"Handlung nach der jäbonesischen (japanischen) Kirchengeschichte" 🧐
Maybe a good opportunity to drop this ... 🤓 (from the Compendia in Japanese @ HAB, Cod. Guelf. 7.5 Aug. 4°, fol. 400v) (The visible portion of text is from the next section, however, and thus not immediately related to solar eclipses.)
How many Meiji period books in Japanese but with a parallel title in Latin are you aware of? "Res c[=g]estae Japoniensium quae ad externas nationes attinent." < 渡辺修二郎 1893 世界ニ於ケル日本人 @ dl.ndl.go.jp/pid/992281/1/1
Daddy, please let me ... study oriental languages! 🤓 "dono 🎁 dedit mihi 👨👦 Pater meus anno 1683" < Linguarum orientalium [...] alphabeta = BnF, Hébreu 147 @ gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/b...
"Such a formidable word as Staatsschuldenverwaltungshauptkassenoberrechnungskommissar can be most faithfully rendered by Kokusai-Seiri-Kyoku-Kaikei-kwancho [国債整理局会計官長]." 🥴 < Nitobé 1927 Japanese Traits and Foreign Influences @ archive.org/details/japa...
Also works with other countries, such as Finland: 芬蘭(フィンランド) (pic from dl.ndl.go.jp/pid/761726/1...). ^^ But in the end these are typically Sinitic renderings taken over en bloc and supplied with kana versions with a separate path of borrowing.
Definitely need more title pages like this. 😼 < dl.ndl.go.jp/pid/14950209...
和蘭(オルランド) Orurando -- not Orlando but (H)olland. 🤔 < 諸蛮字韻考 @ dl.ndl.go.jp/pid/14950316...
Maybe this seal reading 好古斎 is unrelated to yours, but at least 斎 is much easier to make sense of here. ;) < dl.ndl.go.jp/pid/2539895/...
所(ル) 謂(イハユ) 🤔 < 古義神代考 @ kokusho.nijl.ac.jp/biblio/10019...
Choose your fighter! (八分's face is just hilarious. 😆) (< 1884/85 かなのくわい大戦争 @ dl.ndl.go.jp/pid/861978)
Saw something that reminded me of this 'Chinese proverb' quoted in Klaproth 1812: 還沒有會跁就學使得麼 "Kann der wohl gehen lernen, der noch nicht einmal kriechen kann?" (< books.google.de/books?id=5o9...) Still wondering where Klaproth got this from. Or did he make this up by himself? Hm. 🤔
Happened across this "M"-based logogram for {Maria, Marien-} in the 1988-1994 Marienlexikon (for which see: marienlexikon.de/marienlexiko...) today and I like it a lot. Is anybody aware of any other such cases in (more or less) recent publications?
Had long been wondering what this stamp on the title page of the Kindai University copy of _De missione legatorum Iaponensium ad Romanam curiam ... dialogus_ (Macao 1590) says: adeac.jp/clib-kindai/... It's "EX BIBLIOTHECA | VIENNENSI", from the Viennese library of the counts of Harrach. 💡
Etwas off topic, aber ich bin immer wieder leicht irritiert, wenn ich die digitalen Sammlungen der HU anschaue, insbesondere die Gelehrtenbibliotheken darin: Genau 1 der 2187 Digitalisate in dieser Kategorie hat mit WvH zu tun. Wofür steht eigtl. noch einmal das H in "HU", ich komme nicht drauf. 🤡
Hebrew-styled Roman script in the ex libris of Moritz Chamizer (1847-1917): "EX LIBRIS : M : CHAMIZER" < books.google.co.jp/books?id=Dg7...
Was ein Gierschlund. (Über die Speicherkapazität der SSD kann ich mich dann aber echt nicht beklagen. 🤡)
Aber weise Leute glauben nicht jedem Schwätzer; denn sie wissen, daß die menschliche Schwachheit mehr zum Bösen geneigt ist und leichtlich in Worten strauchelt. (books.google.de/books?id=N7C...) 2/

"Languages are natural products. Alphabets are artificial products. Languages are made by man; alphabets by men." (Hulbert 1892 in The Korean Repository 1.1)
Hadn't seen this one before: 🤓 元約/漢印//J.T.U The seal of John Thomas Underwood (1919-1994) -- son of Horace Horton Underwood, son of Horace Grant Underwood.
The beginning of Livre V reads more or less the same as Joseph Sauveur's Géométrie pratique in its rev. ed. of 1753 @ books.google.de/books?id=R4g... (the other chapter titles seem to agree with your ms. as well), There's also this plate @ books.google.de/books?id=R4g..., but with that tower. 🤔
Here's the explanation: "In China, major criminals are executed immediately after their sentencing. Ordinary criminals are held in custody until the annual autumn execution, which takes place on a fixed day during that season." So, Weston and Langlès were maybe just "ordinary criminals" ... 3/
