Hooke at the Flower-de-Luce in Fleet Street & 2 others 1720. title continued: Being a Collection of Letters That passed between an English Lady and an English Gentleman in France who took an affection to each other by reading accidentally one another's Occasional Compositions both in Prose and Verse.First edtion First Issue. Engraved head and tail pieces. 8vo 7 3/4 x 4 3/4 inches pages: xxiv Dedication to Sir Richard Steele:xxv-lxviii A Critical Essay.by way of Letter from Mr. John Porter.:131 contemporary full panelled tan calf 20th Century very neat reback in tan calf with lettering piece. Contemporary signature 'Nichs Marshall' on front fly. Anon. Rare. Clio was Fowke's "literary" name for herself while Strephon was the poet and journalist William Bond. The work is an exchange of letters in verse and prose. Fowke's poetry sometimes expresses her frustration with the conventional expectations of a woman's place in 18th Century society; her former friend and fellow-writer Eliza Haywood attacked Fowke in a scandalous account of her relationships which affected the poet's reputation badly.

1682réf. za2213A Paris, chez l'Auteur, aux Galleries du Louvre, vis à vis l'Eglise de St Nicolas Relié 1682 "In-12 (9,8 x 16 cm), reliure plein veau, dos à 4 nerfs orné de caissons dorés, liseré doré sur les coupes, tranches mouchetées, titre comple : ""Introduction à la géographie, première partie. Où sont 1. Indiquées les Sciences dont la Géographie emprunte plusieurs Principes. 2. La Description des differentes Manieres dont cette Science est Représentée. 3. L'Explication des Termes de toutes les Parties de la Geographie. 4. Une Instruction de toutes les Parties de la Geographie. 4. Une Instruction de l'Usage des Cartes."", pagination comme suit : page de titre, préface (6 pp. non numérotées), avis au lecteur (2 pp. non numérotées), table des chapitres (9 pp. non numérotées, fautes à corriger, extrait du Privilege du Roy, 292 pp., table alphabetique (13 pp. non numérotées), avertissement (5 pp. non numérotées). Le plan de cet ouvrage de 320 pages est composé de trois parties. Dans la première, l'auteur place la géographie dans la cosmoraphie, puis il distingue entre globes et cartes, avant de décrire, comme l'avait fait Lubin, le vocabulaire de la géographie. Guillaume Sanson conclut cette partie par un chapitre sur l'usage des cartes. La deuxième partie s'intéresse aux relations entre l'astronomie et la géographie, décrivant le globe soit par par zones, soit par la grille des latitudes et longitudes. Enfin, la troisième partie, dite de géographie naturelle, rassemble pêle-mêle la liste des découpages du globe, selon les grilles évoquées dans la deuxième partie, puis en fonction des continents et des mers, voire selon d'autres critères comme les géographies historique, politique et sacrée, ou linguistique. La description de l'ensemble des Etats du monde y occupe 20 pages (et semble avoir été inspirée par l'Atlas du monde publié par Nicolas Sanson en 1665). Il s'agit donc d'abord d'une géographie assez théorique qui viserait à faire connaître le vocabulaire ainsi que les catégories de la géographie. Pourquoi cette introduction n'offre-t-elle pas plus de description de la géographie du monde ? Parce que la géographie --comme Guillaume Sanson l'écrit dans la préface-- ""est présentement à la Portée de tout le Monde, puisqu'avec cette méthode il ne faut que des yeux et des cartes"" (Sanson 1682). Deux hypothèses en découlent. La première fait de ce livre avant tout un prospectus pour les cartes des Sanson. La seconde y voit une tentative, par la famille Sanson, de captation de la géographie par la cartographie. De plus, on trouve dans l'édition de 1682 un avertissement passionnant de la main de Sanson, situé après la table alphabétique des matières. Il y critique la ""Méthode pour apprendre facilement la géographie"" de Jacques Robbe (1678), ainsi que la ""Description de Univers contenant les différents systèmes du monde"" à paraître (1683) de Manesson-Mallet, le traitant sans retenue de plagiaire. Plus loin, ayant mis en garde des acheteurs de cartes que les copistes étaient foison, Sanson note qu'il fait encore partie des vivants : ""Quelques uns nous effacent hardiment du nombre des Vivans, d'autres ont voulu persuader que nous estions retournez en Province, & qu'il y en avoit qui avoient eu assez d'effronterie pour prendre notre Nom ; de sorte que nous avons fait mettre à la Teste de cette Introduction Que nous demeurons aux Galleries du Louvre, pour desabuser le Public, & faciliter par là de Dessein de ceux qui voudront nous faire l'honneur de venir chez nous pour s'éclaircir de quelques difficultez, ou pour prendre avis touchant nos Ouvrages qu'ils voudront avoir."" ; quelques épidermures au dos, coiffe supérieure et coins du premier plat un peu usés, par ailleurs intérieur frais, bon état général.

réf. 11195Paris: 1655-1703. No binding. Good. 435 x 580 mm. early outline colour in good condition. A fine detailed map of Poland Lithuania Latvia present day Belarus and Ukraine published by Nicolas Sanson 1600-67. The map was first published in 1655 with at least one later state dated 1663. Here it is dated 1703 upper right. Sanson was to bring about the rise of French cartography although the fierce competition of the Dutch would last until the end of the century. This shift in cartographic centres shadowed the relative fortunes of the two countries; France under Louis XIV was a growing power in Europe. Born in Abbeville in the Picardy region of France 1600 Sanson studied history and turned to cartography as a means of recording it. In 1630 he was made Géographe Ordinaire du Roi and was to become one of the tutors to Louis XIV. However his future success was partly owing to the partnership he made with the publisher Pierre Mariette. In 1644 the latter had purchased the business of Melchoir Tavernier and helped Sanson with financial support in producing the maps for the planned atlas. In 1657 Pierre Mariette died which delayed publication of Sanson's atlas. However his son also named Pierre co-published Les Cartes Générales de toutes les parties du Monde the following year. It was the first folio French produced world atlas. Pastoureau 1984 Sanson V A 65. 1655-1703 unknown
