Description
« Saint Leger” [but Leiden]: “Noel and Jaques Chartier” [but Elzevir], 1668. THIRD EDITION. Engraved frontispiece. Contemporary stiff vellum, manuscript spine title. Early attribution inscription on the title. A fine copy. Third edition of this biting satirical biography of the Bishop of Melito, a Jew born in Turkey in the 2nd century CE who converted to Christianity, supposedly compiled by Pithois from the writings of Camus. The text denounces monastic life and monks as lazy, vain, and corrupt, hoarding wealth in the name of false charity and divine intercession. It is written in the form of a missive to Hermodore, the fictional author of the Secret Interviews, another damning critique of the holy orders first published in 1634. This title was placed on the Index in 1681. Rahir 2355; see Dorbon 1982.

Description
London: Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co., Ltd, 1925. Hardcover. Very Good. Hardcover. Includes 36 color plates and 48 in text illustrations. "In these days it is unnecessary to say how bold a German publisher must be, to give so many coloured plates, at a time when with us all economic ideas are upside down. I hope this boldness will be rewarded. When we were excavating Ashur the wish became stronger, with every new find of this coloured Assyrian art, one day to convey the discoveries to posterity complete and as unaltered as possible. Photography alone did not suffice for this; as far as possible every piece was copied in water-colours immediately after being found, and later we took the trouble to take colour photographs with Lumiere plates" (page 77). A folio bound in olive green buckram boards with gilt and leather title label to spine. Bumping to corners, wear to spine ends, wear to edges, minor soiling to boards, and rubbing to spine. Chipping to leather spine label. Bookplate to front pastedown. Evidence of removed library sticker to foot spine and evidence of removed library marking to rear free endpaper. Clean, bright interior aside from occasional light finger smudges to margins and minor browning to margins of plates. Tissue guards are present; however, some have creases and tears. 78 pages of text plus plates to rear. ART/021921.
