RÜXNER, Georg.
   
Thurnier Buch. Von Anfang, Ursachen, Ursprung, und Herkommen, der Thurnier im heyligen Römischen Reich teutscher Nation. Frankfurt on the Main, Georg Rab for S. Feyerabend and S. Hüter, 1566. 3 parts in 1 volume. Folio (31 x 20 cm). With 3 printed title-pages, first title-page printed in red and black with large woodcut; 2 double-page woodcuts (versos blank), 79 woodcut illustrations in the text, woodcut coats of arms on 78 pages, and woodcut printer's device on last leaf. Contemporary pigskin over wooden boards, richly blind-stamped in blind.
      (6), 243, (3); (4), 81 ll. Adams R-877; FairMur (G) 374. Third edition with new cuts throughout and enlarged with a second and third part. The tournament, as it is properly called, appears in Europe in the eleventh century. From its introduction, participation in a tournament was considered to be a sport for men of noble birth, and the participants' lists were jealously closed to all combatants but the members of the privileged classes. The first part of Rüxner's book describes tournaments in Germany and Switzerland from 938 to 1487. Some of these, including the Magdeburg tournament of 938, are fictitious. The author provides information on the tournament laws, the names of the participating nobility, the names and arms of the winners, the prizes, etc. In the German countries, questions about purity of lineage of candidates who applied for admission to a noble chapter, were often settled by an appeal to the fact that an ancestor had taken part in a tournament. The second and third part, both published here for the first time, describe tournaments and games held at Vienna from May 2 to June 24, 1565, and the ceremonial entrance into Bintz of Charles V and his sons on August 22, 1549.The woodcut illustrations in this edition are all new. Some of these are signed I.A. (Jost Amman) including the fine large cut of the tournament of 1565, printed on E4 and repeated on DD6. Other cuts are signed "H.B." and attributed to Hans Bocksperger.Slightly discoloured in places; annotation in ink on first title, partly erased; final blank leaf and flyleaf at the end missing; clasps of binding missing, a bit stained and worn, lower margin of rear cover repaired). A very good copy in a contemporary binding.

GALEN,
   
De medicamentorum compositione secundum locos
      GALEN. GUENTHER, Johann, von Andernach (1487-1574). De medicamentorum compositione secundum locos, libri decem, nunc primum in lucem editi. Iaonne Guinterio Andernaco interprete, cum indice omnium qu[a]e notatu digna sunt, copiosissimo. Venice: (Colophon: Venetiis in Officina Lucaeantonii Iuntae Florentini), 1536. Collation: 8vo: [maltese cross]-3[maltese cross]8 A-2C8, 232 leaves, ff. [24] 207 [1]. Roman letter with Italic headings, woodcut printer's device on title and verso of last leaf. Condition: 183 x 116mm. A few gatherings browned and some light dampstaining. Binding: Contemporary limp vellum. Spine torn but sound, ties lacking. In a cloth folding case. Provenance: Contemporary inscription on front free endpaper 'Liber est Iohannis marie de peppis [uncertain: bernchidetis?] quem emi[cancellation] die xxiiii febbruarii Rome [cancellation] precio xii [uncertain: baceti? presumably a unit of money] [cancellation of the word "de"]' (This book belongs to Giovanmaria de Peppis [uncertain: Bernchidetis] which I bought on the 24th of February in Rome at the price of 12 [coins]). Annotations apparently in the same hand throughout, including notes on medicines and several words of Greek. References: EDIT16 CNCE 20162; Wellcome 2564; Durling 1862; not in Adams. Reprint of the second edition of the translation and commentary by Guenther von Andernach; the first seven books were published at Paris in 1530, the first separate edition of Galen's text, and a second edition, containing ten books, was published in 1535, of which this seems to be a reprint. There was also a Basle edition of 1530, with other works. ¶ An attractive copy with contemporary annotations of an early printing of the first separate edition of Galen's work on the diseases of different parts of the body and their treatment with compound medicines. The edition was prepared by Guenther von Andernach for his pupils in Paris, among whom was the young Vesalius, who studied with Guenther from 1533 until 1536, when this edition was printed in Venice and Vesalius moved to Padua. Vesalius assisted Guenther in his public lectures and in the preparation of his Institutiones anatomicae (Paris, 1536), which he in turn edited for his own students at Padua in 1538. From his strongly Galenic training with Guenther, Vesalius took his stand in the dedicatatory epistle in the Fabrica against fashionable doctors who scorned to use their hands, and left the preparation of medicine to druggists, unlike Galen who prepared all his own medicines. All the early editions of Guenther's recension of the text are rare, and this Venice edition is the earliest in the Wellcome Library and National Library of Medicine catalogues. There is no modern edition or translation of Guenther's text.

Il Codice Trivulziano. [Italian Edition].
      Gruppo Editoriale Giunti Firenze; ril. in cofanetto, pp. 138, ill. b/n, cm 25x36. (Opere. Leonardo da Vinci). [+American Edition]. Compilato verso il 1487-1490, tra i più antichi manoscritti del corpus leonardiano conosciuto, il codice rispecchia il desiderio di Leonardo, tutt'altro che "omo sanza lettere", di impadronirsi del latino e organizzare in liste lessicali le voci della lingua italiana riguardanti la scienza, la filosofia e le materie umanistiche in genere. Molte parole furono reinterpretate da Leonardo, che attribuì loro un significato nuovo e le usò in differenti contesti, lasciando un documento prezioso per la storia della lingua di quel periodo. Oltre alle liste di vocaboli, esso comprende un'importante serie di disegni caricaturali tesi a indagare la fisiognomica, che formano una curiosa galleria di ritratti reali e immaginari. Di grande interesse, inoltre, gli studi per un concorso per il tiburio del Duomo di Milano e alcuni progetti di architettura militare. Nell'edizione qui presentata il facsimile è accompagnato da un volume con trascrizione diplomatica e critica di Anna Maria Brizio e riproduzioni di figure invisibili portate alla luce mediante speciali fotografie.

BOSSE, Abraham.
   
Moyen Universel de Pratiquer la Perspective sur les Tableaux, ou Surfaces Irregulieres.Paris, Abraham Bosse, 1653 (1669 issue). 8vo in 4s. With engraved frontispiece, plus engraved part-title and 32 numbered engraved plates printed on 18 leaves (15 printed on both sides), including 2 folding. Contemporary mottled calf with gold-tooled spine and board edges. Red sprinkled edges.
      (1), (1 blank), "75" [= 78], (1) pp. Brunet I, col. 1127; Cicognara 820; Goldsmith, STC BMC French 1487; Ornamentstichsammlung 4718; DSB II, pp. 333-334; NBG VI, cols. 786-787.First edition, second(?) issue, with the folding plate 32 dated June 1669, of Bosse's practical and beautifully illustrated handbook of perspective and projective geometry, a seminal work in the development of art and architecture. Bosse (1602-1676), draftsman and engraver, worked closely with mathematition Girard Desargues, who presented the now standard theory of mathematical perspective in 1636. It was largely through Bosse's more detailed and extensively illustrated publications (also translated into Dutch and other languages) of Desargues's ideas and sometimes also his texts, that knowledge of mathematical perspective spread to artists, architects and others around the world. Bosse also made original contributions by extending Desargues's work, most importantly in the present work, where he includes not only the relatively simple projection of figures constructed from straight lines, but also the much more difficult projection of and onto regular and irregular curved surfaces.Desargue and Bosse's work on perspective was hotly debated but gained the support of the Académie Royale, which assigned Bosse a teaching position and offered him an honorary membership. There are at least two issues of the first edition, the 1653 issue for which Cicognara calls for 31 numbered plates and an engraved dedication to the Cologne banker and collector Everhard Jabach (1618-1695), and the present 1669 issue with the folding plate 32 and no engraved dedication, but copies are known with 32 plates and the dedication. Our copy exactly matches the collation given in the Berlin Ornamentstichsammlung, with the 1669 plate and without the dedication. The four-page avertissement is followed by a general introduction in 13 chapters (pp. 5-39), the present copy with plate 32 before chapter 12. The letterpress notes to plates 1-31 follow (pp. 41-78, the last misnumbered "75"), preceded by the engraved part-title with a Greek-key border: "Explication par Figures et par Discours, des choses ci devant dites" (dated 1653, like the letterpress general title-page: the note on the last letterpress page, below the errata, notes that the ptrinting was completed on 5 May 1653).With a pencil note indicating this copy came from the 1879 auction of the library of the art historian Marie-Joseph-François Mahérault. A good copy. Binding slightly rubbed, with cracks in the hinges and with the head and foot of the backstrip damaged. First edition of a seminal work on perspective with the 1669 extra folding plate.

Aesopus (Aesop):
   
Vita et Fabulae. (GW 00350, HC 327). Blatt aus der "Fabulae Aviani".
      Basel, Jacob Wolff 1487 - 88. Type 9 (Nikolaus Kessler Type 9).. Einspaltiges, 44-zeiliges Original-Inkunabelblatt mit zwei 7-zeiligen Holzschnittinitialen (R u. S) und einem Holzschnitt (12,2 x 8,3 cm). Wasserzeichen, Reste von Papiermontagestreifen im Rand, mehrere kl. Wurmlöcher im Blatt, Blattgröße: 27,8 x 20 cm. Incunabula text woodcut leaf.. Der Drucker Jacob Wolff von Pforzheim wird seit 1481 in Basel erwähnt. Da er zuerst als Geschäftsgenosse und Buchhändler Amerbachs auftritt und anschließend als Lohndrucker für Adam von Speyer und Jacob von Kilchen tätig war, beginnt seine Druckertätigkeit lt. Gesamtkatalog der Wiegendrucke (GW) um 1487. Dieses Blatt aus dem Aesop ist somit seinem frühesten Druckwerk zuzurechnen. Wolff druckt seinen lateinischen Aesopus erstmals mit den neuen Holzschnitten, die Amerbach, wohl Besitzer der Holzschnitte, zum zweiten Mal, noch vor 1489 in seinem deutschen Aesop (GW 363) verwendet. Wolff nutzt die Holzschnitte zum dritten Male im Jahre 1501. Deutlich zeigt sich im Verlaufe der Zeit eine Abnutzung der Holzschnitteinfassungslinien. Der GW verzeichnet 50 Drucke Wolffs von denen nur dieser mit Holzschnitten illustriert ist. (Geldner 1968 I, 124 ff.; GW; F. Schanze: Wer druckte den deutschen Aesop?

      [Anton Sorg,] [Augsburg:] [c1487.] Chancery Folio. 265 x 185 mm. a-c4,d-e6,j-g6,h-i6,k-l8,m-o6. Complete 98 ff = 186pp. Modern blind-tooled calf over original wood boards (some worming in boards), has decorated brass furniture but lacks clasp. A few marginal wormholes (a few letters touched) and minor dampstains in upper margin at end. Early index in manuscript on front paste-down, contemp. religious note at bottom of b8v, old ownerÕs inscription on recto of last leaf ÒBartholomaeus Weldpach.Ó dated 1528.Provenance: from the collection of Bjarne Saxhof (1953-2003), Civil Engineer, Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby. Saxhof assembled a fine collection of printed books and manuscripts, including some important private press books Gothic type 50/51 lines per page, Initials supplied in red throughout. The Gesta is Ò.a medieval collection of illustrative tales and anecdotes for the use of preachers. Its name indicates what is supposed to be its unifying element: accounts of happenings in ancient Rome. Each story has a title suggesting a virtue or vice and an appendix pointing to a moral. The first collection, in Latin, was probably the work of an English Franciscan about 1330. Continuously expanded, it exerted a strong influence upon later writers such as Chaucer and Gower and enjoyed a considerable vogue well into the 16th century.Some stories, e.g. AtalantaÕs Race, derive from Greek myth; others, e.g. Androcles and the Lion, from late classical times. Several come fromAleandrian romance, Appolonius of Tyre being a notable example. Jewish and Indian lore, Christian writers like Geoffrey of Monmouth and local legends also provided a rich quarry.Ó [CassellÕs Ency. of World Lit.] Hain/Copinger 7739. GW 10895. Goff G290. Ce3 G290.

MEFFRETH
   
SERMONES MEFFRETH. AL'S ORTULUS REGINE DE TEMPORE ET DE SANCTIS
      s.n. 1487 prima del . 33x21.5 cm., in folio, [315] ; [231] ; [197] cc., interamente rubricato in rosso, eccetto per l'iniziale del prologo del De Sanctis, in verde e rosso., I tre volumi hanno legature differenti: De Tempore (vol. 1-2), legature recentemente restaurate in pergamena dei secoli XV e XVII ; De Sanctis: legatura coeva di ambito nordeuropeo con piatti in legno, pelle di scrofa con disegni geometrici incisi a secco sui piatti, testo a due colonne, 55 linee, alcune note manoscritte dei secoli XV e XVI: glosse a margine, note di possesso di mano quattro e cinquecentesca, alcune glosse presumibilmente del secolo XV , tarli ai piatti e ad alcune carte, in parte restaurati, al vol. terzo De Sanctis: pregiudizio ad alcune lettere, peraltro superbo stato di conservazione, straordinaria freschezza, con ampi margini, in latino I sermoni di Meffreth o Ortulus Reginae (i.e. Chiesa) e l'unica opera di questo scrittore, del quale poco o nulla si sa, se non quello che lui stesso ci ha lasciato nel prologo di entrambe le parti delle sue opere. Da cio si desumono anche gli anni di composizione dell'opera: nel 1443 fu terminata la parte De Sanctis, e subito dopo venne iniziata la parte De Tempore (hyemalis - aestivalis) nella quale fino al Sermone 96 ossia la XX domenica post trinitatis (cfr. pars Hyemalis, verso c. EE3) viene considerato valido l'anno 1447. Secondo Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie la stampa piu antica che si conosca di questa opera e Hain 10999 (la nostra edizione), a questa seguirono ben poche altre edizioni, e precisamente: 9 edizioni nel XV secolo (Hain 11000 - 11008) ; alcune edizioni nel XVI (non una e stata rinvenuta nei repertori consultati: ADAMS, BMC, EDIT 16) ; XVII secolo (cfr. Coloniae Agrippinae, Hieratus, 1625, 3 vol. in quarto). Graesse cita altre tre edizioni nel secolo XVII, non si conoscono edizioni successive. Incerti sono anche i dati di stampa, l'unica cosa certa e che in questa, che e considerata l'editio princeps, non compaiono dati. L'ipotesi piu accreditata e Basilea, Nikolaus Kesler, dopo il II VII 1486 [come riporta IGI], sicuramente prima del 1487, anno a cui risale Hain 11000. . 1.Pars Hyemalis - 2.Estiualis - 3.De Sanctis

Lyra, Nicolaus de:
   
3rd Koberger Bible with commentary by Nicolas de Lyra from 1487.
      Nuremberg, Anton Koberger, December 3, 1487, 1487. Folio. Half Calf. Good. Biblia latina - cum postillis Nicolai de Lyra. Volume 3 (of 4). 348 leaves (AA-GG10 HH12 II-MM10 NN12 OO8 PP-TT10 VVXX6 ZZAAA-FFF10 GGGHHH8 III-MMM10 NNN8), 16 woodcuts. Format: Folio; 32 x 23 x 7.5 cm. Restored half-bound calf with original wooden covers. Nuremberg, Anton Koberger, December 3, 1487. Third part of the third Koberger Bible with the earliest illustrations made in the workshop of Anton Koberger. The volume contains 16 woodcuts, some of them of full-page size. Especially worth mentioning is the artistic and detailed illustration of the vision of Ezekiel. The other woodcuts depict e.g. the ground plan of the temple, town views or genealogical trees. Nicolas de Lyra's comments are arranged around the Bible text in a manner which is very typical for Anton Koberger's Bible prints. Restored half-bound calf with 4 raised bands. The spine was bound in calf leather in modern times and decorated with gilt lettering (giving wrong printing date and place as 1499 in Basel). The original wooden covers were not bound in calf leather. The clasps were probably added in modern times as well. Condition of the binding: Good/ Condition of the paper: Good - Very good/ Further remarks: Calf leather slightly rubbed. Front cover with worm holes, therefore a little fretted at one edge. One of the brass clasps is fragmentary. Paper in good condition, only slightly browned and occasionally a little stained. Some pages with marginal notes. First and last leaves a little frayed and stained. Last seven leaves with hole in margin (without loss of text). Altogether a marvellous copy in an extraordinary good condition. The early Koberger woodcuts make this edition an absolute rarity. This is the third volume of the third Koberger Bible. It contains the following parts of the Bible: Liber Esaie, Liber Hieremie, Liber Trenoy (Lamentations), Liber Baruch, Liber Ezechielis, Liber Danielis and the 12 "minor prophets (from Liber Osee to Liber Machabeoy). The "Biblia Latina cum postillis Nicolai de Lyra" was first printed in 1481 and even Martin Luther used it. At this time, Anton Koberger was already a master of his art and printed mainly religious works written in Latin, but also judicial, philosophical and historical ones. Some of the most famous prints from his workshop are the two-volume German Bible and the world chronicle by Hartmann Schedel ("Liber chronicarum", printed on July 12, 1493). The Koberger printing shop in Nuremberg quickly became one of the most famous in Europe. In 1505, Koberger gave up printing and concentrated on trading and publishing books. In this context, he opened agencies all over Europe, e.g. in Lyon, Basel, Regensburg, Wien, Budapest, Breslau and Krakau. Thus, Koberger's business may be called one of the first large-scale enterprise in Europe.

      [Milan, Antonius Zarotus, c.1487.] Folio, 188 leaves, roman letter, capital spaces, a few contemporary annotations; a large crisp copy in an English late 17th / early 18th-century binding of marbled paper boards for Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun (see below), leather back strip renewed, original edges preserving MS title “Cornel Taciti”.

It includes an account of Britain and its tribes (these were the days of Boadicea), and even the weather, the continual rain and cloud.

From the library of the Scottish patriot Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun (1655-1716), with his signature on final blank and on rear paste-down. Fletcher’s library included almost fifty incunables, among them the Subiaco Augustine of 1467 and the Aldine Aristotle.
