2 parts in 1 volume. Second, enlarged edition of a scarce alchemical work, supposedly copied from the manuscript from which Nicolas Flamel (1340-1418) learned the art of alchemy. The beautifully illustrated work discusses the basics of alchemy and the creation of the philosopher's stone. It also contains 156 rules and canons relating to the philosopher's stone, which are exclusive to the second edition. The work rarely appears on the market: we have been able to find only four other copies in sales records of the past hundred years, the last complete copy being offered in 1998.In the preface, the editor Julius Gervasius von Schwarzburg (dates unknown) states that the present work was transcribed from a highly sought-after manuscript known as The Book of Abraham the Jew, which was allegedly owned by Flamel. This manuscript was said to be an important source of alchemical knowledge, as Abraham the Jew, or Abraham Eleazar, had supposedly copied its text and illustrations directly from the copper tables of Tubal-Cain, the first blacksmith mentioned in the Bible. However, the manuscript has never been found, and the present work is now generally thought to have been written by Gervasius himself. Both the first (1735) and second editions are relatively scarce, especially in complete copies. The alchemical plates are particularly attractive and are therefore often removed and sold separately. The present copy, however, contains all the illustrations.The leather is scratched on the back, with a few green stains. The work is somewhat browned throughout, with annotations in the margins of some of the leaves, lacking the final blank leaf. Otherwise in very good condition.l Brüning 4844; Caillet I, 31 (part 1) and 32 (part 2); Duveen, p. 1; Ferguson I, pp. 2-3; VD18 10213538 (part 1); VD18 1053881X (part 2); WorldCat 493643101, 5043078, 311551310, 1046410976.

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. BREATHTAKING ALCHEMICAL WOODCUTS IN SOUGHT AFTER TREATISE. Claus Priesner (Ambix Vol. 63, No. 1 February 2016, pp 1-27) attributes this work to the probably pseudonymous Julius Gervasius who connects the work to Nicolas Flamel. Supposedly the Werckh manuscript was written by a Rabbi Abraham Eleazar while the Donum Dei manuscript is attributed to a Rabbi Samuel Baruch, who is supposed to have received his alchemical knowledge from Tubal-Cain, said to be the grandson of Adam. BOOK DETAILS AND CONDITION: First Edition (16.5 X 9.5 cm). ½ leather over boards (very considerable wear including losses to leather on spine): frontispiece, (30) 122 (14) pp; (2) 87 (25) (1); In the first part (Werckh) there are 6 (of 7) allegorical plates and numerous in-text woodcuts (one full-page on p 49) that are both allegorical and depict apparatus; In the second part (Donum Dei) there 8 allegorical plates, the first 7 each divided into 2 figures (1-14) and the final plate is figure15. The frontispiece and the title pages are dusty, but the remainder of the book internally is VG-. Missing plate in the Werckh is number 7 and is likely to have been omitted rather than removed. In this copy Figure 7 provided loose in facsimile on antiquarian paper. Gerhard Gruber Catalogue 130 (Jan. 2007) has this edition lacking 2 plates. PROVENANCE: From the Arthur C. Greenberg History of Chemistry Library. Bookplate of Women s College of Frederick Maryland inside from board, light library stamp on first page of text, and small library pocket envelope inside rear board.
