An early effort to teach language through dialogue the book is part cultural history part guide to better health and it is clear evidence of the importance of the study of Italian in Elizabethan and Jacobean England. The seven dialogues cover subjects from health to travel to servants with Italian and English text on facing pages. Many of the dialogues begin with phrases that will be familiar to all beginning language students: greeting others selecting items of clothing asking prices or directions ordering food. As the conversations progress they explore various topics that one might expect to encounter in polite society. An early morning exchange between master and servant evolves into a discussion of the importance of sleep the optimal amount of sleep for good health and the significance of dreams. A dialogue that begins with ordering meals leads to an involved colloquy about the benefits and disadvantages of fasting and abstinence; the virtues and defects of bread butter meat dairy and eggs; diet recommendations for the healthy and the sick; the best diet for each season; and the importance of a walk after dinner. Other dialogues include advice for travellers observations on the political situation and life at court and finally a discussion of that most eternally fascinating topic: love. This work is of continuing interest and value to linguists as it documents the Benevento Italian dialect which is in need of preservation. It's an extraordinarily rare book probably because it was the sort of volume subjected to hard use: in addition to ours we could trace only two copies in ABPC and RBH since 1948. printed by T[homas].

1604045016Ambrosium & Hieronymum Drouart 1604. Second Edition. Hardcover Full Leather. Very Good Condition. 5 volumes bound in 9 in contemporary calf. Worn at the edges and corners spines a little dry but intact and attractive overall. Volume 1 with a single title page some copies were apparently bound with a second title page noting Estienne the publisher of the Folio edition. Old bookplates inside covers ownership marks and stamps to titles and first pages occasionally trimmed a little close on the top edge just touching the running title scattered minor pencil marks light dampstain to the corners of a section of vol vii but otherwise clean and a very good set overall. This is the second edition of Thou's history published 1604-1608 and the first octavo edition. It was published just after the Folio edition a few months after for the first volumes and almost simultaneously thereafter. The first two octavo volumes corresponding to the first folio volume and printed in 1604 identified here as Pars I and Partis Primae Tomus II is bound in four volumes as is the second volume published in two octavo volumes in 1606 and corresponding to the Folio volume also published in 1606. They are identified as Tomus Secundi Pars Prima and Tomi Secundi Pars altera. The final volume identified as Libri VI is bound in one and published in 1608 the Folio edition was published in 1607-8. Because Thou was editing and changing his systems of identification as he published the books the naming system is a little odd - this final volume follows the third and fourth octavo volumes and not the first two in how it is numbered. 1005pp index; 1013 index; 958 index; 886 index; 501 privilege index.

As a result and despite some minor changes from the first edition all of the later books dealing with the wars of religion and other topics ended up on the Index Librorum Prohibitorum in 1609.

Front pastedown with bookplate of the Fox Pointe Collection. Wing P-2842B; ESTC R207754. ◆Text lightly washed and pressed but still crisp faint foxing to lower edge of title page otherwise a fine fresh copy in an unworn binding.<br/> <br/> Written by an opinionated English cleric this is an extraordinarily rare pamphlet proposing an unusual fund to support young 17th century scholars. According to DNB the scheme outlined in the present work was meant "to support the university studies of young men of promise seeking entry into the ministry." The plan "was approved by John Worthington and Anthony Tuckney and had the support also of John Arrowsmith DD Ralph Cudworth William Dillingham DD and Benjamin Whichcote. The fund raised about £900 and it appears that William Sherlock afterwards dean of St Paul's received assistance from this fund during his studies at Peterhouse Cambridge until 1660 when he graduated BA. Those entrusted with administering the fund sent Poole regular reports on students interviewed and the ratings they had received in philosophy logic and languages. The scheme was abandoned at the Restoration." Poole 1624 - 79 was the author of a number of controversialist pamphlets on subjects ranging from Unitarianism to preaching by lay persons before undertaking his major work: a synthesis of critical biblical commentaries "Synopsis criticorum aliorumque sacrae scripturae interpretum." This is one of his scarcest writings: ESTC lists seven copies two in North America while ABPC and RBH record just two copies at auction. s.n. Printed Anno Domini unknown

1642101095<p>London: Allen in Popes head Alley October 6 1642. 1642. Fair. - Octavo 8-3/8 inches high by 6 inches wide. Softcover printed self-wrappers removed from a larger collection of pamphlets in the distant past with stab holes along the left edge. Pages 1-25 24-31 34-35 34-35 and 38-60. The pamphlet is disbound and the pages are detached but present. There is underlining throughout. There is some occasional damp staining. Some of the corners and edges of the pages are chipped. The pamphlet is complete and collates with Wing P3893.</p><p>RARE. First edition. "The Aphorismes of the Kingdom" Thomason E.24026 and "The Commission of Array" Thomason E.24027.</p><p>The Thomason catalog is a collection of approximately 22000 books and pamphlets made by the London bookseller George Thomason between 1661 and 1662 documenting the political struggles between Parliament and the Crown during the Civil Wars Revolution and Restoration. An annotation on the Thomason copy reads "Printed 6 October 1642 at London by Allen in Popes head alley". The Allen referred to is undoubtedly the London bookseller & printer Benjamin Allen who was active from 1631 until his death in 1646. Located in Popes head Alley he published much of the political and theological literature of the period.</p><p>In the lead up to the first English Civil War Charles I and the parliament clashed over control of the armed forces. The King revived the medieval "Commission of Array" forcing local lords to raise troops for the Royal cause. This pamphlet is often attributed to Willam Prynne 1600-1669 who had been freed from prison in 1640. His persecution by the government of King Charles I and the Church of England escalated the antagonisms between the King and Parliament in the years preceding the English Civil Wars.</p><p>This anti-Royalist pamphlet is also anti-Church. The concluding pages 55-60 titled "Englands Tragedie" compare the antagonism between Parliament and the King to the "War in Heaven" as described in Revelation 12.</p> [London: Allen in Popes head Alley, October 6], [1642.] paperback
