説明

<p>This study aims to situate Francis Sandford's works in the context of English book history. In particular, I seek to discover the unusualness embodied in these books, with special attention to A Genealogical History of the Kings of England, and Monarchs of Great Britain (1677). Sandford established trusting relationships with his kings, and the books he published during his service as a herald were for and about the royal family. Although this study is mainly concerned with the Genealogical History, the backgrounds and circumstances of the other works need to be discussed as well, given the lack of sufficient studies. In particular, the integration of text and illustration is an area of great interest in Sandford's books. Therefore, this study also examines the print culture of seventeenth-century England, as well as the engravers and etchers of that time.</p>
