Englished and set forth with their several Sculptures by JOHN OGILEY Esq; Master of his Majesties Revels in the Kingdom of Ireland. LONDON Printed by John Macock for the Author MDCLXIX." Due to being translated into English by the bookseller John Ogilby in 1669 this is one of the earliest European attempts at an accurate description of China and its population. Due to its isolation under the Ming dynasty earlier descriptions of China relied on fanciful tales and legends many originating from ancient and medieval texts and hearsay. A Folio sized hardcover book measuring 42.5 x 4.5 x 28.2 cm approx 16.3/4" x 11.1" x 2.5" . In powder blue cloth boards with a brown spine unknown material with gilt title lettering and an inset image of an Oriental on the front board. Top edge gilt.

The book consists of both an account of an embassy of the Dutch East India Company to the Shunzhi Emperor 1638-1661 and an account of general Chinese customs and occupations. The information was gathered and collated by Johan Nieuhof one of the party which visited the Emperor in Beijing. His first-hand account therefore allowed accurate descriptions and depictions of Chinese architecture clothing and landscapes. Notably the book contains possibly one of the earliest descriptions of the cultivation of TEA specifically stating its expense and its value to East Asian society.

1598001041London: Thomas Creede 1598. First English language edition. . Hardcover. See Description. Small folio. Lacking preliminary blank leaf thus pp. 10 310 292 4. Page numbering is erratic. Leaf Ee3 is mis-signed as F3 but all leaves are present and in order. The title page contains a woodcut vignette/device. Each chapter begins with a woodcut decorative head piece and an initial. Bound in full dark brown modern calf with blind tooled borders and stamps after an early period style. The upper part of the title page is age-toned / tanned; a professionally sealed 7 cm. tear runs from the gutter part way across the upper portion of the title and is difficult to detect on first sight; a couple of tiny chips on the top edge are restored. Interior pages are generally attractive but with occasional mild age-toning and periodic faint marginal damp staining. A small repair patch is present on the inner margins of leaves A6 and V6. A tear on leaf V6 also carefully sealed extends vertically about 8.5 cm from the lower gutter and part way into the text but causing almost no obscuration. Printed by Thomas Creede who is best known for issuing dramatic works including some of Shakespeares plays. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is a translation of "Recueil des choses mémorables avenues en France sous le règne de Henri II François II Charles IX Henri III et Henri IV." This work is generally attributed to either Simon Goulart or Jean de Serres and was first printed in French no place or publisher in 1595 and again in 1598 expanded to include the reign of Henri IV up to the year 1597. See Brunet IV 1161-1162. The second part with new pagination provides translated selections from Pierre Matthieus 4 part "Histoire des derniers troubles de France" first published in Lyons 1594-95. A section at the end is titled "a brief recitall of the most memorable things which came to passé in Fraunce under the raigne of Henry the fourth until the middle of the Yeare 1598" which if written by Matthieu may possibly represent the first printing of some amendments which Matthieu later added to the second edition of his "Histoire" printed in 1600. This collection provides interesting testaments to the wars of religion in France during the 16th century. A separate 4 page tract at the end is titled: "A true discourse concerning the deliverie of Brittaine in the yeare 1598." ESTC S121331; USTC 513796; Lowndes p. 831; Hazlitt Biblio.

Title in red and black Royal Coat of Arms on title slight tanning and faint foxing R2-3 with clean tears in from foremargin no loss otherwise a very good copy. Third edition of one of Twysden's most widely read antiquarian works first published in 1657. It is a "detailed account of the increase of papal powers over England from the Saxons to the Reformation . arguing . that it was the Church of England rather than Rome which had held fast to the true faith. Twysden denied that the English church 'made a departure from the Church which is the ground and pillar of truth' p. 196. This temperate and urbane argument placed Twysden within the tradition of earlier apologists for the Church of England such as Richard Hooker and Thomas Fuller" - DNB. ESTC R15191. WING T3554.
