1786ST20133London: Excudebant A. Rivington & J. Marshall: Impensis J. F. & C. Rivington T. Longman & T. Cadell 1786. 175 x 105 mm. 7 x 4 1/4". 368 pp. 1 leaf ads. <br/> Contemporary brown "school cloth" rough linen raised bands. Front flyleaf with owner inscription of John Cutler dated Sept 21 1789 four lines of Latin doggerel threatening anyone who steals the book with hanging and two large copperplate trials of Cutler's signature. ESTC N63834. Not in Darlow & Moule. A little fraying at top and bottom of joints light foxing and toning throughout due to paper quality a couple of small ink stains but a surprisingly appealing copy the text extremely clean and the unsophisticated makeshift binding--remarkably--with no significant wear.<br/> <br/> This is an almost startling survival: an 18th century New Testament in Greek in its original utilitarian binding preserved in condition far better than what could be anticipated given the audience of generally uncareful pupils for which it was intended. Considering the usual depredations of school children the rough school cloth should have been worn to shreds long ago but against the odds it has fortuitously escaped hard use and now gives us a glimpse of an important element of the English schoolroom very close to its original condition. One particularly delightful aspect of our copy is the flamboyant declaration of ownership by a pupil called John Cutter who inked his name no fewer than four times in different styles and with calligraphic flourishes across the flyleaf. Cutter's neatly penned book curse threating any would-be thieves with hanging may have helped to preserve the book as it now exists. In fact there are few signs of use by any owner rightful or unlawful. The leaves are free from any markings and the insubstantial binding appears to have rarely left the shelf. Excudebant A.

1763138322Glasgow: Printed by Robert and Andrew Foulis 1763. First edition in English of Plato's Republic marking the first appearance in the English language of Plato's profoundly influential dialogue concerning the nature of justice. Quarto bound in full polished calf with raised gilt bands to the spine morocco spine label lettered in gilt all edges speckled red. Harry Spens was a minister at the parish of Wemyss in Fife and respected classicist. In his introduction he professes his intent in his translation is: "To give the English Reader a view of Plato's sentiments and manner of writing and to stir up the youth to the study of the Ancients." Richard Garnett in his own introduction of the Everyman's Library reprint of this translation laments the relative lack of critical attention paid to it writing: "On the whole Spens's version should not be lightly esteemed. It is clearly the work of a scholar and a man of considerable literary ability." The brothers Robert and Andrew Foulis were renowned printers of classical works in their time sometimes referred to as 'the Elzevirs of Britain.' Their works mostly intended for scholars were "much sought after as admirable specimens of typography and are noticeable for their severely plain elegance" DNB 7: 514. In very good condition. Rare and desirable. "Its setting and its characters are full of political meaning. Its arguments are tantalizing and its fables fascinating… Plato's utopia is alarming and his metaphysics are intoxicating" Levi 348. The Republic "has reinforced dedication awakened vocations to leadership and strengthened the morale of those modest and competent souls who are always in reality the guardians of society" Rexroth 79.
