ref. 54669London: John and Josiah Boydell. 1796 1803. Original copper engraving. From "A Collection of Prints. Illustrating the Dramatic Works of Shakespeare." published by Boydell London 1803. In 1789 the publisher John Boydell opened the Shakespeare Gallery an exhibition space in London's Pall Mall showcasing paintings that exclusively represented scenes from Shakespeare's plays. The Gallery was a bid to revive 'history painting' the practice of depicting scenes from the Bible mythology or the classics in contemporary British art a genre thought to be of great public benefit because of its morally instructive messages. What better unifying theme for such a project than the works of Shakespeare which had become so popular and so integral to British identity by the mid-18th century The Gallery opened in May 1789 with 34 canvases by 18 British artists. By the next year there were 55 paintings and in 1796 the total was 84 along with dozens of 'Small Pictures'. Once the exhibition was mounted reproductive engravings of the paintings produced by an in-house team of 46 printmakers were available to purchase either as a large portfolio of 90 prints or as a luxurious illustrated edition of the plays.

1770ref. 165382Amsterdam: n.p. 1770. First edition part of a series of publications by the controversialist Linguet opposing reform to France's ancién regime this a particularly well-preserved copy. Simon Nicolas Henri Linguet 1736-1794 was a French journalist and lawyer "whose delight in taking views opposing everyone else's earned him exiles imprisonment and finally the guillotine" Encyclopaedia Britannica online. Throughout the 1760s and 1770s Linguet was perhaps the most renowned lawyer in France widely esteemed for his eloquence and legal acumen until his attacks on other lawyers led to his expulsion from the bar in 1775. Linguet opposed reform in his magnum opus Théorie des Loix civiles 1767. In the present work he continued his arguments and responded to criticisms. He specifically rejects the notion that the English are free and that their institutions provide a model for the French a popular idea among philosophes and criticizes Montesquieu's analysis of laws and the state. Linguet also counters physiocratic objections to his ideas which were printed in the Éphémérides du citoyen specifically with regard to grain regulation. Duodecimo.

2022ref. 52Terrance Lindall has a two page spread representing Paradise LostTerrance will sign the bookPandemonium: A Visual History of Demonologyby Ed SimonA compendium celebrating the art of hell and its minionsPandemonium: The Illustrated History of Demonology presents—for the first time—Satan's family tree providing a history and analysis of his fellow fallen angels from Asmodeus to Ziminiar. Throughout the book there are short entries on individual demons but Pandemonium is more than just a visual encyclopedia. It also focuses on the influence of figures like Beelzebub Azazel Lilith and Moloch on Western religion literature and art. Ranging from the earliest scriptural references to demons through the contemporary era when the devils took on a subtler form Pandemonium functions as a compendium of Lucifer's subjects from Dante's The Divine Comedy to John Milton's Paradise Lost and all the points in between. Containing rarely seen illustrations of very old treatises on demonology as well as more well-known works by the great masters of Western painting this book celebrates the art of hell like never before.Show moreGenresArtNonfictionHistoryReligionMythologyHorrorOccult400 pages HardcoverFirst published February 22 2022This editionFormat 400 pages HardcoverPublished February 22 2022 by CernunnosISBN 9781419756382 ISBN10: 1419756389Language English Abrams hardcover

Histoire critique du texte du Nouveau Testament où l'on établit la vérité des actes sur lesquels la religion chrétienne est fondée. Chez Reinier Leers Rotterdam 1689. TP 1 - 9 = Preface 10 14 = Table des Chapitres 1 - 430 1 blank leaf. 4to. First Edition. Richard Simon "father of modern exegesis" sought to moderate the radical thinking of the Enlightenment. His History of the text of the New Testament brought a critical-historical eye to those long-held and rarely questioned religious truths. He defended the faith against those heretical voices of ecclesiastical opposition while trying to carve space for historical critical Biblical exegesis. Simon found himself "embroiled in a grueling two-front war battling Spinoza on one side and the immense corpus of inherited interpretation on the other" Jonathan Israel Radical Enlightenment 450. CONDITION: Very good in original vellum. Tightly bound. Light spotting to covers. Name in ink to title page dated 1711. Small stamp on TP. Minor pencil markings to very few pages. A beautiful copy of an important text of the Enlightenment. PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST Chez Reinier Leers hardcover
