Octavo; with bookplate and neat perforated stamps of the Sydney Mechanic's School of Arts; in contemporary half red morocco. Sydney-printed facsimile and translation of the earliest "derivative" printing of a Quirós Memorial. Following the presentation Memorials, a few so-called "derivative" editions appeared in Spain, editions…by private printers based on the "Eighth Memorial" that Quirós had presented to the King in 1609. The first of these derivative editions was published in Pamplona in 1610: the facsimile published here is based on the Mitchell Library's copy, with an introductory essay by William Duncan. It was this Eighth Memorial that, after being printed unofficially in three editions in Spain, was translated and published in numerous editions overseas, abridged and anthologised. Virtually all of the later versions of Quirós are ultimately descended from the 1609 Memorial, including the early English, French, German and Dutch editions, as well as Latin versions. Versions by anthologists such as De Bry, Gerritsz, Megiser, Hulsius, Purchas, Commelin, Harris, De Brosses, Dalrymple and Fleurieu all derive from this; the full listing of printed editions of the Eighth Memorial made by Celsus Kelly (Calendar of Documents, Madrid, 1965: Table D, pp.49-50) runs to 72 entries. . A little spotting, rubbed. A good copy.
