onder het beleydt van den commandeur Joris van Spilbergen, zijn eerste reyse, uytghevaren in den jare 1601, 1602, 1603 en 1604. Amsterdam : Gillis Joosten Saeghman, (c.1648). Small quarto, vellum-backed papered boards; pp. 56; title with woodcut vignette of Spilbergen's ships, verso of title with large allegorical woodcut, and a… further 4 woodcuts and 2 engravings; a fine copy. A firsthand account of Spilbergen's first voyage to the East Indies in 1601-04. Having sailed down the west coast of Africa, the expedition headed into the Indian Ocean andreached Ceylon at the end of May, 1602, where Spilbergen remained for several months before proceeding to Sumatra. On the way, with help from English in the area, he captured a Portuguese treasure ship. According to Maggs (Catalogue 747, 1945), 'This account of Spilbergen's first voyage is believed to have been written by a Protestant minister who served as almoner to the fleet. It was published with the Admiral's consent and, owing to its anti-Catholic trend, was not translated into French for over a hundred years. The special value of the narrative lies in its detailed account of the visit to Ceylon and of the friendly reception given Spilbergen by the King of Candy, describing the Court, history of the reigning family, the manners and customs of the people, etc.' Tiele, 145.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. First. SPILBERGEN'S VOC CIRCUMNAVIGATION, BOUND WITH THE ARMS OF CHARLES I AS PRINCE OF WALES. First edition in Latin. Leiden: Nicolaes van Geelkercken for Jodocus Hondius, 1619. Oblong quarto (7" x 9 11/16", 179mm x 247mm). [Full collation available.] With 25 engravings (plus an allegorical eng…raving on the title-page): 6 folding maps, 1 folding view and 18 views. Bound in contemporary (pre-1625) panelled vellum with ties (renewed). Gilt supralibros of King Charles I as Prince of Wales within two double gilt fillet borders. Inner corner-ornaments of hearts set within scrollwork, outer corner-ornaments of thistle. On the spine, six panels separated by triple gilt fillets. Top and bottom edges of the text-block gilt (traces of gilding to the fore). Small loss at the tail. Ties and end-papers renewed. Faint signs of damp along the upper edge to quire D, with mild tanning and a very little worming, just touching a few letters. Repaired worming to the central fold of the world map, and general repairs to the folds of other maps and views. Quires A and Y reinserted, with a split at X3,4. Joris van Spilbergen (1568-1620) was in the first generation of explorers for the Dutch East India Company (Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie or VOC), beginning in fact in the company of one of its founders, Balthazar de Moucheron. After a successful voyage to the East Indies (particularly Kandy, modern Sri Lanka) in 1604, he was sent in August of 1614 by the newly-formed VOC to return via Brazil and the Straits of Magellan. Fighting along the way with the Spanish, particularly up the west coast of South America and up to Acapulco in Mexico, Spilbergen came to the East Indies in early 1616. In October of 1616 he encountered the expedition of Jacob Le Maire (son of Isaac, once a director of the VOC but driven out), who had sailed via the strait that would be named for him as part of the rival Australische Compagnie. Le Maire's ships and booty were seized and sent along with Spilbergen's fleet, returning to the Netherlands in July of 1617. The present work, likely edited by Nicolaes van Geelkercken and doubtless illustrated by him, combines the accounts of rivals Spilbergen and Le Maire. The engravings, including the particularly celebrated world map showing the routes of Spilbergen (and Le Maire, before being subsumed), are unusually well-integrated with the text, with keys specifying aspects of the images. Beside the valuable records of individual harbors and coastlines, the work is profoundly entertaining, with its tales of battles by day and night against the Spanish, coastal raids and other feats of swashbuckling. Books bound with the arms of a sovereign -- or, as here, a future sovereign -- always raise the question of ownership: was this owned by Charles I (r. 1625-1649) as Prince of Wales, presented by him to someone else, or simply bound by a staunch royalist? The stamp used (his stamp no. 04 in the British Armorial Bindings database) excludes the last; its use on an example of Rosa Hispani-Anglica, which was dedicated to him as Prince of Wales, now in the British Library (C.46.f.1.), suggests that he may have used it personally. In the year of his accession to the throne, Charles I concluded three military agreements with the Netherlands: two for naval warfare (the second explicitly against the Spanish), one against the Austrian Hapsburgs. Thus the present volume may well have been to hand as he considered the consequences of those alliances. At the very least it will have amused the prince.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. First edition of Spilbergen's circumnavigation with changed text on the title page. This is the fifth circumnavigation ever after Magellan; Drake; Cavendish and van Noord, the second by the Dutch. The voyage took place between 1614 and 1618. Spilbergen was an accomplished admiral who had sailed…for the VOC to the Indies before. He was sent again to discover new territories, chart the Magellan's Straits and challenge the Spanish dominion in South America and the Philippines where possible. He landed in Brazil, mapped Magellan's Strait, fought and burned Spanish settlements in Chile, Peru and Mexico and sailed to the Philippines. Once in Batavia he picked up le Maire and the rest of his crew who had been arrested in Batavia for breaching VOC laws by sailing West to the Indies without VOC consent. Le Maire denied this as he did not sail through Magellan's Straits (as specified in the VOC laws) but around Cape Horn!! The book includes the voyage of Schouten and le Maire, Navigationes Australes, who discovered le Maire's Street and Cape Horn. That was in 1616. Both le Maire and Schouten, who split up during the voyage, claimed the discovery and both wrote their own journal. Schoutens' journal was published first in 1618 by Blaeu in Amsterdam. Le Maire's journal- who died during the voyage back home- was published for the first time in 1622. The Australische navigatieen in our book is Schouten's abbreviated journal. In the maps however, le Maire is given credit for the discoveries. The book includes a world map with an inset showing the islands North of New Guinee, a general map of the Indonesian archipelago and detailed maps of Magellan's Straits and the Manilla channel. There are further views of Manilla; Sao Vicente; Mocha, Callao, Acapulco, and others. In the bibliographical literature there has been discussion about the differences between the various versions and translations of Spilbergen's journal. With Villiers in his review of both different editions and languages, we agree that the original text and description of the 25 prints is the Dutch version published in 1619 in Leiden by Geelkercken.

Lugduni Batavorum [i.e. Leiden] : Jodocus Hondius for Nicolaus van Geelkercken, 1619. Small oblong quarto (190 x 250 mm), contemporary limp vellum with early manuscript title and collection number to spine; title with large engraved vignette (early ownership signature to upper margin); pp. [4 blank], 175, [5 blank]; with a foldi…ng engraved world map and a further 24 engraved maps, plans and views (including 2 folding maps, 2 double-page maps, one folding view and one double-page view); one preliminary leaf chipped at fore-edge, a few of the plates browned, otherwise sound and clean throughout, a good example; housed in a custom clamshell box of half morocco over marbled papered boards and cloth, spine lettered and decorated in gilt. One of the most significant illustrated travel books of the early 1600s. Spilbergen and Le Maire's "The East and West IndianMirror", which combines two circumnavigation narratives, was first published in Leiden in 1619 in simultaneous Dutch and Latin editions. A second issue of each edition was printed in the same year.This is the first Latin edition, second issue (the same as the first issue in every respect but with the name of Hondius added to the imprint on the title). All of the 1619 editions, both Dutch and Latin, were issued with the same plates. In 1614 Joris van Spilbergen's Dutch East India Company flotilla, comprised of six ships, set out for the Moluccas with the intention of reaching the East Indies via the Strait of Magellan and crossing the Pacific from east to west. The expedition sailed first to Brazil, then through the Strait of Magellan and northwards along the coasts of Chile and Peru, as far as California. Its vessels were armed and carried out attacks on Spanish settlements and shipping en route. Spilbergen then sailed for the Philippines, where he arrived at the start of February 1616 and carried out attacks on Manila-bound shipping for almost a month. The section of the account that deals with the Philippines occupies pp. 84-93 and is illustrated with a superb double-page map of the Manila Strait and a full-page woodcut of ships outside the port of Manila. Both of these plates have a key with points of interest and explanations given in the main text. Spilbergen's ships then sailed on by way of Ternate to Batavia.There he failed to locate a Spanish fleet rumoured to be planning attacks against Dutch interests in the Moluccas. Instead, he encountered Le Maire and Schouten, who had recently arrived from their Pacific crossing on behalf of the Compagnie Australe only to be arrested for breaching the VOC monopoly on the Strait of Magellan passage. Spilbergen was responsible for conducting Le Maire, Schouten and their men back to the Netherlands (although Le Maire died on the voyage). 'The Mirror is an extremely important book for the history of Dutch navigation' (Borba de Moraes). Howgego, S159; Landwehr, VOC, 361; Sabin, 89450; Alden & Landis, 619/133; Borba de Moraes, II:276.

First Edition. Oblong 4to, pp.175, [1 (blank)], including blank leaf P4; with 2 folding maps and 23 plates (5 folding), large engraved vignette to title; some staining to title, strengthened at inner margin to recto and verso, some creasing to first folding map, both maps with repairs to verso, occasional marks, some dampstainin…g to upper margins at end; overall good in nineteenth-century half sheep over marbled boards, gilt lettering-piece to spine; both boards detached (the upper board with endpapers and title-page attached), some wear to spine and corners; 'Library Board of Trade' stamp to title, a few recent notes to front pastedown.First Latin edition of one of the classic Dutch illustrated voyages, identical in format and illustration to the same publisher's Dutch-language edition of the same year. 'All first editions in oblong format are rare and much sought after' (Borba de Moraes, p.828). The maps include the Straits of Magellan, Le Maire's route (showing the strait he discovered round the east of Tierra del Fuego and which is named after him), and the East Indies. The world map shows the routes of both Spilbergen and Le Maire and, in a rectangular panel at the bottom, Le Maire's discoveries along the northern coast of New Guinea (Shirley 304). Among the plates are portrayals of battle-scenes, various ports on the Pacific coast of Spanish America as far north as Acapulco, Manila Bay, and various harbours and islands in the western Pacific and Indonesia.The Speculum orientalis occidentalisque Indiae the 'East and West Indian mirror' narrates two highly important Dutch expeditions to the East Indies via South America and across the Pacific. The first, a powerful East India Company (VOC) fleet under the command of Spilbergen, was essentially predatory, raiding Spanish shipping and settlements; it also aimed to assert the VOC's exclusive passage to the Pacific through the Strait of Magellan, countering challenges by its Dutch rivals. After clearing the Strait, Spilbergen's fleet worked its way up the South American coast, sacking Spanish settlements and attacking Spanish shipping, until it reached Acapulco. It then crossed the Pacific to the Philippines and Ternate, where it hoped to intercept the Spanish force rumoured to be about to descend on the Dutch outposts in the Moluccas. Finally, Spilbergen headed for Batavia, where he encountered Jacob Le Maire and Willem Corneliszoon Schouten, whose expedition is the other voyage recounted in this volume. Their papers, ship (the Eendracht) and crew were immediately seized by the VOC, which saw this independent venture as a serious infringement of its monopoly, and Le Maire and Schouten were taken back to the Netherlands with Spilbergen. Spilbergen's expedition was not intended to be one of 'discovery', but it nevertheless stands out as being exceptionally well-managed, the fifth circumnavigation of the globe, and 'the first to sail half-way round the world with a whole fleet well in hand' (SpateII, p.21).Jacob Le Maire and Schouten had been sent by the Australische Compagnie, formed by Isaac Le Maire (Jacob's father), to discover a new passage to the Pacific south of the Strait of Magellan, thereby circumventing the VOC's exclusive rights, and to trade in any lands they discovered in the South Pacific hopes of finding the southern continent promised in Quiros's memorials were high. They were successful in their first objective, sailing to the Le Maire Strait, which separates Tierra del Fuego from Staten Island, and into the Pacific round Cape Horn (named after Hoorn, their home base), but the southern continent proved elusive. Although commercially motivated, their expedition may be considered as 'the one genuine voyage of Oceanic exploration between Quiros and Tasman' (ibid., p.23). Le Maire died at sea on the way home with Spilbergen, but after several years' litigation his father successfully sued the VOC for the return of his son's journal and was awarded damages.STCN 06262928X; US.

[4, including letterpress title], 172 pages. Complete. AEG. Housed in early-20th-century full crushed blue morocco nesting case by Sangorski & Sutcliffe. Circular blindstamp of Antonio Santamaria on the last of the front blanks. A Handsome Example of the First and Only French Edition of one of the Great Illustrated Works of 17th-Century World Exploration. "This French edition is much sought after. The text of Le Maire's journal is much more complete than that in the Latin edition of 1619" (Borba de Moraes). This important work covers the circumnavigations of Joris van Spilbergen from 1614 to 1618, and, in the latter half of the book, those of Jacob Le Maire and Willem Coneliszoon Schouten from 1615 to 1617. It is profusely illustrated with engraved plates, many of which are cartographic or generally topographical, as well as many of ethnographic and natural historical interest. Le Maire and Schouten were aboard the vessel Eendracht when it passed through the strait between Tierra del Fuego and Isla de los Estados, establishing that Tierra del Fuego was not connected to the theorized Great Southern Continent (now known as Antarctica). Their voyage westward into the Pacific was a revelation for the Dutch, as it proved that accessing the Spice Islands from the "southwest" route was practicable. While other navigators had successfully sailed into the Pacific many times before, their voyage along a new route carried a different import, as it directly threatened the VOC's monopoly on the East Indies trade. Upon their appearance in Batavia, the center of the Dutch East Indies, they were arrested and the Eendracht was seized. Eventually, they were released and resumed their journey with Joris van Spilbergen who was circumnavigating the globe using the traditional Strait of Magellan. Le Maire sailed aboard Spilbergen's ship Amsterdam but died before reaching home. Spilbergen transcribed Le Maire's account of the first part of the voyage from the former's deathbed, and he included it in the present work. The confiscation of the Eendracht was challenged by Jacob Le Maire's father Isaac, who was eventually successful in his suit in 1622. Shirley (304) says of the world map at the front of the book: This world map, considerably larger than that in Schouten's narrative, depicts the separate outwards voyages of Joris and Jacob Le Maire and the return route of Spilbergen from the East Indies during which the young Le Maire's death occurred. Rather curiously, Spilbergen's return voyage is shown terminating in England rather than in the Netherlands. A rectangular panel at the bottom describes in detail Le Maire's discoveries along the northern coast of New Guinea. Spilbergen's map is on an oval projection which exaggerates the eastwest (and even southerly) line of the Pacific coast of North America. Near Hudson's Bay is the phrase in English (taken from the Hondius world map of 1617) 'The bay wher Hitson did winter'. The publisher of the 1619 edition was Nicolaes van Geelkercken who may ha.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Leyden, N. van Geelkercken, 1619. 4to oblong (233 x 177 mm) ; 275 pp. and 25 folding engraved plates and maps. First Latin edition. A fine copy in contemporary vellum. Admiral Joris van Spilbergen, in command of a small flotilla of six Dutch East India Company ships, sailed for the…Moluccas via the Straits of Magellan in 1614, managing to show that it was possible to reach Java from the east via Cape Horn. THIS WAS THE FIRST ATTEMPTED CIRCUMNAVIGATION OF THE GLOBE TO BE CARRIED OUT WITH THE OFFICIAL SUPPORT OF THE DUTCH GOVERNMENT. This work is an account of his five-year voyage, and the engravings consist of charts, views of ports, islands and native peoples, and sea battles. The first edition in Dutch was published the same year, also in Leiden by Nicolaus van Geelkercken. Spilbergen's six ships left Texel in August 1614 and reached Brazil that December. Mutinies aboard two of the ships ensued and the four remaining ships passed through the Straits of Magellan. The crews were awed by the massive mountain ranges in Patagonia before making a rapid voyage north to Santa Maria and Valparaiso. They sailed then to Mexico where they captured and occupied Acapulco for a week. In February 1616 Spilbergen arrived in the Philippines where he raided Manila-bound shipping for nearly a month, and then proceeded to Java. At Batavia, in Java he transferred to the ship Amsterdam for the voyage home by way of the Cape of Good Hope, and took with him Willem Cornelis Schouten, Jacob Le Maire and some of the crew of the confiscated vessel Eendracht. Le Maire died on the Indian Ocean, but the remaining crew arrived back in Holland in July 1617. This was the most successful Dutch circumnavigation to date, with little loss of life and considerable profit. The splendid series of engraved plates includes the very important map of Le Maire's and Schouten's route across the Pacific as well as maps of the Strait of Magellan and Manila, the Moluccas, battle-scenes, and various ports on the Pacific coast of Spanish America as far north as Acapulco. Jacob Le Maire's voyage was an important prelude to Tasman's voyage of 1642/3 who sailed, on the last lap of his voyage, partly through seas first crossed by Le Maire. Le Maire's expedition opened up an entirely new route across the southern Pacific, quite different from those that Magellan, Drake and others had explored. From the journals, it is clear how much de Quiros had influenced Le Maire who confidently believed in the existence of a southern continent. If Le Maire's train of thought had not been disturbed by the sober considerations of Schouten, who was more of a practical-minded sailor than he was an explorer, and if the westerly course had been kept, the Dutch would have had the chance of discovering the important east coast of Australia 150 years before James Cook » (Schilder).
