Overall a very good copy of this important work. "Kaempfer was a well known German physician and naturalist with a passion for travelling. Before his arrival in Japan, he had accompanied the Swedish embassy under Louis Fabricius to Persia., then engaging as surgeon with the Dutch fleet, visited India and Batavia, and at length reached Japan, where he stayed three years collecting material for his work. Here he secured the good will of the authorities so completely that he was allowed to travel where and as he pleased. He returned to Europe in 1693 and published an account of his travels under the title of Amoenitates Exoticae. His History of Japan has long been recognized as the most authoritative account of that country published at the time" (Cox). Of particular importance in this book are the maps: "Although maps of all kinds topped the list of prohibitions [of things not permitted to leave Japan], Kaempfer managed to smuggle out ten: four of Japan; one each of the cities of Osaka, Kyoto and Nagasaki; two very rare maps of Edo; and a pictorial map covering the land and sea routes from Edo to Nagasaki. In the History, he stressed the difficulties involved in obtaining any plans, particularly of Edo. Yet his description of the intricate layout of Edo castle was to horrify one interpreter who remarked how 'terrible' it was that a European had acquired so much precise information about the seat of the shogunate. Kaempfer's maps of Japan (based on Shinsen dai Nihon zukan, one of the earliest maps to have shown Hokkaido), though considerably modified by Scheuchzer, were to have an enormous influence on generations of European cartographers' (Fathom).

DECIMATIO MENTHAE ET RUTAE (.).'Original antique print showing a scene from the biblical new testament: Jesus pronounces God's judgment on the scribes and Pharisees.Made by J. A. Fridrich after Jakob Scheuchzer.Medium: Engraving/etching on hand laid (verge) paper.Sheet size: 21.8 x 34.5 cm… (8.58 x 13.58 inch). Image size: 20 x 31 cm. (7.87 x 12.2 inch).NEW TESTAMENT-BOOK OF MATTHEW-JESUS-JUDGMENT-SCRIBES-PHARIZEES-BIBLE | PCO-A37-19BACKGROUND INFORMATIONThis attractive print originates from: Physica Sacra by Johann Jakob Scheuchzer, published in Augsburg, 1731-1735. Scheuchzer believed that the Old Testament was a factual account of the history, of the world. He initiated a major project to explain Biblical events in terms of physics, medicine, and natural history. His aim was to prove the existence of God through science, but the Swiss authorities initially refused to grant him a permit to publish it. Eventually a lushly illustrated edition of this extraordinary work as printed between 1731 and 1735 in the great German publishing center Augsburg. Entitled ?Jobi physica sacra oder Hiobs Natur-Wissenschaft verglichen mit der heutigen?, the work became known as the Physica Sacra or the Kupfer-Bibel. It became famous for its elaborate illustrations, in which each biblical story was framed with an architectural border containing details relevant to the chapter depicted.Biography engraver: Akob Andreas Fridrich the Elder (German, Nuremberg 16841751), german engraver.Biography artist: Author: Johann Jakob Scheuchzer (1672-1733) was a physician by training, with a strong interest in natural history and paleontology. Born in Switzerland, the son of a physician, he studied at University in Germany & later returned to Zurich to take a professorship in Mathematics. Like many scientists of the day, he considered the Old Testament a factual account of the history of the earth. In his extensive travels he amassed one of the largest fossil collections of the 18th century. He hypothesized that all plants had perished in the flood described in the bible, & discovered what he believed to be the fossil of a human flood victim. In his masterpiece, Physica Sacra, he details his theory at length, using references to the 1611 King James Bible. The book was a sensation & was published simultaneously in Latin, German & French, each issue with exactly the same plates. His theories were not disproved until the work of Cuvier. Engraved by B. Probst. Condition: good, given age. A few minor spots in caption area. General age-related toning and/or occasional minor defects from handling. Please study scan carefully.
