167566A VERY INTRIGUING LITTLE BOOK OF THE UTMOST RARITY<br /><br />FIRST and ONLY edition. 12mo 96 pp. title within a charming woodcut border. Several headpieces. Contemporary calf with gilt decorations to spine skilfully restored. An excellent copy.<br /><br /><i>This anonymous collection of heroical amorous and frivolous poems is a mystery. It has no imprint information so no place no name nor date stated. The title-page tells us just "printed in that year" which seems a joke. The only bibliographical work mentioning it is Lachèvre's Bibliographie des recueils collectifs de poésies publiés de 1597 a 1700 Paris 1905 in the Supplement Vol. 4 p. 22 Letter N. Not even Lachèvre managed to see this work in person as he stated in his comment to the work: "Nous n'avons pas été assez heureux pour mettre la main sur ce petit volume.". Lachèvre suggested that the book might have been published "vers 1675".</i><br /><br /><i>The book is mentioned also in the third part of Bibliotheca Hohendorfiana no. 1961 p. 149 the catalogue of the private library of Baron Georg Wilhelm von Hohendorf La Haye 1720.</i><br /><br />Only two copies seem to be available in public libraries around the world: at the BNF of Paris "Ex. libr. de Thomas Westwod. Rel. mar. r. de C. Hardy" and at the Austrian National Library which perhaps holds the above mentioned Hohendorf copy.<br /><br />Lachèvre's Bibliographie des recueils collectifs de poésies publiés de 1597 a 1700 Vol. 4 p. 22 Letter N; Bibliotheca Hohendorfiana no. 1961 p. 149. s. n.

1687673L6London: Not Stated 1687. First edition. Paperback. Very Good Indeed. 8" by 6". None. The first edition of this very scarce satire on John Dryden written contemporaneously to his success. Scarce - last seen at auction in 1981. Pages 12 20 are misnumbered as called for. ESTC no: R36782 WING: R1206 Collated complete with the final blank. With the signatures A4 B2 C-E4. This work is a satire on John Dryden with extracts from his poems. The title references his allegorical poem 'The Hind and the Panther' which is regarded as one of his most controversial. Dryden had converted to Catholicism around the same time as the Catholic monarch James II's accession to the throne in 1685. Many Protestant writers were disgusted by this particularly as previous poems by Dryden included praise towards Puritan Protectorate Oliver Cromwell. Dryden's 'The Hind and the Panther' came from Dryden's conversion and he describes the different religious denominations as animals making clear his new stance as a Catholic. This 'Trage-Comedy' is a response to Dryden's 'The Hind and the Panther' and his revolt against his previous beliefs. The introduction provides a synopsis of Dryden's poem and states that for writing it Dryden deserves to be 'reckon'd in the number of the Heathen Gods'. A very scarce work which provides context to the political and social climate of the seventeenth century. Disbound as called for. Externally smart with just a few light spots to the front and rear wraps. Internally firmly bound. To A2 there is a small ring mark at the bottom of the page not affecting the text. Internally firmly bound. Pages are bright. Just the odd spots. Very Good Indeed Not Stated paperback
