Second edition. - Second and third part of Wagner's "Delineatio provinciarum Pannoniae et Imperii Turcici", a topographical and historical work devised under the impression of the Turkish retreat from Vienna and Northen Hungary, describing the geography and politics of the Balkans and the Ottoman Empire. Contains views of Cairo, Aden, Damascus, Sissek, Nauplia, Kotor, etc. The third part is compiled from other contemporary works and treats Persia, India, and Indochina (with illustrations and interesting maps). The 12-page appendix ("Fortsetzung der Ungar- und Türckischen Chronik") is bound after the preface. - The first two parts of the work are uncommon, and the third is of great rarity; no complete copy containing of all three parts is recorded at German or international auctions since 1950 (cf. Sotheby's, Nov 13, 2008, lot 125 [all three parts, but incomplete]: 20,000 GBP). - Rather brownstained throughout due to paper; several restored tears. T. p. and several engravings of pt. 2 have remargined edge defects; wants plate 23. Binding somewhat rubbed, but the appealing blind-tooled covers are well preserved.

Ahmad b. Abi Bakr al-Bannaʼ al-Shami al-Muqadassi is one of the most prominent representatives of Arabic geography in the second half of the 10th century CE. Building on the tradition of the "atlas of Islam" of which al-Istakhri and Ibn Hawqal were also representatives, al-Muqadassi was the first to systematize the subject into a proper science of geography of Islam for the benefit of both merchants and the cultivated man. Al-Muqadass's Ahsan al-taqasim fi maʻrifat al-aqalim ("the best division for the knowledge of the provinces") was the first work of its kind to be accepted as a form of literature. The treatment of each "province" (iqlim) begins with the division of its districts and towns, followed by their description. Then a general chapter of the province tends to discuss the following aspects: climate, products and specialties, waters, mines, mountains, holy places, money, taxes, weights and measures, customs, marvels, calendar, political power, factions, schools and Qurʼanic readings, and routes. by al-Muqadassi = Main Heritage Compact General G93 .M94 2014 Reference Item-ID: i22369260 BIB-ID: 1886526 In Arabic.

Extracted from map of Asia in 1567 edition of Ortelius previous map, but this map with more detail based on Ortelius own map of Asia, which was in turn derived from Giacomo Gastaldis Il Disegno della Seconda Parte dellAsia (1561), for the Arabian detail. A description of the Ormus region is given in a blank space in Persia. Considered to be far superior to all previous maps of Asia, as it was informed by the published travels of Marco Polo, which appeared in Ramusios Navigationi et Viaggi (1550-59). Ortelius map features the Arabian Peninsula prominently and shows lands surrounding the eastern Mediterranean, with Italy in the northwest, southward to the east coast of Africa. The coastlines are fairly accurate, but the interiors are less defined and many of the rivers, lakes and mountain ranges bear mythological names from antiquity. The seas are richly embellished with sailing ships, with a great monster in the Black Sea.
