Regulating Privateering activities in Spain: the most significant treatise on the subject written in Spain abreu y bertodano, felix lose. Tratado juridico-politico sobre Pressas de Mar y calidades que deben concurrir para hacerse legitimamente el Corso. N.d. [1746]. N.p. [Seville]. In 4to (195 mm x 140 mm). 1 [blank] + 27 ff. + 335 + 1 [blank]. Contemporary calf, very discrete, only simple tooling, mostly faded, head and foot worn but overall very good. An excellent copy, in its original condition, with full mar- gins and very clean paper. First edition —one of three editions in the same year, all are rare. Abreu s learned work is one of the most significant treatises on priva- teering ever made in Spain; its scope encompasses the entirety of the subject, compiling the available regulation at the time and including his own views on the subject. Virtually all the decrees, acts, and ordi- nances on piracy published in Spain are included in Abreu s work. There were three editions published in 1746, for which no priority is known: the printing locations were Madrid, Cadiz and this one, pre- sumably Seville. Palau attributes this to the printer A. de Barreda of Seville. “This valuable work, which is much less known in this coun- try than it deserves to be was translated into French” (McCulloch p. 127). There is little to be found on the life of Abreu (1722-1766), except that he was Ambassador to France in the mid 18th century and that he was also author of other treatises on navigation and sea-affairs. We are only able to trace one copy having sold at auction, in 2006, in the last 50 years. palau, 1009.

One of the last great representatives of the Jesuit Order in China; handsomely illustrated manuscript, of a seminal history of China amiot, joseph-marie.

Striking manuscript on the history of China, by the hand of Jesuit active during the second half of the 18th century, and one of the peri- od s greatest sinologists; appealingly illustrated and in its entirely gen- uine condition. Amiot (1718-1793) was a French Jesuit Priest, missionary, sinologist, historian and astronomer; after his ordination as a member of Society he asked to be sent to China, sailing towards Macao in 1749, and arriv- ing in 1750. A year later, 1751, Amiot arrived at Peking, where he stayed hs rare books & maps []7 Cat SHS 02_layout 1 3/5/15 2:20 PM Page 8 until his death. In China he gained the favour of the imperial Qianlong court —often employing himself as translator of Western languages. His time could not have been worst, notably for the forbid- ding of the Jesuit Order in 1764 and the revolution of 1789; the Chinese political climate and openness towards European influence had changed dramatically, long-gone were the days of Mateo Ricci and Ferdinand Verbiest. The persecution and martyrdom of Priests was becoming more frequent as the banning of the Christian faith was about to happen. These factors rendered his efforts of establishing the Catholic faith rather fruitless. However, Amiot s passion for the cus- toms, history, languages, and music of the country, made him carry on, becoming a scholar, well versed in Chinese overall culture -translating Sun Tsu s Art of War and composing a Manchu-French grammar and dictionary. In his iconography, he is often portrayed with a beard and hat, resembling a Chinese scholar. The seminal work “Memoires con- cernant l’histoire, les sciences, les arts, les moeurs, les usages, etc. des Chinois: par les Missionaires de Pekin” (1766-91), is often attributed to him, although not its only author; his attribution as compiler points out to his vast knowledge of the country. Amiot’s work is to be regard- ed amongst the most significant contributions to the Western knowl- edge of Chinese culture and thinking. “While in China, he helped ver- ify certain geographical locations, thereby making a major contribu- tion to the perfection of the Jesuits’ project of mapping the empire.” (Encyclopaedia Britannica). At the end, the manuscript is dated and given authorship “fini à Peking l’an 1770 par Amiot”. The work is divided into three parts, each dealing with different aspects of Chinese history: first part “contenant les tems Mythologiques ou fabuleux depuis Pan-Kou jusqu’à Fou-Hi”, second part “contenant les tems douteux ou incertains depuis Fou-Hi fonda- teur de la Monarchie; jusqu’à Hoang-Ly qui en est proprement le lég- islateur”, and the third part “contenant tous les tems historiques ou certains depuis la 61e année du regne de Hoang-Ly, jusqu’à la 35e []8 fine books, travel & exploration Cat SHS 02_layout 1 3/5/15 2:20 PM Page 9 année du regne de Kien-Long, c’est à dire, depuis l’an 2637 avant jes.

There were several British interests in the area, and an assorted number of Britons established in Spanish America since the beginning of the struggle for Independence. Amongst them, merchants was perhaps the most important and influential group, pressing on their government for protection to their trade. As soon as independence reached the western coast of America, a new space was created for British presence. First Valparaiso and afterwards Callao, British merchants were soon firmly established in that part of South America. As had happened in the Atlantic coast, their claims for protection were attended by the British government through the Pacific Squadron, under the flag of the Commander-in-Chief of the South American Station, until 1837, when it was raised to a separate Station.

Los hechos de Mayo no hicieron más que cristalizar un movimiento liberador que venía buscando, desde 1806, mayor participación política y económica de los criollos. Así, el 22 de mayo de 1810, luego de que llegara la noticia de la caída de la corona española en manos de franceses, los criollos convocaron a un Cabildo Abierto que tuvo que ser aceptado por el Virrey Cisneros, representante de España en el país. Luego de 4 días de debates y revueltas, se tomó la decisión de conformar una Junta criolla que asumiera el Gobierno de la Nación hasta tanto la Corona Española fuese liberada de la dominación francesa. Así, el gobierno popular quedó formado por intelectuales y militares criollos que venían desde hacía años luchando por la revolución independentista: Cornelio Saavedra, Juan José Castelli, Manuel Belgrano, Miguel de Azcuénaga, Manuel Alberti, Domingo Matheu, Juan Larrea, Juan José Paso y Mariano Moreno. A partir de este hecho, la lucha por la independencia fue un camino inevitable que desembocó en el Congreso de Tucumán del 9 de julio de 1816.

Dedicado al comercio, consiguió labrarse una posición holgada, mereciendo la consideración social por la rectitud de sus procederes y la cultura de su trato. En 1799 fue elegido regidor del Cabildo y cuándo después de la Reconquista, á fines de 1806, se preparaba la resistencia de esta ciudad de una probable segunda invasión inglesa, en la reunión que hubo para formar un cuerpo de “voluntarios”, se le nombró jefe del regimiento que se llamó de Patricios, por que se compuso de americanos El mismo ha dicho que esta designación le sorprendió y que fué origen de su carrera militar, la que abrazó sólo para contribuir á salvar la patria del peligro en que se hallaba.

  • Jewish Pirates
    Jewish Pirates by Long John Silverman The Wikipedia page on piracy gives you a lot of clues, if you know what to look for. One of the biggest clues are these two sentences, conspicuously stuck right next to each other: The earliest documented instances of piracy are the exploits of the Sea Peoples who threatened the ships sailing in the Aegean and Mediterranean waters in the 14th century BC. In classical antiquity, the Phoenicians, Illyrians and Tyrrhenians were known as pirates. Wikipedia is all but admitting what our historians do gymnastics to avoid admitting: Sea Peoples = Phoenicians. Just as we suspected. We can ignore “Illyrians” and “Tyrrhenians,” which are just poorly devised synonyms for Phoenicians. Wiki tells us Tyrrhenian is simply what the Greeks called a non-Greek person, but then it states that Lydia was “the original home of the Tyrrhenians,” which belies the fact that they were known by the Greeks as a specific people from a specific place, not just any old non-Greek person. Wiki then cleverly tells us “Spard” or “Sard” was a name “closely connected” to the name Tyrrhenian, since the Tyrrhenian city of Lydia was called Sardis by the Greeks. (By the way, coins were first invented in Lydia – so they were some of the earliest banksters). But that itself is misleading, since the Lydians also called themselves Śfard. Nowhere is the obvious suggested – that Spard/Śfard looks a lot like Sephardi, as in Sephardi Jews. These refer to Jews from the Iberian Peninsula (Spain and Portugal), the word coming from Sepharad, a place mentioned in the book of Obadiah whose location is lost to history.

Expondrá los principios de derecho publico, que arman á los Pueblos de un poder legitimo, para asegurarse contra los riesgos y peligros, que ame- nazan las circunstancias del dia: Hará una relacion exacta de la moderación y or- den, con que en Buenos Ayres se ha procedido; con notorias ventajas del estado presente, al que presentaba el Pais en el antiguo govierno.

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers in Bessemer
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.
