1722réf. 55261Offenbach Germany: Israel Ken 1722. Second edition. This is the copy of the Rabbi David Paul-Bernard Drach 1791-1868 who converted to Catholicism in 1823 and managed the library of the Propaganda Fide in Rome. The front endpaper has a note that is signed and dated by Drach: "Etudie et annote ce volume; supplee lets mots ronges par les vers et corrige les fautes typographiques." Notes to margins. Introductory note by Drach lauding the book: "Le calendrier juif dont les calculs sont d'une exactitude admirable etait deja en usage du temps de Rabbie Gamliel pas consequents a l'epoque ou le Verbe eternel caro factum est et habitavit in nobis." 8vo. 40 in Hebrew letters numbered leaves i.e. 80pp. re-cased in later vellum with leather strips. Engraved title page. Fascinating work on the Jewish calendar its estimation calculation of the New Moon methods of chronology et.al. Also contains a few pages on the Christian calendar. This work is one of the most profusely illustrated works of Hebraica and Judaica with charts ephemerides sketches and illustrations throughout. One volvell attached. In Hebrew. First ten leaves with one inch holes from bookworms. The rest of the volome with minor circular bookworm hole. Some loss of text on first ten leaves. "The volvelles as well as hand diagrams and tables were some of the tools used not just for calculating and identifying pivotal dates and worshipping times for Jews but also for ascertaining Christan holidays. This knowledge was a critical aid for protecting Jews from the danger posed by their having different worshipping times and habits from the dominant culture. The headings on the wheel denote the arrival of the new moon which marks the start of the Jewish month and the cycle of the sun. Whereas calendars appear in general to be a "convenient way to coordinate human movements with natural time" as Elisheva Carlebach points out the Sefer 'Evronot demonstrates that the methods for doing so are culturally and historically shaped. The wheel computing information with each push of a finger demands interaction from the reader in order to yield knowledge not just to use but to live by." Ref: brevigrapher.interactive book.

BOHME, Jacob (1575-1624) [BOEHME, BEHMEN]Biblio.com

Signatura rerum. Or the Signature of all Things shewing The sign and signification of the severall forms and shapes in the Creation and what the beginning ruin and cure of every thing is; it proceeds out of eternity into time and comprizeth all mysteries. Written in High Dutch 1622 by Jacob Behmen alias Teutonicus Phylosophus

1651réf. 40032London: John Macock for Giles Calvert 1651. 4to. 7 1/8 x 5 3/8 inches. 8 224 pp. Bound to style in half calf marble paper boards spine with raised bands in six compartments with ruled lines and center tool red lettering piece in second compartment. Rare first English edition of Jacob Böhme's a groundbreaking work of Christian mysticism translated by J. Ellistone which reveals the hidden connections between the material and spiritual worlds through its exploration of the signatures imprinted on all of creation. At once leatherworker mystic and founder of modern theosophy Böhme published little in his lifetime and what was published brought him endless trouble with the Church. Despite this Böhme had a profound influence on later philosophical movements such as German Idealism and German Romanticism with Hegel describing him as "the first German philosopher". Böhme was born in Alt Seidenberg now in present-day Poland. Deemed too weak for husbandry Böhme was sent to Seidenberg as an apprentice to become a shoemaker. While he lived with a family who was not Christian Böhme regularly prayed and read the Bible and consumed the works of visionaries such as Paracelsus Weigel and Schwenckfeld. After leaving his apprenticeship Böhme travelled as far as Görlitz before returning as a master craftsman to set up his own workshop and started a family. Böhme later joined the "Conventicle of God's Real Servants" - a parochial study group organized by poet and mystic Martin Moller. Since his youth Böhme often had spiritual experiences including one that occurred while he was travelling for business where as he later recalled was "surrounded with a divine light and stood in the highest contemplation and kingdom of joys." This title The Signature of All Things written in High Dutch in 1622 following a series of Böhme's mystic experiences appears here in the first English edition. In it Böhme explains systematically the cosmology that lies at the heart of his whole mystical approach and experience revealing his mystical pantheism and his dialectical conception of God in which good and evil are rooted in one and the same being. The book is a highly symbolic work that deals with the nature of God creation and the relationship between the spiritual and physical worlds. In brief Böhme's thesis can be summarised thus: everything in the material world bears the imprint or "signature" of its spiritual counterpart and that by understanding these signatures one can gain insight into the divine. The present work is the title for which Böhme is most famous and it is invoked by James Joyce in the Proteus episode in Ulysses "Ineluctable modality of the visible." Bohme's ideas had a significant influence on later mystics philosophers and theologians including Goethe Nietzsche and Jung. Signatura Rerum remains a classic work of Christian mysticism and esoteric philosophy and is still studied and debated by scholars and practitioners today.
