164024189<p><strong>1640 Thomas Cranmer 1ed 39 Articles Henry VIII English Reformation Legum RARE</strong></p><p>An extremely important first edition of '<em>Reformatio Legum Ecclesiasticarum'</em> a work on ecclesiastical law when Henry VIII initiated the English Reformation and separation of the Church of England from the Catholic Church and papal rule. Thomas Cranmer was closely tied to the king both politically and as a friend and was an important figure in the development of this work. This work established laws and regulations for the church including prayer music testimony excommunication judicial cases and political ties to the church. Other topics covered in this work involved domestic disputes such as divorce as well as more controversial topics including calling nonconformity to the church 'superstitions and idolatrous'. Hawkins II 537.</p><p>This 1640 reworking of the '<em>Thirty Nine Articles'</em> was translated out of the original English and into Latin by John Cheke and in 1553 was reportedly published in the name of King Henry VIII. This translation was the beginning of what would lead to Thomas Cranmer's being burned alive. Much of the contents of this compilation was used by John Foxe in his portrayal of Cranmer in his '<em>Book of Martyrs'</em>.</p><p>According to the British Museum Catalogue this work is</p><p>"A code of ecclesiastical law intended for use in the Church of England but never ratified by Parliament. Drawn up in 1552 by Commissioners headed by Thomas Cranmer. Edited with the later additions and amendments of Matthew Parker by John Fox the martyrologist." </p><p>Item number: #24189</p><p>Price: $599</p><p>Church of England</p><p><strong><em>Reformatio legum ecclesiasticarum : ex authoritate primum Regis Henrici 8. inchoata deinde per Regem Edovardum 6. provecta adauctaÌque in hunc modum atque nunc ad pleniorem ipsarum reformationem in lucem edita.</em></strong></p><p>Londini : Typis T.H. & R.H. impensis Laurentii Sadler 1640.</p><p><u>Details</u>: </p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Collation: Complete with all pages</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->o <!--endif-->16 303 1</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->References: STC 6008; Hawkins <em>General History of Science and Practice of Music</em>; </p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Language: Latin</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Binding: Vellum; tight and secure</p><p><!-- if !supportLists-->· <!--endif-->Size: ~7.5in X 6in 19cm x 15cm</p><p>Our Guarantee:</p><p>Very Fast.

"The Eikon Basilike.The Pourtraicture of His Sacred Majestie in His Solitudes and Sufferings is a purported spiritual autobiography attributed to King Charles I of England. It was published on 9 February 1649 ten days after the King was beheaded by Parliament in the aftermath of the English Civil War in 1649. Written in a simple moving and straightforward style in the form of a diary the book combines irenic prayers urging the forgiveness of Charles's executioners with a justification of royalism and the King's political and military programme that led to the Civil War." -- Wikipedia.

"A revised text completed before 1665 retained much of Delaune's original but incorporated changes embodied in the Act of Uniformity and Durel's translation of the Thirty-Nine Articles; it was published eight times between 1666 and 1695" - DNB. The Psalms included here have a separate titlepage dated 1686 and register though their inclusion is noted on the initial title-page.

Good or better complete copies of both works.<br /> <br /> Early edition of what still remains the authoritative version of the Book of Common Prayer comprising the official liturgy of the Anglican Communion and other historically related Christian churches. The first prayer book published in the wake of the English Reformation appeared in 1549 during the reign of Edward VI. That work was revised in 1604 during the reign of James I and again in 1662 during the reign of Charles II. While revision and supplementation has continued into the present era the 1662 edition of which the present copy is essentially an early reprint remains authoritative as the official prayer book of the Church of England.<br /> <br /> Despite the discrepancy in dates which appear on the title pages of the present edition the Book of Common Prayer and the Psalms of David comprise a single publication as noted at the collective title and confirmed by the signatures. The metrical Psalms by Sternhold and Hopkins often bound with the Book of Common Prayer is a separate work. <br /> <br /> Provenance: Bookplate of the Royal Institution of South Wales noting the gift of Col.

Added engraved title page signed by Romeyn de Hooghe dated 1691. 12 full-page etchings signed by de Hooghe that depict festival constructions for Williams entry into The Hague in 1691 and also portraits of William and Mary among other emblems.

First Edition in French of this biography of William III of England extensively illustrated to show important events in the monarchs life. This work was privately printed for Nicolas Chevalier who was a hobbyist and coin collector. A large proportion of Dutch print-making at the end of the 17th century focused on William III. An almost categorical personality cult surrounded the stadtholder-king. Among the print-makers Romeyn de Hooghe 1645-1708 was an important and prolific late Dutch Baroque engraver and caricaturist. He is best known for his political caricatures of Louis XIV and propagandistic prints supporting William of Orange. De Hooghes 12 etchings of triumphal arches for this work are adaptations of plates in the works by Bidloo and Tronchin de Breuil published in 1691 and 1692. Adriaen Schoonebeek c. 1657- 1705 is often mentioned because of his appearance as witness for the prosecution in a court case against de Hooghe that formed the climax of a slanderous exchange of pamphets between Orangists and members of the Amsterdam faction in 1690. These animosities did not prevent re- employment of both engravers in executing plates for this Nicolas Chevaliers 1692 illustrated volume on numismatics and the life of King William. Rare.

1649402219London: printed by John Grismond for Richard Royston 1649. 12mo 165 x 95 mm; 6½ x 3¾ inches. Engraved double-page portrait by William Marshall. Early 20th-century half calf marbled boards all edges gilt by Zaehnsdorf. Light wear to extremities; a few occasional pale stains lacks terminal blank generally fresh. FIRST EDITION third state with correct pagination in quire G. Originally attributed to Charles I the bibliographer Falconer Madan believes it was written by John Gauden who probably included some authentic writings of the king. Though the title-page reads 1648 it was published on 9 February 1649 ten days after the king was beheaded in the aftermath of the English Civil War. The famous allegorical frontispiece by William Marshall depicts Charles I as a Christian martyr. The work was so successful in its portrayal of the king that at the Restoration a special commemoration of the king on 30 January was added to the Book of Common Prayer. Charles I is the only saint formally canonized by the Church of England. ESTC R10559; Madan 1c; Wing E270. . <br/><br/> [printed by John Grismond for Richard Royston] hardcover books
