Montreal, Acta Inc., 1950. Royal8vo. In the original full red cloth. Hindges a bit weak and light wear to extremities. With dedication (not from the author) to front free end paper. XX, 822, (2), 203 pp. First edition of Selye's landmark work on stress in which he presented his General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS), a 3-stage set of physiological processes which prepare the body for danger so that we ready to stand a better chance of surviving it compared to if we remained passively relaxed when faced with a threat. Hans Selye was the first scientist to single out these side effects and to identify them collectively as being the result of 'stress', today he is is widely acknowledged as "the father of the stress field".Selye himself acknowledged that stress impacts each individual differently (Selye, 1950). What one person considers to be a severely stressful situation, another person may experience as only mildly distressing. Physiologists define stress as how the body reacts to a stressor, real or imagined, a stimulus that causes stress. Acute stressors affect an organism in the short term; chronic stressors over the longer term. The general adaptation syndrome (GAS), developed by Hans Selye, is a profile of how organisms respond to stress; GAS is characterized by three phases: a nonspecific mobilization phase, which promotes sympathetic nervous system activity; a resistance phase, during which the organism makes.Selye considered "Stress in heath and disease is medically, sociologically, and philosophically the most meaningful subject for humanity that I can think of".

London, J. Peele, 1727. 8vo. Without wrappers. A fine and clean copy. 72 pp. Scarce first edition of Gould's influential treatise in which he declared that the interest on government securities should be kept near "the natural interest of money," as defined by Locke. Gould's essay is the very first work commenting on England's massive debt burden in the 18th century and it anticipates the major economic debate on the role of national debt and The Sinking Fund by 50 years. Gould documented that since 1716 the national debt had been greatly reduced and he argued that in time, by the application of the principle of compound interest, the sinking fund would pay off all of the national debt. To support this argument he showed that one million pounds, accumulating at four percent compound interest, would amount in 105 years to 1575 millions. "The English public was in fact so nervous [by the massive national debt] that the Pitt government in 1786 resumed, on a larger scale and more seriously, the policy of paying an annual sum into a Sinking Fund. The plan adopted is usually attributed to the suggestion of Richard Price, [1772]. Sir Nathaniel Gould had published similar views before [in the present publication]. (Schumpeter, History of Economic Analysis, 327)."Gould appears, in fact, to have been the first person to have employed those arguments on behalf of the policy of simultaneously borrowing and repaying which subsequently became an accepted element in financial theory. [...] Gould had complete confidence in the permanence of and the efficacy of the sinking fund". (Wormell, National Debt in Britain.

[Dublin, Printed by and for Geo. Grierson, in Essex-Street, and for George Ewing, in Dames-Street, 1 8vo. Nice 19th century half calf with richly gilt spine. A bit of occasional brownspotting, but overall very nice. Half-title with three old owner's entries - that of Jens Baggesen (1802), another one dated 1860, and finally that of esteemed book collector Paul V. Rubow, statitng that this is Pope's edition. Another old owner's signature (Brammer) to title-page. 424, (48 - Index), (6 - table of editions of Shakespeare's Plays), (2 - advertisements) pp. - lacking the title-page for the volume, but with all half-titles for the separate plays present. Six large allegorical woodcut head-pieces, woodcut initials, and woodcut ornamentations. Volume 7 - containing Cymbeline, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet, and Othello - of the extremely rare first Irish edition of Shakespeare's works, which appeared in 8 volumes in all, the 8th being a supplementary volume by Dr. Sewell. This 7th volume is arguably the most sought-after of the volumes, as it includes not only Hamlet, but also Romeo and Juliet as well as Othello and will thus also have been saleable and collectable on its own. This copy of vol. 7 was bought by the great Danish Golden Age author Jens Baggesen (1764-1626) on his travel to London in 1802 and bears his inscription "London, April 13th" and signature to the front free end-paper. "Jens Baggesen, in full Jens Immanuel Baggesen, leading Danish literary figure in the transitional period between Neoclassicism and Romanticism.In 1782 Baggesen went to Copenhagen to study theology. Three years later, at age 21, he had an unprecedented success in Denmark with his first collection of poems, Comiske fortællinger (1785; "Comical Tales"). Later, after his libretto to the first major Danish opera, Holger Danske (1789; "Ogier the Dane," music by Friedrich Kunzen), received adverse criticism (mainly because of its supposed lack of nationalism), Baggesen traveled through Germany, Switzerland, and France. The journey became the basis of his most important book, the imaginative prose work Labyrinten (1792-93; "The Labyrinth"), a "sentimental journey" reminiscent of the work of the 18th-century English novelist Laurence Sterne. Baggesen was variously a Germanophile, a great admirer of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, an ardent supporter of the French Revolution, a disciple of Immanuel Kant, and a Romanticist and early admirer of Denmark's foremost Romantic poet, Adam Oehlenschläger. Later in life he vigorously opposed Romanticism, carrying on a seven-year feud with Oehlenschläger.A perennial traveler, attracted to existential harmony but always torn between material and spiritual values, Baggesen found himself at home everywhere and nowhere. His restless existence was tempered only by his sense of humour and absurdity. He has been called a European spirit who "held a passport to the whole world except his own heart"." (Encycl. Britt.). It was in December 1800 that Baggesen moved from Denmark and settled down in Paris. He was not happy and he was not healthy. In late March 1802, he went to London, where he wrote the famous line ""Dover! Shakespear! Oh Ocean! Oh Mountains! I am thrilled!" ("Dover! Shakespear! O Hav! O Bjerge! Jeg er henrykt!")- and it was here, on April 13th, that he acquired the present volume of Shakespeare's works, containing the greatest of the author's plays.The eight volumes of this first Irish edition of Shakespeare's works was published by George Grierson and George Ewing and constitutes a piracy reprint of Pope's 6-volume 4to edition of 1725, including also the Index of the Characters, Sentiments, Speeches and Descriptions, which is present here in volume 7. The edition is very scarce and only few libraries world-wide have a copy in their holdings.Not in Lowndes

London, The Macmillan Company, 1899. 8vo. In the original full cloth with gilt lettering to spine. Traces after removel of label on lower part of spine. Library labels pasted on to pasted down front free end-paper. Embossed library stamp to titbel page (not affecting text). Otherwise a fine copy. XXVIII, (2), 445, (3) pp. The scarce first edition of Clark's seminal work - a cornerstone of neoclassical micro-economics -, which is considered "by any reasonable test, a landmark treatise in the development of economics". (New Palgrave). Clark "is regarded in some quarters as the one great American economist of the calibre of Smith and Mill". (Cohen, American Thought: A Critical Sketch, p. 117).Clark here presented his famous theorem: Given competition and homogeneous factors of production labor and capital, the repartition of the social product will be according to the productivity of the last physical input of units of labor and capital. This theorem is one of the pillars of neoclassical micro-economics and was popularly formulated by Clark himself: "[W]hat a social class gets is, under natural law, what it contributes to the general output of industry.""Very early in his career Clark began to work on the problem of factor shares (possibly because of his interest in Henry Georg) and concluded that the treatment of land rent as a surplus whose size is not determined by marginal productivity was gross error. The most complete statement of his views on distribution is in [The present work]. [...] Despite its flaws (which include the universal measure of value) 'the Distribution' is a remarkable book and, by any reasonable test, a landmark treatise in the development of economics.The 'Distribution represents an advance on the prior art in two important respects. It offers a discussion of the relation of statics to dynamics - the terms was introduced into economics by Clark - superior to that of previous treatments. And it offers, for the first time, a complete and lucid exposition of the neo-classical theory of distribution." (The New Palgrave)"One of the classics on the subject. "Aims "to show that the distribution of the income of society is controlled by a natural law, and that this law if it worked without friction, would give to every agent of production the amount of wealth which the agent creates." (A Select Bibliography of Modern Economic Theory, 1870-1929, P. 69). John Bates Clark (1847 - 1938), American neoclassical economist, was one of the pioneers of the marginalist revolution and opponent to the Institutionalist school of economics, and spent most of his career teaching at Columbia University.Mattioli 687Einaudi 1114Katalog der Karl Menger-Bibliothek 431

Aarhus, Prentet udi Autoris Tryckeri, 1650. 4to. I samtidigt helpergamentsbind. Bind misfarvet og med en smule slitage. Indvendige false en smule svage. Alle blade i bred røskenramme. Indskriptioner fra 1650 til 1924 på indersiden af begge permer. Første ejers (1650) navnetræk på titelbladet. Ex-libris (Sigurd & Gudrun Wandel) på sidste blanke blad. 332 ff. Originaludgaven af bogtrykker Hans Hansen Skonnings mest originale værk, det første originale danske (ti år før udgivelsen af Anders Arrebos skabelsesdigt), der er formet som en selvstændig dyreallegori over Rævebogen.Som alt andet i hans produktion fremstillet på hans eget trykkeri og sandsynligvis på papir af egen fabrikation fra hans papirmølle syd for Aarhus.Skonning virkede forudsom som forfatter og bogtrykker også som klokker ved Domkirken i Århus. Da biskop Morten Madsen i 1641 afsatte ham som klokker, tog han havn med denne satire, rettet mod forholdene i Århus. Ifølge Jens Worm er den fyldt med "Gusten galde og sort blækspruttesnavs". Skonning sendte øjensynligt breve om, hvad han så fra kirketårnet, både til Jacob Madsen, svoger til Ole Worm og til Ole Worm selv. Eksemplaret udmærker sig ved, at samtlige ejere fra 1650 til 1923 har sat en inskription på indersiden af begge permer. De nyeste dokumenterede ejere omfatter Herman Lynge og Sigurd Wandel.

"Withdrawn" stamp to front wrapper. Soiling to top right corner of front wrapper affecting first 20 leaves. Front wrapper creased. X, 88 pp. First announcement of the establishment of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) at Bretton Woods in July 1944 - the greatest, most powerful and successful international economic agreement ever made. 44 Allied nations led by The United States and Great Britain sought to rebuild the international economic system while World War II was still going on. The Bretton Woods system obligated each country to adopt a monetary policy that maintained the exchange rate by tying its currency to the U.S. dollar and the ability of the IMF to bridge temporary imbalances of paymentsThe formation of the Bretton Woods system is by many considered the main factor in the economic prosperity experienced in Western Europe and the USA during the 50ies and 60ies thus shaping the world economy for decades. Regardless of the fact that some of the basic traits of the system (the gold standard) was abandoned in 1971 - usually referred to as the Nixon Shock - it is still the most influential economic event in the post war-years, if not the entire 20th century. "The United States and Great Britain took the lead in constructing the postwar international monetary institutions, with John Maynard Keynes and Harry Dexter White drawing up rival designs for the new system. The Charter of the International Monetary Fund provided for a system based on pegged, but adjustable, exchange rates and an institution which would lend additional reserve assets to countries which were having temporary difficulties in maintaining convertibility. Resort to floating exchange rates, competitive devaluations, and trade restirctions to promote domestic employment were explicitly to be avoided, in the light of the problems of the 1930s".

GENOCCHI, ANGELO (recte GIUSEPPE PEANO).
Herman H. J. Lynge & Søn A/S
lyn38779
Torino, Fratelli Bocca, 1884. 8vo. Cont. full green cloth w. gilt title and ornamentation to spine. Minor occasional browning. A very nice and clean copy. XXXII, 333, (5, -index and errata) pp. The scarce first edition of Peano's first major publication, his first book, the work that brought him international fame, and one of the most important calculus texts since the time of Euler and Cauchy.The present book, which has a somewhat strange history, contributing to its scarcity, is considered a constitutional work of the science of infinitesimal calculus. In 1899 it was translated into German, and in 1903 into Russian.The famous Italian mathematician, logical philosopher, pioneer of symbolic logic, and a founder of mathematical logic and set theory, Giuseppe Peano (1858 -1932), studied mathematics at the University of Turin, where he was employed just after graduating (1880), and where he stayed almost all of his life, devoting his life to mathematics. After having graduated with honours, he was employed to assist first Enrico D'Ovidio, and then the renowned Angelo Genocchi, who possessed the chair of Infinitesimal calculus. At this time, Genocchi's health was declining, and the teaching of the infinitesimal calculus course was handed over to Peano already in 1882. In 1880 Peano had published his first paper, and the following year he published another three; in 1884 he published his first book, the foundational "Calculus and Principles of Integral Calculus", which constitutes one of "the most important works on the development of the general theory of functions since the work of the French mathematician Augustin-Louis Cauchy (1789-1857)". (Encycl. Britt.)As is evident from the title-page, the work was based on Genocchi's lectures on calculus; however, the book turned out to be much more than, and in fact something completely different from, that. Peano stands as the editor of the work, but in fact most of the book is written by Peano himself. Apparently, Genocchi had given his approval to the publication of an edited version of his lectures, but when he saw the final result, he regretted the fact that it had appeared under his name. Genocchi stated in a letter that "... the volume contains important additions, some modifications, and various annotations, which are placed first. So that nothing will be attributed to me which is not mine, I must declare that I have had no part in the compilation of the aforementioned book and that everything is due to that outstanding young man Dr Giuseppe Peano ...".Peano assumed full responsibility for the work and also recognised it as his own. He later saw the importance that this book has had on the development of the science of infinitesimal calculus. "In 1915 he (Peano) printed a list of his writings, adding: "My works refer especially to infinitesimal calculus, and they have not been entirely useless, seeing that, in the judgment of competent persons, they contributed to the constitution of this science as we have it today." This "judgment of competent persons" refers in part to the "Encyclopädie der mathematischen Wissenschaften", in which Alfred Pringsheim lists two of Peano's books among nineteen important calculus texts since the time of Euler and Cauchy. The first of these books was Peano's first major publication and is something of an oddity in the history of mathematics, since the title page gives the author as Angelo Genocchi, not Peano: "Angelo Genocchi, Calcolo differenziale e principia de calcolo integrale, publicato con aggiunte dal Dr. Guiseppe Peano." The origin of the book is that Bocca Brothers wished to publish a calculus text based on Genocchi's lectures. Genocchi did not wish to write such a text but gave Peano permission to do so. After its publication Genocchi, thinking Peano lacked regard for him, publicly disclaimed all credit for the book, for which Peano then assumed full responsibility." (D.S.B. X:441).Later the same year, after the publication of this his first major work, Peano became professor at the university of Turin. His first work now stands, not only as one of the founding texts of modern infinitesimal calculus, but also as a prime example of Peano's excellent style, which perfectly mixes simplicity and rigour. "Beginning with a strict definition of real number, essentially that of Dedekind, he develops the calculus systematically, formulating every theorem with the greatest possible accuracy and precision, and strictly avoiding in the proofs any illegitimate appeal to intuitive properties of curves. When the customary enunciations of theorems are too loose, or conditions that need to be satisfied are not as a rule clearly stated, Peano often constructs counter-examples to show that assertions made in standard textbooks are incomplete or erroneous...." (Kneebone, Mathematical Logic and Foundations of Mathematics, p. 142). Cellerino nr. 1. "Prima edizione del primo libro di Peano che venne tradotto nel 1899 in tedesco e nel 1903 in russo. Pubblicato sotto il nome di Genocchi di cui Peano era assistente, il volume è in realtà interamente opera sua tanto che Genocchi lo disconobbe publicamente dando origine ad una breve polemice. Questa è l'opera che diede a Peano notorietà internazionale." (Cellerino, Guiseppe Piano e la sua scuola. Catalogo monografico. Milano, 2004).

Geneve, Barde & Compagnie, 1787. 8vo. In a fine contemporary half calf binding with five raised bands, red leather title label with gilt lettering and gilt ornamentations to spine. Boards recently repaired An extraordinarily fine copy. VI, 294 pp. The rare first printing of abbé Legros's fierce critique of physiocratic doctrines. The physiocratic school and the dawning liberalism dictated that the economic order should espouse as closely as possible the concatenation of causes which make up the order of Nature and that everything is interconnected in the human world as it is in nature. In his own early critique of this physiocratic political economy, the traditionalist Legros developed attacks which can equally well apply to Quesnay, Spinoza, Diderot or d'Holbach: "if this grand order, this concatenation [cet enchaînement], this general law of movement are eternal [...] if they are necessary, then they exist by themselves, by the necessity of their nature; they therefore replace the Divinity, they take its place; if the grand order is one and the only one, then there no longer is any moral order, any metaphysical order, any supernatural order." (From the present work: Pp 142-3).Legros (1739-1790) studied theology and functioned as a priest in St.-Aebeul. He always published under the name "d'un Solitaire".Einaudi 3300; INED 2773; Masui P. 406.

Titelbladet trykt i rød og sort. (2),70 pp. Lille hul nederst på sidste blads margin, en svaghed i papiret. Rent frisk eksemplar med brede marginer (ubeskåret !).Bound uncut in a very nice later half vellum binding w. gilt leather title-label. Old marbled paper over boards. Title-page printed in red and black. A small hole to the margin of final leaf, due to a weakness in the paper. A nice, clean copy with wide margins (uncut!). (2), 70 pp. Originaludgaven. Der findes mindst 5 varianter, som adskiller sig ved de anvendte citater , dels på titelbladet, dels på dennes bagside (se Gustav Rudbecks afhandling i Nordisk Tidsskrift för Bok-og Biblioteksväsen), hvor Rudbeck opstiller 5 varianter. Her antages de eksemplarer, som har citat af Ruffus Ephesius på titelbladet, at være blandt de første tryk. Vores eksemplar har følgende karakteristika: 1. Rufus-citatet på titelbladet - 2. Titelbladets verso har kun et stort trykkermærke (uden citater). Trykkermærket med stiliserede blade og fugl Phønix svævende over et bål belyst af solens stråler, og med et bånd hvorpå "Qui aluit Spero reseminabit". 3. Uden det senere trykte tillægsblad til siderne 15-16, men med det oprindelige "Tale" som fangord. 4. Bogen afsluttes med en i rødt trykt fugl Phønix. - At Rufus-trykket hører til de første varianter støttes endvidere af det faktum at ordet "Vederbörandes" er sat så højt på titelbladet at der ingen afstand er mellem dette og linjen ovenover. Sætningen af dette ord synes rettet i de senere tryk.Scarce first edition of the first handbook of Swedish anatomy. The importance of the work also lies in its introduction of several anatomical terms to Swedish.Roberg was the teacher of Carl Linné, and he taught medicine at Uppsala University from 1697 until 1740. He also founded the Nosocomium academicum, the later Uppsala Academy Hospital. There are at least five variant-printings of the first edition. Our copy seems to be the first, which is very scarce. The variants are difficult to determine, but the pointers are to be found in the quotations in the recto and verso of the title-page. According to Gustav Rudbeck's essay in "Nordisk Tidsskrift för Bok-og Biblioteksväsen", the copies with quotation of Ruffus Ephesius on the title-page are among the first issues. Our copy has the following pointers: 1. Rufus-quotation on the title-page, 2. The verso of the title-page only has the large printer's device (stylized leaves, and the bird Phoenix hovering above a fire, lit up by the rays of the sun, with a band with the words "Qui aluit Spero reseminabit") and no quotations. 3. Without the later printed addition to the pages 15-16, but with the original "Tale" as catch.word. 4. The last leaf ends with a Phoenix bird printed in red.That the Rufus-printings belong among the first, is further backed by the fact that the word "Vederbörandes" is placed so high on the title-page that there is no distance between that and the line above it. The placing of this word seems to be corrected in later issues.

lyn46629
Gotha, Julius Perthes, 1855-1874. 4to. Bound in 18 contemp. hcalf, some wear to the first 10 vols., some a bit rubbed. Some scattered brownspots to the first volumes. Gilt spines. Wear to top of spines. With a huge amount of original maps, plates, profiles etc., lithographed and engraved, large and folded and mainly in colour. This set does not include the "Ergänzungsbände". The first 19 (lacking vol. 14) volumes of this importent periodical from its "Golden Period". "Petermann's Mittheilungen" became the leading geographic publication of the world and remained so until World War I. All the new geographical discoveries, all the reports from the latest exploratory expeditions were published, and flowed into Petermann's Geographische Anstalt, and he took care to see that it was translated into cartographic form as quickly as possible. The maps soon came to have a reputation for containing the latest and the most accurate information available. Not only German, but international readers as well, came to see the 'Mitteilungen' as an indispensable organ for the world of geographical research.

ARAGO, FRANCOIS - LOUIS DAGUERRE. - THE INVENTION OF THE DAGUERREOTYPE.
Herman H. J. Lynge & Søn A/S
lyn46845
Paris, Bachelier, 1839. 4to. No wrappers. In: "Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences", Tome VIII (No.1)+ IX, (No. 8) Entire issues offered with htitles and titlepages to both volumes. Pp. 1-36 + Pp. 249-282 and 1 lithographed plate. The papers: pp. 4-7 and pp. 250-267. A faint stamp to top of titlepages. A few brownspots to titlepages. First Edition of the official and complete report of the invention of the "daguerreotype", the photographic process invented by Louis Daguerre. Together with the preliminary report of the invention (OF JANUARY 7). The presentation by Arago preceeded Daguerre's own publication "Historique de description des procédés du daguerreotype et du diorama", (1839). "When the attempt to exploit the process of daguerreotype was unsuccessfull, Daguerre and Nièpce decided to offer their method to the government. Daguerre approached Francois Jean Arago, to whom he imparted, under the seal of secrecy his processes and those of Nicéphore Niépce. It was fortunate that Arago possessed such a great insight into the invention, which he received enthusiastically. He reported the invention of the daguerretype to the Academy of Sciences on January 7, 1839. The secrecy, however, was not observed very carefully, for the "Gazette de France" published a note abouit it on January 6, 1839, although without printing any details."(Eder "History of Photography").

Berlin, Duncker und Humblot, 1826. 4to. Contemp. hcalf. Part of spine lacks, some of spine loose. IV,387,(1) pp. and 5 folded engraved plates. Wide margins, on good paper, light marginal browning, a few scattered brownspots. The whole volume of "Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik. Herausgegeben von A.L. Crelle" Erster Band. In 4 Heften. Mit 5 Kupfern. Abel's papers: pp. 11-15, pp. 65-84, pp. 159-60, pp. 185-221, pp. 311-339, pp. 153-160, pp. 117-136. First edition of all 7 papers, among these 3 of Abel's masterpieces: his attempt to demonstrate the impossibility of solving the quintic equation algebraically (Beweis der Unmöglichkeit...), one of the most celebrated theorems in mathematics and here offered as no. 2, the first direct use and solution of an integral equation (Auflösung einer mechanischen Aufgabe), here offered as no 6, and his investigations into the domaine of convergence of the binominal series (Untersuchungen über die Reihe...), here offered as no. 5."Crelle's Journal was the leading German mathematical periodical during the nineteenth century. The first volume alone contains seven papers by Abel and the following volumes contains many more, most of them of preeminent importence in the history of mathematics. Among the first is the expanded version of the proof of the impossibility of the solution of the general quintic equation by radicals. Here Abel developed the necessay algebraic backgriund, including a discussion of the algebraic field of extensions." (DSB)."All of Abel's works carry the imprint of an ingenuity and force of thought which is unusual and sometimes amazing, even if the youth of the author is not taken into consideration. One may say that he was able to penetrate all obstacles down to the very foundations of the problems, with a force which appeared irresistible; he attacked the problems with an extraordinary energy...all the difficulties seemed to vanish under the victorious onslaught of his genius..." (A.L. Crelle).Also contained in this volume is : "Über Gauss Methode, die Werthe der Integrale nährungsweise zu finden.", pp. 301-307.

På forpermen et blindtrykt monogram hvor bogstaverne TZZ er adskilte af et blindtrykt stempel. Nederst i blindtryk 1635. Fællestitelbladet trykt i rødt og sort indenfor en bred røskenramme. De 4 deltitelblade alle med årstallet 1634 og alle med den trykte deltitel inden for en bred træskåren renæssanceramme. Nederst i rammen et portræt af forfatteren. Alle blade med en smal træskåren røskenramme. (14),320,(72) blade. Med 120 halv-sides illustrationer i træsnit signerede IM, MI eller HH. Fællestitelbladet repareret i kanter, ellers gennemgående i god stand. Af en bogtrykt etiket på indersiden af forpermen fremgår det, at geheimestatsminister Otto Thott har skænket bogen til Herlufsholm, og af en tilskrift (underskrevet Wad) fremgår det, at eksemplaret er udgået af Herlufsholms Bibliotek ved salg 8.12.1878 som dublet. Her foreligger originaltrykket i den version som på titelbladet angiver "Waldkirch Arffvingers bekostning" (den anden "Peder Anderssøns bekostning"). Bogen er Heldvads mest omfangsrigeste værk i hans litterære produktion og omfatter 4 dele som er særdeles rigt illustreret med motiver fra bibelhistorien. Denne "samling af hellige historier" indeholder Jesu Liv efter Evangelierne, apostlenes historie, Danmarks kirkehistorie og martyrberetninger.Bøger fra det Thottske bibliotek er yderst sjældne i privateje. Otto Thott var en af Danmark største bogsamlere og hans bibliotek bestod ved hans død af mere end 120.000 bind og overgik herved til det kongelige bibliotek. Ved sin død skænkede han til Kongens Håndbibliotek både hele sin manuskriptsamling på 4154 numre, og en kostbar samling af 6159 bøger, der var trykt før 1530. Ved auktionen efter hans død blev 60.000 bind købt til kongens bibliotek.Bibl. Dan. I,128. - Thesaurus II,479. - Birkelund, 42. - Christian IV og Europa, 1681.

DITLEVSEN, TOVE.
Herman H. J. Lynge & Søn A/S
lyn60206
København, Athenæum, 1943. 8vo. Uncut in the original printed wrappers. Illustration on front wrapper by Arne Ungermann. With dedication from the author to front free end-paper: "Niels Høst / Med venlig Hilsen / Tove Ditlevsen / 4-12-43". (i.e. English: "Niels Høst / With kind regards / Tove Ditlevsen / 4-12-43"). Bookseller-label pasted on to verso back-wrapper. Light miscolouring to spine, otherwise very fine and clean. First edition, with author’s presentation inscription, of Ditlevsen’s magnum opus, perhaps her most read and beloved book. Ditlevsen is considered one of the most important and unique voices in twentieth-century Danish literature and many of the themes she touches upon rings a universal bell. Her works are particularly valuable as they dramatize the consequences of locking women into marriage, into the roles of wife and mother. A main theme in Ditlevsen’s authorship is class, but despite the proletarian milieu, the theme in Barndommens Gade is more that of gender. “The narrator shows solidarity in her account of a working-class childhood, but she nevertheless lets the central character judge the milieu from the perspective of middle-class values. This is especially true of the outspoken and brutal attitude to sexuality – which the narrator calls “unclean” – on the street and in the backyard. “Rough hands grope the body and bare it to the fleeing gaze.” When menstruation sets in, the “uncleanliness” enters the child’s world: “one morning, the mothers’ bloody inheritance comes with shame and harm to the untouched”." (Lise Busk-Jensen, The Labyrinth of Memory) In 2021, The New York Times, The New Yorker and The Guardian elected Tove Ditlevesen's recently translated "The Copenhagen Trilogy” as book of the year and celebrated Ditlevsen as one of the most important authors in 20th century literature. The book was made into a film in 1986 under title “Early Spring”.

KIERKEGAARD, SØREN.

Kjøbenhavn [Copenhagen], 1843-1845. 8vo. Near contemporary half calf with richly gilt spine. Binding with very light wear. Front free end-paper with the ownership-inscription of Michael Bentzon and his acquisition date of 1855 (the same year that Kierkegaard died). Some brownspotting here and there and the first couple of leaves of "To opbyggelige Taler, 1844" with a damp stain. Neat underlinings in the text as well as several marginalia, mostly in pencil. A very good copy indeed. (IV), 52, 62, 84, 59, 70, 111pp. Complete with all the half-titles and the joint title-page (without the blank leaf after the preface of "To opbyggelige Taler, 1844" - which is not called for and hardly ever present). First edition of Kierkegaard's important Eighteen Upbuilding Discourses, which comprise his two, three, and four upbuilding discourses from the years 1843-45, with the joint title-page of all eighteen. The work constitutes Kierkegaard's religious works, which supplement his theological and philosophical ones.The first upbuilding discourses were published the same year as Either-Or, and it is interesting to note that in opposition to his major philosophical works, the religious upbuilding discourses actually bear the name of the author on the title-page, -a fact that was by no means incidental. While the pseudonymous works could make one doubt the religiousness of the author, the parallelly written religious discourses stress the fact that we are dealing with an author, who was religious from the very beginning, -a fact that Kierkegaard also wished to underline himself; in his journals he clearly states that the religious discourses bear as much significance for his work as a whole as do the larger pseudonymous works, "I began with "Either-Or" and two upbuilding discourses..." he says, and explains that he intended the upbuilding, the religious, to advance, and that he wanted to show "that the writer was not an esthetic author who in the course of time grew older and for that reason became religious" (Journals, IX A 227).The importance of the upbuilding discourses and the close relationship they have with the major works and Kierkegaard's philosophical development is also stressed by the fact that every pseudonymous work was accompanied by a little collection of "upbuilding discourses" until "Concluding Postscript" appeared.Himmelstrup 85.

A few scattered brownspots, but clean, with broad margins and printed on good paper. First edition of this pioneering work, a classic of engineering, which constitutes practically the first scientific text-books on engineering and the first to apply integral calculus to technical and practical problems. It became the international standard-work for nearly 100 years and proved invaluable to architects, builders and engineers as it covers engineering mechanics, civil construction, mills and waterwheels, pumps, harbours and sea work etc. According to Rosenthal (Litt. d. Technologie, p. 209) the work was reprinted 12 times and thus with the best impressions of the plates (the first edition) - "Un tresor de recherches et de machines que l'Histoire de l'Hydraulique doit toujours annonce et célébrer."

Paris, Charles-Antoine Jambert, 1737-38. 4to. Bound in 2 cont. full mottled calf. 6 raised bands, richly gilt spines. Titlelabels with gilt lettering. Gilt borders on covers. A paperlabel pasted on upper compartment. Stamps on foot of title-pages. Engraved frontispiece (by Cochin), title ind red/black, (6) pp. (= dedication a Monsieur Turgot), XVI,198; VII,(3) ,180,(2 - errata) pp. Volume one having 44 fine engraved plates (42 double-or triple-page, 2 single-page) and 9 engraved head- and tail-pieces. Volume two having 108 fine engraved plates (numb. 1-98, nos. 23, 24, 99 lacks, no 25 omitted and 13 with double- or triple numbering) and 3 head- and tail-pieces. Most of the plates drawn and engraved by Blondel. All text-pages printed within a borderline. Light toning to inner margins in volume one.On good thick paper, fresh and clean. First edition, first issue (errata leaf and "Rue St. Jacques" for the printer on title) of Blondel's main architectural work, his monumental four-volume encyclopaedia of French buildings, which also constitutes his first work. The work is one of the most influential architectural treatises of the eighteenth century, as well as being one of the most comprehensive, beautiful and celebrated architectural works of the Rococco-period.Jacques-François Blondel (1705-74) is considered the most significant French architectural educator of the eighteenth century. After having produced his first work, the seminal "De la Distribution..." at the age of 33, Blodel was so admired that he was asked to produce engravings for the festival book commemorating the celebration of the wedding of Madame Elizabeth of France to Dom Philippe of Spain. In 1740 he opened the "Ecole des Arts" with his architectural courses and became one of the earliest founders of schools of architecture in France, for which he was distinguished by the French Academy. Both through these couses and his works, he greatly influenced many later architects, such as Brongniart, Chalgrin, Desprez, Rondelet, as well as many other Europeans, who took Neoclassicism back with them from Paris. In 1755 he was inducted into the Académie Archtecture and he was appointed architect to Louis XV. He also contributed to the great Éncyclopédie of Diderot and d'Alembert.The first volume of his main work deals with the design of houses, the second with exterior ornamentation and interior designs and lay-out of gardens. Brunet I:977; Cohen-Ricci: 156-57.
