An Abstract of a Treatise Intitled Of the Imitation of Christ and Contempt of the Vanities of the World Written by Thomas a Kempis

1774KMP-0932-13867n.p. London 1774. Hardcover. Good. 1774 n.p. London 3 x 5 inches tall leather bound 252 pp. Moderate to heavy rubbing and edgewear to covers with cracking and chipping to spine and bumping and abrasions to all four tips. Cracking to spine and front joints which have been glued at some point but all holds and the binding remains quite solid. 1785 prior owner name 'Elizabeth Luke' to blank front free-endpaper and top of title page. Otherwise apart from a few pages with slight marginal soiling a very good copy - clean bright and unmarked - of this exceptionally rare early John Wesley abridged version of The Imitation of Christ a fifteenth century Catholic work Wesley translated from its original Latin as part of his faith formation before helping to establish Methodism. The English Short Title Catalog No. N43290 locates only three copies worldwide - one at Harvard and the other two at English libraries in Sheffield and Lancaster. ~KMP~ 1.0P A rare pre-American Revolutionary period London issue of John Wesley's 'extracts' from the fifteenth century devotional classic The Imitation of Christ. Anglican cleric and theologian John Wesley 1703-1791 with his brother Charles and fellow cleric George Whitefield founded Methodism. John Wesley made a full translation of The Imitation from Latin to English in 1735 as one of his first published works. After the birth of the Methodist movement in 1738-39 Wesley produced this greatly abridged version entitled 'An Extract of the Christian's Pattern' first printed in 1741 and reprinted dozens of times thereafter in mostly tiny pocket-sized editions like this most of which didn't survive heavy devotional use by adherents and are therefore uncommon in collections today. Only three of this issue - whose printer is still unidentified by bibliographers - survive in collections catalogued by ESTC worldwide. The Imitation of Christ was written in Latin by Catholic monk Thomas Kempis circa 1380-1471 as four separate books completed between 1420 and 1427 at Mount Saint Agnes monastery in the town of Windesheim located in what is now the Netherlands. He wrote these works for the instruction of novices of his Augustinian monastic order followers of Geert Groote's Brethren of the Common Life. But the writings quickly became popular among all the literate faithful. There is probably no other book apart from the Bible which has been printed in so many editions and translations. n.p.

OCLC No. 43539199 locates only two copies worldwide: Cambridge University UK and Drew University NJ. Reference: Baker Union Catalogue of Publications of John and Charles Wesley No. 26. ~KMP~ 1.0P A remarkably rare early London imprint of John Wesley's celebrated abridgment of the 15th-century devotional classic 'The Imitation of Christ'. Anglican theologian and Methodist founder John Wesley 1703–1791 originally executed a full English translation of Thomas à Kempis's Latin text in 1735 as one of his earliest published works. Following the formal maturation of the Methodist movement in 1738–1739 Wesley realized that his followers required a more accessible portable and streamlined edition focused entirely on 'religion of the heart.' The resulting 'Extract of the Christian's Pattern' was first published in 1741 and systematically stripped of its strictly monastic medieval elements to serve as a daily spiritual handbook for the working-class Methodist societies. Because these pocket-sized volumes were subjected to intensive daily devotional use by early adherents the vast majority were read to pieces. Early editions are exceptionally scarce on the market. Following the 1741 original subsequent editions appeared in Bristol 1746 and London 1753 followed by this rare 1756 printing distributed directly from Wesley's famous ministerial headquarters and chapel at 'The Foundry' in Upper Moorfields. An essential piece of early Wesleyan typography and printing history. John Wesley hardcover
