About this Item

Description:

[23],480,[12]pp. plus single-page map and plate. 12mo. Contemporary vellum, lacking string ties. Vellum lightly soiled. Occasional faint, old tideline. Very good. This book is often described as the first Latin edition of Pedro Gobeo de Victoria's NAUFRAGIO Y PEREGRINATIO, first published in Seville in 1610, but it is in fact a novel which uses that work as a basis. The author was a Jesuit, and the thread of this story runs through Jesuit missions in America and along the Amazon. The map, after Ortelius, depicts the western hemisphere. EUROPEAN AMERICANA 647/28. BORBA DE MORAES, p.108. SABIN 99443. MEDINA, BHA 1094. JCB (3)II:360. PALAU 102964. DE BACKER & SOMMERVOGEL 1514-1515. BELL V112. Seller Inventory # WRCAM47433

Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. First edition bound in vellum. Munich, 1647. Condition is Good. Primary condition issue is missing spine. Text block binding remains sound. Vellum boards with Yapp style fore-edges and typical vellum warp. Interior has modern stamp (R151) on interior front pastedown, ffep with pencil notation and older ink info, title page with old library stamp, prior ownership inscription dated 1699, half title has pencil note at bottom. No other interior markings or problems. Quite decent old paper remains supple. Paginates: [24], map, 480, [12] with original blanks. This is a small format book (12 mo) approximately 12.5 x 7 cm. See European Americana (EA) 647/28. EA 622/165 & 610/115 are related items. A cool old book with a 17th century map of the Americas. Please see images of the book you will receive. Feel free to inquire. Notes: Alden cites opinions that this is historical fiction based on Gobeo's shipwreck narrative of 1610. It does not read like that to me (I observe and make no claim to competence). This is a description of Central and South America complete with a large index of locations, events and authors. More notes: California is correctly drawn as a peninsula. Many maps of the era showed it as an island. See Tooley for more info on that. Seller Inventory # ABE-1628464593074
