About this Item
3 works in 1 volume. Three works from the early 17th century bound together. The first work is a popular illustrated history of Poland with portraits of monarchs, theologians and emperors, each with a short biography added, by Salomon Neugebauer (1611-1654).The second work is the first edition edited by the jurist Sybren Siccama (1571-1622), of a legal work with the laws of Friesland. The first edition, based on a now lost manuscript, was printed in 1557.The third work is a rare anti-Venetian pamphlet in Italian written on the occasion of the Uskok War (1615-1618). This war was waged by Venice against a group of Balkan pirates (Uskoks or Croatian-Habsburg soldiers), which was stationed by the Habsburg ruler Archduke Ferdinand of Styria (1578-1637) (later Ferdinand II) along its frontiers as part of its military borders. The Venetian-Habsburg conflict eventually involved troops from all-over Europe, with Venice, the Dutch United Provinces and England on one side, and the Austrian and Spanish Habsburgs on the other. The pamphlet includes an anti-Venetian Latin oration given in Rome by the French diplomat Louis Hélian in 1510.Tear in one leaf of the second work, otherwise in very good condition.l Ad.1: BLC STC German (17th cent.)
