Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Fair. A delightful work, by a self-proclaimed 18th century jack-of-all trades and master-of-all, John Trusler. Prepared and published by the author, Honours of the Table functions as a how-to for considerations of the 18th century dinner table; it still holds strong interest for what it did accomplish (mea…t carving and market guide) and what it endeavored to accomplish (burdensome and humorous late 18th century social guidelines). This work has developed particular interest for culinary collectors; it contains an early illustrated guide to properly cutting various meats, The Art of Carving, and a guide to selecting meat, eggs, etc. at the market. The chapters on appropriate 18th century table behavior, for both "youth" and "young women", contain a number of eyebrow raising guidelines. Just a few quotes, from many: "Smell not your meat when eating." "Spit not on the carpet." "Punch no one in conversation." For young women: "Dread becoming cheap." "Read no novels, but let your study be in history, etc." "Trust no female acquaintance." Trusler, in contemporary advertisements, was proud of his works; regarding his The Progress of Man and Society, he states: ". it will be found to be the most entertaining and informing book that ever yet was published, and what every parent or instructor should put in the hands of youth." And when discussing the woodcuts he prepared for Proverbs Exemplified: ". so well designed, and the characters in human life so well drawn and preserved, the persons of taste may examine them with pleasure; and Dr. Trusler ventures to say, are no ways inferior to Hogarth's." Unfortunately this copy does not include his aggrandizing advertisements. Title Page - Not uncommon to this period, the title page attempts to describe the entire work: The Honours of the Table, or, Rules for Behaviour During Meals; with the whole Art of Carving, illustrated by a variety of cuts. Together with Directions for Going to the Market, and the Method of Distinguishing Good Provisions from Bad; to which is added A Number of Hints or Concise Lessons for the Improvement of Youth, on all Occasions in Life. By the Author of Principles of Politeness, etc. For the Use of Young People. Physical Attributes - Measures approx. 16 x 10 x 1 cm, 12mo. Calf binding. Illustrated. Pages - 120. Signatures signed A-E12. Condition - See pictures. Contemporary calf binding well worn with edge wear, corner wear and some rubbing to the boards, joints cracked. There is a worm route along the rear board. Top and bottom of spine are chipped exposing the ties used to bind the signatures. "Mrs. Jennings 1872" written on the flyleaf. Ghost of ink inscription on the same flyleaf, from something that was once placed inside the front cover of the books. Turn-ins have ghosted through to the title page. An ex-libris bookplate was removed from over the armorial of Trusler, but a few traces remain. Some toning throughout, more near page edge. Occasional fox spot, thumb, and dog-eared page. Tiny chip (.5 cm) at bottom of 79/80. The "Valuable Hints. Worth the Attention of Young Persons" has some pen marks on pages 112/13. Thumbing at bottom of 116. No flyleaf (free blank endpaper) at rear. Turn-in has again ghosted rear leaf (120). Mostly the text block is clean, with nice margins. John Trusler (illustratore).

Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Fair. Hardcover. 264 pages. Bound in original full leather, which is chipped and scuffed and partially torn off in a couple places, but which is still attached both front and back. Glue residue (from a book cover that has since been removed) on inside covers. A name has been clipped from the top of the tit…le page, but the handwritten date March 1801 and the words Harlow and Essex are still there. Half title page with an engraving of an old man leading the way for a younger one, and the words see with your own eyes in the engraving. Verso of that half-title engraving is the Trusler coat of arms, which serves as a frontispiece to the book. 5 page introduction before the pagination begins at page 1. Page 19/20 has a long closed tear. Page 37/38 is missing a large chunk from the upper corner. 29 of the first 30 engravings are hand-colored (but not particularly well). The rest, about 100 of them, are in the original condition. They are a very fine set of illustrations, showing in great detail various trades; printing, shopkeeping, tailor, fishing & angling, tanner, brick making, brewing, and more. There are hot air balloons, Africans, shipwrecks, executions and pillories, as well as illustrations showing all the punishments of heaven. There are images of the human skeleton and organs, muscles and blood vessels. There are several nudes, both male and female. All are full of life and detail. The illustrator, John Bewick, is often regarded as the first professional illustrator. His is best know for his collaboration with his more famous older bother Thomas on Gay s Fables; they produced a herbal together as well. A scarce illustrated title. Please email with questions or to request photos. If you see a photo beside this listing, please be aware that it's an ABE Stock Photo (whatever that is) and not a photo of this book.

Aggiungi al carrelloSecond edition. 102, 6pp. With three terminal leaves of publisher's advertisements. Contemporary tree sheep, later neatly rebacked. Rubbed. Scattered spotting. Armorial bookplate of Sir Henry Oakes to FEP, with his inked ownership inscription to head of title page. Recent book-label of Peter Stewart Young to recto of FFEP. 'Ther…e is no living well in society without submitting to, and failing in with, the forms of it, absurd as many of them may be - but fashion is absurd in most of its modes.' A rare survival of the revised edition, published in the year after the first, of Church of England clergyman John Trusler's (1735-1820) manual for young gentlemen on social conduct, that includes a lengthy impassioned remonstrance of the 'horrid practice' of duelling. In addition to guidance on securing the correct confident attitudes ('Every young gentleman, when arrived at manhood; if he be a gentleman by birth, by fortune, by profession of education.is fit company for a prince'), this work positively brims with practical guidance on riding, conversation, addressing correspondence, dining and other encounters of polite society. Whilst Trusler recognises the frequent absurdities of Regency fashion, his work was evidently an invaluable guide to the nuances of it. Trusler published a wide-range of guidebooks and manuals, composed both by himself and others, most notably his compendium of dates and historical tables Chronology, or, The Historian's Vade-Mecum (1769). He is also credited with publishing the first thesaurus to the English language, entitled The Difference between Words Esteemed Synonymous (1766). All editions are scarce, with this second being no exception; OCLC and COPAC together record copies at just three locations (BL, Cambridge, and Oxford). Size: 12mo.
