A political pamphlet in verse celebrating peace and dated less than a month before the signing of the Twelve Years' Truce between Spain and the Dutch Republic. The main poem takes the form of a "codicil" to War's "last will and testament." It recites the various legacies, both good and bad, that the War has left to people on both sides and even to people and countries not directly involved in the fighting. Asher mistakenly lists the present pamphlet as no. 11 in the Bye-Korf series: it was published about six months after the Bye-Korf was banned, but later collectors often inserted it and the associated Testament in place of the earlier Testament, which should have been Asher 26-28/10. The author, place of publication and publisher given on the title-page are all word plays, "Yemand van Waer-Mond" for example suggesting "someone of honest mouth." The STCN attributes the pamphlet with a query to Nierop, who propagandized against peace in one of the Bye-Korf pamphlets (Asher 28/37) but rejoiced in it once it came. Alden & Landis attributes the associated Testament ofte Wtersten Wille to Middelgeest. The poet's four-line verse on the back of the title-page is signed with the motto: "Yet Meer en mocht/Min en docht Niet."A nice view of popular feelings about the Truce, just before it formally took effect.With some tears at the fold of the outermost bifolium and only slightly browned, otherwise a very good copy.l Asher 26-28/11; Knuttel 1584; Simoni W 34; Tiele 751; OCLC WorldCat (3 copies). Disbound. Poems celebrating the truce with Spain (though attributed to a former opponent of the truce), with the Dutch poems in textura types and Latin marginal notes in roman. Pages: [12] pp.…

Shortly abbreviated edition of an important and renowned pamphlet in the history in the VOC, written by the lawyer Simon van Middelgeest, about whom less is known. It is a complaint against the management, the so-called "Heren XVII" of the Dutch East India Company (VOC), by the sharesholders who felt their concerns were being ignored. It is one of the many anonymous polemic pamphlets published by the so-called "doleanten" (participants, shareholders) in which they express their grievances on the self-enrichment and abuses of the "Heren XVII" of the VOC. It is a shortened edition of a 1622 pamphlet titled Nootwendich discours oft vertooch aan de hooch-mogende heeren Staten Generaal van de participanten der Oost-Indische Compagnie tegens bewintshebbers (Knuttel 3348; Landwehr VOC, 884), which was reprinted several times under different titles including the present. The publishers frequently changed the title because the States of Holland published a proclaimation prohibited Van Middelgeest's Nootwendich discours in 1622 (Knuttel 3349). With the bookplate of professor Dr. Willy L. Braekman on the front paste-down. Leaves very slightly browned, otherwise in very good condition.l Knuttel 3585a; Landwehr VOC 911; Sabin 99316; STCN (4 copies); USTC 1034730 (5 copies, including the same 4). Modern half red faux snake-skin, white paper sides, manuscript title on front board, new endpapers and paste-downs. With a small woodcut on the title-page. Set in textura types with incidental roman.
