Die nördliche Karte enthält die Titelkartusche oben rechts, die südliche Karte ohne Titel. Wohl die früheste von etlichen Moskau-Karten Delisles. - Guillaume Delisle (1675-1726) war ein französischer Kartograph aus Paris. Delisle war der erste, der eine wissenschaftlich vergleichende Geographie anbahnte, indem er bei seinen Werken auch Reiseberichte und die Werke von Naturforschern benutzte. Er gab zahlreiche Landkarten heraus, die sich durch Eleganz und Schärfe von den früheren Karten unterschieden. - Der breite weiße Rand wurde zeitgenössisch eigens aufmontiert, vermutlich wegen der enormen Blattgröße. Sauber und gut erhalten. / Early print of this Delisle maps. The large white edges were mounted on both maps separate in contemporarily time (probably because of the large sheet size). Very good condition. Landkarten de

1986Valentina Grunowska gazed with horror at her brutal husband, the count. Married to him in her teens, the great beautiful countess had learned to fear his iron will, his cold-blooded sensuality, his arrogance. But now he was demanding that she, his young wife, should prostitute herself to the leaders of the invading French army in order to gain valuable information about Napoleon's plans for the attack on Russia.Valentina, as unwilling Polish agent, went to the French that night fearing what she must do. Colonel de Chavel is cold, contemptuous, and head of the French intelligence service. But she did not know the handsome, embittered French officer who would enter her life, and plunge her into a whirlpool of reckless passion and danger... Theirs seems like the least likely of love stories. But, as Napoleon's army sweeps on towards Moscow, great events will throw them together - and pull them apart again. As the French face defeat and a starving retreat through the snow, Valentina must search desperately amongst the survivors for the man she loves. Book

1630n 12° (11,4×6 cm); 327, (9) pp. Legatura coeva in piena pergamena floscia. Titolo manoscritto al dorso, in parte sbiadito. Alcuni difetti alla legatura nel margine basso del dorso e ai piatti (leggeri), mentre, all’interno a parte un leggerissimo alone al margine alto del volume, praticamente invisibile ed ininfluente, il volume si presenta in buone-ottime condizioni di conservazione. Prima edizione di questa elzeviriana dedicata agli sconfinati territori della Russia. L’opera è una dettagliata descrizione ella situazione storica, geografica, folklorica, politica, militare, economica, religiosa, della Russia, di Mosca e della Tartaria nei primi decenni del diciassettesimo secolo. Lo studio è normalmente attribuita al noto studioso olandese, Marc Zuerius Von Boxhorn (28 agosto 1612 – 3 ottobre 1653) che fu a lungo professore all’Univeristà di Leida. Studioso di linguistica, trovò un collegamento fra le lingue indoeuropee arrivando a definire una comune radice linguistica in una lingua che von Boxhorn chiamò “scita”. La sua ipotesi vedeva come facenti parte dello stesso ceppo linguisitco l’olandese, il greco, il latino, il persiano e il tedesco, aggiungendo in seguito le lingue slave, celtiche e baltiche. In modo alquanto curioso escluse altre lingue da queste comuni origini, come ad esempio, l’ebraico. Rif. Bibl.: IT\ICCU\TO0E\008429; Rahir, 312; Berghman, 1890; Goldsmith, III, 37; Rostenberg, 128; Cat. Russica, II, 233. Manca al Brunet e al Graesse. Coquebert de Taizy, nella voce da lui scritta sul Boxhorn per la “Biographie Universelle” del Michaud (V, 416-417), non conosce questo scritto, forse in ragione della sua anonimia.
