1686In 4° (mm 250x185). Pagg. (16), 424, (8), frontespizio con vignetta calcografica con strumenti di scienza simbolici. 7 vignette in rame a capotesta di ogni capitolo (la prima con l'ambasciata a corte di Luigi XIV), capolettera parlanti in rame e molti con ricchi fregi silografici, finalini in legno. 19 tavole (su 20, manca la tavola del rinoceronte) incise in rame da C. Vermeulen, 10 a doppia pagg. f.t. Solida piena pelle coeva con titolo impresso al dorso a cinque nervi e filetti, doppia cornice ai piatti e cantonali con losanghe in oro. Prima edizione di questo famoso viaggio in Thailandia con note sulla provincia del Capo del Sudafrica, raffiguranti animali esotici come la zebra, il rinoceronte, il camaleonte e diversi elefanti, e ancora la radice medica del Ginseng e una veduta di Bangkok. Guy Tachard fu missionario gesuita e scopritore francese, viaggio molto in Nord America esuccessivamente in Siam. L'antico nome della Thailandia ovvero il Siam rimase a lungo una regione scarsamente conosciuta agli europei. Si ebbero notizie incerte da viaggiatori durante il Medioevo e la prima età moderna, che lo avevano visitato superficialmente. Maggiori quantità di notizie ed informazioni funzionali all'espansionismo commerciale portoghese e in seguito degli olandesi e degli inglesi, si ebbero nel XVI secolo, ma la conoscenza del Siam migliorò notevolmente soprattutto grazie alle relazioni dei Gesuiti francesi, tra cui quella assai dettagliata, compilata dal padre Guy Tachard. Buon esemplare genuino stampato su carta vergellata parzialmente in barbe con note a stampa al margine. Saltuari aloni marginali da pagg. 40 a pagg. 80 e riprende verso la fine del tomo da pagg. 385 al marg. est dell'angolo inferiore. De Backer-Sommervogel VII-1802
