Lasium di questa celebre opera alla quale hanno ampiamente attinto tutti i successivi trattati sul modo di conservare la salute.

L' esemplare contiene molte note manoscritte coeve, in greco e latino ai margini con chiara grafia, che riteniamo essere di grande interesse data l' estensione e il rigore della notazione. Alcune lievi ombreggiature ma ottimo esemplare marginoso.

Manuscrit. Bon. En Feuilles. 44 pp. in-4 ou in-8, souvent découpées, montées sur papier et annotées. Impressionnant exemple du travail à quatre mains d'Edouard Pichon avec son oncle Jacques Damourette. Il s'agit d'un "rapport préliminaire" de Pichon datant de 1915, remis en forme et annoté vers 1940-1943 par son oncle Jacques Damourette. "Le plan de l'EGLF [Essai de Grammaire de la langue française] comprenait une partie sur l'utilisation artistique de la langue française, partie qui, à la suite du développement des travaux, n'a pas été exécutée. L'article sur la rime que l'on va lire est un rapport préliminaire écrit par Pichon en vue de cette partie de l'ouvrage. Il m'a paru intéressant de le mettre sous les yeux du lecteur, sans changer le texte de Pichon, tout en faisant observer que ce rapport est une oeuvre de…

Salem, N.J., 1840. Hardcover. Good. [approx. 650] p.; 41 cm. Remains of original leather binding. Ledger book of David Smith Darmon (1815-1879), a saddler in Salem, N.J. The first part of the ledger begins on April 15, 1840, and goes to Feb. 26, 1858, in Salem, N.J. The next page is headed "Philadelphia July 16 1859." The Philadelphia entries run through March 1860. The next page is headed "The Regular Book of Entries Belonging to David S. Darmon" and starts with April 11, 1865, in Salem, N.J. This suggests that the business had been taken over by David Smith Darmon, one of the sons of David Smith Darmon (1815-1879), the latter generally known as Smith Darmon. This section runs to April 1875. The next section begins in Salem in Feb. 1889 but does not identify the person who "Commenced business this date." It runs to the beginning of 1892. The final section contains entries from the 1870s. David Smith Darmon (1815-1879) worked with leather as well as renting…

Loose sheets of typescript loosely laid in to a construction paper folder with a pictorial label affixed to the front. Some hand-written corrections and changes in pencil. Wear, chipping and a few small, closed tears around edges of covers, hole evident where sheets had previously been held down by a fastener, else a clean manuscript.A manuscript for an unpublished book of poems by Oz author Ruth Plumly Thompson, probably submitted to Volland for publication, but ultimately not produced.

"Confessions Of John Noyes," autobiography of controversial Oneida founder John Humphrey Noyes, (1849; 96 pages), who after undergoing a religious conversion in 1834 during a meeting conducted by fiery revivalist Charles Grandison Finney, decided to dedicate his life to the theology of Perfectionism, and by 1836 had established a commune of "Free Church," or "Bible Socialists," at Putney, Vermont where they remained for twelve years until forced to move to New York’s Oneida Indian Reserve to avoid prosecution for adultery, owing to their practice of universal marriage. "Confessions," published the first year at Oneida, is Noyes’ personal account of his life and religious evolution, plus a history of Perfectionism; (2.)

Description:
When France's King Henry II died in 1559 and his sickly 15-year-old heir Francis II followed the next year, the throne went to 10-year-old Charles Maximilian, who became Charles IX; his mother, Catherine de' Medici, dominated his reign, which is noted for the Wars of Religion and for the infamous St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre of 1572. Partial vellum DS, 1p, 11" X 8", n.p., n.y. [September 1570 lightly pencilled in another hand]. Very good. Folds and mild bit of wear evident, but overall handsome and boldly penned. Though penned in difficult early French (which is to modern French what Elizabethan English is to modern English) and not accompanied by a translation, this is a probate approval legal document. Below six lines of finely penned legalese, Charles signs at left with his usual enormous signature in a different and somewhat lighter ink. Below this appears another sentence in a large flamboyant hand (which appears to refer to Provence) and huge ornate signature of an official. This atmospheric…

Description:
Small Octavo. Latin manuscript is written in poetic style by C.P.F. Kurrer who was a distinguished member of the famed Latin Society of Jena. 89p. OCLC notes that a 16-page edition was published in Tubingen by Fues in 1786. This much larger version of several thousand lines is entirely handwritten in Latin poetic style. As William Clark as noted in his Charismata and the Origin of Research Universities, p. 158ff., "The Latin Society of Jena (founded 1733) ..required members to submit written dissertations exhibiting eloquence and erudition." This was, of course, in contrast to the universities which like their English counterparts were still under the domain of the Aristotelian dominance through the Middle Ages and into the Early Modern period. These highly literate societies which existed outside the university system of rote memory became (as Clark noted) the predecessor of the modern university system with seminars and original research. The Societas Latina Jenensis according to the Scholarly…

Alors que la guerre fait rage et qu'il sent sa fin proche, le psychanalyste expose sa doctrine politique, très nettement maurrassienne : "Au moment où, avec les armées, les flottes et les escadrilles, se heurtent les idées et plus encore les conceptions morales, il n'est pas inutile d'essayer de déceler nettement, sous les nuances variées et les aspects multiformes que lui imposent les circonstances particulières, l'antagonisme foncier qui déchire l'humanité." L'opposition est selon lui entre d'une part "l'humanisme" (centré sur la personne) et…
