| SFORZA HOURS, THIRD BOOK (DAS STUNDENBUCH DER SFORZA, DRITTES BUCH) Fine Facsimile Illuminated Edition of 16th Century
|
Faksimile Verlag Luzern. Sforza Hours, 16th century - British Library, London, Add. Ms 34294An Outstanding Renaissance Manuscript A Monumental Work of the Renaissance The Sforza Hours rank among the masterpieces of the Renaissance, exemplary in terms of colour and expressiveness. Lavish miniatures and golden ornamental borders reveal both atmosphere and emotions prevalent in Renaissance times. From an art historians point of view, this Book of Hours is a true rarity, as it integrates the major works of two illuminators who worked in different countries and certainly never met each other. A Past Right Out of a Detective Story Thanks to a coat-of-arms and an inscription in the Book of Hours, it was possible to determine the original proprietor of the manuscript: Bona Sforza, wife of Galeazzo Maria Sforza, duke of Milan from 1466 to 1476. A first written proof of the existence of this manuscript was found in a letter written by the Milan illuminator Giovan Pietro Birago to an unknown aristocrat in which he tells him that a mendicant had stolen parts of an unfinished manuscript. These stolen leaves, around a third of the entire manuscript, were never found again. At the beginning of the 16th century, the still incomplete manuscript was inherited by Margaret of Austria who ruled the country on behalf of her minor nephew, the later emperor, Charles V. The remaining pages were not illuminated until around 1520, by no less an artist than the painter Gerard Horenbout. The remainder of the story is unknown, until the year 1871. However, at this time, an anonymous Spanish grandee sold the work through a mediator to the English conservator Sir John Charles Robinson who passed it on to the English collector John Malcolm of Poltalloch. He divided the manuscript which was then bound in one volume and had it rebound in four individual parts. In 1893 Malcolm donated the manuscript to the British Museum. The Italian Portion: Giovan Pietro Birago Birago presumably originates from Milan where he was born around 1450. As early as in the 1470s he started working as an independent painter. In the eighties of the 15th century he painted for leading Venetian families before entering the services of the Sforza in Milan around 1490. Work on the Book of Hours began probably around 1486/90 but the project was abandoned in 1495 shortly before Bona left Milan. In the above mentioned letter Birago quotes the worth of the manuscript at 500 ducats, which is about five times the value of Leonardo da Vinci's Virgin of the Rocks. He obviously considered this work as highly important and fascinating because of its artistic value. It is assumed that Birago died around 1513. The text of the Italian portion was probably written by a single person. The pictures in the margins illustrate either the relevant portion of the book or comment an adjacent line. Birago knew perfectly how to represent the feelings of people through their facial expressions. This expressiveness is further emphasised by the colours he used for his miniatures. The Flemish Portion: Gerard Horenbout The sixteen Flemish miniatures as well as two ornamental borders are the only works of the illuminator Gerard Horenbout of Ghent which may be proven by documents. Horenbout worked as an illuminator in Ghent since 1487. In 1515 he was appointed painter of the court by Margaret of Austria. An invoice issued by the master reveals that he had been working on the completion of a Book of Hours before 1521. Later sources remain silent for a few years, until he reappears in 1528 in the environs of the English king for whom he painted until he died in 1544. Horenbout's illuminations fascinate through their faithfulness to the most minute details, clearly under Italian influence. On the one hand, Horenbout relied on a style of painting widely used in Flanders, on the other hand he certainly tried to model his paintings upon Birago's style. The Fine Art Facsimile Edition The facsimile is published in four volumes, in full accordance with the original format of 13.1 x 9.3 cm, and in a limited edition of 980 numbered copies.

[Ulrich Zell,] [Cologne:] [1466-1467.] - 4to. [a-c8, d6.] 22 folios. Modern limp vellum using old vellum, title in hand on front cover; Eric Sexton's leather booklabel; edges speckled red; minor foxing, a vey fine copy. Housed in morooco backed folding box.] Though it is now separated, this is the Sexton- Berland- Kraus copy.] 27 lines, gothic type 1:96 (leaded to c.104), 4 line initial ms "P" in blue with penwork decoration extending into margin at beginning of Book I, similar 4 line initial "R" in red to Book II; other smaller initials alternately in blue and red, yellow capital strokes. Homily on the 50th Psalm, the great penitential psalm."Saint John Chrysostom (c.347Ð c.407, archbishop of Constantinople, was an important early father of the church. He is known for his eloquence in preaching and public speaking, his denunciation of abuse of authority by both ecclesiastical and political leaders, the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, and his ascetic sensibilities.Known as "the greatest preacher in the early church," John's sermons have been one of his greatest lasting legacies. Chrysostom's extant homiletical works are vast, including many hundreds of exegetical sermons on both the New Testament (especially the works of Saint Paul) and the Old Testament (particularly on Genesis). Among his extant exegetical works are sixty-seven homilies on Genesis, fifty-nine on the Psalms, ninety on the Gospel of Matthew, eighty-eight on the Gospel of John, and fifty-five on the Acts of the Apostles.The sermons were written down by the audience and subsequently circulated, revealing a style that tended to be direct and greatly personal, but was also formed by the rhetorical conventions of his time and place. In general, his homiletical theology displays much characteristic of the Antiochian school (i.e., somewhat more literal in interpreting Biblical events), but he also uses a good deal of the allegorical interpretation more associated with the Alexandrian school." [Wkpd]"Ulrich Zell, Publisher, the first printer of Cologne, born at Hanau-on-the-Main, date unknown; died about 1507. He learned the art of printing before 1462 in the printing establishment of Fust and Schffer, and seems, shortly after the catastrophe of 1462, to have gone to Cologne, whose university gave promise of a market for printed works. Zell was printing at Cologne apparently as early as 1463, although his first dated book is of the year 1466. His work as printer and publisher can be traced up to the year 1502; altogether about 120 of his publications are known. Of these, however, only nine bear his name, but in all probability he printed and published many more. In outline and cut his six kinds of type are strikingly similar to the "Durandus" and "Clements" types of Fust and Schoffer; it would even seem that a number of the matrices of the "Clements" type had been used. Most of the books printed by Zell were text-books in quarto form for the university. Among the fine productions of his printing shop is an undated edition of the Latin Bible in two volumes. At first he called himself clericus (of the lower orders), but as early as 1471 he married and became a citizen and householder of Cologne. In 1473 he bought the important manorial estate of "Lyskirchen", to which he transferred the main part of his business. In the colophons of his books the place of business is called "apud Lyskirchen". The purchase, sometime later, of various houses, lands, and properties yielding revenues, show that Zell had become a prosperous man. It is also a proof of his importance that for a long time he filled the office of Kirchenmeister (church-master) of "S. Maria an Lyskirchen". Of much importance in the history of the discovery of printing is Zell's statement, preserved in the Chronicle of Cologne of 1499, that the year 1450 was the date of the beginning of printing, that the country-squire Johann Gutenberg was the inventor of it, and that the first book printed was the Latin Bible, the Vulgate.

Der Druck ist durch einen handschriftlichen Eintrag des Rubrikator mit "1466" in einem englisches Exemplar zeitlich festgelegt. Der erste Druck Mentelins war die lat.

| Erasmus von Rotterdam. Lob der Narrheit. Vorzugsausgabe
|
- Erasmus von Rotterdam (1466-1536) gilt als die zentrale Gestalt des Humanismus im 16. Jahrhundert. Sein zur Weltliteratur gehörendes Werk Lob der Torheit, das 1509 als eine Art Pendant zum Lob der Weisheit des Thomas Morus entstanden war, will er als Kind launiger Muse beurteilt wissen. Er preist darin die Menschlichkeit und den neuen Geist eines natürlichen Selbstgefühls. Er verwirft die erstarrten Kirchenstrukturen seiner Zeit und kritisiert in ironischer Distanz die Dogmen der Kaufleute, Fürsten, Mönche und Gelehrten. Die aus dem Nachlaß stammenden Zeichnungen des Mailänder Künstlers Gabriele Mucchi sind eine Offenbarung der Freigeistigkeit und Vitalität, ein modernes Sittengemälde und sie gehören in ihrer Geschlossenheit in eine Reihe mit den von Hans Holbein und Daniel Chodowiecki illustrierten Ausgaben. 25 x 16,5 cm, 224 S., viele Zeichnungen in s/w, 300 Exemplare als Halbpergamentbände im Halbpergamentschuber [Attributes: Hard Cover]

- ERSTER VERSUCH DIE SPALTE DES HARTEN GAUMENS ZU SCHLIESSEN!Zeis No.1466: "Heilung eines beträchtlichen Wolfsrachens (S.625) durch die, nach den vorhandenen Umständen modificirte Gräfe'sche Gaumennath. Jedenfalls der früheste Versuch, eine Spalte des harten Gaumens zu verschliessen. Krimer löste die Schleimhaut zu beiden Seiten vier Lienen weit vom harten Gaumen ab, und zwar vom vorderen Winkel der Spalte bis zum weichen Gaumen, kehrte diesen Lappen um, so dass die Gaumenfläche der Nase zugekehrt wurde, und legte vier Nähte an. Die Heilung gelang vollständig, aber der Kranke war nur wenig gebessert.""Die von W. Krimer (prakt. arzt in Aachen) im Jahre 1824 ausgeführte Operation ist, wie ich glaube, der erste Versuch, der überhaup gemacht worden ist, Defecte des HartenGaumens durch organischenm Ersatz zu verschlissen. Krimer operierte ein achtzehnjähriges Mädchen, welches mit "Wolfsrachen" (Spaltung des harten und weichen Gaumens), jedoch ohne gleichzeitge Spaltung der Oberlippe geworden war."

Homily on the 50th Psalm, the great penitential psalm."Saint John Chrysostom (c.347Ð c.407, archbishop of Constantinople, was an important early father of the church. He is known for his eloquence in preaching and public speaking, his denunciation of abuse of authority by both ecclesiastical and political leaders, the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, and his ascetic sensibilities.Known as "the greatest preacher in the early church," John's sermons have been one of his greatest lasting legacies. Chrysostom's extant homiletical works are vast, including many hundreds of exegetical sermons on both the New Testament (especially the works of Saint Paul) and the Old Testament (particularly on Genesis). Among his extant exegetical works are sixty-seven homilies on Genesis, fifty-nine on the Psalms, ninety on the Gospel of Matthew, eighty-eight on the Gospel of John, and fifty-five on the Acts of the Apostles.The sermons were written down by the audience and subsequently circulated, revealing a style that tended to be direct and greatly personal, but was also formed by the rhetorical conventions of his time and place. In general, his homiletical theology displays much characteristic of the Antiochian school (i.e., somewhat more literal in interpreting Biblical events), but he also uses a good deal of the allegorical interpretation more associated with the Alexandrian school." [Wkpd]"Ulrich Zell, Publisher, the first printer of Cologne, born at Hanau-on-the-Main, date unknown; died about 1507. He learned the art of printing before 1462 in the printing establishment of Fust and Schffer, and seems, shortly after the catastrophe of 1462, to have gone to Cologne, whose university gave promise of a market for printed works. Zell was printing at Cologne apparently as early as 1463, although his first dated book is of the year 1466. His work as printer and publisher can be traced up to the year 1502; altogether about 120 of his publications are known. Of these, however, only nine bear his name, but in all probability he printed and published many more. In outline and cut his six kinds of type are strikingly similar to the "Durandus" and "Clements" types of Fust and Schoffer; it would even seem that a number of the matrices of the "Clements" type had been used. Most of the books printed by Zell were text-books in quarto form for the university. Among the fine productions of his printing shop is an undated edition of the Latin Bible in two volumes. At first he called himself clericus (of the lower orders), but as early as 1471 he married and became a citizen and householder of Cologne. In 1473 he bought the important manorial estate of "Lyskirchen", to which he transferred the main part of his business. In the colophons of his books the place of business is called "apud Lyskirchen". The purchase, sometime later, of various houses, lands, and properties yielding revenues, show that Zell had become a prosperous man. It is also a proof of his importance that for a long time he filled the office of Kirchenmeister (church-master) of "S. Maria an Lyskirchen". Of much importance in the history of the discovery of printing is Zell's statement, preserved in the Chronicle of Cologne of 1499, that the year 1450 was the date of the beginning of printing, that the country-squire Johann Gutenberg was the inventor of it, and that the first book printed was the Latin Bible, the Vulgate.

Limitierte Auflage von 480 Exemplaren. Deutscher Kommentarband: Karl-Georg Pfändtner, Alois Haidinger., Wien 1466 (Faksimile-Nachdruck jüngeren Datums). 54 Seiten im Format 28,4 x 21,4cm mit 14 Miniaturen. Lesen und Schreiben, Latein, vor allem auch die Vermittlung des Ideals eines christlichen Lebens - das waren die zentralen Inhalte der mittelalterlichen Erziehung und Bildung. Am Beginn des Unterrichts standen das ABC, die wichtigsten Gebete der Katholischen Kirche sowie Verse und Sprüche berühmter Autoren, die, auswendig gelernt, den Grundstock für eine lateinische Phraseologie bildeten. Dieser Lehrplan galt für bürgerliche Schulen, hatte aber auch für den Privatunterricht, der Kindern aus adeligen Kreisen zuteil wurde, Gültigkeit. Der elementare Lehrstoff wurde üblicherweise auf einfachen Wandtafeln, faltbaren Pergament- oder Papiertafeln oder in nicht illustrierten Gebrauchshandschriften dargeboten. Daneben gab es auch reich mit Miniaturen ausgeschmückte Lehrbücher, die jedoch nur Prinzen oder jungen Königen vorbehalten waren und dementsprechend selten sind. Umso wertvoller ist jenes Abecedarium, das prächtig ausgestattet und zusätzlich noch mit einem berühmten Namen verbunden ist, mit Kaiser Maximilian I. Es ist das erste Lehrbuch, das Maximilian als Siebenjähriger in die Hand bekam.

Strassburg, Johann Mentelin, nicht nach 1466. Type 2a, 4 (lt. GW 2a , 3). Einspaltiges Original-Inkunabelblatt mit zahlreichen rotverzierten Versalbuchstaben. Frisches und festesTextblatt mit zwei nadelförmigen Druckmontagelöchern am äußeren Rand. Kleiner Wasserfleck im unteren Randbereich. Blattgröße: 21,2 x 29 cm. Early incunabula text leaf.. Johann Mentelin aus Schlettstadt, der erste Drucker außerhalb Mainz, wirkte zwei Jahrzehnte von1458 bis 1478 in Strassburg und gelangte zu beträchtlichem Wohlstand. Er legte großen Wert auf fehlerfreie, von gelehrten Korrektoren durchgearbeitete Texte. Auffallenderweise hat er nie Illustrationen noch gedruckte Initialen verwendet. Das Blatt stammt aus der Editio princeps und ist das zweite Werk des Strassburger Prototypographen. Der Druck ist durch einen handschriftlichen Eintrag des Rubrikator mit "1466" in einem englisches Exemplar zeitlich festgelegt. Der erste Druck Mentelins war die lat. Bibel von 1461, somit kann davon ausgegangen werden, dass der Druck vor 1466 erfolgte. Die Auflagenhöhe dieses Werkes betrug etwa 200 Exemplare. Leaf of the second Strassburg impression. The first executed by the famos prototypographer of his town after the Bible of 1461. There exists an English copy with the inscrition "1466" by the rubricator.

Auflage Preisinfo : 3800,00 Eur[D] Aus der Reihe : Codices selecti phototyp. impressi A 109 Sonderbd Im Mittelalter wurde der elementare Unterrichtsstoff üblicherweise mit einfachen Wandtafeln, faltbaren Papiertafeln oder unillustrierten Gebrauchshandschriften vermittelt. Reich mit Miniaturen geschmückte Lehrbücher waren nur wenigen vorbehalten und dementsprechend selten. Umso wertvoller ist jener Codex in Wien, der nicht nur prächtig ausgestattet, sondern zusätzlich noch mit einem berühmten Namen verbunden ist, mit Maximilian I. Aus diesem um 1466 vom kaiserlichen Kanzlisten Wolfgang Spitzweg geschriebenen Schulbuch lernte der spätere Kaiser als siebenjähriger das ABC, das Vaterunser, Ave Maria und andere Gebete sowie Merkverse in lateinischer und deutscher Sprache, kurzum alle grundlegenden Inhalte des damaligen Lehrplanes. Die Handschrift ist das älteste Exemplar einer Gruppe von drei bekannten Lehrbüchern, die eigens für Maximilian angefertigt und alle von ein und demselben Meister illuminiert wurden. Im Gegensatz zum Schreiber ist er anonym geblieben, weshalb er in der Literatur als "Lehrbücher-Meister" bezeichnet wird. Die farbenfrohen, mit aufwendigem Gold ausgeführten Miniaturen, in Initialbuchstaben eingeschriebene Genreszenen und religiöse Darstellungen, zeigen enge Bezüge zum herrschaftlichen Schüler. Zu Textbeginn sehen wir Maximilian im Einzelunterricht mit einem seiner Lehrer, zu den Tischgebeten erscheint der junge Prinz stets bei Tisch 27 folios im Originalformat. Wildleder mit Blindprägung (getreue Kopie des Einbandes der Originalhandschrift) Die kulturhistorische Bedeutung des Lehrbuches für Maximilian I. kann gar nicht hoch genug geschätzt werden. Nicht nur, dass der als "letzter Ritter und erster Landsknecht" in die Geschichte eingegangene, vielseitig begabte Fürst, unter dem die Habsburger zur mächtigsten Dynastie Europas aufstiegen, mit diesem Buch lesen lernte. Die exquisite künstlerische Ausstattung der Pergamenthandschrift war zugleich die erste Begegnung des jungen Maximilian mit der Buchmalerei, die ihn Zeit seines Lebens begeistern sollte und ihn zu einem großen Förderer deses Genres werden ließ.

Homily on the 50th Psalm, the great penitential psalm."Saint John Chrysostom (c.347d c.407, archbishop of Constantinople, was an important early father of the church. He is known for his eloquence in preaching and public speaking, his denunciation of abuse of authority by both ecclesiastical and political leaders, the Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, and his ascetic sensibilities...Known as "the greatest preacher in the early church," John's sermons have been one of his greatest lasting legacies. Chrysostom's extant homiletical works are vast, including many hundreds of exegetical sermons on both the New Testament (especially the works of Saint Paul) and the Old Testament (particularly on Genesis). Among his extant exegetical works are sixty-seven homilies on Genesis, fifty-nine on the Psalms, ninety on the Gospel of Matthew, eighty-eight on the Gospel of John, and fifty-five on the Acts of the Apostles.The sermons were written down by the audience and subsequently circulated, revealing a style that tended to be direct and greatly personal, but was also formed by the rhetorical conventions of his time and place. In general, his homiletical theology displays much characteristic of the Antiochian school (i.e., somewhat more literal in interpreting Biblical events), but he also uses a good deal of the allegorical interpretation more associated with the Alexandrian school." [Wkpd]"Ulrich Zell, Publisher, the first printer of Cologne, born at Hanau-on-the-Main, date unknown; died about 1507. He learned the art of printing before 1462 in the printing establishment of Fust and SchUEffer, and seems, shortly after the catastrophe of 1462, to have gone to Cologne, whose university gave promise of a market for printed works. Zell was printing at Cologne apparently as early as 1463, although his first dated book is of the year 1466. His work as printer and publisher can be traced up to the year 1502; altogether about 120 of his publications are known. Of these, however, only nine bear his name, but in all probability he printed and published many more. In outline and cut his six kinds of type are strikingly similar to the "Durandus" and "Clements" types of Fust and Schoffer; it would even seem that a number of the matrices of the "Clements" type had been used. Most of the books printed by Zell were text-books in quarto form for the university. Among the fine productions of his printing shop is an undated edition of the Latin Bible in two volumes. At first he called himself clericus (of the lower orders), but as early as 1471 he married and became a citizen and householder of Cologne. In 1473 he bought the important manorial estate of "Lyskirchen", to which he transferred the main part of his business. In the colophons of his books the place of business is called "apud Lyskirchen". The purchase, sometime later, of various houses, lands, and properties yielding revenues, show that Zell had become a prosperous man. It is also a proof of his importance that for a long time he filled the office of Kirchenmeister (church-master) of "S. Maria an Lyskirchen". Of much importance in the history of the discovery of printing is Zell's statement, preserved in the Chronicle of Cologne of 1499, that the year 1450 was the date of the beginning of printing, that the country-squire Johann Gutenberg was the inventor of it, and that the first book printed was the Latin Bible, the Vulgate.
