1786réf. 378066France 1786. 6pp plus integral blank. Folio. Modern boards. Provenance: Jay Snider booklabel. 6pp plus integral blank. Folio. An unpublished manuscript ode on the wonders of electricity written in 20 stanzas of decasyllabic 10-line units dizains. The author Marc-Antoine Lazare Malot was a lawyer and the King's prosecutor at Avallon in Burgundy and submitted this poem to l'Académie de Marseille on August 25 1786 for which he received a prize. The thirteenth stanza contains lines on Benjamin Franklin: Le Modeste Franklin s'arme contre l'orage Et va chercher la foudre en ses plus noirs foyers ; Il lui prescrit sa route ; et du sein du nuage Sans bruit la fait descendre et mourir à ses pieds. De cette même main qui termina la guerre Qui de la liberté dans un autre hémisphère Sur rappeller défendre et raffermir les droits Il impose silence au maître du tonnerre Il désarme les dieux du ciel et de la terre L'inclémence des airs la vengeance des rois. Roughly translated: The modest Franklin arms himself against the storm And goes to seek the lightning in its darkest lairs; He prescribes its path; and from the heart of the cloud Silently makes it descend and die at his feet. With that same hand that ended the war That in another hemisphere recalled defended And reasserted the rights of liberty He silences the master of the thunder He disarms the gods of sky and earth The inclemency of the skies the vengeance of kings. unknown

1659réf. 29260Lyons: Antoine Cellier 1659. First Description of Aortic Stenosis RIVIERE Lazare 1589-1655. Observationum medicarum & curationum insignium centurae tres. . . . Edited by Simeon Jacoz. 4to. 8 311 9pp. Lyons: Antoine Cellier 1659. 225 x 167 mm. Speckled sheep c. 1659 rubbed small wormhole in front cover. Some foxing browning & dampstaining old repair to one leaf. Very good copy. Old signature and notes on endpapers. First Edition. Riviere was the first to describe stenosis of the aortic valve from a case that he treated in 1646. GM 2727 cites Riviere's description of this condition in his Opera medica universa 1674 of which the present work is the first edition; the description appears here on p. 177 and is entitled "Cordis palpitatio & pulsus inaequalitas." Riviere also brought Paracelsian iatrochemistry into the curriculum of the University of Montpellier and it was under his auspices that Alexander Fraser introduced the Harviean theory of the circulation into the University's curriculum in 1636. An edition of the present work was published in The Hague in the same year as this Lyons edition. As Riviere was French it is reasonable to presume that the Lyons edition was first. Hirsch.

1535réf. ST19567-017Paris: Jean Bignan apud Ambroise Girault 1535. 163 x 108 mm. 6 1/2 x 4 1/4". 68 pp. 5 leaves.Edited by Charles Estienne. Old 17th century stiff vellum flat spine title in ink. Front pastedown with book plate of the Macclesfield South Library first two leaves with very small Macclesfield embossed stamp. Colas USTC 204573. See Renouard "Estienne" p. 42 #16. Vellum on rear cover roughened small water spot to front cover but the binding entirely sound and quite fresh and clean internally. Abridged and edited for schoolchildren by the scholar physician and printer Charles Estienne this is a treatise on the customary dress and fashions in ancient Rome. It is among the best-known works of the distinguished humanist and diplomat Lazare de Baïf 1485-1547 who also produced respected translations of the Greek dramatists and published treatises on other aspects of ancient life including vases and ships. Charles Estienne 1504 or 1505-64 for a time served as tutor to Baïf's son Jean Antoine who became a famous poet. Charles' brother Robert also published this title in 1535 but Renouard believes Girault's printing might have come first. Colas gives priority to the Estienne press. Because Girault's printing contains additions and corrections that don't appear in Robert's edition it seems more likely that this was the later printing if only by a matter of weeks. The Girault edition is uncommon in the marketplace. The provenance is significant here as our volume was part of the great library of the earls of Macclesfield which was sold in 12 sales at Sotheby's from 16 March 2004 to 2 October 2008 for some £22 million approximately $40 million at the time. The library was dispersed when the 9th Earl Macclesfield Richard Timothy George Mansfield Parker b. 1943 who was described by the "Independent" as leading an "unconventional lifestyle" was forced to leave his 14th century Shirburn Castle after a protracted family dispute. Called by the paper "a sleeping beauty" his crenellated home had a moat a drawbridge and at the time of the Earl's departure a repair bill of approximately £2.6 million. Despite the building's dilapidation the books in the very large library were distinguished for being uniformly well preserved were almost always in their original bindings and were a sensation at auction for more than four years.

Joseph Lazarus 18761940 e o seu irmão mais velho Maurice Lazarus 18661949 eram de origem judaica britânica naturais da região de Sunderland no nordeste de Inglaterra. A família emigrou para a Ãfrica do Sul e no final do século XIX os dois irmãos dedicaram-se à fotografia passando por Barberton antes de se estabelecerem em Lourenço Marques actual Maputo Moçambique por volta de 1899. Foram fotógrafos pioneiros em Moçambique onde fundaram o estúdio J. & M. Lazarus. Através da fotografia documentaram o crescimento urbano os acontecimentos oficiais as comunidades locais e o quotidiano da cidade produzindo também postais ilustrados e álbuns fotográficos de elevado valor histórico.

Luiz Filipe herdeiro da coroa de Portugal em Julho-Setembro de 1907. Posteriormente transferiram a sua atividade para Lisboa onde abriram a Photographia Ingleza um estúdio reconhecido pela realização de retratos da elite portuguesa. Um recibo datado de 1929 comprova a continuidade da sua atividade e o prestígio alcançado em Portugal.

An important album that documents and serves as an official snapshot of Lourenço Marques in the early 20th century. It captures a city that was undergoing rapid transformation: streets public buildings hotels gardens shops the harbour the beach markets and various aspects of the population such as photographs of the Hotel Club the Post Office Praça 7 de Março now Praça 25 de Junho Ponta Vermelha Polana beach and other locations allowing a comparison between the city of 1901 and present-day Maputo. Joseph Lazarus 18761940 and his elder brother Maurice Lazarus 18661949 were of British Jewish origin hailing from the Sunderland area in north-east England. The family emigrated to South Africa and towards the end of the 19th century the two brothers took up photography passing through Barberton before settling in Lourenço Marques now Maputo Mozambique around 1899. They were pioneering photographers in Mozambique where they founded the J. & M. Lazarus studio. Through their photography they documented urban growth official events local communities and everyday life in the city whilst also producing picture postcards and photographic albums of great historical value. Their work became an important source for the study of Mozambiques colonial history; among other things they documented with photographs the visit to Mozambique by Prince D. Luiz Filipe heir to the Portuguese throne in JulySeptember 1907. They subsequently moved their business to Lisbon where they opened Photographia Ingleza a studio renowned for producing portraits of the Portuguese elite. A receipt dated 1929 attests to the continuity of their work and the prestige they had achieved in Portugal. Today the legacy of the Lazarus brothers is widely recognised by the Portuguese Centre of Photography and by researchers and is considered an important documentary heritage for the study of photography history and the collective memory of Mozambique and Portugal.

His close connection to the classical humanists in François I's circle has led some to speculate that the fine woocuts herein came from the worshop of Geoffroy Tory.

With a woodcut printer's device on the title-page. 52 3 1 blank pp. Second instalment of the first children's books series ever printed. The work contains a description of ancient Roman vessels and was specifically printed for the entertainment and edification of children. This second edition by Estienne is very rare. It was not known to some of the early bibliographers and has not been on the market since 1947.The work is part of a series on Roman antiquities written by Lazare de Baïf 1496-1547 around 1530. The present work is the second title in the three-part series. It discusses ancient Roman vessels containers dishes vases and receptacles complete with an index in alphabetical order at the end. De Baïf's work was edited and abridged by Charles Estienne 1505-1564 scholar physician and younger brother of printer Robert Estienne 1503-1559. His work met great success and many editions of the different parts of the series were printed in the 1530s and 40s.De Baïf was a humanist poet and wealthy diplomat. He was the French ambassador in Venice and Germany. He hired Charles Estienne as a Latin tutor for his son Jean-Antoine de Baïf 1532-1589 who later became a poet. Estienne initially abridged De Baïf's works to provide simplified Latin readings for his student but soon published it for the enjoyment of other children as well. He was an elegant writer of Latin verse and is commended by poet Joachim du Bellay as having introduced a few valuable words into the French language.With a small water-stain in the outer corner of the leaves throughout not affecting the text.

The earliest illustrated work on metallurgy in English. The first part is Pettus' translation of Lazarus Ercker's work on mining and metals. Ercker 1530-1594 Inspector General of Mines in the Austro-Hungarian Empire who first published his study in 1574 discusses lab procedures equipment and how to construct furnaces. Sir John Pettus of Suffolk Kt. of the Society for the Mines Royal 1613-1690 was deputy Governor of the royal mines for over 35 years. His lexicography of metals is the first dictionary of metalurgy and metals in English. Pettus fell into debt and finished this work in the Fleet debtors' prison - hence the odd title Fleta Minor. 43 large engravings illustrate the equipment and procedures being described with workmen wearing contemporary English costume.
