17638583Bassompierre Liege 1763. 8vo. on laid paper with decorative title small neat contemporary signature on half-title some negligible marginal age-staining on a few leaves; contemporary full speckled calf back with five raised bands second compartment with red leather label lettered and ruled in gilt all other compartments framed and tooled in gilt to a floral design marbled endpapers red edges upper hinge cracked but binding entirely sound two small worm-holes at tail of backstrip a crisp clean copy. Complete with half-title; wanting one blank preliminary.Louis-Antoine Caraccioli 1723-1803 was a prolific writer of poetry history fiction and biography. Born in Paris he served as colonel to Augustus III King of Poland and Elector of Saxony and so travelled widely throughout Europe. Despite close ties to both Louis XV and Louis XVI he managed to survive the Revolution though eventually he died in penury. The broad thematic range of his works makes him interesting to scholars of manners and many other subjects. He is best known among bibliophiles for two publications printed with coloured inks: Le livre de quatre couleurs 1757 and Le livre à la mode 1759 But the full list of his works is much longer 'trop fécond' complains the ungenerous Nouvelle Biographie Générale and many of them are of interest. The present work was first published in Paris by Nyon earlier in the same year. It remained popular throughout the eighteenth century and was translated into English as 'The Language of Reason' in 1802. This edition the first non-French issue is scarce.

17897210Printed by J. Nichols for George Leigh and John Sotheby 1789. 8vo. First and Sole Edition on laid paper some very mild age-staining; late eighteenth century full calf neatly rebacked in calf to style original leather label gilt preserved red edges a remarkably fresh crisp copy. With the engraved armorial bookplate of a town museum and the donor's original signed presentation slip on front paste-down. Scapula's 'Lexicon' was first published by Henri Stephanus in 1557. This Appendix is dedicated to Anthony Askew 1722-1774 founder of the Bibliotheca Askeviana and an eminent Classical scholar educated at Emmanuel College Cambridge and at Leiden. He became MD in 1750 and was appointed physician to St. Bartholomew's and Christ's hospitals and registrar of the College of Physicians. Himself the author of a manuscript volume of Greek inscriptions his outstanding library was sold by Baker & Leigh in 1775. See Quaritch DEBC p. 323. 'Askew's house was crowded with books up to the garrets. The collection was chiefly Classical and it was its possessor's aim to have every edition of a Greek author' Sale catalogue of the Bibliotheca Askeviana. Sive Catalogus Librorum Rarissimorum Baker & Leigh 1775. The sale of his library lasted twenty days and realised a total of £3993 0s 6d; the principal purchasers were Dr. Hunter Mr. Cracherode the British Museum and the kings of England and of France. Askew's manuscripts presumably including those pertinent to the present work were catalogued separately; their sale took place in 1785. The sale catalogue indicates that an appendix to Scapula's Lexicon was edited by Dr. Chas Burney in 1789 so it is likely that the present work is the title referred to. Charles Burney 1757-1817 classical scholar was the son of Charles Burney the musician and musicologist. Since Burney the younger published numerous tracts and papers relating to Greek literature he could well be the author but we have been unable to verify this attribution from any other source. Extremely scarce. [Printed by] J. Nichols [for] George Leigh and John Sotheby, hardcover
