Later half calf over marbled boards. Spine with five raised bands compartments with gilt lines and floral vignettes. Black morocco label with gilt title. = Virtually unknown edition of an interesting work in relation to the growth of scientific and historical knowledge by the French philosopher orientalist and historian Constantin François de Chassebuf Comte de Volney 1757-1820 first published in French in 1808 as Recherches nouvelles sur l'histoire ancienne. A first English edition was published in 1819 by Simpkin Marshall in London; this edition however is not dated and is widely different. Its publication is announced in Cobbett's Political Register volume 586 on 6 May 1826. Thomas Davison was a printer of radical works between 1819-1830 and served two years in prison for blasphemous libel. The work deals with various philosophers mythology culture etc. but mainly with Middle Eastern people and persons in particular those of historical importance for instance Moses Herodotus Flavius Josephus etc. Former owners autograph on front flyleaf otherwise a very good clean copy in a nice contemporary-style binding. Apart from the above publication announcement and one doubtful listing in OCLC with an 1830 date we found no records of this edition. hardcover
