Jena, Krebs, 1716 - 17172 volumes in 1. 4to. Marbvled wrappers. (2; 4) lvsGeorg Wolfgang Wedel (1645-1721). Seltsame deutung aus der Offenbarung Johannis und andere Prophezeiungen auf Kaiser Karl VI und die Kamphe mit den Türken als dem Antichristen. Die schrift verstand sich als guten Auspicium zur Geburt des enoch im selben Jahr verstorbenen Thronfolger Leopold. Den eigentliche Anlass gab aber wohl der 1716 vorn Prinz Eugen begonnene und 1718 siegreich geendete Türkenkrieg. Georg Wolfgang Wedel (1645 - 1721) attended between 1656-61 the famous school in Schulpforta with a scholarship from the Elector of Saxony. In 1662 he entered the University of Jena, where he studied philosophy and especially medicine. In 1667 he qualified for his medical license and in 1669 took his M.D. while practicing medicine in Gotha. His affiliation was Lutheran and published on alchemy. Wedel was an extremely productive author. In 1673 he assumed the chair of anatomy, surgery, and botany at the University of Jena. Later he assumed the chair of theoretical medicine. Wedel was Rector of the university some ten times. In 1679 he became the personal physician to the Duke of Weimar, and in 1685 to the Prince of Saxony.

Antigua and the Antiguans: a full account of the colony and its inhabitants from the time of the Caribs to the present day, interspersed with anecdotes and legends. Also an impartial view of slavery and the free labour systems; the statistics of the island, and biographical notices of the principal families.
London, Saunders and Otley, 1844.2 volumes. Original embossed cloth (back vol. II soiled), spines gilt. XIV,345, + Erratum slip); VIII,355 pp.First edition. - . The writer was an English lady, for many years resident in the colony both before and after emancipation. The historical part is written in annalistic form, by governors, and is interspersed with local legends. Colonial records were consulted to some extent for the latter period. Its chief value is as a mirror of contemporary Caribbean society and for this, it is invaluable. An infinite variety of subjects is handied in a sprightly, well-informed, and sympathetic manner. Unsurpassed for the general state of Antigua after the close of the slave régime. Genealogies of the topping families will be found in the appendix (Ragatz p.224). - One of the best early accounts of Antigua. - Scarce entertaining work.Sabin 1693; The Beinecke Lesser Antilles Collection 870; Theakstone p.99.
