Description
London: Robert Barker, 1601. Folio (approx. 12.5" x 8.5"). Second edition of Fulke's New Testament with the Rheims and the Bishops' version in parallel columns. An important work that predates the printing of the King James Bible, upon which it had a significant influence. Description: General title page (1601) with architectural border. Sixty-two lines to the full column. Twenty-one preliminary leaves. Text in two columns with the Rheims translation in Roman type and the Bishops' version in italics. All of the marginal notes, chapter arguments, and annotations of the 1582 Rheims are reprinted, and interspersed with the Confutations. Woodcut initials, head and tailpieces. Collation: A-Z^6, Aa-Zz^6, Aaa-Zzz^6, Aaaa-Kkkk^8, Llll^8. Complete. Binding: Rebacked in brown calf. Board with gilt-paneled border. Spine with six recessed band and previous gilt decorated spine laid down. Marbled endpapers. All edges gilt. Rubbed and scuffed with bumped corners. Condition: Bookplate of Charles Delaet to front pastedown. Pages crips, clean, and bright throughout. Note: Gregory Martin (1542-1582), translator of the Rheims New Testament, and William Fulke (1536-1589), Protestant apologist, had been engaged in debate since 1582 when Martin published A Discovery of the Manifold Corruptions of the Holy Scriptures by the Heretics. Fulke had answered twenty-one Roman Catholic works since 1558 and issued a response to Martin (A Defense) the following year in 1583. Fulke was described by a contemporary as "that profound, ready, and resolute doctor, the hammer of heretics, the champion of truth". He was fully committed to the idea that the Pope and the Church of Rome were the Antichrist and much of his work involves point-by-point unpicking of Catholic theology. Fulke's ultimate response to Martin's claims was the parallel New Testament or Confutation against the Rheims' text with many annotations. To accomplish this work, he lodged with two assistants for nine months in 1587. The resulting controversy between Fulke and Martin brough the Rheims text into the limelight and to the notice of the committee of translators for the King James Bible. References: Herbert 265.
