"Ercker's treatise is the most authoritative contemporary work on 16th-century metallurgy and assaying. Ercker gave a systematic review of methods of testing alloys and minerals and of obtaining and refining various metals, as well as methods of manufacturing acids, salts and other chemical compounds, including saltpeter. He described the apparatus and laboratory equipment used in metallurgy and assaying and gave a detailed account of laboratory methods, all of which he himself had used." (Norman) "Erker's Beschreibung may be regarded as the first manual of analytical and metallurgical chemistry. The only one of Ercker's works to contain many drawings, it presents a systematic review of the methods of testing alloys and minerals of silver, gold, copper, antimony, mercury, bismuth, and lead; of obtaining and refining these metals, as well as of obtaining acids, salts, and other compounds. The last chapter is devoted to saltpeter. Ercker's account of the fact that zinc precipitates other metals from solutions is to be found only in the 1684 and later editions" (DSB). First printed in 1574, this is the second edition to include Christian Berward?s important lexicon of mining terms, ?Interpres Phraseologiae Metallurgicae?.

4to., (10 5/8 x 6 6/8 inches). Title-page printed in red and black. Catalogue of Mr. Howell's works at end. Engraved frontispiece portrait of the author leaning against an English oak by Abraham Bosso titled "Heictutus Obumbror" (mounted on slightly heavier contemporary stock), folding panoramic view of London by Wenceslaus Hollar (laid down on heavier contemporary stock, creased, small repair at fold, browning and spotting throughout). 19th-century calf gilt (covers detached). Provenance: Near contemporary ownership inscription on title-page dated 10th December 1661, and copious marginal annotations. First edition, the frontispiece portrait in Pforzheimer's fifth state. With a fine view of London before the Great Fire. James Howell was appointed Royal historiographer to Charles II in 1660 - the apex of a somewhat checkered career as a traveler, diplomat, linguist, writer, parliamentarian and spy. On the eve of the Civil War he was appointed Secretary of the Privy Council, a post he was never able to occupy, instead he was imprisoned in Fleet for eight years during the interregnum for his Royalist leanings. "Londinopolis" was written after his release and is mostly a condensed version of John Stow"s "Survey of London" published in 1598. Stow's book contained amusing anecdotes and descriptions but also detailed accounts of the buildings, social conditions and customs of London.

Venice : Apud Ioannem Variscum [Giovanni Varisco], 1588. First (and only) edition. Octavo (190 x 140 mm), modern brown cloth over boards; faint trace of stamp tp front free endpaper, original first blank with early ownership signature to verso (browned, clipped at upper corner), title-page with vignette woodcut printer's device, and with coat of arms to verso; pp. [7] (Dedication to Francesco Maria II della Rovere, Duke of Urbino), [1] (foreword by Paulus Manutius), [2] (foreword by Judah Alchalay), [4] (index), 1-127; decorative woodcut initials; sidenotes; first few leaves with a mild horizontal crease at centre, some occasional and very light foxing, otherwise clean and crisp throughout; a very good copy in a modern binding. David de' Pomis (1525-1593) was a physician, philosopher and linguist, born in Spoleto to a Jewish family of bankers. He commenced medical studies in Todi under two of his uncles (both rabbis) and continued them at Perugia, where he received his doctorate in 1551.He was then for a brief period rabbi and physician at Magliano in Tuscany. However, there followed a number of years of insecurity during which successive papal edicts withdrew and restored the right of Jewish physicians to attend Christians; de' Pomis found himself forced to keep moving from town to town in Italy, finally settling in Venice in 1569. It was here that he published most of his works. His tract De Medico Hebraeo Enarratio Apologica(Venice, 1588) is a refutation ofaspects of a bull of 1581 issued by Gregory XIII (1572-85) which brought various charges against Jews - and, more specifically, Jewish physicians. De' Pomis argues that, in accordance with the teachings of the Bible as well as the Talmud, a Jewish physician is morally obligated to attempt to alleviate the suffering of every patient. He also cites numerous cases in the historical record to illustrate the fact that Jewish doctors can and have distinguished themselves by their medical prowess and civic-mindedness. The last section comprises a selection of Talmudic rules translated into Latin, presented as a form of collective argument to counter the charge that the Talmud is to be despised for its moral character. The writings of the learned De? Pomis were wide-ranging. He is now perhaps best known for his trilingualHebrew, Latin, and Italian dictionary, the ?ema? David (Venice, 1587), which he dedicated to Pope Sixtus V - although this work is more than a straightforward dictionary, since it also contains disquisitions on scientific and historical subjects. He also wrote a philosophical essay on human suffering,Discorso intorno a l'humana miseria e sopra il modo di fuggirla(Venice, 1572), a treatise on the plague (Venice, 1577), and another on geriatric conditions (Venice, 1588). Very rare. No sale record traced on Rare Book Hub.

Condition: Good. Folio. 34 x 21 cm. Original contemporary stiff vellum with 6 raised bands. [2], viii, 602, [10], 224pp. Two columns printed in Latin and Greek in the first part and Latin only in the second part. Waterstain in the lower right corner throughout. The map is bound in front of page 1 and is in fine and fresh condition.This unique map was first printed as part of Isaac Casaubon's edition of Strabo's Geographia in 1587. In this, the first printing there are columns of text underneath rhe map with the heading, "Lectori S. P." In later editions the map was included in the well known Mercator atlas, which Rumold compiled. In 1603, the plate developed cracks in the top edge of the plate; two distinct cracks can be seen in the title.The preeminent example of Rumold Mercator's map of the world, first printed in this edition in Geneva in 1587. It is based on Gerard Mercator's celebrated 1569 world map and was made while Gerard was still alive (1512- 1594). This is the only collectible world map with direct input from Gerard Mercator, the greatest geographer of his era. Both his 1538 and 1569 world maps are unobtainable rarities.The present work is a reduced version of the 1569 wall map of the world, on which the revolutionary Mercator Projection was introduced. This edition makes the map into a double-hemisphere format, rather than the projection style.To the left is the western hemisphere. The prominent bulge in South America, a characteristic introduced by Gerard Mercator and evident on his 1569 world map, has been retained here. Tierra del Fuego forms part of a gigantic southern continent that continues in the eastern hemisphere. At the north pole, two of the four islands that Gerard Mercator thought surrounded the pole are evident. There is also a suggestion of a Northwest Passage via the Straits of Anian.Isaac Casaubon, (1559, Geneva ?died July 1, 1614, London). French classical scholar and theologian who was one of the leading scholars of the era.He was born in Geneva on 18th February 1559, a son of Huguenot parents Arnaud and Jeanne. He was educated at the university in his home town and taught Greek there. His first wife was Marie Prolyst but she and their daughter died. In 1586 in Geneva he married Florence, daughter of Henry Estienne and they had seventeen children, of whom about half did not survive infancy. His first major published work was on the Greek geographer Strabo and many other works followed. The invitation to come to England seems to have come from Richard Bancroft, Archbishop of Canterbury. Isaac was later made a prebendary of Canterbury but died in London on 1st July 1614.References: This first edition not in OCLC.

Mercator was born in Rupelmonde in East Flanders. He studied in Louvain under Gemma Frisius, a Dutch astronomer and mathematician, and began his career as a cartographer in that city, where the excellence of his work eventually won him the patronage of Charles V. In order to escape religious persecution, he moved in 1552 to Duisburg. There, he continued to produce maps, globes and instruments, including his most celebrated work, a world map on eighteen sheets drawn to his new projection (1569). In later life he devoted himself to the preparation of his three-volume collection of maps to which, for the first time, the word "atlas" was applied. The word was chosen, he wrote, "to honor the Titan, Atlas, King of Mauritania, a learned philosopher, mathematician, and astronomer." Mercator's sons and grandsons were all cartographers and made their contributions in various ways to the great atlas. His son Rumold, in particular, was responsible for the complete edition of 1595.

Folio (16 2/8 x 11 2/8 inches). Three engraved title-pages (the first with early abrasion where ownership inscription has been erased) and 50 fine double-page engraved maps, and one full page, all with fine contemporary hand-color, descriptive letterpress on the recto of each map, each verso blank, woodcut initials, single blank leaves bound in before the first maps in the Netherlands (Belgii) and Germany sections (last map of Hungary, with early hot wax stains to verso affecting the image). Contemporary limp vellum, yapp fore-edges, title in manuscript on the spine, map of Germany with symetrical closed marginal tears, extending 4 inches into the image). Provenance: early marginal note to +v. Mercator's earliest collection of modern maps, first issued in 1585 by Gerard Mercator, initially issued separately or combined with the second part "Italia" published in 1589. This copy conforms with Koeman's collation for the issue of the three parts as they were published as part of the first Mercator atlas "Atlas sive Cosmographicae", 1595, issue A [Koeman Me13A], although this copy does not include the portrait and has the dedication dated 1585. Koeman argued that the resetting of the text was indicative of the later 1595 issues. Other authorities have argued against this hard and fast rule. The uncolored copy in the Nordenskiold Collection [Nordenskiold 2, 138] conforms broadly to this copy, although with its later binding may well have been taken from a 1595 issue of the larger atlas. It is highly likely, given the popularity of Mercator's work, that the stocks of the 1585 issue ran out before Mercator's death in 1594. Gerard Mercator was paralysed by a stroke in 1590, and the existence of this atlas in its contemporary binding suggests that Gerard or Rumold had the text reset well in advance of the completion of the full atlas, and had continued to sell the three parts as a single volume. Mercator was born in Rupelmonde in East Flanders. He studied in Louvain under Gemma Frisius, a Dutch astronomer and mathematician, and began his career as a cartographer in that city, where the excellence of his work eventually won him the patronage of Charles V. In order to escape religious persecution, he moved in 1552 to Duisburg.
