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.

Nicolas Sanson 20 December 1600 7 July 1667 was a French cartographer termed by some the creator of French geography in which he's been called the "father of French cartography." The French school of Geography was unprecedented in its attention to precision and scientific detail and discarded much of the decorative embellishments of previous maps as irrelevant. From Sanson's time in the second half of the seventeenth century until the latter part of the eighteenth century French geographical conceptions were more influential than those put forward by any other nation. He was tutor to Louis XIII and Louis XIV. Sanson published over 300 maps. In 1692 Hubert Jaillot collected Sanson's maps in an Atlas nouveau. Wikipedia unknown

Best.-Nr. 6991Paris: 1665. No binding. Very Good. 400 x 490 mm. in fine early outline colour in very good condition. This map of northern Ireland was published in Paris by Pierre Mariette. It was first introduced in to a later edition of Nicolas Sanson's ""Les Cartes Generales"" in 1665. Nicolas 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. His atlas is the first full world atlas to be produced in France. This work had been in development for several years as the dates on the various maps attest. A fine example of the first state.
