réf. 30892 p.l. viii 236 pp. 8vo attractive antique calf double gilt fillet round sides flat spine gilt uncut. Paris: veuve Tilliard et Fils 1805. The rare sale catalogue of the library rich in oriental books and manuscripts of Anquetil-Duperron 1731-1805 French orientalist and brother of the historian Pierre Anquetil. Abraham Hyacinthe had a fascinating early life: while unsuccessfully studying for the priesthood in Paris and Utrecht he developed a passion for Hebrew Arabic Persian and other languages of the East. He travelled to India as a private soldier in 1754 in order to search for the works of Zoroaster. Granted free passage he learned modern Persian in Pondicherry and Sanskrit at Chandernagore. When war broke out between France and England Anquetil-Duperron travelled widely throughout India on foot learning further languages and studying the antiquities and sacred laws of the Hindus. He returned to Europe in an English vessel ultimately arriving in Paris in 1762 with 180 oriental manuscripts. He devoted many of the following years to scholarship editing and publishing many important oriental texts. The French Revolution seems to have greatly affected him: during that period he abandoned society and lived in voluntary poverty on a few pence a day.

Douglas for the Presidency of the United States." Begins with number 1 dated June 30 1860 through number 20 dated November 17 1860.

1865réf. 159071865. the copy of an attendee April 19 1865. Concord Mass.: no printer shown no date but April 16-19. Four-page bifolium. This is the "Order of Services" for the memorial service for Abraham Lincoln who had died just four days earlier. It was held at the First Parish Church of Concord with the Revs. Grindall Reynolds and Thomas Rattray presiding. It is interesting to note that this service was held exactly 90 years -- to the day -- after the Battles of Lexington and Concord. Item VI of IX on the program is "Addresses by R.W. Emerson and Others": Emerson's address is well-documented see EmersonCentral for the complete text; Emerson began with James Russell Lowell's poem about Lincoln which JRL would recite three months later at Harvard Commencement 1865. Quoting from Emerson's address: . This middle-class country had got a middle-class president at last. Yes in manners and sympathies but not in powers for his powers were superior. This man grew according to the need. His mind mastered the problem of the day; and as the problem grew so did his comprehension of it. Rarely was man so fitted to the event. Emerson initially had had mixed feelings about Lincoln: an avowed abolitionist he was frustrated with Lincoln's concentration on preserving the Union rather than immediately abolishing slavery; however with the Emancipation Proclamation Lincoln had won Emerson's full support. This fragile piece is in close-to-fine condition several old folds but little wear. Emerson's address is referred to but not printed within this Order of Services; therefore this leaflet is not listed in Myerson's bibliography -- but for early texts of Emerson's Lincoln address see Myerson E167 D56 D57 G51 & G55. This is quite a scarce piece as presumably copies were printed primarily for the attendees of the Service. That is almost certainly the case with this copy as there are pencil notations on three of the four pages notations that imply attendance. For example the attendee noted which reverend handled the "Selections from Scriptures" and which the "Benediction" noted that the "Hymn" was sung to the tune "Salem" and noted that the "Others" besides Emerson to give addresses were Judge Hoar -- Ebenezer Rockwood Hoar staunch abolitionist and member of the Mass. Supreme Court -- and the Rev. Mr. Rattray. A line from Judge Hoar's address is quoted by the attendee as is a brief account of the assassination. unknown
