1727 Julius Caesar WAR Commentaries Military Tactics MAPS Bellum Hirtius Davies

"If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it!"
– Julius Caesar

A rare collection of civil war histories and Julius Caesar war commentaries!

Julius Caesar's war commentaries are some of the most prolific military writings! While not specifically known for his writing, Julius Caesar wrote this book which would become a mainstay in the Latin literature canon. It focuses on first-hand account of Julius Caesar in the Callic wars, but it was written as though from a third-person view.

This 1727 edition was published in Cambridge and includes notes and commentary by Joannes Brantius, Pedro Chacon, Francis Hotman and John Davies. It should be noted that included in this edition is Aulus Hirtius' Bellum Alexandrinum and his continuation of Caesar's De bello Gallico.

Description:
1720 1ed Brussels Massacre Belgium Sacrament of Miracle Judaica Jews

A rare historical account of the Sacrament of Miracle by Petrus Cafmeyer. The Sacrament of Miracle, also known as the Brussels Massacre, was an anti-Semitic riot in Brussels in 1370 in which a number of Jews were killed and banished from Brussels in connection with a host desecration at the synagogue. Christians claimed that a Jew stabbed a host and was not harmed – an event that lead to the establishment of the Cult of the Miracle.

This rare 1720 first edition was written by Petrus de Cafmeyer and published in Brussels. Illustrated with 21 fascinating engravings depicting scenes from the massacre.

Description:
1725 Jewish History Calmet JEWS + Bible Commentary Holy Land MAPS Jerusalem

Antoine Augustin Calmet was a 17th-century French Benedictine monk who is most remembered today for his commentary and notes on the Bible. This commentary was highly regarded, not just by Catholics but by Protestants as well. Calmet's commentary created new ways of biblical interpretation, new methods of exegesis, and individual prefaces to each book. Interestingly, he vehemently avoided using metaphysical and mystical interpretations of scripture.

This commentary was the foundation for many of his other works, including his 'History of Jews in the Old and New Testament'. This 1725 edition includes an introductory history of the church by Abby Fleury, along with seven impressive folding maps and plans:
·
Map of Ancient World
·
Map of "Earthly Paradise" or "The Promised Land"
·
Map of Israelite's journey
·
Solomon's Temple
·
New Plan of Old Jerusalem

1564 John Calvin Institutes of Christian Religion FAMED Geneva Bible Catechism
"We should ask God to increase our hope when it is small, awaken it when it is dormant, confirm it when it is wavering, strengthen it when it is weak, and raise it up when it is overthrown."
― John Calvin
A rare, 16th-century Latin translation of John Calvin's "Institutio Christianae relgionis", or "Institutes of the Christian Religion." It is still widely read and considered highly influential in Western world Christianity. At its core, "Institutes" was intended to provide Christians inspiration in their living, as well as being an introductory work to those new to the faith. It attacked those who opposed Calvin's teachings, most notably Roman Catholicism.
"Institutes" was immensely popular during the 16th-century and has since been held in the same respect as Augustine's "City of God," Aquinas's "Summa Theologica," Melanchthon's "Loci Communes" and other important Christian doctrines.

1583 John Calvin Bible & Commentaryon Pentateuch & Joshua Old Testament Geneva
"We should ask God to increase our hope when it is small, awaken it when it is dormant, confirm it when it is wavering, strengthen it when it is weak, and raise it up when it is overthrown."
― John Calvin
An extremely rare, 16th-century printing of John Calvin's commentary on the Pentateuch, the first five books of the Old Testament. Calvin wrote a number of biblical commentaries, each of which have become very popular references for hundreds of years. Calvin, as could be expected, focuses heavily on God's dealing with men and the covenants with his people even through their sin and weaknesses.
This edition was published in Geneva by Pierre de Saint Andre in 1583 – a huge folio – that also includes Calvin's commentary on Joshua! A remarkable work of the Old Testament commentaries of Calvin!

Description:
1603 William Camden History of Britain Ireland Norman Invasion Wm the Conqueror

"The best edition of Camden!"

A fine, early 17th-century printing of William Camden's "Anglica, Normannica, Hibernica, Cambrica, a veteribus scripta." This second edition is considered the best edition of this work (Payne & Foss) and is a work of historical texts related to the history of Britain. It includes famous battles and invasions, such as the William the Conqueror's Norman invasion of Ireland. In the late 12th-century, Gerald of Wales wrote a history of Henry II conquest of Ireland. Camden created a modern approach to the histories of England, and in this Latin text, includes specimen of Old English which would be the "Preface to Gregory's Pastoral Care, taken from Parker's Asser." (Adams, Old English Scholarship). This book was famously in Thomas Jefferson's Library (Gilreath & Wilson).
