rif. 112964Venice Manfredo Bonelli 26 January 1505. . 8vo; title within decorative woodcut border 4-line decorative woodcut initial to A2 2-line initials elsewhere some toning and soiling small repair to fore-edge of title bookplate to front pastedown; later full vellum gilt lettering to spine on brown morocco title-piece minor worming to extremities and endpapers; collation: A-EE4; ff. 112. Rare 16th-century Italian edition of the world's first best-selling travel book. Although largely fictitious the journeys are based upon travellers' tales extant in the fourteenth century and as such are of considerable interest. Purchas considered Sir John Mandeville to be akin to Marco Polo in terms of importance 'the greatest Asian Traveller that ever the World had' Pilgrimes III p65. His travels take the reader through Turkey Armenia Persia Tartary Arabia India and China and gave many Europeans their first taste of the Near and Middle East as well as the East Indies. Little is known of Mandeville himself however he claims to have been an English Knight who travelled between 1322 and 1356 serving under both the Sultan of Egypt and the Great Khan. Although traditionally attributed to Mandeville in reality the work was an English version of a text known as Itinerarium of which the original ascribed to Jean d'Outremeuse was probably written in Anglo-Norman French. All pre-1725 editions of Mandeville are scarce and editions such as this in a vernacular language particularly so.

1772rif. 022660Edinburgh: J. wood 1772. title continues."and an abusive letter to Lord C. Two volumes octavo title page pp viii 316; xxii 23 - 298 14 pages a little age-toned throughout the first few pages are a little foxed in the first volume contemporary calf re-backed a long time ago with original spines relaid rather worn and frayed at the edges one corner neatly repaired. The front cover to the second volume is nearly detached and now just hanging by one thread. Bernard Mandeville or Bernard de Mandeville 1670 -1733 was an Anglo-Dutch philosopher political economist and satirist. Born in Rotterdam Netherlands he lived most of his life in England and used English for most of his published works. The book was primarily written as a political satire on the state of England in 1705 when the Tories were accusing John Churchill 1st Duke of Marlborough and the ministry of advocating the War of the Spanish Succession for personal reasons. In 1723 a later edition appeared including An Essay on Charity and Charity Schools and A Search into the Nature of Society. The former essay criticised the charity schools designed to educate the poor and in doing so instil virtue in them. Mandeville disagreed with the idea that education adds virtue because he did not believe that evil desires existed only in the poor but rather he saw the educated and wealthy as much more crafty. Mandeville also believed that educating the poor increased their desires for material things defeating the purpose of the school and making it more difficult to provide for them. Full Leather. Fair.
