Aggiungi al carrelloA physiological disquisition on the biblical Song of Songs, in which the ideal form of feminine beauty is described. The author uses from the mystical love poem to weave and argue his physiological conclusions, juxtaposing women with various animals, displaying the variations and vicissitudes of facial features, and adding his o…wn verse commentary on the topic. A singular work of speculative physiognomy and biblical criticism. Although physiognomy had been rejected by eminent scientists like Leonardo di Vinci, it continued to be widely practiced and taught by creative and idiosyncratic thinkers and writers like Sir Thomas Browne and Giambattista Della Porta (who also used the physiognomy of animals in his work) in the 17th century, and remained popular through the 19th century. This 1662 work is a particularly distinctive part of the psuedoscience's corpus. This copy features the bookplate of Julia Parker Wightman, daughter of prominent New York City physician Dr. Orrin Sage Wightman. Julia Wightman was known as an antiquarian and bookbinder with an impressive collection of rare books. Following her father's death in 1965, she converted his offices in the family home into a bindery, where she created bindings and cases for some of the volumes in her collection. A member of the Hroswitha Club and Grolier Club, she bequeathed her collection to the Morgan Library and Museum upon her death in 1994. 8o: *4A-D8 [$4 signed] pp. [8] 1-60 [1], ill. First (and only) edition. 4 x 6 ¼ in. Bound in 19th century quarter red morocco by LP Noël. Gilt tooling to spine. marbled endpapers. Julia Parker Wightman bookplate. 28 small intaglio engravings throughout of female busts and animals' heads, some two to a page, with line-engraved title vignette. Very good, with some rubbing to edges of boards. Foxing throughout.

Aggiungi al carrelloFIRST EDITION. 152 x 90 mm. (6 x 3 1/2"). 4 p.l., 60 pp., [1] leaf (approbation). Pleasing 18th century marbled calf, raised bands, spine gilt in compartments with acorn tool at center, pomegranate cornerpieces, red morocco label, marbled endpapers. Woodcut initials and tailpieces, and 30 engravings on title and in text of femal…e faces and animal faces, to which some of them are compared. Dorbon 5014; Wellcome V, 322; Brunet V, 1026 ("orné de jolies gravures au trait"). âExtremities a little rubbed, small black smudge to upper board, the binding otherwise lustrous and well preserved, and A FINE COPY INTERNALLY, quite clean, fresh, and bright. This is the sole printing of an obscure but fascinating physiological treatise on pulchritude. The text is divided up into 14 sections, each of which begins with a quotation from the "Song of Songs," followed by an explanation of how the quoted "mystic" words show that Solomon indeed knew what perfect female beauty was. For example, in the first chapter, the quotation "your head is like the camel's" is used as evidence that a woman's head ought to be lofty, and juxtaposed engravings of a (wary) camel and a (despondent) woman give a graphic reinforcement to the point. The chapter, like the other 13, ends with an appropriate short poem, presumably by the author. Brunet, in an understatement, says that the title of this charming and wacky work "gives some indication of its singularity.".
