National Library of Scotland, Edinburgh, first edition, 1983. Laminated illustrated wrappers, small 4to,. 104, [2] pp, ills. 222 entries. From the introduction - "This exhibition tries to show through books and manuscripts not only what Scotland has given to the civilization of the world, but what it has received from it. The visitor will see how the balance of this account has varied through the years. In the Middle Ages and in early modem times, Scotland owed a deep intellectual and cultural debt to foreign countries, particularly France, and many of the medieval manuscripts and early printed books on display, though preserved and treasured in this country, have come from abroad. Likewise, the beginnings of printing in Scotland are little more than an off- shoot of earlier developments in France. In the 17th century, beginning perhaps with Napier's discovery of logarithms, Scotland starts to repay its debts, and by the end of the 18th century the Scottish contribution to philosophy,…

Hambledon Press, London, first edition, 1991. Cloth, 8vo,. xi, 242 pp. From the blurb: "The history of medieval and indeed later law has mostly been written in national terms with little reference to other countries and other systems. This has restricted the study of comparative legal history and reinforced the prejudices of each nation as to the uniqueness of its code. R.C. Van Caenegem..is one of the few legal historians to have crossed national boundaries successfully. His knowledge of the various codes and customs of the European Continent in general and the Low Countries in particular enables him to bring a fresh eye to the English Common Law, as in his comparison of the administration of criminal law under King Henry II of England and under Philip of Alsace (1157-91) and his discussion of the public prosecution of crime in medieval England. Widening the scale of enquiry he describes the methods of proof in medieval European law, where jury and inquest came to replace the ordeals, and…

Garland Publishing Inc., New York, first edition, 1990. Edition of 150 copies. Cloth, 4to, 29 cm,. xxiv, 980 pp, plates. 1261 entries. From the introduction: "While the Gernons placed no strict limits on time or place of publication for the books they acquired - the dates range from 1475 to 1962 and there are a few Canadian, Mexican, Indian, and Japanese imprints as well as those from Britain and European countries - the bulk of the collection is composed of books published between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries in Britain, France, Germany and Italy. ..It remains to stress that this is a bibliographic catalogue of a particular collection of books and that the copies described are the copies in hand. In contrast with earlier catalogues in this tradition, notably those of Georges Vicaire, Katherine Bitting, Andre Simon, and Erna Horn and Dr. Julius Arndt, which are on the order of short-title lists, a full bibliographical description, including a complete quasi-facsimile transcription of…

Lilly Library, Indiana University, Bloomington, first edition, 1990. Printed wrappers, 4to, 28 cm,. 138 pp, ills. To commemorate the two-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary of the publication of Samuel Richardson's Pamela, we decided to mount an exhibition of British novels from Pamela to the present..... It is a suggestion to readers that they look beyond the well-known greats and enjoy discovering some of the good novels by secondary writers. .... To understand the background against which the great novels were written it is necessary to know the minor, and indeed the very minor, works. For that reason this exhibition includes a number of books there never is time to teach in the classroom but, nevertheless, form part of the long and rich history of the British novel." An excellent discursive survey of the novel in the two and a half centuries from 'Pamela', followed by an "Alphabetical List by Author and Title of the 521 Novels Discussed in the Catalog". Slightly…

Thames and Hudson, first UK edition, 1983. Cloth, 4to, 29 cm,. 341 pp, 158 ills, 27 in colour. From the blurb - "Decorated letters, penned calligraphic flourishes, subtle and elaborate borders, richly coloured miniatures - the brilliant visual elements of the illuminated manuscripts used by the Christian church in the Middle Ages have long fascinated both scholars and a much wider audience. Previous attempts to reproduce isolated pages or details from a large selection of such books, or even to popularize a single manuscript, have usually meant that the illuminations have been misleadingly presented as detached phenomena rather than functional objects whose decoration was directly related to their use. In this authoritative and innovative study, Professor Calkins has selected a variety of Bibles, liturgical books and devotional books for the laity to show the evolution of manuscript illumination throughout Europe. He ranges from the major monuments of Anglo-Irish or Insular illumination in the…

From the introduction: "I have, as far as possible, followed the path of each of the Explorers, quoting occasionally from their various entries, so as to enable the impartial reader to form his own estimate of each man from his own writings. The opposite views they sometimes take of the same scenes -notably in the case of Captain Sturt and Sir Thomas Mitchell - will be found interesting and instructive. Such comments as I have made from time to time are, for the most part, either explanatory, or suggested by subsequent events. My aim has been to make the book readable and popular, rather than statistical and scientific. Covers a little rubbed and rather soiled from handling. one 2 inch closed tear to edge of map and a few edge-chips, minor spotting to map, foxing to endpapers, contents…
