Boston: William Ticknor, 1844. 12mo. 180 x 115 mm., [7 x 4 ½ inches]. 42 pp. Original blue printed paper wrappers. Charles Northend was the Principal of the Aborn Street School in Salem Massachusetts. His essay outlines his reaction to new theories of education that were circulating in the public school system in and around Boston. "But while many are thus prompt in bringing forward, with so much apparent interest, zeal and confidence, new theories, how few are really competent to carry any to successful operation. Many have yet to learn that theory is one thing and practice quite another.".

"This society was instituted in the year 1780, in the city of Philadelphia, for the purpose of keeping up the knowledge of the German language, and to preserve it in its purity."

Roma: Da' Torchi di Mariano de Romanis e Figli, 1810. 8vo. 210 x 130 mm. (7 ¾ x 5 inches). (2), 106 pp. Contemporary vellum; vellum uniformily soiled, title in ink on the spine. Only edition. Interesting work which discusses the development of hand formed letters during the Medieval period and hypothesizes that many manuscripts from that time were actually printed long before Gutenberg's invention of the black art. Requeno examines the uniformity of letter forms designed that appear in early manuscripts and tries to demonstrate that as early as the 10th century letter forms were engraved and pressed by hand onto sheets of vellum and paper by scribes work in the various monasteries in Germany and Italy. A new edition of his Chirotipografia was published in 2020, with an introductory essay by Antonio Castronuovo. In his essay Castronuovo suggests that Requeno's devotion to the classical world, blurred his understanding of the great strides in art and printing that had taken…
