PIERRE SALA'S LITTLE BOOK OF LOVE (LE PETIT LIVRE D'AMOUR - HALBLEDERBAND IN LEINENSCHUBER) Fine Facsimile Illuminated Edition of 16th Century
|
Faksimile Verlag Luzern. New. Hardcover. pPierre Sala's Little Book of Love, 16th century - British Library, London, Stowe MS 955/ppA Tribute to Love /ppLove and Romance in the Renaissance /ppOne of the most intimate Renaissance manuscripts of the world is today part of the collections of the British Library: a little book that the French poet Pierre Sala from Lyon once presented to his future wife Marguerite Bullioud. In an exquisite selection of miniatures accompanied by verse, this little volume contains a message of love. /ppIt is one of those gems that men of the 15th and 16th centuries used to dedicate to the woman of their heart and of which only a few have been preserved. This little book will fascinate the curious reader because of its text, which partly in verse, partly in prose, is steeped in magic and secrecy. The pictures betray Sala's love for his beloved Marguerite. /ppPierre Sala, A Romantic of the Renaissance /ppThe presenter of this little volume is far from unknown in the world of literature. Pierre Sala was born in 1457 in Lyon, son of an old wealthy family of the Lyon bourgeoisie. Around 1480 he started to work in the services of the French royal family and his first employer was Charles VII. /ppSala undertook a number of journeys that led him as far as the Ottoman Empire. Under Louis XII and Francis I he was first valet de chambre and later shield bearer. /ppAt the beginning of the 15th century he spent more and more time in his home town Lyon where he finally settled down in 1514. In 1522 king Francis I paid a personal visit to his manor, an honour of which Sala was particularly proud. He died in 1529. /ppThe Little Book of Love /ppSala presented the book to his Marguerite when they were still courting, i. E. Before they got married. However, we are not able to date this event with accuracy. It must have been in the years between 1500 and 1519, presumably the latest possible date for their marriage. /ppThe work begins with a dedication describing the relationship between the author and the woman of his heart. His chivalrous courting is expressed in a number of different formulations and culminates in the presenting of a little book in which picture and text are combined to convey the presence of the absent lover. /ppBy doing this, Sala successfully attracts the attention of his beloved and gains a place in her heart. The chivalrous rhetoric conveys personal aspects of an absolute and respectful love which even though not fulfilled, achieves happiness, while still hoping for a response. /ppLove and Morality /ppThe core of the work is composed of twelve iconologues thus forming an entity of picture and text. While five of them relate to love, the others refer to moral topics, such as wisdom and insanity, lies, success and favour. /ppWith their slightly hinted irony and underlying resignation, some passages of the work betray a rather pessimistic view of the world and of society. /ppThere is no underlying thread which would link the diverse passages together or at least one iconologue to the other. And it is not clear where Sala could have had access to those works on which his little volume is based. /ppBe that as it may, this work is original in many ways, especially in the manifold relations between picture and text, and thus goes beyond a mere illustration-oriented book or a commentary. /ppThe Illustrations - Masterpieces of Art at the French Court /ppAll miniature pages are laid out in a uniform rectangle frame. While the left page of the open book contains the text, the right shows a miniature. Each rectangle is lined with gold, a troddle at each angle, recalling the border of a cushion cover. The text is set before a gild ground, reinforcing the impression of a sheet of paper. The pictures go back to the Master of the Chronique scandaleuse who worked in Paris from 1493 to 1510. His artfully executed miniatures complete the work, thus making it an interesting and vivid testimony to late medieval culture. /ppThe Fine Art Facsimile Edition /ppThe facsimile volume contains 40 pages in the format of 13 x 10 cm. 12 miniatures complete Sala's story, and there are 17 pages in the format of 10 x 10 cm, including a transcription of the texts by a French hand of the 18th century. /ppThe volume is gilt-edged on three sides and bound in brown velvet. The de luxe edition includes an exclusive gold-tooled leather slip case and is limited to 290 numbered copies. The de luxe edition is sold out. /ppThe standard edition, available in a decorative book case, is limited to 690 numbered copies. /ppThe Commentary Volume /ppThe trilingual commentary (German/French/English) includes comprehensive contributions which examine the manuscript as well as its historic and art historic background. It provides access to the work and enables us, even centuries later, to understand Pierre Sala's little book of love in all its aspects. /ppThe following experts have examined the manuscript in full detail: Janet Backhouse, Curator of Illuminated Manuscripts in the British Library, and Dr. Yves Giraud, professor at the University of Fribourg. /p .

Sanazarro, M. Jacopo
Arcadia Di M. Jacobo Sanazzaro Con La Di Lui Vita Scritta Dal Consigliere Di Luigi Portirelli
|
Milano. dalla Societa Tipografica de Classici Italiani. 1806. Bound in full leather, 231 pages. Marbled endpapers. Small personal library number on base of spine on paper paste-down. Engraved frontispiece. Text in Italian. Jacopo Sannazaro (1457/8-1530) was a poet whose work both in Latin and Italian was extremely fashionable in its own time. The court poet of King Ferdinand I of Naples, Sannazaro was a member and then leader of Pontano's humanist academy from the 1480s on. Arcadia, the best-known of Sannazaro's Italian works, tells the story, in prose and verse, of the frustrated love of one Sincero for a certain Phyllis. The first nondramatic Renaissance pastoral, its descendants include Jorge de Montemayor's Diana and Sir Philip Sidney's two versions of Arcadia. Though alien to modern tastes, it appeared in a new edition virtually every other year throughout the sixteenth century. Very slight foxing here and there, overall quite good condition. Please feel free to e-mail with questions or to request a photo. This title comes from a large collection of similar 18th & 19th century Italian texts-more than 200 volumes in all-please drop me a note if you'd like to see the complete list.

A highly detailed map of the Republic of Texas, often called the German Arrowsmith, from which it derives its cartography. Texas is shown in its maximum Republic configuration, with 30 counties identified in outline color. This map is certainly one of, if not the most detailed maps dedicated to the Republic of Texas to have appeared in an American atlas. It is especially strong in identifying early roads, rivers, towns and forts often not shown on other contemporary maps of Texas. Inset of Galveston Bay. The panhandle is divided into 12 sections. A scarce and desireable map. Very minor foxing and toning, else a nice example. Day p. 37; Texas State Archives #1457. Not in Streeter.

Argentorati [Strasbourg]: Excudebat Josias Riheliu First edition. 16mo. 13.8cm x 8cm x 3cm. [24pp.]/pp.352 . A very good contemporary full calf binding. Professionally rebacked. Spine with 4 raised bands and red leather title label. Title in red & black with a cut of Moses kneeling before God. Outer edge carefully repaired (using archival standard materials, and without loss of text). Light staining to a few pages, but overall pages are clean with good margins. Mostly Latin text except for Greek text from pp.303 - 352. Printers details from colophon at end of text on p.352 . A well preserved book similar to Adams 1457 ( dated 1573). ** George Buchanan (1506-1582), came from a family of five sons and three daughters brought up by their widowed mother Agnes Heriot. While in Paris Buchanan wrote a satire against Cardinal Beaton, "Franciscantis" (published 1567) which caused him to be denounced as a heretic. He escaped to England and then to Bordeaux, where he taught until 1547. He then went to teach at the University of Coimbra in Portugal, was condemned by the Inquisition, and while in prison translated the Psalms into Latin. He was released in 1553, and was in France and Italy until 1561, when he returned to Scotland and became tutor to Mary, Queen of Scots. He joined the newly-formed General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, and in 1566 he was appointed Principal of St Leonard's College in St Andrews, but the murder of Lord Darnley in the following year brought his friendship with Mary to an end. He became an active opponent of the Queen, and produced pamphlets against her. In 1567 he became Moderator of the General Assembly, and he was made tutor to the young James VI. His accusations against Mary were published as "De Maria Scotorum Regina" (1571), translated as "Ane Detectioun of the Duings of Mary Quene". Buchanan remained active in politics and the church until his death ten years later. He is buried in Greyfriars' Churchyard in Edinburgh, and is remembered as one of the greatest Latinists of his age.

Pierre Salas "Le Petit Livre d'Amour".
|
Luzern, Faksimile Verlag.. Halbleder mit dekorativem Leinenschuber. 40 Seiten im Format von 13 x 10 cm. 12 Miniaturen ergänzen Salas Gedichte, daran schließen sich 17 Seiten im Format von 12 x 10 cm. Original: 16. Jahrhundert - British Library, London, Stowe MS 955. Bildbeschreibung: Der aufgeschlagene Band zeigt die Miniatur auf fol. 7r: Drei Hofdamen und ein Edelmann beim Blindekuhspiel in einem Rosengarten. Eine Hommage an die Liebe: Ein Liebesbekenntnis der Renaissance: In den Sammlungen der British Library befindet sich eines der persönlichsten und intimsten Renaissance-Manuskripte überhaupt. Es war dies ein Geschenk des Lyoneser Dichters Pierre Sala an Marguerite Bullioud, die später seine Frau werden sollte. Dieses Bändchen ist eine Botschaft der Liebe eine feinsinnige Auswahl von Miniaturen wird von Versen umrankt. Es ist eines jener Schmuckstücke, welche die Männer im 15. und 16. Jahrhundert bisweilen der Dame ihres Herzens widmeten und von denen nicht allzuviele erhalten geblieben sind. Der Inhalt des Büchleins entzückt den Betrachter ebenso wie den wißbegierigen Leser, denn die Texte, teils in Versen, teils in Prosa abgefaßt, sind voller Zauber und Geheimnisse. Die Bilder künden von der Liebe Salas zur Auserwählten. Pierre Sala ein "Romantiker" der Renaissance: Auf literarischem Gebiet ist der Geber des kleinen Bandes nicht ganz unbekannt. Pierre Sala wurde vor 1457 als Sohn eines Händlers in Lyon geboren, er gehörte einer alten und wohlhabenden Familie des Lyoneser Bürgertums an. Um 1480 bereits trat er in die Dienste des französischen Königshauses, wo er zunächst dem späteren Karl VII. diente. Er unternahm viele Reisen, die ihn sogar ins Osmanische Reich führten. Unter Ludwig XII. und Franz I. war er Kammerdiener und Schildknappe. Anfang des 15. Jahrhunderts hielt er sich immer häufiger in seiner Heimatstadt Lyon auf, wo er sich 1514 niederließ. 1522 wurde er auf seinem Landsitz sogar von König Franz I. besucht, was ihn mit besonderem Stolz erfüllte. 1529 schließlich starb Pierre Sala. Das Kleine Buch der Liebe: Während Sala noch um Marguerite warb, also vor der Eheschließung, schenkte er ihr das Büchlein. Der genaue Zeitpunkt läßt sich allerdings kaum mehr bestimmen. Vermutlich liegt er aber zwischen 1500 und 1519, denn spätestens in diesem letzteren Jahr hat die Heirat stattgefunden. Das Werk beginnt mit einer Widmung, in der die Beziehung zwischen dem Autor und der Auserwählten beschrieben wird. Das höfische Werben wird durch alle möglichen Formulierungen zum Ausdruck gebracht und gesteigert bis zum Höhepunkt: der Überreichung eines kleinen Buches, in dem Malerei und Schrift miteinander verbunden werden, um dem Abwesenden Präsenz zu verleihen. Auf diesem Weg gelingt es Sala, den Blick seiner Angebeteten auf sich zu lenken und einen Platz in ihrem Herzen zu gewinnen. Die galante Rhetorik vermittelt etwas ganz Persönliches in einer absoluten und respektvollen Liebe, die selbst als unerfüllte zu beglücken vermag und dabei stets auf Erwiderung hofft. Liebe und Moral: Der Hauptteil des Werkes setzt sich aus zwölf Ikonologen zusammen, die eine Einheit aus Bild und Text bilden. Fünf davon weisen einen Bezug zur Liebesthematik auf; die anderen beschäftigen sich mit moralischen Fragen, etwa Weisheit und Torheit, Lüge, Erfolg und Gunst. Mit seiner leicht satirischen Färbung und verhaltenen Resignation zeugt das Werk in manchen Passagen von einer nicht sehr optimistischen Einschätzung der Welt oder der Gesellschaft. Es gibt keinen bestimmten Leitgedanken, der sich durch alle Passagen zieht oder zumindest von einem Ikonolog zum nächsten führt. Fraglich bleibt zudem, wie Sala die Werke kennenlernte, die als Quellen für sein Bändchen gedient haben. Auf jeden Fall legt das Werk eine Originalität an den Tag, die auf den vielfältigen Bezügen zwischen Bild und Text beruht und sich nicht nur auf Illustration oder Kommentar beschränkt. Die Bilder Glanzstücke französischer Hofkunst: Die Bildseiten wurden alle mit einem einheitlichen rechteckigen Rahmen versehen. Die linke Seite des geöffneten Buchs enthält den Text und die rechte jeweils eine Miniatur. Jedes Rechteck ist goldumsäumt, mit einer Quaste an jeder Ecke, ähnlich der Einfassung eines Kissenbezugs. Der Text steht auf einem goldenen Grund, der so gemalt ist, daß der Eindruck eines Blattes Papier entsteht. Der Illustrator der Bilder ist der Meister der Chronique scandaleuse, der zwischen 1493 und 1510 in Paris gewirkt hat. Die liebevoll gemalten Miniaturen ergänzen das Werk zu einem aufschlußreichen, lebendigen Zeitzeugen des ausgehenden Mittelalters. Die Faksimile-Edition: Der Faksimileband umfaßt insgesamt 40 Seiten im Format von 13 x 10 cm. 12 Miniaturen ergänzen Salas Gedichte, daran schließen sich 17 Seiten im Format von 12 x 10 cm mit der Transkription der Texte von einer französischen Hand des 18. Jahrhunderts an. Der Band ist in Halbleder gebunden. Die Normalausgabe wird in einem dekorativen Leinenschuber geliefert und ist auf 690 numerierte Exemplare limitiert. Der Kommentarband: Der Kommentarband in drei Sprachen (deutsch/französisch/englisch) enthält ausführliche Beiträge zur Handschrift und ihrem historischen und kunsthistorischen Umfeld. Er ist der Schlüssel zum Werk, der es auch noch nach Jahrhunderten ermöglicht, das Büchlein des Pierre Sala zu erschließen. Folgende Experten haben das Bändchen genauestens untersucht: Janet Backhouse, Curator of Illuminated Manuscripts der British Library, und Prof. Dr. Yves Giraud, Professor an der Universität Freiburg i.Ü.. 3-85672-054-5Tadellos.
