Note - v1. - The Duke had been since 1817 Grand Master of the Irish Orangemen and he was accused of making use of this position to pose as the defender of Protestantism and to tamper with the loyalty of the Army. These accusations were only set at rest by the Duke's categorical denial and by the assistance he rendered in suppressing the whole of the Orange Societies at the request of the government. DNB. Joseph Phillips a radical and supporter of the 1832 Reform Bill took the opportunity of the Duke's unsuitable opposition to the same bill to publish an attack that included the accusation that the Duke was responsible for the death of his servant Sellis. For this Phillips was jailed. London & Dublin. 1832-1833 hardcover

Ireland travelled from Hellevoetsluis and Brielle through Rotterdam Dordrecht Delft The Hague Scheveningen Leiden Haarlem and Amsterdam continuing through North Holland Utrecht Vianen Gorinchem Breda and Bergen op Zoom. The illustrations include views of Rotterdam Delft The Hague and Huis ten Bosch Scheveningen Leiden Haarlem and Paviljoen Welgelegen Amsterdams Herengracht and Amstel Zaandam Utrecht Breda and numerous other locations.The atmospheric aquatints were made after Irelands own drawings and were largely engraved by the Dutch artist Cornelis Apostool 17621844 who later became director of the Rijksmuseums predecessor the Koninklijk Museum in Amsterdam.

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request – – IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY BRAND NEW PRISTINE NEVER OPENED -- The Roman occupation of Britain lasted nearly 400 years and produced a wide-ranging and radical transformation of the country affecting virtually every aspect of life: town-development transport agriculture industry and lifestyle. Rome also opened Britain to the intellectual and religious diversity of the empire. Yet there is plentiful evidence in both the literary record and the ever-increasing archaeological material to show that Britain -- a late-comer to Rome’s empire -- often resisted external influence and imbued imported Roman ways with native characteristics. This text seeks to introduce the history of Rome’s involvement with Britain in a succinct but readable way providing an overview of the country’s already diverse culture before the advent of the legions; tracing the historical development of the province under Rome and how the Romans maintained their hold on it; and tackling topics such as administration development of towns and the countryside religion and art. The aim of the book is not simply to supply information but to invite the reader to ask questions and delve deeper into Rome’s most northerly province. -- with a bonus offer--; 520-hillss; Hill Stephen J. ; Stanley Ireland ; Roman Britain GREAT BRITAIN HISTORY 449 MEDIEVAL The Roman occupation of Britain lasted nearly 400 years and produced a wide-ranging and radical transformation of the country affecting virtually every aspect of life: . 1996. 1853991406 .

AN EXCEPTIONAL COPY, WITH TWO UNIQUE AND IMPORTANT LETTERS CITED IN THE STANDARD OLYMPIA PRESS BIBLIOGRAPHY. One of 2,000 copies of the first British edition. (Actually this "British edition" was created by taking 2,000 copies of the first American (Grove Press) edition to England, putting a sticker over the imprint, and issuing a new dustjacket.) LAID IN ARE TWO EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TYPED LETTERS SIGNED--ABOUT 1,000 WORDS--FROM THE EDITOR, SINGLETON-GATES, on his letterhead, to a correspondent in Nothern Rhodesia (later Zambia) (!). In these unpublished letters, written during the 1960s, Singleton-Gates describes his feelings towards Casement. He also describes, in passionate terms, the fascinating circumstances surrounding the publication of these scandalous diaries, and the numerous obstacles he faced, including copyright and censorship issues. He furthermore explains his various other projects relating to Casement, none of which came to fruition. It is fair to say that these letters shed considerable light on the limits of press freedoms in Britain during the late 50s and 60s, as well as on the way Casement's heirs felt about his legacy. THESE LETTERS ARE CITED--and briefly excerpted--on pp. 60-61 of Patrick Kearney's bibliography, The Paris Olympia Press (Liverpool, Liverpool University Press, 2007). Also laid in are numerous newspaper clippings from 1959 and 1960, all relating to the publication. 4to. Publisher's cloth. Fine and bright, in a very good price-clipped dj.

Une nouvelle édition paraîtra en 1821 sous le titre Les Femmes ou Rien de trop. Pour Giraud de St. Fargeau Revue des Romans II p. 84, Eva c’est Corinne en Irlande. “Eva si douce, si tendre, si dévouée réunissant à un si haut degré la pureté du ciel et la simplicité de la terre, dissimulant les sentiments les plus vifs sous l’apparence d’une préoccupation toute religieuse et ne pouvant exprimer cette passion autrement qu’en mourant pour elle.”Women ; or Pour et Contre fut publié en Angleterre en 1818 et traduit aussitôt en français. “Quelles que puissent être les Corinne de Mad. de Staël (...) il ne répond pas à la définition que l’auteur a lui-même donnée de son génie et reste étranger à l’intérêt qu’il porte d’habitude au sombre et au terrifiant (...) Qu’y a-t-il de surprenant à ce que Maturin pour un temps “rassasié d’horreurs” se soit tourné vers le délicat mécanisme du cœur humain et penché sur les passions peut-être moins spectaculaires, mais aussi fortes que la peur ?” Lévy p. 560-563.Exempaire finement relié, rousseurs sur quelques cahiers.
1914réf. 13670England 1914. Original oil painting on canvas unsigned with caricatures of Asquith John Redmond and Lloyd George 19 1/2 x 30 inches framed in gilt to 22 1/2 x 32 1/2 inches overall. 1 vols. Fine condition. Original oil painting on canvas unsigned with caricatures of Asquith John Redmond and Lloyd George 19 1/2 x 30 inches framed in gilt to 22 1/2 x 32 1/2 inches overall. 1 vols. British Political Caricatures in Oil. A British political comment on the issue of Home Rule for Ireland. Amid celestial clouds a Union Jack-garbed figure of H.H. Asquith turns a grindstone on which a gleeful John Redmond in satanic wings sharpens a sword lettered "HOME RULE" as an angelic David Lloyd George flies away carrying by the coattails a small Irishman shillelagh in hand. Prime Minister Asquith introduced the Third Home Rule for Ireland Bill to the Commons in 1912 in part to oblige the Irish on which his Liberal ministry depended. Redmond leader of the Irish Nationalists established a balance of power favorable to the Irish and passage of the bill seemed assured. Lloyd George then Chancellor of the Exchequer aware of the heavily pro-English sentiment of Northern Ireland and of the political dangers of forcing unwilling Protestants under Catholic rule induced the parties to exempt Ulster from the provisions of the bill which finally passed in this form. This painting reflects the situation in early 1914: Redmond with the aid of Asquith prepares to sever Ireland from the mother country while Lloyd George symbolically carries the pugnacious Catholic faithful away from the Protestant sanctuary of the North. It is possibly the original of a Conservative Party political poster. A UNIQUE PIECE OF POLITICAL PROPAGANDA IN THE HIGHLY UNUSUAL MEDIUM OF OILS. Roy Jenkins Asquith pp. 174-5 et seq unknown books
