Knolles' History of the Turks 3rd ed. 1621

Item Details

Description

Heading:
Author: Knolles, Richard
Title: The Generall Historie of the Turkes, from the first beginning of that nation to the rising of the Othoman Familie
Place Published: London
Publisher:Adam Islip
Date Published: 1621
Description:

[12], 1396, [40] pp. (Lacks initial blank). With 30 engraved portraits and one view of bridge over Danube, by Laurence Johnson. (Folio) early calf, front board rehinged. Third edition.

First published in 1603, Knolles' work earned the praise of Samuel Johnson: "None of our writers can, in my opinion, justly contest the superiority of Knolles, who, in his History of the Turks, has displayed all the excellencies that narration can admit. His style, is pure, nervous, elevated, and clear" (Rambler, No. 122). And Byron, shortly before his death, wrote, "Old Knolles was one of the first books that gave me pleasure when a child; and I believe it... gave perhaps the oriental colouring which is observed in my poetry" (DNB). The fine medallion portraits of the Turkish kings, emperors and sultans together with their (mostly) Christian adversaries, were adapted from Jean Jacques Boissard's Vitae et Icones Sultanorum (1596) by Lawrence Johnson. ESTC S112918; STC 15053; Blackmer 919 (1st edition).

Condition

Binding rubbed, loss to leather at corners and spine tips; pages toned and occasionally foxed, a few annotated; repairs on 2H1 (with stain) and 5G1; plate on 2Z2 upside-down; overall very good.
