1670 Theatrum Europaeum Matthaeus Merian German Illustrated Portraits MAPS Wars
Matthaeus Merian was one of, if not the most important Swiss engraver from the 17th-century. He created maps and city plans in conjunction with other German geographers, and many of these illustrations would appear in 'Theatrum Europaeum' – the best 17th-century periodical on the history of German-speaking lands. This journal is filled with impressive engravings – mainly portraits and maps – and features articles and essays pertaining to a specific time period in Europe.
This volume of 'Theatrum Europaeum' covers the years 1633-1638 and was written by Heinrich Oraeus. And while the essays are notable, it is the illustrations that make this work such a desirable piece. Matthaeus Merian's engravings are still popular today for many reasons, but his influence on future illustrators, such as Wenceslas Hollar, was lasting.

Description:
1499 Mantuanus Poetry + 1507 Satires of Persius Post-Incunable Satyrae ROME Roce Along with Juvenal, Persius was one of the greatest 1st century Roman satirists. His works consisted of elements of stoicism and were greatly influenced by Horace and Juvenal, in fact the satires of both Juvenal and Persius are often found published together. In his 'Satires', Persius sought a few major philosophical ideas:
·
important questions to ask the gods
·
the meaning of life
·
the importance of gaining knowledge
·
freedom through Stoicism
·
the proper use of money
This 1507 post-incunable printing of Persius's 'Satyrae' was published in Paris by Jean Barbier and Denis Roce. This edition was edited by Giovanni Britannico, a 15th-century grammarian who is best known for his edition of Persius.
This book is bound with another early Roce printing of Baptista Mantuanus poetry. Mantuanus was a Carmelite poet whose 15th-century works were influential during the Protestant… Read More

Description:
1744 RAREST George Anson Voyage to South-Seas South America Brazil Peru Chile George Anson was an 18th-century British Navy admiral who is noted for his important world voyage in which he circumnavigated the globe. This voyage, beginning in 1740, was initiated in order to disrupt Spain and their acquisitions from the Pacific – even though the squadron saw certain danger.
"Anson's voyage is remembered as a classic tale of endurance and leadership in the face of fearful disasters" (Rodger, 239)
He saw substantial victory by capturing Spanish ships carrying pieces of eight, silver, and other treasure; thus, allowing Anson to return home a very rich sailor. This voyage took Anson and company into South America and home by way of China – a true world voyage!
Authorship of this work is held with some ambiguity. According to the DNB and Sabin,
