1716Best.-Nr. 1277391716. First Edition. LORD GREY OF WERK BERKELEY Henrietta. The Trial of Ford Lord Grey of Werk et al.É For Unlawful Tempting and Inciting the Lady Henrietta BerkeleyÉ to Unlawful LoveÉ with an Intent to Cause Her to Live in a Scandalous Manner. London: J. Morphew 1716. Slim octavo period-style full paneled calf raised bands red morocco spine label. $2000.First edition of the verbatim transcript of this sensational 17th-century trial in which Lord Grey was charged with seducing the under-18-year-old sister of his wife ""with an intent to cause her to live in a scandalous manner with the said Lord Grey."" Handsomely bound.The prosecution of this scandalous case was ably handled by George Jeffreys; the defense was equally capable and the verbatim transcript of the proceedings vividly portrays the case's high emotional charge. ""In 1682 Lady Henrietta became a well-known figure of scandal when still a minor and under 18 following the revelation of her love affair with Ford Grey Lord Grey of Warke 1655-1701 the husband of her elder sister Mary. The intrigue seems to have begun in 1681 and continued for about 14 months before it was discovered by Lady Henrietta's motherÉ Eventually the earl of Berkeley launched a lawsuit for unlawful seduction against Grey and his accomplices which was brought before the court of king's bench on 23 November 1682. Henrietta herself appeared at the trial but with her evidence the lord chief justice told her 'You have injured your own reputation and prostituted both your body and your honour and are not to be believed' State trials 9.176. As the court was breaking up the earl attempted to take his daughter away with him whereupon Henrietta announced that she was married to William Turner Grey's servant. A scuffle broke out in the courtroom as she refused to return home and her father tried to seize her by forceÉ The trial attracted a great deal of publicity and the story of Lady Henrietta's affair with her brother-in-law became the inspiration for Aphra Behn's Love Letters between a Nobleman and his Sister the first part of which was published in 1684"" ODNB.

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 248 pages. Description: "The first essay in David Berman's new collection examines the full range of Berkeley's achievement looking not only at his classic works of 1709-1713 but also Alciphron 1732 and his final book the enigmaic Siris 1744. Item two examines a key problem in Berkeley's New Theory of Vision 1709 : why does the moon look larger on the horizon than in the meridian The third item criticizes the view still uncritically accepted by many that Berkeley's attacks on materialism are levelled against Locke. Part 2 opens with Berman's two essays of 1982 - the first to show that Berkeley came from a rich and coherent Irish philosophical background. Next comes a discussion of the link between Berkeley and Francis Hutcheson and particularly their answers to the Molyneux problem which Berman takes to be the root problem of Irish philosophy. The fourth essay looks at the impact of the golden age Irish philosophy on eighteenth-century American philosophy where again Berkeley has a central position. The last item examines Berkeley's influence on Samuel Beckett. Part 3 shows the many-sidedness of Berkeley's career which is missed by those who concentrate exclusively on his work of 1709-1713. Each item here presents new material on Berkeley's life or on his works and thought; most of these are new letters not included in the Luce-Jessop edition of the Works of Berkeley. This section therefore can be seen a supplement to volumes 8 and 9 of the Works and also to Luce's Life of Berkeley.
