Description
Basel: [Johann Amerbach, 1485. [Bound with:] THOMAS À KEMPIS. Opera: Sermones, epistolae et alia opuscula. Nuremberg: Caspar Hochfeder [for Peter Dannhauser], 29 November 1494. Two volumes in one, chancery folio (284 x 195 mm). Cassianus: collation: π10 A-B8 C-F6.8 G8; a-b8 c-d6 e-h6.8 i8 k-n6.8 o-t8 v6. 208 leaves, unrubricated. 47 lines and headline, double column (except title verso). Types: 1:185G (title, incipit, headlines). 3:92G (text), 5:106(92)G (headings and colophon). Quarter-page woodcut of the conversion of Paul (b5r). Initial spaces with printed guide letters, rubricated: initials, paraphs, capital strokes in red. Thomas a Kempis: collation: π4 a-b8 c-d6 e-g8 h-l6.8 m-o6 p8 q6 r-z A-B8.6.6 C8. 184 leaves, a1-C8 foliated i-clxxviii (recte 180). 53 lines and headline, double column except prefatory letters (π2-3). Types: 2:168G (title and headings), 1:83G (text). Initial spaces with guide letters. Rubricated, in a style similar to that of the first work, but in a slightly less neat hand. A few small stains. Binding: 17th-century alum-tawed pigskin over wooden boards, covers panelled with ornamental roll-tools, at center of both covers the oval stamp of Saint Peter’s Abbey, Salzburg, the date 1665 stamped below it on upper cover, spine overlaid with white reversed pigskin and with two later calf gilt lettering-pieces and one manuscript shelfmark label, pair of brass fore-edge clasps with pin catches, edges red-stained, two index tabs. Provenance: Thomas Welti of Zurzach, inscription dated [14]86 on first title, “Vo[n] mir thomas welti vo[n] zurzach 86”; neat contemporary marginal note on fol. i5v of the Cassianus, a few marginal nota bene notes in the Thomas a Kempis; Salzburg, Benedictines of the Abbey of St. Peter’s, 18th-century inscriptions (in different hands) on titles, letterpress shelf-mark label of 1767 or later on front pastedown: “Ex bibliotheca antiquo-nova monasterii ad sanctum Petrum Salisburgi O. S. Benedicti ab anno 1767, in alium ordinem redacta,” with boxes for the Armarium, Classis, and Numerus, accomplished in manuscript; Helmut N. Friedlaender, book-label.  Two fundamental religious works from very different periods of Christianity, bound together by the Benedictine monks of Salzburg: the fifth-century hermit Cassian’s treatise on the basic rules of and psychological obstacles to the monastic life; and the first collected edition of the works of Thomas à Kempis to include (and acknowledge as his) the work that personalized religious devotion on the eve of the modern era, sowing the seeds for both the Protestant Reformation and the Counter-Reformation, the Imitatio Christi. I: First Edition of Cassianus’ De institutis coenobiorum, and second edition of his Collationes patrum. In Books 1-4 of the Institutes, Cassian set out the basic outline of monastic life, covering clothing, prayer, and rules; and in Books 5-12 he tackled the eight vices that impede monks’ achievement of spiritual perfection. These guidelines served as the basis for many monastic orders, including that of St. Benedict. The Collationes, or “Conferences” (previously published by the Brussels Brothers of the Common Life in 1476), relate Cassian’s conversations on the principles of spiritual and ascetic life with the major figures of Eastern monasticism. The Collationes were regularly read aloud in Benedictine monasteries at the time of a light meal, and is the source for the French word collation, denoting a snack. The woodcut showing Paul’s conversion on the road to Damascus appears to be by the same artist who engraved some of the woodcuts of the Spiegel menschlicher Behältnis, printed in Basel by Richel in 1476.

II: Second collected edition of the works of Thomas à Kempis, who is here explicitly recognized as the author of the Imitatio Christi. The previous edition ([Utrecht : Nicolaus Ketelaer and Gerardus de Leempt, ca. 1473]) did not include the Imitatio, presumably because of the controversy over its authorship. The edition is prefaced by letters between Georg Pickhamer or Pickheimer, prior of the Carthusians at Nuremberg (and cousin of the famous humanist), and Peter Dannhauser. The Imitatio occupies fols. 1-28, and is followed by De meditatione cordis, by Jean Gerson, chancellor of the University of Paris, who had defended the Brothers of the Common Life at the Council in Constance; this work became so closely connected to the Imitatio that Dannhauser saw fit to include it here. The edition also includes the Liber vitae of Gerhard Groote, founder of the Devotio moderna, and works by one Dominus Florentius, as well as other anonymous tracts. The printer Caspar Hochfeder, a native of Heiligbrunn, was in Nuremberg by 1490  at the latest; his first dated book (27 March 1491) was the Opera of St. Anselm, also edited by Peter Dannhauser, a young lawyer and astrologer who had studied in Ingolstadt and Tübingen, and who went on to edit several more texts printed by Hochfeder. The latter moved to Metz in 1498.

Description
Lancaster and New York: The Physical Review; American Physcial Society; American Institute of Physics, 1948. First edition. original wrappers. Very Good. FIRST PRINTINGS OF THE FOUNDATIONAL PAPERS ON THE BIG BANG AND THE ORIGIN OF THE UNIVERSE. Including a fine copy of the famous "Alpha-Beta-Gamma" paper. The Origin of Chemical Elements: "With the experimental and theoretical information now available it is possible to give a tentative description of the structure and evolution of the universe.." Physicist George Gamow "was interested in the Big Bang in relation to nucleosynthesis- the formation of atomic nuclei. Gamow wanted to see whether nuclear physics and the Big Bang could explain the observed atomic abundances," specifically, "whether the early moments of the Big Bang could be responsible for our universe being dominated by hydrogen and helium." With his graduate student Ralph Alpher, Gamow began constructing an ingenius mathematical model that attempted to explain the nuclear processes that would have occurred at the conditions of the extreme heat of the very early universe. They "spent three years working through their calculations, questioning their assumptions, updating their cross-sections and refining their estimates... This was an extraordinary adventure. They were applying concrete physics to a previously vague Big Bang theory, attempting to mathematically model the conditions and events of the early universe. They were estimating initial conditions and applying the laws of nuclear physics to see how the universe evolved with time and how the processes of nucleosynthesis progressed." The result was a stunning success. With their model, Alpher and Gamow could predict the formation of hydrogen and helium in the observed proportions ( 99.99% of all atoms ) in the universe. "This result was the first major triumph for the Big Bang model since Hubble had observed and measured the redshifts of galaxies. "When Gamow and Alpher's paper, "The Origin of Chemical Elements" was being sent for publication in the April 1, 1948 issue (April Fool's Day) of the Physical Review, Gamow couldn't resist playing a little joke on the scientific community. Even though his good friend Hans Bethe contributed nothing to the paper, Gamow added his name to the list of authors so the readers could enjoy the sight of a paper authored by Alpher, Bethe, Gamow and appreciate the pun on the Greek letters alpha, beta, and gamma. One of the unintended consequences of this joke was that is stripped the young Alpher of much of the credit due to him, for the public naturally assumed that the famous Bethe and Gamow had now done all the work. "The Alpha-Beta-Gamma paper, as it became known, was a milestone in the Big Bang versus eternal universe debate. It showed that it was possible to do real calculations relating to the nuclear processes that might have occurred after a hypothetical Big Bang, and thus test this theory of creation. Big Bang supporters could now point to two pieces of evidence, the expansion of the universe and the abundance of hydrogen and helium, and show that they were entirely consistent with the Big Bang model of the universe." Simon Singh, Big Bang: The Origin of the Universe, pp. 306-336. IN: The Physical Review, Vol. 73, No. 7, pp. 803-4; April 1 1948. Lancaster, PA and New York, NY: American Institute of Physics, 1948. Quarto, original wrappers. A FINE COPY. Expanding Universe and the Origin of Elements: "Birth of the Big Bang Model" -Particle Physics: One Hundred Years of Discovery FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS of George Gamow's paper marking the beginning of the Big Bang Model. "The German physicist Carl Friedrich von Weizsacker had postulated in 1938 that most elements were formed in explosions similar to that taking place in Lemaitre's primeval atom, but he did not state clearly whether the birthplace was cosmological or stellar. The turning point came in 1946, when Gamow discussed quantitatively the role of nuclear processes in relativistic cosmologies. His brief 1946 paper on the expanding universe and the origin of elements marks the beginning of modern big bang theory" (Hetherington, Cosmology). Gamow, working with his graduate student Ralph Alpher, would spend the next two years developing his theory, culminating in the famous "Alpha-Beta-Gamma" paper (The Origin of Chemical Elements) of 1948. Particle Physics: One Hundred Years of Discoveries: "Gamow indication on the possibility to explain the observed chemical elements abundance-curve by assumption of unequilibrium process of elements formation during a limited interval of time. Birth of the Big Bang model." IN: The Physical Review, Vol. 70, Second Series, Numbers 7 and 8, October 1 and 15, 1946, pp. 572-3. Lancaster, PA and New York, NY: American Institute of Physics, 1946. Quarto, original wrappers neatly rebacked. Fine condition. WITH: -Ralph Alpher's "Neutron-capture theory of the formation and relative abundance of the elements": Alpher's doctoral dissertation, which presents the most detailed early exposition of the theory. He introduced the term "ylem" for the initial state of the universe, consisting only of neutrons. Gamow liked the term and often gave the impression that he had invented it. IN: The Physical Review, Vol 74, Second Series, Number 11, December 1, 1948, pp.1577-1589. Lancaster, PA and New York, NY: American Institute of Physics, 1948. Quarto, original wrappers; a fine copy. -The papers "Thermonuclear reactions in the expanding universe" (Alpher, Herman, Gamow; pp. 1198-99; November 1, 1948) and "On the relative abundance of the elements" (Alpher and Herman; pp. 1737-1742; December 15, 1948) report progress in the challenging problem of numerical computation of element build-up by neutron and proton capture. Fine copies. FIVE PAPERS IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS, HANDSOMELY BOXED TOGETHER, DOCUMENTING THE BIRTH OF THE BIG BANG MODEL.

Description
342 pages. Small octavo (7 3/4" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's blue cloth with front board and spine lettered in gilt in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Meandering labyrinth of a story about a New York advertising executive who leaves his job in the city to write poetry in a hut by the sea. Although entranced by the ocean and the miles of sand and the salt marshes, David finds himself caught in the coils of his attraction to two women: Hilda, "the mate to his flame, the answering spark," but despairing and fragile (and married), and Scarlet, seductive and available (but morally rotten). Hilda's husband is a sadistic libertine whose subtle cruelties are slowly killing his wife; a situation that so unsettles the poet's wits that he falls prey to a heavily symbolic dream obsession. Smith successfully establishes a surreal voice and includes wonderful passages describing the mad moods of the sea and notes and observations about life and the hereafter, all waiting to be discovered sparkling in the sand throughout the story. The ax of a sharp and discerning editor might have turned Smith's efforts into a compelling Gothic romance, but, alas, the story gets lost in a shifting fog of dreams and fantasies, and never emerges fully formed. Dream's End is a radical departure from Thorne Smith's humorous novels, and was, in fact, Smith's first book rejected by publishers until his Topper novels became successful. Fans of Thorne Smith are likely to be intrigued by this book for its Gothic nature and for an unexpected glimpse at a more serious side of the author. Condition: Light rubbing to binding, offsetting toning to end-leaves, small bookseller's ticket on rear pastedown. Some rubbing and soiling to jacket, spine stained a bit, ends and corners chipped, splitting up front fold; faint stain to front cover else a very good to fine copy in about very good jacket.

Description
8vo. (1) f., 32 pp. Bound in recent blue paper over boards. Excellent. Second edition, appearing the same year as the first, of this eye-witness account of missionary work in the American south. In 1793, Stephen Theodore Badin, a native of Orleans, became the first priest ordained in the United States by the Catholic church. A short while later he was appointed a missionary to Kentucky, with the center of work at Bardstown. Inexperienced and ignorant of frontier language and customs, Badin devoted all his efforts to the great challenge at hand. Although he was poor and often suffered for want of bare necessities, he became a church builder, loved and admired by Protestants and Catholics alike. In 1819 Badin returned to his native land determined to raise money for his missionary projects. This small book, by an able priest, graphically describes the work of early Catholic missionaries in central Kentucky between 1793 and 1819 (Clark, 135). The first edition of this work also appeared in 1821, omitting the parenthetical subtitle Etats-Unis d'Amerique. OCLC lists Fordham, Georgetown, Loyola (Chicago), Clarke Hist. Lib. (MI), State Hist.

Description
Berlin: Trowitsch & Son, 1924. Hardcover. g. 4to. 100pp. Black cloth with gold lettering to cover. "Vanity of Vanities, sayeth the Lecturer, Vanity of Vanities, all is Vanity." One of the 24 books of the Hebrew Bible, this work is ascribed to King Solomon. It consists of personal matter with reflections on the meaning of life and the best way of life. The work emphatically proclaims all the actions of man to be inherently "futile" and/or "meaningless," as the lives of both wise and foolish men end in death. While the teacher clearly promotes wisdom for the enjoyment of an earthly life, he is unable to ascribe eternal meaning to it. In light of this perceived senselessness, the teacher suggests that one should enjoy the simple pleasures of daily life, such as eating, drinking, and taking enjoyment in one's wife and work, which are gifts from the hand of God. Minor scuffing, rubbing to boards and spine, with 1" tear to top of spine. Corners bumped and worn. Part of free front endpaper missing. In Hebrew and English. In good+ condition. In Jewish society, Ecclesiastes is read during the conclusion of the Jewish harvest holiday of Sukkot on Shemini Atzeret (in Israel, it is read on the first Shabbat of Sukkot) in order to remind them not to get too caught up in the festivities of the holiday.
