Germantown: Christopher Saur 1750. xcvii120pp. Antique-style half calf and marbled boards spine gilt. Titlepage and first few leaves with neat paper repair in upper right corner. Light foxing and wear contemporary ownership inscriptions in text contemporary notations on front fly leaf. Very good. A Germantown Pennsylvania printing of Fenelon's work a selection of his OEUVRES SPIRITUELLES first published under this title in London in 1735. Fenelon 1651-1715 was a French archbishop theologian and writer best known for his work THE ADVENTURES OF TELEMACHUS first published in 1699. The title refers to Fenelon's banishment from court for friendship with a lady Madame Guyon whose Quietist views were considered heretical. Despite Fenelon's protestations that he did not share such beliefs that in combination with his publication of TELEMACHUS earned him the ire of Louis XIV. Later in life Fenelon wrote several anti-Jansenist works as well. This edition is notable for emanating from the press of Christopher Saur. In 1738 Saur established the first German-language press in America in Germantown near Philadelphia and his family continued printing there through the end of the century. Interestingly this work is in English one of the first of his English language imprints. Rare. This copy is further distinguished by having the ownership inscriptions of three women. The first on the front fly leaf reads: "This book Ann Cooper's in the year 1751 Price three shillings." The second inscription reads: "the gift of Ann Cooper's daughter Ann Whita several letters lost." Finally the top of the titlepage is inscribed in what would appear to be an early 19th- century hand: "Joseph and Hannah Whitall." This would seem to indicate descent through three generations of the same family. EVANS 6498. HILDEBURN 1174. ESTC W19461. Christopher Saur hardcover
