Satirisches Gedicht aus der Zeit des Englischen Bürgerkrieges. Samuel Butler (1612-1680), erklärter Royalist, setzte vor allem die "Roundheads", die Anhänger des Parlaments ins Lächerliche, und, wenn auch in milderer Form, die Partei Karls I. Mit der Titelfigur, Ritter Sir Hudibras (Presbyterianer) schuf Butler eine Titelfigur von pastoser Grobheit, die ständig mit seinem Knappen, einem Independenten, im Streit liegt. Diese "schärfste und derbste Verspottung des Puritanismus seiner Zeit" (KNLL III,424) soll sogar von König Karl II. häufiger zitiert worden sein. - William Hogarth (1697-1764), Maler u. Graphiker, prangerte in brillanten sozialkritischen Gemälden u. Kupferstichen die (Un-) Sitten u. Gebräuche seiner Zeit schonungslos u. mit beißender Ironie an. - Leder beschabt, Vorderdeckel lose, Besitzvermerk von alter Hand aV (Richard Kelsall's Book 1771).…

Size: 8vo. xx, 280, [xxv (index)] pp. + xxix folding plates. Modern leather with old marbled boards, uncut. Tables. From the collection of Christopher Hogwood (1941-2014). Including a table showing the rates of beating of tempered 5ths on the various notes of the scale calculated for a series of pitches or performance the temperaments used are mean-tone and Smith's own system of equal harmony. It is significant that his approach to the problem of tuning a keyboard instrument was through the judgment of the musician's ear: he tried out his equal harmony on the harpsichord, and the first organ of the Foundling Hospital, with its system of alternative notes actuated by selective stops, is said to have been built under his directions. In several striking respects he anticipated Helmholtz, who, however, did not know his work. Second edition. RISM B/VI/2 p.788. Gregory p.255.
