Second enlarged Dutch edition of a chiliastic work on the coming realm of Christ by Daniel van Breen (1594-1664), pupil of the Remonstrant leader Simon Episcopius and later one of the leading "Collegianten" (members of the College of the Prophets, founded in 1646) in Amsterdam. He first published the present work anonymously in 1653, in both a Latin edition under the title Tractatus de regno ecclesiae glorioso, per Christum in terris erigendo and in a Dutch edition.The present copy is printed on good quality, large (Crown) paper, watermarked: AM = horn on a crowned shield above 4 and WR.

First Dutch editions of the first two works and second Dutch edition of the third work. They are here issued together with their own title pages to which a general title was added. These Dutch editions were revised and expanded by both the author and the translator; the latter also added a preface. Daniel van Breen (or Daniel de Breen) was a Socianian theologian, a pupil of the remonstrant leader Simon Episcopius, and a member of the heterodox Collegiants in Amsterdam. The third work is his best knownbook, a chiliastic work on the coming realm of Christ. An earlier Dutch edition appeared 1653, a Latin edition with the title Tractatus de regno Ecclesi� glorioso per Christum in terris erigendo' in 1657.The translator Frans Kuyper (1629-1691), also known as Franciscus Cuperus, a nephew of Van Breen, was also the publisher of the volume. He acquired some fame as the publisher of the Socinian Bibliotheca Fratrum Polonorum', forbidden by the States of Holland in 1674. He was also a member of the Collegiants and, though critical towards the ideas of Spinoza, also accused of Spinozistic sympathies. His conflict with another critic of Spinoza, Johannes Bredenburg, is now considered as the first public debate about Spinoza's philosophy. P.Knijff & S.J.Visser, Bibliographia sociniana' 3046.

Collection of 6 maps (the first in 6 sheets). Interesting collection of maps of the Beemster polder, which in the 16th century was an eight by nine kilometre inland sea north of Amsterdam. Its reclamation in the years 1607 to 1612, financed largely by the Dutch East India Company, was one of the most ambitious of the early 17th-century drainage projects. Dykes were built and the water was pumped out by 41 windmills, creating a large polder with sorely needed residential and above all farming land near the rapidly expanding city of Amsterdam. Including: Ad 1: Apparently the last reprint, not reported in the literature, of a magnificent map of the Beemster Polder, on a scale of about 1:11,500, which "may be called the finest water-authority map of this era" (Fockema Andreae, Gesch. Kartografie Nederland, p. 36). The land was surveyed and the map drawn in 1640 by Balthasar Florisz. van Berckenrode and engraved in 1644 by Daniel van Breen. Ad 2: Rare reduced version, in its first state, of the map of the Beemster by Balthasar Florisz. van Berckenrode and Daniel van Breen. It was issued in a second state in 1769, revised by Jan Switsers. Ad 3: Rare surveyor's map clarifying the state of the dyke of the Beemster polder. Ad 4-6: Three modern maps of the Beemster. A few small tears along the edges (ad 3) and a minor dampstain in two leaves (ad 1). Collection of maps of the Beemster in very good condition.l Ad 1: cf. Donkersloot-De Vrij 130; Hameleers (1984) 13; De Vries, Beemsterlants Caerten 10 (none mentioning this printing); ad 2: Donkersloot-De Vrij 130 note; De Vries, Beemsterlants Caerten 12A (5 copies); ad 3: De Vries, Beemsterlants Caerten 13 (5 copies).

Afbeeldinge van zeker concept tot Bedykinge van de Haarlemmer, Leydse en andere byleggende Meeren, kopergravure naar het ontwerp van Jacob Bartelsz Veeris gegraveerd door Daniel van Breen. De kaart verscheen eerst in 1641 bij Nicolaes Visscher, dit exemplaar werd ca. 1750 uitgegeven door zijn opvolger Pieter Schenk Jr. Later met de hand gekleurd. Afm. 47,5 x 71 cm. Hoewel in de 17de eeuw op grote schaal meren in Noord-Holland werden ingepolderd, bleef het project om het steeds verder afkalvende Haarlemmermeer droog te leggen voorlopig liggen. Rivaliteit tussen Haarlem en Leiden, dat niet graag de inkomsten uit de visrechten van de enorme binnenzee wilde verliezen, maakte dat de plannen niet ten uitvoer werden gebracht. Nadat in 1836 een storm het water opjoeg tot Amsterdam en Leiden werd besloten de Haarlemmermeer toch droog te malen. Dat gebeurde uiteindelijk tussen 1848 en 1852. Prijs: Euro 1.250,-.
