Item description from seller

The second Jmpression carefully corrected; with the Addition of Thousands of References never before printed. Folio. (1:) Titelblatt, (16), 223, (36) S.; (2:) Titelblatt, (16), 358, (32) S.; (3:) Titelblatt, (18), 341, (22) S. Zeitgemäßer Halblederband mit Buntpapierüberzug auf den Buchdeckeln. The author took his reports in French, and translated them into English for publication. It appears that he had a part of his manuscript published, selecting, as he says, "the fittest and choicest cases out of those reports which I have with no small care, labor and pains, collected together". The prefaces to the parts, or rather dedications, are curiosities in point of language and character of composition, eminently characteristic of the English style of writing in the early part of the seventeenth century. In this respect Bulstrode appears to have attempted to rival "that Leviathan of the Law" Lord Coke. Among others the reports have the imprimatur of Lord Hale, as follows- "I have perused divers cases in these reports, and I Think they are fit to be published." - Matthew Hale. There is a chasm in the pagination of the second part of the reports, but the book is perfect. (Marvin 158-159).

Store description

Wir haben uns zum Ziel gesetzt, jahrhundertealtes Wissen zu erhalten und zugänglich zu machen. Viele bedeutende juristische Werke des 15. - 19. Jahrhunderts sind kaum mehr zugänglich und oft schon so beschädigt, dass sie nicht mehr leserlich sind. Es kursieren schlechte Kopien, die als Vorlage für ein ernsthaftes Arbeiten am Text völlig ungeeignet sind. Wir haben uns darangemacht, diese Werke einzuscannen und in mühevoller Kleinarbeit nachzubearbeiten, so dass sie als gut leserlicher Reprint zur Verfügung stehen. Bei älteren Werken kommt es oft vor, dass durch Abrieb oder Wurmfrass Textstellen ergänzt werden müssen, hier haben wir keine Mühe gescheut, den Text so wiederherzustellen, dass er sich völlig ins Schriftbild eingliedert
