Francis Drake’s circumnavigation was added at late notice as a 12 leave addition between pages 643 and 644. The Bowes leaves, which described Sir Jerome Bowes’s embassy to Moscow were amended at the request of the Muscovy company (or perhaps Francis Walsingham – Queen Elizabeth’s minster). The second state of the Bowes leaves, as found in this copy, run from pages 491-501 and account for the pagination gap (as the first state leaves were paginated 491-505).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; letter-spacing: .45pt; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eHakluyt was a strong proponent of exploration, trade and settlement in America, and was a leading member of the Virginia company in London. In the 1580s, he spent 5 years as an English ambassador in Paris, where he learnt of the importance of trade with America. While there, he collected information on English and European merchants and \"made diligent inquirie of such things as might yield any light unto our Westerne discoveries in America\". Hakluyt returned to London in 1588 and soon after published this his most famous work – “The Principall Navigations”.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; letter-spacing: .45pt; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eHakluyt is also remembered for his contribution to English literature as the travel works he wrote, and those he encouraged to be translated, directly influenced the writings of Shakespeare.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003eAnnotations: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center;\" align=\"center\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 0pt; mso-ligatures: none; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e “George Spurstowe is the owner of this B[ooke] - 1594” is written on the last page of the book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is likely George Spurstowe (1550-c1604), who was born in the small village of Spurstowe, Cheshire, into the landed class.

Inside he annotated the Travels of John Mandeville to Egypt and the Middle East.

This aligns with Mary I’s efforts to re-establish Catholicism in England, particularly within the universities. Being a Catholic tract, Hoffmeister’s \u003ci\u003eLoci Communes\u003c\/i\u003e explored ways of countering protestant ideas, making it especially relevant at the time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThis copy likely belonged to someone within Oxford’s clerical or academic community who maintained Catholic sympathies during Mary’s reign.
