(194 pp.) Printed in double columns. 9" x 12". Reprinted 2004 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. ISBN-13: 9781584774068. ISBN-10: 1584774061. Hardcover. New. $49.95 * Reprint of the fifth edition, the second edited by Manley [1628-1690]. The Interpreter is considered to be the best law dictionary published before Jacob's A New Law-Dictionary (1729). Though its significance was recognized almost immediately, it was not approved by all. At a time when Parliament and crown were vying for power, the Commons were angered by John Cowell's [1554-1611] monarchical orientation, which was evident in such definitions as "King," "Parliament," "Prerogative," "Recoveries," and "Subsidies." When a joint committee of Lords and Councilors reviewed the work, the ensuing controversy nearly halted the affairs of government. James I intervened in fear that his own fiscal interests would not be approved by Parliament, and ordered a proclamation that imprisoned Cowell, suppressed the book and ordered all copies burned by a public hangman on March 10, 1610.

A handsome copy. $500. * Augmented reissue of Manley's second edition, 1684. The Interpreter was the standard law dictionary until Jacob's A New Law-Dictionary (1729). However, its publication in 1607 provoked intense controversy. At a time when Parliament and James I were vying for power, the House of Commons was angered by Cowell's royalist sympathies, which were evident in such definitions as "King," "Parliament," "Prerogative," "Recoveries," and "Subsidies." When a joint committee of Lords and Councilors reviewed the work, the ensuing controversy nearly halted the affairs of government. The king intervened in fear that his own fiscal interests would not be approved by Parliament, and ordered a proclamation that imprisoned Cowell, suppressed the book and ordered all copies burned by a public hangman on March 10, 1610. It remained in use, however, and it went through several editions. Later enlarged editions, such as this one, are valuable references for scholars of early English legal texts.
