1725réf. 687051725. Danzig zu finden bey Cornelius von Beughem gedruckt von Thomas Johann Schreiber 1725 8° 24 Bl. 28 Kupfer auf 10 Taf.; Danzig 1725 36 Bl. Halbpergamenteinband; feines Expl. Sehr seltene dritte Ausgabe der "Anatomischen Tabellen" nebst erster Auflage der "Anmerkungen welche den Anatomischen Tabellen zu mehrer Erläuterung und deutlichem Begrieffe beygefüget" welche erstmals hier 1725 beigefügt worden sind. Diese beiden Teile wurden dann in den späteren Auflagen vereinigt und zu dem bekanntesten Kompendium der Anatomie des 18.Jhdts. Dieses Werk "stellte den ersten erfolgreichen Versuch dar den Wissensstoff der Anatomie der in den vergangenen zwei Jahrhunderten seit dem Erscheinen des Buches von Andreas Vesals "De corporis humani fabrica" im Jahre 1543 gewaltig angewachsen war in übersichtlicher und leicht lernbarer Form zusammenzufassen und mit Bildern zu erläutern." H.Goerke Die Beziehungen Japans zur europäischen Medizin im 18.Jhdt. J.Jap.Soc.Med.Hist. 20 1974 pp.418-388 Johann Adam Kulmus 1689-1745 aus Breslau war Schüler von Herman Boerhaave 1668-1738 und des Anatomen Bernhard Albinus 1833-1721 in Leiden. Nach einer Studienreise durch Holland war er als Arzt in Danzig tätig und Professor für Medizin und Physik am Gymnasium in Danzig und hatte dort für seine Schüler und für Wundärzte die "Anatomischen Tabellen" verfaßt. Durch holländische Seefahrer gelangte sein Werk auch nach Japan und wurde übersetzt und unter dem Titel "Kaitai shinsho" von R.Mayeno herausgegeben. Dieses Buch war der Grundstein westlicher Medizin in Japan. Foundation of western Medicine in Japan! The rare third and first complete of edition "Die Anatomische Tabellen" is the first edition of "Anmerkungen welche den Anatomischen Tabellen zu mehrer Erläuterung und deutlichem Begrieffe beygefüget". The later editions combined these two parts. The Compendium became very well known and wide-spread and it was the first anatomical compendium of modern medicine v. Goecke. The first edition is extremely rare since it was only designed for the use of Kulmus' students. The "Anatomische Tabellen" were even translated into Japanese. After the Japanese physicians MAYENO RYOTAKU 1723-1804 GENPAKU SUGITA 1733-1817 and JUN'AN NAKAGAWA 1739-1786 had convinced themselves the 4th of March 1771 in Kotsukappara near Edo by the dissection of an executed about 50 years old Japanese woman Aocha-Baba Mother Green Tea that those "Tabellen" presented the true anatomical relations thus demonstrated that anatomy as it had been taught in Japan up to that time was false. "The book in no way differed from what we saw before us. If we could translate parts of this Tâheru Anatomia we could gain a clear understanding entirely and advance medicine beyond its present level." Genpaku Sugita Rangaku katohajime 1815. So Kaitai Shinsho New Book on Human Dissections was the first complete translation of a medical work which originated on a German text. It represented an empirical approach to nature which was undermining the prestige of Chinese medicine in Japan. It took about 4 years and eleven attempts to translate it and was edited by GENPAKU SUGITA in 1774. The translator MAYENO RYOTAKU didn't sign it because of his extreme modesty. -cf. Hirsch-H.

WITH A FINE BRIGHTLY COLORED FORE-EDGE PAINTING OF THE CRAIGMILLAR CASTLE RUINS WITH EDINBURGH IN THE DISTANCE. WITH 50 ENGRAVED VIGNETTES 60 x 85 mm. of the ruins of Scottish castles and abbeys. A Large Paper Copy. Front pastedown with engraved armorial bookplate of Christopher Turnor Stoke Rochford Library. Lowndes 370; ESTC T153718 but with a variant title page. Front cover with a couple small areas of lost patina from insect activity rear cover just slightly marked upper corners a bit bumped faint freckled foxing in the margins more noticeable on the first two leaves slight offsetting of engravings on facing blank versos. A few condition issues but still a very attractive book the lovely binding retaining virtually all of its antique appeal and the contents with nothing approaching a significant problem. This is an excellent atypically large example of an Edwards of Halifax binding enhanced with a most appealing early fore-edge painting depicting one of the castles pictured in this attractive quarto edition. Scottish surgeon and antiquary Adam de Cardonnel 1746/7 - 1820 wrote and illustrated the present work "to preserve from oblivion the ancient remains of Caledonian splendour." Originally intended as a supplement to the popular "Pennant's Tour" of Scotland it appeared in four parts the first two in 1788 in a few different forms including an octavo edition and the second two published in 1793. The fore-edge painting features Craigmillar castle a Medieval fortress located a few miles from Edinburgh whose most famous guest was Mary Queen of Scots. One of her stays resulted in the so-called "Craigmillar bond" which set in motion plans to dispatch Mary's husband Henry Stuart. By the late 18th century the castle had fallen into disrepair and it appears in the present painting as an idyllic ruin with sheep and cows grazing in the fore-ground and the city with Edinburgh Castle rising in the distance. The Edwards of Halifax bindery was founded by William Edwards 1723-1808 and continued by several of his brothers half-brothers and sons by far the most important of the sons being Thomas who lived from 1762-1834. This famous firm produced a number of important innovations in binding design the most significant being the idea of concealing a painting under the gilt of the fore edge. This hidden treasure could be revealed once the edge was fanned out as a special surprise element of the volumes the Edwards firm bound--typically in Etruscan calf as here or in their patented transparent vellum. Although bindings produced by the Edwards workshop are almost never signed the present item is surely Edwards' work as indicated by the characteristic binding style and by the fact that our volume was actually sold by the Edwards firm. As usual there is no clear way to assign a precise date to the painting; while it is not done in the soft grays that can be firmly associated with the earliest Edwards examples it clearly is a painting done before 1850. While fore-edge paintings likely produced at the Edwards bindery and especially produced by their imitators appear in the marketplace with some regularity most offered are octavo or duodecimo in size. Of the fore-edge paintings attributed to Edwards of Halifax that have appeared in RBH over the past 65 years fewer than one in 10 were on quarto volumes. This copy was previously owned by the MP Christopher Turnor 1809-86 a member of the House of Commons and owner of more than 20000 acres in Linconshire where he built the grand Stoke Rochford Hall. Printed for the Author, and sold by Edwards, in Pall Mall; Also by Edwards's, in Halifax unknown

Eclairez votre religion - Aux enfants rouges Enlighten your Religion - To the Red Children

1932réf. 86460Paris: Bureau d'Éditions et de Diffusion 1932. Fine. Bureau d'Éditions et de Diffusion Paris 1932 18 x 23.50 cm agrafé First edition. Illustrated with 16 drawings by Georges Adam. A superb copy of this rare booklet by Louis Aragon a true ""anti-clerical anti-capitalist anti-colonialist anti-patriotic"" Pierre Juquin catechism for the children of the exploited working masses. ""On June 25 1932 the Imprimerie centrale completed printing for the Bureau des éditions et de diffusion 132 Faubourg Saint-Denis Paris a beautiful pamphlet now a bibliophilic rarity . On the cover a large red star - an important and recurrent image in Aragon's work - appears imprinted on children's brains. Sixteen quatrains droll and didactic punctuated for ease of reading alternate with drawings by Georges Adam whose nearly expressionist mockery reminiscent of Rouault's paintings overturns taboos and myths."" Aragon. Un destin français 1897-1939 After breaking with the Surrealists Aragon threw himself wholeheartedly into the Journal de la lutte antireligieuse. He wrote this pamphlet from Moscow and published it on the Party's presses to ignite the fervor of proletarian youth. French poet Jacques Prévert would later follow a similar path with his play Émasculée conception. Anticlerical activism within French Communist associations was in full swing at the time: every symbol and events of religious life were reinterpreted through the lens of class struggle. ""Red baptisms"" were organised forming a community of ""Godless"" children drawing their name from the Association of Godless Workers who corresponded with their Soviet counterparts. Aragon contributed to these new rituals with this particularly radical children's book deemed excessively antipatriotic by Maurice Thorez which he would later disavow at the end of his life.

réf. 04374Paris: Maison Martinet - Hautecoeur Frères 1860. The Animals of the Jardin des Plantes With Twenty-Four Superb Hand-Colored Lithographed Plates An Exceptionally Rare French Juvenile Natural History ADAM Albert illustrator. ROSTAING Jules. Le Jardin des Plantes en Estampes. Dessiné et Lithographié par A. Adam. Accompagné d'une Histoire de Tous les Animaux que Possède la Ménagerie par Jules Rostaing. Paris: Maison Martinet - Hautecoeur Frères 1860. First edition. Large oblong quarto 10 3/16 x 13 1/2 inches; 259 x 343 mm. iv 30 1 table 1 blank pp. With twenty-four superb hand-colored lithographed plates by Albert Adam many containing multiple images and heightened with gum arabic. Some light foxing to the text leaves only; the plates exceptionally bright and clean. Publisher's black pebble-grain cloth front cover elaborately pictorially stamped and lettered in gilt with a central wreath enclosing the title and surrounded by vignettes of animals and their habitats; lower cover with central decoration stamped in blind; yellow coated endpapers. Front inner hinge expertly and almost invisibly repaired. Neat early ink inscription on front fly-leaf dated 1860. An excellent copy. A wonderfully evocative pictorial tour of the celebrated Ménagerie du Jardin des Plantes in Paris presenting its exotic inhabitants in a series of richly hand-colored lithographs. Rather than illustrating the animals simply as isolated zoological specimens Adam frequently places them within their enclosures and surroundings sometimes accompanied by their keepers and elegantly dressed visitors giving the book considerable interest as a visual record of the nineteenth-century zoological garden. The twenty-four plates encompass an extraordinary range of animal life including bison deer moose antelope llamas goats giraffes buffalo elephants hippopotamuses rhinoceroses camels zebras donkeys lions tigers leopards jackals wolves hyenas orangutans monkeys dogs birds of prey crocodiles snakes gazelles and numerous other mammals and birds. Among the most striking compositions is the giraffe plate in which three giraffes occupy their enclosure while fashionably dressed visitors observe them with smaller animal studies arranged around the principal scene. Another spectacular plate gathers lions tigers and other great cats around their barred enclosure supplemented by charming subsidiary scenes of visitors and keepers. The elephant plate similarly combines its monumental central animals with smaller studies of hippopotamuses and other pachyderms. The deer and moose plate demonstrates particularly well Adam's attractive combination of zoological observation with picturesque landscape. The application of gum arabic over the hand-coloring gives portions of the animals foliage and costumes a luminous almost enameled appearance characteristic of the finest French juvenile color-plate books of the period. Albert Adam 1833-1900 was the son of the celebrated French painter lithographer and caricaturist Jean-Victor Adam 1801-1866 with whom he worked and whom he assisted with lithographic commissions. In Le Jardin des Plantes en Estampes the younger Adam combines accomplished lithographic draughtsmanship with an engaging sense of narrative: animals keepers and spectators together create miniature scenes of life at the Paris menagerie rather than merely conventional zoological portraits. The accompanying text by Jules Rostaing provides descriptions and histories of the animals represented transforming Adam's spectacular series of plates into an educational introduction to the inhabitants of one of Europe's most celebrated zoological collections. Exceptionally rare. OCLC records just one copy at the Morgan Library & Museum New York - the copy formerly in the collection of Gordon N. Ray. The work is apparently unknown to Denise's bibliography of the Jardin des Plantes. A particularly desirable example of nineteenth-century French juvenile natural history combining twenty-four exceptionally attractive hand-colored lithographs contemporary zoological observation scenes of Parisian social life and a handsome pictorial gilt publisher's binding.
