36360London: Printed for Presentation to Members of The Roxburghe Club 1985. 4to xvi 75pp. image of a bust of Henry VIII by Torrigiani as frontispiece facsimiles of the Pynson edition in full and the existing fragments of the Goes edition images of bindings and other fragments in the text orig. cloth. With notes on the two unique editions in Westminster Abbey Library descriptions of the bindings in which they were preserved and the other items found in these bindings by Howard M. Nixon. The Gardyners Passetaunce is a propaganda poem promoting the newly formed Holy League which was proclaimed on 4 October 1511. It is a simplified version of a densely written Latin tract by James Whytstons which discusses the nature of a just war the merit of fighting in defence of the Pope and compares Louis XIII of France to various tyrants and persecutors of religion. Pynson the king's printer published this 'tabloid' poetic version at the behest of the King and Court to spread the propaganda to a wider less academic public a second edition appeared probably in the same year printed by Goes and Watson. The poem is anonymous but Nixon's essay on the poem's history does provide all the available evidence on the subject and draws his conclusions. An excellent book published by the Roxburghe Club in honour of Howard M. Nixon after his death. London: Printed for Presentation to Members of The Roxburghe Club, 1985 hardcover

1952BOOKS005293<p>Royal octavo 9 3/4" x 7" issued in wrappers. Volume 8 numbers 2 through 20 lacks number 1. Published bi-monthly. Betts: 42-9 First edition.<br /><br /><em>Fairy Chess Review </em>FCR was a magazine that was devoted principally to fairy chess problems but also included extensive original results on related questions in mathematical recreations such as knight's tours and polyominos under the title of "dissections" as well as much else such as chess-related word puzzles.</p><p>It appeared six times per year and nine volumes were published from 1930 to 1958. Although they are often referred to under the title <em>Fairy Chess Review</em> the first two volumes August 1930 to June 1936 in fact bore the title <em>The Problemist Fairy Chess Supplement.</em> These were published by the British Chess Problem Society BCPS as an offshoot of their magazine <em>The Problemist</em> which began in 1926. The first two volumes were supported financially by the Falmouth businessman Charles Masson Fox who was also a problemist who died in 1936. From volume 3 onward the <em>FCR</em> was independent of the BCPS although most of its contributors were members. The editor from 1930 until August 1951 was Thomas Rayner Dawson who died in November that year. An "In Memoriam" issue was edited by C. E. Kemp in February 1952 and the magazine then continued under the editorship of Dennison Nixon April 1952 to April 1956 and C. E. Kemp June 1956 to April 1958.<br /><br /><strong>Condition:</strong><br /><br />Fold in center for mailing purposes some internal markings light edge wear. A very good set of a scarce chess publication.</p> Fairy Chess Review paperback
