Description:
1657 1ed Poetry of Beauchasteau French Madrigals Christine of Sweden Mythology

François de Beauchasteau was a 17th-century French poet who is best remembered for his collection of poems, sonnets, madrigals, and songs. These poems were made famous in 1657, when Beauchasteau who was 12 years old at the time, presented these poems to the King. They were shortly, thereafter, published under the title 'La Lyre du Jeune Apollon' harkening the young poet's work to that of the Muses of Apollo.
This first edition opens with dozens of works of other authors and poets who praised the young poet for his prodigy. In addition to the works of song and poetry, this book includes portrait engravings representative of notable political figures, including one of Christine, Queen of Sweden.

Description:
1537 1ed Orthodox Saint John Chrysostom On the Priesthood + Brixius Marburg

A rare 16th-century printing of works of John Chrysostom. Chrysostom was one of the most important Early Christian Church authors and preachers and is most remembered for his sermons and homilies. He preached on many different subjects, but his most frequented topic was helping the needy. Chrysostom calls for followers of Jesus to set aside their material desires to help the poor, often in a way that shamed the rich and guilted them in to giving.
"Do you pay such honor to your excrements as to receive them into a silver chamber-pot when another man made in the image of God is perishing in the cold?" (Chrysostom in Liebeschuetz)

One of his most important treatises was 'On the Priesthood' in which he describes his experiences becoming a priest and living as a priest. Interestingly, this work was popular during his lifetime as he made references to it in his other works.
This extremely rare 16th-century edition of 'On the… Read More

Description:
1697 IRISH Jacobite Charles Leslie Snake in Grass Quaker Church Ireland AMERICA

Charles Leslie was a 17th-century Irish priest who was notable for being a Jacobite leader following the Glorious Revolution. Beginning in 1697, Leslie began writing his first of seven anti-Quaker propaganda works. It was in these works that Leslie made claims that Quakers were false prophets and conjurers. In addition to Quakers, Leslie defamed other religious groups including Jews, Catholics, and Deists, and his criticisms extended beyond Europe. According to Sabin, 'The Snake in the Grass' gives an account
"New Quakers who mostly reside in Long Island and East Jersey, in America."

1854 Opium War Japanese Woodblock Print China Qing Ming Sorcery Taiping Shujin
An interesting 18th century woodblock-print of 'Military Tales of the Qing vs Ming' by Seiei Shujin written as an account of the Opium War and the Taiping rebellion. These accounts are primarily military tales and focus on characters such as Hong Wulong a General for the Ming, or Li Boyu, a courageous female general who can perform sorcery. The book interestingly paints British soldiers as "barbarians" who have to "cower" to the Chinese Ming Warriors. This book offended the governmental authorities, and so, woodcuts were confiscated, and the author was thrown into prison.
This rare 1854 edition is written in a column format with furigana usage for easier reading. This 5-volume woodblock print is bound in the "fukurotoji (variously translated as "bound-pocket," or "pouch" binding)" style with Mino paper!
