      Hiersemann Verlag - Schottenloher, Karl Bibliographie zur deutschen Geschichte im Zeitalter der Glaubensspaltung 1517-1585 (Hiersemann, A) ISBN: 978-3-7772-5605-4 Halbleder 4700 S. Schottenloher, Karl Bibliographie zur deutschen Geschichte im Zeitalter der Glaubensspaltung 1517-1585 Verlag : Hiersemann, A ISBN : 978-3-7772-5605-4 Einband : Halbleder Preisinfo : 502,00 Eur[D] Alle Preisangaben in CHF (Schweizer Franken) sind unverbindliche Preisempfehlungen. Legende: UVP = unverbindliche Preisempfehlung, iVb = in Vorbereitung. Seiten/Umfang : 4700 S. Erschienen : 2. Aufl. 1966 502,00 Eur[D] Karl Schottenlohers Bibliographie zur deutschen Geschichte im Zeitalter der Glaubensspaltung 1517-1585 erschien erstmals in den Jahren 1933 bis 1940. Seit 1958 liegt das sechsbändige Werk in einer zweiten, unveränderten Auflage vor. Schon frühzeitig nach dem Erscheinen der ersten Auflage, die die Literatur bis zum Jahre 1937 verzeichnet, war der Plan gefaßt worden, zu der in aller Welt bekannten und geschätzten Bibliographie einen Ergänzungsband zu schaffen, um das einschlägige Schrifttum ab 1938 nachzutragen. Schottenloher selbst hatte die Vorbereitungen dazu noch getroffen und Material für einen Ergänzungsband gesammelt, doch setzte der Tod seiner Arbeit im Juli 1954 ein Ende. Als früherer Kollege und Mitarbeiter Schottenlohers an der Bayerischen Staatsbibliothek München hat dann der wissenschaftliche Bibliothekar Ulrich Thürauf es übernommen, das Werk fortzusetzen und zu vollenden. Der Arbeit des Bibliographen standen hierzu die reichen Bestände und bibliographischen Hilfsmittel der Bayerischen Staatsbibliothek zur Verfügung, auch kam ihr die Förderung durch deren Generaldirektion und durch die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft zugute. So konnte das Manuskript für den Ergänzungsband nach dreijähriger Arbeitszeit abgeschlossen werden. Die Bibliographie gibt eine erschöpfende Übersicht über das, was über die Zeit der Reformation und Gegenreformation bisher erforscht und geschrieben worden ist, wobei sie neben dem politischen und kirchlichen Geschehen auch das Persönliche, Örtliche, Zuständliche, kurz das ganze Erlebnis des Menschen jener Zeit im Schrifttum widerspiegelt. Deutsche Geschichte ist dabei als Gesamtgeschehen in Staat und Kirche, Recht, Wirtschaft und Verkehr, Kunst und Wissenschaft, Persönlichkeit und Volksleben aufgefaßt. Das Werk ist eine kritische Auswahl, eine bibliographie raisonnée . Es verzeichnet Quellen und Literatur, von letzterer nicht nur selbständige Schriften, sondern auch Zeitschriftenaufsätze des In- und Auslandes. Wo eine sehr umfangreiche Literatur vorhanden war, wurde besonders kritisch gesichtet. Dennoch umfassen beispielsweise die Nachweise über das Thema Luther noch rund 3700 Titel. Nach Abschluß des Ergänzungsbandes umfaßt das Gesamtwerk jetzt über 65 600 Titel, wobei die Numerierung fortlaufend durchgeführt ist. Die rund 13 400 Titel des Ergänzungsbandes umschließen die einschlägige Literatur der Jahre 1938 bis 1960 und bringen Nachträge zu dem Hauptwerk, an das sie mit dem Titel 52 200 anschließen. Selbstverständlich ist der Ergänzungsband völlig nach den gleichen Editionsprinzipien angelegt: Die Gliederung erfolgt in der gleichen Reihenfolge von den Personen über Orte und Landschaften, Reich und Kaiser, Territorien und Landesherren, Gesamtdarstellungen der Reformationszeit bis zu den Stoffen, abschließend mit dem Verfasser- und dem Titelregister. Format, Satzspiegel und zweispaltiger Satz wie auch der Halbledereinband entsprechen genau dem Hauptwerk. Mit dem Erscheinen des Ergänzungsbandes ist eine unentbehrliche Standardbibliographie, die in keiner wissenschaftlichen Bibliothek und in keinem historischen und kirchengeschichtlichen Institut fehlen dürfte, fortgeführt.

Sheila Porrer
Jacques Lefèvre d'Etaples and the Three Maries Debates
      DROZ - 9782600012485 Livre usage a l'etat de neuf / Used book as new condition Introduction, Latin text, English translation and Annotation by Sheila M. Porrer Le grand éditeur et exégète humaniste de la Préréforme, Jacques Lefèvre d’Etaples, publia de 1517 à 1519 quatre opuscules connus sous le titre des "Trois Marie". Parus au moment même de l’émergence de la Réforme luthérienne, vite assimilés – à tort – à la lutte déjà entamée entre novateurs et conservateurs, mais déclenchant à leur tour une querelle célèbre où s’ébauchent les grandes lignes de la campagne antiluthérienne, ces écrits – les seuls qu’il ait publiés comme auteur – définissent la pensée de Lefèvre. En traitant, au nom de la piété et d’une lecture éclairée des textes sacrés, de la question de l’identité de la Madeleine et de la véracité d’une tradition qui fit des saintes femmes des Evangiles les demi-soeurs de la Vierge, Lefèvre s’attaquait à un culte cher à ses contemporains, que ceux-ci défendirent avec acharnement. En outre, sa discussion de la manière de calculer les ‘trois journées’ (le triduum) entre la Crucifixion et la Résurrection du Christ, peu connue, et qui ne provoqua guère de répliques, est peut-être la plus révélatrice de son exégèse, et de ses rapports avec Erasme. Sheila Porrer donne la première édition moderne des quatre opuscules, en établissant le texte latin assorti d’une traduction anglaise. Son introduction et ses notes critiques retracent les origines et le cours d’une querelle essentielle de l’histoire religieuse et culturelle. ###############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################

Beck, Leonhard. Pfintzing, Melchior [Maximillian I, Of Germany]
Theuerdank [Die Geuerlicheiten Und Eins Tells Der Geschichten Des...Ritters Herr Tewrdanckhs
      Johann Schoensperger, 1517. Folio Single leaf on paper. First Edition. Light paper toning and some staining. Woodcut #35 ascribed to Leonhard Beck. A wood scene with a mounted huntsman, a figure holding a device, a rearing horse, a man attacking a boar with a double-handed sword, and a castle in the rear. This famously beautiful font was designed by the court calligrapher and personal secretary to Maximillian--Vinzenz Rockner and cut by Jost Dienecker of Antwerp. The Theuerdank fraktur is almost "modern" and was the model for many subsequent designs. It is embellished with ornamental flourishes. Leonhard Beck (c. 1480-1542) was a painter and draughtsman in Augsburg, Germany. His drawings for the Theuerdank were based on the designs of the Emperor Maximillian. "One of the most important patrons of art in the sixteenth century was the German emperor Maximilian I. He has been noted as the last great knight of Europe and the "patron of humanistic romanticism".1 His life is best known to us today because he had such an interest in the arts, mainly as a means of immortalizing his existence. The Theuerdank is one of three large books that Maximilian commissioned. The other two, Weisskunig and Freydal were to be the first and third installments, respectively, of a trilogy highlighting Maximilian's life. Only Theuerdank was published before his death. Theuerdank, literally meaning "The Knight of Adventurous Thoughts", is an allegory in the form of epic verse that retells the adventures of Maximilian as he traveled to woo his future wife, Mary of Burgundy. Although she died after only five years of marriage, Maximilian regarded the years of his courtship as the ideal romantic interlude and the epitome of a knightly adventure. Mary was indeed the daughter of his own knightly hero, Charles the Bold of Burgundy. The book is largely fictitious, characterizing Maximilian as a chivalric knight in the Arthurian sense.

This German city was acutely influenced by the ideas of the Italian Renaissance, and Burgkmair, who spent at least part of 1507 in Italy studying, naturally shows an Italianate influence in his work.

Theuerdank [Die Geuerlicheiten und eins tells der Geschichten des . Ritters herr Tewrdanckhs
      Johann Schoensperger, Augsburg: 1517. - Folio Single leaf on paper. First Edition. Light paper toning and a few light spots. Woodcut #34 ascribed to Erhard Schon by Dodgson I,p419.Two men in the fore-ground watch a man with a crossbow shoot at a bird in a tree. A another man reacts by falling backwards. This famously beautiful font was designed by the court calligrapher and personal secretary to Maximillian -- Vinzenz Rockner and cut by Jost Dienecker of Antwerp. The Theuerdank fraktur is almost "modern" and was the model for many subsequent designs. It is embellished with ornamental flourishes . Erhard Schšn (c1491-1542). "Scholars have attributed some 1,200 illustrations for 116 books and about two hundred separate woodcuts to Erhard Schšn, making him one of the era's most prolific woodblock designers. He probably took his earliest instruction from his father, a minor Nuremberg painter, then studied Albrecht DŸrer's prints while living in the artist's house for several years." [Getty-on-line."One of the most important patrons of art in the sixteenth century was the German emperor Maximilian I. He has been noted as the last great knight of Europe and the "patron of humanistic romanticism".1 His life is best known to us today because he had such an interest in the arts, mainly as a means of immortalizing his existence. The Theuerdank is one of three large books that Maximilian commissioned. The other two, Weisskunig and Freydal were to be the first and third installments, respectively, of a trilogy highlighting Maximilian's life. Only Theuerdank was published before his death.Theuerdank, literally meaning "The Knight of Adventurous Thoughts", is an allegory in the form of epic verse that retells the adventures of Maximilian as he traveled to woo his future wife, Mary of Burgundy. Although she died after only five years of marriage, Maximilian regarded the years of his courtship as the ideal romantic interlude and the epitome of a knightly adventure. Mary was indeed the daughter of his own knightly hero, Charles the Bold of Burgundy. The book is largely fictitious, characterizing Maximilian as a chivalric knight in the Arthurian sense. The text is supposedly written by Melchior Pfintzing, a friend of Maximilian, but Maximilian himself probably composed the majority of the work." VD 16 B1649-51. Fairfax/Murray 330.

The text is supposedly written by Melchior Pfintzing, a friend of Maximilian, but Maximilian himself probably composed the majority of the work...The design of the book, together with the woodcuts done by Hans Burgkmair, is an important example of the type of book being published after the years of Albrecht Drer. Drer created, through such books as the Apocalypse and the Life of the Virgin, a vehicle for the professional illustrator. These books, printed mainly in the centers of Nuremberg, Augsburg, Frankfurt and Basel, usually consisted of more cuts than text. The Theuerdank is one of these books.Burgkmair himself was one of the many artists working for the emperor, and only did 13 to 14 of the 118 large woodcuts throughout the book. Hans Scheufelein and Leonhard Beck did the majority of the rest. The son of a painter, Burgkmair received his early training from his father and then went to Colmar to study under Martin Schongauer.5 Augsburg was the city he worked in for most of his career. This German city was acutely influenced by the ideas of the Italian Renaissance, and Burgkmair, who spent at least part of 1507 in Italy studying, naturally shows an Italianate influence in his work."

      O. O. und o. Dr., [1517 oder 1518]. - Kl.-4to. Mit halbseitigem Titelholzschnitt (Wappen von Papst Leo X.). [4] Bl. (letzte Seite unbedruckt). Halbpergamentband. Lateinische Ausgabe dieses sehr seltenen Berichts von den siegreichen Feldzügen in Syrien und Aegypten des ottomanischen Sultans Selim I., genannt Yavuz ("der Unnachgiebige"), gegen Ismail I., Schah von Persien (1500-1524) und Gründer der Herrscher-Dynastie der Safawiden und gegen den Sultan von Aegypten, El-Ashraf Kansuh at Ghawri (1501-1517). Der vier Seiten beanspruchende Haupttext berichtet über den Krieg zwischen Selim I. und den Mameluken unter Führung von Sultan al-Asraf Qansuh II., al Ghawri (1501-1516). Die beiden als Briefe bezeichneten Textpassagen am Schluss liefern ergänzende Informationen zu einzelnen Punkten. Die Schilderung bezieht sich auf die Zeit zwischen dem Aufbruch Selims Anfang Juni 1516 und endet mit dem triumphalen Einzug der siegreichen Truppen in Kairo am 20. Februar 1517. Während Pamphilus Gengenbach in seinem Druck - deshalb vermutlich die Editio princeps dieses Textes - das erste im Text erwähnte Datum vom 8. Juni 1516 korrekt druckt, wird es in der vorliegenden Druckversion falsch mit 1517 wiedergegeben. Gegenüber dem Basler Druck Gengenbachs zeichnet sich die vorliegende Ausgabe aus durch Verwendung einer Antiquatype, 27 Zeilen pro Seite gegenüber 33 bei Gengenbach, Verwendung römisch gedruckter Ziffern (beim Basler Druck in Worten gedruckt) und vier einfachen zweizeiligen Initialen sowie dem Schlusswort "Finis" (bei Gengenbach "Telos"). Das Verzeichnis der im deutschen Sprachbereich erschienenen Drucke des 16. Jhs. (VD 16) verzeichnet alleine sieben verschiedene deutsche Drucke (O-739 bis O-744). Desweiteren ist eine von Hans Dorn in Braunschweig gedruckte niederdeutsche Version in der Ratsbücherei von Lüneburg nachgewiesen (VD 16, ZV-11985). Während von Gengenbachs lateinischem Druck mehrere Exemplare in öffentlichen Bibliotheken nachzuweisen sind (die UB Basel allein besitzt deren drei), können wir von dem vorliegenden Druck nur drei Exemplare in Deutschland (BSB München, Stuttgart und Leipzig), eines in der Nationalbibliothek in Paris (BNF 33519123 ) sowie fünf in US-Bibliotheken nachweisen (vgl. Worldcat). Göllner, Turcica, 115; vgl. K. Prietzel. P. Gengenbach, Drucker zu Basel (1999), S. 328f. und Fussnoten 148-149. Nicht im VD 16 (aber in der BSB München vorhanden). Latin edition of utmost rarity of a treatise on the Ottoman Empire and the history of the war between Sultan Selim I and the Mameluks. The three part covers the time from June 1516 to the invasion of Cairo in February 1517. It seems stringent that by the fact that in the present imprint the first date given is printed erronously as 1517 instead of 1516 the Latin edition printed by Pamphilus Gengenbach at Basel with the correct date marks the editio princeps of this text. The first part is covering four pages and contains the proper account, while the two additional texts called 'letters' itemize the main part. There were translations into French and Italian but by far the greatest popularity achieved the German version translated by Theobald Baltner. The catalogue of 16th century German imprints, known as VD 16, records seven different German editions (VD 16 (O-739 bis O-744), and an additional version in Low German was printed at Braunschweig (VD 16, ZV-11985). While the Latin edition of Gengenbach is not that rare (the university library at Basel alone keeps three copies), we could trace of the present Latin edition only the following nine copies: three in Germany (Munich, Stuttgart and Leipzig [but none recorded VD 16), one in the National Library in Paris (BNF33519123 ) and five copies in US libraries (cf. Worldcat).

FORTIGUERRE, Scipione - Pseudonym: Carteromachus (1466-1515)].
Oratio de laudibus literarum graecarum.
      (Basel, Johann Froben, März 1517). - Kl.-4to (208 x 143 mm). Titel innerhalb breiter Holzschnitt-Bordüre von Hans Holbein d.J., mit grosser Eingangsinitiale C [aus dem grossen Kinderalphabet Holbeins] in Holzschnitt und Holzschnitt-Druckermarke auf Schlussblatt verso. [14] Bl. Moderne Broschur. Seltene Froben-Ausgabe, die zweite insgesamt, der zuerst im Januar 1504 bei Aldus Manutius gedruckten Antrittsrede Forteguerris, erster Sekretär und Professor der Academia Aldina in Venedig, deren Statuten er auf griechisch verfasste. In seiner Lobrede auf die griechische Literatur und Sprache, die älter und der lateinischen überlegen sei, streicht er auch Aldus Manutius' grosse Verdienste als Vermittler der Texte der antiken Klassiker heraus. Scipione Fortiguerre aus Pistoia gehörte auch zu den frühesten Mitarbeitern in der Offizin von Manutius, er unterrichtete u. a. auch Giulio de Medici (1478-1534), der ab 1523 als Papst Clement VII wirken sollte. Die hier erstmals verwendete Titeleinfassung zeigt die Enthauptung Johannes des Täufers (Müller, Holbein Druckgraphik Nr. 14). Es handelt sich hier um die dritte Titeleinfassung, die Froben bei Holbein in Auftrag gab und "dürfte etwa Oktober-Dezember 1516 . entstanden sein" (F. Hieronymus). - Aussensteg des etwas gebräunten Titels angefranst, drei Bl. mit kleinem Papierausriss im Aussensteg (ohne Textbeeinträchtigung), Papierausbruch im Fusssteg innen alt restauriert, obere Ecken mit kleinem Wasserfleck. VD 16 F-1921; STC, (German), 184; Hieronymus, Oberrheinische Buchillustration II, 238 und Abb. 601, 3. Rare Froben edition of the inaugural address of Scipione Forteguerri, an eulogy of Greek literature and language. After the first edition printed by Aldus Manutius in January 1504 this is the second edition in all of this work, in which Forteguerri also lays stress on Aldus' services to humanity in providing more sound texts than had been available at any time since the fall of the Roman Empire. Scipione Forteguerri da Pistoia was one of the earliest collaborators of Aldus Manutius press, a teacher of Pope Clement VII [Giulio de' Medici (1478-1534; Pope from 1523)], and the first Secretary of the Aldine Academy at Venice. The woodcut title border by Hans Holbein is the third - but used as fourth - commissioned by Froben. - Title slightly browned and outer margin frayed, three leaves with small loss of paper in outer and two (restaured) in lower margins (not affecting text), uppe corners waterstained. - Modern plain wrappers.

      (Nürnberg, Jobst Gutknecht, 1517). - Kl.-4to. Mit halbseitigem Titelholzschnitt (Schlachtszene). [4] Bl. Flexibler Pergamentband. Erstausgabe. Äusserst seltene Nürnberger Türkenschrift, sie berichtet von den siegreichen Feldzügen in Syrien und Aegypten des ottomanischen Sultans Selim I., genannt Yavuz ("der Unnachgibige"), gegen Ismail I., Schah von Persien (1500-1524) und Gründer der Herrscher-Dynastie der Safawiden sowie gegen den Sultan von Aegypten, El-Ashraf Kansuh at Ghawri (1501-1517). Nach dem Sieg von Haleb im August 1516 und Ridania wurden Damaskus und Kairo erobert. Sultan Selim I. wird danach zum Schutzherrn von Mekka und Medina und versuchte denn auch, dem Feldzug den Charakter eines Kampfes für den Islam zu geben. Laut Titel wurden die Geschehnisse von einem "Christen Kauffman wonend zu Alexandria" dem Papst mitgeteilt. In welcher Sprache diese Depeche übermittelt wurde, ist nicht eindeutig zu klären. Jedenfalls nennt Göllner eine lateinische Fassung (Omnia que gesta sunt in oriente .), welche die Vorlage für eine italienische (Tutte le cose passate in levante .), deutsche (Hiernach ist begriffen alle geschicht so sich in Levant . begeben hat) sowie eine französische Ausgabe (Nouvelles bonnes lesquelles sont produictes et venuez d'orient .) gewesen sein soll (vgl. Göllner 113-115, 117-118 und 120; zur deutschen Version siehe auch VD 16, O-739-740 und O-742). Das VD 16 verzeichnet die Flugschrift sowohl unter Baltners Namen (VD 16, B-249-251) als auch als Übersetzung des lateinischen Titels Omnia que gesta sunt in oriente . (VD 16, O-741 sowie O-743-744), wobei Göllner bei Baltners deutscher Version nicht auf den lateinischen Text verweist, sondern diesen als "Verworrenen Bericht über die Kämpfe Selims I." bezeichnet. Einig zu sein scheinen sich die Kataloge in der Datierung von Baltners Flugschrift, die sie alle in das Jahr 1517 einreihen - obschon diese undatiert ist - die lateinische und deren Übersetzungen jedoch ins Jahr 1518. Der vorliegende Druck wurde vermeintlich gleichen Jahres in Leipzig nachgedruckt und 1518 in Strassburg, Erfurt und Breslau; alle diese Flugschriften sind jedoch ebenfalls undatiert! Zu Baltner waren keine biographischen Angaben zu finden. Insgesamt können wir nur 6 Exemplare in öffentlichen Institutionen nachweisen: BSB München; UB Erlangen (Titel ungenau zitiert, möglicherweise auch eine andere Ausgabe); StaBibl. Regensburg; Cambridge University; SB Berlin (ohne Angabe von Ort und Drucker); HAB Wolfenbüttel (mit Datum 1518?). - Kein Exemplar in den USA; die Sammlungen Blackmer und Atabey enthielten keine Ausgabe dieser Flugschrift. - Titel mit Spur eines entfernten Blattweisers, schwacher Feuchtigkeitsrand und gering fleckig. VD 16, B-251 (2 Ex.: BSB München und HAB Wolfenbüttel); Göllner, Turcica, 84 und vgl. 115 und 114; Köhler 218; Zeitungen und Relationen. Kat. 89 von J. Rosenthal (1928), Nr. 10; Index Aurel. 112.104. First edition of this scarce Nuremberg tract on the Ottoman empire under Sultan Selim I, called Yavus ("the Brave") who had started to war to Persian Shah, Shah Ismail, and who extended the empire to Syria, the Hejaz, and Egypt and raised the Ottomans to leadership of the Muslim world. According to the title the events were communicated by a Christian merchant from Alexandria to the Pope, but it is not clear in what language that happened. Goellner mentions a Latin version (Omnia que gesta sunt in oriente), which apparently should serve as the source for an Italian translation (Omnia que gesta sunt in oriente .), a German (Hiernach ist begriffen alle geschicht so sich in Levant . begeben hat) and a French edition (Nouvelles bonnes lesquelles sont produictes et venuez d'orient [cf. Göllner 113-115, 117-118 and 120]). For the German version see also: VD 16, O-739-740 and O-742. Here it is recorded as well as under Baltner's name (VD 16, B-249-251) as a Latin translation from the Italian (VD 16, O-741 and O-743-744). All agree however in dating Baltner's text with 1517 and with 1518 for the Latin edition a [Attributes: First Edition]

AUSONIUS, D[ecimus Magnus (310-394)].
Opera. Hrsg. von Girolamo Avanzi].
      (Venezia, eredi di Aldo Manuzio e Andrea Torresano, Novembre 1517). - Kl.-8vo (153 x 94 mm). Mit Manuzios Druckerzeichen in Holzschnitt auf Titel und wiederholt auf Schlussblatt verso. 107, [1] Bl. Pergamenband des 17. Jhs., mit goldgeprägtem Rückentitel (Rücken an Kopf und Fuss etwas beschädigt, kurzer Wurmgang im Vorderdeckel). Erste und einzige Aldinen-Ausgabe der Werke von Ausonius, aus Bordeaux stammender Lehrer des späteren Kaisers Flavius Gratianus, der ihn 379 zum Konsul ernannte. In seiner Widmung an Kardinal Marco Cornelio preist der Herausgeber Girolamo Avanzi die Verlegertätigkeit Andrea Torresanis, seit 1500 Schwiegervater von Aldo Manuzio. Besondere Berühmtheit erlangte Ausonius' mit seinen beiden, hier ab Bl. 79ff. zu findenden, Werken Bissula, ein Liederzyklus über eine Kriegsgefangene aus Schwaben, sowie Mosella, ein idyllisches Lobgedicht auf die Vorzüge des Moseltals während einer Rhein-Mosel-Fahrt von Bingen bis Trier, wo Ausonius als Prinzenerzieher einige Zeit gelebt hatte. Die beiden Gedichte gehören zu dem wenigen, was an römischer Literatur überhaupt auf deutschem Boden entstanden ist. Nach Schweiger weist der Text dieser Aldinen-Ausgabe Eigentümlichkeiten auf, ungewiss sei auch, ob Avanzi neue Handschriften herangezogen habe, oder ob es sich um einen Nachdruck der Ausgabe von 1507 handle. - Hs. Name auf Vorsatz und hs. Zitat aus Renouards Bibliographie, kleines Loch im Schlussblatt, Bl. 35-38 mit schwachem Wasserflecken. Etienne/Prete/Desgraves, Ausone, Humaniste Aquitain (1985), S. 181f., Nr. 31; Ahmanson-Murphy II, 137; Index Aurel. 110.889; Renouard 80:7; Schweiger II/1, 21; Dibdin I, 345; Adams A-2278; Dibdin I, 573; Aldinen-Sammlung Berlin 282. First and sole Aldine edition of the works of the Bordeaux born Decimus Magnus Ausonius. According to Schweiger it remains unclear if the editor Girolamo Avanzi used new found manuscripts for this edition or whether it is a reissue of his 1507 edition. In his preface Avanzi, an early member of the Accademia Aldina founded in 1500, praises the activity of Andrea Torresani whose daughter had married Aldo Manuzio in 1500. Ausonius' most important poems Bissula and Mosella (on fol. 79ff.) are among the very few works of Roman literature written on German ground. The poem Mosella (483 hexameters), an eulogy of the river Mosel and its valley, was written at Trier where Ausonius was the private teacher of Flavius Gratianus, the son of Emperor Valentianus I. - Ms. name and citation from Renouard's bibliography on first fly-leaf, small hole on last leaf, light waterstain on leaves 35-28. - 17th century vellum (spine somewhat worn, short wormtrack on front cover). la

Burgkmair, Hans. Pfintzing, Melchior [Maximillian I, of Germany]
Theuerdank [Die Geuerlicheiten und eins tells der Geschichten des . Ritters herr Tewrdanckhs
      Johann Schoensperger, Augsburg: 1517. - Folio Single leaf on paper. First Edition. Light paper toning. Woodcut #36 ascribed to Hans Burgkmair.Three men on horseback reacting to an avalanche from a mountain in the rear ground.This famously beautiful font was designed by the court calligrapher and personal secretary to Maximillian -- Vinzenz Rockner and cut by Jost Dienecker of Antwerp. The Theuerdank fraktur is almost "modern" and was the model for many subsequent designs. It is embellished with ornamental flourishes . "One of the most important patrons of art in the sixteenth century was the German emperor Maximilian I. He has been noted as the last great knight of Europe and the "patron of humanistic romanticism".1 His life is best known to us today because he had such an interest in the arts, mainly as a means of immortalizing his existence. The Theuerdank is one of three large books that Maximilian commissioned. The other two, Weisskunig and Freydal were to be the first and third installments, respectively, of a trilogy highlighting Maximilian's life. Only Theuerdank was published before his death.Theuerdank, literally meaning "The Knight of Adventurous Thoughts", is an allegory in the form of epic verse that retells the adventures of Maximilian as he traveled to woo his future wife, Mary of Burgundy. Although she died after only five years of marriage, Maximilian regarded the years of his courtship as the ideal romantic interlude and the epitome of a knightly adventure. Mary was indeed the daughter of his own knightly hero, Charles the Bold of Burgundy. The book is largely fictitious, characterizing Maximilian as a chivalric knight in the Arthurian sense. The text is supposedly written by Melchior Pfintzing, a friend of Maximilian, but Maximilian himself probably composed the majority of the work.The design of the book, together with the woodcuts done by Hans Burgkmair, is an important example of the type of book being published after the years of Albrecht DŸrer. DŸrer created, through such books as the Apocalypse and the Life of the Virgin, a vehicle for the professional illustrator. These books, printed mainly in the centers of Nuremberg, Augsburg, Frankfurt and Basel, usually consisted of more cuts than text. The Theuerdank is one of these books.Burgkmair himself was one of the many artists working for the emperor, and only did 13 to 14 of the 118 large woodcuts throughout the book. Hans SchŠufelein and Leonhard Beck did the majority of the rest. The son of a painter, Burgkmair received his early training from his father and then went to Colmar to study under Martin Schongauer.5 Augsburg was the city he worked in for most of his career. This German city was acutely influenced by the ideas of the Italian Renaissance, and Burgkmair, who spent at least part of 1507 in Italy studying, naturally shows an Italianate influence in his work."

MARTIAL.
Epigrammata.
      - Venice, in aedibus Aldi et Andreae Soceri, December 1517. 8.vo ff 190 (ii). Italic letter, anchor and dolphin device on title and verso of last, capital spaces with guide letters, C19 armorial bookplate of the Earl of Macclesfield on pastedown, Shirburn Castle blindstamp to head of first two ll. A very good copy in mid seventeenth century English calf, covers bordered with a double gilt filet, spine double gilt ruled in compartments with fleur de lys at corners and central fleurons, title gilt in one compartment, raised bands, all edges speckled red. Second Aldine edition, a reprint of Aldus' edn. of 1501, with the letter from Pliny the younger to Cornelius Priscus on verso of title as its only prefatory matter. Martial, certainly a Spaniard and probably a Basque, spent his working life in Rome carefully observing his fellow man and recording them for us in these exquisite vignettes. The Epigrams (Martial's most important work), are short poems, each expressing pointedly and concisely some single idea, and are generally in the form of a satire. Martial describes with the most realistic detail the vices of his age. The fortune hunters, gluttons, drunkards, debauchers, hypocrites of various kinds and stingy patrons come back to life in his verses - along with the occasional plea for a gift or a loan, thanks to a faithful friend or honest critic, or a simple hello or farewell. Many give vivid glimpses of the contemporary Roman scene, the hot sausage vendor on his round, the tiresome guest who arrives too late for breakfast and too early for lunch, others are simply obscene. But beneath the humour there is the serious purpose of exposing the frailties of humanity, albeit more with amusement than indignation. Martial himself pleaded that his epigrams were far more serious than most other authors' tragedies and he was probably right. Perhaps because of allegations of obscenity - but Martial did not invent, he described what he saw - the Epigrammata were relatively neglected in the first century of printing. A very good copy from the extraordinary library of the Earls of Macclesfield. Early editions of Martial are now scarce. BM. STC. It. p.420. Renouard 81:11. Adams M 694. Brunet III 1490.

A fine, well margined copy, on thick paper, crisp and clean with very fine impression of type and woodcuts, in contemporary French (probably Parisian) blind-stamped calf, covers blind ruled to a panel design, central panel in a 'Gril de St Laurent' design of vertical strips of repeated acanthus leaf and vase rolls in blind, outer panel with the same blind roll, spine, rebacked in the early C17, gilt in compartments with gilt raised bands, red morocco label gilt, joints and head and tail restored, covers a little rubbed and scratched, with small tears in lower cover, lacking clasps and catches, all edges gilt and gauffered. A rare and beautifully illustrated edition of Guillame Fillastre's most famous work, composed between 1468 and 1473, first printed by Regnault in 1516 of which this edition is an exact copy. Guillaume Fillastre the younger was the illegitimate son of a Benedictine Nun and the humanist Cardinal Guillaume Fillastre (died 1428) after whom he was named. He was raised and educated in the ecclesiastical channel but he eventually joined the services of the Dukes of Burgundy. Devoted, on the one hand to the Pope and on the other to Philip, he achieved high status with both. He became counselor to Philip in 1440 and quickly rose to Prominence thanks to his erudition and diplomatic skill. The duke appointed him head of his counsel in 1457 and chancellor of the order of the golden fleece in 1461. Successive Popes nominated him Bishop of Toul in 1449 and of Tournai in 1460. Throughout his erudite career Fillastre had written many treatises to enhance the glory of the dukes of Burgundy and had patronised works of art to that effect. The Chroniques de France Manuscript which he presented in 1457 to Philip was modified to include passages of the History of Flanders to justify the Duke's aspirations to rule over a revived Lotharingian Empire. Fillastre wrote his history of the order of the Golden Fleece at the request of the Duke of Burgundy between 1468 and 1473. In it he set out to discuss the historical, spiritual and ceremonial significance of six fleeces from Biblical and Classical literature. It always makes the connection between the mythical past, history, the bible and the contemporary, giving examples of chivalry and modes of behavior expected of members of the order. It is also a general celebration of contemporary Burgundian culture which its links to the time of Charlemagne as well as implying military connections with Ancient Rome and philosophical connections with Classical Athens. Fillastre also wrote a third volume dealing with virtue and prudence that was never published A number of manuscript copies of the text were made for the important members of the order. They regularly have the same formulaic frontispiece to Book II representing the 1473 Chapter during which Fillastre presented his Histoire to Charles the Bold who had requested the text at the 1468 meeting. The miniature shows Charles seated under a blue cloth of honor embroidered with his arms, members of the order wearing the Order's collar and scarlet robes flank the Duke. Fillastre in the robes of the bishop of Tournai stands in the foreground presenting his work. This scene is copied in this printed version in a very fine three

Murmellius, Johannes.
Libellus optatissimus cui titulus Pappa [...].
      - (Basel, Adam Petri, 3. Aug. 1517).4 unn. Bll., 216 num. Spp., 217-257, (1) SS., l. w. Bl. Mit vierteiliger Titelbordüre in Holzschnitt von Urs Graf, Wappenholzschnitt am Titel verso sowie 1 schwarzgrundigen Holzschnittinitiale. [Vorgebunden] II: Cicero, Marcus Tullius. Epistole familiares. Cum Ascensianis introductiu[n]culis recognitis auctis, argumentis illustratis. Ex secunda recognitione. (Straßburg, Matthias Schürer, Jan. 1515). 208 (statt 216) röm. num. Bll. Mit Wappenholzschnitt am Titel und einigen Initialen in Holzschnitt. [Beigebunden] III: Horatius Flaccus, Quintus. Epodon liber. Eiusdem, de arte poetica. Item epistolarum libri duo. In fronte deniq[ue] libri Q. Horatii Flacci vita, per Petrum Crinitum Florentinum. (Straßburg, Matthias Schürer, Dez. 1516). 56 unnum. Bll. Mit Holzschnittdruckermarke am Schluß. Holzdeckelband der Zeit auf 3 Doppelbünden mit blindgepr. Schweinsleder-Rücken und 2 Schließen. 4to.I: Sehr seltene und wichtige Ausgabe des Hauptwerks des Frühhumanisten Murmel(l)ius (1480-1517) aus Roermond, der lange in Münster wirkte. "Am bekanntesten wurde Murmellius' 1513 veröffentlichtes lateinisch-deutsches Übungsbuch 'Pappa puerorum', das in mehreren Ländern Anwendung fand, wie mehr als 30 Auflagen bezeugen" (NDB XVIII, 613). "Die Ausgabe Basel 1517 wurde von Gervas Sauffer veranstaltet. In seinem dem Werk vorangestellten Empfehlungsschreiben hebt er den Wert der 'Pappa' im Vergleich zu ähnlichen zeitgenössischen Schriften besonders hervor. Dem Text des Murmellius fügt er im ersten Kapitel ca. 1100 Wörter hinzu, auch die 'Oratiunculae' werden um etwa die Hälfte erweitert. Darüber hinaus hat Sauffer den niederdeutschen Text des Murmellius ins Oberdeutsche (Breisgauer Dialekt) übertragen. Die oberdeutsche Fassung wird somit zu einer sprachgeschichtlich bedeutsamen Quelle, da ihr Druck älter als die oberdeutschen Ausgaben der Lutherbibel ist" (Brüggemann/Br., Sp. 376). Das Werk ist eingeteilt in die Abschnitte "Von gott und himmelischen dingen", "Von den zeiten", "Von den vier eleme[n]ten", "Der erdem, wasseren und stetten vocabulen[n]", "Der lande[n] und der nationen und stett namen", "vo[n] de[n] specie[n] der thiere[n], "Von mancherleyen kranckheiten", "Von wolriechenden krutern oder gewurzen", "Von steinen und edelen steinen", "Vo[n] metallen", "Von ma[n]cherley dranck", "Von den bucheren" etc. enthält auch zahlreiche deutsche Sprichwörter und Redensarten. - Die schöne signierte Titeleinfassung von Urs Graf zeigt seitlich ein nacktes Weib bzw. einen nackten, schwertumgürteten Mann auf Postamenten (Lüthi 50 b), im unteren Holzschnittelement datiert 1516 oben Petris Druckermarke. Am Schluß schwacher Wasserrand, sonst wohlerhaltenes Exemplar. - II: Seltener Nachdruck der erstmals 1502 erschienenen Rezension des Josse Bade. Ohne die Lagen l und M (Bll. 61-64 u. 205-208 Text nach Bl. 60 auf einem zwischengebundenen Blatt von zeitgenöss. Hand im Umfang von 10 Zeilen weitergeführt) die Lage m (Bll. 65-72) gelockert. Am Titel zeitgenöss. hs. Besitzvermerk des Bad Wimpfener Ordens der Hospitalbrüder des Heiligen Geistes. Die ersten Lagen etwas wurmstichig und am oberen Rand mit kl. Moderschaden (nur vereinzelt geringer Buchstabenverlust). - III. Nachdruck der Ausgabe von 1515. Am Schluss die schöne Druckermarke mit der Getreidegarbe im Wappenschild (vgl. Wendland 249). - Etwas wasserrandig, mit zahlr. zeitgenöss. hs. Marginalien (weitere Einträge von derselben Hand am letzten Bl. verso, am hinteren Vorsatz sowie am hinteren Innendeckel. Der Einband etwas wurmstichig (Vorderdeckel stärker) das Deckelleder verziert mit Jagdrolle (Schunke, Schwenke-Slg.: Jagd 19) und Einzelstempeln (Blattwerk mit Knospe: Kyriss 123, 7 sowie Spruchband "ihs": Kyriss 123, 6). Ernst Kyriss deutete die Werkstatt als Nachfolger des Tübinger Buchbinders Johannes Zoll (Kyriss Werkstatt 70) tatsächlich scheint aber doch, wie der Besitzeintrag zeigt, Ilse Schunkes umstrittene (einem Hinweis von H. Knaus folgende) Zuweisung der Werkstatt an Wimpfen am Neckar richtig zu sein. Der unbekannte, offenbar noch bis 1539 aktive Wimpfener Meister dürfte aber Teile von Zolls Stempelmaterial zur Verfügung gehabt haben. Die Jagdrolle ist lt. Schunke (Textband) "angeregt von Augsburg" (287). - Insgesamt schöner süddeutscher Schulsammelband des frühen 16. Jhs. mit einem der wichtigsten und einflußreichsten Lateinlehrbücher seiner Zeit sowie zwei seltenen Straßburger Klassikerausgaben. - I. VD 16, ZV 11254. Bernstein 2294. Brüggemann/Br. 329 (Anm.).

      Lyon, L. Hillaire, (1517). 4to. 6 ff., 141 ff, 1 ff blank. Printed in Gothic Letters. Eighteenth century mottled calf binding, spine gold-tooled with red titleshield. * According to Baudrier Laurent Hyllaire is mentioned as working in Lyon in 1506 and there is another mention of him in 1530 witnessing a marriage. In ink on the first page is the date 1498 but the book is in fact from 1517. * Juvenal, whose full name was Decimus Junius Juvenalis, was a satirical poet active in Imperial Rome in the 2nd and 3rd decades of the 2nd century. Juvenal, today, is most well-known for his 16 Satires (which were, already in ancient times, arranged into five books). These satires (Saturae) are sharp attacks on the vices and misdeeds of Roman society. [Baudrier Vol. II, p. 68]

GEOFFREY OF MONMOUTH.
History of Britain and the foundation of Arturian legend Britannie utriusque Regum Et Principum Origo & gesta insignia ex antiquissimis Britannici sermonis monumentis in latinum traducta: & ab Ascensio rursus maiore accuratione impressa.
      (Paris), Josse Badius Ascensius, 1517.. Sm.4to. 19th century marbled calf, spine ribbed and gilt, with red title-label. With large woodcut printer's device of a printing press on title, large woodcut coat-of-arms of Yves Cavellat at the end of the preliminaries, and numerous fine large and small white on black crible woodcut initials. (8), 101, (1 blank) lvs.. Second edition, like the first edition of 1508 edited by Yves Cavellat, but with the title slightly changed, and beautifully published by the famous Paris humanist and publisher, Josse Badius Ascentius (1462-1535). The "History of Britain" by Geoffrey "Arturus" of Monmouth, Latin Galfridus Monemutensis, (ca. 1100-1154), laid the foundation of Arthurian legend. This first "Brut" made Arhur and Merlin the romantic property of literary Europe, and it became a model and source for poets and chroniclers alike. And for Britain it did what Aeneas had done for Rome, finding in the mythical figure of Brutus, great-grandson of Aeneas, its name-giving founder. In Monmouth's History all Arthurian elements are given: Brutus and his disciple Corineas, the victor of the giant of Cornwall "Gogmagog"; Locrinus and his daughter Saber (cf. Milton's Comus); Bladud, the builder of Bath; Lear and his daughters (cf. Shakespeare); the three pairs of brothers: Ferrex and Porrex, Brennius and Belinus, and Elidure and Peridure, etc. The story of Vortigern and Rowena here received its definitive shape, and here Merlin appears for the first time, in the prelude to the figure of Arthur. Both first printed editions by Badius Ascentius of this epoch-making work are extremely rare. The book is well produced, printed in a fine "lettre batarde", with legenda in the margins, and richly adorned with woodcut initials. Josse Badius Ascensius added 6 distichs of his own, and a foreword to the reader. Good copy, with the bookplate of Charles Arthur Wynne Finch, and with 16th century ms. notes on both sides of first blank.- (Binding sl. splitting at top and bottom of spine; title and last blank sl. soiled; sl. marginal waterst. on first and last. Renouard, Josse Badius, II, pp. 462; STC French p. 196; Adams G 444.

LULL, Ramon.
      Lyons, Jacob Marechal for Simon Vincent, 5 May 1517. Third edition, the first edited by the LullistBernard de Lavinheta (d. c. 1530), of the definitive Ars Magna, Lull's greatest contribution to science - his attempt to unify all knowledge into a single system."Lull invented an 'art of finding truth' which inspired Leibniz's dream of a universal algebra four centuries later... The most distinctive characteristic of [his] Art is clearly its combinatory nature, which led to both the use of complex semimechanical techniques that sometimes required figures with separately revolving concentric wheels - 'volvelles', in bibliographical parlance - and to the symbolic notation of its alphabet. These features justify its classification among the forerunners of both modern symbolic logic and computer science, with its systematically exhaustive consideration of all possible combinations of the material under examination, reduced to a symbolic coding... The Art's function as a means of unifying all knowledge into a single system remained viable throughout the Renaissance and well into the seventeenth century. As a system of logical inquiry, its method of proceeding from basic sets of pre-established concepts by the systematic exploration of their combinations - in connection with any question on any conceivable subject - can be succinctly stated in terms taken from the Dissertatio de arte combinatoria (1666) of Leibniz, which was inspired by the Lullian Art: 'A proposition is made up of subject and predicate; hence all propositions are combinations. Hence the logic of inventing [discovering] propositions involves solving this problem: 1. given a subject, [finding] the predicates; 2. given a predicate, finding the subjects [to which it may] apply, whether by way of affirmation or negation'" (R. D. F. Pring-Mill in the DSB, sub Lull).The editor of this edition, the Franciscan Bernard de Lavinheta (d. c. 1530), was the greatest Lullist of the early 16th century. "Almost nothing is known of [his] background, nor even whether he was Spanish or French. We only know that before coming to Paris he taught at Salamanca. The brand of Lullism he brought there was that of the Lullist school of Barcelona and its interest in the Art. He was the first, as a trained theologian, to teach the Art at the University of Paris, thereby giving it the official sanction it had lacked for a century and a half. His publication of Lullian works at Lyon, Paris and Cologne in 1514-18 was very influential throughout Europe" (Anthony Bonner, Selected Works of Ramon Llull (Princeton University Press, 1985), vol. 1, p. 80).Palau 143693; Rogent & Duran 65.

GEOFFREY OF MONMOUTH.
BRITANNIE UTRIUSQUE REGUM ET PRINCIPUM ORIGO & GESTA INSIGNIA EX ANTIQUISSIMIS BRITANNICI SERMONIS MONUMENTIS IN LATINUM TRADUCTA: & AB ASCENSIO RURSUS MAIORE ACCURATIONE IMPRESSA. (PARIS), JOSSE BADIUS ASCENSIUS, 1517.
      Sm.4to. 19th century marbled calf, spine ribbed and gilt, with red title-label. With large woodcut printer's device of a printing press on title, large woodcut coat-of-arms of Yves Cavellat at the end of the preliminaries, and numerous fine large and small white on black crible' woodcut initials. (8), 101, (1 blank) lvs. Second edition, like the first edition of 1508 edited by Yves Cavellat, but with the title slightly changed, and beautifully published by the famous Paris humanist and publisher, Josse Badius Ascentius (1462-1535). The "History of Britain" by Geoffrey "Arturus" of Monmouth, Latin Galfridus Monemutensis, (ca. 1100-1154), laid the foundation of Arthurian legend. This first "Brut" made Arhur and Merlin the romantic property of literary Europe, and it became a model and source for poets and chroniclers alike. And for Britain it did what Aeneas had done for Rome, finding in the mythical figure of Brutus, great-grandson of Aeneas, its name-giving founder. In Monmouth's History all Arthurian elements are given: Brutus and his disciple Corineas, the victor of the giant of Cornwall "Gogmagog"; Locrinus and his daughter Saber (cf. Milton's Comus); Bladud, the builder of Bath; Lear and his daughters (cf. Shakespeare); the three pairs of brothers: Ferrex and Porrex, Brennius and Belinus, and Elidure and Peridure, etc. The story of Vortigern and Rowena here received its definitive shape, and here Merlin appears for the first time, in the prelude to the figure of Arthur. Both first printed editions by Badius Ascentius of this epoch-making work are extremely rare. The book is well produced, printed in a fine "lettre batarde", with legenda in the margins, and richly adorned with woodcut initials. Josse Badius Ascensius added 6 distichs of his own, and a foreword to the reader. Good copy, with the bookplate of Charles Arthur Wynne Finch, and with 16th century ms. notes on both sides of first blank.- (Binding sl. splitting at top and bottom of spine; title and last blank sl. soiled; sl. marginal waterst. on first and last. Renouard, Josse Badius, II, pp. 462; STC French p. 196; Adams G 444.

Contemporary full vellum; manuscript title and decorative design on spine; dark blue edges; title within historiated woodcut border; historiated and foliated initials; elaborate printer's device on last leaf. Date in ink on title; little contemporary marginalia on four leaves; faint water stain in lower margin of few leaves; small tear on front fly-leaf and paste-down. Edition statement from colophon; dedication by A[ulus] Ianus Parrhasius. A very good copy of a scarce work. Adams R587; Brunet IV, 1314; Graesse VI, 109; Renouard III, 211. Michele Riccio was an Italian humanist and historian who was a counsellor to Louis XII at Naples. These historical essays on the rulers of France, Spain, Jerusalem, Naples, Sicily and Hungary were previously published separately in Rome and Milan in 1505 and 1506, respectively. They were also collected by Josse Badius (1462-1535) under the title Compendiosi & veridicis de regibus Christianis fere libelli (Paris, 1507) - Brunet. The humanist Aulus Janus Parrhasius (1470-1522), who wrote the dedication, was well-known for his extensive library of early manuscripts and books. Noted humanist printer, Johann Froben (d. 1527), was active in Basel from 1491-1527. His friendship with Erasmus (c.1469-1536) extended to the latter's work as proofreader for Froben's classical publications, not the least of which was Erasmus' own influential Novum Testamentum, printed in Greek and Latin in 1519. Froben's device of two snakes intertwined with a bird, surrounded by putti, was designed by Hans Holbein the Younger (1497-1543). Holbein later left Basel for London during the Reformation to become court portraitist to Henry VIII.

Il testo del Musaeus è fedelmente tratto dalla precedente edizione aldina in-4 del 1495-1496, compresa la prefazione in greco di Aldo, mentre l'Orfeo è tratto dalla prima e molto rara edizione di Giunta (Firenze 1500) e il poema "de lapidibus" compare qui per la prima volta.

First edition of this collection of 18 treatises. § De vegetabilibus et plantis, first printed in this edition 'is a masterpiece for its independence of treatment, its accuracy and range of detailed description, its freedom from myth, and its innovation in systematic classification. His comparative study of plants extended to all their parts, and his digressions show a remarkable sense of morphology and ecology ... He seems to have been the first to mention spinach in Western literature, the first to note the influence of light and heat on the growth of trees, and the first to establish that sap (which he knew was carried in veins -- like blood vessels, he said, but without a pulse) is tasteless in the root and becomes flavored as it ascends.'

Andrea J. Fulvio
Illustrium imagines
      Iacobus Mazochius, Rome 1517 - 11½ x 16½ cm, later binding (deep red gilt decorated leather spine vellum boards), 117 p., first edition. Fulvio’s book is of great importance as the first printed numismatic book, reproducing Roman coins (from the private collection of the publisher) to mainly depict the rulers of the East- and West-Roman empire and their wives. It marks the beginning of iconography. The book is paged in latin numbers, one for two pages. The 204 woodcut portraits (white on a black background) and the decorated settings are thought to be of the Venetian artist Ugo da Carpi. The images of the emperors are based on real coins, those of the women are considered to be based on phantasy Title page missing, book begins with the dedication to Pope Leo X (2 p.), followed by an introduction by Iacobo Sadoleto ( 3 p.) and 221 pages with decorated setting of which 201 contain medaillons. Apart from the missing title page, the last 3 medaillons (1½ page) are missing plus the 2 page index. The missing pages are present in facsimile. The last 10 medaillons have lost sections at top right and left, fortunately leaving the portraits and the text unaffected. Cover in good condition, binding tight. Still a useful copy of this highly important and rare book. K14
