MASSON (Jean-Papire).

| Descriptio Fluminum Galliae qua Francia est.
|
Parisiis, apud Iacobum Quesnel, 1518 (i.e. 1618). in-8. 5ff. portrait hors-texte. 684pp. (i.e. 686). (1f.blanc). 11ff. (1f.blanc). Plein vélin de l'époque. Edition Originale de cette importante description des cours d'eau français, composée par le célèbre historien français Jean Papire Masson (1544-1611) et publiée après sa mort par son frère Jean. "L'auteur ne se borne pas à décrire sèchement le cours des principales rivières (la Loire, la Seine, le Rhône, la Garonne); il étudie en même temps les contrées que celles-ci traversent et les peuples riverains" (Bourgeois et André). "Masson fut un des savants hommes du XVIe siècle qui se sont occupés avec le plus d'ardeur des origines de notre histoire nationale, et qui ont ouvert la voie si glorieusement suivie par les bénédictins. Ses ouvrages, qui roulent presque tous sur la Gaule, sont très recherchés" (Larousse). Belle marque d'imprimeur sur la page de titre, et beau portrait hors-texte de l'auteur gravé par Gaultier. Quelques rousseurs.

- (4) pp. Asher 26, 27 or 28/12; Kuttel 1518; Tiele 720; STCN (6 copies); cf. Simoni C-175 (apparently another ed.); OCLC WorldCat (4 copies, ed(s). not specified). A small pamphlet listing about three dozen noblemen participating in the peace negotiations between the Netherlands and Spain, leading to the Twelve Years' Truce in 1609. In addition to the Low Countries and Spain, participants represent France, Great Britain, Denmark, and a half dozen German states. This is apparently the first edition to include a list of the proposed articles, here twenty in number and later twenty-eight.The pamphlet appeared in some form with all three editions of the Nederlandtsche Bye-Korf in the period April to August 1608. Knuttel indicates that the edition most often found there (indeed the most common edition overall) is Knuttel 1516, without the list of articles. If the present edition appeared before the first edition Bye-Korf it must have been printed very soon after the date 14 March (1608) mentioned in article 4.A very good copy and nearly untrimmed, with the deckle at the foot and the printer's point holes near the head. There are traces of old folds, and sewing holes in the fold, but no indication that it was ever bound. A nice record of participants in the negotiations, with a preliminary list of the articles of peace.

Verlag Harrassowitz, Wiesbaden - Diem, Werner / Schöller, Marco (insgesamt 3 Bände/Teile) The Living and the Dead in Islam - Studies in Arabic Epitaphs Volume 1: Epitaphs as Texts by Werner Diem,Volume 2: Epitaphs in Context by Marco Schöller,Volume 3: Indices Verlag : Harrassowitz, O ISBN: 3-447-05083-7 Einband : Leinen Seiten/Umfang : XLIV, 1518 Seiten - 24 × 17 cm Erschienen : 1. Auflage 12.2004 Preisinfo : 145,00 Eur[D] These studies deal with Arabic epitaphs within the culture, society and intellectual and religious history of Islam on the basis of the edited epigraphic material and literary sources. They aim at filling a gap in a hitherto neglected field in the wider realm of Arabic and Islamic studies and will contribute to a deeper understanding of the Islamic attitudes towards death, afterlife, burial, mortuary cult, memory and the relations between the worlds of the living and the dead. In Volume I it is the epitaphs which are to the fore. Additionally, various literary sources are cited in order to enlarge the basis for research, to determine the phraseological conventions and to elucidate the religious, mental and social background of funerary epigraphy. In some sections, epitaphs written in Hebrew and Turkish have also been taken into account for the sake of comparison with the Arabic material.Volume II deals with the social and material aspects of Islamic burial sites and funerary monuments, which form the wider context of Arabic funerary epigraphy.Moreover, all kinds of literary sources, including the important genre of Arabic visitation and cemetery guides, have been given ample attention. This volume also comprises a catalogue of epitaphs and epitaph-poems cited in Arabic literary sources.

An- | no.M.d.xviii. Nonas | January.' Secunda Pars: title-page in black only, with decorative border signed 'VG' in upper left corner; a very small piece of paper is neatly overlaid on a small area of the title-page, most probably to obscure the name of a former owner.

Alone alle prime ed ultime (in questo caso assolutamente marginale) cc., qualche trascurabile e sporadica fioritura, peraltro esemplare fresco e marginoso, nel complesso ben conservato.

Typ. 2193 & 8786-8789; Hollstein LXIX, p. xxviii; Palau 187146-187148; Poortman, p. 22; http://catholic-resources.org/Art/Nadal.htm (all noting Antwerp eds. of Nadal, 1593-1595); not in BMC STC Italian; Mortimer (Italian).First edition of Vivaldi's Italian adaptation of Nadal's 1593 Jesuit meditation book built around scenes of Jesus's life taken from the Gospels, with 154 plates printed from the original Antwerp copper plates of the 1593 edition, including its title-page. The production of the plates was a splendid pioneering exercise in perspective illustration, primarily by the Wierix brothers in Antwerp: Jan (ca. 1549-ca. 1620), Antonie (ca. 1552-1624) and Hieronymus (1553-1619), but with some plates drawn or engraved by other artists, including Bernardino Passeri in Rome, Johannes and Adriaen Collaert, Karel de Mallery, Maerten de Vos and others. These images must have given many sixteenth and seveteenth-century Catholics their first ideas of life in Biblical times, and they influenced leading Bible illustrators from their own day to Gustav Doré. The plates are arranged (as in the 1593 edition) according to the chronology of Jesus's life as indicated by the arabic numbering, but they also include the roman numerals that were added for the 1595 edition, where they were arranged in the order of readings in the course of the liturgical year. Each plate gives (at the head) the day in the liturgical calendar when the relevant Bible passage was read, a short title, and references to the relevant passages; and (at the foot) Nadal's brief Latin descriptions keyed with letters to elements in the scene, intended as subjects for meditation or prayer. Originally published as a print series in 1593, it was expanded with letterpress texts in 1594, and Vivaldi made an Italian adaptation of these additional texts, with one page of letterpress text facing each plate (that facing the first plate is printed on the back of the 1599 title-page; the others are blank on the reverse). The book further contains Jacobus Ximenez's 2-page dedication to Pope Clement VIII, a 1-page note to the reader, a 3-page list of the plates, the 1593 Latin "Interdicitur Impressio" by the Pope's secretary for the late Nadal and the surviving son of the Antwerp publisher Martinus Nutius, and a 1-page list of eratta. The frontispiece showing the Assumption of the Virgin Mary is by Mathias Käger and engraved (and originally published, but the "et exc" has here been erased) by Raphael Sadeler II in Antwerp (Wurzbach, Raphael Sadeler II, no. 8). The copper plates may have actually been sent to Rome for the printing of this edition, for the paper stock in at least some of the plates, also used for the final blank, is likely to be Italian (in the general style of Heawood 1349-1351, but with curls at the upper corners of the shield).Nadal (1507-1580), originally from Majorca, joined Ignatius de Loyola (1491-1556) in the new Jesuit Society in 1545. He began writing the present work and selecting illustrations at Loyola's instigation, and (working with the publishers Christoffel Plantin and Martinus Nutius I) commissioned the engraving. None of the four lived to see the 1593 publication, apparently by Nutius's son. Vivaldi (Genoa 1565-1641) joined the Society in 1580.The only owner's mark is a late eighteenth-century(?) RG monogram stamped at the foot of the last print. The binding is richly gold-tooled, with a (built-up) central scene on each board showing the crucifixion, the cross flanked by the Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene with the "INRI" scroll and sun, moon and stars above, and three hills topped by a skull and crossbones below. This scene appears in an oval in a panel design, all elaborately ornamented, with the spine tooled in ten compartments and on the alternating single and double raised bands and the board edges. The whole shows about 700 impressions (not counting about 500 dots) of about 25 tools. The endpapers are watermarked with a Strassbourg bend above reversed "4" and "WR," similar to Piccard XIII, nos. 883 & 884 (Baden 1651 & 1662).In good condition, with occasional foxing and minor stains, mostly marginal but affecting a few plates, and one tear into the text repaired. The binding is also good, with the first and last compartment of the spine restored and the fastenings lacking (there were 2 on the fore-edge and 1 each in the centre of the head and foot). A splendid monument of the engraver's art in service of the Jesuits, beautifully and lavishly bound.

XLI, (1), cartonatura novecentesca imitante le legature antiche in pergamena. Testo bicolonne in caratteri gotici, tre splendidi capilettera abitati e numerosi altri piccoli capilettera nel testo. Impresa tipografica al colophon. Bruniture al frontespizio e all'ultima c., qualche ininfluente gora marginale, Prima edizione, rarissima, del terzo libro stampato nella città di Asti, importante trattato di diritto feudale, impresso dopo altre due importanti opere giuridiche apparse soltanto pochi mesi prima nello stesso 1518 (il primo volume assoluto impresso ad Asti fu l'opera giuridica di Alberto Bruno, qui curatore della revisione testuale e, come ricorda il colophon, patrocinatore dell'edizione). Dopo la presente edizione originale, la sola impressa in Italia, ne furono stampate pochissime altre in piccolo formato a Colonia. L'Ardizzone, giurista veronese, nacque in data incerta, nell'ultimo decennio del secolo XII o all'inizio del XIII, e morì dopo il 1244.

Second Estienne Edition (first: 1512) of St. Jerome’s Latin version of Eusebius’s chronicle (extended to 381), with the continuations of Prosper of Aquitaine (to 448), Matteo Palmieri (to 1449), Mattia Palmieri (to 1481), and Joannes Multivallis (to 1512). Of special interest are the reference to the invention of printing by Gutenberg under the year 1457 and a passage relating to America on folio 172v under the year 1509. This latter is generally agreed to be the earliest printed reference to Canadian aboriginals, describing the arrival in Rouen of seven savages from "that island which is called Terra Nova’ (probably Micmacs or Beothuks brought back from his 1508 voyage to the New world by Thomas Albert, the Dieppe pilot. The event is visually recorded in a work in bas-relief which is still preserved in the church of St. James in Dieppe. The aboriginals are vividly described as having, "hair dark and coarse like a horse’s mane; no beard through their whole life not any hair on their whole body except that of the head and eyebrows their boat is of bark and one man can carry it on his shoulders."

Colophon on G2r: [Venice: In Aedibus Aldi, Et Andreae Soceri, October 1518]. - 8vo. ff. 233, [3]. complete with the 2 blanks, B8 & G3. Aldine woodcut device on title & verso of last leaf. 19th century paneled calf. armorial bookplate of Henry Richard Vassall Fox, Third Baron Holland [1773-1840]. First Aldine Edition of this collection of ancient geographical texts. Mela’s was "the first extant geographical work in Latin and the only Roman treatise of the classical period devoted exclusively to that subject." (DSB) His descriptive survey of the habitable world (Europe, Africa, and Asia) includes remarks on manners and customs, details on spectacular phenomena, and speculation on the causes of tides. "Despite his general inferiority as a geographer, Pomponius knew more than Strabo about the positions of Britain, Ireland, and the coasts of Gaul and north Germany; he was also the first to mention the Orkney Islands. Pomponius exerted a considerable influence on early medieval authors, both on his own account, and because Pliny used and cited his work." (Ibid.) Solinus’s description of the classical world was based on Pliny’s Natural History and Mela’s geography. The Itinerarium compiled by Antoninus provides a brief survey of the whole of the Roman Empire. Vibius Sequester lists the names of the principal rivers, mountains, etc. known to the Romans. Victor’s work on the topography of ancient Rome, which appears here for the first time, is an important source for the identification of Roman ruins. The last text is Dionysius Afer’s treatise on cosmography. Renouard I 198.9. Adams M1053. BM STC Italian p. 432. JCB I p. 71. [Attributes: First Edition]

Aldine anchor device on title & at end. 19th century red morocco, Aldine anchor device in gilt on covers, all edges gilt (rubbed, title lightly toned & with small paper repair in lower margin, ‘x’ in colophon date erased with tiny hole). probably from the Syston Park Library of Sir John Thorold. Second Aldine Edition. The letters of the consul and Governor of Biyhinia, friend of Tacitus and Suetonius, provide an interesting view of the varied interests of a cultivated Roman gentleman. "The etiquette of the imperial circle, scenes from the law-courts and the recitation-room, the reunions of dilettanti and philosophers, the busy life of the capital or of the municipal town, the recreations of the seaside and of the country – all these he brings vividly before our eyes". (Encyc. Britan., 11th Edn.) Topics range from his Tuscan villa, happy memories of Lake Como, love for his wife, Calpurnia, dreams, ghost-stories, the beauties of the Clitumnus and the floating islands of the Vadimonian lake, the eruption of Vesuvius in connection with the last days and death of Pliny the Elder, the deaths of Silius Italicus and Martial, the principles that should guide a Roman governor in Greece, the government of Bithynia, and the relations between the governor and the Emperor. "The Letters are models of graceful thought and refined expression each of them dealing with a single topic and generally ending with an epigrammatic point." (Ibid.)

Vorangestellt ist eine längere Vorrede an den Freund Johannes Crotus Rubianus (1480-1545), worin sich Hutten besonders über Theologen und Juristen auslässt. Der prachtvolle Titelholzschnitt von Hans Weiditz zeigt den bärtigen Nemo in römischer Uniform, dahinter das Schiff des Odysseus und links auf einer Klippe den Zyklopen Polyphem. Zu Nemos' Füssen liegen verstreut verschiedenste Utensilien, u. a. ein Buch, ein umgekippter Tisch mit Schemel, ein Brettspiel und Karten, eine Laute sowie eine Axt. - Ein vorzügliches Exemplar. VD 16, H-6384; Benzing 62; Böcking XV,1; Goedeke II, 229, 10; Röttinger, Weiditz, 7; Dodgson II, 140; Musper, Petrarca Meister, L7; Fairfax-Murray 211. First edition of the second version of one of Hutten's chief works, of which the first version appeared at Erfurt in 1516. Its verses contain puns and proverbs on domestic matters. Added in the present new version are thirty distichs and the preface in which the author attacks both theologians and lawyers. At the end is printed a letter summarizing the more controversial topics of Hutten's political and theological position. Hutten was a supporter of Reuchlin's defence of Hebrew books in the previous decade and their common satirical production had extended to cover more generally anti-Roman and anti-Papist issues. Reissues of this second version appeared in the same year at Basel, Strasbourg, and Leipzig. - A fine copy. - In modern vellum. [Attributes: First Edition]

- (2), 22 ll. Adams, G-522/[2]; Durling 2656; Hoover 347/[2]; Osler 646/[2]; Sinkankas, Gemology 2366/2; Sparrow, Milestones of Science 82/[8]; Ward 906/[2] & 1251; Wellcome 2804/[2]; Wellisch, A-63/[2]. First and only edition of a treatise on stones found in the human body, including the first known detailed account of gallstones, well illustrated with eleven woodcuts showing more than thirty objects. In addition to stones, it includes growths and indigestable objects swallowed, divided into twelve chapers according to the part of the body in which they were found. Johannes Kentmann (1518-1574), as both mineralogist and city physician of Dresden and Torgau, was ideally suited to discuss this subject. Conrad Gessner included Kentmann’s treatise in his compilation, De Omni Rerum Fossilium Genere, but it is separately signed and foliated for separate publication as well.A very good copy with generous margins. The text of slightly more than one page struck through in ink. Fascinating doctor/mineralogist’s view of "stones" found in human bodies.
