Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. London: Printed for William Shears in Westminster-hall, FIRST Edition, 1657 & & London: Printed for William Shears, at the Bible in St. Paul's Church-yard, 1655. Half leather binding by Bayntun, stamped to the front paste down, with gilt titles to a red spine label, date of publicat…ion to the base of the spine, marbled paper covered boards, rubbed and worn. Scarce first edition (here in the 1657 issue, but first published in 1655) of a political history of England written in 1610 by the famous antiquary and politician Sir Robert Bruce Cotton (1571-1631). Although the title-page states author as Sr Walter Rawley, he signs the text on page 96 [G8v]: "Robert Cotton Bruceus". "The French Charity", with a separate title-page and pagination, has also been attributed to him. Cotton wrote this political history of Great Britain in 1610 at the request of King James I for the education of his sixteen-year-old son, the Crown Prince Henry, Prince of Wales, who died two years later. In 1657 he reissued it with a cancel title-page (still under Oliver Cromwell, but now referring to the state as the "Common-Wealth", a term now usually reserved for the period before 1653). Some copies come with a frontispiece portrait of Sir Walter Raleigh (not present here). Cromwell had secured a declaration of war against Spain on 15 October 1655, and perhaps for that reason the 1657 title-page changes the tome with regard to war, suggesting that kings were too often preferred an unjust peace to a just war. Further editions appeared after the Restoration under various titles. The translator of The French Charity (not known to have been published in the original French), is stated as "F.S.J.E.", and is thought to be John Evelyn. Cotton was an avid collector of books, manuscripts, coins and antiquities. His Cottonian Library contained the richest collection of manuscripts ever assembled by a private person. The collection now resides in the British Library. Lacking the cancel-title and portrait. ESTC R221452 but with the 'e' in Forragin; Woodcut head- and tailpieces & initials. Pagination: [2], 96pp; [2], 10pp. Provenance: no inscriptions or bookplates. Approximately 6 ½ inches tall (16.2cm).

Aggiungi al carrelloRare first edition (here in the 1657 issue, but first published in 1655) of a political history of England written in 1610 by the famous antiquary and politician Sir Robert Bruce Cotton (1571-1631). Although the title-page names no author, he signs the text on G8v: "Robert Cotton Bruceus" and The French charity, added with a sep…arate title-page as a sort of appendix, has also been attributed to him. Although The French charity is not named on the present title-page, it was named on the 1655 title-page and is clearly intended as part of the edition. Cotton wrote this political history of Great Britain in 1610 at the request of King James I for the education of his sixteen-year-old son, the Crown Prince Henry, Prince of Wales, who died two years later. In 1657 he reissued it with a cancel title-page (still under Oliver Cromwell, but now referring to the state as the "Commonwealth", a term now usually reserved for the period before 1653) and in some copies also a frontispiece portrait of Sir Walter Raleigh (not present here).

Further editions appeared after the Restoration under various titles. The translator of The French charity (not known to have been published in the original French), described as "F.S.J.E.", has been supposed to be John Evelyn, but the "F.S." remains puzzling (Evelyn became a Fellow of the Royal Society only in 1663, and the Society was not established until the Restoration in 1660). Cotton was an avid collector of books, manuscripts, coins and antiquities. His Cottonian Library contained the richest collection of manuscripts ever assembled by a private person.
