Robert Molesworth, First Viscount Molesworth (1656-1725) was an Anglo-Irish politician and ardent Whig writer whose An Account of Denmark as it was in the Year 1692 (first published in 1694) became famous among the American revolutionists for its demonstration that the liberty of a people is dependent upon their vigilance in preserving it. Molesworth's tract on Denmark represented an early form of comparative political analysis at a time when political science was just emerging as a discipline. Molesworth, an ardent British Whig, served as the British ambassador to the Court of Denmark from 1689 to 1692, during which time he composed his fervent attack on the Danish absolutism initiated by Danish King Frederick III. His objective was to show how the subversion of constitutional liberties rendered an otherwise free government despotic, and he used his experience in Denmark as a case study. Molesworth argued that the absolutist corruption he observed in Denmark poisoned the commonwealth just as a disease sickens the body, and that by diagnosing and comparing the symptoms, a people may properly treat and avoid the harmful results. In furtherance of his analysis, Molesworth would later publish (in 1711) an English translation of Francis Hotoman's Franco-Gallia (originally published in Latin in 1574), which traced the loss of liberties in France as a result of the crown's usurpation of power. Both works therefore warned against incremental encroachments upon liberty and authority. Similarly, the British diplomat and Swedish envoy John Robinson (1650-1723) wrote his An Account of Sueden Together with an Extract of the History of that Kingdom to challenge the subjugation of the Swedish peoples by their king and the confiscation of their property through the use of force, bribery, and coercion. Robinson's Account of Sueden was first published by Timothy Goodwin in 1694 shortly after the publication of the third edition of Molesworth's Account of Denmark, and Goodwin published the tract anonymously and without Robinson's authorization. Goodwin defended his publication by emphasizing in his introduction that since "several copies of it were got abroad, I considered it might at last chance to come forth in Print less Correct than at present I undertake to give it to the World, whom I pretend to oblige by a very Accurate Edition." Goodwin concludes by expressing his hopes that the author (Robinson) "will not be offended at this Undertaking, since 'tis likely 'twould have been published by others, not so well to his Advantage." Goodwin included in his publication of the Account of Sueden an advertisement for the recently printed third edition of Molesworth's Account of Denmark; and he would later include an advertisement for the Account of Sueden in his 1711 publication of Franco-Gallia. This exceptional book assembles all three works with Goodwin's advertisements. Molesworth's Account of Denmark was popularly held and studied in Revolutionary America, and all three works would exert a profound influence on the defense of freedom in Europe and America at the turn of the nineteenth century.

Description:
LONDON: J Wilcox , 1732 First edition of Coker's Survey of Dorsetshire - with the original county map and 6 copper plates of Arms as called for. Stated to have been written originally by Thomas Gerrard in the 1620's and then first published by Coker in 1732. In contemporary full leather binding with newer spine with gilt titles. With title page; dedication 1p; folding map of Dorsetshire; text with decorative head and tailpieces and initial capitals 128pp; Names of Persons/plate listing 4pp; 6 plates of Arms; Index 16pp; blank. The original leather boards have wear to corners and the newer spine (which is of poorer quality leather) has fraying at the top and bottom and some wear along the spine joints - particularly the front joint. The contents are very clean and in good order with just the occasional mark. The map has a crease from poor folding but is complete and clean. The endpapers have some marking and the front endpaper has not been repaired along the joint when the new spine was added.

Description:
London: John Wright , 1652 A good copy of the 'Third Impression much Augmented' in full leather binding with new spine with raised bands and title label and contemporary boards. Blith (1604-1654) was known as a writer on husbandry. He was a supporter of Cromwell as the decorative title page with the motto 'Vive La Re Publick.' demonstrates. The book sets out and promotes improvements in husbandry and was suppressed after the Restoration in 1660. The binding is sound and clean. There is a lot of wear and leather loss at the corners. The marbled endpapers look to have had repair and are probably predate the binding work. The contents have toning and there has been some close trimming to margins notable in the epistles section at the beginning where page titles are missing but there is no loss to text. There is the signature of Philip Styles to the initial blank and a signature of Tho Wilkins, 1683 to the recto of the decorative title - possibly (although could be another Wilkins) repeated at the side of…

Description:
1537 1ed Orthodox Saint John Chrysostom On the Priesthood + Brixius MarburgA rare 16th-century printing of works of John Chrysostom. Chrysostom was one of the most important Early Christian Church authors and preachers and is most remembered for his sermons and homilies. He preached on many different subjects, but his most frequented topic was helping the needy. Chrysostom calls for followers of Jesus to set aside their material desires to help the poor, often in a way that shamed the rich and guilted them in to giving.
"Do you pay such honor to your excrements as to receive them into a silver chamber-pot when another man made in the image of God is perishing in the cold?" (Chrysostom in Liebeschuetz)
One of his most important treatises was 'On the Priesthood' in which he describes his experiences becoming a priest and living as a priest. Interestingly, this work was popular during his lifetime as he made references to it in his other works.

Fourth complete edition. A-Z6, Aa-Zz6, Aaa-Hhh6, Iii8. This copy is bound in modern full calf. Richard Hooker:
"The adventures of this text [The Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity] are among the strangest in literary history. The first four books were published in March 1593. The fifth followed in December 1597. In 1604 Dr. Spenser, President of Corpus Christi, Oxford, in a new edition of the Polity, stated that Hooker had finished the three further books he intended: that certain persons had rifled Hooker's study after his death, abstracted the fair copies and left only 'unperfect and mangled draughts;' from which draughts, nevertheless, 'there is a purpose' of publishing the best text now possible. After this, nearly forty years of silence. Then in 1648 we have an edition containing Books VI and… Read More
