London: Robert Wilson 1614. Disbound. Very Good. 7" by 5.5". None. A very scarce first edition of this important treatise by Francis Bacon. Here Bacon highlights his stance against duels which he deemed to be against the will of God. This work was published as a part of James I's anti-dueling campaign. Bacon's work was one of two major treatises published on this subject at the time. The campaign was prompted by a series of high profile combats between leading courtiers in late 1613. In October of 1613 James I issued a proclamation banning the publishing or writing of works on duels. He also made the offence punishable in Star Chamber to publicise any proceedings of duels. Henry Howard the Earl of Northampton lead the campaign initially and this then fell to Sir Francis Bacon the attorney general upon Northampton's death. This work is one of the major contributions to the Jacobean anti-dueling campaign. ESTC reference No: S121055. A disbound copy of this work which is closely trimmed to the head of the title. Collated lacking the initial and final blanks. Illustrated with woodcut head pieces and initials. Sir Francis Bacon was a leading intellectual figure of sixteenth and seventeenth century Britain.
