Hardcover. Zustand: g. First London edition (?). Octavo. xxxi,336,[15]pp. Blind-tooled calf, black title-label with gold lettering. Raised bands. Binding protected by modern mylar. Frontispiece engraving of Thomas More. Title-page printed in red and black. Captivating account of the life of Sir Thomas More (1478-1535). More was an English lawyer, statesman, author, social philosopher as well as a noted Renaissance humanist. He was an important counselor to King Henry VIII and in the last years of his life serves as Lord Chancellor. More opposed Henry VIII separation from the papal church and denied that the king was the Supreme Head of the Church of England. In 1534 he was imprisoned in the Tower of London for his refusal to take the oath required by the First Succession Act which was passed by the Parliament of England in March 1534. The oath acknowledged the anti-Papal powers of Parliament in matters of religion. A year after More was arrested he was tried for treason and beheaded. Fifteen pages of Index in rear, as published. Front and rear boards almost detached but holding. Some age wear, staining and scuffing on binding. Head and tail of spine slightly chipped. Some water staining on front and rear endpapers. Sporadic foxing to first and last few pages & margins of leaves, usual rippling to pages. Binding in fair, interior in overall very good condition.

230 x 140 mm. (9 x 5 1/2"). lxiv, 376 pp.With a biographical preface, notes, and other illustrations, by the Rev. Joseph Hunter, F.S.A. ESPECIALLY ATTRACTIVE MAROON MOROCCO, GILT, BY CHAMBOLLE-DURU (stamp-signed on front turn-in), covers with French fillet borders, raised bands, spine compartments with central flower bouquet, floral spray cornerpieces, gilt lettering, densely gilt turn-ins, marbled endpapers, all edges gilt. With coat of arms on title page, engraved frontispiece portrait after Holbein, and a woodcut of the More home, Barnborough, in the text. Keynes, p. 69; Lowndes II, 1603. âSpine and thin strip at top of front board sunned to brown, but AN ESPECIALLY FINE COPY, clean, fresh, and bright internally with extremely ample margins, in a lustrous binding with few signs of wear. This is a handsomely bound copy of the biography of the author of "Utopia" and a major figure in the political, ecclesiastical, and intellectual history of his time. A friend of Erasmus and a believer in church reform, Thomas More (1478-1535), served Henry VIII as chancellor, disagreed with the king's severance of ties with the Catholic Church, and was executed for his refusal to acknowledge Henry as Supreme Head of the Church of England. First printed in Douai between 1626 and 1631 without explicit attribution of authorship, this memoir had a rather vague original preface that gave the impression its author was More's great-grandson and namesake Thomas (1565-1625). Our edition sets the record straight, properly crediting another great-grandson, Cresacre More (1572-1649). DNB speculates that Cresacre, a recusant perhaps fearing retaliation, deliberately obfuscated the issue. An ardent Catholic, Cresacre dedicated his work to the French queen of Charles I, Henriette Marie. The biography, which includes a number of letters written by More to his family, has always been considered a principal source for More's career. The binding here is a perfect example of the kind of beautifully done French classical work produced for an extended period under the name of Chambolle. A rough contemporary of, and certainly the equal in technique to, binders like Trautz, Marius-Michel Père, Lortic, and Cuzin, the elder Chambolle served his apprenticeship under Hippolyte Duru and later formed a partnership with him, as is clear from the stamped signature on our two volumes. Duncan & De Bartha says that this collaboration began "at some point" and implies that the partnership was formed sometime after Chambolle established a premises at 20 rue de Savoie in 1873. Chambolle's son continued the business when his father retired in 1898; according to Duncan and De Bartha, although the firm "showed a cautious recognition of the . . . preoccupation with Art Nouveau," classical work was always the mainstay of the Chambolle bindery. Our Large Paper Copy is 20 mm. taller than the regular edition, as recorded by Keynes, and the spacious margins set off Pickering's printing very nicely. First Pickering Edition.
