This tradition of using the prefix *Fitz*?which translates as "son of"?for English royal bastards continued under the Hanoverian dynasty: William IV, uncle to Queen Victoria, was himself the progenitor of numerous Fitzclarences.James Fitzjames (1670-1734), the fruit of the union between James II Stuart and Arabella Churchill, was created Duke of Berwick by his father in 1687. Appointed a Marshal of France in 1706, he was also granted the title of Duke of Fitz-James within the French peerage by Louis XIV in 1710. His eldest son founded the Spanish branch of the Dukes of Berwick?a line that, under the name Fitz-James Stuart, today holds several Grandeeships of Spain, including that of Duke of Alba. His younger son founded the French branch of the Dukes of Fitz-James, a line that distinguished itself over seven generations until its extinction in the mid-20th century.Fitzroy, Fitzcharles et Fitzjames furent les noms donnés par les deux fils du roi Charles Ier d'Angleterre à leur descendance illégitime. Cette tradition du préfixe Fitz pour les bâtards royaux anglais, qui se traduit par « fils de», se poursuivra sous la dynastie des Hanovre : Guillaume IV, oncle de la reine Victoria, fut en son temps l'auteur de nombreux Fitzclarence ?James Fitzjames (1670-1734) fruit des amours de Jacques II Stuart et d'Arabella Churchill, fut titré par son père duc de Berwick en 1687. Maréchal de France en 1706, il reçut également de Louis XIV le titre de duc de Fitz-James dans la pairie française en 1710. Son fils ainé est l'auteur de la branche espagnole des ducs de Berwick, qui sous le nom de Fitz-James Stuart, cumule aujourd'hui plusieurs grandesses d'Espagne, dont celle de duc d'Albe. Son fils cadet est l'auteur de la branche française des ducs de Fitz-James, qui s'illustra pendant sept générations, jusqu'à son extinction au milieu du XXe siècle.…

Modern leather, spine lettered in gilt DE SITUS ORBIS TERRANUM PESARO 1512, retaining 19th-century marbled wrappers that bear the excised arms of James Maidment (17931879), British antiquarian and literary collector (heraldry of three laurel slips on a chevron between three doves proper, armed crest, laid on front flyleaf); (margins cropped close affecting some marginalia, lightest spots on mostly the front text block edges (tabula), otherwise a complete and sound copy of this rare Latin geography). Extensive early Latin annotations, written in several hands, indexing the names of several mythological gods and goddesses (Athena, Proserpina, Cyclops, Romulus, and others) when the names show up in text, and names of geographical locations (Strongila /Strongylum), and natural history notations for elements "ignis" (fire) and minerals "Achates" (agate), "Corallium" (coral) as they are discussed in text; marginalia neatly ceasing on leaf XVI. Later pencil inscription recording the purchase from Sotheby's by Bernard Quaritch Ltd. (May 1925). Beautiful first folio edition of the De situ orbis terrarum by Girolamo Soncino (d. 1533), which he printed while active in Pesaro. The Soncino family specialized in printing Talmudic texts, especially Hebrew incunabula, and Girolamo (or Gershom) traveled extensively throughout his career in search of new manuscripts for his press. As fortune would have it, in 1512, Soncino produced this curious compendium of late antique knowledge written by the third-century Latin grammaticus Caius Julius Solinus (flourishing in Rome around 250 CE, or in following decades). The De situ orbis terrarum, originally titled the Polyhistor, was Solinus's "world tour" of tales, including those bizarre and miraculous, stretching from the ancient Roman Empire to the distant lands of the Near East and India. It was first published in Venice in 1493 with the title De situ orbis terrarum et memorabilibus. Solinus's ancient geography concerned matters topographical, botanical, and zoological, and extensively referenced Pliny's Natural History and the De situ orbis by Pomponius Mela. In the dedication, Solinus mentions a host of other authorities upon which he relied, including Varro, Homer, Virgil, Aristotle, Cato, Cicero, and Sallust. This Soncino edition was edited by Alexander Gabuardus de Turcella (fl. 15001516), a little-known sixteenth century editor, who made minor changes to the text of Solinus by adding lists of rivers, mountains, lakes, and peoples of the world from the work of Vibius Sequester, a fourth-century geographer.Gabuardus made a further addition by including a list of the provinces of the world, which was "edited for our time." Solinus's De situ orbis terrarum was an exceptionally popular work throughout the Middle Ages and early modern period; it was a practical catalogue of "memorable things" found in the natural world, known especially as an authority on geographical knowledge, although most of the details surrounding its existence remain a mystery. This copy is enhanced with the enthusiastic interaction of a Renaissance reader, who created a robust marginal index to the imaginative and historical content in thebeginning of the book probably weighing the relevancy of the text as definitive guide. This attractive work of Sonciniana remains a paramount classic for the Renaissance printing of a late Roman encyclopedic treatise. The De situ orbis terrarum is not commonly found in the US; OCLC locates institutional copies at the Morgan Library, Yale, American Antiquarian Society, Hebrew Union College-Cincinnati, and Universities of Illinois and Minnesota.
