Abraham Cowley 1618-1667 English poet and royalist agent. Achieving remarkable poetic success in his youth Cowley's life was somewhat interrupted by the tumultuous 1640s. An avowed royalist after his eviction from Trinity College Cambridge he pinned his fortunes to the King's cause. Following the court to Paris after defeat at Marston Moor Cowley served as a secretary and agent to Queen Henrietta Maria's court-in-exile from 1644-54 a position terminated only by his arrest during a mission to England. The first collected edition of Cowley's poetry arranged following his release from Cromwell's custody appeared in 1656 and contained his Mistress Pindarique Odes and epic life of King David Davideis in addition to an extensive selection of miscellaneous early verse. Subsequent printings as here appearing after the Restoration would include his 'A Discourse by way of Vision Concerning the Government of Oliver Cromwell' a meditation spurred by the death of the reviled Protector.

Burgundiae inferiorisquae ducatus nomine censetur des. 1584. - Cum Privilegio imperiali et Belgico ad Decennjum

161218807Antwerp: Juan Baptist Vrients 1612. Other. In excellent condition. 375 by 458mm 14 by 18 inches. Original antique copper engraving published 1612 in the famous Italian text edition of the" Theatrum Orbis Terrarum published by Juan Baptist Vrients in Antwerp. An early and decorative map of the duchy of Burgundy in France by Abraham Ortelius published and printed from 1584 for the first time onwards. Ortelius was born on 14 April 1527 in the city of Antwerp which was then in the Habsburg Netherlands modern-day Belgium. The Orthellius family were originally from Augsburg a Free imperial city of the Holy Roman Empire. In 1535 the family had fallen under suspicion of Protestantism. Following the death of Ortelius's father his uncle Jacobus van Meteren returned from religious exile in England to take care of Ortelius. Abraham remained close to his cousin Emanuel van Meteren who would later moved to London. In 1575 he was appointed geographer to the king of Spain Philip II on the recommendation of Arias Montanus who vouched for his orthodoxy. He travelled extensively in Europe and is specifically known to have traveled throughout the Seventeen Provinces; in southern western northern and eastern Germany e.g. 1560 15751576; France 15591560; England and Ireland 1576; and Italy 1578 and perhaps twice or thrice between 1550 and 1558. Beginning as a map-engraver in 1547 he entered the Antwerp Guild of Saint Luke as an illuminator of maps. He supplemented his income trading in books prints and maps and his journeys included yearly visits to the Frankfurt book and print fair where he met Gerardus Mercator in 1554. In 1560 however when travelling with Mercator to Trier Lorraine and Poitiers he seems to have been attracted largely by Mercator's influence towards the career of a scientific geographer.
