London: Printed for S. Lowndes, 1673. Foundations of English Contract Law: A Technical Masterpiece on Medieval Marriage and Land Grants Mainwaring, Sir Thomas [1623-1689]. A Reply to an Answer to the Defence of Amicia, Daughter of Hugh Cyveliok Earl Of Chester. Wherein it is Proved, That the Reasons Alleadged by Sir Peter Leicester, In His Former Book, And Also in His Said Answer, Concerning the Illegitimacy of the Said Amicia, Are Invalid, And of No Weight At All. London: Printed for S. Lowndes, 1673. [ii], 105, [1] pp. Octavo (6-1/2" x 4"). Modern calf, blind rules to boards, gilt title to spine, endpapers renewed.

This tract is a cornerstone of the "Amicia Controversy," a high-profile 17th-century dispute over the legitimacy of Amicia, daughter of the Earl of Chester. Triggered by Sir Peter Leycester's Historical Antiquities (1673), the conflict erupted into a "vicious pamphlet war" of 15 tracts published over six years. Both Mainwaring and Leycester were trained at Gray's Inn, and their arguments are cited by modern scholars as a milestone in English historiography. Rather than a simple family feud, the tracts represent a sophisticated legal debate on early common-law authorities and 12th-century contract law regarding land grants in "free marriage." The issue was eventually escalated to the justices of Chester, who issued a final ruling in Mainwaring's favor. This specific tract is essential for those interested in English legal history or genealogy. English Short-Title Catalogue R10002. London: Printed for S. Lowndes, 1673. (illustrator).…

8vo (160 x 114mm), pp. [ii], 105; title page in red and black; a good copy in contemporary calf, rather rubbed on spine (upper joint weak). 19th century inscription: 'C. Tollet from Mr Wicksted'. First and only edition. This is part of a debate between the two antiquaries Sir Thomas Mainwaring (1623-89) and Sir Peter Leycester. Orginally a supporter of the parliamentary side in the Civil War, Mainwaring came over to the royalists before 1660, and was created a baronet at the Restoration. His obsession with this debate about the legitimacy of the daughter of Hugh of Cyfeliog (1147-81) sprang from the fact that Amicia (or Amice), the Earl's daughter, had married an ancestor of his, Ranulf Mainwaring of Chester. Mainwaring's biographer in ODNB makes the interesting point that the dedication and learning of the two antagonists in this debate encouraged a new approach to history: 'Eventually their arguments ranged over much of the social and political life of the twelfth century, and in so doing represented a milestone in historiography. These antagonistsboth possessed of legal training, antiquarian zeal, and significant personal munimentswere able to urge each other, and occasionally themselves, to interpret twelfth-century material from the viewpoint of a twelfth-century nobleman, and not as a quaint aberration'.
