Folio (260 x 360). 5 parts in one volume. 3, 4, 84 ff. 123 ff. 132 ff. 80 ff. 102, (2) ff. (with several repairs and facsimile leaves, see condition report). Woodcut title-pages to every part, smaller woodcuts and decorative initials throughout. 19th-century black morocco, gilt. A Reformation milestone: the first complete Bible in English authorised for use in churches, in its rare third edition, the second to bear a preface from Thomas Cranmer. Also a major step in the development of modern English, it represented a crucial bridge between the banned earlier translation by Tyndale and the King James Version. - This volume also offers a stark visual reminder of the tempestuous landscape of power in Tudor England: the frontispiece depicts the enthroned Henry VIII at the top, entrusting the Word of God to Archbishop Thomas Cranmer and his Chancellor, Thomas Cromwell. In the middle, these in turn distribute it to the clergy and the laity; while at the bottom, the common people proclaim "Vivat Rex" (Long live the King), aside from three figures who are locked in prison. In June 1540, a mere month before this volume was printed, Cromwell had fallen from grace and was swiftly executed. - In 1534, Henry VIII and Archbishop Cranmer enlisted the services of ten bishops to create a Bible in English, to counteract the influence of Tyndale's translation of the New Testament, which had been forbidden due to its Lutheran influences. As progress was slow, Thomas Cromwell charged the translator and Bishop of Exeter Myles Coverdale with the production of the so-called "Great Bible", a copy which was to be kept in every church for the religious edification of the parishioners. - Coverdale worked from the Latin Vulgate and German translations rather than Greek and Hebrew, and seven editions were published in quick succession between 1539 and 1541; this third edition (July 1540) was the first to be printed in London only, rather than Paris as well. The Great Bible remained the standard authorised version of Holy Scripture in the Anglican Church until 1568, when the so-called Bishops' Bible was finally ready, which was in turn succeeded by the King James Version in 1611. In spite of this, the 1662 Book of Common Prayer cites the Psalms from the Great Bible rather than the King James. - Roughly 9000 Great Bibles were produced between 1539 and 1541, but they are now rarities, particularly complete ones in good condition. This exemplar was part of the rare Bible collections of the American philanthropist and bibliophile Estelle Doheny, as well as the theologian Charles Caldwell Ryrie. - An outstanding landmark in the history of the Reformation as well as the English language. - General title, two leaves containing the calendar at the beginning and final two leaves containing end of text, table and colophon in facsimile, fore-margin [Maltese cross]1 renewed touching shoulder note, [Maltese cross]3 restored with facsimile penwork, [Maltese cross]4 with margins restored affecting headline, long tear crossing text on a5 repaired, lacks blank O4, outer margins of DD3 and DD6 restored with some shoulder notes in pen facsimile, long tear to bottom margin of RR6 repaired not affecting text, lower corner of woodcut border of Aaa1 in facsimile, lower margin of Kk1 restored with some text in facsimile, fore-margin of Mm2 repaired with shoulder notes and a few letters in facsimile, margins of several leaves at the end renewed with some letters in facsimile, some other leaves with minor marginal repairs occasionally touching shoulder notes or catchwords, several headlines shaved or cropped, residual staining and soiling. 19th century blank morocco panelled gilt, elaborate gilt dentelles, vellum linings, spine lettered and decorated gilt, edges gilt; joints rubbed. - 1) Lower margin of pts.

4to (176 x 240 mm). (12), 590, (2), 218 (instead of 221), 25-36, (2) pp.; several maps. A heavily annotated and Illustrated copy, with 92 watercolour sketches and numerous photographs and other inserted material pasted in. Bound in original black pebbled cloth, backstrip lettered in gilt. Preserved in a conservation solander box with leather label. The British artist Edward Clifford's Bible with an inscription by Saint Damien of Molokai: a heavily worked and extraordinarily personal copy of Bagster's English Polyglot Bible, transformed by the owner into a hybrid of devotional book, travel diary, sketch-album, and memorial volume, and inscribed by Damien at Kalawao on 20 December 1888, only months before his death. - The blank leaf after the title bears Damien's ink inscription: "I was sick and Ye visited me / J Damien De Veuster / Kalavao Molokai Dec. 20th 1888". Throughout the volume Clifford added a remarkable assemblage of material, including 92 original watercolour sketches, photographs, clippings, autograph letters, manuscript notes, and diary entries, with subjects ranging across California, New Mexico, Kansas, Great Britain, Ireland, and, most importantly, Hawaii and Molokai. - The Hawaiian material is especially rich, with 17 views of Hawaii and Molokai and several dated sketches executed during Clifford's stay in the islands in 1888-89, including Molokai, Oahu, Manoa Valley, Kilauea, Makawao, and Honolulu. The volume also preserves inscriptions by Phillips Brooks, John Greenleaf Whittier, D. L. Moody, Juan B. Cabrera, Basil Wilberforce, Wilson Carlile, and other notable ecclesiastical and literary figures of the later 19th century. - Clifford, a deeply religious Victorian artist associated with Burne-Jones and the Church Army, travelled to India, Kashmir, and finally Hawaii in search of first-hand knowledge about leprosy and its treatment. His visit to Father Damien at the Molokai settlement made him (in 1889) the first biographer of the missionary, whose life and death had already become a defining international emblem of Christian charity and the care of the afflicted. - The diary entered by Clifford on the terminal blanks gives the present Bible an additional autobiographical dimension, recording appointments and journeys from 1867 onward, and specifically tracing his departure for America in October 1888, his arrival in Hawaii in December, and the months of renewed contact with Damien during the latter's final illness. The volume thus survives as a unique documentary witness to Clifford's encounter with Damien, and to the wider religious, artistic, and philanthropic networks through which that encounter was transmitted. - Damien's inscription in this Bible was itself well known and was reproduced in editions connected with Robert Louis Stevenson's celebrated defence of the priest. In its accumulated sketches, autographs, and travel notes, the present copy preserves not merely a reader's use of a Bible, but the making of a Victorian testimonial object around one of the most revered missionary figures of the 19th century. - A detailed list of illustrations and inserted material is available on request. - Binding rubbed and worn, especially at the backstrip, consistent with extensive travel and use. Internally much used and extensively augmented throughout with inserted, mounted, and annotated material. 11 leaves have been excised from the index at the end. - 1) Edward Clifford (1844-1907), owner, annotator, illustrator, and compiler of the present volume. - 2) Clive Farahar, UK manuscript dealer. - 3) European private collection. - OCLC 27316406.
