London 1926, Holden. Vellum spine over yellow cloth, 288p., appendix, 16 photogravures, top gilt. Exact reprint of the London 1704 edition. R A R E LIMITED NUMBERED EDITION OF 750 COPIES Psalmanaazaar was a famous literary imposter & this literary hoax is truly enjoyable to read. It's rather like science fiction ! One look at the chart of Chinese characters is a delight. These have no resemblance what so ever. * SUBTITLE continued: "His Travels, Particularly his Conferences with the Jesuits, and Others.to Which is Prefix'd a Preface in Vindication of Himself from the Reflections of a Jesuit Lately Come from China, with an Account of What Passed Between Them." Although this is a fictional hoax, it was based on actual accounts of early Jesuits & other foreign visitors to China & Formosa. * BIBLIOGRAPHY: Cox II p.476. * Scans can be sent by email.

Table of contents in rear. An early, formidable hoax, fictional travel account of, to contemporary Europeans intrigued by exotic exploits and travels, the Island of Formosa. -- the author pretending to be a native of the island of noble status. His inventions too were exotic, including a Formosan language among other imaginative accounts. The real author thought to be N.F.B. Rodes? who received a Jesuit education where he may have learned some background about Formosa. BRUNET Vol.IV, p.919. LOWNDES, 1989. In Psalmanazar's posthumously published autobiography, the author writes "The Europeans have such obscure and various Notions of Japan, and especially of our Island Formosa, that they can believe nothing for Truth that has been said of it. But the prevailing Reason for this my Undertaking was, because the Jesuits I found have impos'd so many stories, and such gross Fallacies upon the Public, that they might the better excuse themselves from those base Actions, which deservedly brought upon them that fierce Persecution in Japan: I thought therefore it would not be unacceptable if I publish'd a short Description of the Island Formosa, and told the Reasons by this wicked Society, and at last all that profess'd Christianity, were, with them, expell'd that Country.". brown morocco, marbled paper endpapers and pastedowns. five raised bands.
