16811st edition. Full period leather binding. 32mo (2x4), 111 pages. Includes 4-page preliminary To the Reader. Thomas Barlow was an English academic and clergyman, who became Provost of The Queen's College, Oxford, and Bishop of Lincoln. He was seen in his own times and by Edmund Venables in the Dictionary of National Biography to have been a trimmer (conforming politically for the sake of advancement), a reputation mixed in with his academic and other writings on casuistry. His views were Calvinist and strongly anti-Catholic, and he was among the last English bishops to dub the Pope Antichrist. He worked in the 1660s for comprehension of nonconformists, but supported the crackdown of the mid-1680s, and declared loyalty to James II of England on his accession, having strongly supported the Exclusion Bill, which would have denied it to him. Rear boards is composed of 9 partial leaves of an earlier Latin imprint with red initial letters and neat black type, a knowledgable colleague has suggested that it is legal commentary text (not Law) dealing with with contracts, and responsibility, probably a Rhenish imprint from the 1480s. Incunable pages originally pressed together to form rear board, now seperating to individual sheets. Subjects: Divine right of kings -- Early works to 1800. Episcopacy. Politics and government. Early works. 1660-1688 Great Britain. OCLC: 15226351. OCLC lists 4 copies worldwide (UCLA, Yale, Trinity Dublin, Bayer. Staatsbib). Lacks blank front endpapers. Leather binding is worn with some spotting, lacks the front stiffener (board) and is separated from stiffener/board at rear as described above.

18671st edition. Lacks outer bindings, original period internal sewn binding in tact. Folio, 400 pages (8 pages each issue. Complete for 1866 and first half of 1867. English with occasional Hebrew. The Jewish Chronicle, Founded in 1841, it is the oldest continuously published Jewish newspaper in the world. It was initially under the editorship of D. Meldola and M. Angel. On Oct 18, 1844, to the editorship of Joseph Mitchell, it took the title of "The Jewish Chronicle (New Series) and Working Man's Friend"; it appeared only fortnightly till July 9, 1847, when it became a weekly; from Aug. 18, 1854, it was edited by M. H. Bresslau, who changed the title to "The Jewish Chronicle and Hebrew Observer. " From Jan. 12, 1855, A. Benisch assumed the editorship, which he retained till April 2, 1869, when Michael Henry took charge of the paper until his death (JE, 1905) . This run from the final 2 years of the American Civil War, includes numerous ads and announcements from the period, indicating deaths, weddings, and celebrations of all kinds, from across the UK, the British Empire, English Speaking Jewry and, indeed, the entire world. Anniversary dinners and events often list participants, which sometimes read like whos whos of Anglo-jewry of the period, and at other times mention names from the far reaches of the British Empire. Too many various reports, letters, discussions, and ads to describe, SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Great Britain -- Newspapers. First and final leaves show exposure wear, as expected, with corner curling to last 20 issues and edgewear generally not extending into the text.

1587réf. 46401414s.l.,, s.n.,, 1587 ; in-8, vélin de l’époque. 8ff., 281pp. – Voici ce que dit Brunet p.121: «Cette traduction est, rare, et même ce serait un livre précieux», se rapportant au prix d’adjudication de l’exemplaire Morel-Vindé. Bayle dans son dictionnaire nous apprend qu’il existe deux traductions françaises, publiées en 1587. Celle-ci, selon lui, est la meilleure. L’originale latine publiée à Cologne est de 1585. Celle de Rome d’après laquelle fut faite la traduction est de 1586. N. Sanders, un Catholique exalté, naquit en 1527 à Charlewood (Surrey). Il vécut à Rome, assista au Concile de Trente puis vécut 12 ans à Louvain où il publia divers livres de controverses. En 1579 il fut nommé nonce d’Irlande. Il serait mort de faim en 1579 après la déroute de l’armée catholique, dans une forêt où il s’était réfugié. Cet ouvrage est son texte le plus passionné. Exemplaire dans sa première reliure. Sur le dernier f. on trouve collé un très beau bois gravé avec un découpage montrant une scène de danse macabre dans un encadrement noir avec des larmes. –Mouillure pâle en marge de plusieurs feuillets.
