1680Best.-Nr. ABC_46098Cologne recté: Amsterdam 1680. 4to. Pierre Marteau" 19th-century brown paper wrappers. With the woodcut English royal arms on the title-page. 8 pp. Extremely rare pamphlet with the text - in French - of the Anglo-Dutch defensive alliance of 3 March 1678. In May 1672 French forces had invaded the Dutch Republic and initially seemed to have achieved an overwhelming victory the so-called Rampjaar 1672. England supported France in what became the Second Anglo-Dutch maritime war 1672-1674. By late July 1672 however the Dutch position had stabilized thanks to the new Stadholder Willem III. Concern about French gains led to the August 1673 Treaty of the Hague between the Republic Brandenburg-Prussia the Emperor Leopold and King Charles II of Spain; in early 1674 England and the Dutch made peace in the Treaty of Westminster. In November 1677 Willem III married his cousin Mary niece of King Charles II of England. In the meantime peace talks had begun in 1676 in Nijmegen resulting in an Anglo-Dutch defensive alliance concluded on the 3rd of March 1678 almost a half year before the treaty was signed in August. But English troops arrived in significant numbers only in late May allowing King Louis XIV to improve his negotiating position by capturing Ghent on the same day the alliance was concluded on 3 March.Untrimmed and with bolts unopened.

Later Elizabethan edition of the statutes passed during the final tumultuous parliament of Henry VIII's reign which sat from November 1545 to January 1546. This post-incunabula compilation contains twenty-four individual acts that fundamentally reshaped the legal economic and religious landscape of early modern England. Chief among these is the landmark Act Against Usury 37 Hen. VIII c. 9 a pivotal moment in Western financial history. By repealing the medieval Catholic Church's absolute canonical ban on lending money for profit this statute legalized commercial credit and established England's first maximum legal interest rate capped at 10 percent. This pragmatic shift recognized the realities of a burgeoning mercantile economy and laid the regulatory groundwork for modern capitalist banking. The volume also captures the final aggressive phase of the English Reformation through the First Chantries Act 37 Hen. VIII c. 4. This statute granted the Crown the authority to dissolve and seize the remaining wealth lands and mismanaged assets of chantries-chapels heavily endowed to pray for souls in purgatory. Coming on the heels of the Dissolution of the Monasteries this act funneled critical wealth into Henry's depleted treasury to fund his costly continental wars. Additionally reflecting the highly volatile and paranoid political climate of the ailing King's final years the inclusion of an act penalizing the false accusation of treason highlights the Crown. unknown

1670Best.-Nr. ABC_45696London 1670. Small 4to. in the Savoy printed by the assigns of John Bill and Christopher Barker = Thomas Newcombe printers to the Kings most excellent Majesty Sewn. With a woodcut factotum and decorative bands built up from typographic ornaments the crowned rose harp leak - depicted by a fleur-de-lis - and thistle representing England Ireland Wales and Scotland. 1 1 blank 11 1 pp. English translation of the Treaty of Madrid dated 1670 also called the Godolphin Treaty between England and Spain. Adopted in July 1670 and ratified on 28 September it officially ended the so-called Anglo-Spanish War 1654-1660 in the Caribbean. The open warfare between England and Spain caused by commercial rivalry had already ended in 1660 after six years of attacking each others commercial and colonial interests but the tension in the Caribbean caused conflict for ten more years. The war officially ended with two peace treaties signed at Madrid: the first dated 1667 and the present second dated 1670. The name Godolphin Treaty derives from William Godolphin 1635-1696 an English diplomat for Charles II and a member of Parliament. The negociations for this treaty between him and the Spanish representative Gaspar de Bracamonte Guzmán ca. 1595 - 1676 a Spanish statesman and count of Peñaranda who also played an important role in the famous Peace of Münster 1648 between France and the Holy Roman Empire started in the autumn of 1669. We can find those names at the end of the treaty.The present treaty was reprinted alone in 1698 printed by Charles Bill and the executrix of Thomas Newcomb deceasd printers to the Kings most Excellent Majesty ESTC R223888.Lacking A1 the title-page verso blank and the final blank leaf but otherwise complete so with no loss in the text of the treaty.

Description: "At the time of its inauguration the Manikata Church in Malta symbolized the new spirit of the Church as defined by the Vatican Council in 1963. This study highlights the way in which these new directives in architecture were introduced. The new spirit of the Church was revealed in the way greater emphasis was placed on the building to be the 'house of the community' reflecting the local character and culture rather than the 'house of God'. Signs of worship - altar lectern and presidential chair - were highlighted while all other devotional objects were rendered inconspicuous; earlier churches tended to be cluttered with altars placed in several chapels.
