Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book brings together numerous contributions to the field of magnetoelectric (ME) composites that have been reported so far. Theoretical models of ME coupling in composites relate to the wide frequency range: from low-frequency to microwave ones and are based on simultaneous solving the elastostatic/elastodynamic and electrodynamics equations. Suggested models enable one to optimize magnetoelectric parameters of a composite. The authors hope to provide some assimilation of facts into establish knowledge for readers new to the field, so that the potential of the field can be made transparent to new generations of talent to advance the subject matter.

Berlin, G. Reimer, 1832. [Reprint Whitefish, Kessinger Publishing, 2010]. XIV,425 pp. 5 b./w. plts. Softcover. A somewhat simpler reprint of this scarce work. The map of Mongolia is not reproduced in this edition. - - Nikita Yakovlevich Bichurin (29 August 1777 - 11 May 1853, St. Petersburg), better known under his archimandrite monastic name Hyacinth (sometimes rendered as Joacinth), or Iakinf, was one of the founding fathers of Russian Sinology. He translated many works in Chinese into Russian which were then translated into other European languages.

In a particularly fine Russian binding --- Important, early description of Mongolia: first edition of the first book of father Iakinf, called later "the father of Russian sinology". Bichurin (1777-1853), here writing under his monastic name Iakinf, was named in 1805 leader of the 9th Russian Mission to Peking and head of the Sretenskii monastery in this town. During his 14-year stay he learnt Chinese, compiled his own dictionary and prepared other scholar works for later publication. He returned to Saint Petersburg in 1821: the first part of these Zapiski contains a detailed travel account of Iakinf's journey from Pekin to the Russian border town Kiakhta, including descriptions of the Great Wall, of the cities of Kalgan (Zhangjiakou) and Urga (Ulan Bator), the Gobi desert etc. The three other parts are entirely devoted to Mongolia, then under Chinese rule: its geography, political system, climate, trade, population (its structure, fashion and customs). Bichurin gives a sketch of the history of Mongols, as well as of the legal system used by China to rule the region. The work was highly appreciated by the Russian and European scientific communities and became an important reference for other sinologists and specialists on Central Asia, being translated into French and German in 1832. Bichurin became a member of the prestigious Russian Academy of Sciences shortly after the publication of these Notes, in 1828; in 1831 he also joined the Asiatic Society of Paris. He went on to publish several works on China and Mongolia. In 1837 he opened the first Chinese-language school in the Russian Empire. A lovely, very finely bound example of this scarce book, illustrated with hand-coloured plates and a folding map showing the road from Beijing to Kiakhta, with Manchuria, Mongolia and the Eastern Turkestan. The plates show Chinese and Mongol costumes (including a Mongol woman riding a horse) and, as frontispiece, "a noble Chinese man in summer dress" by Orlovskii, the celebrated pioneer of lithography in Russia, and a master of the technique. Several sources, including a 1950s Soviet edition of the book, recognised in this "noble Chinese man" a portrait of Bichurin himself, indeed resembling a portrait sketched by Nikolai Bestuzhev, an artist and a Decembrist who was exiled to Siberia in 1827. Provenance: Skt. Peterb. Dukhovnaia Seminariia (ink stamps to both titles, number stamped to first title). Physical description:Four parts in two volumes 8vo, bound in one (22 x 13.7 cm). xii incl. title, 231pp with 5 hand-coloured lithographed plates incl. one frontispiece; vi incl. title, 339 pp. and folding engraved map with hand-coloured outlines. Contemporary Russian binding of straight-grained purple paper boards with gilt floral border, brown morocco spine with raised bands, elaborately stamped in gilt and blind, small morocco corners, marbled endpapers, all edges gilt. Condition:Occasional light soiling, a few leaves and plates a bit browned, map edges and boards edges rubbed with some paper missing, corners bumped; the beautiful spine spine still very fresh and overall fine condition. Bibliography:Obolianonov 1027; Solovev, kat. 105, 159 (also in one volume and in a half-binding, marking it 15 rub).

First edition. Two vols in one, 8vo. xii, 231pp with 5 hand-coloured lithographed plates; vi, 339 pp., folding engraved map with hand-coloured outlines. Later half-calf over dark red cloth, gilt lettering to spine and upper cover; spine a bit faded. An important, early description of Mongolia; first edition. A lovely example of this rare book, with hand-coloured plates and interesting provenance. Bichurin (1777-1853) was named in 1805 leader of the 9th Russian Mission to Peking and head of the Sretenskiy monastery in this town. During his 14-year stay he learnt Chinese and compiled his own dictionary and prepared other scholar works for later publication. The first volume of the present work gives an account of the journey and the second volume a detailed examination of the geographical and political condition of the Mongols and their life and customs. Angus Ivan Ward (1893-1969) served in the U.S. army during World War I before becoming U.S. Vice Consul in Mukden, China, in 1926, and then in Tientsin. In 1938 he was sent to Moscow, serving as U.S. Consul General in Vladivostok during WWII from 1943. Before becoming U.S. Ambassador in Afghanistan (1952-56), he was back in Mukden as Consul in 1948, where he and several consulated staff were imprisoned and held under house arrest by Mao Zedong's People's Liberation Army for almost a year, creating a diplomatic rift with the United States. Ward built a very good collection of travel accounts and language books related to China and the Far East, most books being bound similarly to this one. Obolyaninov 1027.

First edition, rare, of this pioneering description of Central Asia by one of the founders of Russian sinology, Iakinf Bichurin (1777-1853); it gathers three Chinese texts in their first European translation. The region covered corresponds to northwest China and Central Asia, comprising East Turkestan and Dzungaria, the latter bounded by the Tan Shan mountain range to the south and the Altai Mountains to the north. No copy traced and it appears to have eluded the great French sinologist Henri Cordier. The Chinese sources cover the history and contemporary condition of the so-called "Western Lands", corresponding to modern Xinjiang or Uyghur Autonomous Region of China. The book describes the ancient history of the "Western Lands" from the second century BC and is based on three original Chinese works: "Se yu chuen" ("Narration about the Western Lands"), a portion of the "Tscen Han shoo" (The Book of Han), by the first century AD historian Ban Gu and "Se yu vuin tzeen l h" ("Notes seen and heard in the Western Lands"). Iakinf's 16-page preface is followed by an alphabetic index of ancient geographical names clarifying their location at the time, a table of distances between military stations in Chinese Turkestan precedes the main text and is supplemented with extracts from various government regulations and statutes regarding the region (the settlement of Chinese exiles and criminals, duties and customs, possessions of the Turkestan princes, etc.) and genealogical lists of the princes and rulers of the lands in Eastern Turkestan. The attractive colour plates depict a Kalmyk warrior and his wife, an inhabitant of the area near Bukhara (a falconer with hooded bird on his arm) and a Turkestan girl. Nikita Yakovievich Bichurin (1777-1853), better known by his monastic name of Iakinf or Hyacinth, was the first Russian sinologist, and the leading authority on Asia of his day. Originally a tonsured monk, he was named head of the Russian Orthodox Mission to Peking in 1807. He soon became aware of the serious dearth of knowledge about the region which was hindering missionary efforts, and so began an intensive programme of study in Chinese languages and culture. Bichurin immersed himself in the translation of Chinese classics, the compilation of dictionaries of regional languages and dialects, and wide-ranging surveys of Chinese history, religion and geography, including the first detailed descriptions of Beijing; he also created an ethnographic record covering folk customs, regional dress, and popular religious practices. He travelled extensively visiting Mongolia and Tibet, famously being the first European to produce a view of Lhasa. His published studies including Notes about Mongolia, A Description of Tibet, and a History of Tibet and Tsinghai. In 1821, after 14 years in China, Iakinf returned to Russia, where his concentration on geographical studies led to questions concerning his religious motivation. He was stripped of his title of archmandrite, and sent into exile at Valaam Monastery in Karelia, the farthest north outpost of the Orthodox Church, for four years. After his release from the monastery, in 1826, Iakinf became a translator for the Asian Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He continued his studies of China, being instrumental in the establishment of a Chinese language school in Kyakhta near the Mongolia-Russia border, and made two trips to Siberia in 1830 to 1831 and 1835 to 1837. His work as a sinologist was recognized with membership of the Academies of Science of Russia, Germany, and France. Not in Cordier. 2 vols. 4 hand-coloured lithograph costume plates.

First Edition. First edition, 2 volumes, 8vo, pp. xxxi, [1], 258; ix (i.e., x), 259, [1]; engraved title page in each volume, folding engraved map hand-colored in outline (very short tear entering from the guard); contemporary half calf over marbled boards; the binding is rubbed, but sound, and internally clean. Nikita Yakovlevich Bichurin (1777-1853) was an outstanding Russian sinologist and corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Better known under his archimandrite monastic name Hyacinth, or Iakinf, he was one of the founding fathers of Russian Sinology. A monk from 1800, Iakinf was appointed in 1807 as the superior of the Orthodox mission in Peking (Beijing) and spent 14 years there. He translated the Orthodox liturgy and compiled a catechism in Chinese. More scholar than monk by nature, Iakinf immersed himself in Chinese studies. He devoted most of his time to compiling dictionaries, translating Chinese classics, and writing original works on Chinese history, geography, and religion. Upon his return to Russia, he lived in the Valaam monastery and in the St. Petersburg Alexander Nevsky Lavra (from 1826), where he wrote books on sinology that were translated into many languages. Cordier Sinica 2880-2881; Lust 200: "History of Tibet and the Kokonor region from B.C. 2282 to A.D. 1227." The book is rare. We find copies (under different spellings) at Yale, N.Y. Public, The Field Museum, University of Washington, Oxford, SOAS Library, and the Staatsbibliothek in Berlin. The Erfurt and Bayerische Staatsbibliothek libraries apparently hold single volumes only.
