GRETE HERBAL.
|
London, Peter Treveris, 1526. FIRST EDITION, sm. Folio. ff. 158 of 174 ll. A2, 5, B-Z6, Aa-Bb6, Dd-Ee6, lacking t-p and prelims (6 ll.), 4 ll. from gathering A, and the whole of Cc. Double column black letter, elaborate woodcut initials with flourishes and human and animal figures, some unusually large; 316 c. 6 x 6.5cm woodcut illustrations, mostly of medicinal plants, distillery processes, pharmaceutical equipment and minerals, 4 charming white on black borders depicting the return from the staghunt, or wild men pursued by fire-breathing dragon, wild men also repeated on elaborate naturalist border surrounding Treveris' device on last. Minor stain, mostly marginal to head of a few ll, couple of lower outer corners torn affecting the odd letter, several ll. in gatherings A, T, V, Y & Dd frayed and repaired at foreedge sometimes affecting text, printer's ink a bit smudged on one cut, a little browning and occasional small blemish. A remarkably complete and good copy in C19 vellum over boards, presentation bookplate of the Hartland library, Gloucestershire 1936 on fly, C17 autograph of John Colins in one lower margin, C17 "Thomas Woodruff not his book" "Hertes Tonge" (referring to picture beneath) in upper, extensive bibliographical notes on feps. A substantially complete copy of the first edition of Treveris' herbal, "the most famous of all the early printed herbals" (Rohde, 65), the only important botanical work printed in Henrician England and the first to contain illustrations. Like all illustrated books from the earliest English presses, it is now extremely rare. It was largely based upon Le grant Herbier (Paris: Jacques Nyverd, 1520 - Renouard III, 124); both works owe much to the Herbarius zu Teutsch (Mainz 1485). The Grete Herball contains remedies for everything from melancholy to baldness, invoking God and the Virgin Mary alongside Diana and the Centaurs. It is profoundly utilitarian in approach, and designed to be accessible to a relatively broad public, as may be seen from its publication in English rather than Latin; accordingly copies have always suffered heavy use. The Herball "contains much that is curious, especially in relation to medical matters. Bathing was evidently regarded as a strange fad. … Water drinking seems to have been thought almost equally pernicious" (Arber, Herbalis, 42). The descriptions of less common remedies, such as the lodestone, often incorporate vivid travellers' tales. The author displays pride and integrity in his profession, warning against peddlers of harmful fake remedies. The book contains a glossary, and a self-consciously useful index: "There after followeth a table very utyll and profytable for them that desyre to fynde quyckely a remedy agaynst all maner of dyseases & they be marked by the letters of the A.B.C. in every chapter". "The most famous production of Treveris's press is the Grete herball … to modern eyes one of the most satisfactory examples of early English book illustration. The plants, well drawn in outline with only a touch of shading here and there, decorate the two column folio pages at the same time that they supplement the text" (Hodnett, 63; cf 452-455, Figs. 217, 218). The work, one of the earliest English illustrated books, contained 481 splendid small illustrations, the record for an English press. As well as depictions of the plants discussed - some of which, such as the date palm, were presumably little known in England - there also appear illustrations of such activities as examining a patient, grinding pharmaceutical products and operating a lime kiln. STC 13176 (Bodleian, NLS & Yale copies imperfect); Lowndes III, 1047; Wellcome I, 3114; Ames III, 32-33; Henrey 15-18; Arber, Herbals, 40-45; Rohde, The Old English Herbals, 65-74, and cat. no. 59 "complete copies are extremely rare" (1925).

Venedig, Giovanni Antonio & fratelli de Sabbio, 1526. - Zweite Ausgabe des erfolgreichen, erstmals 1525 erschienenen und mehrfach nachgedruckten Hauptwerks von Mario Equicola (ca. 1470-1525), einem Humanisten und Schriftsteller am Hof von Mantua, der Isabella d'Este sehr nahestand. In diesem umfangreichen philosophischen Liebestraktat folgt er weitgehend der neuplatonischen Lehre Marsilio Ficinos, bei dem Equicola noch in Florenz gehört hat. Das in neuerer Zeit wiederentdeckte Original-Manuskript – vom Autor selbst aus dem Lateinischen seiner ersten Fassung ins Italienische übersetzt – wurde um 1495-96 in Florenz verfasst. Unter den sechs Büchern ist das erste von besonderem Interesse, da Equicola verschiedene Theorien anderer Autoren zum Thema diskutiert und dabei, neben den antiken Autoritäten, auch neueren Dichtern wie Dante, Petrarca, Boccaccio, Jean de Meung, Bembo u. a. großes Gewicht gibt, sowie Passagen in Vers und Prosa zitiert. Überhaupt gilt er als einer der ersten Humanisten, die der neueren volkssprachlichen Literatur Aufmerksamkeit und Bewunderung schenken. Was etwa die Rolle der Frau angeht, stellt Equicola die Troubadoure über die antiken Elegiker, die zu wenig Respekt vor dem schönen Geschlecht gezeigt hätten. Das ganze Werk hat eher essayistischen Charakter und zeigt, dass dem Autor die Dichter näher standen als etwa die strenge aristotelische Philosophie der Universitäten. Entsprechend erfuhr der Traktat auch wegen seiner unklaren Struktur und Gedankenfolge scharfe Kritik von akademischer Seite. Beim lesenden Publikum jedoch war die Aufnahme offenbar sehr günstig, wie mehrere Nachdrucke und auch Übersetzungen zeigen. – Wenig gebräunt, einige alte Anmerkungen. Oben knapp beschnitten, teils mit Verlust der Seitenüberschrift, gelegentlich oberste Textzeile angeschnitten. – Vgl. Gamba 1377, Brunet II 1034, Graesse IV 293 u. S. Kolsky. Mario Equicola: The Real Courtier, Genf 1991.

FAMILIARIUM COLLOQUIORUM OPUS
|
ut postremum a Frobenio est editum, ipsius auctoris manu recognitum: doctissimis etiam scholys nuncrecens illustratum. Brevis eiusdem auctoris vita. Adiectorerum & verborum memorabilium indice locupletissimo. Pp. [xvi]+784+[16](brief life of Erasmus, plus index), large printer's device on title page, a few small decorative initials; small 8vo; contemporary stained pigskin, plain spine with raised bands, the boards with decorative blind stamped panels and central emblematic image with captions (image and text too rubbed to identify), piece chipped from centre fore-edge where a clasp would originally have been, corners worn; all edges stained dark green, with an early blind tooled decorative pattern featuring small birds perched on floral sprays (in a style similar to gauffering, but with the edges coloured rather than gilt); lacking the free endpapers, inked ownership inscription at head of upper pastedown above a much later bookplate, hinges cracking, the outer leaves neatly reinserted onto a later (but not modern) stub, lacking a section of the title page extending from the bottom fore-corner to the edge of the printing details (encompassing the date), with a neat paper repair to restore the page size and the date inserted almost illegibly by hand, occasional early marginalia and underlining, minor printing error affecting the last couple of lines of text p. 723(recto of sig. Aaa2), a few small worm holes at end (mainly to margins, but on the last few leaves slightly affecting one letter of text), some light marginal waterstains, scattered light foxing and soiling; Petrum Horst, Coloniae Agrippinae (Cologne), [1526?]. *The manuscript date on the title page is not clear, but the Epistle at the end is dated 1526. This is an early Cologne edition ['following Froben'] of the Colloquies of Desiderius Erasmus (1469-1536), the Dutch priest and humanist considered the greatest European scholar of his age. It includes a brief life of the author. Erasmus' Familiar Colloquies grew from a small collection of phrases and dialogue, written in Paris at the end of the fifteenth century to help his private pupils improve their command of Latin. Originally published by Johann Froben (c. 1460-1527), the celebrated printer and publisher at Basel who collaborated with Erasmus on numerous projects, the text was revised by Erasmus several times over the next few years. In its final state (1526) the original collection of phrases was expanded into 'conversation pieces in which all the topics of the day are discussed with a freedom which ensured their popularity. Later in the century and up to the eighteenth century they were a set book in schools, and there are lines in Shakespeare which directly recall Erasmus's words.' [Printing and the Mind of Man, 53]. The printer's device of Peter Horst on the title page features Geryon (or Geryones), the unconquerable giant with three heads, and the motto Concordia insuperabilis ['concord is insuperable'].

per B. Bonnyn o Jean Frellon. sumptib. de Giuncta,, (Lugduni), 1526 - In-8° (175x125mm), cc. 127. Affascinante legatura della prima metà del Cinquecento in pieno vitello marrone con schema di decorazione impresso a secco ai piatti (fasce verticali parallele giustapposte con motivi speculari separate da filetti e delimitate da duplice cornice ornamentale) riconducibile allo stile "Gril de St. Laurent", o "griglia di San Lorenzo", tipica delle legature francesi dell'epoca. Dorso a tre nervi con due decori floreali impressi a secco. Frontespizio in rosso e nero racchiuso entro elegante cornice xilografica con putti, anfore, festoni, etc., ed il giglio giuntino impresso in rosso; iniziali xilografiche animate. Testo bicolonne incarattere gotico. Restauro conservativo abilmente eseguito al dorso del volume e, parzialmente, al piatto anteriore. Ottimo esemplare. Rara impressione cinquecentesca lionese di quest'opera di storia ecclesiastica di Epifanio Scolastico (monaco di origine greca le cui vicende biografiche rimangono oscure) a lungo erroneamente ascritta a Cassiodoro (l'attribuzione all'autore della Historia Gothorum permane nella presente edizione lionese). I dati tipografici (Lugduni, per Benedictum Bonnyn o Jean Frellon, sumptibus Iacobi q. Francisci de Giuncta) sono ricavati dal Panzer. L'opera consiste in una traduzione latina, compendiata in 12 libri, di varie fonti di storia protocristiana come le opere di Socrate di Costantinopoli (o Socrate Scolastico, Costantinopoli, 380 ca.-ivi, 440 ca.), di Sozomeno di Betelia e di Teodoreto di Ciro, l'ultimo grande teologo cristiano della Scuola di Antiochia. L'opera è rilevante nella storia della cultura per il fatto d'esser stata per l'uomo del Medioevo l'unico tramite conoscitivo della storia ecclesiastica dal Concilio di Nicea del 325 sino al 439. Adams, C-872 (con perpetuazione dell'attribuzione a Cassiodoro). Panzer, IX, p. 142, n. 350. Tricou, Bibliographie lyonnaise, p. 121. Baudrier, VI, pp. 122, 157. Pettas, A sixteenth-century Spanish bookstore: the inventory of Juan de Junta, Philadelphia, 1995, n. 364. Manca a STC French Books. Tre copie censite in biblioteche pubbliche italiane, di cui una mutila. Per la tipologia legatoria, Macchi, Dizionario., p. 215.

in aedibus Aldi, et Andreae Asulani soceri , Venetiis, 1526 - 1527. - in-4 (31 x 22 cm - 12.2 x 8.7 inches), 81ff., [1] f., 1436 col., [15] f. (sign. a-z8, A-Y,8 Z,6 Aa 8), end 18 century quater parchment with a covering glued patterns paper signed by the French bookbinder living in Parma (Louis Antoine Laferte death in 1790), some wears on the parchment and on the paper covering, flat spined with gilt lettered beige morocco label.Third edition given by the Aldes in Venice of this work of Niccolo Perotti (1429 - 1421). The title of the book 'Cornucopiae' [Horn of abundance], sive linguae Latinae, evokes one of the titles mentioned by Aulus-Gellius - the magical horn of Amathea. ' This work, one of the most important of those left by Perotti, is not a dictionary, as the title suggests it, but a comment on the book of Spectacles and the first Epigrams of Martial. It appears that Perotti had given up finishing the explanation of a work so full of obscenities and that he did not intend his work for the public. It was Pirro Perotti, his nephew, who made it print in Venice in 1489, in-fol., with additions and a foreword which contains some rather interesting details. The explanation of the licentious passages belongs only to the editor, who acknowledge it. This first edition is very rare; but the book-lover looks more for the different editions printed by the Aldes presses in Venice : 1499,1513 and 1526, in fol.' (Biographie universelle ancienne et moderne T.32). The first colophon folio marked k8 indicates: May 1526 and second folio marked Aa 8 indicates: March 1527. Marks of the printer on title and on the back of the colophons. Traces of the passage of a worm on the pastedowns and on title.

in aedibus Aldi, et Andreae Asulani soceri , Venetiis, 1526 - 1527. in-4 (31 x 22 cm), 81ff., [1] f., 1436 col., [15] f. (sign. a-z8, A-Y,8 Z,6 Aa 8), demi parchemin de la fin du 18e siècle avec papier à la colle signé par le relieur d'origine française installé à Parme (Louis Antoine Laferte mort en1790), quelques usures au parchemin et aux papiers des plats, dos lisse, pièce de titre en veau beige. Troisième édition donnée par les Aldes de cette oeuvre de Niccolo Perotti (1429 - 1421). Le titre du livre Cornucopiae [Corne d'abondance], sive linguae Latinae, évoque l'un des titres cités par Aulu-Gelle - la Corne magique d'Amathée. 'Cet ouvrage, le plus important de ceux qu'a laissés Perotti, n'est pas un dictionnaire, comme on pourrait le croire d'après le titre, mais un commentaire sur le livre des Spectacles et le premier des Epigrammes de Martial. Il paraît que Perotti avait renoncé à terminer l'explication d'un poète si rempli d'obscénités et qu'il ne destinait point son travail au public. Ce fut Pirro Perotti, son neveu, qui le fit imprimer à Venise en 1489, in-fol., avec des additions et une préface qui contient quelques détails assez intéressants. L'explication des passages licencieux appartient uniquement à l'éditeur, qui en convient lui-même. Cette première édition est très rare ; mais les curieux recherchent davantage celles qui sont sorties des presses des Aldes de Venise, 1499, 1513 et 1526, in fol.' (Biographie universelle ancienne et moderne T.32). Le premier colophon folio k8 indique : Mai 1526 et le second folio Aa 8 indique: Mars 1527. Marque de l'imprimeur au titre et au verso des colophons. Traces du passage d'un ver aux verso des plats et des pages de gardes. Petite attaque d'un ver aux 6 premiers feuillets avec perte de quelques lettres mais sans gravité. Brunissures à quelques feuillets de l'index et petite déchirure sans perte en haut d'un des feuillets de celui-ci. Quelques pâles mouillures dans les marges ça et là. De la Bibliothèque du Comte Niccolo [Ghisilardi] Fava daté de 1786 : Inscription d'appartenance manuscrite sur le premier contreplat (Ex Biblioth: Niccolai Comitis Fava.) et initiales du comte au bas du titre. Gloses manuscrites en italien au bas du dernier feuillet. Belle reliure avec le papier signé par le relieur de la bibliothèque Royale à Parme, Louis Antoine Laferte. A son sujet voir Silvana Gorreri ' Louis-Antoine Laferté : legatore francese in Parma', in Rara volumina, Rivista di studi sull' editoria di pregio e il libro illustrato, 2/1994, M.P. Fazzi editore, Lucca. Référence bibliographique à propos de cette édition de Perotti voir Adams P-725. ; Renouard (Alde) p. 180 n°9.

Andreas Cratander 2nd Edition tandem per m. Fabiu Rhauen natem, Gulielmum Copum Basiliensem, Nicolaum Leonicenu, & Andream Brentium, uiros doctissimos Latinitate donata, ac iamprima in lucem aedita: quo reuera humano gene rinihil fieri potuit falubrius. [lii], 492, [2], title and page one within metal cut border by Jakob Faber after Hans Holbein the younger. The margins contain notes in various ancient hands, as well as some old water staining, but still an attractive copy in an old specked calf with a . Title page possibly supplied from another copy. The 2nd latin edition of the works, and the first printed north of the Alps. Although generally based on the first Latinedition , prepared by Fabio Calvio, and printed at Rome in 1525, this Basel edition is textually more complete. The tract De hominis natura has been added in the translation of Andrea Brentio of Padua, as have Aphorisms in the translation of Niccolo Leoniceno, one of the famous Italian's most important works, and De ratione victus in morbus acutis and Praesagiorum liber in the translation of Wilhelm Copus. 'Hippocrates first established an empirical system of medicine based on a combination of bedside experience and a collation of the many individual data which then formed the basis of clinical teaching. The clinical descriptions of fevers, phthisis, puerperal convulsions, epilepsy and other disorders have remained classics and no such records were kept again for over a thousand years. 'The treatise on surgery includes treatment of dislocations and fractures, trephining the skull, descriptions of surgical instruments, rules on public health and diagnosis, a famous work on the brain, on the theory of the four humours, and many others. Laennec specifically acknowledges his debt to the Hippocatic writings in relation to his invention of the stethoscope. The most celebrated section of all is probably the "Aphorisms". 'The ideal of the humane and learned physician originates with Hippocates, and the "Hippocratic Oath" still remains the classic expression of the duties, ethics and moral standards of the medical profession' (Printing and the Mind of Man).

GRETE HERBAL.
|
- London, Peter Treveris, 1526. FIRST EDITION, sm. Folio. ff. 158 of 174 ll. A2, 5, B-Z6, Aa-Bb6, Dd-Ee6, lacking t-p and prelims (6 ll.), 4 ll. from gathering A, and the whole of Cc. Double column black letter, elaborate woodcut initials with flourishes and human and animal figures, some unusually large; 316 c. 6 x 6.5cm woodcut illustrations, mostly of medicinal plants, distillery processes, pharmaceutical equipment and minerals, 4 charming white on black borders depicting the return from the staghunt, or wild men pursued by fire-breathing dragon, wild men also repeated on elaborate naturalist border surrounding Treveris' device on last. Minor stain, mostly marginal to head of a few ll, couple of lower outer corners torn affecting the odd letter, several ll. in gatherings A, T, V, Y & Dd frayed and repaired at foreedge sometimes affecting text, printer's ink a bit smudged on one cut, a little browning and occasional small blemish. A remarkably complete and good copy in C19 vellum over boards, presentation bookplate of the Hartland library, Gloucestershire 1936 on fly, C17 autograph of John Colins in one lower margin, C17 "Thomas Woodruff not his book" "Hertes Tonge" (referring to picture beneath) in upper, extensive bibliographical notes on feps. A substantially complete copy of the first edition of Treveris' herbal, "the most famous of all the early printed herbals" (Rohde, 65), the only important botanical work printed in Henrician England and the first to contain illustrations. Like all illustrated books from the earliest English presses, it is now extremely rare. It was largely based upon Le grant Herbier (Paris: Jacques Nyverd, 1520 - Renouard III, 124); both works owe much to the Herbarius zu Teutsch (Mainz 1485). The Grete Herball contains remedies for everything from melancholy to baldness, invoking God and the Virgin Mary alongside Diana and the Centaurs. It is profoundly utilitarian in approach, and designed to be accessible to a relatively broad public, as may be seen from its publication in English rather than Latin; accordingly copies have always suffered heavy use. The Herball "contains much that is curious, especially in relation to medical matters. Bathing was evidently regarded as a strange fad. Water drinking seems to have been thought almost equally pernicious" (Arber, Herbalis, 42). The descriptions of less common remedies, such as the lodestone, often incorporate vivid travellers' tales. The author displays pride and integrity in his profession, warning against peddlers of harmful fake remedies. The book contains a glossary, and a self-consciously useful index: "There after followeth a table very utyll and profytable for them that desyre to fynde quyckely a remedy agaynst all maner of dyseases & they be marked by the letters of the A.B.C. in every chapter"."The most famous production of Treveris's press is the Grete herball to modern eyes one of the most satisfactory examples of early English book illustration. The plants, well drawn in outline with only a touch of shading here and there, decorate the two column folio pages at the same time that they supplement the text" (Hodnett, 63; cf 452-455, Figs. 217, 218). The work, one of the earliest English illustrated books, contained 481 splendid small illustrations, the record for an English press. As well as depictions of the plants discussed - some of which, such as the date palm, were presumably little known in England - there also appear illustrations of such activities as examining a patient, grinding pharmaceutical products and operating a lime kiln. STC 13176 (Bodleian, NLS & Yale copies imperfect); Lowndes III, 1047; Wellcome I, 3114; Ames III, 32-33; Henrey 15-18; Arber, Herbals, 40-45; Rohde, The Old English Herbals, 65-74, and cat. no. 59 "complete copies are extremely rare" (1925).

Plinii opus, summa diligentia Collectum. Petrus Grationopolitanus Plinian[a]e hystori[a]e ingenuis cultoribus. 72 h. y 22 h. de índice (sign. A6, B8-I8, K4, a6, b8-c8).

Es la edición comentada por Ermolao Bárbaro (1454-1493), quien estableció con las Castigationes Plinianiae (1472) un lenguaje especializado de las ciencias naturales y de la crítica textual científica, hecho que dio una nueva visión más crítica y rigurosa de los textos de la antigüedad. Su labor fue también decisiva en la difusión de la obra de Aristóteles y las ciencias entre los humanistas. Aunque no se indique en el título, se añaden las observaciones de Johannes Camers (1447-1546) profesor en Viena, responsable de la publicación en 1514 de la Historia natural de Plinio. Al fin, el índice fue realizado por Petrus Gratianopolitanus. En el colofón de la primera parte se indica que la obra fue impresa por Nicolas Savetier: "Absolutum est hoc Plinii aureum opus, in alma Parisiorum academia, solertia ac industria Nicolai Savetier calcographi non poenitendi, In vico carmelitaru[m] habita[n]tis sub intersignio hois silvestris.

Petit" y su marca tipográfica grabadas en la primera portada y en la segunda en la parte inferior lleva las siglas "N. S.", es decir de Nicolas Savetier. Y en el colofón de la segunda parte reza: "Repertorium in materiarum plinianam Sylvam, editum per dominum Petrum Cratiano/politanum..../per Nicolas Savetier... Anno virginei partus 1526 sub finem mensis Octobris". Ciencias naturales. Libros antiguos anteriores a 1830

[ Bible in English ]
[Wycliffite New Testament, in Middle English, Illuminated Manuscript on vellum.]
|
London: Oxford or environs, ca. A.D. 1390 The Wycliffe Bible's supreme importance is that it is the first complete translation of the Bible into English and in a fundamental and essential way is the precursor of the Tyndale New Testament (1526), the Coverdale Bible (1535), the "Matthew's" Bible (1537), the "Great" Bible (1539), the Geneva Bible (1560), and the King James Bible (1611). Manuscript Wycliffite Bibles very rarely appear on the market, and very few exist in private hands. Original, near contemporary (just slightly posterior), fifteenth-century Oxford binding of dark brown tooled and stamped leather over wooden boards, triple fillet framing foliate rectangular bars, five large floral tools center and corners of inside frame. Some natural holes written around. Thirty-one gatherings, usually of twelve folios. Missing two folios (between ff. 247 and 248 and between ff. 333 and 334: a portion of Prologue and Chapter One of Thessalonians and a portion of Chapter One of Apocalypse), else complete. A quarter-page of inserted text between ff. 130 and 131. Catchwords in bottom margin under inside column in same ink as text and surrounded in sketchy frames. Corrections in brown ink in a contemporary hand. Marginal indications for readings in red ink with reference system of small triple dot symbol, headings in brown ink with blue paragraph marks and red pen flourishes, chapter numbers in brown ink with a red paragraph mark, one-line initials in blue ink outlined in red, two-line initials in blue ink with red pen flourishes for chapters and prologues, two- to four-line initials with marginal flourishing. Attractive three-line gold initials with purple and green vine sprays introducing the prologues to the four Gospels (ff. 1, 46v, 77v, 131v). The book's first binding. Brass clasps, which originally held leather straps, now missing. Offsets of fifteenth-century script and decoration on front and back boards from pastedowns now removed. Some professional modern restoration and replacement of perished leather. Overall about 163 x 113mm. Since the translation of the Bible into English was illegal from 1401 until 1535, individuals who possessed Wycliffe Bibles risked trials for heresy. To have an ownership inscription from the original owner is truly remarkable, as very few owners would dare to leave an identifying mark in their Bible. These features, as well as its previously unrecorded text, make the copy at hand an exceptionally important example. Further, this Bible has recently been identified as the personal English Bible of one of England's most famous martyrs, Richard Hunne. Hunne's lawsuits against the papist clergy of England resulted in his murder at Lollard's Tower. His posthumous trials became a cause celebre for British reformers, and emboldened King Henry VIII in his clashes with Rome. This specific Bible is mentioned in the depositions of these famous and important trials. It is likely that this Bible is the single most significant symbol of the Protestant movement in England in private hands.

1526 - 16th C. No. printing details but According to Carl Gollner (Turcica: Die europaischen Turkendrucke des XVI. Jahrhunderts), only one copy recorded, printed in 1526. 12mo. One title leaf and 17 ff (together 36 pp) in old German. (Gollner: VD 16 no. 1881). This book is a propaganda against the Ottomans and seems that it deals with: how the German Reich should deal, i.e. defend itself against the Turks, discussing military measures that should be taken against the turks and how the costs of these military measures should be shared between the different social groups of the German society, defense of the christian region against the turks. But the contents is mainly about who should be made to contribute to the costs of this military action(s). The christian church, the vatikan, the different political states of germany and the different social groups in germany and what part of the costs these different group should take. Very good, 19th c. marbled cover. Ex-library (small marginal tow stamps ). [Attributes: Hard Cover]

HIPPOCRATES.
|
Venice, Aldine Press, May 1526. A FINE AND FRESH COPY OF THE EDITIO PRINCEPS of the Hippocratic corpus, a collection of texts assembled in the third century B.C., including the Hippocratic Oath and many of the foundation texts of western medicine, traditionally attributed to the legendary physician and teacher Hippocrates of Cos. 'It is uncertain which of them, if any, are directly connected with the historical physician Hippocrates of Cos, who flourished in the latter half of the fifth century B.C. Through the writings attributed to him Hippocrates is credited with developing the first system of empirical medicine based on clinical experience, and the Hippocratic Oath has long been regarded as expressing the fundamental ethical and moral standards of the medical profession' (Grolier, Medicine p. 3). The text was edited by Francesco Torresani, using a fifteenth-century manuscript now in Paris (BNF MS gr. 2141), with corrections provided by a second manuscript which belonged to Cardinal Bessarion (Venice, Bibliotheca Marciana MS gr. 269). This edition, comprising 59 works, includes some that were not included in the Latin translation by Marco Fabio Calvo published the previous year in Rome. 'The Aldine Greek edition of Hippocrates marked a significant advance over Calvus's Latin translation. As Franciscus Asulanus [Francesco Torresani] pointed out in his notice to the reader, it repaired a considerable number of accidental omissions and one long repetition that Calvus ... made because he followed only one manuscript. Moreover, by presenting the original text, it laid the necessary foundation for all further philological and medical study of the corpus' (ibid).Adams H563; Durling 2316; Grolier, Medicine 1B; Stillwell 405 (with a detailed listing of contents) and 656; Norman 1077; Osler 142; Wellcome 3173.

Juvenilia

DROZ - 9782600012225 Livre usage a l'etat de neuf / Used book as new condition Edition critique, traduction, annotation et commentaire par Virginie Leroux Connu comme orateur de la cour papale, Marc-Antoine Muret (1526-1585) fut aussi un pédagogue et un philologue réputé. Publiés en 1552, à une époque où le jeune homme fréquentait les poètes de la Pléiade, ses Juvenilia précédèrent de peu son Commentaire des Amours de Ronsard. Le recueil comprend une tragédie, Julius Caesar, dix élégies, deux satires, cent sept épigrammes, trois épîtres et six odes qui illustrent les préoccupations des arts poétiques contemporains et reflètent les aspirations de la nouvelle génération poétique. Muret exhibe sa virtuosité et son ingéniosité, mais s’inscrit aussi dans le débat sur l’éthique du pouvoir et répond aux exigences morales de l’idéal éducatif humaniste. Virginie Leroux donne une édition critique du recueil, annotée et accompagnée d’une traduction française, ainsi qu’un commentaire qui, genre par genre, identifie les sources antiques et les modèles théoriques. Elle analyse l’influence de l’émulation avec les contemporains et examine les enjeux polémiques induits par l’appartenance à une communauté poétique. ###############################################################################################################################################################################################################################################################

Leaf size and condition: 310 x 215mm. Prelims lightly soiled; minor marginal waterstains on a few leaves. A fresh clean copy. Binding: Contemporary vellum boards, remains of 4 ties. Lower spine compartment defective, spine ends and board edges worn. Provenance and annotation: Inscription on terminal blank apparently recording the birth day in August 1545 of 'Pomponio' (transcribed below); Walter Pagel (1896--1983), signature, undated; B. E. J. Pagel (1930--2007). References: EDIT16 CNCE 29302. Later edition (first 1472). This edition appears to be a reprint of the Venice, 1521 edition. There were at least 6 fifteenth-century and 13 sixteenth-century editions. This edition has corrections and annotations by Symphorian Champier, introduced in the Giunta edition of 1521. § 'In his Conciliator, d'Abano undertook a superb synthetic program: the reconciliation of medicine with philosophy. In this he states 120 questions that give rise to as many controversies between physicians and philosophers ... D'Abano maintained more or less that "the art of medicine must not consider only things that can be seen and felt." Hence he possessed a good knowledge of anatomy; he affirmed, in opposition to the authority of Aristotle (who thought the nerves originated in the heart) that the center of all sensation and motion resides in the brain. His notions of the central nervous system are probably derived from direct visualization. According to d'Abano, the doctor is the symbol of the zealous servant and the collaborator of nature ... [He] must be free in his reasoning and must have no ties with scholastic authorities. Such ideas imply a revolt against established and wearisome tradition: they prepare for the rupture with the past and indicate a new path for scientific progress. D'Abano's voice was one of those that, at the dawn of humanism, announced the beginning of a scientific revival.' (Loris Premuda, DSB, 1:4). Pietro d'Abano studied at Padua; he lived for a time in Constantinople before going to Paris around 1300 where he attended the University and perhaps taught, and composed the Conciliator. It was his most famous work, for which he was often called Petrus Conciliator. In 1307 he returned to Padua and taught philosophy and medicine for several years. This edition, apparently reprinted from the 1521 edition, contains also Petrus Cararius (d. 1506), De venenis ad tempus and Symphorien Champier's additions and corrections to d'Abano's text. The woodcut of two male figures showing the muscles is similar to an image used by Berengario in his Commentaria (1521) but the two are independent. The image was not in the first edition of 1472 but first appeared in the Venice 1496 edition (Sarton p. 440). This very good copy has no contemporary annotations in the text, but a rather delightful inscription in the final blank leaf recording the birth of Pomponio, no doubt the owner's son, after 12 hours of labour: 'Pomponio nacque alli sei d'Agosto 1545 de giobbia alla fine de dodici hore in bona hora et in bon ponto sia nato.' (Pomponio was born on the 6th of August, 1545, of Giobbia, at the end of 12 hours in a good hour and in a good point [conjunction?] may he be born.) Literature: Sarton III, 439--446; Thorndike, II, pp. 874--913 and 919.

HUGH OF ST. VICTOR.
[Opera].
|
Paris, Badius Ascensius, 1526. 1526 3 vols., folio, ff. [26], 409; [24], 401; [16] 447, roman letter in double columns; titles with Badius' four-part title border, with crowned dolphins and a medallion of a scholar in the upper piece, two Amazons on horseback in the lower piece, military trophies in the side-pieces, Badius' "Prelum Ascensianum" device in the centre; woodcut criblé initials, two full-page diagrams in volume II; an excellent copy in late 16th century vellum lettered in manuscript. First collected edition of the works of Hugh of St. Victor (1096-1141), including many pieces printed for the first time. It includes his masterwork, the De sacramentis Christianae fidei, "the first attempt on the grand scale - for Abelard's almost contemporary Theologia is a scantier outline - to give a really comprehensive view of theology in all its branches" (David Knowles), his scriptural commentaries and mystical works, including the De arca Noe morali and De arca Noe mystica, and his philosophical and scientific works, the Didascalicon in particular, in which Hugh sets forth a new division of knowledge."According to Hugh, philosophy encompasses four parts: theorica, practica (that is, moral philosophy), mechanica, and logica. Theorica in turn is divided into theologia, mathematica, and physica, or physiologia. The Didascalicon says little about physica, limiting itself to indicating that it is the science of nature and that it examines the causes of things in their effects and their effects in their causes. Hugh lingers a great deal longer on mathematics, to which he gives a preponderant place; it is indispensable to the knowledge of physics and ought to be studied before the latter ... The classification of the sciences in the Didascalicon gives a place not only to theorica,, but to mechanica as well, that is, to the mechanical arts (the arts of clothing, armament, navigation, agriculture, hunting, medicine, and the theatre). Hugh was thus the first to raise technology to the dignity of science. In this regard he was the first of a great number of the authors of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries" (DSB).Renouard II pp. 520-23.

Poco si sa della vera identita' dell'autore (da taluni, compreso il Sander I, p. 298, confuso con Antonio Caracciolo o Marcantonio Epicuro), tant'e' che il D'Ancona (Origini del teatro italiano, II, p. 100) afferma che il nostro "aspetta ancora chi tragga dall'oblio il suo nome e le sue opere, un giorno celebratissime" e, in fondo alla nota 2 della stessa pagina, conclude: "Dalle rime del Notturno sembrerebbe potersi rilevare che fu soldato al servizio di Venezia". Ottimo esempl. (insignificante antico timbro sul tit.). Manca a Clubb, BMC, Sanesi, Soleinne, Rasi ecc. Allacci 387. Regenstein 434 e Adams N-356 registrano l'ediz. 1531.

EPICURO MARCANTONIO
DIALOGO DI TRE CIECHI. (IN FINE:) VINEGIA, PER GIOVANNI ANTONIO ET FRATELLI DA SABBIO, 1526,
|
in-8, ff. (23, mancando lult. f. bianco, segn. A-F4), leg. mod. p. perg. antica flessibile. Titolo racchiuso da bordura silografica figurata a motivo archiettonico, con impresa tipogr., la quale e' ripetuta in fine; testo in car. corsivo. Prima edizione della Cecaria, di estrema rarita'; infatti ledizione del 1525 del medesimo stampatore, citata da Salvioli, Gamba e Brunet, non esiste; nessun esempl. con data 1525 figura in biblioteche italiane o straniere, ne' e' mai passato in vendita, ne' e' citato da Sander ed Allacci, e soprattutto dai recenti Annali dei Nicolini di L. Carpane', in Il mestiere de le stamperie de i libri, a cura di E.Sandal. Al verso dellultimo foglio, sotto il colophon, e' riportato il privilegio della Signoria di Vinegia per anni dieci. Il titolo, nelle edizioni successive alle prime due dei Da Sabbio, sara' mutato in quello di Cecaria. Vi figurano quattro personaggi: il Vecchio, il Geloso, il Terzo (ciechi) e la Guida. Composizione drammatica di grande successo allepoca, in forma dialogo in versi di vario metro, assai leggiadri (Salvioli), senza divisione di atti ne' di scene, che, secondo il Crescimbeni, sarebbe la prima poesia drammatica a portare il nome di tragicommedia nelle edizioni posteriori. Alcune edizioni della Cecaria portano come nome dellautore Antonio Epicuro Caracciolo o Epicuro Napolitano, e questi nomi hanno generato molti dei problemi di identificazione dellautore. Alcuni lo hanno confuso con il contemporaneo Pietro Antonio Caracciolo e con il Notturno Napoletano, mentre altri hanno ritenuto che il napolitano del titolo indicasse il luogo di nascita del suo autore' (Diz. Biogr. It. XLIII, pp. 19-21). Nacque in Abruzzo e visse a Napoli (1472-1555), contemporaneo di Sannazzaro, Pontano e Tansillo; fu commediografo e poeta doccasione, uomo faceto e buon compagno, di umor lieto e sollazzevole, e ne suoi costumi alquanto libero. Ottimo esempl. (il frontesp. leggermente rifilato in alto). Carpane', Annali, p. 146, n.14. Durin, Edizioni dei Niccolini (1521-1601), n. 57. Allacci 174. Sander I, 1658. Salvioli 701-2.

Erasmi (D. Roterodami), Erasmus (Desiderius)
FAMILIARIUM COLLOQUIORUM OPUS

ut postremum a Frobenio est editum, ipsius auctoris manu recognitum: doctissimis etiam scholys nuncrecens illustratum. Brevis eiusdem auctoris vita. Adiectorerum & verborum memorabilium indice locupletissimo. Pp. [xvi]+784+[16](brief life of Erasmus, plus index), large printer's device on title page, a few small decorative initials; small 8vo; contemporary stained pigskin, plain spine with raised bands, the boards with decorative blind stamped panels and central emblematic image with captions (image and text too rubbed to identify), piece chipped from centre fore-edge where a clasp would originally have been, corners worn; all edges stained dark green, with an early blind tooled decorative pattern featuring small birds perched on floral sprays (in a style similar to gauffering, but with the edges coloured rather than gilt); lacking the free endpapers, inked ownership inscription at head of upper pastedown above a much later bookplate, hinges cracking, the outer leaves neatly reinserted onto a later (but not modern) stub, lacking a section of the title page extending from the bottom fore-corner to the edge of the printing details (encompassing the date), with a neat paper repair to restore the page size and the date inserted almost illegibly by hand, occasional early marginalia and underlining, minor printing error affecting the last couple of lines of text p. 723(recto of sig. Aaa2), a few small worm holes at end (mainly to margins, but on the last few leaves slightly affecting one letter of text), some light marginal waterstains, scattered light foxing and soiling; Petrum Horst, Coloniae Agrippinae (Cologne), [1526?]. *The manuscript date on the title page is not clear, but the Epistle at the end is dated 1526. This is an early Cologne edition ['following Froben'] of the Colloquies of Desiderius Erasmus (1469-1536), the Dutch priest and humanist considered the greatest European scholar of his age. It includes a brief life of the author. Erasmus' Familiar Colloquies grew from a small collection of phrases and dialogue, written in Paris at the end of the fifteenth century to help his private pupils improve their command of Latin. Originally published by Johann Froben (c. 1460-1527), the celebrated printer and publisher at Basel who collaborated with Erasmus on numerous projects, the text was revised by Erasmus several times over the next few years. In its final state (1526) the original collection of phrases was expanded into 'conversation pieces in which all the topics of the day are discussed with a freedom which ensured their popularity. Later in the century and up to the eighteenth century they were a set book in schools, and there are lines in Shakespeare which directly recall Erasmus's words.' [Printing and the Mind of Man, 53]. The printer's device of Peter Horst on the title page features Geryon (or Geryones), the unconquerable giant with three heads, and the motto Concordia insuperabilis ['concord is insuperable'].

Andreas Cratander, 1526. Very Good Folio tandem per m. Fabiu Rhauen natem, Gulielmum Copum Basiliensem, Nicolaum Leonicenu, & Andream Brentium, uiros doctissimos Latinitate donata, ac iamprima in lucem aedita: quo reuera humano gene rinihil fieri potuit falubrius.

The margins contain notes in various ancient hands, as well as some old water staining, but still an attractive copy in an old specked calf with a. Title page possibly supplied from another copy. The 2nd latin edition of the works, and the first printed north of the Alps. Although generally based on the first Latinedition, prepared by Fabio Calvio, and printed at Rome in 1525, this Basel edition is textually more complete. The tract De hominis natura has been added in the translation of Andrea Brentio of Padua, as have Aphorisms in the translation of Niccolo Leoniceno, one of the famous Italian's most important works, and De ratione victus in morbus acutis and Praesagiorum liber in the translation of Wilhelm Copus. 'Hippocrates first established an empirical system of medicine based on a combination of bedside experience and a collation of the many individual data which then formed the basis of clinical teaching. The clinical descriptions of fevers, phthisis, puerperal convulsions, epilepsy and other disorders have remained classics and no such records were kept again for over a thousand years. 'The treatise on surgery includes treatment of dislocations and fractures, trephining the skull, descriptions of surgical instruments, rules on public health and diagnosis, a famous work on the brain, on the theory of the four humours, and many others. Laennec specifically acknowledges his debt to the Hippocatic writings in relation to his invention of the stethoscope. The most celebrated section of all is probably the "Aphorisms". 'The ideal of the humane and learned physician originates with Hippocates, and the "Hippocratic Oath" still...

EPICURO Marcantonio
Dialogo di tre ciechi.
|
(In fine:) Vinegia, per Giovanni Antonio et fratelli da Sabbio, 1526, in-8, ff. (23, mancando l’ult. f. bianco, segn. A-F4), leg. mod. p. perg. antica flessibile. Titolo racchiuso da bordura silografica figurata a motivo archiettonico, con impresa tipogr., la quale è ripetuta in fine; testo in car. corsivo. Prima edizione della Cecaria, di estrema rarità; infatti l’edizione del 1525 del medesimo stampatore, citata da Salvioli, Gamba e Brunet, non esiste; nessun esempl. con data 1525 figura in biblioteche italiane o straniere, né è mai passato in vendita, né è citato da Sander ed Allacci, e soprattutto dai recenti Annali dei Nicolini di L. Carpané, in “Il mestiere de le stamperie de i libri”, a cura di E.Sandal. Al verso dell’ultimo foglio, sotto il colophon, è riportato il “privilegio della Signoria di Vinegia per anni dieci”. Il titolo, nelle edizioni successive alle prime due dei Da Sabbio, sarà mutato in quello di “Cecaria”. Vi figurano quattro personaggi: il Vecchio, il Geloso, il Terzo (ciechi) e la Guida. Composizione drammatica di grande successo all’epoca, in forma dialogo “in versi di vario metro, assai leggiadri” (Salvioli), senza divisione di atti né di scene, che, secondo il Crescimbeni, sarebbe la prima poesia drammatica a portare il nome di “tragicommedia” nelle edizioni posteriori. «Alcune edizioni della “Cecaria” portano come nome dell’autore Antonio Epicuro Caracciolo o Epicuro Napolitano, e questi nomi hanno generato molti dei problemi di identificazione dell’autore. Alcuni lo hanno confuso con il contemporaneo Pietro Antonio Caracciolo e con il Notturno Napoletano, mentre altri hanno ritenuto che il “napolitano” del titolo indicasse il luogo di nascita del suo autore» (Diz. Biogr. It. XLIII, pp. 19-21). Nacque in Abruzzo e visse a Napoli (1472-1555), contemporaneo di Sannazzaro, Pontano e Tansillo; fu commediografo e poeta d’occasione, “uomo faceto e buon compagno, di umor lieto e sollazzevole, e ne’ suoi costumi alquanto libero”. Ottimo esempl. (il frontesp. leggermente rifilato in alto). Carpané, Annali, p. 146, n.14. Durin, Edizioni dei Niccolini (1521-1601), n. 57. Allacci 174. Sander I, 1658. Salvioli 701-2. Gamba 1376, note. Brunet II, 1016. Clubb 403 (ma con i dati bibliografici tra parentesi). Regenstein (ediz. poster.). Melzi I, 191, 291 e 358 (con ampie notizie bio-bibliografiche). Lancetti 93.

HUGH OF ST. VICTOR.
Opera].

Paris, Badius Ascensius, 1526. 1526 - 3 vols., folio, ff. [26], 409; [24], 401; [16] 447, roman letter in double columns; titles with Badius' four-part title border, with crowned dolphins and a medallion of a scholar in the upper piece, two Amazons on horseback in the lower piece, military trophies in the side-pieces, Badius' "Prelum Ascensianum" device in the centre; woodcut criblé initials, two full-page diagrams in volume II; an excellent copy in late 16th century vellum lettered in manuscript. First collected edition of the works of Hugh of St. Victor (1096-1141), including many pieces printed for the first time. It includes his masterwork, the De sacramentis Christianae fidei, "the first attempt on the grand scale - for Abelard's almost contemporary Theologia is a scantier outline - to give a really comprehensive view of theology in all its branches" (David Knowles), his scriptural commentaries and mystical works, including the De arca Noe morali and De arca Noe mystica, and his philosophical and scientific works, the Didascalicon in particular, in which Hugh sets forth a new division of knowledge."According to Hugh, philosophy encompasses four parts: theorica, practica (that is, moral philosophy), mechanica, and logica. Theorica in turn is divided into theologia, mathematica, and physica, or physiologia. The Didascalicon says little about physica, limiting itself to indicating that it is the science of nature and that it examines the causes of things in their effects and their effects in their causes. Hugh lingers a great deal longer on mathematics, to which he gives a preponderant place; it is indispensable to the knowledge of physics and ought to be studied before the latter . The classification of the sciences in the Didascalicon gives a place not only to theorica, but to mechanica as well, that is, to the mechanical arts (the arts of clothing, armament, navigation, agriculture, hunting, medicine, and the theatre). Hugh was thus the first to raise technology to the dignity of science. In this regard he was the first of a great number of the authors of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries" (DSB).Renouard II pp. 520-23.

Basileae / Basel: Andreas Cratander, 1526 tandem per m. Fabiu Rhauen natem, Gulielmum Copum Basiliensem, Nicolaum Leonicenu, & Andream Brentium, uiros doctissimos Latinitate donata, ac iamprima in lucem aedita: quo reuera humano gene rinihil fieri potuit falubrius. [lii], 492, [2], title and page one within metal cut border by Jakob Faber after Hans Holbein the younger. The margins contain notes in various ancient hands, as well as some old water staining, but still an attractive copy in an old specked calf with a . Title page possibly supplied from another copy. The 2nd latin edition of the works, and the first printed north of the Alps. Although generally based on the first Latinedition , prepared by Fabio Calvio, and printed at Rome in 1525, this Basel edition is textually more complete. The tract De hominis natura has been added in the translation of Andrea Brentio of Padua, as have Aphorisms in the translation of Niccolo Leoniceno, one of the famous Italian's most important works, and De ratione victus in morbus acutis and Praesagiorum liber in the translation of Wilhelm Copus. 'Hippocrates first established an empirical system of medicine based on a combination of bedside experience and a collation of the many individual data which then formed the basis of clinical teaching. The clinical descriptions of fevers, phthisis, puerperal convulsions, epilepsy and other disorders have remained classics and no such records were kept again for over a thousand years. 'The treatise on surgery includes treatment of dislocations and fractures, trephining the skull, descriptions of surgical instruments, rules on public health and diagnosis, a famous work on the brain, on the theory of the four humours, and many others. Laennec specifically acknowledges his debt to the Hippocatic writings in relation to his invention of the stethoscope. The most celebrated section of all is probably the "Aphorisms". 'The ideal of the humane and learned physician originates with Hippocates, and the "Hippocratic Oath" still remains the classic expression of the duties, ethics and moral standards of the medical profession' (Printing and the Mind of Man). Adams H568 ; Bruni Celli 629 ; Choulant p. 25 ; Durling 2321 ; Waller 4496 ; Wellcome 3178.. 2nd Edition. Full Calf. Very Good. Folio.

Erasmi (D. Roterodami), Erasmus (Desiderius)
FAMILIARIUM COLLOQUIORUM OPUS

ut postremum a Frobenio est editum, ipsius auctoris manu recognitum: doctissimis etiam scholys nuncrecens illustratum. Brevis eiusdem auctoris vita. Adiectorerum & verborum memorabilium indice locupletissimo. Pp. [xvi]+784+[16](brief life of Erasmus, plus index), large printer's device on title page, a few small decorative initials; small 8vo; contemporary stained pigskin, plain spine with raised bands, the boards with decorative blind stamped panels and central emblematic image with captions (image and text too rubbed to identify), piece chipped from centre fore-edge where a clasp would originally have been, corners worn; all edges stained dark green, with an early blind tooled decorative pattern featuring small birds perched on floral sprays (in a style similar to gauffering, but with the edges coloured rather than gilt); lacking the free endpapers, inked ownership inscription at head of upper pastedown above a much later bookplate, hinges cracking, the outer leaves neatly reinserted onto a later (but not modern) stub, lacking a section of the title page extending from the bottom fore-corner to the edge of the printing details (encompassing the date), with a neat paper repair to restore the page size and the date inserted almost illegibly by hand, occasional early marginalia and underlining, minor printing error affecting the last couple of lines of text p. 723(recto of sig. Aaa2), a few small worm holes at end (mainly to margins, but on the last few leaves slightly affecting one letter of text), some light marginal waterstains, scattered light foxing and soiling; Petrum Horst, Coloniae Agrippinae (Cologne), [1526?]. *The manuscript date on the title page is not clear, but the Epistle at the end is dated 1526. This is an early Cologne edition ['following Froben'] of the Colloquies of Desiderius Erasmus (1469-1536), the Dutch priest and humanist considered the greatest European scholar of his age. It includes a brief life of the author. Erasmus' Familiar Colloquies grew from a small collection of phrases and dialogue, written in Paris at the end of the fifteenth century to help his private pupils improve their command of Latin. Originally published by Johann Froben (c. 1460-1527), the celebrated printer and publisher at Basel who collaborated with Erasmus on numerous projects, the text was revised by Erasmus several times over the next few years. In its final state (1526) the original collection of phrases was expanded into 'conversation pieces in which all the topics of the day are discussed with a freedom which ensured their popularity. Later in the century and up to the eighteenth century they were a set book in schools, and there are lines in Shakespeare which directly recall Erasmus's words.' [Printing and the Mind of Man, 53]. The printer's device of Peter Horst on the title page features Geryon (or Geryones), the unconquerable giant with three heads, and the motto Concordia insuperabilis ['concord is insuperable'].

- An untitled manuscript anthology, being a personal selection of the scribe’s favorite poems (i.e. a mecmu’a) in Ottoman Turkish. 90 leaves; 205 x 97 mm; in original blind-stamped, brown leather binding. Divani script, mainly black, with less frequent red ink. Complied by an Ottoman Turk, probably in the late17thor early 18th century,as a kind of poetical commonplace book. The scribe remains anonymous. Most of the poems themselves do not have indication of authorship, but a number are identifiable by having the author’s name embedded in the poetical text. The great poet Baki (1526-1600) is an example. Several poetic genres are represented in this manuscript, including mystical Sufi poems. [Attributes: Soft Cover]

Antwerp, Johannes Graphaeus for Johannes Steelsius, 1534. 8vo. With some woodcut initials. 52 lvs. Four rare post-incunables clearly bound together with the intention to form a collection of texts in defence of the Catholic faith and its liturgy against Lutheranism and to serve as an example for good and just behaviour for priests to purify the widely corrupted practice. All treatises are the only editions published in the Netherlands in the period 1500-1540, all printed in Antwerp by the most important printers/publishers active there: Michiel Hillen van Hoochstraten and Johannes Steelsius. The present copy of the treatise by Schenck van Tautenburch even is the second copy recorded of the only known edition.Ad 1: Only edition of this treatise on the way a bishop has to act and to behave to serve as an example for his subjects. Frederick Schenck van Tautenburg (1503-1588) published this treatise in the year he was appointed Councillor of the Emperor Charles V. In 1528, however, he was ordained priest and became deacon of the Cathedral and arch-deacon of St. Peter in Utrecht. Later he became the last arch-bishop of Utrecht before the Reformation (1562-1580). Only one other copy of this only edition of this treatise is known to exist: in the library of the Cathedral of Strängnäs in Sweden.Ad 2: Edition of the treatise on the ecclesiastical offices and duties in the form of a letter to bishop Fulgentius, by Isidorus Hispalensis (ca. 560-636), one of the 'Doctors of the Church' and author of the famous Etymologiarum libri XX. The treatise is edited by Johann Cochlaeus (1479-1552), who wrote also a preface, dated Dresden, 30 December 1533. NK mentions five copies: The Hague RL, London BL, Freiburg, Cologne and the Franciscans in Düsseldorf.Ad 3: Treatise on the 'Good works', based on texts from the Bible by Georg Witzel, or Wichelius (1501-1573), a correspondent of Erasmus as well as Johann Cochlaeus. The text is clearly directed against Lutheranism . NK mentions only two copies: London BL and Utrecht UL.Ad 4: One of the most important works by Ambrosius (ca. 340-397), one of the four Fathers of the Western Church known under the title De Mysteriis (on the Sacraments and the liturgy of the Mass and behaviour of priests). NK mentions a private owned copy and three copies in the Brussels RL, Oxford Bodl. Library and Cambridge UL. Very good copies of these four treatises, forming together a coherent collection. The book was till 1863 in the library of Trinity College at Glanalmond, near Edinburgh (founded in 1847, now Glenalmond College). In that year the book was bought (?) by Alex Thomson(grant?), possibly Alex Thomson (1817-1875), the 'Greek Thomson', a famous architect from Glasgow who followed the principles of Greek architecture. Probably the impression of a seal in black wax on the verso of the front cover (ca. 18 x 15 mm), with a bishop surrounded by a Greek text is Thomson's seal. Ad 1: NK 4277 (01088bis); E. Colliander, in: Nord. Tidskrift f. Bok- och Bibl. väsen, 28 (1941), p. 198-9; A. de Backer & Vanderhaeghen, in: Bull. du bibliophile belge, 20 (1864), p. 281; W.

In 4to (cm 18,5); cartoncino colorato del XVIII secolo; cc. 6. Margini sobri, ma ottima copia."La politica di Clemente VII diveniva sempre piu' filofrancese, e Ascanio Colonna, di fede imperiale come la maggior parte dei suoi consorti, si univa ad essi, stringendosi nell'opposizione al pontefice intorno al cardinale Pompeo. Quando questi capeggio' la spedizione che il 20 settembre 1526 vide i Colonnesi, in nome dell'autorita' imperiale e in odio al papa, mettere a sacco i palazzi vaticani e la basilica di S. Pietro, Ascanio era con lui. Addivenuto Clemente VII ad un accordo con l'ambasciatore imperiale, Ugo de Moncada, i Colonnesi dovettero ritirarsi, ma il loro scontento era pari alla volonta' del pontefice di non mantenere la promessa di perdono nei loro confronti. Cosi' Ascanio, Pompeo e Vespasiano Colonna furono compresi nel monitorio che il papa lancio' ai primi di novembre contro i Colonna... Poco dopo il pontefice fece assaltare le case dei Colonna a Roma e i loro possedimenti nella campagna romana e privo' il cardinal Pompeo della porpora" (D.B.I., XXVII, p. 271 e p. 409).F.

EPICURO Marcantonio
Dialogo di tre ciechi.
|
(In fine:) Vinegia, per Giovanni Antonio et fratelli da Sabbio, 1526, in-8, ff. (23, mancando l’ult. f. bianco, segn. A-F4), leg. mod. p. perg. antica flessibile. Titolo racchiuso da bordura silografica figurata a motivo archiettonico, con impresa tipogr., la quale è ripetuta in fine; testo in car. corsivo. Prima edizione della Cecaria, di estrema rarità; infatti l’edizione del 1525 del medesimo stampatore, citata da Salvioli, Gamba e Brunet, non esiste; nessun esempl. con data 1525 figura in biblioteche italiane o straniere, né è mai passato in vendita, né è citato da Sander ed Allacci, e soprattutto dai recenti Annali dei Nicolini di L. Carpané, in “Il mestiere de le stamperie de i libri”, a cura di E.Sandal. Al verso dell’ultimo foglio, sotto il colophon, è riportato il “privilegio della Signoria di Vinegia per anni dieci”. Il titolo, nelle edizioni successive alle prime due dei Da Sabbio, sarà mutato in quello di “Cecaria”. Vi figurano quattro personaggi: il Vecchio, il Geloso, il Terzo (ciechi) e la Guida. Composizione drammatica di grande successo all’epoca, in forma dialogo “in versi di vario metro, assai leggiadri” (Salvioli), senza divisione di atti né di scene, che, secondo il Crescimbeni, sarebbe la prima poesia drammatica a portare il nome di “tragicommedia” nelle edizioni posteriori. «Alcune edizioni della “Cecaria” portano come nome dell’autore Antonio Epicuro Caracciolo o Epicuro Napolitano, e questi nomi hanno generato molti dei problemi di identificazione dell’autore. Alcuni lo hanno confuso con il contemporaneo Pietro Antonio Caracciolo e con il Notturno Napoletano, mentre altri hanno ritenuto che il “napolitano” del titolo indicasse il luogo di nascita del suo autore» (Diz. Biogr. It. XLIII, pp. 19-21). Nacque in Abruzzo e visse a Napoli (1472-1555), contemporaneo di Sannazzaro, Pontano e Tansillo; fu commediografo e poeta d’occasione, “uomo faceto e buon compagno, di umor lieto e sollazzevole, e ne’ suoi costumi alquanto libero”. Ottimo esempl. (il frontesp. leggermente rifilato in alto). Carpané, Annali, p. 146, n.14. Durin, Edizioni dei Niccolini (1521-1601), n. 57. Allacci 174. Sander I, 1658. Salvioli 701-2. Gamba 1376, note. Brunet II, 1016. Clubb 403 (ma con i dati bibliografici tra parentesi). Regenstein (ediz. poster.). Melzi I, 191, 291 e 358 (con ampie notizie bio-bibliografiche). Lancetti 93.

Ottoman Turkish Sufi Manuscript Poetry
|
Late 17th century - 90 leaves plus two inscribed doublures. An untitled anthology of the scribe's favoprite poems (a mecmu'a) in Ottoman Turkish. It was compiled by an unknown scribe as a kind of poetical "common place b ook".

This one has interesting variants from the usual text of this lyr ic. The poetic genres represented in the manuscript include gazel; mesnevi;turki;kit'a;hymns & oth er religious poetry. Most of the poems are mystical (Sufi). The script is in "divani", mostly in black but a few items in red. Bound in soft brown leat her, oblong octavo (8.5" x 4") [Attributes: Signed Copy]
