Description
1860. SADAHIDE,Gyokuransai and KANAGAKI, Robun. Yokohama Miyage. Two volumes 18x12cm, original decorated wrappers, (worn but solid) with original printed label on the first volume and an old manuscript replacement on the second; Each with 25 folded leaves all with colour woodcuts.. 8vo. wrappers. [Tokyo] : Gifuya Seishichi,1860. This is an early survey of Yokohama, published shortly after it was opened as a foreign port in 1859. Gifuya Seishichi initially issued it in five parts in 1860. This version is a compilation of the five parts without title pages and colophon. This would appear to be as issued, divided exactly in half in the middle of part three. NIJL (National Institute of Japanese Literature) illustrates the Yokohama City Library copy of the first volume identical to ours. Waseda has a copy in the same wrappers with parts four and five together. They also have parts one to three in the original form. This an extremely appealing work, one of whose features is that many of the plates can be joined together to form panoramas. The wrappers are a little grubby, nevertheless this is a rare, important and visually attractive book on Yokohama. OCLC lists a copy at Stanford

Religio medici: to which is added hydriotaphia, or urn-burial, a discourse on sepulchral urns; and also Christian morals
Author
BROWNE, Sir Thomas
Seller
Rootenberg Rare Books & Manuscripts (United States)
Description
London: Henry Washbourne, 1845. Later edition. Half-morocco and marbled boards, spine in compartments with title and decorations in gilt. From the libraries of Ralph Starkweather, Thomas Westwood and Larry C. Parks. M.D. with their respective bookplates. Browne’s best known work is Religio medici, or The doctor’s religion, which is his own spiritual testament and an early example of a psychological self-portrait. The work represents Browne’s attempt to arrive at a vital concept of faith, one with tolerance, humor and dignity. First published in 1642, shortly after the author had qualified himself to practice medicine, Religio medici became a best-seller throughout the European continent and because of its unorthodox views. While largely an exposition of Christian faith the work meanders into digressions upon alchemy, hermetic philosophy, astrology, and physiognomy. Also included in this edition is Hydriotaphia, Urn Burial, or a Discourse of the Sepulchral Urns lately found in Norfolk and Christian morals. The first work revolves around the discovery of a Roman urn burial in Norfolk which Browne uses to discuss ancient and current burial and funerary customs and extends to a greater inquiry of man's struggles with mortality. The second, Christian morals, contains Browne’s advice for his children. It was first published posthumously in 1716 and consists of meditations upon Christian values and conduct. Browne (1605-82) received his M.D. at Oxford in 1637. He was a prolific author who wrote on a wide variety of subjects including medicine, religion, science and the esoteric. The first two works were edited by J.A. St. John; Christian morals was edited by John Jeffery and includes bibliographical references.
