 - A Seasonable Treatise on the Scholars Reasonable Addresses

Title: A Seasonable Treatise on the Scholars Reasonable Addresses
Description: Not Stated, Printed for the Author, 1678. Hardback. A very scarce late seventeenth century religious treatise criticising pluralism and misuse of church finances in Great Britain. A fascinating and bold tract criticising pluralism and misuse of church finances in late seventeenth-century England. Pluralism is the political philosophy that recognises diversity in a society and permits individuals of different races, social classes, religions, and beliefs to coexist in a community. This tract in particular criticises pluralities resulting in sacrilege and sinning in the Anglican Church, according to the author's view. This work is unauthored, though it is sometimes attributed to John Harding. This work cites and makes use of several important works that were circulating in Great Britain during this time, including Sir Edward Coke's 'Institutes of the Ancient Laws of England', Sir Henry Spelman's 'de non temerandis Ecclesiis', and Sir Simon Degge's 'Ichabod: Or the Five Groans of the Church&apos.A very scarce work, held only in twenty-three institutional locations throughout the world. This copy was previously held at Edinburgh Libaries, and it contains a library stamp to the title page and to page 53. There is a very small contemporary ink inscription to the head of the title page. ESTC Citation No. R6170 Signature: A1-L3 Rebound in paper covered boards.
