About the author:Gilbert Burnet (18 September 1643 - 17 March 1715) was a Scottish philosopher and historian, and Bishop of Salisbury. He was fluent in Dutch, French, Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. Burnet was highly respected as a cleric, a preacher, an academic, a writer and a historian. He was always closely associated with the Whig party, and was one of the few close friends in whom King William III confided.[Source: Wiki]About the work:He next undertook, at the suggestion of Sir William Jones, the attorney-general, his 'History of the Reformation in England,' for which Evelyn contributed some materials. For a while he was hindered in his researches in the Cotton Library by Lauderdale's influence and misrepresentation of his object, but after the publication of the first volume he was granted free access. This publication, however, did not take place until 1679, when, the country being in the throes of the popish terror, the spirit in which the work is written caused it to receive so enthusiastic a welcome, that the thanks of both houses were given to him, with a request that he would complete the work. The second volume appeared in 1681, with equal applause; it is said that the historical portion was written in the space of six weeks; the third and last volume was published in 1714; the abridgment of the whole work in 1719.[Source: WikiSource, taken from Dictionary of National Biography, 1885-1900, Volume 07 - Burnet, Gilbert by Osmund Airy].

Add to basketFull Leather. Condition: Very Good. Full-Leather. No Jacket. Fourth Edition [1st 1692]. Privately Printed. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. An enduring treatise on the duties of pastors to their flocks. At random, from this book: "There is another sort of sick Persons, who abound more in Towns than in the Country; those are the troub…led in Mind; of these there are two Sorts, some have committed erroneous Sins, which kindle a Storm in their Consciences; and that ought to be Cherished till they have compleated a Repentance proportioned to the Nature and Degree of their Sin. If Wrong has been done to another, Reparation and Restitution must be made to the utmost of the Party's Power. If Blood has been shed, a long Course of Fasting and Prayer; a total Abstinence from Wine, if Drunkenness gave the Rise to it; a making up the Loss to the Family on which it has befallen, must be enjoyned." The book's 244 pages are filled with ancient wisdom as pertinent now as then. Full Contemporary calf in handsome condition: rich patina, five raised bands on spine with gilt decorations and clear Morocco label. All pages and end pages present. Gilt decorations on cover-edges. Minor professional restoration at spine's head. Interior crisp with almost no browning or foxing. Some bumps, rounded corners, all making for the book's character. Tightly bound.

Ex-libr…is 'puro de fonte Spring Casborne', Rev John Spring Casborne of Newe House in the village of Pakenham, Suffolk. Newe House was built in 1622 by Sir Robert Bright, in the late 1640s it was sold to Sir William Spring, who had been a prominent Parliamentarian during the Civil War. The house remained in the Spring family until the mid-nineteenth century, being used as the family dower house. The Spring family coat-of-arms is still apparent above the main door to the manor.Wing (CD-ROM, 1996), B5792; Gilbert Burnet (16431715), bishop of Salisbury and historian. '. In the meantime, in autumn 1699 Burnet had published An Exposition of the Thirty-Nine Articles of the Church of England. The Exposition could be considered the logical extension of Burnet's discourse on the Trinity. In it he applied a latitudinarian epistemology not just to the Trinity, but to all the doctrinal articles of the church. It was also intimately connected with his History of the Reformation. If his History of the Reformation was an attempt to rewrite English church history from the perspective of a late seventeenth-century latitudinarian divine, then his Exposition was its theological counterpart. Burnet himself described his Exposition as a 'proper addition to the History of the Reformation, to explain and prove the doctrine that was then established' (Bishop Burnet's History, 658). As the logical extension of both his Four Discourses and his History of the Reformation, the Exposition was one of Burnet's most important works, and one which the high-church party could hardly ignore for long .'
