Emblems and Epigrams, A.D. 1600 is a book written by Francis Thynne. It is a collection of emblems and epigrams that were popular during the 17th century. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing 100 emblems and the second part containing 100 epigrams. Each emblem is accompanied by a short poem and a picture that represents a moral lesson or a symbolic meaning. The epigrams, on the other hand, are short witty sayings that are meant to provoke thought or laughter. The book is a reflection of the literary and cultural trends of the time, and provides insight into the values and beliefs of the people during the Elizabethan era. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of literature, art, and history who are interested in understanding the cultural and intellectual milieu of the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
