Description:
Nuremberg (In Jmperiali ciuitate Nurembergensi): Höltzel, 1503. First Edition. Bound in blind tooled 19th century calf, very nice. Wolf Traut, Full-page woodcut on verso of title: an excellent impression showing a beardless St Jerome (with lion!) in the wilderness. Wolf Traut clearly worked closely with several Nuremberg publishers and the names of Johann Weissenburger and Hieronymus Höltzel recur. The earliest woodcuts to be attributed to him are for this volume published in 1503. Balthasar was a monk in Pforta, was enrolled at the theological faculty in Leipzig in the winter semester of 1483 - probably after studying Artes Liberales. He passed the usual exams (Cursor 1485, Sententiar 1486, Licentiate 1487, Doctor 1496) and was first mentioned on January 13th, 1486 as provisional officer of the Bernhard Kolleg in Leipzig (probably until 1498/99, last mentioned 1496). In 1488 he established a full philosophical chair for the Cistercians in Leipzig, where, in addition to his theological lectures at…

It is generally believed that the book originally began with "A treatise on religion" said to have been suppressed by order of Archbishop Laud. Grosart thinks the missing pages were prefatory matter containing a life of the author "with fuller details of his murder than his friends cared to let the world read" as stated in Biographia Britannica. cf. Memorial-introd. in Grosart's edition of Brooke's works, 1870,…

London: John Day, 1578. ESTC S113382. STC 2nd ed. 18728. See: Foster Watson, The English Grammar Schools to 1660: Their Curriculum and Practice, 2019. This (says Ames) is a curiously printed book, equal to the Stephens', and has the same coat of arms at the end [lacking in this copy], as the Catechism of 1577 ... Herbert has been entirely indebted to Ames for his description of this rare little bo. London: John Day, 1578. 8vo. Collation: A-Q8 (lacking two leaves: Q7-8 at end containing final portion of Latin text, Errata and John Day's coat of arms). Text in Greek and Latin on facing pages.

Contemporary vellum, traces of two alum-tawed leather ties at the fore-edge, later MS lettering on spine.

This is bound in full modern calf over wooden boards in an antique style, it is a very nice copy with annotations on every page. The Augsburg Confession is "the oldest and most authoritative of the Lutheran creeds," and a major historical document, in which the revolution of Martin Luther assumed organized political action and permanently changed the religious and national identity of Europe. "It was drafted by Melanchthon, on the basis of Luther's Marburg, Schwabach, and Torgau articles, and bore the signature of seven German princes....On 25 June, 1530, copies of it, in Latin and German, were presented to Charles V, at the diet of Augsburg, and the German version of it was read aloud before the secular and ecclesiastical Estates of the Empire.

Description:
London: Printed for W. Rogers, S. Smith, and B. Walford: at the Sun against St. Dunstan's church in Fleetstreet; and at the Prince's Arms in St. Paul's church-yard, 1701. This copy is bound in its original full calf, it is a nice copy. This is Grew's last work was published in 1701. I. The argument is specially directed against Spinoza, the nature of God being deduced à priori and à posteriori, from the necessity of His being and from His handiwork. As in Ray's 'Wisdom of God in Creation,' and other similar works, the argument à posteriori begins with much borrowed astronomical learning; but in a funeral sermon on the author we are assured, not only that he was 'acquainted with the theories of the Heavenly Bodies, skill'd in Mechanicks and Mathematicks, the Proportions of Lines and Numbers, and the Composition and Mixture of Bodies, particularly of the Human Body,' but also that he was 'well acquainted with the whole Body of Divinity,' and had studied Hebrew to more proficiency than most divines,…

London: Printed for Henry Herringman, and are to be sold at his shop at the Blew-Anchor in the Lower Walk of the New Exchange,1669, 1669. This is a good copy,Bound in modern boards. This is a rare edition Listing only 4 copies in ESTC. Wing E-3370; W & M 546; Hazlitt, page 45.. A-I4, K4.(In this edition, there is a comma after title word "revenge" and leaf A2r has catchword "hope". Another edition has a semi-colon after "revenge" and leaf A2r has catchword "the".). The first work of Etherege was The Comical Revenge, or Love in a Tub. It was published in 1664 and may have been produced for the first time late in the previous year. This comedy was an immediate success and Etherege found himself, in a night, famous. Thus introduced to the wits and the fops of the town, Etherege took his place in the select and dissolute circle of Rochester, Dorset and Sedley. On one occasion, at Epsom, after tossing in a blanket certain fiddlers who refused to play, Rochester, Etherege and other boon companions so…
