Contemporary calf paneled in blind; spine elaborately tooled in gilt morocco lettering piece; dentelles; edges sprinkled in red. Mild wear at extremities; bookplate and old shelf marks at pastedown and endleaf; else an attractive copy with fine crisp text.<br /> <br /> Collation: 8 A-2E8 2F4 = 236 leaves.<br /> <br /> First Latin edition of this controversial work by Nektarios 1602/05-1676/85 the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem from 1661 to 1669 dedicated to Thomas Tenison the archbishop of Canterbury and King William III. Fabricius notes that Nektarios was born in Crete and educated at Athens under Theophilus Corydales. He was a strict partisan of Greek orthodoxy and endorsed the Confession of Mogilas in 1662. “During his patriarchate the Romish emissaries were very active in endeavoring to persuade the Greek Christians of Palestine… to unite with the Church of Rome; among them a Franciscan named Peter was especially active in distributing five tracts in defense of the papal authority. These tracts Nectarius answered by the publication of another entitled Peri tes arches tou Papa antirresis - On the Beginning of the Pope Antichrist which is a fair refutation of the five principles laid down in the Roman Catholic tracts†McClintock & Strong Cyclopedia 6:914. This refutation first appeared at Yassy in 1681 or 1682 and was later translated into the present Latin version by the eminent scholar and Huguenot refugee to England Pierre Allix 1641-1717. The conclusion of the text notes “Excusus per Metrophanem Hieromonachum Giazi Yassy in Moldavia A. MDCLXXII†-- the year of the Synod of Jerusalem which represented the climax of the Orthodox reaction against the heresies of Cyril Lucaris. Following the main text are two brief discussions of the Jesuits pp.385-406: De Jesuitis On the Jesuits; De Jesuita qui in Orientales nugas es mendacia effugiit On the Jesuits Who Spewed Falsehoods upon the Easterners. Dedication signed P. Allix.<br /> <br /> Provenance: Bookplate de-accession stamp Cathedral Library Ely where Allix’ son John Peter d. 1758 was dean. References: ESTC T115885. Graesse 4: 655.

192125752Boston: Roxburgh Publishing Company 1921. First Edition. Octavo. Blue cloth boards lettered in gilt on spine and front cover; 258pp. Slightly shaken; spine gilt dulled legible with difficulty; internally clean tight and unmarked. A solidly VG copy lacking the presumed dustwrapper. Extremely uncommon survey of vice and crime in the Windy City presented as an exercise in "psychopathology" but written in a flat hard-boiled style by the enigmatic "Prince Immanuel of Jerusalem" whose true identity is shrouded in mystery. This pseudonym turns up in a number of unexpected locations: as a steerage immigrant to California in 1909 where he is described as "the son of the Sultan of Turkey and an Arabian Jewess" and is apparently seeking to raise funds for the construction of a "Universal University" on the site of King Solomon's Temple see The Lompoc California Journal for Jan 3 1909; as the headmaster of an institution called the "University College of Africa" in Cairo Egypt ca. 1917 see Hill The Marcus Garvey and Universal Negro Improvement Papers v.11 p.769n; and as the creator of an invented language "Universal" ca. 1914 see Okrent In the Land of Invented Languages p.296. In the first two sources he is identified as "I.E. Goldreich" and "Eleasar Isaac Goldreich" respectively and he appears to have been a one-time British citizen. He was responsible for at least two other published works: Postcards of Palestine Cairo ca 1912 and Chaos: Written for the Illiterati Columbia City IN: 1947.
