MIDDLETON, Richard of.
In quartus sententiarum resolute questiones [with] Questiones quodlibetales
      Venice, Lazarus Soardus; 5 September, 10 July 1509. 2 works in one. Folio. ff [xii] 237; 43 [-blankf6]. Double column, Gothic letter in two sizes, plain and foliated woodcut initials, extensive printed sidenotes, publisher's white on black device on verso of last. T-p a bit foxed, infrequent contemp. manuscript notes, underlinings, small hole affecting a very few letters to A2, faint dampstain towards outer margins in a few quires. A very good, clean, well-margined copy in contemporary vellum, slightly later vellum spine superimposed. Early paper library label and title to spine, edges speckled red and black. Rare edition by Benzonus of Middleton's commentary on the fourth book of Peter Lombard's great 'Sentences,' accompanied by 'Quodlibeta,' related disputations. It was one of very few works by an Englishman of sufficient reputation to be internationally printed in the incunable and post-incunable periods. The fourth book covers 'the sacraments in general, the seven sacraments in particular, and the four last things, death, judgment, hell, and heaven.' (Catholic Encyclopaedia). The Quodlibeta were answers to scholarly questions posed by pupils or by interested parties. They address many and varied topics, religious and scientific, including one of the earliest discussions of hypnotism, auto-suggestion and telepathy. The possibility of resurrection, the nature of the human intellect, whether Peter sinned when he denied Christ, the meaning of 'good luck', if one has sinned having done something through direst necessity, and the morality of the marriage of two persons of wildly differing years i.a. are discussed. The standard theological textbook of the medieval university, the Sentences ia a compilation of extracts from the Bible, religious Fathers (especially Augustine), and other sources of authority, and covers the whole body of theological doctrine to form the basis for virtually the entire field of Christian theology and its scholastic interpretation. It represented the first effort to bring together commentaries on the full range of theological issues on a systematic basis, and present different views on complex theological points. A commentary on the Sentences was required of every aspiring master of theology, making it the predominant non-Biblical work most commented on up to the 16th C and Middleton's was regarded as a leader in the field. Richard of Middleton (c. 1249 - 1302) was a Franciscan friar, theologian and philosopher. His works pioneer the move away from a strict Augustinian theology to a more scholastic one. Known as 'doctor solidus et fundatissimus,' he was a friend of Duns Scotus, who also composed a commentary on the Sentences. Perhaps the most famous argument Middleton advances in this commentary (first published in 1489) is his fierce opposition to the ordination of women. As well as the more conventional objections to the weak and emotional character and submissive nature of women rendering them wholly unfit for office, he also advances the compelling argument that women cannot be ordained, as the tonsure which is required for minor orders would not be suitably becoming to females. This edition, published as part of a 4 volume series between 1507 and 1509, is significantly expanded from the Gregorii editions of 1489 and 1499, and is the most complete Mediavilla commentary on the final, and arguably most theologically significant, section of the Sentences. BM STC It. p554. Shaaber R36 (11 places). Adams M1422 & M1425 L884

Bray, Gerald
Records of Convocation [Canterbury 1509-1852]
      Boydell & Brewer Ltd - Largely unpublished hitherto, the materials contained in The Records of Convocation have been drawn from a variety of sources. They make available, for the first time, the fullest possible account of the convocations which stood a t the very heart of the nation's life throughout most of the medieval and early modern period. The Records of Convocation contain the minutes of clergy synods, the legislation passed by them tax assessments imposed by the king on the clergy, and accounts of the great debates about religious reformation and reform. The core of this edition relates to the convocations of the Church of England, beginning in 1313. Six volumes are devoted to the prov ince of Canterbury in the later period (plus Introductory and Index volumes). They contain all the records surviving from 1509 until the revival of convocation by the Victorians after over a century's suspension in 1852. Scholars will find the materials for the period up to1666 of particular interest, as the original records were burnt in the great fire of London and have been reconstructed from copies and allusions found elsewhere. Condition: Brand new (not pre-owned). Binding: Unsewn hardback Year first printed: 2006. ISBN: 9781843831853 [Attributes: Hard Cover]

Brasenose: the Biography of an Oxford College
      Oxford University Press, USA. New Please note that deliveries to addresses in the UK and Europe will be in 4-14 business days. Other countries should refer to Alibris standard times. Brasenose College was founded in 1509 by a Bishop (William Smith) and a lawyer (Richard Sutton). Both came from the North West of England, and the college has always been proud of its links with Lancashire and Cheshire. But over the centuries Brasenose or 'B.N.C. ' as it is usually known has expanded its reputation worldwide. This is the first full-scale history of Brasenose, timed to coincide with its Quincentenary. The setting is broad: it relates the college to the university, and the university to the wider world of politics. Using archives, letters and diaries, it aims torecreate something of the variety and texture of academic life over a period of five centuries: the learning, the conversation, the sport; the intellectual milieu and financial context; the architecture inside and out; the food and drink, the quirks of personality, the little dramas, and absurditiesthat make up the small change of corporate living.

Alice Hunt's study examines the five royal coronations that took place between 1509 and 1559, and considers how they were perceived and described by contemporary observers such as courtiers and playwrights. Hunt challenges the popular position that has sought to conflate royal ceremony with political propaganda, and argues for a deeper understanding of its complexity. At the heart of the study is an investigation into the vexed issues of legitimisation and correct forms of representation, and Hunt identifies the emergence of an important and fruitful exchange between ceremony and drama. This will have important implications for our understanding both of the period's theatre and of the Protestant Reformation's effects as a whole, and will be of great interest to scholars and students of late medieval and Renaissance literature.

Dem Magistrat von Bern gewidmete Schrift über den sog. "Jetzerhandel" und den Streit zwischen Dominikanern und Franziskanern um die Lehre der unbefleckten Empfängnis Mariä. 1507 trat der Schneidergeselle Johann Jetzer aus Zurzach als Novize ins Predigerkloster in Bern ein und simulierte Erscheinungen. Nach seiner Entlarvung beschuldigte er die Mönche, ihn mit Hilfe des Teufels mißbraucht zu haben. Im anschließenden Ketzerprozeß wurden die beschuldigten Mönche verhaftet und nach Folterung zum Tod auf dem Scheiterhaufen verurteilt. Murner, von den Franziskanern als Prozeßbeobachter entsandt, verfolgte die Endphase des Prozesses und war auch am 31. Mai 1509 bei der Hinrichtung der vier Verurteilten zugegen. Erst im 19. Jahrhundert stellte sich heraus, daß die Mönche Opfer eines Justizmordes geworden waren (vgl. Steck, Der Berner Ketzerprozeß. Bern, 1902). - Gutes, sauberes Exemplar komplett mit dem letzten w.

De Dictis Factisque Memorabilibus collectanea: a Camillo Gilino latina facta.
      (A la fin:) Milan, Giacomo Ferrari, 22 Juin 1509. in-folio. 326ff. Parchemin ancien. Edition Originale. Gianbattista Fregoso (1453-1504), d'une illustre famille italienne, fut doge de Genes en 1473. C'etait un fin lettre qui a laisse diverses Å“uvres litteraires. Cet ouvrage est une sorte d'encyclopedie ou Fregoso recense des faits, des inventions et des evenements remarquables (invention de l'imprimerie, decouverte de l'Amerique par Colomb, etc.). Ce caractere encyclopedique est sans doute ce qui lui avait valu d'etre utilise dans l'enseignement a Milan au debut du XVI siecle: "a due opere elaborate in ambienti laici, il "Liber de doctrina dicendi et tacendi' di Albertano da Brescia e il 'De dictis factisque memorabilibus' di Battista Fregoso, sembrano piu specificamente rivolti a quei confratelli di S. Corona che rientravono fra i nuovi operatori culturali laici dell'epoca, portatori di un sapere legato indissolubilimente con la vita civile, maturato nel campo dell'urbanistica, delle pretiche amministrative, dei consigli giuridici, della sanita pubblica, delle techniche economiche" (Marina Gazzini, "Scuola, libri et cultura nelle confraternita milanesi fra tardo medioevo e prima eta moderna" in : Scrineum 3).

MIDDLETON, Richard of.
In quartus sententiarum resolute questiones [with] Questiones quodlibetales
      - Venice, Lazarus Soardus; 5 September, 10 July 1509. 2 works in one. Folio. ff [xii] 237; 43 [-blank f6]. Double column, Gothic letter in two sizes, plain and foliated woodcut initials, extensive printed sidenotes, publisher's white on black device on verso of last. T-p a bit foxed, infrequent contemp. manuscript notes, underlinings, small hole affecting a very few letters to A2, faint dampstain towards outer margins in a few quires. A very good, clean, well-margined copy in contemporary vellum, slightly later vellum spine superimposed. Early paper library label and title to spine, edges speckled red and black. Rare edition by Benzonus of Middleton's commentary on the fourth book of Peter Lombard's great 'Sentences,' accompanied by 'Quodlibeta,' related disputations. It was one of very few works by an Englishman of sufficient reputation to be internationally printed in the incunable and post-incunable periods. The fourth book covers 'the sacraments in general, the seven sacraments in particular, and the four last things, death, judgment, hell, and heaven.' (Catholic Encyclopaedia). The Quodlibeta were answers to scholarly questions posed by pupils or by interested parties. They address many and varied topics, religious and scientific, including one of the earliest discussions of hypnotism, auto-suggestion and telepathy. The possibility of resurrection, the nature of the human intellect, whether Peter sinned when he denied Christ, the meaning of 'good luck', if one has sinned having done something through direst necessity, and the morality of the marriage of two persons of wildly differing years i.a. are discussed. The standard theological textbook of the medieval university, the Sentences ia a compilation of extracts from the Bible, religious Fathers (especially Augustine), and other sources of authority, and covers the whole body of theological doctrine to form the basis for virtually the entire field of Christian theology and its scholastic interpretation. It represented the first effort to bring together commentaries on the full range of theological issues on a systematic basis, and present different views on complex theological points. A commentary on the Sentences was required of every aspiring master of theology, making it the predominant non-Biblical work most commented on up to the 16th C and Middleton's was regarded as a leader in the field. Richard of Middleton (c. 1249 - 1302) was a Franciscan friar, theologian and philosopher. His works pioneer the move away from a strict Augustinian theology to a more scholastic one. Known as 'doctor solidus et fundatissimus,' he was a friend of Duns Scotus, who also composed a commentary on the Sentences. Perhaps the most famous argument Middleton advances in this commentary (first published in 1489) is his fierce opposition to the ordination of women. As well as the more conventional objections to the weak and emotional character and submissive nature of women rendering them wholly unfit for office, he also advances the compelling argument that women cannot be ordained, as the tonsure which is required for minor orders would not be suitably becoming to females. This edition, published as part of a 4 volume series between 1507 and 1509, is significantly expanded from the Gregorii editions of 1489 and 1499, and is the most complete Mediavilla commentary on the final, and arguably most theologically significant, section of the Sentences.

In Passepartout.Erklärung über die Wertbestimmung eines der Madonna Margherita, Witwe des Lodovico Martelli, gehörenden Hauses, das "rione di ponte dalla chiesa de fiorentini" liegt. Vermutlich handelt es sich hierbei um die Kirche S. Giovanni dei Fiorentini in Rom. Da die beiden Schätzer Pietro Fravisano und Battista de Calvi keinen übereinstimmenden Schätzpreis des Hauses ermitteln konnten, wurde Antonio da Sangallo d. Ä. mit der Schätzung beauftragt. Er schätzte den Wert auf 377 scudi u. 42 barochi. - Das Doppelblatt mit einigen leichten Stockfleckchen und mit dem leeren Bl. 2 auf Karton montiert. - Der Architekt und Bildhauer Antonio da Sangallo d. Ä. schuf mit der Kirche S. Maria di Monserrato in Rom einen "neuen, fast klassizistischen Typus der Saalkirche" (Thieme/B. XXIX, 403). In seiner Heimatstadt Florenz zeichnet er auch für zahlreiche Profanbauten verantwortlich, gemeinsam mit seinem Neffen Francesco (gen. Margotta) zeichnete er bei der Belagerung von 1529/30 für die innere Befestigungsanlage der Stadt verantwortlich. - Schriftstücke von der Hand Sangallos sind von größter Seltenheit, mit Ausnahme des vorliegenden, zuletzt 1956 in Genf verauktionierten Dokuments, keine Nachweise auf dt. oder internationalen Auktionen.

      - [Basel, Petri oder Lamparter, um 1509].20 unnum. SS. Mit großem Titelholzschnitt. Geheftet. 4to.Einzige Ausgabe. Die Abhandlung geht zurück auf einen Auftrag des Bischofs von Lausanne, der zu klären versuchte, ob die zur Vortäuschung des Blutes für Jetzer rotgefärbte Hostie ihre heiligen Eigenschaften behalte - eine Frage, die der Kirchenrechtler Jacques de Marcepalle (Mareschal) hier verneint. - 1507 war der Schneidergeselle Johann Jetzer aus Zurzach als Novize ins Predigerkloster in Bern eingetreten und hatte Erscheinungen simuliert. Nach seiner Entlarvung beschuldigte er die Mönche, ihn mit Hilfe des Teufels mißbraucht zu haben. Im anschließenden Ketzerprozeß wurden die beschuldigten Mönche verhaftet und nach Folterung zum Tod auf dem Scheiterhaufen verurteilt. Erst im 19. Jahrhundert stellte sich heraus, daß die Mönche Opfer eines Justizmordes geworden waren (vgl. Steck, Der Berner Ketzerprozeß. Bern, 1902) noch die ADB stellt Jetzer als Opfer betrügerischer Dominikaner dar. - Der Titelholzschnitt zeigt die vier Mönche am Fußende der Lagerstatt des an seinen Stigmata leidenden Jetzers im Hintergrund eine Pieta unter einem Baldachin. "Nun könnte der Holzschnitt aber gar nicht besser passen in das Werk Urs Grafs, zwischen die großen Holzschnitte für die sog. Ringmann-Passion von ca. 1506 und das Leben Jesu von 1508 in Strassburg und die Baseler Karthäuser von 1510 [...] Obwohl in der Urs Graf-Literatur bisher unbemerkt, [...] dürfte der Reisser des Holzschnittes damit feststehen, ebenso das Datum des Drucks, mindestens der Druckplanung" (Hieronymus 47). - Durchgehend schwach gebräunt wenige Bll. etwas wasserrandig.

CONSTANTINE VII, porphyrogenitus, emperor of the east.
De administrando imperio, ad Romanum f. Liber nunquam antehac editus. Ioannes Meursius primus vulgavit, Latinam interpretationem, ac notas adjecit.
      First edition, edited by Johannes van Meurs (Meursius), who gave the work its title, De administrando imperio, by which it has since been generally known. Written in the mid tenth century by the Byzantine emperor, Constantine VII, porphyrogenitus, it is preserved in one eleventh century manuscript, from which stem three sixteenth-century copies (one of which is not of the complete text). Meurs based his text on the copy made by Antony Eparchus in 1509, which had passed to the Bibliotheca Palatina at Heidelberg (and to the Vatican in 1623).De administrando imperio is a manual of statecraft addressed to the emperor’s son, Romanus. One ‘of the most important historical documents surviving from mediaeval Byzantium’, it includes a ‘comprehensive historical and geographical survey of most of the nations surrounding the empire, starting with the Saracens to the south-east, fetching a compass round the Mediterranean and Black Seas, and ending with the Armenian states on the eastern frontier . . . . The first-hand information comes mainly from Italy, from the Balkans and Steppes, and from Armenia. In Armenia the advance of the Roman arms and the retreat of the Saracens involved a complicated Roman diplomacy in the numerous and jealous principalities beyond the eastern frontier. In a divided and enfeebled Italy, during the interim between the empires of Charlemagne and Otto, Byzantium was for the last time in its history a strong military and diplomatic influence. The only hint of anxiety comes from the north, where the watchful eyes of the foreign ministry observed intently the even shifting kaleidoscope of the political scene, as Magyar and Slav, Russian and Pecheneg, Chazar and Alan made their complicated moves between the Caucasus and the Carpathians. There is no doubt that the De administrando imperio was a secret and confidential document. It tells too much about the principle of imperial foreign policy and diplomacy . . . to be safe for publication . . . . This confidential character of the book, confirmed, if confirmation be required, by its manuscript history and by the circumstances that later writers betray no knowledge of it, enhances its value. It is no partial document of propaganda, fudged up to impress domestic or foreign circles. Much of it is an honest appreciation of the contemporary political situation, compiled from information upon which the government based its day-to-day foreign policy. And, as such, it is unique’ (Moravcsik & Jenkins, eds, De administrando imperio pp. 11–14).‘The book is a sometimes brilliant treatise on the rituals of Byzantine statecraft, a statement of practical wisdom that would have warmed the heart of an Aristotle or a Cicero – and a discussion of the in and outs of politics, war, and diplomacy that would have impressed Thucydides . . . . Its maxims remained at the heart of Byzantine diplomacy, foreign policy, and conception of its being and purpose well into the final phases of the decline of the empire. It may therefore stand as the most mature work of political thought produced by the empire and it is significant that it is, primarily, a work on “international” politics’ (Brown, International relations in political thought pp. 99–100).Simoni C157; Willems 65. Leiden, Jan Bouwensz for Louis Elzevier, 1611.

This exceptionally rare pamphlet appears to be a work by Johannes Nider. Jean Petit issued several editions of Nider's 'Confessionale seu manuale confessorum' about the same time with a tract with this same title [see: Moreau II,332:144.] and we assume it is the same tract. The Nider entry on Wikpedia cites this edition as his work but without citation. The Bibliotheque Nationale states that they own a copy but they decline to ascribe an author. The GW lists Nider as the author in their web based citatio which is for the BN copy.#11;"John Nider, Theologian, b. 1380 in Swabia; d. 13 August, 1438, at Colmar. He entered the Order of Preachers at Colmar and after profession was sent to Vienna for his philosophical studies, which he finished at Cologne where he was ordained. He gained a wide reputation in Germany as a preacher and was active at the Council of Constance. After making a study of the convents of his order of strict observance in Italy he returned to the University of Vienna where in 1425 he began teaching as Master of Theology. Elected prior of the Dominican convent at Nuremberg in 1427, he successively served as socius to his master general and vicar of the reformed convents of the German province. In this capacity he maintained his early reputation of reformer and in 1431 he was chosen prior of the convent of strict observance at Basle. He became identified with the Council of Basle as theologian and legate, making several embassies to the Hussites at the command of Cardinal Julian. Sent as legate of the Council to the Bohemians he succeeded in pacifying them. He journeyed to Ratisbon (1434) to effect a further reconciliation with the Bohemians and then proceeded to Vienna to continue his work of reforming the convents there. During the discussion that followed the dissolution of the Council of Basle by Eugene IV, he joined the party in favour of continuing the Council in Germany, abandoning them, however, when the pope remained firm in his decision. He resumed his theological lectures at Vienna in 1436 and was twice elected dean of the university before his death. As reformer he was foremost in Germany and welcomed as such both by his own order and by the Fathers of the Council of Basle. As a theologian his adherence to the principles of St. Thomas and his practical methods made him distinguished among his contemporaries." [Catholic Ency.] GW M4739610 (ref. BN V2129).

BRANT, Sebastian (1458-1520)
Stultifera navis....... The Ship of Fooles, wherin is shewed the folly of all States, with divers other workes adjoyned unto the same... Translated out of Latin into Englishe by Alexander Barclay, Priest.
      Second Edition in English Small folio, ¦, ¦¦, A-Z, Aa-Uu6, Xx4, A-G, A-D6, 340 leaves, Latin text in roman letter, English text in black letter, illustrated with 116 woodcuts in the text, title-page and last leaf lightly soiled, v. small hole in Fol.1 repaired not affecting text, blank corner of Fol.57 renewed, 19c. brown morocco decorated in blind and gilt by Riviere, edges rough gilt over earlier marbling. A very fine clean copy. The Latin text is Jacob Locher's version of Sebastian Brant's celebrated Narrenschiff, and is merely the starting point for the English translator. Barclay adds considerably to the work, taking every opportunity to satirize the particular follies of English people, especially the clergy. Added at the end are other works by Barclay ("The Mirrour of good Maners" and "Certayne Eglogues") which did not appear in the first edition (Pynson, 1509). "The English Ship of Fools exercised an important direct influence upon our literature, pre-eminently by helping to bury medi¾val allegory in the grave which had long yawned before it, and to direct English authorship into the drama, essay and novel of character". - Prof. A.W.Ward

CONSTANTINE VII, porphyrogenitus, emperor of the east.
Leiden, Jan Bouwensz for Louis Elzevier, 1611.
      First edition, edited by Johannes van Meurs (Meursius), who gave the work its title, De administrando imperio, by which it has since been generally known. Written in the mid tenth century by the Byzantine emperor, Constantine VII, porphyrogenitus, it is preserved in one eleventh century manuscript, from which stem three sixteenth-century copies (one of which is not of the complete text). Meurs based his text on the copy made by Antony Eparchus in 1509, which had passed to the Bibliotheca Palatina at Heidelberg (and to the Vatican in 1623).De administrando imperio is a manual of statecraft addressed to the emperor’s son, Romanus. One ‘of the most important historical documents surviving from mediaeval Byzantium’, it includes a ‘comprehensive historical and geographical survey of most of the nations surrounding the empire, starting with the Saracens to the south-east, fetching a compass round the Mediterranean and Black Seas, and ending with the Armenian states on the eastern frontier . . . . The first-hand information comes mainly from Italy, from the Balkans and Steppes, and from Armenia. In Armenia the advance of the Roman arms and the retreat of the Saracens involved a complicated Roman diplomacy in the numerous and jealous principalities beyond the eastern frontier. In a divided and enfeebled Italy, during the interim between the empires of Charlemagne and Otto, Byzantium was for the last time in its history a strong military and diplomatic influence. The only hint of anxiety comes from the north, where the watchful eyes of the foreign ministry observed intently the even shifting kaleidoscope of the political scene, as Magyar and Slav, Russian and Pecheneg, Chazar and Alan made their complicated moves between the Caucasus and the Carpathians. There is no doubt that the De administrando imperio was a secret and confidential document. It tells too much about the principle of imperial foreign policy and diplomacy . . . to be safe for publication . . . . This confidential character of the book, confirmed, if confirmation be required, by its manuscript history and by the circumstances that later writers betray no knowledge of it, enhances its value. It is no partial document of propaganda, fudged up to impress domestic or foreign circles. Much of it is an honest appreciation of the contemporary political situation, compiled from information upon which the government based its day-to-day foreign policy. And, as such, it is unique’ (Moravcsik & Jenkins, eds, De administrando imperio pp. 11–14).‘The book is a sometimes brilliant treatise on the rituals of Byzantine statecraft, a statement of practical wisdom that would have warmed the heart of an Aristotle or a Cicero – and a discussion of the in and outs of politics, war, and diplomacy that would have impressed Thucydides . . . . Its maxims remained at the heart of Byzantine diplomacy, foreign policy, and conception of its being and purpose well into the final phases of the decline of the empire. It may therefore stand as the most mature work of political thought produced by the empire and it is significant that it is, primarily, a work on “international” politics’ (Brown, International relations in political thought pp. 99–100).Simoni C157; Willems 65.

Sangallo the Elder, Antonio da, architect (1455-1535).
Autograph document signed.
      N. p., 5. II. 1509. - Folio. 1 p. on double leaf. In passe-partout. Valuation of a house "rione di ponte dalla chiesa de fiorentini", owned by Madonna Margherita, widow of the late Lodovico Martelli. The church mentioned is probably S. Giovanni dei Fiorentini in Rome. As the two appraisers, Pietro Fravisano and Battista de Calvi, were unable to agree upon an estimate, Antonio da Sangallo was asked for an appraisal. He valued the house at 377 scudi and 42 barochi. - The architect and sculptor Antonio da Sangallo the Elder built the Roman church of S. Maria di Monserrato, a new and almost neo-classical type of hall church. He also created numerous secular buildings in his native Florence; with his nephew Francesco (known as "Margotta"), he erected the inner fortifications during the siege of 1529/30. - Insignificant foxing; blank fol. 2 mounted on cardboard. Of the utmost rarity: last sold at Geneva in 1956; no other records in German or international auctions.

Brasenose: the Biography of an Oxford College
      OUP Oxford. New in new dust jacket. Brasenose College was founded in 1509 by a Bishop (William Smith) and a lawyer (Richard Sutton). Both came from the North West of England, and the college has always been proud of its links with Lancashire and Cheshire. But over the centuries Brasenose or 'B.N.C. ' as it is usually known has expanded its reputation worldwide. This is the first full-scale history of Brasenose, timed to coincide with its Quincentenary. The setting is broad: it relates the college to the university, and the university to the wider world of politics. Using archives, letters and diaries, it aims to recreate something of the variety and texture of academic life over a period of five centuries: the learning, the...

Albuquerque: Caesar of the East (Hispanic Classics Series)
      Aris & Phillips. New 0856684872 Of all the remarkable people who first opened up the rest of the world to the Europeans Columbus, Magellan, Vasco da Gama, Pizarro and Cortes Afonso de Albuquerque, governor of Portuguese India from 1509 to 1515, was one of the most astonishing. He was a commander of bold strategic conceptions, a far-sighted administrator and in addition a talented writer, whose dispatches to King Manuel contain a wealth of spontaneous narrative, description and pungent comment. Caesar of the East is a specially edited anthology, based on the original Portuguese texts, of selections from these dispatches, or Cartas, and from the Comentários (Commentaries) written by Albuquerque's son, also called Afonso, about his father's career, with new English translations of both. In the introduction Dr Villiers evaluates the part that Albuquerque played in the foundation of the Portuguese empire in Asia, and Dr Earle provides a literary analysis of the contrasting styles of the Cartas and the Comentários, where the father's informality and spontaneity contrast fascinatingly with his son's carefully contrived and highly literary narrative. Historical and geographical notes help the reader to understand the text. 320p, 19 illus (Aris & Phillips 1990). 9780856684876. Hardback.

Hayward, Maria
Dress at the Court of King Henry VIII: The Wardrobe Book of the Wardrobe of the Robes Prepared By James Wrosley In December 1516, edited from Harley MS ... Prepared On 1
      Maney Publishing. Hardcover. 1904350704 Henry VIII used his wardrobe, and that of his family and household, as a way of expressing his wealth and magnificence. This book encompasses the first detailed study of male and female dress worn at the court of Henry VIII (1509-47) and covers the dress of the king and his immediate family, the royal household and the broader court circle. Henry VIII's wardrobe is set in context by a study of Henry VII's clothes, court and household. As none of Henry VIII's clothes survive, evidence is drawn primarily from the great wardrobe accounts, wardrobe warrants, and inventories, and is interpreted using evidence from narrative sources, paintings, drawings and a small selection of contemporary garments, mainly from European collections. Key areas for consideration include the king's personal wardrobe, how Henry VIII's queens used their clothes to define their status, the textiles provided for the pattern of royal coronations, marriages and funerals and the role of the great wardrobe, wardrobe of the robes and laundry. In addition there is information on the cut and construction of garments, materials and colours, dress given as gifts, the function of livery and the hierarchy of dress within the royal household, and the network of craftsmen working for the court. The text is accompanied by full transcripts of James Worsley's wardrobe books of 1516 and 1521 which provide a brief glimpse of the king's clothes. 476p, ca 172 b/w and 25 color illus.

Albuquerque: Caesar of the East
      Aris & Phillips. Hardcover. 0856684872 Of all the remarkable people who first opened up the rest of the world to the Europeans Columbus, Magellan, Vasco da Gama, Pizarro and Cortes Afonso de Albuquerque, governor of Portuguese India from 1509 to 1515, was one of the most astonishing. He was a commander of bold strategic conceptions, a far-sighted administrator and in addition a talented writer, whose dispatches to King Manuel contain a wealth of spontaneous narrative, description and pungent comment. Caesar of the East is a specially edited anthology, based on the original Portuguese texts, of selections from these dispatches, or Cartas, and from the Comentários (Commentaries) written by Albuquerque's son, also called Afonso, about his father's career, with new English translations of both. In the introduction Dr Villiers evaluates the part that Albuquerque played in the foundation of the Portuguese empire in Asia, and Dr Earle provides a literary analysis of the contrasting styles of the Cartas and the Comentários, where the father's informality and spontaneity contrast fascinatingly with his son's carefully contrived and highly literary narrative. Historical and geographical notes help the reader to understand the text. 320p, 19 illus (Aris & Phillips 1990). 9780856684876. Hardback . New. 1990-01-01.

Probus, M. Valerius
De interpretandis romanoru(m) litteris opusculum.
      Iacobus Mazochius, Romae 1509 - 20 cc.nn. Per i più antichi P. s'interessò particolarmente di lingua, sulla quale lasciò agli eruditi posteriori una maniera di osservazioni preziose; ma, sempre per essi, dovettero altresi imporglisi questioni di critica testuale, di cui fu maestro ai Romani. Edizioni vere e proprie di lui ci sono esplicitamente attestate per Lucrezio, Virgilio e Orazio; certa si può dire anche l'edizione di Terenzio e di Persio; congetture furono fatte altresi per Plauto e Sallustio. In questa attività, che gli è caratteristica, P. si valse dei segni critici e dei metodi della filologia alessandrina. La sua autorità fu tale, che gli furono dipoi attribuite varie opere pervenute fino anoi, le quali o non sono apertamente di lui o con lui hanno rapporti assai discutibili. Scuola vera e propria non ne tenne; raccolse intorno a sé amici e seguaci, a conversar con loro scientificamente. - Con leggere fioriture. [Attributes: Soft Cover]

Sangallo the Elder, Antonio da, architect (1455-1535).
Autograph document signed.
      N. p., 5. II. 1509. - Folio. 1 p. on double leaf. In passe-partout. Valuation of a house "rione di ponte dalla chiesa de fiorentini", owned by Madonna Margherita, widow of the late Lodovico Martelli. The church mentioned is probably S. Giovanni dei Fiorentini in Rome. As the two appraisers, Pietro Fravisano and Battista de Calvi, were unable to agree upon an estimate, Antonio da Sangallo was asked for an appraisal. He valued the house at 377 scudi and 42 barochi. - The architect and sculptor Antonio da Sangallo the Elder built the Roman church of S. Maria di Monserrato, a new and almost neo-classical type of hall church. He also created numerous secular buildings in his native Florence; with his nephew Francesco (known as "Margotta"), he erected the inner fortifications during the siege of 1529/30. - Insignificant foxing; blank fol. 2 mounted on cardboard. Of the utmost rarity: last sold at Geneva in 1956; no other records in German or international auctions.

Maria Hayward
Dress at the Court of King Henry VIII
      David Brown. New Henry VIII used his wardrobe, and that of his family and household, as a way of expressing his wealth and magnificence. This book encompasses the first detailed study of male and female dress worn at the court of Henry VIII (1509-47) and covers the dress of the king and his immediate family, the royal household and the broader court circle. As none of Henry VIII's clothes survive, evidence is drawn primarily from the great wardrobe accounts, wardrobe warrants, and inventories, and is interpreted using evidence from narrative sources, paintings, drawings and a small selection of contemporary garments, mainly from European collections. Key areas for consideration include the king's personal wardrobe, how Henry VIII's queens used their clothes to define their status, the textiles provided for the pattern of royal coronations, marriages and funerals and the role of the great wardrobe. In addition there is information on the cut and construction of garments, materials and colors, dress given as gifts, the function of livery and the hierarchy of dress within the royal household.

Halbleinen (Half-linen) Im Mittelalter bestimmten zwei Lesearten der Digesten die europäische Juristenwelt: die littera vulgata und die littera Florentina.

Für den Digestentext der Bologneser Rechtsschule prägten die Juristen den bis heute üblichen Namen littera vulgata oder littera Bononiensis. Schon Schüler des Irnerius haben beide Lesearten miteinander verglichen und Textvarianten beigefügt. Anfang des 13. Jahrhunderts war die littera vulgata fixiert, das Interesse an Varianten erloschen. Die littera vulgata weicht von der heute maßgeblichen, meist der littera Florentina folgenden Rezension Mommsens erheblich ab. Mommsen hat die codices vulgati grundsätzlich nicht verglichen. Die littera vulgata fand auch Eingang in die ersten gedruckten Ausgaben des corpus iuris civilis. Insoweit spiegelt die Pariser Ausgabe die Digestenform, wie sie die mittelalterlichen Juristen benutzt haben. Der Druck ist aufwendig in der rubrifizierten Form übernommen, durchgehend im prächtigen Rot-Schwarz-Druck, eine auch bibliophile Kostbarkeit. An wesentlichen und wichtigen Ausgaben des Corpus iuris civilis, insbesondere der Digesten weist das Verlagsprogramm Ius Commune folgende Ausgaben auf: Die Digestenausgabe von Gregor Haloander, Nürnberg 1529 (vico-6); die von Andreas Alciat betreute Basel 1541 (Vico-16); die Gothofredus-Ausgabe mit den Noten (Publikation ist für das Jahr 2006 vorgesehen) und schließlich die Gebauer-Spangenberg-Ausgabe von 1776. In the Middle Ages two readings of the Digest dominated European jurist circles: the littera vulgata and the littera Florentina.

The littera vulgata differs considerably from now the definitive edition by Mommsens that mostly follows the littera Florentina. Mommsen did not compare the codices vulgati at all. The littera vulgata also found its way into the first printed editions of the corpus iuris civilis. In that sense, the Paris edition reflects the digest form as used by mediaeval jurists.

FREGOSO (Gianbattista).
De Dictis Factisque Memorabilibus collectanea: a Camillo Gilino latina facta.

Gianbattista Fregoso (1453-1504), d'une illustre famille italienne, fut doge de Gênes en 1473. C'était un fin lettré qui a laissé diverses ?uvres littéraires. Cet ouvrage est une sorte d'encyclopédie où Fregoso recense des faits, des inventions et des événements remarquables (invention de l'imprimerie, découverte de l'Amérique par Colomb, etc.). Ce caractère encyclopédique est sans doute ce qui lui avait valu d'être utilisé dans l'enseignement à Milan au début du XVI siècle: " due opere elaborate in ambienti laici, il "Liber de doctrina dicendi et tacendi' di Albertano da Brescia e il 'De dictis factisque memorabilibus' di Battista Fregoso, sembrano piu specificamente rivolti a quei confratelli di S. Corona che rientravono fra i nuovi operatori culturali laici dell'epoca, portatori di un sapere legato indissolubilimente con la vita civile, maturato nel campo dell'urbanistica, delle pretiche amministrative, dei consigli giuridici, della sanità pubblica, delle techniche economiche" (Marina Gazzini, "Scuola, libri et cultura nelle confraternita milanesi fra tardo medioevo e prima éta moderna" in : Scrineum 3).

Heft enthält aus seiner Feder allein 3 große Arbeiten: Schiefe Augenmuskeln, Doppeltsehen und Bindehautentzündung. In der 2. Abteilung des 1. Bandes erscheint dann der berühmte Aufsatz von Helmholtz über die Akkommodation des Auges. Graefe selbst hat bis zu seinem frühen Tode 16 Bände mit redigiert und dabei ca 2.500 Druckseiten geliefert. Seine Hauptleistung aber, die ihm für alle Zeiten Weltruhm eintrug, ist die Einführung der Iridektomie zur Heilung des Glaukoms (3., 4. u. 8. Bd. des Archives). Albrecht von Graefe hat in den ersten Bänden des Archives sein Lebenswerk niedergelegt. Durch die Aufnahme zahlreicher Arbeiten seiner Schüler kann man die ersten 18 Bände des Archivs auch als das "LEHRBUCH DER GRAEFE-SCHULE" bezeichnen.

Hieronimus de Villa Vitis

Reliure germanique estampée en à froid en veau fauve à motifs de caissons et roulettes en encadrement d'une composition ornementale à base de fleurons et petits fers. Super libros estampé sur le plat supérieur en lettres gothiques " Gandale divino ". Le plat inférieur est orné d'un rectangle séparé par des diagonales empli de fleurons, roulettes extérieures. Quelques manques sur les plats et en coiffe. Impression sur 2 colonnes en gothique de forme, large de marges, annotations anciennes du XVIè au XVIIIè s. Sur le 1er contre-plat a été collé un bifolium, sorte d'almanach imprimé en rouge et noir, encadré de colonnades stylisées, imprimé à Cracovie par Mathiam Sharffenberg. Le contre-plat inférieur et le dernier feuillet blanc ont été utilisés pour dresser un tableau des fêtes mobiles. La dernière partie concerne le calendrier et le calcul des fêtes mobiles, un lecteur l'a continué en traçant une table permettant ces calculs. Un bel exemple de reliure germanique sur ce texte imprimé par l'introducteur de l'imprimerie dans la ville de Hagenau : Heinrich Gran. Son premier livre y fut imprimé le 31 août 1501 ; il cessa son activité, semble-t-il, en 1521. Probablement originaire de Strasbourg, d'où il importa plusieurs polices de caractère, il imprimera pour plusieurs libraires comme Rinmann et Knoblouch. Edition inconnue à Proctor.

      - Venice, Joannes Rubeus and Bernardinus Vercellensis, March 15 1509. 4to (210 x 150 mm), ff. (4), 150, (18, including terminal blank), with 150 woodcuts in the text; title torn with lower margin renewed at an early date, not affecting text, first gathering and final blank strengthened at inner margin, some occasional minor stains and finger soiling, some early annotations, generally a very good copy in eighteenth-century Italian vellum, a little worming to spine. This is the third edition of the 'Herbarius Latinus' printed in Venice, and the fourth printed in Italy. With two exceptions, these are the blocks cut for the 1491 Vicenza edition, which were transferred to Venice and used by Simone Bevilacqua for his 1499 edition; two of the blocks are copies of the originals, with one reversed. The blocks were used again for the 1502 Giunta edition, which the above is a page-for-page reprint of. The preface attributes the work to Arnoldus de Villanova, as does the 1502 edition, which was copying an error in the text of the 1499. Despite the fact that the 'Herbarius' originated in Germany, it 'sold as well in Italy, as it did in Germany, if not better. There its second section may have contributed to its success, for it was concerned with materials of medicine that were commonly available in the shops of apothecaries and spice merchants. The second section has 96 chapters, though many of them are very brief. They deal with the following: laxatives; aromatics, fruits, seed, and plants of garden and orchard; gums and resins; salts; minerals and stones; and a variety of animals and their products, such as goose-grease, cheese, honey, and ivory''(Anderson, An illustrated history of the herbals p. 86). The Italian woodcuts are based on the German'Herbarius' cuts 'but all are newly designed, being finer in execution and the lines more delicate, and for the greater part quite different' (Klebs). Nissen considered them more delicate and Arber 'more ambitious. and, on the whole. more naturalistic' (Herbals p. 192).

CHRYSOLORAS Manuel (ca. 1350-1415)
GUARINO Veronese (ca. 1374-1460). Erotemata cum multis additamentis, et cum commentariis Latinis.
      Ferrara, Giovanni Mazzocchi, 13 marzo 1509, Due parti in un volume in-8 (mm 148x94). 68 carte non numerate, 171 carte numerate, una non numerata. Al frontespizio marca tipografica del Mazzocchi incisa su legno: ‘Corona con in basso le iniziali I.M., in cornice’. Testo in greco e in latino. Legatura di Bozérian le Jeune in marocchino blu; piatti decorati da una cornice dorata a ferri floreali; titolo e decorazioni in oro al dorso, dentelles interne, sguardie in carta marmorizzata, tagli dorati; custodia in marocchino blu con titolo in oro al dorso. Esemplare in buono stato di conservazione, réglé in rosso; le prime carte un po’ brunite, lievi fioriture; cerniere e angoli della legatura usurati. Al recto del foglio di guardia anteriore antica nota a lapis dalla quale si evince che si tratta della copia ‘Masterman Sykes’ (Asta Evans, 21 maggio 1824, lot 1405: “blue morocco” Rarissima edizione, già in parte edita a Reggio nel 1501, che contiene un compendio compilato da Guarino Veronese degli Erotemata del Crisolora - gli Erotemata Guarini - seguiti dal ricco commento di Pontico Virunio e da una breve vita del celebre grammatico greco. La stampa ferrarese del Mazzocchi, prefata da una lettera agli studiosi del filologo aquinense Giovanni Maria Tricaglio, è particolarmente significativa dal momento che vede la luce proprio in uno di quei centri in cui il culto della lingua e delle lettere greche era stato più vivo. Infatti Guarino Veronese e suo figlio Battista furono per parecchi decenni precettori della famiglia d’Este e attirarono nella città adriatica due generazioni di umanisti tra cui spicca Niccolò Leoniceno. «Guarino had probably met Chrysoloras on his first visit to Venice with Kydones. Since his return to Italy the Greek scholar’s fame as a teacher had spread to Venice, and Guarino, who was teaching privately there at the time, was so fired with enthusiasm that he decided to be the first Italian to go to Costantinople to learn about Greek literature, just as Chrysoloras had been the first Greek to come to Italy to teach the Italian his language» (K. Staikos, Charta of Greek Printing, Cologne 1998, p. 114). LEGRAND III, 143; ADAMS C- 1503.

FREGOSO (Gianbattista).
De Dictis Factisque Memorabilibus collectanea: a Camillo Gilino latina facta.
      (A la fin:) Milan, Giacomo Ferrari, 22 Juin 1509. - in-folio. 326ff. Parchemin ancien. Edition Originale. Gianbattista Fregoso (1453-1504), d'une illustre famille italienne, fut doge de Gênes en 1473. C'était un fin lettré qui a laissé diverses ?uvres littéraires. Cet ouvrage est une sorte d'encyclopédie où Fregoso recense des faits, des inventions et des événements remarquables (invention de l'imprimerie, découverte de l'Amérique par Colomb, etc.). Ce caractère encyclopédique est sans doute ce qui lui avait valu d'être utilisé dans l'enseignement à Milan au début du XVI siècle: " due opere elaborate in ambienti laici, il "Liber de doctrina dicendi et tacendi' di Albertano da Brescia e il 'De dictis factisque memorabilibus' di Battista Fregoso, sembrano piu specificamente rivolti a quei confratelli di S. Corona che rientravono fra i nuovi operatori culturali laici dell'epoca, portatori di un sapere legato indissolubilimente con la vita civile, maturato nel campo dell'urbanistica, delle pretiche amministrative, dei consigli giuridici, della sanità pubblica, delle techniche economiche" (Marina Gazzini, "Scuola, libri et cultura nelle confraternita milanesi fra tardo medioevo e prima éta moderna" in : Scrineum 3). Angle de 3 feuillets réparé loin du texte, traces de cachets anciens, quelques mouillures. Dos de la reliure restauré. Bon exemplaire grand de marges, tiré sur papier fort. Brunet, II, 1421: "Ouvrage estimé et peu commun". Hoeffer, 765: "Très recherchée". Cf. Formisano, "Italian Reports on America, 1493-1522". Adams F1148. Sabin 26140. [Attributes: First Edition]
