; portrayals of 155 four-legged mammals native to North America depicted in their natural environment was a collaborative effort between the premier nineteenth century American Ornithologist Naturalist Artist and Frontiersman John James Audubon 1785-1851 his sons John Woodhouse Audubon and Victor Gifford Audubon and the naturalist Reverend John Bachman. The four men were unified in their desire to document and portray what they recognized as a dwindling resource; America's native animals amidst the natural beauty of the untouched American landscape. Their collective wisdom predicted the impending effects of Manifest Destiny- man's encroachment on the wilderness and natural landscape of North America- and as such was the impetus for the journey. To document and then portray America's native animals in the splendor and majesty of the uninhabited North American landscape the team traveled westward from Audubon's home in Mill Grove Pennsylvania up the Missouri River and through territory just previously explored by Lewis and Clark; from the Canadian border of the Northern Russian Territories- now Alaska- then southward to Mexico. Arduous and monumental the journey is recognized in the pathos of the compositions. However the true legacy of the work rests on John James Audubon's prolific vision and mastery of his subject and medium. Heretofore unseen The Quadrupeds of North American is a wildlife classic: an essential and timeless contribution to both Early American culture and the Art of American Wildlife Painting. The American Review a Whig journal heralded the national origin of the Quadrupeds: "We have at last have a Great National Work; originated and completed among us- authors artists and artisans of which are our own citizens the Bible of Nature!"

In the course of these journeys most of the intervening country was prospected and the geology was noted'. He then undertook 'an exploration in the less known portions of the interior. Our course was from Mount Wells to Mount Douglas and thence south-eastward across the ranges to the Eveleen mine. From thence we traced the River Mary to its sources and then having crossed a small patch of tableland reached the upper waters of the Katherine which we followed down to the telegraph station; from thence we proceeded along the line to Pine Creek. I returned to Palmerston by the overland route from Southport'. E. Spiller, Government Printer unknown

1773rif. 46406198, 1773 ; in-4, basane brune marbrée de l’époque. 335 pagesTraduction inédite en vers des Métamorphoses. Le premier feuillet indique : «Monsieur Girard Prêtre curé de Bémécour proche Breteuil Diocese d'Évreux, est autheure de cette traduction des Métamorphoses d'Ovide en vers françois, que j'ay transcrite sur l'original écrit de sa main, que M. Girard Curé de Préaux au Perche, son frère et son héritier me confia (...) pour revoir l'ouvrage en entier, ce que l'auteur prévenu par la mort, n'avoit pu faire. Et parce qu'il jettoit sur le papier ses vers à mesure qu'il les composoit quoy que de differente mesure, j'ai donc rangé chacun d'eux en sa place, avec attention à la ponctuation régulière, ainsi qu'aux virgules ( ... ) ce qui dez lors me fit naître le dessein de chercher les moîens de le mettre au jour à la faveur de l'impression. Mais dans le temps que je m'occupois de ce projet avec mon ami, à peine lui avois-je remis en main le manuscrit, que la mort me l'enleva aussi en peu de jours ( ... ) Je m'adressai donc à une personne aussi distinguée par son goust connu pour les sciences, que par sa haute naissance [Monseigr le Duc de Sully note] qui m'honoroit de la bienveillance...» Ce dernier lui répondit qu'il avait a présenté l'ouvrage à divers imprimeurs, en vain. « Nous ne sommes plus, Mr dans le tems où le goust pour les bons ouvrages les faisoit rechercher ; de frivoles écrits, des nouveautés dangereuses, l'appétit du gain par le prompt et prodigieux débit, qui s'en faict chez le vulgaire qui les dévore, tout cela ferme chez les imprimeurs l'entrée aux bons écrits ( ... )» Ce manuscrit est de la main de P. Le Sueur, curé de Ménil-Erreux(Orne) Page 319 on lit : « Achevé de transcrire le présent ouvrage malgré ma main rebelle et tremblante, ce 16 Novembre 1773 et de mon âge 74 ans et 7 mois accomplis. P. Le Sueur curé de Ménil Erreux». Ce Girard avait fait paraître anonymement un recueil de fables à Rouen en 1729 , ainsi lit-on dans Archives du bibliophile, bulletin de l’amateur II, 2810 que Les Malheurs des enfants du Parnasse est “suivant une note manuscrite, de M. Girard, curé de Bemecourt...”Page 266 on trouve la table des 24 Métamorphoses. Suit (pp. 268 à 319) une série de notices sur les dieux, héros et personnages mythologiques de Métamorphoses « pour donner au lecteur une idée de l'antiquité payenne, du nombre et de la turpitude de ses dieux et déesses et de l'extravagante imagination de l'homme abandonné à ses propres lumières, disons-mieux, à ses propres ténèbres ». Les pages 320 à 35 contiennent : J.B. ROUSSEAU. Stances sur les misères de l'homme avec une traduction latine de ce poème ; une homélie en latin sur la Résurrection de J. Christ par le R.P. Pierre VAULGEARD, bénédictin, professeur de rhétorique pendant 42 ans au Collège de Tyron au Perche. «Je la prononçay le jeudy d'avant la quasimodo 1716 dans la classe de Rhétorique ( ... ) comme elle eut un grand applaudissement, je l'ay conservée précieusement jusqu'icy. Ce morceau d'éloquence est peut-être unique en son genre». - Suit : L'Horloge de Sable, figure du monde par un Solitaire. Ce poème de Gilles de CAUX (1682- 1733) avait paru à Paris chez Sevestre en 1714

A 1.ª edição foi publicada em Coimbra pelo impressor Manuel Dias em 1655. Esta 2.ª Edição é bastante rara pois não consta dos principais catálogos de leilões e de livreiros. Existe uma variante em que os cabeções e iniciais são todos diferentes incluindo o florão de remate no final do índice. Obra muito importante para o estudo da história do direito em especial porque os contratos enfitêuticos mantiveram-se em uso em Portugal até cerca da segunda metade do século XX e no Brasil até 2003. Importante também para o estudo do instituto dos morgadios em Portugal. O autor trata com grande pormenor de dois tipos de contratos: 1.º - O Censo que podia ter pelo menos duas formas - censo consignativo e censo reservativo. No primeiro uma das partes entrega à outra uma determinada quantia em dinheiro ficando a segunda obrigada a pagar-lhe uma renda. O segundo consiste na cedência do domínio de um bem a uma parte ficando esta na obrigação de pagar uma pensão anual pelos rendimentos do bem cedido. 2.º - A enfiteuse é um instituto jurídico oriundo do Direito Romano e consiste Segundo J. M. de Carvalho Santo a enfiteuse também dita de emprazamento e de aforamento designa o contrato pelo qual o proprietário de terreno alodial cede a outrem o direito de percepção de toda utilidade do mesmo terreno seja temporária ou perpetuamente com o encargo de lhe pagar uma pensão ou foro anual e a condição de conservar para si o domínio direto.

EN In folio. 28.8x20.7 cm. xvi 618 xlviii pp. Contemporary full leather binding with raised bands and gilt tools on spine. Copy showing signs of wear on the binding especially at the head of the spine with a small moth hole on the folders with superficial flaws of leather and at the corners.

The preliminary leaves contain: the author's extensive dedication to Manuel de Faria Severim the author's Prologue Licences from 22 June to 2 July 1651 of the first edition with approvals from Francisco Távora Provincial of the Society of Jesus; Friar António Veloso and Friar Valério de São Raimundo and from 22 July 1678 to 24 September 1682 with approval of this 2nd edition by Gaspar de Lemos Galvão. They also include an index of the titles of the parts of the work and the disputes into which they are divided. The final pages contain the subject index and two blank pages. The 1st edition was published in Coimbra by the printer Manuel Dias in 1655. This 2nd Edition is quite rare as it doesn't appear in the main auction and bookseller catalogues. There is a variant in which the headpieces and initials are all different including the finishing fleuron at the end of the table of contents. Very important book for the study of the history of law especially as emphyteutical contracts remained in use in Portugal until around the second half of the 20th century and in Brazil until 2003. It is also important for studying the institute of morgadios Majorats in Portugal. The author deals in great detail with two types of contracts: 1st - The Census which could take at least two forms - consignative census and reservative census. In the former one of the parties gives the other a certain amount of money and the latter is obliged to pay rent. The second consists of one party transferring control of an asset to the other who is obliged to pay an annual pension for the income from the asset. 2nd. - The emphyteusis is a legal institute that originated in Roman Law and consists according to J. M. de Carvalho Santo of an emphyteusis also known as an emprazamento or aforamento which is the contract by which the owner of allodial land assigns to another the right to perceive all the usefulness of the same land either temporarily or in perpetuity with the burden of paying an annual pension or rent and the condition of retaining the direct domain for himself.

rif. 012493Révérend Père Augustin Colombel (1833-1905), missionnaire jésuite en Chine, père de l'astronomie moderne en Chine à qui on doit la construction de l'observatoire de Shanghai. L.A.S., Eglise Saint Joseph, Shanghai, 11 octobre 1892, 4p in-8. A sa soeur Marie-Thérèse Colombel (1839-1912), baronne Richerand : « Ma bien chère sour, Je suis bien souvent avec vous de cour et de prières. J'espère que le Bon Dieu continue à bénir l'affaire du mariage de ta fille. Je suis fort édifié de l'esprit de foi qui vous conduit à cette affaire. Le Bon Dieu la bénira. Vous prenez le bon moyen d'assurer l'avenir, tenez toujours les yeux sur la volonté de Dieu. Lui seul a l'avenir entre les mains. J'espère que les prochaines malles me donneront des nouvelles plus complètes. [...] Tu sais maintenant que St Antoine de Padoue nous a exaucé. Les deux nappes d'autel sont arrivées, d'abord la petite, puis la grande. La M. Dominique les a fait monter, la petite pour l'autel de La Chapelle de congrégation où je dis la messe les jours de réunion, la grande pour le grand autel de leur chapelle où je dis la messe presque tous les jours. Elles ont servi déjà souvent. Je les reconnais aussitôt. Je suis heureux de penser que votre long travail sert à la gloire de Dieu. Merci encore. J'ai reçu aussi la brochure que je demandais sur la cour chinoise, merci encore. Je vois avec plaisir qu'on commence à mieux connaître la Chine de convention qui est bien loin de la vraie. Cette vrai Chine une fois connue témoignera bien. haut en faveur de la vraie religion qui seule peut la sauver. Priez souvent pour la conversion de la Chine. Elle déterminerait celle de l'Asie... Dieu seul peut faire ce miracle. Demandons-le. Les journaux, les télégrammes nous ont parlé de votre choléra. Nous qui l'avons presque toujours, nous en avons été préservé d'une manière singulière. Eté horriblement chaud, sans pluie, sans orages, et pas un seul cas de choléra à l'hôpital. En même temps, le télégramme apportait aux journaux les nouvelles de votre épidémie. Ces télégrammes, tous anglais, exagéraient le choléra de Paris, battaient la caisse pour clamer l'immunité de l'Angleterre. En réalité, la France, je crois, a été peu éprouvée et vous en êtes tirés désormais. Je voyais ce matin un journal (anglais naturellement) expliquant que Paris se fournit en désinfectant pour ses rues à Londres. J4ai lu ce que les journaux disaient de vos grandes chaleurs. Ici le thermomètre montait plus haut, mais elle n'ont causé aucune épidémie. Je voyais qu'en Amérique des chaleurs moindres que les nôtres tuaient chevaux ou piétons. Ici rien de semblable. Je te remercie encore de ce que tu as fait pour Léon Hambert(?). Je me suis attaché à cet enfant, que je n'ai jamais vu, à cause de l'affection de notre père pour le sien. Ces pauvres enfants ont beaucoup perdu en perdant leur mère. Si l'aîné est à Paris, fais-lui tout le bien que tu pourras. Salue les de ma part. D'après ce que leur père me dit d'eux, il doit y avoir beaucoup de bon. Dès lors, on peut corriger ce qui est moins bon. Les sours de charité ont été éprouvées cette année. La plus ancienne des sours de l'hôpital est morte. Une autre fort vieille est morte à Hantcheou (?). Ce sont deux vides et il vient peu de nouvelles de France. [...] Adieu chère sour, je vous embrasse tout bien fort. Ton frère Augustin. » Belle lettre avec des détails autour de la mission. Cette lettre a été publié avec quelques autres sur le blog du Bibliomane Moderne le 14 octobre 2021. Elles apportent un éclairage particulièrement intéressant sur le développement des missions jésuites en Chine et à Shanghai en particulier. [242]
1870rif. 030898LONDON: George Bell & Sons 1870 A nice set of the second edition of Morris's History of British Birds. In 6 volumes with original decorative cloth bindings and 365 hand coloured plates as called for. The bindings are all clean with bright gilt pictures of birds to each front board and gilt titles and decoration to spine. There is some wear: volume I has some cloth splitting at the hinges and splitting at the rear endpaper with rubbing to corners; volumes II III and IV have very slight pulling to top and bottom of spine and a little rubbing at corners; volume V has very small splits at the top and bottom of the spine; and volume VI has a 1 inch tear at the top of the spine with no loss and scuffing at the corners. Internally all have the original endpapers; the first section including the frontispiece is becoming loose on volumes I II and III; volume IV is sound but the stitching is looser than on the others. There is a little spotting to some plates and text pages but in general the contents are very clean looking unread and the plates are bright and well coloured. A few plates in volume III lack tissue guards and the plate of the Whitethroat is present but detached. Volume 5 has 4 plates present but detached: the Little Stint Schinz's Sandpiper Pochard and Polish Swan - and pages 131-134 the same. A few pages have been roughly opened and a few have darkening to edges. Overall the set is complete with bright bindings and well coloured plates. George Bell & Sons hardcover
