175221730London: A. Millar 1752. Very Good/No Dust Jacket As Issued. <br /> A significant mid-18th-century synthesis of Newtonian cosmology and Evangelical devotion. <br /> <br /> Moses Browne a pen-cutter turned clergyman under the influence of James Hervey utilized his 'Essay on the Universe' to harmonize the vastness of the physical 'Creation' with the structured spiritual life detailed in 'Sunday Thoughts.' Published by the influential Andrew Millar this volume represents the transition of British religious poetry from classical patronage toward the deeply personal observational piety that would eventually define the Olney circle. It captures a specific moment in the Georgian era where the 'Astrophil' of the Gentleman's Magazine successfully merged the scientific awe of the universe with the moral requirements of the Christian Sabbath.<br /> <br /> KEY FEATURES<br /> Visuals: Woodcut ornaments and initials. <br /> Binding: Period full calf; five raised spine bands; gilt-ruled spine with a contemporary title label. <br /> Content: Combines the first major revision of 'An Essay on the Universe' originally 1739 with the popular 'Sunday Thoughts' 1849. Features the 'Christian Sabbath' in three distinct parts. <br /> Imprint: A. Millar London. 1752. <br /> Specs: 16mo; xiv viii 2 240 pp.<br /> <br /> CONDITION - Overall Very Good. The Book: Binding is tight and square. Period calf shows light rubbing and a few minor scratches; the rear board has localized spotting from surface rubs. Internally the contents are excellent with clean text and only minimal light foxing or toning in isolated areas. <br /> Note: A small singular wormhole is present at the upper corner of the final leaves page 234 through the end not affecting text. A well-preserved and unsophisticated copy.<br /> <br /> SCHOLARLY FEATURES<br /> Cosmological Poetry: 'An Essay on the Universe' is a primary example of 18th-century didactic verse attempting to explain Newtonian physics and astronomy through a theological lens.<br /> Evangelical Lineage: Browne was the predecessor to John Newton as the Vicar of Olney; this work provides the early intellectual foundation for the Evangelical revival in the English Midlands.<br /> Publishing History: Printed by Andrew Millar the publisher of Fielding and Hume signaling the mainstream commercial appeal of Browne's devotional works by the mid-century. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -<br /> Moses Browne's trajectory from a struggling pen-cutter to a favored protégé of the Countess of Hertford is a classic Enlightenment success story. This 1752 collection was instrumental in securing his reputation eventually leading to his ordination. By framing the 'Universe' as a subject of both scientific and 'Sunday' contemplation Browne helped bridge the gap between the intellectual elites and the emerging Evangelical middle class setting the stage for the later hymnodal traditions of Cowper and Newton.<br /> <br /> SUBJECTS: 18th Century Poetry Newtonian Cosmology Evangelical History Christian Sabbath Moses Browne Olney History Poetry Devotional Literature 18th Century Printing.<br /> <br /> BIBLIOGRAPHIC REFERENCES: ESTC T83749; Foxon B521; Alston XIII 35; Northup 687.

1824HH5736Septimus Prowett 1824. ~Original quarter red morocco marbled paper to boards. Gilt lettering to smooth spines. Mild wear to spine edges. Mild rubbing to marbled paper on boards. Some wear to board edges especially corners. Small 4tos 19.8 x 28.8cm. Cracking at gutter after vol. I contents and around central gathering in vol. II. Endpapers uncracked at gutters. Mild offset browning and foxing to endpapers. Pencil inscription to blank front endpage of both vols. 40pp. 'Biographical Memoir' to start of vol. I. Unpaginated except for Memoir. Portrait frontis to vol. I by W. H. Worthington after F. X. Fabre. Over 100 engravings in outline by Henry Moses of Canova's works with tissue guards. Some edgewear to tissue guards. Foxing largely confined to tissue guards. These two volumes were first published in parts from 1823; this is the first edition in vols. Presumably the project was begun immediately after the death of the great neoclassical sculptor in October 1822. Isabella Teotochi Albrizzi 1760-1836 was a brilliant Venetian salonnière and a close friend of Canova; her Opere di scultura e di plastica di Antonio Canova from which the descriptions in these vols are translated was first published in 1809. Byron in an 1816 letter to his friend Thomas Moore described her as a 'very learned unaffected good-natured woman . She has written very well on the works of Canova'. Henry Moses 1781/2-1870 printmaker: Thomas Dodd in his biographical catalogue of English engravers described him as an 'eminent artist distinguished for the neatness and purity of outline' who attained 'the highest proficiency in the decorative and ornamental department of the arts' Dodd in ODNB. His lucid neoclassical engravings with their 'Flaxmanesque manner of etching outlines free from shading or modelling' ODNB are well-suited to depicting the works of Canova. These vols provide an early record of the relocation of several of Canova's works to England as spoils of the Napoleonic Wars notably the colossal statue of Napoleon himself recorded here as 'now in the possession of the Duke of Wellington' and still on display in Wellington's London residence Apsley House. A third volume of the Works of Canova again with engravings by Moses & translations of text by Albrizzi was first published in parts by Septimus Prowett in 1827. These vols are the earliest 2-volume version. Influential work in original binding. Vol.1 is sound VG. Vol.2 slightly shaken.~Robust packaging. All UK orders trackable others on request.
