An Occasional Discourse, Preached . in York, Jan. 27, 1788 on the Subject of the African Slave Trade.This work is part of a late eighteenth century movement to abolish the slave trade that culminated with the Slave Trade Act in 1807.

The Society pursued these proposals by writing and publishing anti-slavery books, abolitionist prints, posters and pamphlets, and organizing lecture tours in towns and cities. Small 4to. Brown gilt tooled ½-calf with marbled boards. York: A. Ward, 1788. First Edition. Sabin 45485.Some chipping and soiling, o/w Fine.

Description:
Hardcover. Fine. Illustrated with engraved vignette on title page. 4to. Modern half-leather-backed marbled boards. London: Printed for R. Dodsley at Tullys Head in Pall-Mall . . . 1745. First Edition. Unlike his Pleasures of the Imagination, but very much like his Whiggish politics, Akensides Odes met with a dismissive reception from Samuel Johnson in his Lives of the Poets. Posterity, though, has been notably kinder, and both Wordsworth and Coleridge acknowledged the influence that Akensides Odes had upon the development of their own poetry. A fine copy with wide margins.

Title printed within an elaborate woodcut historiated border; 6 woodcuts in text at the opening of each Satire; plus woodcut white-on-black decorated and historiated initials of various sizes, including a 17-line initial 'S' on A4v. Text in roman letter, surrounded by commentary printed in smaller roman and occasional Greek type. Text in Latin (commentaries with many passages in Greek). Folio. Bound in modern period-style, blind-tooled, ¼-leather over wooden boards; printed paper label in gothic script on cover. Printed in Venice by Bernardino Viani, 15 December 1520. (Adams P-736; Sander 5569; Panzer VIII 461, 127; Schweiger II, p.708).Based on the 1516 Venice edition by Johannes Rubeus Vercellensis. The text of Persius' Satires is surrounded with commentaries by the noted Renaissance humanists Johannes Baptista Plautius, Johannes Britannicus, and Bartholomaeus Fontius, as well as those ascribed (perhaps spuriously) to Persius' friend, the Stoic philosopher Lucius Annaeus Cornutus. The woodcuts… Read More
