CONDITION: Bound in full leather these editions are very worn with discoloration chipping cracking to hinges though boards are present and still fragilely attached and headcaps and several headbands are missing. Volume 3's headband is exposed. Bookworm tunneling is evidenced within the leather covers. Spine bears five raised bands stamped in worn gilt lettering lining and gilt-tooled decoration which shows signs of erosion and some inner binding is exposed at the spines. Endpapers are plain with leather erosion to the binding at the pastedowns. The textblock is "very good". Printed on laid paper pages have fairly-evenly toned but bear foxing some offsetting occasional dampstains and discoloration throughout. Some occasional marginalia is seen particularly within the front and back endpapers and presumably from the period. A number of pages have been crinkled and creased at the edges also mainly within the front and back pages. Several minor dark mold dotting at the front corners of Volume 2's first several pages amidst a dampstain along with several tears throughout. All edges show toning scratching and discoloration. Even as these editions are only in "fair" condition with many flaws the text remains completely legible and easily readable and the vintage 1800's-feel is palpable and even distinguished. Due to the size and weight of these volumes at nearly 10 lbs. additional postage may be required. Additional photos available upon request. Full refund if not satisfied.

The section Statuta Bibliothecae Bodleianae is of special interest to book people though the notes on disturbing the peace and de nocturna Vagatione cannot but please the Latinate. Â Â Â Â That this is a volume of "selections" is trumpeted on the title-page. However both usefully for the seeker of context and at points confusingly for the actual reader its table of contents seems to be not for what's present as selected but for the text in full extent so the table announces for example that "Titulus XVII" comprises nine sections and lists these even unto the subsections though the body of the book itself sets forth sections five and six only. Â Â Â Â The title-page offers a handsome vignette of the Theatre not one of the commonest ones. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â ESTC T118673; Madan Oxford Books 17. Period-style calf framed and panelled in blind with blind-tooled corner fleurons and rather elaborate additional decorations in blind; spine with gilt-stamped title and publication information and different blind-tooled decorations. Endpapers a little smudged and title-page mounted with edges darkened. Early inked ownership inscription in upper margin of first text page mostly torn away with loss of a few words. Pp. 22730 lacking being the last bit of the printing of the Church of England's 39 Articles and the first part of the section "De Eligendis Publicis Lectoribus."

MODERN PAINTERS 1843-1860 is a five-volume work by the eminent Victorian art critic John Ruskin begun when he was 24 years old based on material collected in Switzerland in 1842.1 Ruskin argues that recent painters emerging from the tradition of the picturesque are superior in the art of landscape to the old masters. The book was primarily written as a defence of the later work of J. M. W. Turner. Ruskin used the book to argue that art should devote itself to the accurate documentation of nature. In Ruskin's view Turner had developed from early detailed documentation of nature to a later more profound insight into natural forces and atmospheric effects. In this way Modern Painters reflects "Landscape and Portrait-Painting" 1829 in The Yankee by American art critic John Neal by distinguishing between "things seen by the artist" and "things as they are". Ruskin added later volumes in subsequent years. Volume two 1846 placed emphasis on symbolism in art expressed through nature. The second volume was influential on the early development of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. He produced three more volumes with the fifth and final volume appearing in 1860. The fifth volume marked the end of the formational and important part of Ruskin's life in which his father had a great influence. SCARCE as a uniform SET. Please note: Heavy volumes.

[ University of Oxford; General Election of 1852; William Ewart Gladstone; Robert Bullock Marsham, Warden of Merton College; RevBiblio.com

Oxford Gladstone Marsham and the General Election of 1852. Spoof in the form of a printed circular from 'Mrs. Harris' Commemoration Advertiser' with a variety of in-jokes poking fun at the University.

20018Printed for the Authoress" University of Oxford. 1852. . A lively Oxford spoof which can be dated precisely from the references to Marsham Gladstone and the coming General Election. In the General Election of July 1852 the Peelite Gladstone defeated the Conservative Marsham who had been put forward by 'the heads Protestants and protectionists'. A reference to German education is a nod towards the first Oxford University Commission whose report published in 1852 recommended that a switch to a more Germanic educational system. For the background see Brock and Curthoys 'History of the University of Oxford' vol. 6 1997. Printed in black on one side of a 31 x 19 cm. piece of wove paper. In fair condition lightly aged and worn. An announcement in the customary Victorian style of mixed typefaces and point sizes with a series of 'advertisements' printed one above the other. At bottom right: 'Printed for the Authoress.' Begins: 'Mrs. Harris' Commemoration Advertiser The Perfect Substitute for Reform. The Abolition of Dons: A single Trial will convince the most incredulous. The Metaphysical Syphonia Or invisible Wrapper warranted Reason proof and weighs nothing. Apply to the Marines. Il n'y a pas de prix fixe.' A number of quips follow including a dig at 'the Proctors' a list of five 'Candidates for vacant Professorships' the last: 'Practical Electioneering . All the Fellows of Ln.' a fake advertisement for a new book titled 'The Freshman's Vade-Mecum'. The next section refers to the recommendation of the Oxford University Commission that the University follow the German mode of education: 'A Professor Not unequal as he trusts to the educational requirements of the 19th Century has a vacancy for One Pupil. He engages that in six months his fond parents shall not know him from a GERMAN STUDENT. N.B. Duelling extra.' Next there is another spoof advertisement for a book this one titled 'Weathercockiana or the Gladstone of the Future.' Then there comes: 'PRIZE ESSAY Open to all Masters of Arts who have not Graduated in Honours; and to be awarded when Dr. Marsham is returned for the University â€œOn the best means of reconciling the Duties of a Head of a House with those of a Member of Parliament.â€' A couple more joke announcements end the spoof. Presumably "Mrs Harris" is inspired by the non-appearing character in Dickens' "Martin Chuzzlewit". From the papers of Rev. Dr Richard Harington Principal of Brasenose College Oxford.

Rev Richard Harington DD (1800-1853), Principal of Brasenose College, Oxford; Rev Richard Jones, Secretary of the Royal CommissiBiblio.com

Royal Commission on Cathedrals 1853 Signed Copy of long Autograph Letter from Rev. Dr Richard Harington Principal of Brasenose College responding to circular letter signed by Richard Jones Secretary. With printed 'copy of the Commission'.

19993All three items from 1853. Harington's letter from Brasenose College Oxford. Jones's circular letter from Cathedral Commission 1 Parliament Street Whitehall London. Three items in fair condition lightly aged and worn. Harington's 28-page letter is a significant assessment by a senior member of the university of the situation in the period immediately preceding the Oxford University Act of 1854. ONE: Signed Autograph Copy of Letter from 'Richd Harington' to 'The Rev. R. Jones'. Brasenose College Oxford. 28pp. foolscap 8vo. On seven bifoliums of grey paper. Deletions and emendations throughout. Writing in response to Item Two below Harington offers his own 'observations' 'under the impression that the Commissioners desire to collect the individual opinions of Members of this University'. He begins: 'Besides the instruction supplied to all the Undergraduates by the Tutors of their respective Colleges the special provision for Theological teaching in the University comprises the Regius and Margaret Professorships of Divinity and the recently founded Professorships of Pastoral Theology of Ecclesiastical History and of the Exegesis of Holy Scripture to which may be added the Regius Professorship of Hebrew. These Institutions would I apprehend be considered by most persons as sufficient to supply to those who are in a condition to avail themselves of the means of instruction which they afford all that is wanted for the preparation of Candidates for Holy Orders and if full advantage be taken of them nothing more would seem to be required for the assistance of Theological Students in the University.' Later he refers to 'the extensive and powerful Machinery for the training of Students in Theology which is in actual operation in this University'. He proceeds to discuss what he sees as the failure of the 'Voluntary Examination in Theology' introduced by the University in 1842 concluding that 'the paucity of the candidates who have presented themselves for the examination proves nothing but that in general they have been indifferent to the personal distinction of passing such an ordeal'. He considers the question whether 'the recent and growing extension of Theological Study in this University may be ascribed as its voluntary character would seem to indicate to an increased and increasing desire on the part of candidates for Holy Orders to qualify themselves for the more efficient discharge of their sacred function'. Another question dealt with by Harington is whether 'Bishops have been disinclined to enforce attendance on the course of Theological Study indicated by the Statute of 1842 on account of the additional residence at Oxford which such attendance would require'. Other topics include 'the systematic training of Theological Students in the University'; 'University Professorships' and 'the Theological ability and learning of the Church of England'; whether 'the Universities are in a condition to furnish a guarantee for uniformity in religious teaching which probably could not be obtained from an aggregate of Cathedral Colleges'; the 'Constitution of the Universities'; whether the universities are 'too exclusively exponents of the principle of Stability'; the views of the Rev. C. Herbert Rector of Burslem on 'clerical education'; 'the standard of public opinion among he Students' in 'a great University'; the 'value and importance of an Academical degree'; 'those whose circumstances have hitherto excluded them from participation in the benefits of an education at the University'; whether 'the institution of Theological Colleges in Cathedral Churches would be the best means of improving the training and education of the future Clergy'; and the possibility of requiring 'each Chapter … to provide in proportion to the magnitude of its resources a certain number of Theological Scholarships or Exhibitions to be held at any College in either University by Students of a certain standing'. TWO: Printed circular letter signed by 'Rd. Jones' Secretary Cathedral Commission Whitehall. 29 June 1853. 1p. foolscap 8vo. On forwarding 'a copy of the Commission' i.e. Item Three below Jones has been instructed by the commissioners to request 'the opinion and advice of your University on the following subject. Two of the Canonries of Christ Church having been annexed in the reign of King Charles 1st. to Professorships devoted to the promotion of Theological learning to which three more have been added recently one of them with especial reference to the duties of the Pastoral Office; - The Commissioners are desirous of ascertaining the opinion of the University and of the Professors as to whether the Theological lectures in the University may be considered as supplying all that is wanted for the preparation of Candidates for Holy Orders or whether it will be desirable to institute Theological Colleges in connexion with some of the Cathedral Churches.' THREE: Printed copy of the 'Commission for Inquiring into the State of the Cathedral and Collegiate Churches in England and Wales and matters connected therewith.' Signed in type by 'S. H. Walpole.' 3pp. foolscap 8vo. Bifolium on grey paper. In small pseudo-copperplate type headed with the name 'Victoria R.' beneath the royal coat of arms. Enquiring after ways in which 'Cathedral and Collegiate Churches may be rendered more available for promoting the high and holy purposes for which they were founded and for further extending the efficiency and usefulness of the Established Church'. Note: No other copies of the prinetd items have yet been traced COPAC etc. All three items from 1853. Harington's letter from Brasenose College, Oxford. Jones's circular letter from Cathedral Commission, unknown
