By Anonymous Illustrated By: Various Illustrator Bio: Synopsis: Theatrum Mundi or the Great Theatre of the World is a metaphorical concept developed throughout Western literature and thought evident in theories of the world such as Plato's Allegory of the Cave and a popular idea in the Baroque period among some writers. This metaphysical explanation of the world portrays the world as a theatre evident in Shakespeare's dictum that "all the world's a stage" in which people are characters and their actions form a drama with God as the author specifically for some Christian thinkers.

1803102506London: House of Commons c. 1803 reprint. Hardcover. Very Good. Pages 217-286. Rebound in navy cloth spine and blue paper boards. Dampstained title page and further stains to margins at rear. <br/><br/>In March 1749 a British parliamentary committee was created to enquire into the state and condition of the land adjoining Hudson's Bay and the trade carried on there. One of the key witnesses was James Isham who arrived back from North America to give evidence. Isham whose name appears frequently in this volume felt settlement by the shores of Hudson's Bay was impossible since food crops could not be grown there inland posts were needed even at uneconomic costs in transportation and no practical northwest passage really existed. Much of the text consists of appendices such as His Majesty's Royal Charter. House of Commons hardcover

18770383571877. Original manuscript. Very Good. 4pp octavo written in sepia ink on a single folded leaf; top few lines of first page are cross-hatched as the writer finishes up her message. In the original mailing envelope torn open addressed to Hannah Pancoast Mount Holly Burlington Co. New Jersey with a three-cent stamp postmarked at Philadelphia. Addressed to “My dearest H.†the writer says she received her letter when she was about to leave Paris but is writing her a less “hurried†reply now that she’s aboard ship although “it seems impossible to give thee an idea of the joy of the whole summer.†The rest of the letter is rhapsodic in its report of the beauties of Italy and Switzerland. The writer who notes that only 8 of “our party…went through Italy entirely†mentions seeing Naples Pompeii taking “lovely rides on the Bay of Naples†and “days at Rome sightseeing.†She then spent “day after day at Venice…riding in those gondolas a lazy dreaming life…†and including a trip from there to “the island where Byron spent so much of his time†San Lazarro degli Armeni. “The glory of the beauty of some of the past scenes can never fade from memory†and she singles out the ride from Pisa to Genoa with its tunnels and sights of “fishermen and …children…and little parties in bathing….†as especially charming. She was equally taken with the beauties of “Switzerland with its lakes†where she accomplished “the ascent of the Rigi†mountain near Lake Lucerne and also crossed the unforgettable mountain passes. She concludes “But I must tell thee all about this†in person and goes on to describe shipboard life. “There are ten Rev. gentlemen on board and they have family worship twice a day.†There is also “a great deal of musical talent on board…quite a concert…and last night a comical school. Miss Florence would have nejoyed the fun…fancy readings and recitations then one is asked to promenade and play games.†she also plays two-hour chess games with a “prof. from Georgia†and then with “another gentlemanâ€. She opines “this is a lazy life†and says she’ll be happy to see her “dear ones†next week lists them all and ends with “Han I long to see thee and tell thee of the romances of this whole summer outing…†Unsigned. We find online that Hannah H. Pancoast was born 28 May 1862 the daughter of Joseph Pancoast and Susan Thompson of Salem County New Jersey. the “Steamship Bolivia†was an Anchor Line ship built by Glasgow’s Robert Duncan Co. and launched in 1873. unknown
