Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Very Good. Drawn from Cobbett's monumental 19th-century archive, this original report of the Old Bailey trial offers a gripping glimpse into the hysteria surrounding the Popish Plot. In December 1678, William Ireland, Thomas Pickering, and John Grove were found guilty of high treason for allegedly conspiring to assas…sinate King Charles II, a charge steeped in the anti-Catholic fervour of Restoration England. Their prosecution reflects the volatile intersection of religion, politics, and justice during this period. All three men received the death sentence. Ireland was executed in January 1679. Pickering's execution followed later that year, while Grove's fate remains uncertain; records suggest his sentence may have been commuted or indefinitely postponed, as no definitive account of his execution survives. 31 pages, printed in double columns. Printed between 1809 and 1826, these historic documents are vivid extracts from Cobbett's State Trials; pages from the courtroom record that preserve the voices, arguments, and verdicts which helped shape the course of British justice and still echo through its constitutional legacy.

Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Very Good. The Popish Plot trials, beginning in 1678, represent one of the most fevered episodes of anti-Catholic paranoia in English legal history. Sparked by Titus Oates's fabricated claims of a Jesuit conspiracy to assassinate King Charles II and subvert Protestant rule, the ensuing investigations and prosecutions… swept through courtrooms, pulpits, and Parliament with devastating force. This series of original reports from Cobbett's State Trials captures the unfolding drama in vivid detail : Burnet's reflective account offers historical context; Oates's own narrative reveals the mechanics of invention and manipulation; the examinations of Samuel Atkins and Captain William Bedlow show how rumour was elevated to evidence; and Lord Keeper North's manuscript provides insight into judicial unease. The trial of William Stayley, a Catholic goldsmith, marks the first execution under the Plot's shadow, a chilling precedent for the wave of prosecutions that followed. Together, these documents form a forensic archive of hysteria, credulity, and the perilous intersection of religion and state. 54 pages, printed in double columns. Printed between 1809 and 1826, these historic documents are vivid extracts from Cobbett's State Trials; pages from the courtroom record that preserve the voices, arguments, and verdicts which helped shape the course of British justice and still echo through its constitutional legacy.

Aggiungi al carrelloUnbound Pages. Condizione: Very Good. Fourth Edition. A set of formal accusations is laid before the King and Privy Council against Chief Justice Scroggs, alleging partiality, overreach, and abuse of judicial authority during the Popish Plot prosecutions. The articles illuminate the political pressures on the bench and the growi…ng unease with the excesses of Plotâ'era justice. 5 PAGES, printed in double columns. A genuine 1778 printing taken from the authoritative Complete Collection of State Trials. Originally compiled to serve both as a legal reference and a vehicle of political discourse, the State Trials series shaped contemporary and subsequent understanding of justice, authority, and dissent. The generously sized sheets on which these trials are printed offer particular pleasure to the eye and hand, bearing clear signs of their handmade origin: chain lines and wire impressions from the mould are readily visible, some pages display watermarks, and the paper varies subtly in thickness, all characteristic of 18th century rag paper. This particular trial report has been preserved in a modern card cover, prepared for practicality - an unassuming but serviceable presentation that favours function over finery. Size: 30 x 47 cms. Category: State Trials; Printed before 1800; State Trials::Large Folio. This item may require more postage than the rates shown for delivery outside the UK.

Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: Very Good. This remarkable group of trial reports and polemical pamphlets offers a concentrated lens on the fevered climax of the Popish Plot prosecutions in 1679. At its heart are the trials and executions of five Jesuit priests; Thomas Whitebread, William Harcourt, John Fenwick, John Gavan, and Anthony Turner, accu…sed of conspiring to assassinate King Charles II. Their proceedings at the Old Bailey, alongside that of Richard Langhorn, a Catholic barrister, became emblematic of the era's volatile mix of religious paranoia, political opportunism, and judicial theatre. Supplementary tracts, animadversions, rebuttals, and spiritual accounts reveal the contested legacy of these men, with voices both condemning and defending their final speeches and conduct at Tyburn. The surrounding trials of Sir George Wakeman and several Benedictine monks, show the breadth of the campaign against Catholic clergy. Meanwhile, Chief Justice Scroggs's courtroom speech and the pamphlet skirmishes that followed reflect the judiciary's struggle to maintain authority amid a pamphlet war that threatened to undermine public trust. Together, these documents form a vivid archive of the legal, religious, and rhetorical machinery of persecution at the height of the Plot. 196 pages, printed in double columns. Printed between 1809 and 1826, these historic documents are vivid extracts from Cobbett's State Trials; pages from the courtroom record that preserve the voices, arguments, and verdicts which helped shape the course of British justice and still echo through its constitutional legacy.

Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Small 8vo. Self-cover. Pp. 417-424. Near fine. Faintly age toned, as usual, else bright and attractive. Single issue (June 20, 1681) from the third volume of this Catholic-bashing weekly whose purpose was to fan the flames of anti-Catholicism supposedly begun by Titus Oates and which gripped England from 1678 to 1681.… Oates wanted all Brits and Scots to believe that the Catholic Church in England was trying to assassinate King Charles II. On page 423 a contemporary hand neatly pens "Remarkable" alongside one anecdote about "a famous Virgin, called Juliana." This particular issue was published as the hysteria was waning, and soon afterward Oates was tried for perjury and found guilty. A handsome example.

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. First Edition. pp. 18. Slim folio measuring 12" x 7.75". Rebound in modern 1/4 leather over paper boards. Appointment (license) leaf has been reproduced on old paper in perfect letterpress facsimile. Period numbered notations ("318-325") to upper-right margins of rectos, else, near fine. Corresponds to ESTC Citation N…o. R14804. See also, Wing E3717. A politically charged document from the height of the "Popish Plot" hysteria, which captures the interrogation of Edward Fitzharris, a Catholic courtier accused of treason for allegedly authoring a seditious pamphlet inciting rebellion against the Crown. The "Popish Plot", a fabricated conspiracy concocted by Titus Oates, fueled widespread anti-Catholic sentiment in England and Scotland, leading to numerous prosecutions. Fitzharris' case became a flashpoint in the struggle between Parliament and the Crown during the Exclusion Crisis, with the Commons seeking to use his prosecution to justify their anti-Catholic measures, while the King and the courts asserted royal prerogative, ultimately leading to Fitzharris' execution in 1681. Published by order of the Commons, the present offering was likely intended as propaganda to reinforce public fears of Catholic subversion and to bolster parliamentary authority. A significant artifact of 17th-century political intrigue and power struggles.

Some Observations Upon the Late Tryals of Sir George Wakeman, Corker and Marshall, &c. By Tom Tickle-Foot the Taborer, Late Clerk to Justice Clodpate. London: Printed for A. Brewster,… 1679. 8, 7-9, [1] pp. Pagination irregular, text complete. Folio (11-1/2" x 7-3/4"). Stab-stitched pamphlet in later plain wrappers. Light creasing and edgewear to wrappers, chip to foot of front wrapper, moderate toning and occasional light foxing to interior, lower corner of leaf B1 (pp. 5-6) lacking without loss to text, small ink "11" to head of title page. $250. * Only edition. Supposedly written by a clerk to "Justice Clodpate," this satirical and sensational account of the Popish Plot of 1678 is also a remarkably perceptive and interesting contemporary analysis. One of the cruelest hoaxes in British history and the catalyst for a wave of anti-Catholic violence, the Popish Plot was the invention of Titus Oates, an Anglican clergyman, and his friend, Dr. Israel Tonge, a cleric and passionate anti-Catholic. They pretended to have discovered a Jesuit plot to assassinate the King, massacre Protestants and set James, Duke of York, the King's Catholic brother, on the throne. After the hoax was discovered in 1685 Oates was convicted of perjury, severely flogged and imprisoned. Under William III he was released and pensioned. English Short-Title Catalogue R12969. London: Printed for A. Brewster, 1679 (illustratore).

From Wikipedia: "Ireland was the eldest son of William Ireland of Crofton Hall, Yorkshire, by Barbara, a daughter of Ralph Eure of Washingborough, Lincolnshire, by his first wife. Ire…land was educated at the English College, St. Omer; admitted to the Society of Jesus at Watten, 1655; professed, 1673; and was for several years confessor to the Poor Clares at Gravelines. In 1677, Ireland was sent on the English Mission and appointed procurator of the province. On the night of 28 September 1678, he was arrested by constables led by Titus Oates, and taken before the privy council. Among those who shared his fate was John Grove, a layman and the nominal occupier of that part of Wild House, London, occupied by the Jesuits and the Spanish ambassador; also Thomas Jenison and John Fenwick. Together with Thomas Pickering, Ireland and Grove were said to have planned on 19 August, in the rooms of the Jesuit William Harcourt, to assassinate the king Charles II at Newmarket. Oates and William Bedloe swore that Grove was to have £1500 for the job and Pickering 30,000 Masses. The sworn testimony of Gates and Bedloe impressed the jury, and Chief Justice William Scroggs summed up against Ireland. After confinement in Newgate Prison, Ireland was sentenced to death on 17 December. Ireland wrote a journal in Newgate, which accounted for every day of his absence from London between 3 August and 14 September, but a Sarah Pain swore that she saw him in Fetter Lane on 20 August. After two reprieves Ireland and Grove were executed together at Tyburn, Grove saying: "We are innocent, we lose our lives wrongfully, we pray God to forgive them that are the causes of it." A deposition against Ireland's alibi was subsequently published by Robert Jenison, and further charges were brought against Ireland in John Smith's Narrative containing a further Discovery of the Popish Plot of 1679.

Aggiungi al carrello2pp., foolscap 8vo. On watermarked laid paper, and plainly intended as an index to a volume of bound tracts. Aged and worn, with chipped edges, and a small part of the bottom outer corner of the leaf torn away, resulting in the loss of two numbers from the pagination. The document is headed 'The Contents of the 2. Volume', and i…s closely written in a clerk's hand. Both pages divided into two columns. The first third of the list, consisting of around 40 items, is headed 'Narratives', beginning with 'By Thomas Dangerfield' and ending with 'Remarks on some passages in ye life of Mr Blood relating to ye D. of B.' The second third of the document is headed 'Tryalls' and begins 'of Sir George Wakeman | Marshall | Rumby | Corker | [the last three names] Benedicin Monks', and ends with 'Tryial Conviction & condemnation of Andrew Bromigh & Wm Atkins | Priests at Stafford And Charles Kerne at Hereford Assizes'. The document also contains brief notes of 'Narratives in ye 1st. volume' and 'Tryalls in ye 1st. Volume', as well as a list of names in the second volume. The identity of the compiler is unknown. The book collector James Bindley (1737-1818) was a notable collector of material on the subject, and the list may relate to material sold after his death. The London bookseller Percy Dobell was a notable seller of such material, and the item may well have been handled by him.

The Account of the Manner of Executing a Writ of Inquiry of Damages: Between His Royal Highness James Duke of York, &c. And Titus Otes, Which was Executed at the Bar of the Court of Kings Bench at Westminster, On Wednesday the 1…9th. Of June, 1684. In the Presence of the High Sheriff of Middlesex. London: Printed for Benj. Tooke, 1684. [iv], 31, [1] pp. Folio (11-1/2" x 7-1/2"). Stab-stitched pamphlet rebound in recent quarter cloth over marbled boards. Negligible rubbing and light soiling to boards. Moderate toning to interior, occasional light foxing, light soiling in a few places. $450. * Only edition. Oates, an Anglican clergyman, and his friend, cleric and anti-Catholic Dr. Israel Tonge, were the inventors of the Popish Plot, one of the cruelest hoaxes in British history and the inspiration for a wave of anti-Catholic violence. They pretended to have discovered a Jesuit plot to assassinate the King, massacre Protestants, and set James, Duke of York, the King's Catholic brother, on the throne. From 1678-1681, at least 15 innocent men were executed as traitors on Oates's testimony. In 1681, however, the tide began to turn against Oates. Undeterred by the change in public opinion, he pronounced the Duke of York a traitor and was sued for libel in 1684. The present work documents the trial, at which Oates refused to plead, and the subsequent ?100,000 fine awarded as damages. He was imprisoned after defaulting. When James acceded to the throne in 1685, Oates was convicted of perjury, imprisoned for life, stripped of his vestments and publicly whipped. He was later pardoned by William and Mary and granted a pension of ?260 per year. English Short-Title Catalogue R34141.

PLEASE CONTACT US FOR A COMPLETE VERSION.** * Only edition. One of the cruelest hoaxes in British history and the inspiration for a wave of anti-Catholic violence, the Popish Plot was the invention of Titus Oates, an Anglican clergyman, and his friend, Dr. Israel Tonge, a cleric and passionate anti-Catholic. They pretended to have discovered a Jesuit plot to assassinate the King, massacre Protestants, and set James, Duke of York, the King's Catholic brother, on the throne. The trial of Green, Berry and Hill was one of its most shameful episodes. In October 1678 Godfrey, a justice of the peace to whom Oates first described the plot, was found dead in a ditch, apparently the victim of murder. The Catholic community was blamed and Green, Berry and Hill were eventually hanged for his murder. Many questions about this case remain, however, including the exact circumstances of Godfrey's death. One theory holds that Godfrey was killed by Oates and his supporters to underpin their own invented plot, another that he was murdered for reasons unconnected with any Catholic plot. It is also possible that Godfrey committed suicide; when his body was found it was manipulated to fit the plot scenario. In any event, Godfrey was buried in an elaborate funeral as a martyr to the Protes.
