Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Adelaide, Libraries Board of South Australia, 1962 (facsimile edition, but see our footnote)/ 1844. Octavo, [212] pages (this edition, printed one side only on leaves uncut along the leading edge). Synthetic cloth slightly marked; edges, endpapers and first leaf a little foxed; an excellent copy.… Peade SA40: one of only 51 copies. Rare even in facsimile form, and not generally recognized as being an important variant. Not even the authorised bibliography by Peade records the fact that the original from which this facsimile edition was produced contained, often on interleaved blanks, extensive manuscript additions attributed to Schurmann.

By C. G. Teichelmann, C. W. Schurmann, of the Lutheran Missionary Society, Dresden. Adelaide: published by the Authors, at the Native Location, 1840 Wrpps, 8vo. [2],viii,[2],24,[2],76pp. errata leaf. "In presenting the following pages to the public, the writers deem it their duty to state the objects and motives for doing so. Th…e chief motives are - to keep up the good understanding, and to facilitate the intercourse, between the Aborigines and Europeans; to give to the latter a medium of communication, and, especially, assistance to those who may be inclined to acquire the language; to enliven the hopes of those who wish the christianization and civilization of their colored fellow-men, showing them that a race of human beings possessing a language so regular in its formation and construction as that of the South Australian natives, cannot be incapable of either; and to refute premature and unjust detractions concerning the mental capabilities of the Aborigines of Australia." Contemporary signature dated 1841 to front endpaper with a note in German. Wrappers slightly marked and worn, a very nice copy of the first edition in the publisher's blue wrappers. COPAC lists four copies. [Ferguson: 3102] We have been selling antiquarian books on Africa, Oceania, archaeology, anthropology, travel and the ancient world for over forty years.
