XXIV, 653, (2) pp., 1 blank. -- Leather binding mit gold embossing and gold trim, spine with title panel. Interior covers with decorative blue endpaper. -- Front and back cover with the coat of arms of Marie Joséphine of Savoy (1753-1810). -- Very rare armorial binding of a well-known figure of French royalty. || Marie-Joséphine… de Savoie was princess of France, and through her marriage to the future king Louis XVIII (Louis Stanislas Xavier, 1755-1824) also a countess of Provence. One notable fact about Marie Joséphine of Savoy is that, despite her position as the wife of Louis XVIII, she never became Queen of France - even though she was regarded as such by Bourbon royalist Legitimists. This is because she passed away in 1810, 4 years before her husband ascended the throne as Louis XVIII in 1814, following the fall of Napoleon and the Bourbon Restoration. Her life was marked by personal and political difficulties. She lived through the tumultuous period of the French Revolution, went into exile with her husband, and spent much of her later life in relative obscurity, moving between different European courts. Marie Joséphine was also known for her frail health and devout Catholic faith, and she reportedly led a somewhat melancholic and reclusive life during her exile. Her marriage to Louis XVIII was famously unhappy, and she was overshadowed by the events of the revolution and the Napoleonic era. Despite this, her connection to both the House of Savoy and the Bourbon dynasty placed her at the center of some of the most important political changes of her time. -- Binding slightly rubbed, otherwise in very good condition. // Wir, das Antiquariat Steffen Völkel, kaufen und verkaufen alte Bücher, Handschriften, Zeichnungen, Autographen, Grafiken und Fotografien.

First edition. Woodcut armorial device on the title page, with a few woodcut initials throughout. Illustrated with several tables and nearly one hundred woodcut images, some full-page. Among them is a large world map (f. 78r) showing America, along with three small. First edition. In later full leather with a gilt spine, title v…ignette, gilt turn-ins, and red-tinted edges. Marbled endpapers. ff. [10 (misbound)], 284 [i.e. 283 (several mispaginated, some misbound)] [1 (woodcut ill.)]. [Complete]. A scarce Portuguese treatise on astronomy, navigation, and geography, with early references to America and Asia. Manoel de Figueiredo's Chronographia: Reportorio dos Tempos is a comprehensive work compiling astronomical, calendrical, navigational, and geographical knowledge, with references to America and Asia. It follows the tradition of earlier Iberian Reportorio dos Tempos, a type of encyclopedic work or almanac that combined astronomical, calendrical, and astrological knowledge. The book provides detailed descriptions of celestial motions, the structure of the universe, and divisions of time, including religious calendars with saints' feast days. Additionally, it discusses meteorological phenomena, eclipses and their astrological implications, as well as practical information on navigation, tides, and agricultural practices. Intended for a broad readership, it contributed to the widespread popularity of such works (Valleriani 2020). Figueiredo's Reportorio is distinguished by its integration of practical mathematical applications, including instructions on the construction and use of navigational instruments such as the balestilha (cross-staff) and geometric quadrants. His work was essential for pilots, scholars, and mariners, synthesizing practical navigation with theoretical knowledge. The book is structured into six main sections, covering Chronographia (chronology), Astronomia (astronomy), Geographia (geography), Astrologia (astrology), Computo Calendario (calendar calculations), and a sixth book (Do radio astronomico), dedicated to the fabrication and use of mathematical instruments such as the balestilha (cross-staff), a geometric quadrant, and various types of clocks. The text provides detailed solar and lunar cycle tables, designed for practical applications in calendar-making and eclipse prediction up to the year 1630. It explains the determination of longitude and latitude, essential for maritime navigation. Parts 2-6 are richly illustrated with corresponding woodcuts. The title page of the second part features a large woodcut armillary sphere, and the section is further illustrated with zodiac signs, figural representations of the planets, and other scientific diagrams. This chapter includes a large, nearly full-page world map depicting the classical division of the Earth into five climatic zones (f. 78r). America appears as a distinct landmass in the western hemisphere but is crudely shaped, while Asia is merged with Africa, showing prominent bodies of water on the continents. The Geographia section includes three smaller world maps: the first illustrating wind directions (f. 120v), the second explaining the Earth's spherical shape and its division into hemispheres (f. 128v), and the third likely indicating meridians and reference points (such as the Canary Islands and Cape Verde) for navigation (f. 140r). The Astrologia section contains a full-page illustration of the Zodiac Man, while the Computo Calendario section is illustrated with schematic moon faces representing different eclipse phases. The final section includes illustrations explaining the use of the cross-staff, the quadrant, and sundials. A significant portion of the Reportorio is devoted to geographical descriptions, offering insights into European knowledge of the world in the early 17th century. It describes the four known continents and references major colonial centers in the Americas, Africa, and Asia (ff. 208-209). Some charts indicate the start dates of the hottes. Woodcut armorial device on the title page, with a few woodcut initials throughout. Illustrated with several tables and nearly one hundred woodcut images, some full-page. Among them is a large world map (f. 78r) showing America, along with three small (illustrator).

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Procopius of Caesarea. De Bello Persico, Per Raphaelem Volaterranum Conversus. Romae per Magistrum Eucharium Silber alias Franck. Castigatum per Andream Nucium MDIX. Nonis Martiis.(Rome, Eucharius Silber, March 1509] Folio. [90]f. Roman letter. At end of text 6 line privilege in favour of Giacomo Mazzoc…chi printed in capitals. Woodcut initial with portrait of a saint at beginning of first book, lombard initial decorating beginnings of books II-IV. Early 19th century red quarter morocco, gilt; marbled boards. The first printing of Procopios' account of the early 6th century Byzantine military campaigns against the Persian kings Kavadh & Chosroes Anushirvan, and against the Vandal kingdom in North Africa. The Latin translation from the Greek is by Raffaele Maffei Bishop of Volaterra (1451-1522), a noted humanist ; (the Greek original text was first published by Höschel at Augsburg as late as 1607; an English version by Holcroft followed in 1653). The colophon is unusual in referring to the editor, Andrea Nucio, by name. The lengthy privilege by Pope Julius II is in favour of Giacomo Mazzocchi, learned Roman bookseller, printer, and noted antiquarian, first mentioned here. Procopios, a native of Caesarea in Palestine, trained as a lawyer and rhetorician, was attached to the Byzantine general Belisarius in AD 527 as his aide and legal adviser in the Persian war. He was to accompany Belisarius in all his brilliant campaigns to restore East Roman power. His Histories, written c550 AD, constitute the authoritative text for the period. Procopios emphasizes the crucial rôle of archers in Belisarius victories. A good copy with wide margins from the library of Dmitry Petrovich Count Boutourlin (1763-1829), Russian senator, outstanding bibliophile, and director of the Imperial Library, with his engraved armorial bookplate inside front cover; Boutourlin s first library was lost in the burning of Moscow in 1812; his immense second collection, formed during his retirement in Tuscany, was described in a privately printed catalogue limited to 200 copies by Audin (Florence 1831); the books were ultimately dispersed by auction through Silvestre (Paris, 1839-41); many were acquired by the Bodleian Library. A small, neat repair in blank tailend corner of last leaf. Isaac 12013; Jähns 143-6; Adams records no copies in Cambridge libraries.
