PANTHEO, Giovanni Agostino
Voarchadumia contra alchimiam: ars distincta ab archimia, et sophia: cum additionibus, proportionibus, numeris et figuris opportunis Ioannis Augustini Panthei Veneti sacerdotis
|
4to, ff. 69; title and f. 2v printed in four colours (yellow, green, red and gold, the gold oxidised), title within a woodcut architectural border printed in black and yellow, two headlines (f. 7r and f. 8v) printed in yellow, with a double-page map of Venice and 11 full-page woodcut illustrations; without the final blank; contemporary marginal annotation in margin of f. 42r and some early underlining; some light soiling, part of fore-edge of title cut away and neatly repaired (not affecting image); old vellum. First edition, first issue of this rare alchemical work, highly unusual for its early use of four-colour printing. !There is an augmented issue with four leaves inserted between the title leaf and A2 - the first a blank, the others numbered 0, 00 and 1' (Mortimer).Pantheo was a Venetian priest who published, in 1518 the alchemical Ars transmutationis metallicae. !Portions of this were reproduced in the Voarchadumia in 1530, but [it] is quite a distinct work and is much enlarged. Pantheus wrote against spurious alchemy and he deals partly with the assay of gold, which is illustrated by drawings of rolling mills, furnaces of various sorts with the accompanying apparatus and a balance and weights, and partly with the chemical preparation of various substances which were made at Venice in his time and were used in the arts. He describes, for example, the manufacture of white lead and of an alloy for mirrors ... Pantheus was a priest of Venice, but seems nevertheless to have been devoted to chemical research. The word Voarchadumia - barbarous, as it has been styled by some writers - is compounded, according to the author himself, of a Chaldee word signifying gold, and of a Hebrew expression meaning "out of two rubies", and he explains it all as equivalent to "gold of two perfect cementations", that is, thoroughly refined' (Ferguson).!It seems probable that, after the publication of [the Ars transmutationis metallicae], someone called to the attention of its author or the papal court or the Venetian government the existence of a papal decretal and a decree of Venice against alchemists. For in 1530 Pantheus brought out with the same printer at Venice a book entitled Voarchadumia ... As [the] title suggests, he now professed to be writing not on alchemy but on Voarchadumia, an art distinct from alchemy. This Voarchadumia he represented as true wisdom, the very opposite of alchemy, a sort of "cabala of metals", handed down from Tubal Cain through the Chaldeans and Indians ... The work opens with prefaces to the doge and to the papal legate. Yet he repeats most of his work of 1518 in the course of the Voarchadumia. The volume also includes woodcuts of alchemical furnaces and apparatus and a bird's-eye view of Venice and its surroundings' (Thorndike, A history of magic and experimental science V, pp. 539-40).In the margin of f. 38r is printed a symbol which is strikingly similar to that used by John Dee in his Monas hieroglyphica. Dee owned and extensively annotated a copy of the Voarchadumia and it seems likely that his symbol, which first appears on the title of the Propaedeumata aphoristica in 1558 and then, most famously, in the Monas hieroglyphica of 1564, is derived from Pantheo's. !For Dee it was a powerful symbol both of creation and of the unity of the sciences' (Oxford DNB).*Caillet 8275; Duveen p. 449; Ferguson II p. 166; Mortimer 354; Neu 3044; [Olschki 4981]; Rosenthal 649; [Sander 5407].

VERVLIET, Hendrik D. L.
The Palaeotypography of the French Renaissance. Selected Papers on Sixteenth-Century Typefaces. Two volumes.
|
Brill Publications, 2008, octavo, cloth in dust jackets. viii, 1-286 pp.; vi, 287-565 pp. First Edition. This collection of thirteen essays examines sixteenth-century type design in France. Typefaces developed during this period were to influence decisively the typography of the centuries which followed, and they continue to influence a great many contemporary typefaces. The papers' common goal is to establish the paternity of the typefaces described and critically to appraise their attributions, many of which have previously been inadequately ascribed. Such an approach will be of interest to type historians and type designers seeking better-documented attributions, and to historians, philologists, and bibliographers, whose study of historical imprints will benefit from more accurate type descriptions. The papers and illustrations focus on the most important letter-cutters of the French Renaissance, including Simon de Colines, Robert Estienne, Claude Garamont, Robert Granjon, Pierre Haultin, and also include a number of minor masters of the period. VOLUME I: Preface; Introduction; Abbreviations and Conventional Signs; Old English and French Names for Body Sizes; Early Sixteenth-Century Parisian Roman Types; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Roman Types by Body Size; Simon de Colines, Punchcutter; 1518–1546 Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Colines’s Types by Letter Family and Size; The Printing Types of the Young Robert I Estienne; 1526–1530; Robert Estienne’s Printing Types; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Estienne’s Types by Family and Body Size; Table 2: Estienne’s Types by Year of First Occurrence; Garamont’s Canons: Roman Type Design in Sixteenth-Century France; The Young Garamont: Roman Types Made in Paris in the 1530s; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Types in Order of First Occurrence; Table 2: Types Classified by Punchcutter; Roman Types by Robert Granjon; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Granjon’s Romans by Date; Table 2: Granjon’s Romans by Body Size; Printing Types of Pierre Haultin; c. 1510–1587; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Haultin’s Typefaces in Order of Date and Place of First Appearance. VOLUME II: Early Paris Italics; 1512–1549; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Types by Body Size; The Italics of Robert Granjon; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Granjon’s Italics by Style; Table 2: Granjon’s Italics by Body Size; Greek Typefaces of the Early French Renaissance: The Predecessors of the Grecs du Roy; Conspectus of Types; Greek Printing Types of the French Renaissance: The ‘Grecs du Roy’ and Their Successors Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Greek Types by Body Size; Table 2: Greek Types by Date of First Appearance; Cyrillic & Oriental Typography in Rome at the End of the Sixteenth Century: An Inquiry into the Later Work of Robert Granjon; 1578–1590; Conspectus of Types; Table 1: Types in Order of First Occurrence; List of Typefaces Cited or Discussed; References; Index.

NILUS OF ANCYRA, St.: PIRCKHEIMER, W.
Beatissi Patris Nili episcopi & martyris theologi antiquiss. Sente[n]tia morales e Greco in Latinum versae; Bilibaldo Pircheimero Norimbergensi interprete.
|
Pamphilus Gegenback, Basel 1518 - Modern wrappers 4to . New edition of Willibald Pirckheimer's (1470-1530) translation of the Sententiae morales of St. Nilus of Ancyra (c. ca. 430), 5th century abbot and ascetic writer, who was one of the many disciples and fervent defenders of St. John Chrysostom (cf. New Cath. Enc. X, p. 470). Willibald was one of the greatest German patrons of scholars and artists of the period as well as being a first rate scholar whose writings and translations were highly regarded. He composed the obituary of his lifelong friend and sometime collaborator Albrech Durer in 1528 (cf. Contemp. of Erasmus, III, p. 90). He dedicated the present work to his sister Klara who "was no exception to the remarkable level of education and culture for which the female members of the pirckheimer family were famous . Willibald dedicated to her his edition of Nilus' Sententiae mroales (Nuremberg: F. Peypus 1516); in the same year he conveyed Klara's greetings to Erasmus" (Contemp. of Erasmus, III, p. 90). The dedicatory letter's date has been changed from 1516 to 1518. OCLC locates only one copy at the Bridwell Library at SMU [16]. Title within woodcut borders, woodcut initials and half-page woodcut at the end of Mary with an angel. Contemporary annotations on the last blank leaf. § BM/STC German 654; Catalogue of valuable printed books from the Broxbourne Library,; 62. [Attributes: Soft Cover]

MASSON (Jean-Papire).
Descriptio Fluminum Galliae qua Francia est.
|
Parisiis, apud Iacobum Quesnel, 1518 (i.e. 1618). in-8. 5ff. portrait hors-texte. 684pp. (i.e. 686). (1f.blanc). 11ff. (1f.blanc). Plein vélin de l'époque. Edition Originale de cette importante description des cours d'eau français, composée par le célèbre historien français Jean Papire Masson (1544-1611) et publiée après sa mort par son frère Jean. "L'auteur ne se borne pas à décrire sèchement le cours des principales rivières (la Loire, la Seine, le Rhône, la Garonne); il étudie en même temps les contrées que celles-ci traversent et les peuples riverains" (Bourgeois et André). "Masson fut un des savants hommes du XVIe siècle qui se sont occupés avec le plus d'ardeur des origines de notre histoire nationale, et qui ont ouvert la voie si glorieusement suivie par les bénédictins. Ses ouvrages, qui roulent presque tous sur la Gaule, sont très recherchés" (Larousse). Belle marque d'imprimeur sur la page de titre, et beau portrait hors-texte de l'auteur gravé par Gaultier. Quelques rousseurs.

Leipzig, Melchior Lotter 1518.. 23 cm. 12 unnumerierte Blatt mit Holzschnitt-Titelbordüre von Heinrich Vogtherr d. Ä. Mod. Halbmaroquin-Band mit goldgeprägtem Rückentitel. - Luther, Titeleinf. 18 - Pflugk-H. / Claus 22 - Schottenl. Bibl. 10919a - VD16 L 4458 - Erste in Deutschland gedruckte Ausgabe mit der Urfassung der 95 Thesen, wahrscheinlich von Luther selbst veranlaßt. Luther sandte die handschriftliche Fassung seiner Thesen zunächst nach Mainz an Erzbischof Albrecht von Brandenburg, der sie an die Kurie nach Rom weiterleitete. Sie wurden dort dem Dominikaner Silvestro Mazzolini aus Priero (genannt Prieras) zur Prüfung übergeben. Dieser verfaßte in drei Tagen das vorliegende Gutachten, in dem er alle 95 Thesen Luthers abdruckte und mit seiner jeweiligen Entgegnung versah. Dieses erschien zuerst in Rom und gelangte bald an Luther, der in zwei Tagen eine scharfe Erwiderung unter dem Titel "Ad dialogum Silvestri Prieratis de potestate papae responsio" schrieb, wie er Spalatin in einem Brief am 21. August 1518 mitteilt (ausführlich in: Köstlin / Kawerau, Luther I, 192ff; Honselmann, Urfassung und Drucke der Ablaßthesen Martin Luthers und ihre Veröffentlichung, S. 51ff und 135ff). Das vorliegende Exemplar trägt im Unterrand des Titels die zeitgenössische Widmung "Consultiss. Patricio Hieronimo Holtzschuher" an den Nürnberger Ratsherrn Hieronymus Holzschuher, damals eine sehr einflußreiche Persönlichkeit.

[Augsburg: Grimm & Wirsung, 1520].pA magnificent sammelband in a handsome contemporary binding of three of Aristotle's chief scientific works. The editions were prepared and translated by John Argyropulus (1416-86), Greek humanist who was a very active promoter of the revival of learning in the West. Born in Constantinople, he was invited to Florence by Cosimo de' Medici, and was there appointed professor of Greek in the university. He left for Rome in 1471 where he continued to teach. He was highly esteemed as a translator of Aristotle. Johann Eck (1486-1543), best known as Luther's greatest opponent, was professor and chancellor at Ingolstadt for thirty years. He is a representative of the scholastic humanists, who were loyal supporters of the Church, while they were also eager for a revival of classical learning, and a new system of education. About 1515, the Duke of Bavaria established a commission to find means for ending the interminable strife between the rival academic parties at the University of Ingolstadt, and entrusted Eck with the preparation of fresh commentaries on Aristotle and Petrus Hispanus. These works became the standard text books of the university. The commentaries were inspired with much of the scientific spirit of the New Learning, but Eck had no sympathy with the revolutionary attitude of the Reformers (see Encyc. Brit.) . Very fine and fresh copies in a most attractive binding. Riley, Aristotle. Texts and Commentaries to 1700 in the University of Pennsylvania Library. A Catalogue, 170, 68, & 55.. First Edition.

AYN NEW KUNSTLICH BUECH.
|
Nurnburg 1518, facsimile by the Scholar Press & the Yushodo Press, London & Tokyo 1980. - Thick octavo, plates . Lettered simulated vellum & grey boards. A superb facsimile. One of only 125 copies issued as part of a highly important set along with 49 similar works. [ Never before sold separately - only previously sold as part of complete sets to major world libraries ]. * the texts in the series HISTORIC ACCOUNTING LITERATURE expound and develop the art of book-keeping in the 350 years after Pacioli's seminal Summa de Arithmetica. They show how patterns and conventions were established, and how the following generations built on them in turn. As this body of knowledge accumulated, it became the framework for commercial dealings. Most of these works were intended for the instruction of students and apprentices, or for the use of book-keepers and merchants. The original copies are in the library of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in London, whose holdings in the fields of book-keeping and accountancy are the finest in the world. Most are of the utmost rarity & extremely fragile. Probably the only opportunity to acquire this text in a superbly produced edition, , whose original has so rarely been offered for sale in useful condition, and probably never will be again.

ANGELUS, Johannes (1463-1512).
Tractat von der Pestilentz Joanni Engel, der Freyen künsten vnd artzney Doctor, auss der leer der Doctorn der artzney vnd Astronomey gezogen.
|
- Kl.-4to. Mit halbseitigem Titelholzschnitt von Hans Weiditz. [11] Bl. Flexibler Pergamentband. (Augsburg, [Sigmund Grimm und Marx Wirsung], 4. November 1518). Erstausgabe. Als einzige vorwiegend medizinische Schrift erschien sechs Jahre nach dem Tod des Arztes, Astrologen, Mathematikers und Schriftstellers Johannes Angelus (auch Engel oder Angeli) dieses äusserst seltene Pest-Traktat in Augsburg. Wie die allermeisten Pestabhandlungen seit der Mitte des 15. Jhs. stellt die Schrift eine Kompilation aus Fragmenten früherer Werke, wie z.B. aus jenem des Bruders Chrysogonus Krapf aus dem Kloster Tegernsee dar. Das Pestregiment gliedert sich in drei Teile: Der erste erklärt die Ursache der Seuche, der zweite führt zehn Merkmale auf, die erkennen lassen, ob jemand an der Pest erkrankt ist und der dritte Abschnitt gibt den Infizierten Anleitung zum richtigen Verhalten. Wie andere Pesttraktate der Zeit bietet auch das vorliegende Pestregiment die sechs Grundbedingungen einer gesundheitsbewahrend-diätetischen Lebensführung: die Beachtung von Licht und Luft, Speise und Trank, Bewegung und Ruhe, Schlafen und Wachen, Füllung und Entleerung sowie Regulierung der Leidenschaften und Zufälle des Gemütes. Der Verfasser war im Jahr 1492 zum ersten Dozenten ('Lector ordinarius') für Mathematik und Astronomie an der Universität von Regensburg ernannt worden, fünf Jahre später wird er als Magister und Angehöriger der Medizinischen Fakultät der Universität Würzburg geführt. Danach praktizierte er einige Zeit in Krems als Arzt um schliesslich, in der Tradition seines Lehrers Johannes Regiomontanus, als Mathematiker und Astronom in Wien zu unterrichten. Der in klarem Abdruck vorliegende, Hans Weiditz zugeschriebene, halbseitige Titelholzschnitt zeigt eine prächtige Darstellung des Aderlasses. Der revulsive (ableitende) Aderlass stellte in der Frühzeit, nebst dem Schröpfen, eine durchaus erfolgreiche Behandlungsmethode gegen die Pestilenz dar, ehe sich dann die durch Autoren wie Heinrich Steinhöwel oder Konrad Schwestermüller propagierten operativen Verfahren durchsetzten. - Minimale Flecken und Bräunung, ein vorzügliches und breitrandiges Exemplar. VD 16, E-1198 (7 Ex.: BSB München, UB Würzburg, PSB Berlin, UB Jena, Bibliothek Otto Schäfer, OeNB Wien und Ratsschulbibliothek Zwickau); Wellcome I, 311; Bethesda National Library of Medicine (Online Kat.), WZ 240 A588t 1518; Waller 2755 (inkomplett); Roloff, Die deutsche Literatur zwischen 1450 und 1620 III, S. 176 und S. 178, Nr. 1.16.01 (weist 10 Exemplare nach); Wickersheimer, Note sur Johannes Engel (Angeli) d'Aichach . , in: Académie Royale de Belgique, Bulletin de la classe des lettres (1928), S. 320f. Nicht in Köhler. First edition of this exceedingly rare tract on the plague, the author's only predominant medical writing published. As most of such tracts it was compiled from other writing on the subject such as that of Fray Chrysogonus Krapf in Tegernsee. The astrologer, physician and writer Johannes Angelus (also Engel or Angeli) had become the first lecturer (Lector ordinarius) in mathematics and astronomy at the new university in Regensburg. Five years later he became a member of the medical faculty in Würzburg. After he had practiced as a physician in Krems Angelus finally teached in the tradition of Johannes Regiomontanus as an astronomer and mathematician in Vienna. In the first of three parts of this tract the author explains the cause and effects of the plague. The second chapter lists ten distinguishing marks, and the third offers instruction to the proper behaviour. The title leaf with a half-page woodcut depicting a blood letting scene by Hans Weiditz, pupil of Albrecht Dürer. - Minimal stains and browning; an excellent copy with wide margi [Attributes: First Edition]

(à la fin:) Impressi Parrhisii Anno domini M.ccccc.xviii Die vero xvi Januarii (Jehan Petit, 16 janvier 1518). in-8. 4ff. 272ff. chiffrés (i.e. 276). Plein veau moucheté, dos lisse orné (fraîche reliure du 18e siècle, infimes traces d'usage). Première Edition donnée par Franciscus de Serris, de ces sermons célèbres du prédicateur dominicain Gabriele Barleta, qui vivait au 15e siècle à Naples. Ses talents d'orateur et l'originalité de ses homélies lui valurent une telle renommée, qu'un proverbe se répandit à cette époque en Italie: "Nescit praedicare qui nescit barlettare" ("Celui qui ne sait prêcher comme Bareleta ne sait pas prêcher"). "Il se rendit célèbre à Naples par ses sermons, dans lesquels il mêlait le burlesque au sacré, citant Virgile après Moïse, plaçant David à côté d'Hercule et commençant une phrase en italien pour la continuer en latin et la finir en grec" (Larousse). Initialement parus en 1497 à Brescia, ces sermons firent l'objet d'un grand nombre d'éditions dans les premières années du 16e siècle. La présente édition est dédiée par Franciscus de Serris à un inquisiteur toulousain, Raymundus Gosinus. Elle fut à nouveau publiée par le même imprimeur en 1527. Impression gothique en deux colonnes, avec la marque de Jehan Petit sur la page de titre. Inscriptions manuscrites sur les gardes et signatures anciennes sur le titre: "Ex. Biblioth. Claudi Rob. Jardel" et "Blendecq". Bel exemplaire finement relié au 18e siècle. Graesse, Trésor de livres rares et précieux, 1, 294: "sermons singuliers et bizarres".

Edition Originale de cette importante description des cours d'eau français, composée par le célèbre historien français Jean Papire Masson (1544-1611) et publiée après sa mort par son frère Jean. "L'auteur ne se borne pas à décrire sèchement le cours des principales rivières (la Loire, la Seine, le Rhône, la Garonne); il étudie en même temps les contrées que celles-ci traversent et les peuples riverains" (Bourgeois et André). "Masson fut un des savants hommes du XVIe siècle qui se sont occupés avec le plus d'ardeur des origines de notre histoire nationale, et qui ont ouvert la voie si glorieusement suivie par les bénédictins. Ses ouvrages, qui roulent presque tous sur la Gaule, sont très recherchés" (Larousse). Belle marque d'imprimeur sur la page de titre, et beau portrait hors-texte de l'auteur gravé par Gaultier.

Testo impresso su due colonne, car. tondo in rosso e nero; titolo in grande car. gotico e istruzioni per la consultazione dell'opera impressi in rosso entro 5 tondi inseriti in bordura a grotteschi; al verso grande ""crisma"" con croce in negativo entro grande arabesco su fondo rosso; colophon in grande car. gotico entro bordura e, al verso, silogr. tonda con 2 angeli che reggono uno scudo vuoto. La stupenda illustrazione del volume comprende inoltre: 15 bordure di 4 legni con ritratti in tondo, e grande capolettera istoriato all'interno; 12 elaborate bordure con vasi e grotteschi, che comprende 5 tondi con calendario di ogni mese e sue peculiarità impressi in rosso; 56 tondi di diametro 15 cm con scene della vita dei Santi e Martiri, inscritti in quadrato con fregi agli ang.; un Giudizio Universale (colorato all'epoca) entro bordura di 4 legni con versi in rosso entro tondi; 5 silogr. di grandi formati diversi (Assunzione e Natività della Vergine, Adorazione dell'Eucarestia, Crocefisso della Scuola di S.Giovanni a Venezia, S.Adriano) e un foglio con 6 legni relativi a S.Apollonia; 124 vignette a larghezza di una colonna, raffig. scene della Bibbia, gran numero di grandi iniziali ornate. Una delle più belle edizioni della raccolta di vite e leggende dei Santi, composta da Jacopo da Varazze (1230-1298) verso il 1266, che conobbe enorme fama, ed ebbe gran numero di edizioni, anche figurate, tra XV e XVI sec. L'editore si è curato, oltre che di fornire le istruzioni per la consultazione sul frontesp., di corredare l'opera di un indice alfabetico, del registro e, fatto assai raro, dell'indicazione degli errori e delle omissioni nella numerazione delle carte. Rara e ricercata edizione volgare figurata, fedele ristampa dell'edizione del 1505 degli stessi tipografi; straordinaria per la ricchezza e la peculiarità dell'illustrazione, nella quale il tondo è tema ricorrente. La sua bellezza è confermata da Essling, che dedica ben 22 pag. di descrizione e riproduz. delle figure.Bell'esemplare, seppur con alcune bordure lievem. rifilate su 2 lati, strappo restaurato a un f. ed un alone nel margine inf. dei primi 8 ff.2o (294 x 195mm.), 2 columns, printed in red and black with part xylographic title, numerous woodcut illustrations (some roundels in frames 155 x 155mm., others smaller 50 x 80mm.), borders and initials (80 x 75mm. and smaller), nineteenth-century old-style blind-stamped calf, red and gilt gauffered edges, first few leaves stained at bottom right-hand corner, some edges close-cropped, shaving woodcut borders, binding slightly rubbed, upper joint weak The second of two editions from this shop (first dated December 1505).Il Cat.Unico censisce un solo esempl., presso la Casanatense, così come un esempl. del 1505, presso la B.Mai di Bergamo.

These are the only editions of Pliny's Epistles that ever issued from the Aldine press......The edition of 1508 [the first edition] is curious from being the first work in which the subscription announces the partnership of Aldus with his father-in-law Asulanus. It is compiled from some MSS. which Mocenigo brought from France to Italy, and which Aldus says are not only very correct, but which one would suppose to be as ancient as the time of Pliny himself".........The edition of of 1518 is merely a reimpression of the first of 1508, with a few typographical errors corrected."

DEL CARRETTO Galeotto
Tempio de Amore del molto magnifico et celeberrimo poeta signor Galeotto marchese Dal Carretto

(In fine:) Mediolani, ex officina Minutiana kalen. Septembris M.D.xviii impensis Ioannis Iacobi & fratrum de Legnano (Milano, 1518), in-8, ff. (124, segn. *2, A-O8, P10), leg. p. perg. rustica coeva, in elegante astuccio mod. m. pelle. Edizione originale, rarissima, di questo componimento teatrale composto verso il 1504 e dedicato a Guglielmo, marchese di Monferrato, presso la cui corte, l'A. si rifugiò dopo che il suo castello di Finale fu raso al suolo dai Genovesi. È un “dramma allegorico” in versi, senza la divisione in atti, che tratta un argomento profano nella forma della sacra rappresentazione, ed che include «altri componimenti come la versione in terza rima della “Tavola di Cebete” e il riassunto delle “Metamorfosi” di Apuleio» (D.B.I). Il piemontese Galeotto Del Carretto (nato nel contado di Acqui poco prima del 1455 e morto nel 1530) è personalità di spicco nell'aristocrazia, nella vita politica e culturale italiana a cavallo dei secoli XV-XVI; fu poeta, scrittore di teatro e storiografo (la sua “Cronica di Monferrato” in ottava rima, rimasta inedita per secoli benché fosse conosciuta e citata, ha visto la luce soltanto nel 1898, per cura di Giorcelli, nella “Rivista di storia della prov. di Alessandria”, VII, pp. 8-107). Di lui il Vallauri, nella sua “Storia della poesia in Piemonte”, parla a lungo e molto bene, dichiarando che “un nostro paesano fu quegli che scrisse nel 1502 la prima tragedia italiana, la Sofonisba” (op. cit. I, p. 71). Bell'esemplare assai puro, a grandi margini, con antica nota di possesso di “Pietro Bertolotti di Bricherasio” alla sguardia anter. (Lievi ingialliture qua e là).

Erschienen : 08.1999 Aus der Reihe : Schriftenreihe der Historischen Kommission bei der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften 57 92,00 Eur[D] Die zahllosen Flug- und Streitschriften der Reformationszeit dienten ebenso der Information wie der Propaganda. Die Religionsparteien wollten auf diesem Wege ihre Glaubensüberzeugungen und theologischen Lehren, ihr Kirchenbild und ihre Programme zur Reform des religiösen und kirchlichen Lebens bekannt machen und unter dem lesekundigen Publikum verbreiten. Ein wichtiges Thema dieser Publizistik war die Konzilsfrage. Reformatorische wie katholische Autoren äußerten sich u.a. zum Konzil als Heilmittel für die Glaubensspaltung und für die reformbedürftige Kirche. Thomas Brockmann hat dieses Thema Konzil in der Flug- und Streitschriftenliteratur der Reformationszeit zum ersten Mal auf breiter Quellengrundlage untersucht. Er beginnt mit der Entstehung der Konzilsdebatte im Streit um Martin Luther 1518/19 und Luthers frühen Stellungnahmen. Es folgt ein systematischer Überblick über die in der Publizistik der Jahre 1520 bis 1563 propagierten Konzilstheologien. Während die katholische Seite die überlieferte Auffassung von der Autorität des Konzils vehement verteidigte, hing diese in reformatorischer Sicht ganz von der Übereinstimmung mit der Heiligen Schrift ab. Hiernach wird in einem historisch-chronologischen Überblick die Entwicklung der publizistischen Konzilsdiskussion im ereignisgeschichtlichen Zusammenhang, mit ihren wechselnden Schwerpunkten und ihren historischen Besonderheiten dargelegt. Das Buch ist ein Beitrag zur Reichs- und zur Kirchengeschichte, aber auch zur Erforschung der Mediengeschichte der Reformationszeit. Der Autor Dr. Thomas Brockmann ist Lehrbeauftragter für Neuere Landesgeschichte an der Universität Düsseldorf.

4to. 54 unn. ll. With large printer's mark on last leaf. XVIII century boards. Ex-dono of Count Leonardo Trissino (a Venetian nobleman and friend of the famous poet Leopardi) from the Italian writer Girolamo Negrini. Some notes in a XVI century hand. An excellent copy. First edition. The first section, contained in the first seven leaves and dealing with vipers, had been published between 1497 and 1500, probably by Aldus. The rest of the book is in its first appearance. Nicolo' Leoniceno (Vicenza 1428 - Ferrara 1524) was a physician and the descendant of a noble family. He studied in Padua and traveled to England before settling again in Italy, first in Padua and then in Ferrara, where he died in old age. The most important contributions of Leoniceno was the establishment of a medical school based on the Greek classics depurated from their Arabic interpretations and superfetations, which led to a system which was, in his opinion, highly inefficient and even dangerous for human life. To do so he revived the Galenic medicine on the original texts, and made Ferrara the main center of Galenic renaissance, teaching to Antonio Musa Brasavola and influencing Giovan Battista De Monte. He published several polemical books against his detractors and a famous tract on the errors occurring in Plinius, where he could demonstrate the lack of criticism shown by this author in several occasions. The present work on snakes contains in a nutshell all what was known on these animals during the first part of the XVI century. Leoniceno collects his information from authors active in science and medicine such as Aristoteles, Hippocrates and Avicenna (Ibn-Sina), but also from different literary sources as Herodotus and Lucan. He checks every fact not against the authority of the ancients, which is often challenged, but rather on the basis of the experience made by himself and his contemporaries. Subjects such as the composition of medicaments where snake poison was an ingredient, the effect of poisoning, the poisoning power of different species, counterpoisons and anatomy of snakes are discussed. The book is introduced by a dedicatory letter to Lucrezia Borgia, in which allusions to her sulfuric fame can be read, but, more simply, a devout homage to the Granduchess of Ferrara in her position of protectress of sciences and medicine. A letter to the Venetian physician Alessandro Agatimero, containing recent observations on the vipers, concludes the book. ? DSB VIII, page 248-250; Adams L-501; Wellcome 3740; Ceresoli 323.

La historia de Alejandro Magno de Quinto Curcio Rufo escrita en un estilo vivo y pintoresco, casi como una novela, fue extraordinariamente popular en la Edad Media. Circuló extensamente en manuscrito y fue traducido a varios idiomas romances. El traductor de la versión en italiano sobre la cual se basa esta edición, Pedro Cándido Decembrio (Pavia 1392 ca. - 1474), fue uno de los más destacados humanistas de principios del siglo xv. Desempeñó importantes cargos políticos en Italia, donde estuvo al servicio del Rey Alfonso de Nápoles y de su sucesor Fernando. Tuvo una estrecha relación con gran número de humanistas de la que ha dejado testimonio en su muy importante epistolario. Toda su vida tuvo relaciones con España, gozando de la amistad del Marqués de Santillana, mereciendo justa fama en la época por sus traducciones al italiano de los clásicos. Escudero dice del impresor Juan Varela de Salamanca (1509-1537) que es "digno rival de Cromberger fue este español, si no en el número, sí en la perfección de sus trabajos tipográficos."
