Book
Folio. Cloth-backed boards. Four illustrations drawn within the text in pencil; text printed only on the rectos. Original owner's inscription to the title page: "Joseph A. Daniel/Christ's College/Cambridge". Minor amount of wear to the edges of the boards. Ex-libris of Richard Freeman, bibliographer of Charles Darwin, initialed by him with notes of cost on ffep. An exceptionally rare item with fantastic provenance. COPAC lists three copies at Cambridge, the Natural History Museum and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew; no copies have come up at auction. It is unclear as to who has done the illustrations in this copy; the copy held at Cambridge has similar drawings, with some variations. Perhaps the illustrations were all done by hand by the authors, though this isn't explicitly stated anywhere in the book. There are references to Charles Darwin throughout this work, most notably on f.42 where a letter from Charles Darwin to Joseph Hooker is quoted.

Includes also sections on Instruments / "Pleararkeh Na Rough" / Lorenzo Bocchi / Includes a biographical section on Harper - Composers Rory Dall O'Cathain, Mile O'Reilly, Thomas & William Connellan, Thady Keenan, Turlough O'Carolan etc. Includes a List of 49 Tunes which are then in the following pages critically analyzed. John Neal (Neale) - Article Contributed by Daniel Beaumont (to DIB.ie): Neal (Neale), John (fl.1701 40), publisher of music, manufacturer of musical instruments, and musician, worked in Dublin throughout his adult life and may have been born in the city. He appears, c.1701, running a recorder-making shop in Christ Church Lane, Dublin. From c.1714 he was a member of a social and musical group that met initially at the Cross Keys tavern near Christ Church cathedral, Dublin. Laurence Whyte (qv), the poet and a fellow member of the group, wrote in a poem that honest John [Neal] took up his German flute and that his son Billy play'd the fife when they gathered at the tavern. The German flute is a one-keyed conical flute, and Neal would have been one of the first musicians to play this instrument in Ireland. By June 1721 his shop was based in Christ Church Yard from where he dominated the Dublin music trade selling musical instruments and printed sheet music, much of which was imported from England. He was also perhaps the first to manufacture violins and recorders in Ireland. From 1723 the increasing interest in printed music books led him to produce his own copper plates rather than rely on English imports. In 1724 he published A collection of the most celebrated Irish tunes proper for the violin and German flute or hautboy. This collection of forty-nine compositions constitutes the earliest known printed collection of Irish music and includes the earliest recorded compositions by Turlough Carolan (qv) and other important Irish harpers. Most of the music probably dates from the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century, although a few popular melodies may have been preserved in the folk memory for much longer. Neal probably collected these pieces at his own weekly musical meetings, which met at Mr Neal's musick room in Christ Church Yard. In about 1723 he became president of the social and musical club which then met at the Bull's Head tavern in Fishamble Street, and later became the Charitable and Musical Society. Between 1723 and 1733 Neal published at least twenty-one volumes of printed music including four quarto books of the Best English airs and minuets, Irish tunes and Scotch tunes for the violin (1724), music after the Italian manner by Lorenzo Bocchi , music from the Beggar's opera , curious musical cards for the German flute, and five collections of country dances, scored for violin, flute, recorder and keyboard. One item was dedicated to the duke of Hamilton and Brandon, and in 1724 Neal wrote that he had secured subscriptions from most of the Scotch nobility . All his printed music was published jointly with his son William Neal (d. 1769), music shopkeeper, music-hall proprietor, publisher and musician. William was the sole publisher of a further eight volumes of music between 1734 and c.1744. John Neal was still alive in 1739 and may have died c.1740. After this date William seems to have been able to divert considerable resources into managing concerts and property speculation rather than as a musical-instrument maker. William was elected treasurer and managing director of the Charitable Musical Society c.1741, and in September 1741 a new music room was built on Fishamble Street. Neal must have provided most of the funding himself, as the building came to be known as Neal's Music Hall . The venue could hold 700 people and became very popular. It was here on 13 April 1742 that Handel's Messiah was first performed. William built and let houses on Crow Street, Wood Quay, and Inns Quay in Dublin city, and in Raheny, Co. Dublin. By the mid 1740s William seems to have left the musical-instrument-making business and his address became the Music Hall . He extended the hall in 1751 and it was a leading venue for concerts, assemblies, and balls in the 1750s and 1760s. By 1750 he felt affluent enough to style himself as gent and in 1763 he was described as master of the great music hall . William died 18 December 1769 (his wife, who was noted for her hospitality in Dublin society, died in 1763). After his death he was described as a gentleman very justly esteemed by all those who had the happiness of his acquaintance, for his great humanity and friendship (Gilbert, i, 80). They left at least one son, John Neal II (c.1733 1791), musician and surgeon, who maintained the family's musical tradition. He was a child prodigy and first played in public at a concert in Dublin in February 1743 when he was just ten years old. He almost certainly played at his father's music hall and was a member of a musical academy in Dublin. He was probably the Mr Neal who was appointed to the board of the Rotunda Gardens concerts in 1769. In 1787 he played at a royal command performance for George III in London and in 1789 was leader of a thanksgiving concert (for the recovery of the king) held at Christ Church cathedral, Dublin. He had a particular interest in the music of Geminiani and Corelli and his tone was considered to be superior to that of Giordani. He died in December 1791. In one obituary he was described as one of the first gentleman performers of the violin in Europe (Dublin Evening Post, 15 Sept. 1791). The music titles published by John and Willi.

First Edition
First Edition in English. 145 x 85 mm. (5 3/4 x 3 1/2"). 8 p.l., 175 pp.Translated from the Latin by Leonard Sowersby. Probably early 19th century polished calf, covers with gilt-rule border, raised bands, spine panels with blind-stamped eight-point star ornament, gilt lettering. Woodcut headpieces and decorative initial, full-page woodcut in the text showing a memory theater. Verso of title page with red ink "Duplicate" stamp of the library of Bernard Zufall and with ink owner inscription of George Harris, FSA, Iselipps Manor, Northolt, dated 1870; blank verso of final leaf inscribed in ink: "27 Feb: 1741 Beasley." Wing W-2812; Lowndes IV, 2938; ESTC R24570. See Engel, ed. "The Memory Arts in Renaissance England" (2016), chapter I.7. â Covers a bit stained, extremities rather rubbed, front joint with thin cracks, leaves light browned at edges, margins trimmed a bit close (occasionally grazing page numbers or shoulder notes), but certainly a very usable copy, being generally clean and fresh internally, in an unsophisticated binding that is still solid. This is a copy of a work the Cambridge University Press describes as "the most thoroughly developed English treatise on the memory arts that is not directly indebted to continental sources." Memory skills cultivated by the Greeks and Romans (as an aid for oration) were largely forgotten until revived during the Renaissance, and when they were demonstrated to astonished contemporaries, their practitioners were denounced as sorcerers. The present "Mnemonica" by Willis (d. 1628?), already well known for publishing the first practical shorthand system, is an early 17th century publication in this same tradition. First printed in Latin in 1618, it is divided into three parts: the first dealing with the use of writing (and describing various familiar note and study aids); the second with the use of verse to aid retention and, where impractical, with a standard list of questions to elicit deeper recall; and the third with the use of sight, such as public monuments, or tying a string on one's finger, as a mnemonic device. The substantive part of this final section, which Willis calls "local" memory, teaches the technique of associating things to be remembered with objects set on an imaginary stage, which the author calls his "memory theatre." It is very probable that the use of this "theatre" had a direct influence on the work of Robert Fludd, whose "Ars Memoriae" of 1619 contains a memory system with strikingly similar "theatres." The present copy comes from the library of magician and memory expert Bernard Zufall (1894-1971), known as the "Human Encyclopedia." Zufall amassed the largest known collection of books on mnemonics, in excess of 1,000 titles, which (except for duplicates like the present work) he donated to Yale University. The volume was previously in the collection of barrister George Harris (1809-90), who preferred literary pursuits to the practice of law. As indicated by DNB, after marriage to an heiress put him "beyond anxiety in money matters," he was free to dedicate himself to his interests, including the Anthropological Society of London and a society dedicated to psychical research. His most important contribution to scholarship was his suggestion that all Medieval manuscripts in private hands should be listed in a catalogue; this led to the creation of the Historical Manuscripts Commission. "Mnemonica" is a rare book in the marketplace: RBH lists just four copies at auction since 1930.

Sir Howard Colvin?s good set of this full and still valuable account of the architectural history of the University of Cambridge and its colleges, originally put in hand by the Rev. Robert Willis (1800-1875), Jacksonian Professor of Natural Philosophy at the University of Cambridge, who Nikolaus Pevsner regarded as the greatest English architectural historian of the nineteenth century. The text originated as a lecture that Willis had given to the Archaeological Institute, but he died before the book was complete, and bequeathed his manuscript to his nephew and Cambridge University colleague John Willis Clark. Clark carried out detailed research, corroborated and edited Willis? text, and eventually produced this monumental work, well illustrated with plates taken from Le Keux?s Memorials of Cambridge. The set includes the accompanying volume of plans. Large 8vo. 4 vols. xxxvi+cxxxiv+(2)+630pp, 19 engraved plates, some double-page ; xiii+(3)+776pp, 32 plates, some double-page, 1 colour ; xi+(1)+722pp, 5 plates, one of which double-page ; vipp, (30) engraved plates, 14 of which double-page, 4 single-page, and 12 with printed tracing paper overlays (9 of those colour).

Four vintage reference photographs from the 1963 film, all four showing director John Schlesinger on the set. From the archive of film historian and author Joel Finler. Based on the 1959 novel by Keith Waterhouse. A working class teenager living with his parents in a small Yorkshire town spends his time dreaming and compulsively lying to others in order to distract himself from his boring job as an undertaker's clerk. A key film in the British New Wave, balancing the experimental techniques of the French New Wave with the gritty disillusionment of kitchen sink realism. Shot on location in Bradford, Yorkshire. 10 x 8 inches. About Very Good, moderately edgeworn. One with light toning, and one with light creasing that has been reinforced with paper tape on the verso. Criterion Collection 121.

Manuscript / Paper Collectible Signed
1 pp., manuscript letter on sheet measuring 8" x 10". An intriguing letter to Sam Houston as a U.S. Senator, from a party of Virginia democrats, docketed by Houston. This is an ostensibly routine invitation to a July 28th and 29th 1848 mass meeting at the Orange Co., Virginia Court House, written by several prominent Virginia Democrats. Though the real purpose of the letter is not stated overtly, the timing as well as a phrase calling Houston an "able and zealous advocate of the true doctrines and just rights of our country" suggest that the invitation is part of a last ditch effort by slave state Democrats to shift Houston's eventual yea vote on the admission of Oregon as a free territory in August of 1848. Though not an abolitionist, Houston was a staunch supporter of the Missouri compromise and the preservation of the Union. His refusal to support secession would force his ouster as Texas Governor at the outbreak of the Civil War. He remained in the state and would die there in 1863 having never supported the Confederacy. The letter is signed by/for John Willis, James Newman, Edmund Henshaw, James B. Newman and John M. Chapman. It is docketed thus on the verso in Houston's hand: "a committee of invitation from Orange Co Va John Willis & Others." CONDITION: Damp-stained, old folds.
