Description
[“The British Pallas, or the worthy Queen Anne of Great Britain, who has always taken to heart and promoted the well-being and peace of Christian Europe, especially through her generous eagerness and loyalty to the Holy Roman Empire, the House of Austria and Portugal, to which she has brought remarkable advantages, and thereby acquired undying renown. Besides that, the memorable Campaigns and Victories that the chief allies have gloriously and gladly deployed in this Campaign, against their enemies both by land and by sea, most notably in Germany, Spain, and Portugal. (Printed in) Cologne by Peter Marteau, Year 1704.”] British Pallas, or the worthy Queen Anne of Great Britain, who has always taken to heart and promoted the well-being and peace of Christian Europe, especially through her generous eagerness and loyalty to the Holy Roman Empire, the House of Austria and Portugal, to which she has brought remarkable advantages, and thereby acquired undying renown. Besides that, the memorable Campaigns and Victories that the chief allies have gloriously and gladly deployed in this Campaign, against their enemies both by land and by sea, most notably in Germany, Spain, and Portugal. The purported author, Pierre (Peter) Marteau, was actually a fictional publishing house in Cologne, Germany. However, the publications from Marteau were pressed all over Europe (Netherlands, France, other areas of Germany), not in Cologne. This allowed publishing houses not to be identified as having published satirical and other controversial documents.
