H. Hardy...In 1930 the University Press took on the publishing of a major mathematical journal, the Quarterly Journal of Mathematics . This had been published in Cambridge hitherto, under the increasingly eccentric editorship of James Glaisher, its editor for half a century from 1878 until his death in 1928. On Glaisher's death, G. H. Hardy--at this time Savilian Professor of Geometry at Oxford--successfully urged that both editorship and publication of the journal be transferred to Oxford. An editorial board was formed of three young Oxford mathematicians, Theodore Chaundy, William Ferrar, and Edgar Poole, and the journal went from strength to strength, bolstering along the way Oxford's research reputation within the international mathematics community. At the same time, the University Press was seeking to develop its mathematics and science publishing side, and took the opportunity to make a thorough overhaul of its mathematical printing. The University Printer, John Johnson, went to considerable pains to study the work of foreign printers, buy new type, adapt and recut type faces, and set specimen pages for comment by a range of leading mathematicians. At that time few printers had experience of setting mathematics by machine, and the result was a major contribution to knowledge and expertise in the subject. The Quarterly Journal editor most closely involved with this activity was Theodore Chaundy, who was later to collaborate on a classic text, The printing of mathematics. In the words of Johnson's colleague Kenneth Sisam, the eventual result was to reach a standard of mathematical printing worthy of `the recent renascence of mathematical studies in Oxford'."

Bacon, Francis : Sylva Sylvarum, sive Historia Naturalis, in decem centurias distribute, Anglice olim conscripta, a Francisco Bacono Barone Verulamio, nunc Lati[n]o transscripta a Jacobo Grutero P.F. Medicina Candidato. Leiden: Franciscum Hackium 1648. 12mo., [1]ff, [34], 612pp [pp 454-5 misnumbered 654-5], [47]; 87pp. Bound in contemporary sheepskin with faded manuscript title to spine, additional collective engraved title and separate title page for Novus Atlas, pages clean and fresh but some minor worming to upper margin (affecting a few letters of ) of aprox. 75 pages as well as blank margin of engraved title, but not detracting much from the work, a handsome copy likely in original binding, holding extremely well, manuscript 17th/18th century signature of a William Wright to endpaper and title. Scarce first Latin edition of Bacon�s celebrated work, published the same year as an Elzevir printing in Amsterdam. First published posthumously in the year of Bacon�s death (1626), Sylva Sylvarum is a an aptly-described �miscellany of topics�, dealing with the prolongation of life, the natural world, and the wisdom of the ancients, arranged in 1000 numbered paragraphs. William Rawley, Bacon�s secretary, chose to addend the unfinished manuscript of New Atlantis to the former work, if only for convenience�s sake. Bacon�s utopian population famously practice eugenic breeding and are committed fundamentally to the pursuit of scientific learning. Having enjoyed five English editions by 1639, the present work attests to Bacon�s popularity beyond British shores; Elzevir in Amsterdam and Hackium in Leiden brought out simultaneous Latin translations in 1648. Hackium�s re-engraved title page, interestingly, follows the original of 1626 rather closely, including a globe with outlines of the continents. PKM 91808 £450
