1608A86AMHKI23W2Amsterdam 1608. Small 4to. Disbound. With a woodcut device on the title-page. 8 pp. A letter from the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II to the Dutch States General dated 19 October 1607 concerning the peace negotiations with Spain with the States General's undated answer in fact from 7 January 1608 and longer than the Emperor's letter. The Emperor notes that King Philip of Spain and his governor in the Netherlands Archduke Albert have already recognized the United Provinces as a "Free Republic" regrets that the negotiations for peace have stalled and implies that the States could do more to facilitate progress. The States General's reply to the Emperor says that King Philip and Archduke Albert have not fully informed him and that the Spanish have continued to attempt to undermine the United Provinces by violence on land and at sea contrary to the agreements reached in Cologne.The pamphlet went through two editions which were issued with all three editions of the Nederlandtsche Bye-Korf between April and August 1608.With minor tears on or near the fold of the outer bifolium not approaching the text and slightly browned otherwise a very good copy.l Asher 26 27 or 28/33; Knuttel 1513; Simoni G 43; Tiele 716; OCLC WorldCat 5 copies. unknown

Worn original full leather binding boards detached. The Dutch family of Elzevier Elzevir; Elsevier were the foremost printers of their time. They produced a vast variety of well printed scholarly and popular books; many in a very small handy format. Louis Elzevier the founder of the firm produced his first book in Leiden in 1583. The 'golden age' of Elzevier printing was between 1620 and 1680. The Elzevier dynasty probably produced their last publication in 1770. Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus born Gaius Caecilius or Gaius Caecilius Cilo 61 c. 113 better known as Pliny the Younger was a lawyer author and magistrate of Ancient Rome. Pliny's uncle Pliny the Elder helped raise and educate him. Pliny the Younger wrote hundreds of letters of which 247 survive and are of great historical value. Some are addressed to reigning emperors or to notables such as the historian Tacitus. Pliny served as an imperial magistrate under Trajan and his letters to Trajan provide one of the few surviving records of the relationship between the imperial office and provincial governors.
