This so called Silberling edition, known for the high quality of the gravures and printing, was preceeded by a (first) edition of 1647, Rerum per Octennium in Brasilia, which appeared in two different versions: the "grand Barlaeus" (folio size, published by Blaeu), and the smaller sized "petit Barlaeus". Imporant contemporary account of the Dutch colonial empire in Brazil, inspired by the leadership of John Maurice of Nassau (Johan Maurits) at Recife. Piso arrived in Brazil early in 1638 and may have been on the same ship with other scientists, namely the astronomer, Georg Markgraf (1610-1644). Both men accompanied the Count on his military campaigns against the Portuguese in Brazil and were part of his inner circle until he returned to the Netherlands in 1644. Piso went with him, but Markgraf was sent to Angola by the West India Company and died there shortly after his arrival. Rare reprint of the 1689 edition. |
