Bonnefons, Nicolas de (cont.)

Le jardinier françois (cont)

Exact knowledge about these German eds. is very
meager. Dept. Agr. Lib. has two copies of Van Aengelen, 
one dated 1667 but showing no place of publication, 
while the other was published at Hannover
by T. H. Hauenstein, but its imprint date, if there
ever was one, has been cut off. This may be the issue 
recorded as Hannover, 1673, and from evidence
of spelling and the like, it is pretty certainly
later than that of 1667. But the work of Bonnefons 
is practically identical in the two, without
any apparent verbal changes, and with same paging.
Beside Haller's date, 1664, for the original year
of issue, Miltitz, Bib, Bot. col.287 has an entry
for Hamburg, 1665, with 84 p., which would answer
equally well for the 1st or 2d part; while Münchhausen, 
Hausvater, 3:136, gives the 1665 edition
with the composite title: "Französischer küchen-,
baum- und stauden-gärtner", but gives no paging.
Haller, Bib. Bot. 1:520, enters under Graeflinger
the separate titles for the 1st and 2d parts with
imprints: Hannover, 1666, Minden, 1677, and Wolffenbüttel, 
1695. Miltitz, col.291, has anonymous
entry for 1st part, Minden, 1677.  Cat. Bib. Nat.
31:283, gives ed. of Van Aengelen, Hannover, 1703,
which includes Bonnefons, "Der französische gärtner", 
possibly similar to the issues of Leipzig &
Wolffenbüttel, 1734 (Dept. Agr.), and 1751 (Brit.
Mus.) (MFW)
