D'abrera, A. Y
The Tribunal of Zaragoza and Crypto-judaism 1484-1515 (Europa Sacra)
|
Brepols Publishers. Hardcover. 2503524729 Since the opening of the Inquisition's archives in Spain in the nineteenth century, historians and anthropologists alike have seized upon the institution and its remarkable archival legacy, and have scrutinized it from a multitude of political, socio-economic, and cultural angles. Perhaps one of the most contentious hypotheses to have recently emerged from the field has been Benzion Netanyahu's proposal that the inquisitors fabricated charges of Judaizing against the Spanish New Christians (Christians of Jewish descent). This book questions Netanyahu's hypothesis by turning to the extant trial records from Aragon's tribunal of Saragossa, and employing them as a case study. This range of documents provides ample evidence of a true survival of Jewish ritual life and culture among the Aragonese conversos who were living and working in Saragossa at the end of the fifteenth century. When the Inquisition was established in Saragossa in 1484, members of the converso communities across Aragon, although denominationally Christian, were secretly observing the rituals of Judaism. Whether a continuing observance of the Sabbath, Yom Kippur, or Passover, enduring Jewish dietary practices or a deeply rooted prayer life, the picture of converso daily life which emerges from the trial records is essentially a Jewish one. 242p, 1 b/w line art (Brepols Publishers 2008). 9782503524726. Hardback . New. 2008-01-01.

GILLES DE CORBEIL (or AEGIDIUS CORBOLIENSIS)
De Pulsibus
|
[48] leaves, Gothic type, ca. 32 lines. Small 4to (193 x 145 mm.), attractive antique panelled calf. Padua: M. Cerdonis, January 1484. First edition of the first printed book on the pulse. The art of feeling the pulse dates back to legendary antiquity in both Greek and Chinese medicine and is still used as a scientific method of investigating the functioning of the heart. De Pulsibus is a textbook composed in verse by the French physician and humanist Gilles de Corbeil (fl. 1200), the celebrated French physician who was a pupil of the school of Salerno and Montpellier and later went to Paris, where he was archiater to Philip Augustus and probably taught in the university. Called by Neuburger !the transalpine herald of the glory of the school of Salerno,! Gilles composed three important medical poems that amplified and paraphrased the entire Salernitan doctrine in Latin hexameters. The first poem, on urine, appeared in print in 1483; it was considered the classical text on uroscopy until the end of the 16th century. The present work, on the pulse, appeared in 1484 and Gilles! third work was on the virtues of compounded drugs. !The description of the different kinds of pulse, methods of examining the patient, of studying the urine, advice about the behaviour of the physician, and invectives against the pharmacists are presented in facile and elegant form.!!Castiglioni, p. 316. Gilles de Corbeil!s texts were !of great influence in transmitting the teachings of the school of Salerno.!!Stillwell 648. The text contains the valuable commentary of Gentile da Foligno (d. 1348), the prominent professor of medicine at Bologna, Perugia, Siena, and Padua. He was the first European physician to perform a dissection on a human being. The editor was Avenantius de Camerino (15th-16th cent.). Fine copy. Stamp F.E. Chattard M.D. on front flyleaf and stamp of the Medical and Chirurgical Library of Maryland beneath the colophon. ❧ Garrison, An Introduction to the History of Medicine, p. 151. Goff A-92.

Ptolemaeus, Claudius (100-178 ca.).
Quadripartitum. Centiloquium cum commento Hali.
|
Venezia, Erhard Ratdolt, 15 gennaio 1484. "In-4° (mm 204x156). Segnatura: a-g8, h12. 64 carte non numerate. Testo su due colonne di 42 linee. Caratteri 76G e 56(75)G. Diagrammi astrologici incisi su legno alle cc. a1v e a8v. Tre tabelle astrologiche rispettivamente alle cc. b3r, b3v e b4v. Alla c. a2r l’incipit dell’opera (prime 8 righe) stampato in rosso e due iniziali silografiche ornate recanti coloritura coeva in rosso verde e giallo. Iniziali silografiche ornate su fondo criblé nel testo. Al verso dell’ultima carta si trovano 5 righe stampate in rosso e orientate rispetto al lato lungo del foglio che non fanno parte dell’opera. Legatura posteriore in pergamena con titolo in oro al dorso. Esemplare in ottimo stato di conservazione, qualche lieve fioritura e qualche alone alle prime carte; la seconda carta lievemente rimarginata al margine inferiore. Note manoscritte di mano coeva in latino ai margini del testo. Al contropiatto anteriore ex-libris novecentesco inciso: ‘Maurice Burrus député du Ht Rhin m.cm.xxxvii’. Prima rarissima edizione di quest’opera tolemaica, il Tetrabiblos o Quadripartitum, da considerarsi fondamentale, poiché essa sta alla base di tutta l’astrologia moderna. Il trattato godette di una vasta diffusione, venne letto e copiato per tutto il Medioevo e, essendo divenuto l’originale greco scarsamente accessibile, ne vennero fatte traduzioni in latino – come la presente – tratte dalle traduzioni arabe allestite in area iberica nel xii secolo. Nel Tetrabiblos Tolomeo «disciplina l’oroscopo individuale, considerando così l’astrologia per la prima volta quale cosiddetta arte congetturale, diretta ad evidenziare la natura dell’individuo sulla scorta del suo oroscopo individuale» (Cantamessa ii, 807). La presente edizione, contraddistinta dalla grande eleganza tipografica che caratterizza tutte le impressioni veneziane del Ratdolt, contiene anche il Centiloquium, attribuito a Tolomeo, che è una raccolta di un centinaio di sentenze astrologiche, qui accompagnate dal commento attribuito all’arabo Abu Ja’far Ahmad ibn Yusuf. I due trattati propongono dunque un’astrologia dettagliata, basata sugli elementi, in cui viene identificata una relazione tra i pianeti, le coppie di qualità e molte tra le qualità degli oggetti terrestri e i pianeti che possiedono le stesse qualità. Il nostro esemplare è arricchito dalla presenza, al verso dell’ultima carta, di una prova di stampa dell’incipit di un’opera giuridica, peraltro mai stampata, fatta su un foglio poi riutilizzato per la presente edizione. Questa particolarità è presente anche in pochissimi altri esemplari del Quadripartitum come, ad esempio, quello della British Library. First very rare edition of Ptolemy’s Quadripartitum, considered a milestone of modern astrological science. The Latin text is based from the 12th century Arabic translations from Greek made in Spain. The treatise is followed by the Centiloquium, a collection of astrological sentences ascribed to Ptolemy and always published, or copied, together with the first work. Our copy has the following peculiarity: «Across the lower half of the last page is printed in red, with type 65G, an impression of two headings from a law book: “Decretalium super quinque libris […]” other copies containing this peculiarity are known» (BMC v, 288). Beautiful copy, with the initials on the first leaf of text coloured in red, green and yellow. The leaf a2 remargined in the lower. Later vellum binding. 20th century engraved bookplate of Maurice Burru in the inner board. HC* 13543; Goff P, 1088; IGI 8186; BMC v, 288; Cantamessa P, 3642; Essling 313; Sander 5980."

Muy pocos datos se tienen de la biografía de este famoso filósofo y teólogo; sin embargo nos han quedado testimonios que dan clara muestra de la influencia que ejerció sobre sus contemporáneos, siendo reconocido como uno de los más interesantes predicadores de su tiempo en Alemania, y es recordado además por la difusión que hizo de la doctrina espiritual a través de la prédica. Magnífico ejemplar amplio de márgenes y muy limpio; totalmente completo incluyendo la primera hoja, que es blanca. Referencias: Hain 14826; Goff S-586; Proctor 440; BMC I, p.102; IBE 1736 Third edition, rubricated throughout, of this beautiful incunabula containing the Sermons by the German philosopher and theologist Frater Soccus, for others Conradus von Brundelsheim.

[BOTANY / HERBAL / GART DER GESUNDHEIT]
Herbarius zu teutsch unnd von allderhandt kreuteren
|
Johann Schonsperger Folio [24.5 x 15.5 cm], 261 ff., lacking the first blank leaf. Quarter blind-tooled vellum over cont. boards, rebacked to style, spine in 4 compartments with raised bands, clasps with leather hinges. Around 400 cont. hand-colored woodcuts. Scattered fingersoiling and marginal repairs. A very attractive copy. Extremely rare, complete (see below) edition of "the most important medieval work on natural history with illustrations" (Choulant) and the first printed vulgate herbal. Klebs, the great historian of herbals, has compared the Gart der Gesundheit to Vesalius' De humani corporis fabrica, alleging it "marks a similar milestone in the evolution of the healing art into a science." Unlike De humani corporis, however, we can be certain that the present work occupied an immensely popular spot in the limited canon of 15th century "layman's books," accessible to and used by learned and unlearned alike. In contrast with its contemporary rival, Lignamine's Apuleius (1484), the Gart der Gesundheit's pictures are generally taken from Nature rather than ancient manuscripts, it does not uncritically reproduce the superstitious herbal lore of past generations, and most significantly, it is printed in the vulgate. These factors have served to convince most historians of science that the present text truly was "the only botanical incunabulum of real importance" (Blunt & Stearn) and "the chef d'oeuvre of all early herbals and the real starting point for the future direction of scientific publications." (Klebs)Although the present work became unrivalled in popularity (running through 16 German editions, 6 other vulgate translations, and 8 loosely based Latin editions), its widespread use doomed it to extreme rarity. By appearing in the vulgate, the Gart der Gesundheit would have appealed to non-professionals as well as herbcutters, apothecaries, and physicians; "I have had it made in German that it may help all the world, learned and unlearned," declares the unknown author in his preface. The rough-and-tumble lifestyle of a domestic herbal has taken its toll over 500 years. We have managed to check 16 US copies of incunable editions by inspection or from reliable records; of these, only 8 are complete. The present volume thus affords an extremely rare example of this influential work in its entirety, of which only two other copies are known to exist in America. This, the sixth Augsburg edition, is essentially a reprint of the second edition of 1486 with smaller type, presumably for an even wider circulation. The second edition contained 13 more woodcuts than the original, and this particular printing contains a few more additions. Johann Schonsperger masterfully pirated the first edition of the Gart der Gesundheit only five months after it was published in 1485 by Schoffer, the technical genius in the enterprise of Gutenberg and Fust; many other pirated editions followed.The Gart der Gesundheit may be considered equally important as a monument of the German language, being one of most substantial texts preserved from this period, and representing "a remarkable source for folklore and dialect studies" (Klebs). Although the format of the work appears to follow the traditional model of picture, description, and medicinal uses, both German and Arabic names are noted, as well as the Latin and Greek. The original and fascinating index of the medicinal powers of plants ("Was den schlaff bringt," etc.) must have proved invaluable to the user. According to the preface, the compiler, having discovered that many of the herbs mentioned by the Ancients did not grow in Germany, set out for the Holy Land to pursue what must have been the first botanical expedition in history, if the claim is true. Despite this, several species that the artist presumably never managed to see are illustrated in the traditional style-for example, the charming male and female mandrakes.

Some of the incunable capitals have been supplied in an old hand. Juvenal (fl. A.D. 100)was the last great Roman satiric poet, and although it is not certain, it is generally believed that he was a member of the imperial court of Domitian who fell out of favor for lampooning a court favorite. His work was largely unpopular until the fourth century when Lactantius quoted him by name and Ausonius, among others, imitated him. Juvenal's satire may be seen as a protest against the corruptions of Rome in his day, and the works were greatly admired throughout the Middle Ages and became the model for many satirists in the Renaissance and thereafter. Persius Flaccus (A.D.34-62), Etruscan knight and Stoic, is best remembered for his satires. His works were much read in Anitquity and the Middle Ages, but for his contorted thought, language, and many digressions, they are little read today. Donne emulated him, and his work has been compared for its flavor to that of Auden. Juvenalis: Goff J650. Hain 9697. IGI 5588. Proctor 4630. BMC V324. Schweiger I, 500. ISTC ij00650000.

Herbarius zu te�tsch unnd von allderhandt kreuteren
|
Folio [24.5 x 15.5 cm], 261 ff., lacking the first blank leaf. Quarter blind-tooled vellum over cont. boards, rebacked to style, spine in 4 compartments with raised bands, clasps with leather hinges. Around 400 cont. hand-colored woodcuts. Scattered fingersoiling and marginal repairs. A very attractive copy. Extremely rare, complete (see below) edition of "the most important medieval work on natural history with illustrations" (Choulant) and the first printed vulgate herbal. Klebs, the great historian of herbals, has compared the Gart der Gesundheit to Vesalius' De humani corporis fabrica, alleging it "marks a similar milestone in the evolution of the healing art into a science." Unlike De humani corporis, however, we can be certain that the present work occupied an immensely popular spot in the limited canon of 15th century "layman's books," accessible to and used by learned and unlearned alike. In contrast with its contemporary rival, Lignamine's Apuleius (1484), the Gart der Gesundheit's pictures are generally taken from Nature rather than ancient manuscripts, it does not uncritically reproduce the superstitious herbal lore of past generations, and most significantly, it is printed in the vulgate. These factors have served to convince most historians of science that the present text truly was "the only botanical incunabulum of real importance" (Blunt & Stearn) and "the chef d'oeuvre of all early herbals and the real starting point for the future direction of scientific publications." (Klebs)Although the present work became unrivalled in popularity (running through 16 German editions, 6 other vulgate translations, and 8 loosely based Latin editions), its widespread use doomed it to extreme rarity. By appearing in the vulgate, the Gart der Gesundheit would have appealed to non-professionals as well as herbcutters, apothecaries, and physicians; "I have had it made in German that it may help all the world, learned and unlearned," declares the unknown author in his preface. The rough-and-tumble lifestyle of a domestic herbal has taken its toll over 500 years. We have managed to check 16 US copies of incunable editions by inspection or from reliable records; of these, only 8 are complete. The present volume thus affords an extremely rare example of this influential work in its entirety, of which only two other copies are known to exist in America. This, the sixth Augsburg edition, is essentially a reprint of the second edition of 1486 with smaller type, presumably for an even wider circulation. The second edition contained 13 more woodcuts than the original, and this particular printing contains a few more additions. Johann Schonsperger masterfully pirated the first edition of the Gart der Gesundheit only five months after it was published in 1485 by Schoffer, the technical genius in the enterprise of Gutenberg and Fust; many other pirated editions followed.The Gart der Gesundheit may be considered equally important as a monument of the German language, being one of most substantial texts preserved from this period, and representing "a remarkable source for folklore and dialect studies" (Klebs). Although the format of the work appears to follow the traditional model of picture, description, and medicinal uses, both German and Arabic names are noted, as well as the Latin and Greek. The original and fascinating index of the medicinal powers of plants ("Was den schlaff bringt," etc.) must have proved invaluable to the user. According to the preface, the compiler, having discovered that many of the herbs mentioned by the Ancients did not grow in Germany, set out for the Holy Land to pursue what must have been the first botanical expedition in history, if the claim is true. Despite this, several species that the artist presumably never managed to see are illustrated in the traditional style-for example, the charming male and female mandrakes.

GILLES DE CORBEIL (or AEGIDIUS CORBOLIENSIS)
De Pulsibus
|
[48] leaves, Gothic type, ca. 32 lines. Small 4to (193 x 145 mm.), attractive antique panelled calf. Padua: M. Cerdonis, January 1484.p First edition of the first printed book on the pulse. The art of feeling the pulse dates back to legendary antiquity in both Greek and Chinese medicine and is still used as a scientific method of investigating the functioning of the heart. De Pulsibus is a textbook composed in verse by the French physician and humanist Gilles de Corbeil (fl. 1200), the celebrated French physician who was a pupil of the school of Salerno and Montpellier and later went to Paris, where he was archiater to Philip Augustus and probably taught in the university. Called by Neuburger !the transalpine herald of the glory of the school of Salerno,! Gilles composed three important medical poems that amplified and paraphrased the entire Salernitan doctrine in Latin hexameters. The first poem, on urine, appeared in print in 1483; it was considered the classical text on uroscopy until the end of the 16th century. The present work, on the pulse, appeared in 1484 and Gilles! third work was on the virtues of compounded drugs. !The description of the different kinds of pulse, methods of examining the patient, of studying the urine, advice about the behaviour of the physician, and invectives against the pharmacists are presented in facile and elegant form.!!Castiglioni, p. 316. Gilles de Corbeil!s texts were !of great influence in transmitting the teachings of the school of Salerno.!!Stillwell 648. The text contains the valuable commentary of Gentile da Foligno (d. 1348), the prominent professor of medicine at Bologna, Perugia, Siena, and Padua. He was the first European physician to perform a dissection on a human being. The editor was Avenantius de Camerino (15th-16th cent.). Fine copy. Stamp F.E. Chattard M.D. on front flyleaf and stamp of the Medical and Chirurgical Library of Maryland beneath the colophon. ❧ Garrison, An Introduction to the History of Medicine, p. 151. Goff A-92.

Cicero, Marcus Tullius
De officiis [and other works].
|
Venetiis [Venice]: Bernardinus Rizus, Novariensis & Bernardinus Celerius, 12 Oct. 1484. Folio. [180 of 182] ff., lacking b4-5. Reprinted from the de Tortis edition of March 1484, this edition includes the author's De officiis, De amicitia (Laelius), De senectute (Cato maior), and Paradoxa, and the the commentaries of Petrus Marsus, Omnibonus Leonicenus, and Martinus Phileticus. The volume is printed in roman throughout, with guide letters in the spaces for capitals (unaccomplished); Cicero's text is printed in a large point size and is surrounded on three sides by commentary in a smaller one. The register and printer's device are found on the recto of the last leaf. The recto of leaf a1 is blank, the text of the prefatory matter beginning on the verso. Evidence of readership: This copy bears marginalia and inter-linear writing in an early hand on many, many pages to approximately the middle of the volume and then lessening. Extensive notes appear on the blank pages a1r (in Latin, 16th-century hand) and [con]8v (in English, 17th-century hand). The word "comparatia" appears in the same early hand at the top of many of the pages with inter-linear writing and/or marginalia. Provenance: Signature of "John Webb" in a 17th-century hand twice in margin of k3r. Uncommon beyond the Continent: ISTC and Goff locate only two copies in the U.S. and ISTC locates only two copies in the U.K. (one incomplete), but there is a third copy at the British Library. ISTC ic00601000; Goff C601; HC 5274*; IGI 2910; Pr 4942; BMC, V 400; GKW 6954. Full modern walnut calf old style: Spine with raised bands, accented with gilt and blind rules, the latter extending onto covers to terminate in trefoils with blind double fillets beyond. Gilt center devices in the spine compartments. Red leather spine label lettered in gilt, and date in gilt at base of spine. Lacking two leaves (b4-5). Upper corners of leaves in gatherings & and [con] damaged with loss of paper. Lower corner of i1 torn with loss of text of both sides of leaf. Waterstaining and old dampstaining variously, this often faint and never really worse than moderate (worst at beginning/end); some age-toning and dustsoiling. => Though an imperfect copy, a rarity; indeed, with its manuscript enhancements, a "uniquum."

Tommaso Alessandrino, Venezia 1484 - In folio (mm. 304x205); 302 carte non numerate (mancante la prima carta bianca). Piena pergamena settecentesca. Taglio spruzzato di rosso. Fascicolazione: a-DD8 (a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, A, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, AA, BB, CC, DD composti di 8 carte, tranne "a" che ne comprende 7, h, x, EE e FF da 10 cc. e B composto da 14 cc. Testo in carattere tondo su una colonna in 55 linee.Seconda edizione posteriore di un solo anno alla prima, pubblicata, sempre a Venezia, da Scoto. Bell'esemplare di questa celebre opera storica (ed. princeps 1483) che nelle tre decadi di cui è composta tratta delle vicende storiche comprese tra il 410, data della presa di Roma da parte di Alarico, e il 1439, data della chiusura del Concilio di Firenze. Flavio Biondo (Forlì 1392- Roma 1463) fu storico e filologo di gran spicco nel panorama umanistico del XV secolo; profondo conoscitore delle antichità romane e italiane in genere, venne molto apprezzato dai contemporanei e dai posteri. Di lui il Carducci scrisse che "avvertì la importanza delle mutazioni e trasformazioni operate dall'invasione dei barbari, i segni dell'età che ne seguì contrapponendo a quei dell'antica: fece stima giusta delle cose contemporanee, oculato assai nella scelta e nel raffronto degli autori, e serbò pur nell'esposizione un fare sciolto". Alla carta 249 sono posti il colophon, alcuni versi in onore del Biondo composti da Giovanni Antonio Campano (celebre poeta, filosofo e filologo del XV secolo) e il registro dell'opera. Attualmente è in corso di redazione un'edizione nazionale delle sue opere. La seconda parte dell'edizione riporta in XX libri la Abbreviatio di Papa Pio II, Enea Silvio Piccolomini, sulle Decades del Biondo, cioè un compendio delle stesse, edite nel 1481 originariamente.Alcune macchie alla legatura, nota di possesso manoscritta al piatto superiore (Sig. D. Geron.o Targiano) leggermente spellata sul piatto inferiore, dorso brunito; piccoli lavori di tarlo al margine inferiore delle carte q1-q5; qualche leggera e sporadica fioritura; numerose note antiche manoscritte, compresa una numerazione al margine alto delle carte 1-65.BMC V-317; Hain, I, 3249; IGI, 1737; Goff, B-699; GW 4420.

OTTO VON PASSAU.
A fine mixture of Christian and Pagan wisdom Boec des gulden thrones of der xxiiij ouden ende hoemen elken vinden mach ende van hoerren leringhen die si leren om te comen totten ewighen leven.
|
Haarlem, (Jacob Bellaert), 1484. - Folio. Modern vellum. With large woodcut printer's device on verso of last leaf, 24 woodcut illustrations of one of the "Old Men" teaching a young female kneeling in front of him, printed from 4 different blocks, and all initials suplied by hand, incl. several beautiful large initials richly decorated and coloured by hand in red and purple with fine penwork in the margins, text rubricated throughout. (1 blank, 3), 136 (=135), (1) lvs. The second Dutch edition of Otto van Passau's religious instructive work, first published at Utrecht in 1480. "The Golden Throne of the 24 Old Men" is the only work known to have been left by Otto Von Passau, a Franciscan preacher who lived in the second half of the 14th century. The work is to be dated at 1383, and represents a fine mixture of Christian and Pagan wisdom. It is divided into 24 chapters, each containing a lecture by one of the old men of the Apocalipse, teaching nuns and brothers of lay orders a way of life which will lead them to the "Golden Throne" of eternal bliss. Each lecture has its own theme, like the essence of God and man, mourning, confession and penance, love, hope, the sacraments, friendship, death, the chosen, hell, the last things, etc. The work remained popular until the beginning of the 17th century. The book is finely printed in a good sized lettre bâtarde, in two columns, with 39 lines to a column. It is also most attractively illustrated with charming woodcuts, printed from four different blocks, which came originally from Haarlem block books. The first four leaves contain the table of contents and prologue. Our copy is furthermore richly and beautifully adorned with decorated initials in colour supplied by hand and rubricated throughout. Good large-paper copy, with contemporary owner's manuscript entry on verso of first blank, and early 17th century manuscript provenance on blank verso of the Prologue.- (Sl. thumbed and waterst., rather severily waterst. at the end; margins of last leaves restored without loss of text).

Closter Weisenvä (?) zu besehen, woselbst mir gantz unverdienet viele Ehre erwiesen worden, wofür ich gehorsamsten Danck abstatte, und habe zum Andencken meiner Wenigkeit dieses Buch dahin verehren wollen". Zobel, der seinen Namen später zu "Bezol" anagrammatisierte, wanderte als Buchbindergeselle durch Deutschland und "wurde nach seiner Rückkehr nach Altdorf 1727 Adjunkt der Teutschen Schule, später deren Präzeptor und kaiserlicher Rat. Er führte einen ausgedehnten Briefwechsel und initiierte eine erfolgreiche Bibel-Lotterie, deren Gewinn zur Erbauung der Stadtkirche in Altdorf verwendet wurde" (DBE). - Am vorderen Innendeckel Exlibris "From the Library of George Dunn of Woolley Hall, Maidenhead".

Zu seinen Sammelgebieten zählten außer Handschriften und Wiegendrucken (von denen er über 1300 besaß) auch Astronomie, Horologie und Baumkunde. Seine so umfangreiche wie prächtige Sammlung wurde 1913-17 bei Sotheby's an vier Terminen versteigert. Dunns ansprechend schlichtes typographisches Exlibris schuf um 1898 der Maler und Grafiker Edward Burne-Jones unter Verwendung der von William Morris (in Anlehnung an Jensons venezianische Lettern) entworfenen "Golden Type"; gedruckt wurde es in Morris' berühmter "Kelmscott Press".

Borghi's text covers 'operations with integers, fractions, compound numbers, mercantile rules, currency, commercial problems, barter, and matters relative to partnership' (Stillwell). It was a staple of the Abbaccho classroom of fifteenth-century Italy, with its chapters on currency exchange and barter, providing the computational skills on which the trading and financial empires of all the Italian city-states depended. In his Commercial Revolution and the Beginnings of Western Mathematics, Van Egmond has argued for a close causal link between the techniques described in mercantile arithmetics and the historical advent of capitalism. (See also the similar line pursued by Frank J. Swetz, Capitalism and Arithmetic. The New Math of the 15th century.) 'This work is more elaborate than the Treviso arithmetic, and had a far greater influence on education. More than any other book it set a standard for the arithmetics of the sixteenth century, and none of the early textbooks deserves more careful study. Borghi first treats of notation, carrying his numbers as far as "numero de million de million de million" and making no mention whatever of the Roman numerals. In the same spirit he eliminates all of the medieval theory of numbers, asserting that he does this because he is preparing a practical book for the use of merchants' (Smith). 'The boys (there is no record of any girls attending these schools) began their training in the abacus schools around the age of 10 or 11, usually immediately after two years in an elementary grammar school where they learned the basic skills of reading and writing. They generally stayed in the abacus schools for about two years and were taught the basic principles of arithmetic and practical mathematics: how to write the numbers, how to multiply and divide, how to deal with fractions, and how to solve the basic mathematical problems. Sections of the course were also devoted to understanding the complex Florentine monetary system. The school even followed a familiar routine of lessons, exercises, recitations and even an occasional holiday party. It appears that nearly all the educated men of the Renaissance gained their basic understanding of mathematics in schools such as these, including, for example, such notables as Leonardo da Vinci and Niccoló Macchiavelli. When grouped with the earlier schools of reading and writing, higher schools of Latin grammar, and the educational apex of the university, it is apparent that the abacus schools were an integral part of an educational system' (van Egmond, pp 8-9).

PERSIUS FLACCUS, Aulus.
Satirarum opus.
|
Incunable edition of one of the great Roman satirists, edited by Bartolomeo Fonzio Venice, Dionysius de Bertochis & Pelegrinus de Paschalibus Bononienses, 10 September 1484. Sm. folio (292 x 205 mm). Vellum over boards (rebacked). Woodcut printer's device on last leaf (Device A), not rubricated (capital spaces not filled in), printed in Roman type: 110R and 83R. Collation: a-d6, e4; (28) leaves. One of the incunable editions of the satires of Persius with the gloss (commentary) of Bartolomeo della Fonte (Fonzio, or Fontius). According to the BMC, the text is 'reprinted, generally with the same page-contents, from the edition of De Tortis, 14 March, 1482'. Fonzio's dedication to Lorenzo de' Medici of 1477 is included on the verso of the first leaf (recto blank).Bartolomeo Fonzio (1445-1513) was a Florentine humanist whose achievements are on a par with those of Poliziano. Their early friendship later turned into enmity and unremitting polemics. Fonzio's commentary on Persius was first published in 1477 at the Ripoli press (Rhodes 315; Conway, p. 292); its dedication to Lorenzo de' Medici is reprinted here. His purpose was to firmly establish Persius as a satirical poet; it was not his intention to write a full commentary on Persius'work, but rather to give a clear and straightforward interpretation of the text and to free it from its obscurities.Aulus Persius Flaccus (AD 34-62), known generally as Persius, was one of the most famous Latin satirical poets. Born at Volaterrae in Etruria, he belonged to an equestrian family and was a relative of the famous Arria, wife of Paetus. He was educated at Rome, and became the pupil of the Stoic Cornutus, who exercised a strong influence on him; a fellow pupil was the Roman epic poet Lucan. He joined the group of Stoics around Thrasea Paetus, the senator who was married to the younger Arria. He bequeathed his books and a part of his large fortune to Cornutus, who accepted the books but not the money. Persius took no part in public life, died young, and left only a small amount of literary work: six satires (650 hexameter lines) modelled on Lucilius and Horace, and a prologue. Except for the first satire, these poems are homilies rather than satires in the strict sense, preaching an uncompromising Stoic morality as it could be applied to private life, and only incidentally touching on public life. He uses an incongruous mixture of styles and his language is obscure, but his moral sincerity is unforced and scarcely priggish when considered against the background of Nero's Rome.Satire I is a criticism of the poets at Nero's court and the contemporary fashion for elegant, unrealistic poetry, which Persius finds significant of the corruption of Roman virtue and hardihood. Satire 2 is concerned with the right use of prayer, mocking those who ask for external goods rather than virtue. Satire 3 is a diagnosis of the damage done to sick souls by sloth and vice. Satire 4 urges a young statesman (Nero?) to disregard public admiration and pursue virtue by examining his own character. Satire 5 is a eulogy of Cornutus, describing the simple and studious life the poet leads when in the philosopher's company; its subject is the rarity of true freedom-we are all the slaves of our passions or superstitions. Satire 6 is addressed to Caesius Bassus (a lyric poet commended by Quintilian) who edited Persius' satires after his death and is said to have died in the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79; it expounds the wisdom of living comfortably, but not covetously. Good copy with wide margins.- (Quires carefully washed; inner margins of last quire restored, with some marginal water staining).

The next great step was taken in 1234 with the Libri Quinque Decretalium (1253) of Gregory IX, which formed the basis of the Corpus Juris Canonici. The Liber Sextus of Boniface VIII (1298), the last great collection of the pre-Reformation era, consists of updates and modifications. The Clementinae Constitutiones (1313) is a collection of papal legislation that modifies portions of the Liber Sextus. It was followed by the Extravagantes Joannes XXII and the Extravagantes Communes in 1325. All of these texts were edited after the Council of Trent in 1582 under the collective

La Bibbia d'Oro Del Secolo Illustrata Con Miniature Desunte Dai Principali Manoscritti Medievali. Edizione Integrale Della Traduzione Del Vecchio e Del Nuovo Testamento Curata Dalla Conferenza Episcopale Italiana. [The Golden Bible of the Century]
|
European Marketing Projects 260 x 370 x 70 Mm / 967 Pages Cuir / Leather Roma Copy #1484 / 2000 2000 If there is a work that best represents the sublime mingling of art and literature that complete each other in a rare crescendo of beauty, that is certainly the "Golden Bible of the Century", the publishing event of the III millennium. When leafing through the work we see the most precious and mystical testimonies of medieval Christian art through refined illuminations, in gold leaf which evoke the manuscripts of Romanic, Gothic and Renaissance periods. To fully appreciate the completeness and richness of the catalogued material, remember that the documentation has been taken from the most important sources, including the precious Bibles of the Pantheon and Duke Berry in the late 14th century, the New Testament from 1250 and the Urbinate Bible, the most famous renaissance manuscript, where we can recognise the hands of Ghirlandaio and Attavante. A great and unrepeatable publishing effort that places this magnificent work among the most famous Bibles in the word and for future generations will be witness to the birth of a new millennium, where the unchanged Word of God will continue to light the path of believers for ever. The Golden Bible of the Century contains 280 illuminations and 1,400 illuminated capital letters coming from more than 70 European libraries and collections, which were performed by the best writers of the time. This way the spiritual unity of Europe and the Near East is clear and we gain a new knowledge of the relationship between the Old and New Testaments, between Hebrew heritage and its conservation by the Catholic church. In choosing the illustrations, consideration was given to the strict connection between the test and the image. Not only does the Golden Bible of the Century take its images from biblical and evangelist manuscripts, but also iconographic manuscripts, Psalters, pericopes and books of hours, so that it reflects the continuous contrast (that includes all literary culture) of the Medieval era with the stories and promises in the Holy Scriptures. The wide range of illustrations, Christian rather than millenary illuminations, gives an impressive documentation of the changed interpretation of the bible. This is also very closely tied to the change in iconographic representations, where we can recognise the antique conception of the world and faith together with the historic background. Numerous illustrations come from Codex in the Vatican Apostolic Library: = Illuminated Hebrew manuscripts show a tradition that has never halted. = Byzantine works of art with the coloured ornamental mats show the spreading of the Christian faith. = The Golden Bible of the Century contains some famous golden gospels by Reichenau and Echternach made for Otto III, Henry II and Henry III, the Pantheon Bible, the Gumpertus Bible, the Hamilton Bible and the Venceslao Bible, the Ingeborg Psalter, the Saint Ludovic Psalter, the Bamber Apocalypse, "The very rich Book of Hours of Duke Berry" and many other important and priceless manuscripts. In the Golden Bible of the Century we can discover the illuminations coming from important European Libraries and collections.e collezioni Europee. Copy #1484 / 2000. PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

A fine mixture of Christian and Pagan wisdom Haarlem, (Jacob Bellaert), 1484. Folio. Modern vellum.With large woodcut printer's device on verso of last leaf, 24 woodcut illustrations of one of the "Old Men" teaching a young female kneeling in front of him, printed from 4 different blocks, and all initials suplied by hand, incl. several beautiful large initials richly decorated and coloured by hand in red and purple with fine penwork in the margins, text rubricated throughout. (1 blank, 3), 136 (=135), (1) lvs. The second Dutch edition of Otto van Passau's religious instructive work, first published at Utrecht in 1480. "The Golden Throne of the 24 Old Men" is the only work known to have been left by Otto Von Passau, a Franciscan preacher who lived in the second half of the 14th century. The work is to be dated at 1383, and represents a fine mixture of Christian and Pagan wisdom. It is divided into 24 chapters, each containing a lecture by one of the old men of the Apocalipse, teaching nuns and brothers of lay orders a way of life which will lead them to the "Golden Throne" of eternal bliss. Each lecture has its own theme, like the essence of God and man, mourning, confession and penance, love, hope, the sacraments, friendship, death, the chosen, hell, the last things, etc. The work remained popular until the beginning of the 17th century. The book is finely printed in a good sized lettre bâtarde, in two columns, with 39 lines to a column. It is also most attractively illustrated with charming woodcuts, printed from four different blocks, which came originally from Haarlem block books. The first four leaves contain the table of contents and prologue. Our copy is furthermore richly and beautifully adorned with decorated initials in colour supplied by hand and rubricated throughout. Good large-paper copy, with contemporary owner's manuscript entry on verso of first blank, and early 17th century manuscript provenance on blank verso of the Prologue.- (Sl. thumbed and waterst., rather severily waterst. at the end; margins of last leaves restored without loss of text).

Invloeden van de Verlichting zijn duidelijk aanwezig, maar zeker ook van de Romantiek. Humor, gevoeligheid en de voortdurende uitweidingen doen denken aan het werk van de Engelse humoristische schrijver Laurence Sterne. 'Gedachten van Jean Paul' is een bloemlezing uit zijn werk. Het zijn de eerste teksten van hem die in het Nederlands werden vertaald. Weilands uitvoerige inleiding wordt door Elisabeth Jongejan geprezen als "de eerste niet-vertaalde grondige en vaak ook origineele bespreking van het humor-verschijnsel in Nederland". Pas twintig jaar later, toen hier de "humor-cultus" zijn volle omvang bereikte, werd de waardering voor Jean Paul algemeen.

PERSIUS FLACCUS, Aulus.
Incunable edition of one of the great Roman satirists, edited by Bartolomeo Fonzio Satirarum opus.
|
Venice, Dionysius de Bertochis & Pelegrinus de Paschalibus Bononienses, 10 September 1484.. Sm. folio (292 x 205 mm). Vellum over boards (rebacked). Woodcut printer's device on last leaf (Device A), not rubricated (capital spaces not filled in), printed in Roman type: 110R and 83R. Collation: a-d6, e4; (28) leaves.. One of the incunable editions of the satires of Persius with the gloss (commentary) of Bartolomeo della Fonte (Fonzio, or Fontius). According to the BMC, the text is 'reprinted, generally with the same page-contents, from the edition of De Tortis, 14 March, 1482'. Fonzio's dedication to Lorenzo de' Medici of 1477 is included on the verso of the first leaf (recto blank).Bartolomeo Fonzio (1445-1513) was a Florentine humanist whose achievements are on a par with those of Poliziano. Their early friendship later turned into enmity and unremitting polemics. Fonzio's commentary on Persius was first published in 1477 at the Ripoli press (Rhodes 315; Conway, p. 292); its dedication to Lorenzo de' Medici is reprinted here. His purpose was to firmly establish Persius as a satirical poet; it was not his intention to write a full commentary on Persius'work, but rather to give a clear and straightforward interpretation of the text and to free it from its obscurities.Aulus Persius Flaccus (AD 34-62), known generally as Persius, was one of the most famous Latin satirical poets. Born at Volaterrae in Etruria, he belonged to an equestrian family and was a relative of the famous Arria, wife of Paetus. He was educated at Rome, and became the pupil of the Stoic Cornutus, who exercised a strong influence on him; a fellow pupil was the Roman epic poet Lucan. He joined the group of Stoics around Thrasea Paetus, the senator who was married to the younger Arria. He bequeathed his books and a part of his large fortune to Cornutus, who accepted the books but not the money. Persius took no part in public life, died young, and left only a small amount of literary work: six satires (650 hexameter lines) modelled on Lucilius and Horace, and a prologue. Except for the first satire, these poems are homilies rather than satires in the strict sense, preaching an uncompromising Stoic morality as it could be applied to private life, and only incidentally touching on public life. He uses an incongruous mixture of styles and his language is obscure, but his moral sincerity is unforced and scarcely priggish when considered against the background of Nero's Rome.Satire I is a criticism of the poets at Nero's court and the contemporary fashion for elegant, unrealistic poetry, which Persius finds significant of the corruption of Roman virtue and hardihood. Satire 2 is concerned with the right use of prayer, mocking those who ask for external goods rather than virtue. Satire 3 is a diagnosis of the damage done to sick souls by sloth and vice. Satire 4 urges a young statesman (Nero?) to disregard public admiration and pursue virtue by examining his own character. Satire 5 is a eulogy of Cornutus, describing the simple and studious life the poet leads when in the philosopher's company; its subject is the rarity of true freedom-we are all the slaves of our passions or superstitions. Satire 6 is addressed to Caesius Bassus (a lyric poet commended by Quintilian) who edited Persius' satires after his death and is said to have died in the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79; it expounds the wisdom of living comfortably, but not covetously.

Invloeden van de Verlichting zijn duidelijk aanwezig, maar zeker ook van de Romantiek. Humor, gevoeligheid en de voortdurende uitweidingen doen denken aan het werk van de Engelse humoristische schrijver Laurence Sterne. 'Gedachten van Jean Paul' is een bloemlezing uit zijn werk. Het zijn de eerste teksten van hem die in het Nederlands werden vertaald. Weilands uitvoerige inleiding wordt door Elisabeth Jongejan geprezen als "de eerste niet-vertaalde grondige en vaak ook origineele bespreking van het humor-verschijnsel in Nederland". Pas twintig jaar later, toen hier de "humor-cultus" zijn volle omvang bereikte, werd de waardering voor Jean Paul algemeen.

La Bibbia d'Oro Del Secolo Illustrata Con Miniature Desunte Dai Principali Manoscritti Medievali. Edizione Integrale Della Traduzione Del Vecchio e Del Nuovo Testamento Curata Dalla Conferenza Episcopale Italiana. [The Golden Bible of the Century]
|
European Marketing Projects 260 x 370 x 70 Mm / 967 Pages Cuir / Leather Roma Copy #1484 / 2000 2000 If there is a work that best represents the sublime mingling of art and literature that complete each other in a rare crescendo of beauty, that is certainly the "Golden Bible of the Century", the publishing event of the III millennium. When leafing through the work we see the most precious and mystical testimonies of medieval Christian art through refined illuminations, in gold leaf which evoke the manuscripts of Romanic, Gothic and Renaissance periods. To fully appreciate the completeness and richness of the catalogued material, remember that the documentation has been taken from the most important sources, including the precious Bibles of the Pantheon and Duke Berry in the late 14th century, the New Testament from 1250 and the Urbinate Bible, the most famous renaissance manuscript, where we can recognise the hands of Ghirlandaio and Attavante. A great and unrepeatable publishing effort that places this magnificent work among the most famous Bibles in the word and for future generations will be witness to the birth of a new millennium, where the unchanged Word of God will continue to light the path of believers for ever. The Golden Bible of the Century contains 280 illuminations and 1,400 illuminated capital letters coming from more than 70 European libraries and collections, which were performed by the best writers of the time. This way the spiritual unity of Europe and the Near East is clear and we gain a new knowledge of the relationship between the Old and New Testaments, between Hebrew heritage and its conservation by the Catholic church. In choosing the illustrations, consideration was given to the strict connection between the test and the image. Not only does the Golden Bible of the Century take its images from biblical and evangelist manuscripts, but also iconographic manuscripts, Psalters, pericopes and books of hours, so that it reflects the continuous contrast (that includes all literary culture) of the Medieval era with the stories and promises in the Holy Scriptures. The wide range of illustrations, Christian rather than millenary illuminations, gives an impressive documentation of the changed interpretation of the bible. This is also very closely tied to the change in iconographic representations, where we can recognise the antique conception of the world and faith together with the historic background. Numerous illustrations come from Codex in the Vatican Apostolic Library: NEW / NEUF

Muy pocos datos se tienen de la biografía de este famoso filósofo y teólogo; sin embargo nos han quedado testimonios que dan clara muestra de la influencia que ejerció sobre sus contemporáneos, siendo reconocido como uno de los más interesantes predicadores de su tiempo en Alemania, y es recordado además por la difusión que hizo de la doctrina espiritual a través de la prédica. Magnífico ejemplar amplio de márgenes y muy limpio; totalmente completo incluyendo la primera hoja, que es blanca. Referencias: Hain 14826; Goff S-586; Proctor 440; BMC I, p.102; IBE 1736

With large woodcut printer's device on verso of last leaf, 24 woodcut illustrations of one of the "Old Men" teaching a young female kneeling in front of him, printed from 4 different blocks, and all initials suplied by hand, incl. several beautiful large initials richly decorated and coloured by hand in red and purple with fine penwork in the margins, text rubricated throughout. (1 blank, 3), 136 (=135), (1) lvs.. The second Dutch edition of Otto van Passau's religious instructive work, first published at Utrecht in 1480. "The Golden Throne of the 24 Old Men" is the only work known to have been left by Otto Von Passau, a Franciscan preacher who lived in the second half of the 14th century. The work is to be dated at 1383, and represents a fine mixture of Christian and Pagan wisdom. It is divided into 24 chapters, each containing a lecture by one of the old men of the Apocalipse, teaching nuns and brothers of lay orders a way of life which will lead them to the "Golden Throne" of eternal bliss. Each lecture has its own theme, like the essence of God and man, mourning, confession and penance, love, hope, the sacraments, friendship, death, the chosen, hell, the last things, etc. The work remained popular until the beginning of the 17th century. The book is finely printed in a good sized lettre batarde, in two columns, with 39 lines to a column. It is also most attractively illustrated with charming woodcuts, printed from four different blocks, which came originally from Haarlem block books. The first four leaves contain the table of contents and prologue. Our copy is furthermore richly and beautifully adorned with decorated initials in colour supplied by hand and rubricated throughout. Good large-paper copy, with contemporary owner's manuscript entry on verso of first blank, and early 17th century manuscript provenance on blank verso of the Prologue.- (Sl. thumbed and waterst., rather severily waterst. at the end; margins of last leaves restored without loss of text).

Sm. folio (292 x 205 mm). Vellum over boards (rebacked). Woodcut printer's device on last leaf (Device A), not rubricated (capital spaces not filled in), printed in Roman type: 110R and 83R. Collation: a-d6, e4; (28) leaves. One of the incunable editions of the satires of Persius with the gloss (commentary) of Bartolomeo della Fonte (Fonzio, or Fontius). According to the BMC, the text is 'reprinted, generally with the same page-contents, from the edition of De Tortis, 14 March, 1482'.

Wormholes to some leaves with negligible loss to text, foxing to margins of some leaves, interior otherwise fresh. * With a register of titles and D'Andrea's Super Arboribus Consanguinitatis et Affinitatis. Attempts to codify the body of canon law began in earnest during the Carolingian Empire. These efforts reached fruition between 1020 and 1025 in the twenty-volume Decretum of Burchard, Bishop of Worms. The next great step was taken in 1234 with the Libri Quinque Decretalium (1253) of Gregory IX, which formed the basis of the Corpus Juris Canonici. The Liber Sextus of Boniface VIII (1298), the last great collection of the pre-Reformation era, consists of updates and modifications. The Clementinae Constitutiones (1313) is a collection of papal legislation that modifies portions of the Liber Sextus. It was followed by the Extravagantes Joannes XXII and the Extravagantes Communes in 1325. All of these texts were edited after the Council of Trent in 1582 under the collective.

Woodcut printer's device on last leaf (Device A), not rubricated (capital spaces not filled in), printed in Roman type: 110R and 83R. Collation: a-d6, e4; (28) leaves.. One of the incunable editions of the satires of Persius with the gloss (commentary) of Bartolomeo della Fonte (Fonzio, or Fontius). According to the BMC, the text is 'reprinted, generally with the same page-contents, from the edition of De Tortis, 14 March, 1482'. Fonzio's dedication to Lorenzo de' Medici of 1477 is included on the verso of the first leaf (recto blank).Bartolomeo Fonzio (1445-1513) was a Florentine humanist whose achievements are on a par with those of Poliziano. Their early friendship later turned into enmity and unremitting polemics. Fonzio's commentary on Persius was first published in 1477 at the Ripoli press (Rhodes 315; Conway, p. 292); its dedication to Lorenzo de' Medici is reprinted here. His purpose was to firmly establish Persius as a satirical poet; it was not his intention to write a full commentary on Persius'work, but rather to give a clear and straightforward interpretation of the text and to free it from its obscurities.Aulus Persius Flaccus (AD 34-62), known generally as Persius, was one of the most famous Latin satirical poet. Born at Volaterrae in Etruria, he belonged to an equestrian family and was a relative of the famous Arria, wife of Paetus. He was educated at Rome, and became the pupil of the Stoic Cornutus, who exercised a strong influence on him; a fellow pupil was the Roman epic poet Lucan. He joined the group of Stoics around Thrasea Paetus, the senator who was married to the younger Arria. He bequeathed his books and a part of his large fortune to Cornutus, who accepted the books but not the money. Persius took no part in public life, died young, and left only a small amount of literary work: six satires (650 hexameter lines) modelled on Lucilius and Horace, and a prologue. Except for the first satire, these poems are homilies rather than satires in the strict sense, preaching an uncompromising Stoic morality as it could be applied to private life, and only incidentally touching on public life. He uses an incongruous mixture of styles and his language is obscure, but his moral sincerity is unforced and scarcely priggish when considered against the background of Nero's Rome.Satire I is a criticism of the poets at Nero's court and the contemporary fashion for elegant, unrealistic poetry, which Persius finds significant of the corruption of Roman virtue and hardihood. Satire 2 is concerned with the right use of prayer, mocking those who ask for external goods rather than virtue. Satire 3 is a diagnosis of the damage done to sick souls by sloth and vice. Satire 4 urges a young statesman (Nero?) to disregard public admiration and pursue virtue by examining his own character. Satire 5 is a eulogy of Cornutus, describing the simple and studious life the poet leads when in the philosopher's company; its subject is the rarity of true freedom-we are all the slaves of our passions or superstitions. Satire 6 is addressed to Caesius Bassus (a lyric poet commended by Quintilian) who edited Persius' satires after his death and is said to have died in the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79; it expounds the wisdom of living comfortably, but not covetously.

Attempts to codify the body of canon law began in earnest during the Carolingian Empire. These efforts reached fruition between 1020 and 1025 in the twenty-volume Decretum of Burchard, Bishop of Worms. The next great step was taken in 1234 with the Libri Quinque Decretalium (1253) of Gregory IX, which formed the basis of the Corpus Juris Canonici. The Liber Sextus of Boniface VIII (1298), the last great collection of the pre-Reformation era, consists of updates and modifications. The Clementinae Constitutiones (1313) is a collection of papal legislation that modifies portions of the Liber Sextus. It was followed by the Extravagantes Joannes XXII and the Extravagantes Communes in 1325. All of these texts were edited after the Council of Trent in 1582 under the collective
