Description
London: J.R. for Nath. Ekins, 1672. With engraved portrait of author opposite title page by F.H. Van Houe. Half-leather and marbled boards; first 6 leaves loose, otherwise, interior good with numerous contemporary annotations. Sixth edition, the last to be corrected and enlarged by the author. Browne's work is divided into seven books which contain his numerous observations and experiments in physics, comparative anatomy and biology. It "contains an extraordinary amount of learning and research dispelling many superstitious beliefs. To modern readers his Vulgar errors, as it was amusingly referred to, represents an inexhaustible store of entertainment. The attainment of scientific truth was not for Browne the sole object; it is in the discussion itself that he delights, and the more marvelous a fable is, the more sedulously he applies himself to the investigation of its truth" (DNB). Despite this, Browne (1605-82) was not above credulous faith: he believed in astrology, alchemy, witchcraft, and magic. The work has become a literary classic and includes the first appearance in English of the term "electricity." Also included is the seventh edition of Religio medici (A doctor's religion). One of the most famous and influential treatises in the English language, it represents Browne's attempt to arrive at a vital concept of faith, one with tolerance, humour and dignity.

S. l.: s. n., 1876. Very good. Lithographed broadside, n. d. (ca 1876); 11 3/4 x 16 1/2; thick, card stock backing; a few small spots of foxing to margins; several small, closed cuts to edges; in about very good condition. Published by at least two publishers - Currier & Ives in New York and S. Lipschitz & Son in London (the current copy published anonymously - possibly pirated), the humorous image was created by prolific magazine and book illustrator and one of the foremost artists for Currier & Ives - New York-native Thomas Worth (1834 - 1917). He would be best remembered for his comical genre scenes; however, it has also been said that his depictions of African-Americans were usually racist and demeaning. The current broadside pictured a boy with a big cigar in his mouth, on a galloping donkey, with baying dogs following.
