Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Moore, Kenneth (illustrator). Neuware - Key of David Bible Stories is a children's Bible series changing the way we view Biblical figures and stories. The Story of Young David, the first book in this series, recounts David's rise to prominence. The story begins when King Saul disobeyed God and erected a monument in his own honor, and concludes with David becoming the Champion of Israel after defeating the mighty Goliath in battle. David wasn't the biggest, the strongest, or even the most esteemed amongst his own brothers; however, God had a greater vision and purpose for David than anyone could have imagined. This is a child-friendly, contemporary version of the popular Bible story that was brought to life with beautiful illustrations, vivid colors and dynamic storytelling to capture the attention of children and adults of all ages.

Very good condition. Reinforced lower centerfold; printer's crease in upper right. Else excellent with a bold, sharp strike and generous margins. Size 15.25 x 19.75 Inches. This is the map of the mythical Kingdom of Prester John in eastern Africa, issued by Willem Blaeu in 1635, in a beautiful example. The map covers from the Bight of Benin to the Indian Ocean and from Arabia and the Red Sea to Mozambique. It includes two decorative cartouches, as well as stylized images of African fauna, including elephants, monkeys, and ostriches. While the African coast exhibits considerable advances over earlier maps of the region, the interior of Africa exhibits a cartography primarily based on the literature of antiquity and little changed from the days of Ptolemy, and its primary subject matter is that of legend. The Kingdom of Prester John This map frames the legendary Kingdom of Prester John (Presbiteri Ioannis) - a persistent and popular figure in European legend. The legend of Prester John dates to about 1145 when a Syrian priest named Hugh traveled to Europe to canvas for a Fifth Crusade. Hugh described Prester John as a great Christian king whose empire was located somewhere in India - the idea being that the two great Christian empires, that of John and that of the Pope, would together make war on the Saracens occupying the Holy Land, thus sandwiching the enemy between two indomitable armies. About 20 years later a curious letter began to circulate around Europe, purportedly by John himself, wherein the mythical King claimed to be some 562 years old and the ruler of the 'Three Indias'. 'India' at this time referred not just to the subcontinent, but much of southern Asia. It was divided into three parts, 'Farther India' or what is today India and Southeast Asia, 'Nearer India' or the modern-day Middle East, and 'Middle India' or the parts of Africa to the east of the Nile River. Having failed to pinpoint the Kingdom of Prester John in Asia, scholars as early as the 14th century began locating John's Kingdom in east Africa. Here they had a bit luck for explorers in the region, starting with the Francisco Alveres of Portugal in the 1500s, soon came into to contact with the Christian Solomonic Kings of Ethiopia or Abyssinia. The Coptic Ethiopian emperor David II fit the mold of the 'Prester John,' and Alveres believed him to be a descendent of the legendary John, thus firmly entrenching the mythical kingdom Prester John on maps of east Africa well into the 18th century. Abraham Ortelius committed the kingdom to a printed map in 1573, and his depiction of the kingdom remained sufficiently canonical for Blaeu to produce this modernized depiction of it using his own map of Africa for a framework. The Updated Map Cartographically this map is derived from Blaeu's own 1608 wall map of Africa one of the most important maps of the continent ever drawn. Most of the interior details offered here, notably the course and sources of the White Nile and its source in two great lakes, are derived from classical texts such as Ptolemy's Geographia. The Lake of Zaire (Zembre Lacus) and Lake Zaflan, themselves appear in the foothills of the Mountains of the Moon or Lunae Montes , located at the base of the map. The Blue Nile, which has its source is modern day Ethiopia, is expressed as a complex network of rivers and valleys bearing little resemblance to reality - although the observer will note that many of the place names, Amara, Tigre, Dobas, and Dangali, do in fact reflect real places and are still in use today. Blaeu also draws a lake at the source of the Niger River, set just north of the West African Kingdom of Biafara, but fails to properly connect the river to its southern extension - which is vaguely noted. Blaeu's place names relating to Prester John's kingdom and the multiplicity of rivers to the east of the Upper Nile are derived from Ortelius' 1571 map focusing on the same theme: an instance of the cartographic authority of his own gen.
