Show moreex arabico Ebn Batutae Itinerario edita ; interpretatione et annotationibus instructa per Henricum Apetz. Ibn Batutta's description of Malabar, south-western India. Original Arabic text, edited with a Latin translation and annotations by the Jena oriental scholar and entomologist Johann Heinrich Gottfried Apetz (1794-1857), a student of L. G. Kosegarten, to whom this effort is dedicated. - Ibn Battuta's famous "Rihla" (literally, "The Journey") is considered one of the most significant Mediaeval eyewitness accounts of the Middle East. Over a period of thirty years, the Muslim Moroccan explorer Abu-‘Abd Allah Muhammad ibn Batutah (1304-77?) visited most of the known Islamic world, including North Africa, the Horn of Africa, West Africa, Southern Europe and Eastern Europe in the West, to the Middle East, South Asia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and China in the East - a distance surpassing his near-contemporary Marco Polo. He journeyed more than 75,000 miles, a figure unsurpassed by any individual explorer until the coming of the Steam Age some 450 years later, and is considered one of the greatest travellers of all time. After returning home from his travels in 1354, Ibn Battuta dictated an account of his journeys to Ibn Juzayy, a scholar whom he had previously met in Granada. The account is the only source for Ibn Battuta's adventures. For centuries his book was obscure, even within the Muslim world, but in the early 19th century extracts were published in German and English based on manuscripts discovered in the Middle East, containing abridged versions of Ibn Juzayy's Arabic text. - Slight browning and duststaining; ownership "S.

Show moreFirst edition of a miscellaneous work on Alchemy which gathers some works of different authors, being Gebri, Jābir ibn Ḥayyān, considered the father of the Arab chemistry, the author who opens the volume which includes parts of four of his works. His treatises are followed by a short one, Speculum Alchemiae, traditionally credited to Roger Bacon, on the origin and composition of metals; a work by Richardus Anglicus; and another treatise of the Arab author Khalid ibn Yazid al-Umawi. The volume ends with the Tabula Smaragdina and its comment. The Tabula Smaragdina is a concise, compact and cryptic piece reputed to contain the secret of the prima materia and its transmutation, highly regarded by European alchemists as the foundation of their art. It is attributed to Hermes Trimegistus but, virtually all literature ascribed to this name is incorrectly so attributed. Although technically it is not the name of a real person in origin, it became regarded as such from early times. This text was a popular summary of alchemical principles, wherein the secrets of the philosopher's stone were thought to have been described. The last text of the whole edition is a commentary by the medieval alchemist Hortulanus, who composed his commentary before 1325. It is the second part of a work in which Hortulanus believes alcohol or quintessence is the hidden primordial heat in all material things.
