Description:
1781 1ed Captain James Cook Voyage Australia Zealand Hawaii Pacific MAP Rickman"Remember, the greater the opportunity, the fewer are those who see it." – James Cook James Cook was an 18th-century British explorer known for these three major world voyages. The third Pacific voyage, which began in 1776, took Cook and his crew around New Zealand and Hawaii. On this trip, Cook became well acquainted with the King of Hawaii, Kalani-opu'u. After spending time in the South Pacific, Cook also took his ship northward to the Aleutian Islands reaching to the Arctic Circle. Cook eventually died upon his return to Hawaii, after angering the King of Hawaii. According to Hill, who does not note this rare Dublin edition, states:"This anonymous journal, of Captain Cook's third voyage, was once believed to have been written by John Ledyard, who had actually made liberal use of Lieutenant Rickman's account; hence the confusion. This narrative anticipated the government's authorized account by two years. All the…

1675 Don Quixote de la Mancha Cervantes Thomas Shelton English FOLIO Chivalry
"One of those universal works which are read by all ages at all times."
– Printing and the Mind of Man, on 'Don Quixote'
Miguel de Cervantes's 'Don Quixote' is one of the most famous works of literature and is one of the most popular adventure tales to be written. It was first translated into English in 1612 by Thomas Shelton who, according to Chisholm, created a "racy, spirited rending of the original" even though it was initially filled with translation errors. However, the DNB states that Shelton's translation "realizes Cervantes' manner more nearly than any successor". It should be noted that Shelton's English was not only the first English translation but the first translation of 'Don Quixote' in any language!
The Shelton edition was published again in 1652, on which this 1675 third edition was fully based. Both parts printed in one tome as originally intended by Scot and Basset. Thomas Shelton's English was the standard English printing of this work for more than 120 years until Charles Jervas' translation appeared.

1499 Mantuanus Poetry + 1507 Satires of Persius Post-Incunable Satyrae ROME Roce Along with Juvenal, Persius was one of the greatest 1st century Roman satirists. His works consisted of elements of stoicism and were greatly influenced by Horace and Juvenal, in fact the satires of both Juvenal and Persius are often found published together. In his 'Satires', Persius sought a few major philosophical ideas:
·
important questions to ask the gods
·
the meaning of life
·
the importance of gaining knowledge
·
freedom through Stoicism
·
the proper use of money
This 1507 post-incunable printing of Persius's 'Satyrae' was published in Paris by Jean Barbier and Denis Roce. This edition was edited by Giovanni Britannico, a 15th-century grammarian who is best known for his edition of Persius.
