6 bind. Gyldendal, København 1793-1807. 4to. Med kobberstukket portræt af Henrik Stampe (J.G. Preisler efter Jens Juel). Samtidige halvlæderbind med enkel rygforgyldning. Stempel (AStB = Aalborg Stifts Bibliothek) på titelbladet i hvert bind. Gl. inventarnummer på indersiden af forpermen. * Godt sæt af dette hovedværk i dansk juridisk litteratur. Henrik Stampe (1713-89) står som en af det 18. århundredes betydeligste danske embedsmænd. I 1753 blev han udnævnt til såvel juridisk professor ved Københavns Universitet og til generalprokurør. I sidstnævnte egenskab kom han ind i enevoldsmagtens inderkreds og fik ansvaret for udarbejdelse af nye love og for afgivelsen af erklæringer til regeringen i komplicerede juridiske spørgsmål - det er dette arbejde, der er dokumenteret i værket. Han deltog livet ud i centraladministrationens væsentligste arbejde og var både med i Struensees reformer, i tribunalet mod Struensee og Brandt og til sidst medvider i sammensværgelsen mod Høegh-Guldberg - man må sno sig her i verden. Henrik Stampe sluttede sin karriere som statsminister.

2 volumes. Published by authority of the right honourable the Earl Bathurst. London, John Murray, Albermarle-Street 1824 (year in first volume erronously given as MCMCCCCXXIV). Third edition. xix+370; iv+399 pages. Large folded map of 'The Discoveries & Route of the Northern Land Expedition' opposite title page of first volume (approx. 85x53cm). One hand-coloured folded map opposite of titlepage in second volume: 'The Connected Discoveries of Captains Parry & Franklin' (according to instructions to binder originally to be placed in front of first volume, but seen misplaced in the third edition). Two foldable maps in the rear of second volume. One plan in second volume (page 46). Bound in two recent volumes of red half calf with six compartments and title, author, year and small vignettes in gilt to spines. Small hole to fold of the large map - only affecting the inland portion of the map, so not the mapped coastline. One map in second volume with two very small holes; one at the frame of the print affecting the longitudal scale and one to the inland, not affecting charted areas. Light foxing, creasing and folds to maps. A couple of pages with discolouration, most likely from old water stain. Otherwise only the occasional small, closed tear and three small nicks (page 177/vol. I & 217-220/vol. II). * In our time undoubtedly most widely known for disappearing with two ships and crew during what became 'Franklins Lost Expedition' (starting out in 1845 as The Northwest Passage Expedition) in search of The Northwest Passage between the Bering Strait and the Atlantic, Sir John Franklin (1786-1847) had a long career at sea behind him starting as a young boy. The merchant fleet took him to sea at the age of 12, but it became the Navy he dedicated his life to. During the early years he saw one battle followed by another: Copenhagen (1801), The South China Sea (1804), Trafalgar (1805) and so on. In 1818 Franklin partook in an expedition to Svalbard (Spitzbergen) as commander of one of the ships and the following years he led the Coppermine expedition, one of several mapping expeditions sent out by The Royal Navy in an attempt at discovering The Northwest Passage and thereby the shortcut route to the lucrative markets of Asia. The expedition started out from the Coppermine River and worked it's way east along the polar sea. The men were challenged not only by the hardships a northern climate has to offer, but also by shortage of food, bad planning, murder, possible cannibalism and a less welcoming attitude from the local helpers and ended up not fulfilling it's objective. Only half the crew made it back alive after famously eating lichen - and perhaps even their own shoes if we shall believe Franklin's nickname 'The man who ate his boots' - to survive. Franklin went on to command the Mackenzie River expedition in 1825, being governor of van Diemen's Land (present day Tasmania) for six years and lastly being appointed leader of the Northwest Passage Expedition.

Henrich Waldkirch, København 1622.. Folio. (2)+XXV+(1)+706 sider. Titelblad trykt med rødt og sort.

Helt rent eksemplar. * Bibl. Dan. III,3. Thesaurus II, 544. Smukt og attraktivt eksemplar af Lyschanders Danmarkshistorie. Som historiograf for Christian IV fik Lyschander i opdrag at skrive en slags dansk mod-historie til Johannes Magnus' værk om Sveriges og navnlig de svenske kongers usandsynligt lange historie. Det er Magnus' fortjeneste, at den nuværende svenske konge har nummer 16 - de første otte gange Karl fortoner sig i Magnus' fantasiverden. Her ville Christian IV også være med, så ligesom Magnus førte Lyschander sin opdragsgivers anerække tilbage til Det Gamle Testamente, hvorved de danske konger, i øvrigt ligesom de svenske, nedstammede fra en af Noas sønner.

Originalt manuskript. 1 ark (20,5 x 15,5 cm). Håndskrevet prosadigt i 2 spalter (100 linjer), signeret Dine Børn Svend og Laura og dateret Fredericia 7 Septbr (18)61. Nederste højre hjørne revet (med lidt teksttab). * Yderst originalt tænkt og formuleret hyldest fra Grundtvigs næstældste søn og dennes hustru til den aldrende far/svigerfar og dateret dagen før Grundtvigs 78 (!) års fødselsdag 8 september 1861. Digtet følger med en lyngkrans, plukket af sønnen og bundet af svigerdatteren, og teksten beskriver, hvordan fødselaren efter kirketid sætter sig til rette med kaffekop og merskumspibe og lader synet af kransen sætte tankerne på vandring gennem det lange liv med nedslag i både Udby, på Egelykke og til den jyske hede, hvor blomsterne kommer fra.

Sl. Mathis Jørgensens Bogtryckers Effterleffverske (Godiche) paa Daniel Paulli oc Christian Geertzöns Bekostning, København 1680. Lille folio. (26)+466 sider. Med kobberstukket portræt af Christian V, 2 store foldede portrætter af Frederik II (efterstikninger efter hhv. Melchior Lorck og Hendrik Goltzius), dobbelt portræt af Frederik II og dronning Sophie + 23 kobberstukne, foldede plancher (efterstukket fra Caspar Ens' Rerum Danicarum (1593), som igen har hentet motiverne fra Heinrich Rantzaus Res Gestæ FredericiII (1589)) + 4 foldede plancher med gengivelse af de danske kongers våben gennem tiderne på sigiller. 5 plancher i fotokopi (søslaget ved Øland 1564 (ved side 111) samt de 4 med sigiller bagest i bogen). Nyere halvbind med ryg og hjørneraf pergament. Brun skjold ved nederste hjørne frem til side 160. Flere plancher med reparationer. Gl. navn på titelbladet. * Bibl. Dan. III,58. Thesaurus II,621. Illustrationsplancherne er oprindelige stukket af Franz Hogenberg og Simon Novellanus og bobler af grafisk fortælleglæde. Her er skildringer af Ditmarskens erobring, Frederik II's kroning, optrin fra Den Nordiske Syvårskrig og fra kongens overdådige begravelsesoptog (det største optrin af sin art i Danmark nogen sinde). ** Peder Resens krønike om Frederik II lægger sig i forlængelse af Arild Huitfeldts Danmarkskrønike, der jo slipper ved Christian III's død i 1559. Værket bygger på et efterladt værk af Christian IV's historiograf Claus Lyschander, men inddrager også adskilligt andet materiale, som Resen fandt frem på Universitetsbiblioteket (hvor hele herligheden gik op i flammer i oktober 1728). Udstyrsmæssigt hører Resens krønike til 1600-tallets prægtigste danske bøger og giver et glimrende indtryk af, hvilke ambitioner Resen havde for sit store danske atlas (som aldrig blev til noget; Resens manuskript gik samme vej som Universitetsbiblioteket i 1728). Som historiefortæller forbinder Resen Arild Huitfeldt med Niels Slange, hvis store biografi om Christian IV begynder, hvor Resens værk om faderen slutter.

In 1665, he became professor at the newly founded University of Kiel, and professor in history in 1673. ** Værket har tilhørt den lærde teolog Søren Lintrup (1669-1731). Lintrup var rektor i Bergen og blev som sådan lærer for Ludvig Holberg. I 1720 blev han biskop i Viborg, men opnåede i 1724 embedet som kongelig konfessionarius for Frederik IV og dronning Anna Sophie (Reventlow). Da Christian VI besteg tronen, blev Lintrup omgående afskediget.

2 bind. 1: Gyldendal, København 1936. 4. oplag. 236 sider. Orig. grønt halvlæderbind. 2: Gyldendal, København 1939. 1. oplag. 206 sider. Orig. grønt halvlæderbind. Begge bind med nogle skrammer. * Unikt sæt af Hans Kirks to kollektivromaner, der fulgte op på hans succes med Fiskerne. På fribladet i Daglejerne ses en lang håndskrevet fødselsdagshilsen fra Nordjyske Kammerater i Vestre Fængsel, dateret 12. september 1942 og stilet til Svend Aage Nielsen. Underskriverne omfatter Villy Fuglsang og Hans Kirk og otte andre. På fribladet i De ny Tider findes et langt egenhændigt digt (8 lange linjer) signeret af Hans Kirk og dateret Vestre Fængsel oktober 1942. Stilet til Svend Aage Nielsen. ** Hans Kirk blev som mange andre kommunister pågrebet af det danske politi 22. juni 1941, da Tyskland angreb Sovjetunionen. Kirk blev anbragt i Horserødlejren, hvor han i den grad lagde sig ud med kommandanten, så han blev overført til Vestre Fængsel. Og her mødte han møbelhandler Svend Aage Nielsen (død 1993) fra Aalborg, der som modstandsmand var havnet samme sted. Hans Kirks digt, der ikke vides at være trykt, er iltert og mobiliserende og kunne være forfattet af den langt senere DKP-skjald Carl Scharnberg.

3 volumes. Bewick & Hodgson, Newcastle 1805-1807. XXXVIII+346; XXII+400; X+526 pages. Uniformly bound in contemporary full calf bindings, spines richly gilt and with gilt borders to the boards and inner boards as well as blind tooled borders to the boards.

The interior is crisp and clean and printed on good, thick paper. * British birds are second edition, Quadropeds is fifth edition. The beautiful books are some of the most famous woodcut works of the world. ** Bookplate inserted of John Bell, Thirsk. His son - also named John Bell - was a member of parliament, who lost his mind and was convinced that he was a bird - maybe he found inspiration in these volumes? Even his lunacy wasn't enough to remove him from parliament, where he was member till his death in 1851.

Joachim Moltken, Sorø 1644. Folio. Kobberstukket titelblad med portræt af Christian IV omgivet af Valdemar den Store og biskop Absalon i helfigurer samt med vignet af Saxo skrivende i sin klostercelle, sandsynligvis et portræt af Stephanius. (6)+384+(22)+2 blanke blade. Indbundet med: Stephanis Johannis Stephanii Notæ uberiores in Historiam Danicam Saxonis Grammatici. Una cum prolegomenis ad easdem notas. Henrik Kruse, Sorø 1645. 60+252+(22) sider. Med træskårne illustrationer af runesten. Nyere halvpergamentbind. En del sider med reparation af margenen uden tekxttab. De første og sidste sider lidt plettede. * Bibl. Dan. III,9. Thesaurus II 668. Brunet V,175. Graesse VI,287. Stephan Johannis Stephanius (1599-1650) står som sin tidsalders største danske historiker og udfoldede det meste af sit virke med det ridderlige akademi i Sorø. Titelbladets Saxo-portræt er sandsynligvis et portræt af ham - det eneste! Hans stateligt udstyrede Saxo-udgave er sammen med hans udførlige tekstkritiske noter aldeles banebrydende for Saxo-forskningen. De træskårne klicheer til kommentardelens gengivelser af runesten stilledes til rådighed af Ole Worm og kendes fra dennes Monumenta Danica. Bærer kommentaren end præg af at være blevet til i den nordiske oldforsknings barndom, så er Stephanii Saxo dog en bedrift ikke blot nationalhistorisk set, men også efter europæisk målestok (H.D. Schepelern i DBL).
