1981216885Beijing. Circa1981. A complete set of 50 black and white photographs of the trial of the Gang of Four during 1980-81. Images clearly show the judges the courtroom and the accused. In excellent condition each photograph is loosely inserted within an A5 polypropylene sleeve all contained in an archival-grade cardboard box. All images measure approximately 20.5 x 15cm. A fascinating series of photos from the trial of the Gang of Four and the remnants of Lin Biao's Central Cultural Revolution Group including images of the court physical evidence and the accused themselves - including though not limited to Jiang Qing Zhang Chunqiao Wang Hongwen and Yao Wenyuan. <br> <br>Included are photos of the accused - in clearly poorer physical health compared to their peak in 1976 - after having reputedly given emotive vitriolic and stubborn statements to the court. Though Jiang Qing and Zhang Chunqiao appear openly hostile or contemptuous to the court - both in their own unique way - Wang Hongwen Yao Wenyuan and the other defendants appear more subdued and mournful in their demeanour seemingly having resigned themselves to their fate. <br> <br>Of particular note is the inclusion of a single page of images of what appears to be the badly charred and broken corpse of Lin Biao as well as the wreckage of his ill-fated flight. These images were presumably supplied to the court by the KGB who had very controversially handled the investigation at the time of the crash despite it having taken place over and within the territory of the Mongolian People's Republic not the Soviet Union. Perhaps to further affirm the position that the corpse was indeed Lin's a forensic-like comparison is made between an image of the body's skull and his distinctive forehead and brow ridge. . unknown

In-12, broché, couverture de papier gris ancien de livraison, 61 p. Edition originale de ce document relatif au procès à l'attentat perpétré par Damiens contre Louis XV et à la question de sa responsabilité. Savant champenois, biographe, collaborateur de l'Encyclopédie, historien et avocat, l'auteur Pierre-Jean Grosley (1718-1785) était attaché à sa ville de Troyes, à ses traditions gallicanes et de fronde janséniste. Il développe la thèse que Damiens, simple valet, très médiocre intellectuellement, ne pouvait pas avoir, par lui-même, des mobiles politiques et qu'il ne fut que l'instrument d'une vaste conspiration. Il cherche à écarter tous soupçons qui pourraient peser sur les milieux parlementaires pour charger les jésuites dont il récapitule le rôle dans les différents régicides. L'auteur laisse planer le soupçon du manque de partialité des magistrats instructeurs du procès, étant donné leur proximité supposée avec les jésuites. L'auteur arriva second au concours de l’Académie de Dijon de 1750 que remporta Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Il a collaboré aux volumesIV et XIV de l’Encyclopédie Diderot-D’Alembert. Le pamphlet fut condamné au feu par arrêt de la cour du 30 mars 1757. (Conlon, Siècle des Lumières, 57:817). Bon exemplaire, frais, bien conservé.

1693D12884Printed by Edward Jones. and Published by him and Randal Taylor 1693. First Edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. Modern half calf and marbled paper gilt-stamped lettering on spine; 300x187mm; pp. 4 64. Binding is fine. Text block browned as expected; tiny chips at corners of first two leaves. <br/><br/>In December 1692 the young but already dissolute Cornish peer Charles 4th Lord Mohun was involved in a fracas arising from a botched attempt to kidnap the popular actress Anne Bracegirdle. Mohun was acting as accomplice to a young army officer Captain Hill who had taken a fancy to Bracegirdle and decided not to take no for an answer. Their plan to bundle her into a coach was thwarted by the intervention of several of Bracegirdles neighbours but principally by her fellow actor William Mountford. In the ensuing scuffle Mountford was stabbed; he died shortly after. His trial was one of the society events of the year as Mohun had already been part of numerous duels and brawls and tho he was not yet a member of the House his father had been a good Whig and the young Lords future vote was not something that either party were keen to squander. His acquittal proved as sensational as the trial itself had been. One newsletter commented bitterly that a commoner would not have been so fortunate; others debated the intricacies of an attempted appeal that it was thought Mountfords widow intended to lodge but which was expected to be stifled by the Lords. Perhaps most intriguing of all was the conclusion drawn by Queen Mary herself that the verdict was symptomatic of a rot at the very heart of society. Mohun did not learn his lesson. He continued to brawl and only a few years later he was again arrested for another murder of an apparently unrelated Captain Hill. On this occasion he was spared a trial though and took advantage of a royal pardon. Over the next few years he repaid his Whig colleagues trust in him by proving a dependable lieutenant in the House. He may well have been fulfilling precisely the same role when he took the field against the Tory Duke of Hamilton with fatal consequences for both.
