Siris. A Chain of Philosophical Reflexions and Inquiries Concerning the Virtues of Tar Water, And divers other Subjects connected together and arising one from another

Margt. Rhames, 1744. Leder band. Pp: 261. Siris (1744) passed through some six editions in six months. It is at once a treatise on the medicinal virtues of tar-water (a mixture of water and pine tar), its making and dosage, and a philosopher`s vision of a chain of being, �"œa gradual evolution or ascent�"� from the world of sense to �"œthe mind, her acts and faculties�"� and, thence, to the supernatural and God, the three in one. This edition was printed by Margt. Rhames for R. Gunne, bookseller in Capel Street. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.

JOURNAL Of The PROCEEDINGS Of The LINNEAN SOCIETY. BOTANY. Vol. III.; [Bound with] Supplement to Botany - Vol. I - Containing Musci Indiæ Orientalis; An Enumeration of the Mosses of the East Indies. By William Mitten, Esq.; [and] Proceedings of the Linnean Society of London

London: Longman, Brown, Green, Longman's & Roberts, and Williams And Norgate, 1859. 1st Edition. Period binding, black ink stain to all edges. iv, 214; [2], 171, [1 (blank)]; lxxii, [2 (blank)] pp. Couple illustrations, at least one lithograph by W[alter]. [Hood] Fitch (1817-1892). 8-3/4" x 5-1/4". A VG copy. Boards and edges are rubbed/(scuffed), some tears to the paper wrapped boards, some soiling to boards and back strip, some fraying to back strip, blue ink inscription to ffep - possible previous signature, some soiling to end papers (particularly to fore-edge), embossed library stamp to head of title page, age toning to leaves, water damage to fore-edge of leaves and boards, water damage particularly bad at tail of boards and leaves -going towards middle of leaves, binding a bit tender, some gatherings are loose or torn, but still enact, overall internally clean and bright. Walter Fitch was a botanical illustrator from Scotland. Fitch's illustration have appeared in Curtis's Botanical Magazine, most publications issued by Royal Botanical Gardens Kew, George Bentham's 'Handbook of the British Flora', James Bateman's "A Monograph of Odontoglossum" and William Hooker's "A century of Orchidaceous Plants". "Fitch was made a fellow of the Linnean Society in 1857." [wiki]. The previous owner inscription reads "Skipper Kent 1953". Skipper Kent was a restauranteur in the San Francisco Bay Area, owning Zombie Village in Oakland and Skipper Kent's in San Francisco. These "tiki" inspired restaurants were his pride and joy as he was already and avid collector of Polynesian art and artifacts. Kent was also an avid orchid collector, so we suspect this was in his library at one time, with his interest in botany. The embossed library stamp comes from the library of Herman Knoche (1870-1945). Knoche was born in San Jose, California and studied botany at Stanford University. He moved to France to further his studies at University of Montpellier; his particular interest was island vegetation.

[BERKELEY (George):]

Alciphron: or, The Minute Philosopher. In Seven Dialogues. Containing an Apology for the Christian Religion, against Those Who are Called Free-Thinkers.

Dublin: Printed for G. Risk, G. Ewing, and W. Smith, Booksellers in Dame-Street, MDCCXXXII 1732. FIRST IRISH EDITION. 2 volumes in 1. 8vo, 195 x 118 mms., pp. [x], 220; [ii], 245 [246 blank], engraved vignette on each title-page, contemporary calf; lackk label, front joint slightly cracked, but a good to very good copy. The present book, Alciphron, was the longest work written by the great Irish philosopher George Berkeley (1685-1753), preeminent proponent of the philosophy of immaterialism, who was also Bishop of Cloyne, and Fellow of Trinity College Dublin. The first edition of Alciphron was published by Tonson in London in 1732, but this first Irish edition published by Risk in Dublin the same year is far more rare, and has interest of its own: Berkeley being Irish, obviously, and the two editions, Tonson's in London and Risk's in Dublin, being in 1732 "nearly simultaneously released", according to Adam Grzelinski, an expert on the circumstances of the book's publication (see Grzelinski's "Alciphron; or the Minute Philosopher: Berkeley's Redefinition of Free-Thinking" in The Bloomsbury Companion to Berkeley, ed. by Bertil Belfrage and Richard Brook, [Bloomsbury Academic, 2016], p. 174). Readers familiar with the family background of George Berkeley will see the last name, "Wolfe", written in ink, atop the title-page, and stop in their tracks. The Wolfe family appears prominently in the Berkeley family tree. Oxford DNB records that Berkeley was "born at or near Kilkenny on 12 March 1685. His father, William Berkeley (d. in or after 1734), who later held a military commission, was a gentleman farmer descended from a Staffordshire family related to the earls of Berkeley; he owned the property of Dysart, further down the River Nore near Thomastown, where Berkeley grew up. Berkeley's mother, a great-aunt of General James Wolfe, has been tentatively identified as Elisabeth Southerne, daughter of a Dublin brewer and on her mother's side a descendant of James Ussher…" It is thus likely that the ownership inscription in this copy of the first Irish edition of Alciphron defines the present copy as a family association copy of Berkeley's longest book. But which Wolfe inscribed the book? The answer is nigh. My stock includes another book of philosophical content (if decidedly more light-hearted in temperament) titled Athenian Sport: or, Two Thousand Paradoxes Merrily Argued, To Amuse and Divert the Age: As a Paradox in Praise of a Paradox (1707), which has a variant of the Wolfe bookplate (one with the family name, "Wolfe de Forenaughts", engraved, in this case, just beneath the frame enclosing the trebled wolf-heads), and the ownership inscription, on the right-hand side at the top of the title-page, is, in this case, longer: "Phillpott: Wolfe." The "P" is unusual, being lollipop-shaped in its upper half and with a jack-boot upturn to the left in its lower half, as we see with the "P" in the inscription in the present copy of Alciphron. Keynes 16. Jessop 121b. ESTC T86362. Howe's catalogue, Franks Bequest, has three Wolfe bookplates (item nos. 32325, 32326, and 32327), but none is the one in this copy of Alciphron (1732). On the "Wolfes of Forenaughts" claiming kinship with "Major-General James Wolfe, the hero of Quebec", which, as we've seen, would also mean kinship with Bishop Berkeley, see George Wolfe, "The Wolfe Family of County Kildare" in the Journal of the Co. Kildare Archaeological Society and Surrounding Districts, Vol. 3, Dublin, 1902, pp. 361-367, most notably p. 364 and p. 367, the latter page illustrating the variant of the Wolfe bookplate, with the family name engraved.
