Translated to Turkish by Mina Urgan. The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, often known simply as Tom Jones, is a comic novel by English playwright and novelist Henry Fielding. It is both a Bildungsroman and a picaresque novel. It was first published on 28 February 1749 in London, and is among the earliest English prose works to be classified as a novel. It is the earliest novel mentioned by W. Somerset Maugham in his 1948 book Great Novelists and Their Novels among the ten best novels of the world. Tom Jones is generally regarded as Fielding's greatest book and as an influential English novel. Urgan was a Turkish academic, translator, author and socialist politician. She translated works of Thomas Malory (c. 1415-1471), Henry Fielding (1707-1754), Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850), Aldous Huxley (1894-1963), Graham Greene (1904-1991), William Golding (1911-1993), John Galsworthy (1867-1933) and Shakespeare (1564-1616) into Turkish. She was honored with the "Golden Book Award" in 1993. For her work Virginia Woolf, she received the "Sedat Simavi Literature Award" in 1995, and the "Association of People of Letters Honor Award" in 1996. (Wikipedia). First Edition.

1813. Full article published in Edinburgh Review vol.21 pp.378-424. Manuscript two pages 4to trimmed at bottom with loss of text with light corrections and additions giving the text for pp.407-8 excluding two lengthy quotations from the book to which Brougham gives the reference only. The trimming had led to the loss of the passage from "In the Conservatorii or charity schools .

Subjects of the manuscript include Naples and King Ferdinand IV. Notes: A.

Henry Van Wart (1784-1873), American-born founder of the Birmingham Stock Exchange, England, and husband of Sarah Irving, sister
Washington Irving's brother-in-law Henry Van Wart. Signed bill 'To Mess. P. Irving & Co Merchants Liverpool' 'In re Peter Irving & In re Washington Irving' carrying bankruptcy order; and Promissory Note; both payable to Messrs. Lewis C & Co.
Both items dated from Birmingham England the bill on 1 November 1816 and the promissory note on 1 July 1817. Both signed boldly by Henry van War. The context of these documents is as follows. His brother Peter having fallen ill Washington Irving had taken over the running of the Liverpool office of his family firm which was forced to declare bankruptcy in 1818. Irving's brother-in-law Henry Van Wart had worked for the firm but had now moved to Birmingham where he would flourish. Both items are in fair condition on aged and worn paper. The bill is Van Wart's hand but the promissory note only carries his signature. Both have writing on both sides. The bill 10 x 23.5cm is embossed with a 7s 6d tax stamp. It reads: 'No. 1459 £439. 18. 6 Birmingham 1st Novr. 1816 Nine months after date pay to the order of Mess. Lewis Cooper & Co. Four hundred & thirty nine pounds 18/6 - value received Henry Van Wart To Mess P. Irving & Co Merchants Liverpool M115'. Countersigned : 'Accepted payable at dup & Rec'd Irving & Cos London P Irving & Co' and with two manuscript notations. On the reverse are three notes two of which read: 'In re Peter Irving & In re Washington Irving Exhibited March <> 1818 Henry Lawrence'presumably the bankruptcy proceedings and 'We the undersigned do hereby agree to release the within named Henry Van Wart from payment of this Bill in consideration of his having given us his note dated 1st July 1817 for 9/- in the Pound on the full claim against him & his Estate but without prejudice to any claim against the acceptors for Lewis Cooper & Co <>'. The promissory note 8.5 x 20cm is embossed with a 5s tax stamp. It reads 'No. 272 £195 - 12 - 9 Birmingham 1st July 1817 Eighteen Months after date I promise to pay Messrs. Lewis Cooper & Co. or order One Hundred & Ninety five pounds twelve shillings & nine pence value received - Henry Van Wart'. On reverse: 'Octr. 7th. 1818 Exhibited to N G C A M J. C' again paret of the bankruptcy proceedings. Van Wart's name is often given with a small 'v' to the 'Van' but it is clearly a capital in these two signatures. Note: Apparently no similar material concerning Washington Irving's time in his brother's business survives nor anything signed by Henry van Wart. See partial image. Both items dated from Birmingham [England], the bill on 1 November 1816, and the promissory note on 1 July 1817. Both signed bol unknown

HENRY VIII, King of England
Assertio Septem Sacramentorum Aduersus Martin. Lutheru
London: Richard Pynson 1521. Full Description:<br> <br> HENRY VIII King of England. Assertio Septem Sacramentorum Aduersus Martin. Lutheru. Aedita ab Invictissimo Angliae et Franciae Rege et do. Hyberniae Henrico Eius Nominis Octavo. London: Richard Pynson 1521.<br> <br> First edition. Small quarto 8 1/4 x 6 1/8 inches; 210 x 155 mm. 80 leaves. With the final two blank leaves. Final leaf of text is errata and colophon. Large woodcut initials. Title-page within a allegorical woodcut boarder signed HH for Hans Holbein. "The woodcut border on the title-page which depicts the story of C. Mucius Scaevola and King Porsenna McKerrow & Ferguson 8 was adapted from a design by Hans Holbein for the De immortalitate animae by Aeneas Gazaeus printed by Froben in Basel in 1516." Sotheby's.<br> <br> Probably remboitage binding of 17th-century vellum rebacked. The arms of Pope Urban VIII in gilt as central devices on front and back board. Boards double ruled in gilt and with gilt bees as corner devices. All edges gilt. Leaves very clean. Binding with staining and repairs to corners. Old ink manuscript on front board. Final blank leaf professionally repaired. Overall a very good copy.<br> <br> It was perhaps as early as 1516 that Cardinal Wolsey anxious to distract him from more worldly preoccupations first encouraged Henry VIlI to embark on a serious rejoinder to Luther 49. In so doing Wolsey wrought his own downfall and this was perhaps the least of the consequences of 'The Assertion of the Seven Sacraments' one of the most fateful books in the history of western civilisation. Despite his unfeigned zeal to extirpate heresy it was not until Henry began to take a serious interest in foreign affairs that he realised the practical value which such a work might have if dedicated to the Pope. It is difficult to estimate the spiritual influence of the papacy at a time when the vast majority of Christendom saw It as a not specially powerful temporal state; but it was none the less felt. How much Henry's anxiety to complete the book between May and July 1521 was activated real if romantic desire to become the champion of the papacy it is hard to say. This point of view may be supported by Henry's statement to a startled and incredulous Thomas More 47 that 'from that See we received our crown imperial. More could see the dangers of so firm commitment to the temporal if not to the spiritual power of the papacy and his misgivings were soon to be justified a hundredfold. Henry gained the recognition he sought from Leo X the title of Fidei Defensor. But had he not made so absolute an admission of papal authority it is unlikely that he would have felt so personally slighted by the Pope's refusal to give him his way in his 'great matter' the divorce from Catherine of Aragon; unlikely that he would have turned with such vehemence on almost all the advisers. More among them who had made his reign so successful hitherto; unlikely that he would have claimed the royal supremacy in the Church; unlikely- but there speculation must stop. Suffice it to say that the publication of the Assertio must be considered to mark a critical moment in the history of the English Reformation." PMM 50.<br> <br> ESTC S123359. PMM 50.

On offer here is the facsimile volume only - it was originally sold in conjunction with a separate commentary volume and a CD of the music: those items are not included. Only 500 copies of the facsimile were offered for sale - one of the lowest limitations for Folio Society limited editions. From the publisher's promotional material : "Several manuscripts survive to testify to Henry's love of music but the most important is the Royal Choirbook now British Library Royal MS II E XI. This magnificent collection of motets was presented to the 27-year-old Henry and Catherine of Aragon in 1518. lt is exceptional for the sheer size and luxury of its production its exquisite and ingenious heraldic illuminations and not least its personal significance to Henry. As part of The Folio Society's commemoration of the quincentenary of his accession this Choirbook has been reproduced for the first time in facsimile a precious link with the great musical legacy of King Henry VIII.In 1515 the Venetian envoy Sebastiano Giustiniano was invited to attend High Mass in the king's private chapel at Hampton Court Palace. He wrote that it was 'gloriously sung by His Majesty's choristers whose voices are really more divine than human. They did not chant but sang like angels and as for the counter-bass voices I do not think they have their equals in the world. Indeed the choral music produced at the court of Henry VIII was thought by many to surpass what was being produced anywhere else in Europe. Fortunately the most magnifìcent musical book associated with Iienry's reign - the Royal Choirbook a book of motets composed for the young king and Queen Catherine of Aragon - has survived.This book's magnifìcent frontispiece represents the Tudor dynasty through the symbolism of roses blooming in the garden of England with the crowned rose ruling supreme. Petrus de Opitus an Italian merchant and his son Benedictus an organist were responsible for commissioning the Royal Choirbook - and the visual compliments to the king it contains are a testament to their own ambitions. Their lavish tribute extends to the musical and literary content. Copy No. 28. Facsimile as new; in a slipcase which has several minor scuffs and small indentations but is otherwise Very Good. Folio Society, London, limited edition, 2009 hardcover
