36. 97.01.24 Philip Dormer Stanhope, Earl of Chesterfield (16941773) and Edmund Waller (1699-1771). A VINDICATION OF A LATE PAMPHLET INTITLED THE CASE OF THE HANOVER http://www.netrax.net/~rarebook/s970124.htm

Philip Dormer Stanhope, Earl of Chesterfield (1694-1773) and Edmund Waller (1699-1771) A VINDICATION OF A LATE PAMPHLET INTITLED THE CASE OF THE HANOVER TROOPS CONSIDERED: With Some Further Observations upon those Troops; Being a Sequel to the said Pamphlet. Printed for T. Cooper, at the Globe in Pater-noster-row, London: 1743 pp. [4], 56. 8vo. 20 cm. Plain wraps. From 1701 until 1837 Hanover was ruled by the same sovereign as Great Britain. Under George I Hanover joined the alliance against Charles XII of Sweden, and Hanover troops were used as an arm of British foreign policy. His son and successor, King George II, also was pretty much utterly a Hanoverian. Curiously, he was on bad terms with his brother-in-law Frederick William I of Prussia, and his nephew Frederick the Great; and in 1729 war between Prussia and (British) Hanover was only just avoided. Around the time of these pamphlets (1743) George took up arms on behalf of the Empress Maria Theresa. In 1745 the danger in England from the Jacobites led George to sign the Convention of Hanover with Frederick the Great (although the struggle with France raged around his electorate until the Peace of Aix-la-Chapelle in 1748). In England in 1742 Walpole fell, largely by Chesterfield's efforts... but Chesterfield remained in the opposition, distinguishing himself by the courtly bitterness of his attacks on George II. George learned to hate him violently. With Waller, Chesterfield waged an energetic pamphlet war on George and his ministers. By 1744 the coalition or 'Broad Bottom' party, led by Chesterfield and Pitt, came into office.

Stanhopea ** The Genus ** Edited 11 July 2005 The Genus Stanhopea: was established by Sir William Hooker in 1829, through publication of Stanhopea insignis in the Botanical Magazine. The genus is named for the Rt Hon. Philip Henry Stanhope, Earl of Stanhope, President of the Medico-Botanical Society of London 1829-1837. [See additional notes about the Stanhope family at the bottom of this page.] Stanhopeas are found throughout Central and South America and are pollinated by euglossine bees. According to Rudolf Jenny, a well-recognized taxonomist for this genus and author of a soon-to-be-published monograph, the genus Stanhopea is allied to the following genera: Acineta erythroxantha superba ); Acropera (Gongora); Archivea; Braemia Cirrhaea images Coryanthes ...

He filled many high offices, including those of Ambassador to Holland, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, and Sec. of State. He was distinguished for his wit, conversational powers, and grace of manner. His place in literature is fixed by his well-known Letters addressed to his natural son, Philip Dormer Stanhope. Though brilliant, and full of shrewdness and knowledge of the world, they reflect the low tone of morals prevalent in the age when they were written.
