Contemporary calf worn front cover off some browning and spotting generally light and marginal endpapers browned front free endpaper loose. Third edition. 1 vols. 8vo. Secret History of the University of Oxford. Amhurst was expelled from Oxford in 1719 supposedly for his "libertinism and misconduct" but he attributed it to the university's dislike of his "persistent Whig principles and of his openly expressed hatred of toryism and of the extreme high-church party" DNB. In revenge or response he began this work as a periodical paper which appeared twice-weekly from January 11 to 6 July 1721. It is a satire on the university and university life and quite humorous in its depiction of early 18th century university life. Printed for R. Francklin unknown books

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.<br>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.<br>Â Â Â Â The title-page offers a handsome vignette of the Theatre not one of the commonest ones. <br>Â Â Â Â <br>Â Â Â Â ESTC T118673; Madan Oxford Books 17.

18006060<p>Drawn by E. Dayes. Engraved by James Basire. J. Cole Cal. Sc. The sheet measures 57 x 68.5 cm; the plate measures 50 x 56 cm; the image is 45 x 31.5 cm. Edges untrimmed small tears in the margins. Duty ink stamp in the lower right margin. Generally fresh and excellent.<br /><br /></p><p>A full-sheet Oxford Almanack for the year 1800 with lists of the kings of England starting from William the Conqueror and of the officers of the university. It is illustrated with an etching designed by Edward Dayes 1763-1804 and executed by James Basire 1730-1802. The text was engraved by James Cole active from 1764-80.<br /></p><p>The Oxford sheet almanacks were issued yearly from 1676 until 1946. To quote Petter "The value of a yearly series of illustrations such as the almanacks provide is that in them a single unbroken thread reveals the trends of development and illustrates with precision the history of art" Petter <i>The Oxford Almanack</i> 1674-1946 p. 14.</p><p>The etching depicts the Sheldonian Theatre in the middle the Clarendon Building that housed the Oxford printing house until 1830 to the left and the Ashmolean Museum now the Museum of the History of Science to the right. Dayes may have based his design on one of John Donowell's Oxford views published in 1755.</p><p>James Basire in charge of the almanacks from 1797 to 1814 came from a family of prominent engravers. He is best known for apprenticing the young William Blake. Edward Dayes a pupil of William Pether was a painter and engraver whose influence can be seen in the early drawings of J. M. W. Turner.</p><p> Petter <i>The Oxford Almanack 1674-1946</i> 1946 pp. 15 39 41. OCLC: 1062032770. "Basire James" and "Dayes Edward" in ODNB.</p>
