| Palladio's Venice: Architecture and Society in a Renaissance Republic
|
Yale University Press. Celebrated Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) devoted much of his career to the city of Venice. Famous for public buildings he had designed in his native Vicenza and country villas he had built for wealthy patricians there, he arrived in Venice in the mid-1550s confident of establishing a successful new practice. Yet Palladio's Venetian career never matched his lofty expectations. Failing to achieve the position of state architect or to earn the kinds of commissions to which he was accustomed, he found himself working in a category new to his practice: ecclesiastical architecture. It was his stunning churches, however, including San Giorgio Maggiore and Il Redentore, that established Palladio's lasting renown. In this fascinating and beautifully illustrated book, Tracy E. Cooper organizes Palladio's work in Venice according to different types of patrons. She discusses his major monuments as well as less well-known work for charitable foundations, convents, triumphal processions, and the rebuilding of the Ducal Palace. She tells the compelling story of an established architect breaking into a new market and of a Renaissance city in the midst of sweeping change. ISBN10: 0300105827.

A Charenton pres Paris: Vernay [PN 1508], [1803].. Folio. Unbound, as issued. Violin I: 1f. (title, v. blank), 3-7 pp. Violin II: [1] (blank), 2-5 pp. Viola: [1] (blank), 2-5 pp. Bass: 3 pp. Horn I: 2 pp. Horn II: 2 pp. Lithographed throughout, with humorous lithographic illustration of a group of musicians to title of Violin I part. Title slightly soiled and spotted. A very good copy overall.. First French edition. Very rare. Haberkamp I, p. 288. RISM M5929 (one complete copy only). Apparently a reissue of the first edition published by Andre in Offenbach a/M one year earlier, but with a completely redrawn illustration. "A French patent for lithography was secured in Frederic Andre's name on 11 February 1802 as part of the grand plan of his brother, Johann Anton Andre... Very little work from this early period of lithography in France survives other than the music and title-pages of these Charenton and Paris presses... Only six months after securing his French patent, Frederic Andre sold it to Madame Louise-Gabrielle Vernay... The Vernay family and Andre are recorded as living at the same address in Paris... It is by no means clear whether the Vernay press at Charenton and the Andre press in the rue Saint-Sebastien used separate sequences of plate numbers... There can be little doubt that both these presses were closely connected with Johann Andre's publishing enterprise in Offenbach... Some of the works published in France were produced in Offenbach and issued with fresh title-pages. The methods of production used at Charenton and Paris, along with the style of the work and the type of paper used, also suggest a close connection with the Offenbach press." Twyman: Early Lithographed Music, pp. 247-248. A rare example of early French music lithography.

Trient, 30. IV. 1508. 1 S. Qu.-8vo. Mit papiergedecktem Siegel. Bestätigt in vierzehn Zeilen den Erhalt von 95 Gulden durch den kaiserlichen für seine im vergangenen Monat angenommenen Landsknechte sowie von sechs Gulden Vorschuß für sechs eben erst angenommene Knechte "vnd auf ain krancken knecht der in de[r] müsterung wider gut gemacht ist worden" weitere zwei Gulden. - Die Datierung ist eindeutig ("30 tags aprille ano dmi octavo [...] 30 aplis 1508"), jedoch insofern problematisch, da Hohenems der ADB (XIII, 512ff.) zufolge am 10. III. 1508 im Kampf gegen die Venezianer im Cadoretal gefangen genommen wurde und erst am 6. VI. d. J. wieder frei kam. - Oben und rechts etwas knapp beschnitten, sonst von guter Erhaltung.

Red Angel Press. Palladio,
|
| Excerpts from The Four Books on Architecture. Translated by Robert Tavernor & Richard Schofield.
|
Bremen, Maine and New York Red Angel Press 2008. - One of 50 copies, all on Fabriano Artistico paper, signed and numbered by the artist / publisher / printer, Ronald Keller. Page size: 17-1/4 x 10- 1/4 inches; [i-v] 14 numbered pages with colophon printed on verso of page 14 which is a fold-out. This edition is highlighted with a paper cast rendering of the Villa Almerico - Capra which is mounted on the inside back cover of the book. The front cover is split in the center of the book and the pages open both to left and right. As the pages are turned, the leaves are trimmed narrower, gradually revealing the cast paper bas-relief image of the facade of La Rotonda on the inside back cover. The book is bound in tan cloth with the title, "PALLADIO" printed in deeper brown to the left of center. The title page is printed in brown and black. The text is set in Bembo and Caslon for the title. The text is further embellished by two additional architectural renderings by Palladio. Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) wrote FOUR BOOKS ON ARCHITECTURE as well as designing some of the most beautiful buildings in the world. Considered one of his most beautiful buildings, the Villa Almerico-Capra is honored in this book. The text (from FOUR BOOKS ON ARCHITECTURE) is taken from the chapters dealing with the construction basics of classic architecture - sand, stone, timber, metals, etc. - and gives concise analyses of them. Mr. Keller's paper bas relief is strong and vibrant - as elegant as the Veneto countryside. [Attributes: Signed Copy; Hard Cover]

| Architecture de André Palladio De Vicenc
|
- In 4º, doble Portada, v. en bl., XI pp., 173 pp., con XCIII tablas a plena página, con un error de paginación en la p. 135, que salta a la 139, aunque la secuencia es correcta. La Tabla XXIX tiene una pérdida, que apenas afecta el texto explicativo de la anterior sobre la columna en francés, ya que en italiano se halla completa. Encuadernación moderna en pasta española, lomo de cuero con títulos dorados. Buen ejemplar. Obra bilingüe, realizada en italiano y en francés, con las láminas a plena página y los textos explicativos a dos columnas. La obra de Andrea Palladio (1508 - 1580) el gran arquitecto italiano del renacimiento, iluminó la disciplina hasta nuestros días. Sus tratados, entre los cuales destaca "I quattro libri dell Architettura", se convirtieron en un canon para la arquitectura occidental de los siglos venideros. Los ingleses en especial siguieron sus preceptos y reglas compositivas. La sencillez y equilibrio de sus líneas, en forma opuesta al lenguaje barroco, es lo que tanto agradó a los arquitectos británicos. Proyectó y construyó importantes villas señoriales en Vicenza y más tarde, en Venecia, donde también se ocupó de los edificios religiosos de gran volumen. El Papa Paulo III lo llamó a Roma para confiarle los trabajos de la Iglesia de San Pedro, pero el prelado falleció antes que Palladio llegara a dicha ciudad. Lo presenta aquí otro destacado especialista, Francesco Mutonni (1668 - 1747), el gran arquitecto italiano del barroco. Muttoni fue un admirador de la obra de Palladio, en la cual se inspiró para el proyecto y construcción de numerosas villas y otros edificios en las mismas regiones donde aquel actuara. En el Veneto son raras las monumentales estructuras barrocas de las construcciones de esa época; sin embargo Muttoni las estudia por los numerosos elementos decorativos de la tradición palladiana. A tal fin, Muttoni desmenuzó profundamente la obra de Palladio y publicó el importante libro "Archittetura di Andrea Palladio vicentino", con numerosos grabados y observaciones donde analiza las publicaciones de su maestro. Ésta es la obra que aquí se ofrece.

[Milan: J.A. Scinzenzeler], . 1508 - Eight unnumbered leaves and eighty-eight numbered leaves. The two-leaf index, often missing, is supplied here in expert facsimile. Large woodcut map of Africa, southern Europe, and western Asia taking up most of the titlepage (second, corrected, issue with the Red Sea correctly named "Sinus Arabicus"). Small folio. Modern blue morocco by Riviere & Son, spine gilt and with raised bands, expertly rebacked, gilt inner dentelles, a.e.g. First three letters of title in expert pen facsimile, two other letters strengthened in pen. An occasional bit of minor worming, almost entirely confined to the side margins, touching the printed marginalia in a few instances. A very good copy. This copy bears the bookplates of noted voyage collector and scholar Boies Penrose, with his ink notes on the front pastedown. A monument in the history of voyages, this is the second issue of the first Latin-language edition of the first- ever printed collection of voyages. It is one of the most important collections of voyages ever printed, and a landmark in the field of Americana. This Milan 1508 edition is of even more importance for the large woodcut map, printed on most of the titlepage, showing all of Africa and much of southern Europe and western Asia. The earliest known map of Africa in which the entire continent is represented as surrounded by the ocean, this second issue of the map is distinguished by correctly naming the Red Sea as "Sinus Arabicus" (in the first issue it is denoted as "Sinus Persicus"). Montalboddo's work was first published in Italian in Vicenza in 1507, and this Latin edition, translated by the Milanese monk, Archangelo Madrignano, appeared the following year. Montalboddo's title promises accounts of "new unknown countries and a new world recently discovered." Sabin remarks that "unlike most modern works, its contents exceed the promise of its title." Montalboddo's collection is of primary interest for Americanists in its extremely early relation of the first three voyages of Columbus, and of the third voyage of Vespucci, in 1501-2. The importance of the Columbus and Vespucci accounts, however, should not overshadow the other important accounts of exploration in the Americas contained herein. Pedro Alvares Cabral's discovery of Brazil and further explorations in Africa and India in 1500-1 was first published in Montalboddo's collection. Furthermore, Gaspar Corte-Real's voyage in 1500 to the North Atlantic, during which he reached the coast of Greenland, is recounted in a letter by the Venetian ambassador to Portugal, who accompanied the explorer. Also included are accounts of the voyages of Alvise da Cadamosto to Cape Verde and Senegal in 1456, which appears for the first time in this collected work; Vasco da Gama's explorations of Africa and India in 1497-99; and the explorations of de Cintra in 1462, and of Alonso Nino and Pinzon. Letters by Venetian spies in Portugal, written in 1501-2 are printed as well. Henry Harrisse, among the foremost students of Montalboddo's work, calls it "the most important collection of voyages, and, in the absence of the LIBRETTO of Vercellese, now lost, the earliest.[It is] a trustworthy and interesting source of information." According to the Church catalogue, two copies of the LIBRETTO of 1504 are now known, a complete copy at the John Carter Brown Library, and a copy lacking the titlepage at the Marciana Library in Venice. The LIBRETTO, however, only contains accounts of Columbus' voyages, and so it is still accurate to call the Montalboddo the first ever collection of diverse voyages (Harrisse never saw it). Harrisse notes that the two- page index "is said to be rarely found, either at the beginning or the end of the volume." Furthermore, Maggs Bros., in their offering of a Milan, 1508, Montalboddo in 1929 (priced £375), notes that "the index was apparently printed after the publication of the work and inserted into the few available copies, and so is almost invariably missing."

Kat. (1 complete copy); OCLC WorldCat (2 or 3 complete copies). Rare first edition Bossuet’s definitive statements on the subject of his 1688 book, Histoire des Variations des Églises Protestantes, decrying the concepts of religious diversity, individual interpretation of scripture and the authority of personal revelation. Bossuet (1627-1704) had been a very popular preacher in the Catholic Church, tutor to King Louis XIV’s oldest son (the Dauphin), and since 1681 Bishop of Meaux. He supported the 1685 revocation of the Edict of Nantes, which effectively banned Protestantism in France, supported the divine authority of kings, opposed the legitimacy of diverse views within the Church, opposed anything that smacked of mysticism, and took as his supreme goal the return of erring Protestants to the "true" church. Quakers epitomised the dangers Bossuet saw in individual interpretation and a belief in God’s direct communication with individuals, and he reserves his most potent venom for these ‘fanatics,’ whom he viewed as arrogant. Ironically, his emphasis on scripture (though not, of course, its individual interpretation) and his intolerance toward, for example, theatre, paralleled the views of many main stream Protestants.Bossuet’s 1688 book, offering his first detailed treatment of religious diversity, was quickly attacked, most notably in the 1689 Lettres Pastorales by Pierre Jurieu (1637-1713), a French Protestant who had become minister of the Walloon Church at Rotterdam after the 1681 suppression of the Protestant academy at Sedan. Bossuet responded by honing his arguments and presenting them with style and eloquence in the present six Advertissements, together more than half the length of the Histoire itself and, of course, much, much rarer. They were published separately from 1689 to 1691 (the title and device of the sixth part, published after Anisson succeeded the widow Mabre-Cramoisy as director of the Imprimerie Royale in 1691, differ from those in the first five), but paginated for publication as a single volume. Tchemerzine appears to have created a ghost by describing the parts as though separately paginated (he also omitted some of the preliminaries). As far as one can judge from his reproductions, the present title-pages are printed from the same type and with the same woodcut devices, dates and imprints, and the library catalogues that give details of the pagination agree with ours. Although the sixth Avertissement completed Bossuet’s work, he published a supplementary État Present des Controverses., describing itself as the "troisieme [sic] et derniere partie du sixieme Avertissement," in 1691, continuing the pagination of the first six parts to p. 837. It is not included in the present set.With an 1817 owner’s inscription and several later library stamps. In very good condition and with generous margins, with only an occasional minor marginal defect. The binding shows some surface damage (mostly from the chemicals the binder used to mottle the leather) but is still in good condition. A rare and important Catholic attack on religious diversity.

Venetiis, Petri Bergomatis solertia XVII Octobris 1508 - 4to (cm 19.5), pergamena coeva rimontata, con titolo manoscritto al dorso, leggera ingiallitura della carta, ma buon esemplare con belle postille marginali. Titolo in gotico, testo su 2 colonne in 2 corpi di caratt. romano, cc. 56 nn., segnat. A8-G8. Rara edizione (ed. or. 1478) del De secretis mulierum, attribuito ad Alberto Magno ma in realtà di autore incerto, con commento di un suo discepolo, Enrico di Sassonia. Il libro è diviso in quattro parti: la prima tratta della formazione dell’embrione e dell’influsso degli astri sul nascituro; la seconda si occupa del parto; nella terza si analizzano i segni che palesano il concepimento (e, parallelamente, quelli che attestano la verginità, la castità oppure la non illibatezza); la quarta, infine, si sofferma sulla natura dello sperma. Questo testo, singolare compendio di conoscenze mediche e credenze popolari, ebbe nel Medioevo e per tutto il Rinascimento un’amplissima circolazione, anche in virtù della sua connotazione magico-esoterica fondata principalmente sulla descrizione delle proprietà di varie gemme, pietre, piante ed elisir. Nel corso del Cinquecento il libro fu posto all’indice, cosa che ne aumentò ancor più la popolarità. Lo stampatore Pietro Quarengi era originario di Palazzolo Bergamasco, fu attivo a Venezia fino al 1517. Durling NLM n. 97.

Petit, Paris 1508 - Paris, Jean Petit, 1508. Small 4to. CXXVIII numbered, 6 unnumbered ff. Roman type, 25 lines with numerous ornamental, figural, and floral stipple-engraved initials and Jean Petit's handsome lion and unicorn woodcut device on title. Half calf over marbled boards, smooth spine divided by gilt rules in six compartments, titled in second and with star ornament in others. Rare imprint of one of the most important pedagogical treatises of the Renaissance, edited and with a dedicatory poem by Nicolas Du Puy, [fl. 1507-1511] under the pseudonym 'Nicolas Bonaspes'. The volume collates exactly as the Gourmont, 1508 edition, the only other early issue presently available and nicely described by Antiquariaat Forum. First published in Milan in 1491 and then variously reprinted; all editions are of considerable rarity. "A very remarkable pedagogical concept, unparalleled in its time and even in the two following centuries for its universality of treatment and excellence of principles" (cf. Steiff 47). - No edition printed by Petit known by Bibliotheque National, OCLC, or KVK; German and international auction records only list later editions. First and last f. slightly dust-soiled, otherwise a flawless copy of this attractive post-incunable.

Paris, 'apud Gourmontios' (= Robert, Gilles and Jean Gourmont), 1508.. Small 4to (19x13cm.) Full nineteenth century blind tooled calf in a 'Medieval style' with three central vertical rolls on sides. 128, (6) ff.. First edition published in France of an important and influential pedagogical work by Maffeo Vegio (1406-1458). Vegio was an Italian churchman, humanist, poet and educator who studied philosophy at the University of Pavia, later changing to jurisprudence and finally to letters, which always had been one of his favorite subjects. He was passionately devoted to the ancient Latin poets, especially to Virgil, and he became an enthusiastic promotor of the revival of letters in fifteenth century Italy. Through his devotion to Augustine, however, Vegio was later attracted to the Augustinians and joined the order.The present book, usually published under the title De educatione liberorum et eorum claris moribuso, was for a long time ascribed to the famous Italian humanist and Neolatin poet Francesco Filelfi. It is Vegio's most important and well-known treatise on the education of children and their moral foundation, composed in six books. The first three treat of the duties of parents and teachers in education; the last three of the duties of youth to God, to their fellow-men, and themselves, of the several virtues, good manners, the use of time, etc. The work has the distinction of being the most Christian in spirit of all humanistic educational treatises. It approves the study of pagan literature only in conjunction with sacred learning, the study of the Scriptures and the Fathers, makes provision for the education of girls and considers the formation of a sound moral and Christian character to be the supreme end of education.Many editions of the work have appeared, the latest at Tournai in 1854. The editio princeps was printed in 1491 in Milan. A French translation under the title Guidon des parents en l'instruction et direction de leurs enfants was published by Gilles de Gourmont in 1513. Three Gourmont brothers were active at the same time as printers, all three living in Paris: Robert (active 1498-1518), Gilles (1499-1533) and Jean (1506-1522). Sometimes they worked together, as for example with this present edtion, and sometimes individually.This edition of Vegio's educational work was edited by Nicolas Dupuy under the pseudonym 'Nicolas Bonaspes'. After the title follows a dedicatory poem bij 'Bonaspes', dated Paris, 1508, on p. 1v, and after the text of book 1-6 (p. 2r-128r) a Tabula, poems to the parentes iuventutis (parents of the youth), and on this edition, a vita of Francesco Filelfo and his son Mario, and a quotation of Quintilianus on the 6 unnumered leaves. Good and attractive copy of this very rare edition in an interesting imitation binding, with some contemporary manuscript annotations and a mysterious inscription in Greek on the title 'KI ET IFE KIESET'. - (Some faint soiling throughout; upper right hand corner of some leaves stained).

Venedig, Bonetus Locatellus, 1508.. 119 Bl. Folio. Hldr.-Bd. des 18. Jahrhunderts mit goldgepr. Rückentitel und reicher Rückenvergold. (1 Gelenk angeplatzt).. Houzeau-Lancaster 1219, Durling 28, nicht bei Adams und Kenny. Erste und einzige zu Lebzeiten des Verfassers erschienene Gesamtausgabe. Allessandro Achillini (1463-1512) lehrte in Bologna Medizin, Philosophie, Naturphilosophie und theoretische Medizin, später in Padua Philosophie. In der Medizin gilt er als einer der bedeutendsten Anatomen vor Vesal und als Kritiker Galens. Gerühmt werden bis heute seine zahlreichen anatomischen Entdeckungen (vgl.DSB I,48 ), obwohl Thorndike (V, 39 ff., der Archellini ein ganzes Kapitel widmet) zu bedenken gibt, dass sich diese Entdeckungen zumindest an Hand des nur wenige Blatt umfassenden, erst nach Achillinis Tod gedruckten , weder in unsere noch in die späteren Gesamtausgaben aufgenommenen anatomischen Büchleins keineswegs festmachen lassen. Mindestens ebenso wichtig ist Achillini jedoch als Philosoph und Kosmologe. Als einer der bedeutendsten Renaissance-Aristoteliker neben Augustinus Niphus und dem zeitgleich in Padua lehrenden Pomponazzi, mit dem er in einen langen Streit um die Auslegung des Aristoteles geriet (Vgl. Überweg V, 28), stand der zu den Averroeisten zählende Achillini brav in der scholastischen Tradition ,vertrat andererseits aber auch, gestützt auf das Studium der Schriften Ockhams, nominalistische Positionen. Gerade dieser nominalistische Schwenk, der um die Mitte des 16. Jhdts. mit den Schriften des Marius Nizolius seinen Höhepunkt erreichte, war für die Entwicklung der Naturwissenschaften wahrend der Renaissance von großer Bedeutung, da man nun den starren substantiellen Formen des mittelalterlichen Universalienrealismus die Realität der Einzeldinge entgegenstellte. Achillini konnte so seine in Richtung einer moderneren Naturauffassung tendierende Philosophie unmittelbar für die eigene naturwissenschaftliche Arbeit fruchtbar machen. Beinahe die Hälfte des vorliegenden Bandes nimmt die zuerst 1498 (vgl. Goff A-.0037) dann erst wieder hier erschienene kosmologische Schrift "De orbibus" (mit einigen Holzschnittdiagrammen) ein, die offenbar der wachsenden Kritik an dem hochkomplizierten, mathematisch nachvollziehbaren, physikalisch aber eben gar nicht konkret denkbaren Ptolemäischen System Rechnung trägt . Achillini lehrt hier ein homozentrisches System, das sich an das später von Kallipus und Aristoteles erweiterte Kugelschalenmodell des Eudoxus von Knidus (4. Jhdt. v. Chr.) anlehnt, dessen große Eleganz erst im 19. Jhdt. wieder von Ideler und Schiaparelli dargelegt wurde. In Teilen ist "de Orbibus" eine Interpretation von Aristoteles "de Caelo" und dem entsprechenden Kommentar des Averroes. Das Werk mag für sich genommen keinen all zu großen Fortschritt markieren, aber es bedeutet (nach 1500 Jahren !) die entschiedene Abkehr von Ptolemäus und erschien erstaunlicherweise genau zu dem Zeitpunkt in Bologna, als Kopernikus, der sein System ja ebenfalls im Rückgriff auf vorptolemäische Modelle entwickelte, ebendort (1496-99) immatrikuliert war und unter dem selben Dach, bei einem Kollegen des Achillini, astronomische Studien trieb ! Da das Werk lebhaften Anklang bei den Zeitgenossen fand (vgl. Alma mater librorum. Nove seculi di editoria bolognese per l"Universita, Bologna 1988 , Nr.38) ist zu vermuten, dass auch Kopernikus sich eingehend damit beschäftigt hat. Unser Band enthält ferner die philosophischen Schriften des Achillini, insbesondere zur Universalienfrage. (Die Zu "De Elementis" schreibt Thorndike (V,40):"Against Aquinas, Scotus...and many other authorities, he held that elements combining in a compound are not wholly corrupted. They suffer violence, however, in mixing together. Such was his approach to the conception of chemical change." Zu den frühesten gedruckten Schriften über Handlesekunst und Physiognomik, die Achillini der Naturphilosophie zurechnet, gehört "De principiis chyromantie et physionomie" . Das erstmals 1503 gedruckte Werk ging dem berühmten, über Jahrhunderte einflussreichen Werk des Bartholomea della Rocca (auch Cocles) von 1504 voraus, das beim selben Verleger herauskam, und dem Achillinis Text als Einleitung beigegeben wurde. Die medizintheoretischen Schrift "De subjecto medicina" beendet das Werk. Schönes Exemplar dieser seltenen Postinkunabel. Unter dem Kolophon vermerkt ein Vorbesitzer im Jahr 1708 staunend das hohe Alter des Buches., wohl vom selben Vorbesitzer einige Randkommentare und Formeln zu "De orbibus"

Red Angel Press. Palladio,
|
| Excerpts from The Four Books on Architecture. Translated by RobertTavernor & Richard Schofield.
|
Red Angel Press Bremen, Maine and New York 2008 One of 50 copies, all on Fabriano Artistico paper,signed and numbered by the artist / publisher / printer, Ronald Keller. Page size: 17-1/4 x 10- 1/4 inches; [i-v] 14 numbered pages with colophon printed on verso of page 14 which is a fold-out. This edition is highlighted with a paper cast rendering of the Villa Almerico - Capra which is mounted on the inside back cover of the book. The front cover is split in the center of the book and the pages open both to left and right. As the pages are turned, the leaves are trimmed narrower, gradually revealing the cast paper bas-relief image of the facade of La Rotonda on the inside back cover. The book is bound in tan cloth with the title, "PALLADIO" printed in deeper brown to the left of center. The title page is printed in brown and black. The text is set in Bembo and Caslon for the title. The text is further embellished by two additional architectural renderings by Palladio. Andrea Palladio (1508-1580) wrote FOUR BOOKS ON ARCHITECTURE as well as designing some of the most beautiful buildings in the world. Considered one of his most beautiful buildings, the Villa Almerico-Capra is honored in this book. The text (from FOUR BOOKS ON ARCHITECTURE) is taken from the chapters dealing with the construction basics of classic architecture - sand, stone, timber, metals, etc. - and gives concise analyses of them. Mr. Keller's paper bas relief is strong and vibrant - as elegant as the Veneto countryside.
