Displayed below are selected recent viaLibri matches for books published in 1495 Slevogt, Max. Maler und Graphiker (1868-1932). Eigenh�ndige Postkarte mit Unterschrift und Federzeichnung.       Berlin, , 19. Januar (19)16. Qu.-8�. 1 1/2 S... . Im Zusammenhang mit Slevogts intensiver Besch�ftigung mit dem Thema "Indianer" hochinteressantes Dokument. Der K�nstler schreibt an den M�nchner Antiquar Emil Hirsch in der Karlstra�e 6, den er mit der Recherche nach historischen Indianermythen beauftragt hatte. Hirsch hatte ihm die "Historia verdadera de la conquista de la Nueva Espana", den Erlebnisberich der K�mpfe gegen die Ureinwohner Mexikos des Bernal Diaz del Castillo (1495-1584) beschafft (vgl. KNLL IV, 624): "Sehr geehrter Herr Hirsch! Also auch Sie haben kein Gl�ck mit den alten Indianergeschichten? - ich konnte inzwischen nur einiges wenige hier auftreiben, u. bin noch immer f�r derartiges Material sehr empf�nglich. Den Diaz de Castillo habe ich nun erhalten - die M�rchen u. Atala von Rene [?] noch nicht! - F�r Ihre "Nachrichten" dazu bin ich Ihnen dankbar! Was nun die beiden Radierungen betrifft, so ist die eine Eigentum des Dargestellten,- die andere einstweilen nur f�r einige Freunde u. Bekannte abgedruckt worden. Wenn jedoch hierin m. Erwerbssinn sprechen sollte, werde ich mich Ihres "Vertriebes" erinnern. Mit den besten Gr��en Ihr ergebener Max Slevogt." Bei "Atala" handelt es sich um den Roman der "Liebe zweier Wilder in der W�ste" ("Atala ou les amours de deux sauvages dans le desert") des Francois Rene, Vicomte de Chateaubriand (1768-1848), eines der "epochemachenden Werke der franz�sischen Romantik, [das] zusammen mit dem ebenso bedeutenden Roman 'Rene' in Chateaubriands f�nfb�ndiges theoretisches Werk 'Le genie du chistianisme' aufgenommen" wurde (KNLL III, 890). Slevogt suchte sicher eine dem original nahekommende Fassung des oft aufgelegten und �bersetzten Werkes, dessen Handlung er wie alle seine Zeitgenossen kannte: die Liebesgeschichte zwischen einem jungen Wei�en, einem nach Amerika ins Exil gegangenen Franzosen, der sich in die stolze Halbindianerin Atala verliebt. Die Indianertochter ger�t in den inneren Konflikt zwischen ihrer Liebe und der Keuschheit, die sie ihrer frommen Mutter gelobt hat und t�tet sich schlie�lich. Die 1908 bei Paul Cassirer unter dem bisher nicht gel�fteten Pseudonym "W. Claire" erschienene Indianergeschichte "Coranna" (Katalog 104) ist in derselben Leidenschaftlichkeit und dem Pathos abgefa�t wie der Roman Chateaubriands. Der Reiz am Exotismus im Zusammenhang mit der Auseinandersetzung um die "edle Wilde" wird in der Gestalt der stolzen H�uptlingstochter exemplarisch vorgef�hrt: Coranna verliebt sich - wie Atala - in einen Wei�en, dessen Tod sie f�rchterlich r�cht, dem sie gegen�ber den Avancen anderer Indianer die Treue bis in den selbstinszenierten eigenen Tod h�lt: "Im Tode vereint lagen die Liebenden tief unten auf dme Grund des Wassers und die Wogen brausten mit stolzem Rauschen �ber ihr sicheres Grab" (F/B 33, S. 66). - Max Slevogt, der zusammen mit Paul Cassirer und Tilla Durieux ausgelassene Indianerspiele regelrecht zelebrierte (vgl. dazu Guthmann, Scherz und Laune, Katalog 99 und 100), ist aller Wahrscheinlichkeit also nicht nur der Illustrator, sondern auch der Autor der Indianergeschichte "Coranna", die er unter dem starken Eindruck von Chateaubriand schrieb. Nicht zuletzt weisen auch einige Textstellen auf s�ddeutsches Idiom. Die humorvolle Federskizze zeigt einen Indianer, der sein Tomahawk in der Linken und ein Messer in der Rechten, dem Betrachter mit lautem Kriegsgeschrei durchs hohe Steppengras entgegenkommt.

Rare, early German translation of this extremely influential medical text that is believed to have originated from the school of Salerno during the Middle Ages. This edition, which is largely based on the 1490 Sorg version, first appeared in 1472 and became very popular with it going through a number of editions. However because of its popularity it was heavily used with the result that all the early editions are very rare. Goff only locates a single copy of this edition in America and that is in a private collection. All the other editions also have only one or two locations. "Authorities disagree even as to the approximate date of the original composition of this poem, but a date near 1100 would probably not be far wide of the mark, although it seems not to have been widely known until the middle of the thirteenth century. It is believed to have emanated from the school of Salerno; at least, that school's chief claim to popular fame rests with this long didactic poem which sums up most of the practical medical literature up to its time. The work itself is actually a catch-all of advice and instruction on how to preserve health, rules of hygiene and diet, simple therapeutics, and other instruction intended more for the laity than for the medical profession. It was committed to memory by thousands of physicians and, after the invention of printing, was published in nearly three hundred editions, in Latin as well as in several vernacular languages.

The text consists of a series of 50 sermons on the Prodigal Son.

Contemporary binding of dark brown calf blind stamped (velvet cover of the 17th century has been removed ), gilt edges.The letters on the clasp spell 'MARTIN', the name of the family who first owned the manuscript. This manuscript is in astonishingly good condition: still in its original binding, its illuminations are vibrant and crisp, its ivory-toned vellum clean and fresh. A product of the atelier of Jean Coene IV, the manuscript was either made for or adapted at an early stage for the Martin family. The clasps on the manuscript's binding are ingeniously designed to include all the letters of the Martin name, and seven prayers to St. Martin (the family's name-saint) were added at the end of the manuscript (ff89-90v) in a distinct yet professional scribal hand. The family's genealogy is the last item in the manuscript, written on its final leaf (f.91v).       [Bookseller: Antiquarian Bookseller, John Windle]  15.   Check availability:     ILAB   Link/Print   Incunable Bible - Biblia cum glossis ordinariis.cum expositione Nicolai de Lyra - Complete in Five Volumes       Paganinus de Paganinis, Venice 1495 - A remarkably near complete five volume of this important Bible. 1506 of 1512 leaves. 14th April 1495. Double columns of text with interlinear gloss, surrounded by commentary. 83 lines of commentary to a column. Illustrated with some fine woodcuts. All five volumes are bound in uniform modern faux leather, which is admittedly rather dull and unsympathetic, though practical. As an example, our bookbinder can rebind these volumes in contemporary style vellum for around �250-�300 per volume, but we can also have them rebound in calf, morocco or whatever takes your fancy. Occasionally shaved at the top margin affecting the headlines. Vol I. (14), 235 leaves. Missing final leaf FF6. Head of lower joint with minor loss. Final leaf with minor tear about 1/2 inch long affecting a few letters. Pretty clean inside with some waterstaining to top and bottom margins at front and rear. Vol II - 237-470 leaves. Some minor waterstaining to first and last few leaves, but again overall rather clean. Minor nick to raised band on spine. Vol III - 471- 499, 400-666 leaves. Generally tidy inside with the occasional streak or splodge. Around 10 leaves at rear softened slightly in the fore margin affecting about 1 inch of margin. Vol IV - 667- 1012 leaves. Small worm track affceting last six or leaves, just into text. Very minor staining to first and last few leaves, but overall internally very tidy. Four leaves (CCC1, CCC8, EEE1, and EEE8) in very neat pen facsimile. 4 inch tear to HHH7 which is nearly closed but affects a few letters. Vol V - blank, 1013-1397 leaves. Missing final colophon leaf. Final 20 leaves a trifle trimmed to the fore margin (about 1-2 millimetres). A little waterstaining to first few leaves. Early ink note scribbled out at bottom margin of first leaf. Some discrete early underlinings and marginalia. Small paper repair to bottom margin of leaf 1204 not affecting text. Some waterstaining to corners nearly throughout but generally failry clean. Around 6 leaves towards the back slightly softened in the fore margin, but it is only a small area affected. A rare opportunity to obtain a five volume incunabulum in near complete condition. ISTC ib00608000; Wild, M.F.

Foreign Theology 1495; OCLC WorldCat (6 copies); STCN (3 copies); for Courcelles & Maresius: NNBW II, cols. 357 & 868,One of three known issues, all from Amsterdam in 1659, of the first (and only separately published) edition of Courcelles's four-part reaction to Samuel Maresius's 1658 Joanna Papissa Restituta, which had attacked Courcelles. It discusses the theological views of Maresius (1599-1673), who regularly engaged polemics with many opponents. Daniel Zwicker's anonymous treatise at the end (with its own drop-title) explicitly replies to Maresius's book. Courcelles's book was suppressed in 1661 by order of the States of Holland, probably because of its Socinian influences.Etienne de Courcelles (1586-1659), a Swiss Protestant theologian, immigrated to Holland in 1634, where he edited the Elzevirs' critical edition of the Greek New Testament. The STCN records two different imprints for the present edition (the other giving the publisher as H. Dendrini, that is, Hendrick Boom) but the University of Toronto's Trinity College Library appears to have a third issue with the imprint of Jan Rieuwertsz. All appeared posthumously in the year of Courcelles's death. The Polish medical student Daniel Zwicker (1612-1678) received university degrees in Koningsberg and Leiden, and joined a Socinian circle at age thirty, but intellectual differences with the Polish Socinians led him to move to Amsterdam in 1657.With an early ownership inscription ("Liber M[.]nry[?] Huysburgensis") and the nineteenth-century bookplate (partly torn away) of the Neander Library (Rochtester Theological Seminary). With some underscoring and a marginal note identifying the author of the Judicium Viri. A very good copy. The paper covering the binding is rubbed and has a few small tears, but the binding is otherwise good.

Final leaf with minor tear about 1/2 inch long affecting a few letters. Pretty clean inside with some waterstaining to top and bottom margins at front and rear. Vol II - 237-470 leaves. Some minor waterstaining to first and last few leaves, but again overall rather clean. Minor nick to raised band on spine. Vol III - 471- 499, 400-666 leaves. Generally tidy inside with the occasional streak or splodge. Around 10 leaves at rear softened slightly in the fore margin affecting about 1 inch of margin. Vol IV - 667- 1012 leaves. Small worm track affceting last six or leaves, just into text. Very minor staining to first and last few leaves, but overall internally very tidy. Four leaves (CCC1, CCC8, EEE1, and EEE8) in very neat pen facsimile. 4 inch tear to HHH7 which is nearly closed but affects a few letters. Vol V - blank, 1013-1397 leaves. Missing final colophon leaf. Final 20 leaves a trifle trimmed to the fore margin (about 1-2 millimetres). A little waterstaining to first few leaves. Early ink note scribbled out at bottom margin of first leaf. Some discrete early underlinings and marginalia. Small paper repair to bottom margin of leaf 1204 not affecting text. Some waterstaining to corners nearly throughout but generally failry clean. Around 6 leaves towards the back slightly softened in the fore margin, but it is only a small area affected.

Other editions followed somewhat later, printed by Willem Vorsterman (NK 1286-7: no date and ca. 1520) and Jacob van Liesveld (NK 1288, ca. 1540). Around 1550 editions were printed in Antwerp by Michiel Hillen van Hoogstraten and Verdussen, and in Flushing by Tousainet le Sage.In the introduction is stated that the father of Philip the Handsome, the Emperor Maximilian I, had already promised in 1484 to issue new 'Keuren' to replace the three old ones, issued by Floris the Voogd (Florens the tutor, Count William of Bavaria and Philip of Bourgundy, which had become obsolete and often contradictory.The original charter of 1495, which is deposited in the Archives at Middelburg, was rediscovered in 1894 (see M.H. van Visvliet, 'De origineele keure van Zeeland van het jaar 1495', in: Eigen haard (1894), p. 492), and edited by the famous Dutch historian R. Fruin in 1920 who added also some later texts.

The first very rare issue of the original and only edition of one of the first books produced by the famous printer/publisher Aldus Manutius. In fact this edition is the third book that left the Aldine presses in the year Aldus started his printing activities in Venice. Aldus began his professional career as a teacher, not as a printer, and as such saw a need for the publication of the Greek and Latin classical authors, whose works figured high in the Renaissance humanist agenda. While many of these works had been published by the end of the fifteenth century, a large number had not yet seen print. This lack was especially acute in the case of Greek authors, and when Aldus decided to begin a printing business these authors were the ones he emphasized. His development of greek and italic fonts and, somewhat later the octavo format, point toward a carefully planned program for the dissemination of the ancient classics.Under Aldus's program, works of numerous Greek and Latin authors, including the present collection of Greek poetical texts, were published for the first time, and works by others appeared in better editions than had previously been available. The 'editiones principes' in this collection include 12 of the Ecloques of Theocrit, Hesiod's Theogonia (or De generatione deorum) and selections from the Greek Gnomic poets. It is the most interesting of all Greek Aldus editions, containing a wide variety of linguistic forms and packed with mythological or moralizing passages, and as such of highly interest for the educationalist and the history of humanism in general and the beginning of the study of Greek language and literature in particular. In his nearly twenty years as a printer, Aldus labored tirelessly at the press and left to the world a rich legacy of beautiful books and scholarly texts. These books are still admired for their attractive typography, clean lines, and good design as well as their scholarly contributions. Through his publications, Aldus contributed to the survival of many ancient texts and greatly facilitated the diffusion of the values, enthusiasm, and scholarship of the Italian Renaissance across the rest of Europe. Aldus demonstrated to the printing world that scholarly books could be produced finely as well as profitably; and he convinced the scholarly world of the value of printing. Also the present collection was published with the express understanding that it would be used in the classroom. In his preface and dedication to Bapt. Guarino, the son of Guarino Veronese, who taught Aldus Greek in Ferrara, the printer writes: "Here, most illustrious master, is the Theogonia of Hesiod, which you ask me to provide for the public instruction of your pupils". The other most important editio princeps present in this edition is the publication for the first time of 12 of the Ecloques of Theocrit, based on a manuscript in the Vatican (MS Vat. Gr. 1311). The first 18 eclogues are published here after the edition Milan 1480. The present Aldus edition of the Eclogues was taken as the basis for the Juntina edition of 1516 and has as such influenced the history of the text transmission of Theocrit's eclogues until the present day. The most famous 17th-century editor of Theocrit for instance, Daniel Heinsius from Leiden, admired this Aldus edition very much.There are two issues of this edition of which the first is the most rare. The differences - which are in general not very important as regards content - occur in the quires ZF and ?G (p. 77-80 and 85-100), the most obvious being the four verses on f.

Rare, early German translation of this extremely influential medical text that is believed to have originated from the school of Salerno during the Middle Ages. This edition, which is largely based on the 1490 Sorg version, first appeared in 1472 and became very popular with it going through a number of editions. However because of its popularity it was heavily used with the result that all the early editions are very rare. Goff only locates a single copy of this edition in America and that is in a private collection. All the other editions also have only one or two locations. "Authorities disagree even as to the approximate date of the original composition of this poem, but a date near 1100 would probably not be far wide of the mark, although it seems not to have been widely known until the middle of the thirteenth century. It is believed to have emanated from the school of Salerno; at least, that school's chief claim to popular fame rests with this long didactic poem which sums up most of the practical medical literature up to its time. The work itself is actually a catch-all of advice and instruction on how to preserve health, rules of hygiene and diet, simple therapeutics, and other instruction intended more for the laity than for the medical profession. It was committed to memory by thousands of physicians and, after the invention of printing, was published in nearly three hundred editions, in Latin as well as in several vernacular languages. Numerous variations and additional verses which accrued through the years have doubtless obscured the original state of the Regimen, but this collective effort remains one of the most revealing medical works of the Middle Ages" (Heirs of Hippocrates no. 75; Latin Strasbourg edition of 1491) 72 leaves.

La moral e muy graciosa historia del Momo; compuesta en Latin por el docto varon Leon Bapista Alberto Florentin. Trasladada en Castellano por Agust�n de Alma�an ...       First edition in Spanish of Alberti�s Momus [or De principe], translated by August�n de Alma�an andwith an introductory 8 pp. Exposici�n by the Toledo ascetic writer and scholar Alejo Venegas (1495?�1554?).An indispensable source for Alberti�s political thought and a �supremely interesting example of how the comic spirit of the early Renaissance expressed itself in literature� (Martini, below), Alberti�s Momus is a political and social satire set in the form of an allegorical/ mythological fable. Its mood is that of a light-hearted humanist jeu d�esprit; its humorous and even farcical manner was intended, as Alberti states in his preface, to make readers laugh while at the same time confronting them with serious political/social issues: in particular, with the question of what makes a good ruler. Macchiavelli apparently derived the title of his Il Principe from Alberti, and Erasmus too seems to have read it. �It could be that Erasmus when he talks of Momus lately hurled to earth by the indignant gods was echoing Alberti: for is there anywhere, in Lucian, or another, such a fate for Momus: But we do not need prodding by Erasmus to see in Momus the most conspicuous instance of the wake of Lucian ... Momus was written in the 1440s, twice printed in 1520, had no real breakthrough at either time. Yet it is demonstrably the most sustained, the most inventive offshoot from Lucian before Gulliver�s Travels, and it is on a scale which Lucian himself never attempted; while as its subtitle, Momus, seu de Principe, shows, it is also the halfway house between the Monarchy of Dante and that other Prince, of Machiavelli� � J. H. Whitfield, ��Momus� and the nature of humanism�, in Classical Influences in European Culture, ed. R. R. Bolgar, CUP 1971.Momus, son of Night in Hesiod�s Theogony, is the god of disorder, malevolence, ill-will and sarcasm. The most outspoken of all the gods, he is compelled to learn to hide his character through suffering certain injustices (according to the story told by Alberti in Book I) and, ironically, becomes the spirit of dissimulation, or of �mummery� in effect. Alberti gives his Momus a subtlety and �genius in evil-doing� that far exceeds anything in his antique sources � principally Lucian. But where Lucian�s satire has a bitter edge, that of Alberti is more genial and more fanciful. The story centers on Jupiter�s dealings with Momus, amidst a royal court of other gods and goddesses, each representing some human failing, excess or attribute. Jupiter himself, preoccupied solely with his own amusements, is a weak and vacillating ruler; unable to make firm decisions, he surrounds himself with advisors who are always badly chosen. His rule and its consequences may be referred, in comparison, to the allegory of Male Governo, or Bad Government painted by Ambrogio Lorenzetti in the Palazzo Pubblico in Siena. Book IV of the Momus centres on Alberti�s two most vividly drawn and original characters: Charon, representing wisdom and good sense, and Gelastro, a philosopher, as caricature of the absurdity of intellectual pretension.Palau 5193.

Italy (probably Ferrara), c.       - Size: 295 x 205mm. Written in an italic documentary hand. 1495. The numerous changes to the text which are rather roughly executed indicate that the document is a draft and not a fair copy. According to the document, twenty months ago a compromise was made between Hercules (Ercole) and Angela d'Este of Ferrara, spouses, together with "nepotes" [this word can mean grandsons or nephews] of the Duke of Ferrara on the side of his brother on one side of the case and Francis Grippius of Milan on the other side of the case: "Mensibus iam viginti peractis factum fuit compromisum inter dominos Herculem et Angelam iugales estenses et nepotes illustrissimi domini Ducis ferrarie ex parte fratris ex una parte et dominum franciscum Grippium mediolanensem ex alia". The process was finished and four months passed, but whereas one side responded immediately, the other side, in order to drag out the matter ("ut rem traheret"), neglected to respond. So the aforementioned spouses made an appeal to the senate and brought back a letter directed to the judges to the effect that the opposing party, under penalty of decree, should expedite and terminate the case within one month. A notice of the aforementioned letter was given to the judges. The duke is not named but he must have been Ercole I d'Este, Duke of Ferrara 1471-1505. Another Ercole d'Este, Lord of San Martino in Rio, married Angela Sforza, daughter of a cousin of Isabella of Aragon. She was born in 1479, married in 1491 and died in 1497 in Ferrara.Thus the document would hgave been written between 1491 and 1497. In excellent condition.       [Bookseller: Maggs Bros.

Thesaurus Vere Philosophie et Divine Sapientie a nonnullis de Apprehension... 61, [1] leaves. Leipzig: Wolfgang Stockel, August 1505.p A very attractive sammelband of many of the scientific works of Albertus Magnus (1200!1280), published by the de Gregoriis brothers, the majority in their second edition (although the Liber de Generatione & Corruptione is in its first edition). Proficient in all branches of science, Albertus Magnus was one of the most famous precursors of modern science in the High Middle Ages. !Albert!s principal importance for the history of modern science derives from the role he played in rediscovering Aristotle and introducing Greek and Arabic science into the universities of the Middle Ages...Albert!s early identification as a precursor of modern science undoubtedly stemmed from his empiricist methodology, which he learned from Aristotle but which he practised with a skill unsurpassed by any other Schoolman...He stated that evidence based on sense perception is the most secure and is superior to reasoning without experimentation. Similarly he noted that a conclusion that is inconsistent with the evidence cannot be believed and that a principle that does not agree with sense experience is really no principle at all.!!D.S.B., I, pp. 99-100. Particularly important is the De Mineralibus, here in its third printing (1st ed.: 1476). It is !one of the best and most comprehensive of the western medieval lapidaries, it was written about 1260...It is a compilation from earlier writers with the addition of some facts derived from the author!s own observations...Seventy stones are mentioned, arranged alphabetically, and Albertus says that gems differ from other stones in that in them the water element preponderates over the earthy constituents and he attempts to classify them by color.!!Adams, The Birth and Development of the Geological Sciences, pp. 144-45. Two further works by Albertus Magnus were printed by the de Gregoriis brothers and are not present: the Metaphysica (18 Dec. 1494) and the De Animalibus (21 May 1495), no doubt separately bound due to their extended texts and now lost. Bibliographical Details: Seven works in one volume, folio. I!VI: printed in double columns, 65 lines plus headline, gothic letter, initial spaces with guide letters, initials supplied in red with paragraph marks in blue (occasionally reversed), a few woodcuts, printer!s device at end.

Final leaf with minor tear about 1/2 inch long affecting a few letters. Pretty clean inside with some waterstaining to top and bottom margins at front and rear. Vol II - 237-470 leaves. Some minor waterstaining to first and last few leaves, but again overall rather clean. Minor nick to raised band on spine. Vol III - 471- 499, 400-666 leaves. Generally tidy inside with the occasional streak or splodge. Around 10 leaves at rear softened slightly in the fore margin affecting about 1 inch of margin. Vol IV - 667- 1012 leaves. Small worm track affceting last six or leaves, just into text. Very minor staining to first and last few leaves, but overall internally very tidy. Four leaves (CCC1, CCC8, EEE1, and EEE8) in very neat pen facsimile. 4 inch tear to HHH7 which is nearly closed but affects a few letters. Vol V - blank, 1013-1397 leaves. Missing final colophon leaf. Final 20 leaves a trifle trimmed to the fore margin (about 1-2 millimetres). A little waterstaining to first few leaves. Early ink note scribbled out at bottom margin of first leaf. Some discrete early underlinings and marginalia. Small paper repair to bottom margin of leaf 1204 not affecting text. Some waterstaining to corners nearly throughout but generally failry clean. Around 6 leaves towards the back slightly softened in the fore margin, but it is only a small area affected.

The first printed dictionary, it was a work on the Latin Language which gave extensive grammatical, orthographic, metrical, etymological, and rhetorical explications. It was the first reference volume and apparently the second book printed c1460, after the Bible, which amply demonstrates its importance and was widely circulated. It was the fore-runner of the modern encyclopedia as well. It is also the first work "to achieve complete alphabetization (from the first to the last letter of each word)."

Japanese Title: KYU EI BIJIN GA SHUU HO SEI: PAINTINGS OF BEAUTIFUL CHINESE WOMEN DONE AFTER MASTER QIU YING.       A LOVELY AND VERY LONG HAND-PAINTED 19TH CENTURY HAND SCROLL [Japan 19th century]. Hand scroll, silk brocade outer cloth, ribbon tie, ivory clip, painted on fine hand-made paper some with crushed mica powder, giving a sparkling look, very long 27.5 x 6m.48 cm. length,very good, clean,22 color paintings. A most charming and lovely Nanga school painted long scroll. The work shows the more tropical looking foliage of South China. The work is entirely devoted to Chinese beautiful women of the Ming dynasty. This work was done after the painted hand-scroll work done by the most celebrated Qiu Ying [1495-1522]. It contains some twenty-two scenes depicting the most celebrated beauties of Chinese history. Each is delicately painted in pastels, with a steady and fine hand in very thin outline. The surrounding scenery is beautifully executed in much detail, as are the architectural accommodations. Each painting is preceded by the name of the lady, and a brief comment about her charms and celebrity. Each is clad the most stunning and beautiful garments, elaborate coiffeur, some hold various kinds of fans, One lady plays a long-thin flute while serenading a Phoenix. Another sits while playing her lute while a white crane observes, others draw and paint scrolls or screens, some write in books, Lovely altars are depicted with small Buddhist statues, Chinese books and other scholar's desk articles. One shows a most pious lady saying her prayers while on a lovely mat with a censor adjacent. * BIBLIOGRAPHY: Andrew Pekarik: THE THIRTY-SIX IMMORTAL WOMEN POETS. Our item seems to be related to this, in that it reflects a common theme and bond. While the Japanese emulated much of Chinese culture and traditions, this book offers a good example of what and how the Japanese thought of such works as the Qiu Ying scroll. * Color scans can be sent by email.Images displayed may not be the actual copy in stock for sale at any given time; if you want to see the exact image of the book or edition in stock, please request this by email and an image will be returned to you by attachment. !!

The crater Apianus on the Moon is named in his honour. He was born as Peter Bienewitz or Bennewitz in Leisnig in Saxony; his father was a shoemaker. The family was relatively well off, belonging to the middle class citizenry of Leisnig. Apianus was educated at the Latin school in Rochlitz. From 1516 to 1519 he studied at the University of Leipzig; during this time, he Latinized his name to Apianus ( lat. apis means "bee"; "Biene" is the German word for bee ). In 1519, Apianus moved to Vienna and continued his studies at the University of Vienna, which was considered one of the leading universities in...       [Bookseller: Alibris]  70.   Check availability:     Alibris   Link/Print   CLARAVALLENSIS, BERNARDUS Opusculea       Venice, 1495.

A partire dal Cinquecento circolo' spesso legata ad un'altra opera grammaticale del Gaza il "Liber de mensibus Atticis" scritto a Roma nel 1470. Teodoro Gaza, o Gazis (ca. 1400-1475), fu dotto greco del basso impero; abbandono' Tessalonica, sua patria, nel 1429, per venire in Italia ove insegno' la lingua greca e fondo' l'Accademia di Ferrara; chiamato a Roma da Niccolo' V, condusse per ordine di lui varie traduzioni dal greco in latino; mori' in Abruzzo nel 1478. Al periodo ferrarese risale probabilmente la compilazione della "Grammatica" "sicuramente una delle migliori sistematizzazioni in lingua greca, che ebbe una notevole circolazione manoscritta" (DBIt, LII, p. 739). L'edizione fu patrocinata dalla societa' Torentino-Barbarigo-Manuzio ma rientra chiaramente nelle scelte scolastico-commerciali di Aldo che nella prefazione sottolinea l'impegno profuso per la correttezza testuale: "Illud non te fugiat: exemplaria habuisse me quam plurima, curasseque ut quam emendatissime imprimentur�" e parallelamente la sua continua ricerca di testi sperduti da stampare: "Sperabam enim cum caetereos Apollonii libros tum hos quoque de constructione habiturum nos aliquando correctiores�". Importante incunabolo greco, il quinto libro impresso da Aldo. Esemplare marginoso, abilmente rinfrescato, foglio di titolo rimarginato lungo il lato inferiore e l'angolo superiore, margine interno del primo e ultimo fascicolo con rinforzi nella parte centrale della cucitura; lievi tracce di umido nel margine interno lungo buona parte dell'esempl.
