"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.

Durel 1625-1683 an Anglican clergyman and apologist enjoyed a distinguished career and royal favor securing a printing monopoly on this French prayer book and eventually becoming a royal chaplain in 1662.

The Psalms included here have a separate titlepage dated 1686 and register though their inclusion is noted on the initial title-page.

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.

Edition originale du premier essai philosophique du jeune Diderot, illustrée de 2 planches gravées hors texte, 1 fleuron et 2 vignettes de Durand gravés par Fessard. "Cet exercice auquel se livra Diderot sur un original anglais fut davantage une paraphrase qu'une traduction. C'est un travail fort important pour saisir l'évolution de sa pensée. Il s'agissait de 'An Inquiry concerning Virtue and Merit de Lord Shaftesbury' (...). Il y avait quelque danger à présenter au public français, un ouvrage qui affirmait aussi franchement l'existence d'une morale naturelle, indépendant des sanctions d'une religion ou d'une Eglise données" (Wilson, ‘Diderot’, p. 44). Sur cet ouvrage capital "pour saisir l'évolution de la pensée de Diderot", cf. A. Wilson, p. 43 sq. et Venturi, 'La jeunesse de Diderot', passim. 2 feuillets de table manquent en fin. Quelques petites rousseurs et auréoles claires. (Adams, PY1. Cohen, 306. Tchemerzine-Scheler, II, 916). Très bon exemplaire, grand de marges (164 x 105 mm), bien relié.
