Caxton leaf. Higden, Ranulphus.
|
|
| Polychronicon.
|
[Westminster]: William Caxton, [after July 2 1482]. 2 leaves, being (1) leaf of text CCLV and (2) the colophon leaf CCCCxxxviii. Both leaves are rubricated. The first leaf has old manuscript notes in the margins. In good condition. A great rarity. Though Caxton leaves are not uncommon (there have been three Caxton leaf books published, and occasionally stray single leaves turn up), it is of the utmost rarity to see a Caxton colophon. This colophon is 14 lines and begins: "And here I make an ende of this lytel Werke as nigh as I can fynde after the forme of the werk to fore made by Ranulph monk of Chestre / And where as ther is fawlte/ I beseche them that shal rede it to correcte it..." and ends: "prayenge of all them that shall see this symple werke to pardone me of my symple / and rude wrytynge/ Ended the second day of Juyll the xxcvii yere of the regne of kynge Edward the fourth & of the incarnation of oure lord a thousand four honderd foure score and tweyne / Fynysshed per Caxton". Goff H-267. DeRicci 49. Pforzheimer 489 (Goff states 490 in error?). Oates 4080.

It is divided into two parts of fifty chapters each. The first part covers ancient times (to the great discoveries of the Renaissance), emphasizing the many naval battles, but also presenting the development of navigation and geography. The second part covers recent voyages of discovery and topographical description, drawing on numerous naval and maritime sources, including travel journals by European explorers. It includes numerous details of the voyages of Gerard de Veer in the Arctic, Thomas Cavendish, Sir Walter Raleigh, Le Moine in Florida, Thomas Hariot, and the exploration of the southern seas and islands by Magellan, Le Maire, Bernard Jantz, Sebalt de Wert and others. Part 1 includes Ptolemaic maps of the ancient world, while part 2 includes maps of North America, South America, the Strait of Magellan, Asia, Africa and Europe, based on those of Johann Theodor de Bry and others. The other engraved illustrations depict antique coins and medals, and ancient and modern vessels. The book is also a valuable source for naval architecture. The folding plate (31 x 44.5 cm) depicts an ancient Roman naumachia (staged sea battle) with about two-dozen ships in a flooded amphitheatre. Pages 592 to 608 describe North and South America, and pages 609 to 612 the islands around South America, New Guinea, Solomon Islands and "Terræ Australis."Morisot (1592-1661), one of the great intellectuals of his day, is known from several erudite publications, the present being the most important. He corresponded with many leading European academics, using this network to collect materials for his books, adding much to their diverse and encyclopaedic qualities. In this way his Orbis Maritimi, the first major work on naval history, reflects his intellectual contacts. A very good copy, with generous margins, with only minor browning and a small tear affecting a few words of text in one leaf. One map is printed upside down. The binding is rubbed and the spine damaged. An extensive illustrated encyclopaedia of maritime and especially naval history.

Folio (305 x 213 mm.), early 19th cent. calf-backed marbled boards (second leaf carefully re-margined at head with no loss of woodcut image), spine gilt. Venice: E. Ratdolt, 25 May 1482. First edition and a magnificent large and fresh copy of this important book from the library of Harrison D. Horblit (sale Sotheby's, 1974, Part II, no. 341). "An epoch-making book from many points of view. It was the first attempt -- and a highly successful one -- to produce a long mathematical book illustrated by diagrams. In his dedicatory epistle to the Doge Ratdolt says that he had often wondered why the great output of the Venetian printing presses included so few and so insignificant mathematical works. He had discovered that this was due to the difficulty of printing the diagrams without which such books were almost unintelligible, and he had set himself to overcome the difficulty. He certainly did overcome it; and he did more. He not only produced a very beautiful book, but he set a standard for the production of mathematical books which lasted for a generation or longer."Thomas-Stanford, Early Editions of Euclid's Elements, p. 3. Provenance: Early Italian arms drawn in the roundel of the woodcut border of second leaf, with the abbreviated signature Bern. Bal., 1587.

Mit einer dreiteiligen Titelbordüre, 15 größeren und über 500 kleineren Holzschnitt-Initialen auf schwarzem Grund sowie über 500 Diagrammen im breiten weißen Rand.

Stilwell 163. – Erste Ausgabe des ersten gedruckten mathematischen Lehrbuches, von größter Wichtigkeit für die Wissenschaftsgeschichte; zudem das erste Buch mit gedruckten mathematischen Diagrammen und Illustrationen im breiten weißen Rand. Nach dem „Dictionary of Scientific Biography“ hat diese erste Ausgabe von Euklids Geometria nach der Bibel den größten Einfluß auf die Entwicklung der Menschheit gehabt. Der Text geht auf die aus dem 12. Jh. stammende Übersetzung von Adelard von Bath aus dem Arabischen zurück. – In seiner breiten Widmung an den Dogen Giovanni Mocenigo schreibt Ratdolt stolz, daß dies das erste gedruckte mathematische Werk von Bedeutung sei, und er weist auf die Qualität der Diagramme hin, die mit Typenmaterial gedruckt worden sind (üblicherweise werden sie als Holzschnitte beschrieben, es sind jedoch Metalldrucke). – Das erste Blatt aus einem anderen Exemplar ergänzt und etwas kurzrandig und im Falz auf einen Papierstreifen geklebt. Ohne das letzte (weiße) Blatt. Wurmlöcher in den nächsten Blättern (mit etwas Buchstabenverlust); von Bl. o8 die obere Ecke alt ausgerissen, die beiden Diagramme (Recto- und Versoseite) sehr sorgfältig von Hand als „Faksimile“ alt ergänzt. Einige Blätter feuchtigkeitsrandig, einige Blätter stärker gebräunt. Hin und wieder Braunflecken, speziell in den ersten fünf Blättern.

Unrecorded variant issue of the first printed treatise on the Art of Memory, illustrated with the first 'visual alphabet' by the mysterious Jacobus Publicius, together with Publicius's treatises on rhetoric and composing letters. It has been suggested that Johannes Lucillius Santritter edited this edition for Ratdolt. In our copy is the woodcut of a chess board on the recto of the last leaf, while in all other copies it is on the verso of f. d7! 'By the way': This is also said to be the first illustration of a chess board! Little is known of the author who says he is Florentine but may come from Spain. He lectured at Louvain, Basel, Leipzig, and in 1466 in Erfurt, where he after Pater Luder the second early-humanistic 'vagant' and teacher of Johann von Dalberg was. He is generally considered as one of the first itinerant humanists in Europe. In Erfurt he taught Greek for the first time and favoured Cicero as the best example for writing in Latin elegantly. His lectures were based on his own writings devoted to rhetoric and to the art of composing letters which were first published in Venice in 1482 (our edition!).(1) The book starts with the Oratoriae artis epitomata: A1 blank (lacking in our copy), A2r: Ars oratoria: author's prefatory letter to Cyrillus Caesar, A2v-E6v: text (De Civilium questionum: sive causarum generibus.De benevolentie captatione (A5r). De narratione inventionis parte secunda (A5v). Narratio iudicalis (A5v).De iurisiurandi veritate (A8r).De rumore et fama (A8v). De argumentatione (B2v). De ordine (B7v). De numero (E2v). De mode punctuandi (E3r). De dignitate elocutionis parte tercia ultima (E3v).(2) The second work is the treatise on composing letters, the Ars epistolandi: 'Ars Tulliano more epistolandi Iacobi Publicii ad Illustrissimum Principem Tarantinum Hispanie Ducem foeliciter (= Frederick I of Aragon; a1r), a1r-b8v: text (De officio et genere epistolarum (a1r) De speciebus generum (a1v). Diversi mode in diversis speciebus scribendum (a4r). De laude propria et aliena (a6r). Panagericium Iacobi Publicii Ad illustrissimum Principem Tarantinum (= Frederick of Aragon) incipit foeliciter (a8v). and other examples: Ad Rhomanum prino Pontificem (b3r). Ad Caesarem (b3v). Ad studiosos viros (b4v). Ad medicum (b5r). Ad scholasticum (b6r). Ad foeminas (b6v).(3) The most important work is the third treatise, the Ars memoriae: 'Iacobi Publicii Florentini ars memorie feliciter incipit et primo prefatio' (c1r), Divisio memorie (c1v), De ordine locorum (c2r). Locorum qualitas (c3r), Inventio locorum (c3v). Numerus locorum (c3v). Imaginem abolitio (c4v). Exercitatio locorum (c4v). Cognitio mentis (c6v).

It is divided into two parts of fifty chapters each. The first part covers ancient times (to the great discoveries of the Renaissance), emphasizing the many naval battles, but also presenting the development of navigation and geography. The second part covers recent voyages of discovery and topographical description, drawing on numerous naval and maritime sources, including travel journals by European explorers. It includes numerous details of the voyages of Gerard de Veer in the Arctic, Thomas Cavendish, Sir Walter Raleigh, Le Moine in Florida, Thomas Hariot, and the exploration of the southern seas and islands by Magellan, Le Maire, Bernard Jantz, Sebalt de Wert and others. Part 1 includes Ptolemaic maps of the ancient world, while part 2 includes maps of North America, South America, the Strait of Magellan, Asia, Africa and Europe, based on those of Johann Theodor de Bry and others. The other engraved illustrations depict antique coins and medals, and ancient and modern vessels. The book is also a valuable source for naval architecture. The folding plate (31 x 44.5 cm) depicts an ancient Roman naumachia (staged sea battle) with about two-dozen ships in a flooded amphitheatre. Pages 592 to 608 describe North and South America, and pages 609 to 612 the islands around South America, New Guinea, Solomon Islands and "Terræ Australis."Morisot (1592-1661), one of the great intellectuals of his day, is known from several erudite publications, the present being the most important. He corresponded with many leading European academics, using this network to collect materials for his books, adding much to their diverse and encyclopaedic qualities. In this way his Orbis Maritimi, the first major work on naval history, reflects his intellectual contacts. A very good copy, with generous margins, with only minor browning and a small tear affecting a few words of text in one leaf. One map is printed upside down. The binding is rubbed and the spine damaged. An extensive illustrated encyclopaedia of maritime and especially naval history.

(Treviso, Dionysius Bononiensis & Peregrinus Bononiensis, 1482 [on colophon: Impressum taruisii per magistrum Dionysium Bononiensem ac Peregrinum eius socium. Anno D.M.CCC. LXXXII. DIE XXII. mensis octobris]). Small folio. Recently bound in a very nice hvellum, made of old parchment, w. gilt red leather title-label to back and six raised bands. All edges red. Internally nice, w. some occasional soiling and signs of wear. Some small wormholes to last leaves, mostly marginal. Annotated throughout in 16th cent. hand, w. large and small illustr. initials in ink as well as marginal illustrations in ink, all in the same 16th cent. hand, which is that of Augustino Pistoia, who, on blank verso of final leaf, has drawn a portrait of himself and written the date of his finishing reading the book as well as the master under whom he has read it ("A di 20 di Otbr. [?] 1583 io Augostino/ Pistoia ho letto questo libro di Quin-/ tiliano sotto la disciplina del/ mag.io Pompeo Gilante mio maestro/ 1583 1584." (Italian - translates as thus: "On the 20th of October [?] 1583 I Augostino/ Pistoia have read this book by Quin-/ tiliano under the teaching of/ mag. Pompeo Gilante my master/ 1583 1584."). On the colophon-leaf he has drawn a more elaborated version of his self-portrait, in which he is holding a stick w. his own head on top. In the forehead of the drawing he has written his name, "Augustino Pistoia" very neatly. Some of the marginal notes have been cut. (144 ff. = a1-(8) - r1-(8) + (s1-3), by Augustino Pistoia numbered in ink from the beginning till about the middle as LIV - CXIV, the rest of the leaves w. remains of ink-numberings in Arabic numbers to upper right corners). ! The very rare Tarvisio-edition of Quintilian's rhetorical main work, -one of the greatest rhetorical textbooks of the Renaissance, printed on October 22nd 1482. brQuintilian's "Declamationes" is believed also to have been printed the same year in Tarvisio by Bononiensis; it takes up 53 leaves, and has probably been bound with this copy of the "Oratoriarum Institutionum" at some point, as the first leaf of this is numbered as folio 54 in 16th century hand. The works constitute two different ones, and the 1482 Tarvisio-printings of them are considered two separate printings. The "Declamationes" appeared without date. "Les declamations finissent au recto du 53e f. par le mot FINIS, et comme la subscription et le registre sont places au verso du 190e et dernier f., lorsque cette premiere partie (Declamationes) est separee de la seconde, elle parait etre sans date." (Brunet IV:1024). According to Graesse it is generally believed that the Declamationes is from the same press as the Oratoriarum, but this is not evident from the colophon. "On y ajoute ordinairement l'edit. Des "Declam." Sortie des memes presses, mais non annoncee dans le registre des cah." (Graesse V:528). The two works are definitely not parts of the same print (note also that the Oratoriarum is foliated from a1). The Declamationes is less rare than the Oratoriarum, though both are scarce. brThis copy has belonged to the Italian scholar of the 16th century, Augustino Pistoia (Agostino da Pistoia), who was a master of a certain name in 16th century Italian scholarship. He was well known in his day, and apparently appreciated to such an extent as to deserve verses to be written about him by other fellow scholars. These verses are still extant, and are copied in a Florentine manuscript of the late 16th century. The manuscript is described by Kristeller: "Acquisti e Doni 35. cart. XVI in 162 fols. Thomas Baldinoctus, carmina. Include verses to Hier Zauretta [...] on Augustinus Pistoriensis [...]." (Kristeller, Iter italicum", vol. I). Augustine from Pistoia has evidently read this main work of Renaissance humanism very well, as he has annotated it throughout, and written the date of his completion of the reading of the work (1583/ 1584). He has drawn and illustrated numerous initials himself, as he has also drawn marginal illustrations in the book. The portraits he has drawn of himself on the final leaves are quite large (about half-page), and are meant to be a sort of elaborate owner's signature, which almost precede a proper bookplate. In his hand he holds a stick with a drawing of his own head on top of it, which is probably meant to indicate that what goes on in the head, is carried out by the hand. -There is a direct connection between the hand and the head, -a very actual notion in this case, in which most of Augustinus' thoughts when reading the work have been passed on to the margins of the book through his hand. Here we thus have a rare and excellent example of how 16th century Italian scholarship was carried out, and what was thought to be most important when reading a classical text. br"If we understand by the Renaissance the period that runs roughly from 1350 to 1600, we find that rhetoric during this era occupied a broader and more important place than during the Middle Ages. In the Renaissance, rhetoric expanded and developed greatly, and came to pervade all areas of civilization, as it had not been the case during the preceding Centuries (Kristeller. Renaissance Thought and its Sources, p. 242).brQuintilian (ca. 35-95 A.D.) is one of the greatest Roman rhetoricians. He began writing his main work, the "Oratoriarum institutionum" in about 88 A.D., and his complete text was only recorded during the early 15th century, -the same century that the text was printed. Quintilianus was barely known during the Middle Ages, and only the Renaissance, with its humanists and interest in manuscripts containing classical texts as well as interest in other classical writers than primarily Aristotle, discovered the text of the great rhetorician and accepted him as a master, who thus became immensely influential in this period. The invention of printing was obviously of seminal importance to the spreading of classical texts, and the rhetorical discipline as well as the knowledge of authors such as Quintilianus greatly benefited from this new way of making texts more generally known, which dominated the last half of the 15th century. The incunabula-editions of the works of writers such as Quintilianus are very important to the textual history of these writings, which had only just begun to attract attention during the Renaissance. brThe Renaissance humanists of course also began producing rhetorical texts of their own, but we may still assume that the instruction was based on ancient treatises and on the use of classical models; -it still remains to examine to what extent exactly the Renaissance humanists repeated ancient theories and models, and how much was their own making. brRhetoric occupied a central role in the Renaissance, and from the 15th century onwards there is practically not a discipline or part of society that was not under influence from it.br"The ideal of the broadly educated, literary and philosophical orator as Cicero tried to promote it in his mature rhetorical writings found an echo in later Roman rhetorical writers, and especially in Quintilian and Tacitus." (Kristeller, Renaissance Thought and its Sources, p. 223). Rhetoric was to the ancient Roman world what philosophy was to the ancient Greek world. In the Roman Empire there was a dense network of schools of rhetoric, and they served as the only form of higher education available beyond the level of grammar school. They offered rhetorical and literary education that was found appropriate learning for lawyers, administrators and public officials to be. Rhetoric came to play a great role at the universities in the Renaissance, and one of the main textbooks was that of Quintilianus.brGraesse V:528, Brunet IV:1024, Hain 13661.

"Not only did this culture hero gain an ardant welcome or these ideas and practices (antiquarianism, study of elegant Latin, study of Greek, etc.), but he shaped them into a single movement that came to dominate the culture of the age: to have established the vogue and ideology of classical antiquity and humaniustic studies was Petrarch's most significant achievement.

Caxton leaf. Higden, Ranulphus.

| Polychronicon.
|
[Westminster]: William Caxton, [after July 2 1482]. 2 leaves, being (1) leaf of text CCLV and (2) the colophon leaf CCCCxxxviii. Both leaves are rubricated. The first leaf has old manuscript notes in the margins. In good condition. A great rarity. Though Caxton leaves are not uncommon (there have been three Caxton leaf books published, and occasionally stray single leaves turn up), it is of the utmost rarity to see a Caxton colophon. This colophon is 14 lines and begins: "And here I make an ende of this lytel Werke as nigh as I can fynde after the forme of the werk to fore made by Ranulph monk of Chestre / And where as ther is fawlte/ I beseche them that shal rede it to correcte it..." and ends: "prayenge of all them that shall see this symple werke to pardone me of my symple / and rude wrytynge/ Ended the second day of Juyll the xxcvii yere of the regne of kynge Edward the fourth & of the incarnation of oure lord a thousand four honderd foure score and tweyne / Fynysshed per Caxton". Goff H-267. DeRicci 49. Pforzheimer 489 (Goff states 490 in error?). Oates 4080.
