Title: Observationes Mathematicae, et Physicae in India et in China Factae à Patre Francisco Noël Societatis Jesu, ab anno 1684. usque ad annum 1708.
Author: NOËL, François
Seller: Martayan Lan, Inc. (United States)
Description: FROM PEKING TO PRAGUE THE CHINESE ASTRONOMY OF FRANÇOIS NOËL WITH A LARGE FOLDING STAR CHART OF THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE 4to (19.1 x 15.2 cm), 133 pp., (1) pp., including full-page engraved Chinese Calendar (p. 59), numerous woodcut diagrams and tables with woodcut Chinese letters, a full-page engraved plate of astronomical observations (verso of p. 133), and with (1) large folding engraved star chart for the epoch 1687 (signed Balthasar van Westerhaut), woodcut headpiece and initials. Bound in contemporary calf, gold-tooled spine, red sprinkled edges. Some rubbing and edge wear to spine and boards, minor warning to covers. Contemporary annotations, moderate browning in a few quires, occasional minor toning, small (3 mm.) hole in chart not affecting images. Rare first and sole edition of one of the few works published in Europe to record detailed, first-person observations made at Jesuit astronomical observatories in China in the 17th century, and one of the first works to convey information on Chinese observational data and astronomical traditions to a Western audience. Compiled by the Belgian-born polymath François Noël (1651-1729), the Observationes Mathematicae, et Physicae in India et in China represents a full account of this Jesuit's astronomical career. The volume is illustrated with a large folding celestial chart of the southern skies incorporating observations Noël made at the Jesuit Colleges at Rachol in Goa, Macao, and Bahia in Brazil. Other illustrations include a full-page plate engraving the 1690 transit of Mercury, Noël's observations of Jupiter, and his method for recording magnetic inclinations for use in navigating by compass at sea, as well as a full-page plate illustrating the Chinese Sexagenary calendar. Noël's discussion of Chinese astronomy (Chapter V) not only serves as an introductory primer, but also is a fastidious record of Chinese observational data collected by Noël from Chinese star catalogues and charts, and he even retains information which was at odds with European observations. Noël produces a chart of the relevant Chinese calendrical characters (the Ten Heavenly Stems and the Twelve Earthly Branches), an engraving of the Sexagenary calendar, a table of the 28 Chinese constellations, a list of Chinese zodiacal signs (with a chart comparing them to European signs). His extensive Catalogus Latino-Sinicus (pp. 65-103) compares Chinese and European stellar nomenclatures. Here Noël lauds the "extreme antiquity of Chinese astronomy, which began some 4000 years ago," but puzzles over the fact that the Chinese tradition records, "many small stars which are no longer visible"; he dutifully records these numerous stars in the Catalogus, but notes that "they are either very faint or perhaps made up" ("minimae aut fictae," "vel minimae, vel fictae," etc.). Noël apologizes for not printing the Chinese characters for star names, "because of the difficulty of having them cut in Europe" (p. 67). Chinese weights and measures are also discussed. In other chapters, Noël offers his observations of Jupiter's satellites made while in Huai'an in 1689-90 (including tables comparing his data to observations made by others in Nanjing and Paris), as well as a description of 16 observations (both telescopic and made with naked-eye instruments) of lunar and solar eclipses he made in Goa, Macau, Siam, Peking, Shanghai, Nanjing, Huai'an, Tshusima Island, Trincomalee (Sri Lanka) etc., between 1684 and 1707. He provides an extensive list of his longitude and latitude observations for numerous locations in China and India which he made between 1687-1708, as well as readings from Bahia in Brazil (including a table summarizing the longitude and latitude of more than 80 cities and towns in China). In his 13-page catalogue of some 350 southern stars (ascensions, declinations, magnitudes) for the epoch 1687, Noël cites the recent work of Riccoli, Hevelius, and Halley, taking issue with several of their measurements; the folding Mappa Stellarum Australium, engraved by Balthasar van Westerhaut, illustrates the placement of southern stars as observed by Noël. The work's final chapter includes Noël's extensive notes on the Comets of 1695, 1701, and 1702, (which he observed from Peking and Java), meteorological curiosities he saw in Asia (twilight, unusual rainbows), and planetary observations, including an unusual visual aberration that occurred when he viewed Jupiter through a 13.5-foot telescope in Nanchang in 1694 (this observation is illustrated), aberrations he encountered in viewing Venus through a 40-foot telescope in 1697, and data from Jean de Fontenay's (1643-1710) observation in Canton of the 1690 transit of Mercury (also illustrated here). Interestingly, the present example preserves contemporary annotations to Noël's catalogue of magnetic declinations and inclinations he made (Chapter VIII) using a magnetic needle during his 1706 journey from Portugal to India and his 1708 voyage from the Sunda Strait (between Java and Sumatra) westward to Brazil. The annotator has carefully underlined and enumerated Noël's 201 location readings, apparently for incorporation into a larger table or chart he hoped would be useful in resolving the ongoing problem of pinpointing longitude in sea navigation. (Halley had only recently published his groundbreaking map of magnetic variation in Atlantic waters [1701] and his world chart was still decades away from publication.) Noël joined the Society of Jesus at age 19, in 1670, and studied theology, mathematics and astronomy at the University of Douai. He departed on his first Asia journey in 1684, hoping to join the Japan mission, but the longstanding ban on Western missionaries by the Tokugawa shogunate foreclosed on this possibility. Noël instead spent two years learning Chinese at Macao before traveling to the Chinese mainland in 1687, where we traveled widely, doing missionary work primarily related to the lower classes and abandoned women and children. He was a major figure in the Chinese Rites controversy and his role in this and other Jesuit Roman Embassies was the impetus for the various journeys recorded in the Observationes Mathematicae, et Physicae. Known in Chinese as Wei Fangji, Noël published widely on Chinese Confucian classics. He returned to Europe for good in about 1709, settling in Prague to teach mathematics at the Jesuit-staffed Charles-Ferdinand University, under whose auspices he quickly published the Observationes Mathematicae, et Physicae.

Author: MORTIER, Pierre / MARTIN, David
Seller: Martayan Lan, Inc. (United States)
Description: Large folio [27.5 x 44 cm], 2 volumes, (8) ff., including half-title, engraved frontispiece signed Gouwen Schulp after O. Elliger, and title with large engraved vignette, 282 pp., (4) ff., 141 numbered plates after a number of hands (see below), with large engraved head-piece and initial in preface; II: (12) ff., 154 pp., 73 numbered plates, 28 engraved vignettes, 5 double-page engraved maps, (6) pp. tables accompanying maps, 20 pp. Bound in contemporary citron morocco, covers triple gilt ruled, spine in 7 compartments with raised bands, 2 black morocco lettering pieces gilt, remaining compartments in a pattern of contrasting zig-zag lines, 1 a double-gilt line, the other in a line more thickly tooled golden bars, interior covers gilt. Some minor nicks to binding covers and head and tail of spine. Discrete unidentified cipher on half-titles; soiling to a single leaf of preface; some tiny water stain on a handful of leaves, and some minor finger-soiling or toning to a few others. Generally a large and clean copy, with the many plates in excellent, dark impression, in a luxurious contemporary binding. First edition, first issue and a magnificent copy of this sumptuously illustrated print Bible, commonly known as Mortier's Large Bible, in which the obsessive tendency of Golden Age Dutch culture to illustrate overwhelms any Calvinist scruple over the sinfulness or inadequacy of pictures in relation to Holy Writ, and in which the preciousness of the contents are embellished yet further by a grand and expensive morocco binding. In such a copy, rare. This copy contains the famous apocalypse plate in the second volume before a printing mishap disfigured it with some errant nails. Such copies, known as avant les clous are rare, and are considered a sign of first issue. The work contains an engraved plate showing (generally) two subjects for virtually every page of text (c. 428 illustrations), with a Dutch and French caption above each scene. (French and Dutch language editions of the text were issued the same year.) The illustrators included two of three most admired contemporary engravers, Jan Luyken, who drew and engraved all of his designs, and Bernard Picart; the third, de Hooghe, was at work on another Bible, and comparison of two monumental illustrated Bibles in progress at more or less the same time would be an interesting research project, given the close connection between scripture and contemporary politics (see Simon Schama, Patriotic Scripture in Embarassment of Riches, p. 95 ff.) The foreword and text for each plate was written by David Martin, a French Protestant theologian resident in Holland, with his French text translated by W. Sewel. The work was issued simultaneously in French and Dutch with the same plates, differing only in the preliminary matter and in whether the final plate is defective or not. *Brunet III.199-200; Cohen-de Ricci 489 (French); Cf. W. Poortman, Bijbel en Prent (The Hague 1983-86), pp. 98-105; Van Eeghen/ Van der Kellen 351; NBG xxxiv.33 on Martin (1629-1731).

Title: Orlando innamorato
Author: Boiardo, Matteo Maria; Francesco Berni.
Seller: Rodger Friedman Rare Book Studio (United States)
Condition: Fine
Description: Venice: Gli eredi di Lucantonio Giunta, 1541. First edition thus. Fine. Quarto (25 cm); 262 leaves. Title page in red and black. Text in italic type in two columns. In 19th-century polished white vellum, border in gilt with small "chain-link" tool. Spine elaborately gold-tooled in scallop pattern, with blue-dyed title compartment and year. Sky-blue pastepaper endleaves. Lengthy bibliographical note in manuscript on front blank. THIS COPY UNIQUELY SOPHISTICATED, possibly at the time of rebinding, with paper extensions attached to all margins, double-ruled in red ink, effectively adding 5 centimeters to the length of the page, and 2 centimeters to the fore-edge, and an attractive border to the text.. Odd. All edges gilt. References: Edit 16 5539; Fontanini, I, 258 f (noting as "scandalose" and "detestibili" the poem's libidinous passages); Camerini, 452 ("di singolare rarità"); Gamba, 161 ("Rarissimo"); Renouard, Notice sur la famille des Juntes, xxx ("Elle est très rare"); Tiraboschi, VI, 1165 ("riputato tuttora un de' migliori tra poemi epici romanzeschi"); Harris, Bibliografia dell' "Orlando innamorato", 1, 31. (Harris gives priority to a 1542 counterfeit edition published in Milan, a notion first proposed by the early 20th-century bibliographer Andrea Sorrentino, and is contradicted in the strongest possible terms by Camerini.) The bookseller's jargon term "first edition thus" doesn't usually mean much, but this case is different. Matteo Maria Boiardo's chivalric romance first saw print in stages between 1483 and 1506 (some editions are lost or exist in unique copies). The poem was complex, imaginative, energetic, and inspirational (to Ariosto, among others), but was also considered flat-footed, steeped in dialect, uncareful with syntax, rhythmically flawed, and unfinished. Beginning around 1530, the Florentine satirist Francesco Berni, began his adoring "rifacimento," polishing nearly every line of the massive text, eliminating the perceived rough edges, bringing it into line with the sophisticated tastes of Pietro Bembo's generation. Berni effectively became the poem's co-author. Whether Berni truly "improved" Boiardo's text is not our concern (the answer was yes until very recently). The book, here presented in its very rare first edition, remains a milestone in the development of the Italian language during the sixteenth century. Among Berni's embellishments is an eyewitness description in verse of the 1527 sack of Rome.
