About This Item
Beughem, Cornelius Van. Bibliographia historica, chronologica et geographica novissima, perpetuo continuanda, sive Conspectus primus catalogi librorum historicorum quotquot ab anno MDCLI per universam Europam, typis prodierunt. First Edition, Amsterdam, Janssonio-Waesbergios, 1685.
12mo (128 x 72 mm). Contemporary (Austrian or Bohemian?) sprinkled calf, spine richly gilt. Some separation at spine but holding very nicely. Initials J. D. with date 1865, with additional inscription of "voy: m. melanges Jhin and de liet pan virginal de marville f p 23 p 323 ed 1725"
Beughem's most substantial single compilation, "in which he continued his attempt at a classified universal bibliography of works published since 1650. This time Beughem reached nearly 800 pages, in which he describes the works of nearly 2,500 writers. A substantial part of the book, however, is taken up by a so-called Museum Beughemianum, which would seem to be by many years the first iconography ... with a list of portraits in marbles, coins, gems, &c., of about 6,000 eminent persons, set out alphabetically within ... (six) divisions" (Besterman).
