Augsburg, Heinrich Steiner, 1531. Mit ganzs. Titelholzschnitt, 49 halbseitigen Holzschnitten im Text von Hans Weiditz, Jörg Breu u.a. sowie zahlreichen Endstücken und Initialen in Holzschnitt. Titel, (3), CXIX Bll. Kl.-folio. HLdr. d. 18. Jhdts. mit Rückenschild und reicher Rückenvergoldung. Bibliotheks-Rückenschild (Ecken und Kapitale teilw. stärker berieben, Lederrücken mit 3 kleinen Fehlstellen). Aus der Bibliothek der Fürstlichen Bibliothek Donaueschingen mit deren Stempel auf dem Titel und am Schluss. Erste deutsche Ausgabe der nur in einem Auszug von Justinus aus dem 3. Jahrhundert überlieferten “Philippischen Geschichten”, der frühen Universalgeschichte des Südgalliers Trogus Pompeius (um 20 v. Chr.). Die erhaltenen Teile umfassen die Geschichte von Assyrien, Medien, Persien, Makedonien und der Diadochenreiche. Nur die letzten Bücher handeln von den Römern selbst; das letzte Kapitel “Von dem land Hyspanien” schliesst mit dem Sieg Augustus’ über Spanien im Jahr 19 v. Chr und war für Boner Grund, seine Übersetzung Karl V. zu widmen. Der Übersetzer der vorliegenden ersten deutschen Ausgabe, Hieronymus Boner, war Stadtschultheiss in Colmar und literarisch mit zahlreichen Übersetzungen antiker Autoren hervorgetreten. Die Abbildungen zeigen hauptsächlich Schlachtenszenen zu Wasser und zu Land aber auch Empfangsszenen am Hof sowie (idealisierte) Städteansichten. Nach Dodgson verwendete Steiner 18 der Weiditzschen Holzschnitte bereits in den seinen Ausgaben von Ciceros “De officiis” (1531) und in Petrarcas “Trostspiegel” (1532), während einige hier zum ersten Mal erscheinen. Der Holzschnitt auf fol. XIr stammt ursprünglich aus der 1522 bei Ramminger in Augsburg erschienenen “Chronik und Hystoria” (STC 204).

Dante [Alighieri]
AMOROSO CONVIVIO DI DANTE, Con la Additione, & molti Suoi Notandi, Accuratamente Reuisto & Emendato
|
Vinegia: Marchio Sessa, 1531. Rare and important edition, and only the fourth printing of DanteOs OConvivioO. This edition used by academics and especially by Salvini With a beautifully engraved titlepage featuring an illustrated and regal border depicting nymphs and animals amidst climbing vines, initial 7-line capital letter handsomely engraved, colophon leaf engraved. Small octavo, in an antique binding of soft vellum, probably of the 19th century, the spine with gilt decorations all over and the title and author printed in gilt. [xvi], 112 leaves A clean, fresh and well preserved copy of this scarce work, very little spotting, crisp and unpressed and unwashed.. RARE AND IMPORTANT EDITION. All 16th century editions of the work are extremely elusive. DanteOs CONVIVIO, or Banquet, is an unfinished philosophical work by the great Italian poet. It was planned as a series of 14 treatises, each in the form of a prose commentary on one of DanteOs own CANZONI. The four completed treatises, written between 1304 and 1308, draw on numerous philosophical sources but most heavily on Aristotle. It is the first work of Dante to explore certain doctrines and meditations, politics and the political society and moral man.

Dante Alighieri.
L'amoroso Convivio, con la additione, et molti suoi notandi, accuratamente rivisto et emendato. 8 Bl., 112 num. Bl. Mit figürlicher Titelbordüre und Druckermarke am Schluß. Pergamentbd d. 19. Jahrh.
|
Venedig, Marchio Sessa, 1531. - Vierte Ausgabe des 1304-1307 entstandenen und erstmals 1490 gedruckten Werks, das im Original korrekter ohne Attribut 'Convivio' heißt, da nicht nur Liebesdinge, sondern in erster Linie philosophische und politische Fragen erörtert werden. Zugleich formuliert Dante erstmals die Vorzüge der Volkssprache gegenüber dem Lateinischen. Das "Gastmahl" lädt denn auch ausdrücklich diejenigen ein, die des Lateinischen nicht mächtig, aber dennoch für philosophische Fragen empfänglich sind. Geplant hatte Dante eine Art volkssprachlicher Enzyklopädie in vierzehn Traktaten, von denen jedoch nur vier fertiggestellt wurden, die sich neben verschiedenen anderen Quellen vornehmlich auf Aristoteles stützen. Die vorliegende Ausgabe ist auch die von der Accademia della Crusca ausgewählte. ? Titel mit altem Besitzvermerk und drei kleinen Papierfehlern, von denen zwei die Titelbordüre im äußeren Rand betreffen. Wenig gebräunt, einige alte Anstreichungen. ? Adams D 119. Gamba 419. Mambelli, Dante, 803. Sander 2331. * Fourth edition, originally with the more appropriate title 'Convivio', since the discussions allude to philosophical and political issues rather than to love issues. Originally, Dante had planned a kind of encyclopedia with fourteen treatises for those interested in philosophical topics but not proficient in Latin. Only four of these were completed. ? With figural title border und printer's device at the end. Title with three small paper flaws, two to woodcut border. Very light browning, a few old marks. In 19th century full vellum.

FRACASTORIUS, HIERONYMUS [GIROLAMO FRACASTORO OF VERONA]....
Syphilis, sive morbus gallicus.
|
Roma, Apud Antonium Bladum Asulanum (on colophon), 1531, mense Septembri. 4to. Sown, uncut and unbound. Title-page and a few other leaves with a bit of minor brownspotting; overall a very nice and well-preserved copy of this beautifully printed, extremely scarce work. Two quires with loose leaves. Floriated large initial at beginning. [32] ff. (being title-page, 29 ff. text, 1 f. errata, 1 f. blank). ¶ The exceedingly scarce second edition (the "Rome text") of "[t]he most famous of all medical poems" (Garrison & Morton), the poem which gave to the disease syphilis its name, being the most important edition of the work, the first complete edition (with the two lines of the first book printed for the first time - not found in any other contemporary editions of the work), the only authoritative version of the text to appear contemporarily, and by far the rarest edition - with only four known copies at the time of the official bibliography (Baumgartner and Fulton, 1935) (whereas the first edition from the year before, 1530, was known in 30 copies) - our copy also with the final blank leaf (H4), "not preserved in any copy examined" (Baumgartner & Fulton, p. 38)."The edition published at Rome (no. 2) in the following year is a finer piece of printing, AND IT IS EVIDENTLY A MUCH RARER WORK SINCE ONLY FOUR COPIES HAVE BEEN TRACED, WHILE AT LEAST 30 COPIES OF THE VERONA EDITION (i.e. the first edition) ARE KNOWN." (Baumgartner & Fulton, p. 37). Apart from the work itself being of the greatest impact on the history of medicine, giving to Syphilis its name and epitomizing contemporary knowledge of the illness, and the author being one of the most renowned physicians of the Renaissance, being compared in scope and excellence to Leonardo da Vinci, the present work in the present second edition has yet another feature, apart from its utmost scarcity, which contributes to its excellence; it is printed by the excellent Italian printer Antonio Blado, whose works are scarce and very sought after."Textually, as well as typographically, this is the most important edition of Fracastoro's poem, since, unlike those which follow, it bears evidence of having been supervised by Fracastoro himself, the two lines which had been omitted from Bk. I of the Verona edition being here included (verses 1 and 2 on leaf C2b) in exactly the form in which they were written on the vellum copy of the 1530 edition mentioned above (see end of note)... Among his other achievements in typography Antonio Blado can claim the distinction of having issued the most beautiful edition of Fracastoro's poem of any of the sixteenth century. The format is larger than that of the Verona edition and the fount of large italic type seems particularly well suited to Fracastoro's even lined verses. As with the other editions of this period the capitals are in Roman throughout; the ornamental capital (Q) at the beginning of Bk. I is particularly well executed. Bks II and II have spaces at the beginning for an illuminated initial.THE BOOKS OF ANTONIO BLADO ARE APPARENTLY AS RARE AS THEY ARE EXCELLENT, AND THEY HAVE LONG BEEN SOUGHT AFTER BY ITALIAN COLLECTORS. Blado was born in 1490 at Asloa in northern Italy. In 1515 Blado settled in Rome where he remained until his death in 1567. He was a bold and original printer, who, as Fumagelli points out, almost invariably undertook new things, never reprinting classics, and only occasionally , as in the case of Fracastoro's poem, reprinting the work of a contemporary. In 1532 he issued the first edition of Machiavelli's "Il Principe", and in 1549 he became official printer to the Papal See..." (Baumgartner & Fulton, p. 39)."Girolamo Fracastoro (1484-1553), a Veronese of thick-set, hirsute appearance and jovial mien, who practiced in the Lago di Garda region, was at once a physician, poet, physicist, geologist, astronomer, and pathologist, and shares with Leonardo da Vinci the honour of being the first geologist to see fossil remains in the true light (1530). He was also the first scientist to refer to the magnetic poles of the earth (1543). His medical fame rests upon that most celebrated of medical poems, "Syphilis sive Moribus Gallicus (Venice, 1530), which sums up the contemporary dietetic and therapeutic knowledge of the time, recognizes a venereal cause, and gave the disease its present name…" (Garrison, History of Medicine, p. 233).The magnificent medical poem is about the main character, a young shepherd called "Syphilis", who induces the people to forsake the Sun God, who in return bestows upon man a new, horrible plague, which Fracastoro names after the shepherd. "It epitomized contemporary knowledge of syphilis, gave to it its present name, and recognized a venereal cause. Fracastorius refers to mercury as a remedy." (Garrison and Morton).The work must be described as seminal, and its great influence and importance has continued throughout centuries. As stated in the bibliography by Baumgartner and Fulton, which is devoted exclusively to the poem, "[t]he full extent of the influence exerted by a work which has received such wide recognition cannot be adequately estimated without searching bibliographical analysis", and thus they have traced 100 editions of Fracastoro's Syphilis-poem, including translations into six languages. 18 of these appeared in the 16th century, but it is curious to see, how the work continues to resurface up until the 20th century. Almost 200 years after the work originally appeared, Italy witnessed a great revival of Fracastoro and his poem, and the first Italian translation appeared in 1731, with a preface by the great Enlightenment philosopher Giambattista Vico, and by 1739 five Italian editions had appeared. Another revival of the work took place as late as the 20th century, with four new English translations appearing between 1928 and 1935."Le poème de Fracastor sur la Syphilis restera toujours un chef-d'oeuvre, parce que le pinceau est large, l'imagination hardie, la versification harmonieuse, et que le poète agrandit son sujet ingrat en remontant aux cases celestas, en montant la main des Dieux s'appersantissant pour punir la terre; la fiction, surtout, qu'il a imagine pour retrace la découverte du mercure, est un tableau digne des plus grands maîtres." Achille Chéreau, Le Parnasse medical francais, 1874, p. xv). Baumgartner & Fulton, A Bibliography of the Poem of Syphilis sive Moribus Gallicus by Girolamo Fracastoro of Verona: no. 2 (our copy follows exactly the collation given here - and also has the final blank leaf mentioned but not found in any of the examined copies).Garrison and Morton: 2364. "There is every reason to believe that the first edition of 1530 was personally supervised by Fracastoro as it was passing through the press. The printer, however, omitted two verses in the first book, which have been inserted in manuscript, apparently by Fracastoro himself, in the copy on vellum now preserved in the Bibliothèque Nationale. As these two lines are included in the Rome edition of the following year, it is likely that Fracastoro also supervised this, the second edition, and that this should be regarded as the authoritative text, since there is no evidence of textual changes in seven subsequent editions during his life."

AMMIRATO Scipione.
DELLE FAMIGLIE NOBILI NAPOLETANE. Le quali per levar ogni gara di precedenza sono state poste in confuso. Parte prima. In Fiorenza, Appresso Giorgio Marescotti, 1580.
|
- Prima edizione. Opera dedicata a Don Ferdinando, Cardinale de' Medici. Cm.40,8x26,5. Pg.96, 208. In fine tre carte bianche. Legatura in piena pelle con ferri in oro ai piatti, che ha subito un radicale intervento di restauro. Di fatto si tratta di una coperta nuova, cui sono state applicate le parti rimanenti della coperta originale. Dorso a sei nervature. Fogli di guardia moderni. Frontespizio interamente illustrato, con figure ornamentali a soggetto mitologico. Esemplare ad ampi margini. Capilettera ornati. Il volume contiene 13 tavole di alberi genealogiche finemente incise, otto delle quali a doppia pagina. L'intero volume ha sofferto di prolungata esposizione a fonte di umidità, che ha creato un grave guasto al margine superiore, che non inficia comunque il testo. Anche in questo caso é stato realizzato un articolato restauro e tutte le carte sono state debitamente riparate con carta a velo giapponese. Bruniture alla carta H. Il testo é preceduto da un sonetto di Mario Colonna, dedicato all'Ammirato, e di un proemio che si articola in tre parti: "Alcuni pochi discorsi per maggior chiarezza dell'Opera, i quali non essendo stati à tempo da porsi infin da principio, in questo luogo con nuovo numero si son messi, & prima della nobiltà delle famiglie", "De' titoli, delle dignità, degli ufici, et d'altri segni d'honore, et prima del Nobile, del Magnifico, & dell'Illustre", "De' Duchi di Benevento, et degli Imperadori, et Principi, i quali di questo Regno hanno havuto Imperio, & Signoria". Nel volume si tracciano cenni genealogici delle famiglie Accrocciamura, Alagna, Alemagna, Alneti, Aquini, Anella, Belmonte, Belvedere, Bonifacii, Brenna, Brussoni, Cabani, Capoa, Capresi, Caraccioli Rossi, Cavanigli, Celani, Clignetti, Cosia, Diano, Dinisiaco, Gambacorti, Gentile, Ianuilla, Marramaldi, Marzani, Mastrogiudici, Monaci, Monsorii (di questa famiglia è unita una notazione manoscritta), Pipini, Polliceni, Porcelletti, Procida, Sanframondi, Sangiorgi, Sanguineti, Sanseverini, Sant'Angelo, Sanz, Saurani, Siginulfi, Suardi, Sus, Tornai, Tuzziaco. "Scipione Ammirato nasce a Lecce nel 1531 da nobile famiglia di origine fiorentina. Studia diritto a Napoli, ove soprattutto frequenta circoli letterari, stringendo amicizia con i poeti Bernardino Rota e Angelo Di Costanzo. Vive a Roma, a Venezia, a Padova, e quindi a Lecce. Ancora in un soggiorno a Venezia è costretto ad abbandonare precipitosamente la città in seguito alla scoperta della sua relazione d'amore con una Contarini; rifugiatosi a Lecce, fonda l'Accademia dei Trasformati. Stabilitosi dapprima a Napoli, non incontra l'appoggio da parte degli spagnoli, che rifiutano di nominarlo storiografo del vicereame. Quindi nel 1569 si trasferisce a Firenze, bene accolto dal Gran Duca Cosimo; qui vive nel pieno riconoscimento dei suoi meriti letterari fino alla morte avvenuta nel 1601; nella vecchiaia volle essere ordinato sacerdote. Scrittore di grande versatilità lascia una produzione letteraria notevolissima per qualità e numero di titoli" (dal sito dell'Università di Napoli). La seconda parte dell'opera fu pubblicata postuma nel 1651, grazie ai copiosi appunti lasciati dall'Autore. > Spreti, 112. Brunet, I, 238. Graesse, I, 115. Minieri Riccio, 18.

Dante Alighieri.
L'amoroso Convivio, con la additione, et molti suoi notandi, accuratamente rivisto et emendato. 8 Bl., 112 num. Bl. Mit figürlicher Titelbordüre und Druckermarke am Schluß. Pergamentbd d. 19. Jahrh.
|
Venedig, Marchio Sessa, 1531.. . Vierte Ausgabe des 1304-1307 entstandenen und erstmals 1490 gedruckten Werks, das im Original korrekter ohne Attribut 'Convivio' heißt, da nicht nur Liebesdinge, sondern in erster Linie philosophische und politische Fragen erörtert werden. Zugleich formuliert Dante erstmals die Vorzüge der Volkssprache gegenüber dem Lateinischen. Das "Gastmahl" lädt denn auch ausdrücklich diejenigen ein, die des Lateinischen nicht mächtig, aber dennoch für philosophische Fragen empfänglich sind. Geplant hatte Dante eine Art volkssprachlicher Enzyklopädie in vierzehn Traktaten, von denen jedoch nur vier fertiggestellt wurden, die sich neben verschiedenen anderen Quellen vornehmlich auf Aristoteles stützen. Die vorliegende Ausgabe ist auch die von der Accademia della Crusca ausgewählte. - Titel mit altem Besitzvermerk und drei kleinen Papierfehlern, von denen zwei die Titelbordüre im äußeren Rand betreffen. Wenig gebräunt, einige alte Anstreichungen. - Adams D 119. Gamba 419. Mambelli, Dante, 803. Sander 2331. * Fourth edition, originally with the more appropriate title 'Convivio', since the discussions allude to philosophical and political issues rather than to love issues. Originally, Dante had planned a kind of encyclopedia with fourteen treatises for those interested in philosophical topics but not proficient in Latin. Only four of these were completed. - With figural title border und printer's device at the end. Title with three small paper flaws, two to woodcut border. Very light browning, a few old marks. In 19th century full vellum.

quae primum Byzantium, deinde Constantinopolis est appellata, incerto autore, sed illo tamen antiquiss. libellus perquamelegans, nunc primum typis chalcographis commissus.
|
[Venezia, ut videtur], 1531. - Kl.-8vo. [A-C4]. Mit vierzeiliger Eingangsinitiale und mehreren vierzeiligen, schwarzgrundigen Initialen. [12] Bl. (letztes leer). Olivegrüner Maroquinband des 19. Jhs., Vorsätze aus Brokatpapier, Spiegel aus zwei späten Reproduktionen von Tarotkarten, mit Darstellung eines reitenden Königs (vorne) bzw. Königin. Erster separat gedruckter Stadtführer der osmanischen Metropole. Anonym auf Latein veröffentlichte Beschreibung der in der Spätantike und im Mittelalter als das "Neue Rom" (Nova Roma) bezeichneten Weltstadt am Bosporus. Mit 400'000 bis 500'000 Einwohnern war sie die grösste Stadt Europas und im gesamten Mittelmeerraum. Eine demographische Erhebung von 1535 ergab 46'635 moslemische, 25'292 christliche und 8'070 jüdische Haushalte (vgl. Dursteler, Venetians in Constantinople (2006), S. 151f. Das kleinformatige Werk beschreibt die Metropole des Osmanischen Reichs auf dem Zenith ihrer Macht. Unter Süleyman I. dem Prächtigen (1520-1566) reichte der Einfluss der Osmanen von Ungarn über Belgrad bis Bagdad und weit nach Nordafrika. In den vierzehn römisch nummerierten Abschnitten ("Regios") werden die Lage und Sehenswürdigkeiten der Stadt und ihrer Umgebung stichwortartig beschrieben. Auf den als "Collectio civitatis" bezeichneteten beiden Schlussblättern listet der Verfasser indexartig die Vielzahl der um 1530 existierenden Paläste, Moscheen, Koranschulen, Mausoleen, Badehäuser, Bibliotheken und weiteren markanten Gebäude auf. Wenige Jahre später sollte das Antlitz der Stadt vor allem durch das Wirken Mimar Sinans, des 'Vaters der osmanischen Architektur', eine architektonische Umwälzung erfahren. Ein wichtiger Grund dass diese unpolemisch gehaltene Beschreibung der Hauptstadt des Osmanenreichs anonym und ohne Angabe von Druckort und Drucker veröffentlicht wurde, dürfte in der Tatsache liegen, dass die erste Türkenbelagerung der Stadt Wien, die am 14. Oktober 1529 von Süleyman I. nach Verlust eines Drittels seiner Truppen abgebrochen worden war, erst relativ kurze Zeit zurücklag. Als Druckort der in einer Antiqua, mit einer vierzeiligen Eingangsinitiale, diversen zweizeiligen Initialen und einem dreiblättrigen Kleeblatt auf Titel- und Schlussblatt gedruckten Schrift darf Venedig vermutet werden. - Spuren eines kleinen Stempels im Titel (Papier mit kleiner Fehlstelle). Von diesem Titel können wir 17 Bibliotheksexemplare nachweisen: Nebst den sechs in Italien und fünf in den USA, die beiden in Berlin und München, je eines in Wien, Oxford sowie in Leiden und das in Montpellier aufbewahrte, das auch von Göllner nachgewiesen wird. Goellner I, 420; CNCE 48944; ICC (Online Kat.) 012945. First seperately printed 'city guide' to Constantinople after its conquest by the Ottoman Empire in 1453. Anonymously published description in Latin of the capital of Constantinople, a city around 1530 without peer: with c. 4-500,000 inhabitants it was the largest city in Europe and in the Mediterranean region. A 1535 survey found the city divided into 46'635 Muslim, 25'292 Christian, and 8'070 Jewish households [cf. Dursteler, Venetians in Constantinople (2006), p. 151f.]. Under Sultan Suleyman - called by the Europeans "The Magnificent," but the Ottomans called him Kanuni, or "The Lawgiver" - the Ottoman Empire was at its peak, ruling the Middle East, North Africa and most parts of South Eastern Europe. As Nova Roma, Byzantine writers contrasted their city from the "old" Rome by pointing out how Byzantium (Constantinople) had always been a Christian city, while Old Rome had pagan roots. To the present day, the Patriarch of Constantinople includes "of Constantinople, New Rome" in his full title. Devided into fourteen parts ("Regio") the samll book offers a shorthand description of the immense metropolis - comprising the capital, Galata, the suburb facing the city from across the Golden Horn, Eyup, and Scutari (now Üsküdar). In the two final leaves (Collectio civitatis) the multitude of palaces, mosques, mausoleums, baths, Koran schools, reading room [Attributes: Hard Cover]

(Ex aedibus Quentelianis) Cologne 1531 Contemporary red vellum, rebacked. Folio . Second revised edition (1st: Landshut, 1524) with a new preface dated 1531 and very large title woodcut. The work has been, incorrectly, attributed to Johannes Ebser, Bishop of Chiemsee. Berthold Pürstinger (1465-1543), bishop of Chiemsee, was "often employed in important matters by Archbishop Leonard (d. 1519) and by his successor, Mathäus Lang (d. 1519). ... Lang's energetic reformatory measures accorded with Berthold's deepest wishes, and he seems to have both inspired them and given them expression. When Berthold was sent to suppress the Lutherans in Kitzbühel he accomplished little, his retiring nature being unfitted for decisive action. ... His Onus ecclesiae had appeared in 1524 and Archbishop Lang was anxious that Berthold would continue his literary work. ... "Bethold's writings have far more interest than the deeds of his active and public life; and they reveal the man with no less clearness. The Onus ecclesiae was published anonymously (Landshut, 1524, Cologne, 1531, 2d ed. revised, Augsburg, 1531), but there is no doubt about his authorship. As early as 1548 it appears in a Venetian index of heretical books and in 1550 in the Louvain index. ... Berthold's purpose is to call to repentance and reform; for this end he depicts in dark colors the 'burden' which lies on the entire Church--a twofold weight of guilt and impending punishment, in which all are involved, but especially Rome and the clergy. The Turks, who were then threatening eastern Europe, are an instrument of the merited doom; and the 'reformation' by which the Church was already divided forebodes more to come. ... Joachim of Fiore, the revelations of St. Bridget, and other productions of the contemporary medieval prophetism furnished material, with which personal observations and experience are interwoven, so that the whole presents a well-ordered and illuminating picture of conditions in South Germany and the archdiocese of Salzburg. ..." (New Schaff-Herzog, IX, p. 360). This copy, like the Durham copy described in Copac, has pasted onto title page above the title a lable with the words in sixteenth century type: "Reuerendi in Christo Patris ac domini, D. Ioannis, olim Episcopi Chemensis, & Reuerendiss. Archiepiscopi Saltzburgensis a Suffragijs." [2] 5-125 leaves (i.e.123 leaves: leaves 3 & 4 not issued with this work). Large title-page woodcut (Dodgson II, 428). Some marginal handsoiling. With 16th century printed label on title-page (see below) as on the Durham copy described in Copac. Signature on front paste-down of the bishop of Chiemsee: "Joannis Episcopi Chemensis." Neander Library book- plate (deaccessioned). § VD 16, P 2932; Adams E-20 (under Ebser); BM/STC German 662

First published in Paris in 1531 for students of the College of Navarre, the book appeared under several variations of the title and was first revised by Pedro de Soto (probably the Jesuit of the same name) at the time of a Venice edition of 1545. A number of editions appeared in France, Germany, Italy and the Low Countries in the next half-century; none of them now in any way common, as befits a schoolbook that should have worn out through continual use. Despite the faults noted above, the internal condition on the whole is clean and bright and the manner of binding worthy of attention. The semi-stiff vellum binding has slightly distorted with time (or storage conditions) but not unduly so and is attractively ornamented with a blind tooled frame on the front and rear covers, vellum ties at the fore-edge have however, been lost. Is it possible that this is an early example of a publisher's binding? Vellum would make an excellent and hard-wearing material for a book designed for frequent, and perhaps rough, handling. Another point leading us towards this possibility is the cost-conscious construction of the binding which is composed of two pieces of vellum, one covering the front board and extending around the spine and about a quarter of the way across the rear board, where it overlays another piece of slightly different coloured vellum. However, the tooling is unbroken leaving us to suspect that this was as originally bound. An interesting little book we submit.

(Ex aedibus Quentelianis) Cologne 1531 Contemporary red vellum, rebacked. Folio . Second revised edition (1st: Landshut, 1524) with a new preface dated 1531 and very large title woodcut. The work has been, incorrectly, attributed to Johannes Ebser, Bishop of Chiemsee. Berthold Pürstinger (1465-1543), bishop of Chiemsee, was "often employed in important matters by Archbishop Leonard (d. 1519) and by his successor, Mathäus Lang (d. 1519). ... Lang's energetic reformatory measures accorded with Berthold's deepest wishes, and he seems to have both inspired them and given them expression. When Berthold was sent to suppress the Lutherans in Kitzbühel he accomplished little, his retiring nature being unfitted for decisive action. ... His Onus ecclesiae had appeared in 1524 and Archbishop Lang was anxious that Berthold would continue his literary work. ... "Bethold's writings have far more interest than the deeds of his active and public life; and they reveal the man with no less clearness. The Onus ecclesiae was published anonymously (Landshut, 1524, Cologne, 1531, 2d ed. revised, Augsburg, 1531), but there is no doubt about his authorship. As early as 1548 it appears in a Venetian index of heretical books and in 1550 in the Louvain index. ... Berthold's purpose is to call to repentance and reform; for this end he depicts in dark colors the 'burden' which lies on the entire Church--a twofold weight of guilt and impending punishment, in which all are involved, but especially Rome and the clergy. The Turks, who were then threatening eastern Europe, are an instrument of the merited doom; and the 'reformation' by which the Church was already divided forebodes more to come. ... Joachim of Fiore, the revelations of St. Bridget, and other productions of the contemporary medieval prophetism furnished material, with which personal observations and experience are interwoven, so that the whole presents a well-ordered and illuminating picture of conditions in South Germany and the archdiocese of Salzburg. ..." (New Schaff-Herzog, IX, p. 360). This copy, like the Durham copy described in Copac, has pasted onto title page above the title a lable with the words in sixteenth century type: "Reuerendi in Christo Patris ac domini, D. Ioannis, olim Episcopi Chemensis, & Reuerendiss. Archiepiscopi Saltzburgensis a Suffragijs." [2] 5-125 leaves (i.e.123 leaves: leaves 3 & 4 not issued with this work). Large title-page woodcut (Dodgson II, 428). Some marginal handsoiling. With 16th century printed label on title-page (see below) as on the Durham copy described in Copac. Signature on front paste-down of the bishop of Chiemsee: "Joannis Episcopi Chemensis." Neander Library book- plate (deaccessioned). § VD 16, P 2932; Adams E-20 (under Ebser); BM/STC German 662

Ce livre, qui constitue la premiere chronique de Hainaut avait ete composee en latin par le franciscain Jacques de Guyse mort a Valenciennes en 1399 et originaire de Mons. Le propos de l'ouvrage depasse largement le cadre fixe par le titre : l'auteur y parle egalement de la France, des Pays-Bas, de l'Allemagne, de l'Angleterre etc. Belle publication gothique de Galliot du Pre, dans la lignee des autres chroniques qu'il imprima a la meme epoque. D'apres Moreau, les deux premiers volumes seraient sortis des presses de Guillaume de Bossozel, le troisieme de celles d'Antoine Couteau. L'ouvrage comporte, outre les encadrements des feuillets de titre, trois belles illustrations gravees sur bois. La premiere est la meme que celle utilisee pour La Toison d'or de Fillastre (Paris, Francois Regnault, 1516) qui represente un roi entoure de sa cour dans une salle a l'architecture Renaissance. Les deux autres sont au feuillet 6 du tome III, avec en particulier au v° une belle figure representant le roi entoure de sa cour, avec au premier plan un scribe ecrivant et au fond un combat de chevaliers et un armurier forgeant une piece. Brun, 207; Moreau-Renouard IV, nos 178 et 440; Brunet II, 1836; De Backer, 134; Beres, Des Valois, n°139.

DIODORUS SICULUS.
OPERA [SELECTA].
|
Basileae: Excvdebat Henricvs Petrvs, 1531 - 12 p.l., 374 (i.e., 363), [1] pp. Attractive recent retrospective speckled calf, raised bands, original titling in ink along bottom of textblock. Woodcut historiated initials, printer's device on verso of last leaf. Title page with early ink inscription at foot, and remnants of an erased oval stamp. Expert older (18th century?) paper repair strengthening lower (blank) portion of last printed leaf, head of preliminary leaves lightly dampstained, index and a few gatherings toward rear with light mottling, other minor defects, but AN EXCELLENT COPY, the text generally very clean and fresh, and in an unworn sympathetic binding. Hoffman I, 560. This item contains selections in Latin translation from the "Histories" or "Library of History" of Diodorus Siculus, which, at the date of the present publication, had not yet been printed in its entirety. Our volume contains Books I-VI and XVI and XVII, the latter two translated by Angelus Cospus, the other by Poggio Bracciolini. Until archaeologists began digging in Egypt, and until they could decipher discovered inscriptions, all we knew about ancient Egypt was based on what the Greeks Diodorus and Herodotus, along with Manetho the Egyptian priest, wrote about the location and its civilization. And this fact explains the commercial feasibility of a publication like the present item, issued for an avid readership in the 16th century, a period of Egyptomania. The text of Diodorus (first century B.C.) derives from several older and sometimes obscure authors, a number of whose works have perished, and for that reason the work is useful, especially when Diodorus tells the history of his own island. He is, for example, the chief source on the career of Dionysius, the fourth century B.C. tyrant of Syracuse. Diodorus is believed to have based Book XVII largely on the account of Clitarchus, who interviewed Alexander's veterans in Egyptian Alexandria, where they settled, but who was not averse to occasional romanticizing. In addition to the text of Diodorus, our volume contains a brief life of Alexander by Johannes Monachus as well as a few very short selections from Boccaccio's book on famous women. $800 [Attributes: Signed Copy]

RARE EDITION PUBLIEE PAR GALLIOT DU PRE DE L'UN DES LIVRES LES PLUS POPULAIRES DU MOYEN AGE. Ouvrage de vulgarisation en francais, le Livre de Sidrac ou Livre de la Fontaine de toutes sciences, parut pour la premiere fois a la fin du treizieme siecle. Il s'agit d'une vaste compilation a travers laquelle l'auteur entend transmettre un savoir a la fois religieux, ethique, medical et naturel. Base sur un dialogue entre le Philosophe chretien Sidrac et le roi Boctus de Bactriane, l'ouvrage se compose de 613 questions dans sa version courte a 1225 dans sa version longue, qui apparaissent dans le desordre et touchent des sujets aussi divers que Dieu, les anges, la creation, l'homme, la meteorologie, le gouvernement des princesa On y trouve notamment, pour la premiere fois en langue vernaculaire, un article sur la meteorologie. Selon une hypothese de Charles Langlois l'auteur serait « un franc " sans doute un clerc " de l'Orient latin. Le nom de Sidrac fait reference au Shadrach du livre de Daniel, qui refuse comme Sidrac, de se prosterner devant les idoles. » (Benoit Beyer de Ryke. « Les encyclopedies medievales, un etat de la question. » Pecia, Ressources en medievistique, 1 (2002), 9-42.) Le livre de Sidrac connut un grand succes du Moyen-Age jusqu'a la renaissance ; il figurait dans toutes les bibliotheques princieres du quatorzieme et du quinzieme siecle. Le texte francais est connu par 63 manuscrits au moins ; il a ete imprime pour la premiere fois en 1486, par Antoine Verard a Paris, puis reimprime onze fois entre 1486 et 1533. Cette edition propose 1084 questions ; elle est, d'apres Brunet, la premiere a avoir ete imprimee en lettres rondes. L'impression est due a Pierre Vidoue pour le celebre libraire Galliot du Pre et comprend de nombreuses et belles lettrines a fond crible. Le titre est imprime en rouge et noir. L'ouvrage est illustre de quatre figures sur bois, l'une sur le titre, l'une a la fin de la table, une troisieme au commencement du texte et la derniere constituant la marque de l'imprimeur au verso du dernier feuillet. Remarquable exemplaire conserve dans une riche reliure Empire au decor aux mille points, executee dans les annees 1820-1830 dans le gout des plus belles reliures produites par Francois Bozerian, Courteval et Larriviere.

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.

Troisieme impression juntine de ce celebre ouvrage, copiee sur l'originale aldine de 1528. Ecrit entre 1508 et 1516, mais publie pour la premiere fois en Italie en 1528, cet ouvrage est l'un des plus caracteristiques de la Renaissance italienne.

(Ex aedibus Quentelianis) Cologne 1531 Contemporary red vellum, rebacked. Folio . Second revised edition (1st: Landshut, 1524) with a new preface dated 1531 and very large title woodcut. The work has been, incorrectly, attributed to Johannes Ebser, Bishop of Chiemsee. Berthold Pürstinger (1465-1543), bishop of Chiemsee, was "often employed in important matters by Archbishop Leonard (d. 1519) and by his successor, Mathäus Lang (d. 1519). ... Lang's energetic reformatory measures accorded with Berthold's deepest wishes, and he seems to have both inspired them and given them expression. When Berthold was sent to suppress the Lutherans in Kitzbühel he accomplished little, his retiring nature being unfitted for decisive action. ... His Onus ecclesiae had appeared in 1524 and Archbishop Lang was anxious that Berthold would continue his literary work. ... "Bethold's writings have far more interest than the deeds of his active and public life; and they reveal the man with no less clearness. The Onus ecclesiae was published anonymously (Landshut, 1524, Cologne, 1531, 2d ed. revised, Augsburg, 1531), but there is no doubt about his authorship. As early as 1548 it appears in a Venetian index of heretical books and in 1550 in the Louvain index. ... Berthold's purpose is to call to repentance and reform; for this end he depicts in dark colors the 'burden' which lies on the entire Church--a twofold weight of guilt and impending punishment, in which all are involved, but especially Rome and the clergy. The Turks, who were then threatening eastern Europe, are an instrument of the merited doom; and the 'reformation' by which the Church was already divided forebodes more to come. ... Joachim of Fiore, the revelations of St. Bridget, and other productions of the contemporary medieval prophetism furnished material, with which personal observations and experience are interwoven, so that the whole presents a well-ordered and illuminating picture of conditions in South Germany and the archdiocese of Salzburg. ..." (New Schaff-Herzog, IX, p. 360). This copy, like the Durham copy described in Copac, has pasted onto title page above the title a lable with the words in sixteenth century type: "Reuerendi in Christo Patris ac domini, D. Ioannis, olim Episcopi Chemensis, & Reuerendiss. Archiepiscopi Saltzburgensis a Suffragijs." [2] 5-125 leaves (i.e.123 leaves: leaves 3 & 4 not issued with this work). Large title-page woodcut (Dodgson II, 428). Some marginal handsoiling. With 16th century printed label on title-page (see below) as on the Durham copy described in Copac. Signature on front paste-down of the bishop of Chiemsee: "Joannis Episcopi Chemensis." Neander Library book- plate (deaccessioned). § VD 16, P 2932; Adams E-20 (under Ebser); BM/STC German 662

Ephemerides
|
Huldenrichum Morhart, Tubingen:: Huldenrichum Morhart,, 1531.. FIRST EDITION.. 4to.. Woodcut portrait of author on title has been ascribed to Hans Holbein the younger; title in facsimile on contemporary paper. Text woodcuts throughout. Astronomical tables for 1532-1551 with half-titles for each year. Bound in blind-tooled pigskin over boards, with clasps, in a contemporary style; a couple of preliminary and endleaves frayed at edges, light dampstains and minor browning, otherwise the text is on heavy paper and is in generally very good condition. Contemporary inscriptions on front blank, one dated 1534. The rarity of this present Ephemerides has been noted by Delambre. Brunet only knew of a reimpression of 1533. We have located copies at the Adler Planetarium and the University of Michigan; the Harvard copy is incomplete as is the University of Oklahoma's copy. Stoeffler's astronomical tables are basically a continuation of the tables of Regiomontanus.#11;#11;Johann Stoeffler (1452-1531), mathematician, astronomer and cosmographer, was professor of astronomy at Tubingen, and teacher of Melanchthon, Schoener, and Sebastian Muenster. His calendars, almanacks and astronomical tables enjoyed a great reputation throughout Europe for half a century. He was the first to show that the Julian calendar could be brought into harmony with astronomical events. In spite of all his precautions he died the very day as he had predicted in his horoscope

SIGNED by the President beneath a color image of the White House on the limitation leaf, #1531 of an unstated limitation of 2500 copies, which is often found removed from the book as it makes a beautiful display piece. A voluminous book of information and advertising (many liquor ads) that wasused as a fund raiser for the Democratic Party containing FDR's acceptance speech, the Democratic Platform of 1936, and biographies of all the Cabinetmembers as well as articles on Congress, the Supreme Court, the Cabinet departments, and reproductions of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Some light and scattered foxing with the typical discoloration to the edges of the endpapers. The page with FDR's signature is Fine. This is a presentation copy, as a number of copies were, with the recipient's name in gilt at the bottom of the front cover, in this case the"Bethlehem Steel Company Library." Though it was in that once powerful company's library, there are no library markings whatsoever. The binding has some wear to the spine tips with slight loss of leather at the heel andlight wear to the corners.. Very Good copy and increasingly uncommon..

Decorated initials. EDiodorus Siculus (c40 B.C.), a Sicilian contemporary of Julis Caesar, wrote in Greek...a history of the world, with Rome for centre, from mythological times to Cesar's conquest of Gaul...Diodorus is one of the sources of our knowledge of the legends of mythology. He traces to Egypt the origin of many of the mythological gods. In others he sees mortals who have attained immortality by discovering the arts and benefits of civilization, e.g. Apollo, the inventor of music, Poseidon of ships, Dionysus the discoverer of wine."

(Ex aedibus Quentelianis), Cologne 1531 - Contemporary red vellum, rebacked. Folio . Second revised edition (1st: Landshut, 1524) with a new preface dated 1531 and very large title woodcut. The work has been, incorrectly, attributed to Johannes Ebser, Bishop of Chiemsee. Berthold Pürstinger (1465-1543), bishop of Chiemsee, was "often employed in important matters by Archbishop Leonard (d. 1519) and by his successor, Mathäus Lang (d. 1519). . Lang's energetic reformatory measures accorded with Berthold's deepest wishes, and he seems to have both inspired them and given them expression. When Berthold was sent to suppress the Lutherans in Kitzbühel he accomplished little, his retiring nature being unfitted for decisive action. . His Onus ecclesiae had appeared in 1524 and Archbishop Lang was anxious that Berthold would continue his literary work. . "Bethold's writings have far more interest than the deeds of his active and public life; and they reveal the man with no less clearness. The Onus ecclesiae was published anonymously (Landshut, 1524, Cologne, 1531, 2d ed. revised, Augsburg, 1531), but there is no doubt about his authorship. As early as 1548 it appears in a Venetian index of heretical books and in 1550 in the Louvain index. . Berthold's purpose is to call to repentance and reform; for this end he depicts in dark colors the 'burden' which lies on the entire Church--a twofold weight of guilt and impending punishment, in which all are involved, but especially Rome and the clergy. The Turks, who were then threatening eastern Europe, are an instrument of the merited doom; and the 'reformation' by which the Church was already divided forebodes more to come. . Joachim of Fiore, the revelations of St. Bridget, and other productions of the contemporary medieval prophetism furnished material, with which personal observations and experience are interwoven, so that the whole presents a well-ordered and illuminating picture of conditions in South Germany and the archdiocese of Salzburg. ." (New Schaff-Herzog, IX, p. 360). This copy, like the Durham copy described in Copac, has pasted onto title page above the title a lable with the words in sixteenth century type: "Reuerendi in Christo Patris ac domini, D. Ioannis, olim Episcopi Chemensis, & Reuerendiss. Archiepiscopi Saltzburgensis a Suffragijs." [2] 5-125 leaves (i.e.123 leaves: leaves 3 & 4 not issued with this work). Large title-page woodcut (Dodgson II, 428). Some marginal handsoiling. With 16th century printed label on title-page (see below) as on the Durham copy described in Copac. Signature on front paste-down of the bishop of Chiemsee: "Joannis Episcopi Chemensis." Neander Library book- plate (deaccessioned). § VD 16, P 2932; Adams E-20 (under Ebser); BM/STC German 662.

[Frankfurt am Main, Christian Egenolf], (1531).. Kl.-4to (191 x 140 mm). Mit halbseitigem Titel-Holzschnitt (Innenansicht einer Mineralienhandlung). (XXVII, [1] Bl. (das letzte leer). Moderner Halbkalbslederband, mit Rückentitel in Goldprägung.. Erstausgabe der Urform des 'Kunstbüchlein', die erste gedruckte deutschsprachige Quellenschrift mit Rezepten zur Metallverarbeitung und Alchemie. Traditionell funktionierte die Welt des Handwerks bis zur Renaissance unabhängig vom geschriebenen Wort, erwarb doch der Berufsmann seine Kenntnisse allein durch praktisches Handeln unter einem Meister und nicht durch das Studium von Unterrichtwerken. Zu den bedeutendsten Beiträgen des Buchdrucks im 16. Jahrhundert gehört denn auch die Bereitstellung technischer Leitfäden und technologischer Handbücher für den Handwerksmann. Als bedeutendster und populärster deutscher Fachtext dieser Richtung gilt das sogenannte Kunstbüchlein, dessen Beginn unser Text markiert. Die Georg Agricola zugeschriebene Verfasserschaft dieses für die Verbreitung technischen, chemischen und kunsttechnologischen Wissens in der Neuzeit höchst bedeutsamen Werks, geht auf Karl Christian Schmieders Geschichte der Alchemie von 1832 zurück, bleibt aber ungesichert. Der aus spätmittelalterlichen Handschriften zusammengetragene Fachtext mit Anweisungen für Metallprüfung und -bearbeitung, für die Herstellung von Legierungen, Farben und Tinten, sowie chemischen und alchemistischen Rezepturen wurde in der Folge von nahezu allen, vor allem in Süddeutschland aufgelegten, volkstümlich belehrenden Kunst- und Probierbüchlein verbreitet, wie z.B. in Petrus Ketzenmachers Alchimia von 1539. Das bis zum Beginn des 18. Jahrhunderts in mindestens zehn Auflagen nachgedruckte Augsburger Kunstbüchlin von 1535 übernahm nicht nur sämtliche hier erstmals gedruckten Rezepte, sondern beliess sie auch in der selben Reihenfolge. Es sollte "allen fürwitzigen Alchimisten und kunstbaren Werckleuten", wie Goldschmieden, Malern und Illuministen, aber auch den Münzbeamten, als Rezeptsammlung dienen. "The remarkable staying-power of the 1531 receipts ... [and] that they had such a long life more or less independently of the Kunstbüchlein of 1535 and its types is, I believe, due to the widening readership ... and to their incompatibility with the more complex metallurgical processes, practicable only by a much more skilled and well-equipped, but more restricted craft-audience" (David L. Paisey). Der Buchdruck ermöglichte also erstmals eine Verbreitung berufsbezogenen Wissens, unabhängig von der bis dahin üblichen landschaftlich begrenzten oder werkstattgebundenen Überlieferung. Die Praktikabilität der enthaltenen Rezepturen wird durch die weite Verbreitung auf das Eindrücklichste belegt und lässt so Schlüsse zu über das kunsttechnische Wissen an der Schwelle zwischen mittelalterlicher Tradition und neuzeitlichen Erkenntnissen der Renaissance. Gedruckt wurde unser Text - ohne Hinweis auf Drucker und Druckort - von dem seit 1530 in Frankfurt am Main als selbständiger Druckerverleger wirkenden Christian Egenolf (1502-1555), der sich vor allem auf wissenschaftliche, philologische und historische Texte spezialisierte. Das am Schluss gedruckte sechszeilige Gedicht "Acht stuck volgen der Alchamei // Rawch, aeschen, vil wort, und untrew // Erseufftzen tieff, und schwer arbeyt // Unwird, armut, und dürfftigkeit // Wiltu des allen bleiben frei // So hut dich vor der Alchamei//" ist nach V. F. Brüning "ein Vorläufer(?) des berühmten Kometengedichts 'Acht ding sein, die ein Comet ... ". Der halbseitige Holzschnitt auf dem Titelblatt zeigt den Blick in das Innere einer Edelsteinhandlung. - Ein tadellos sauberes, breitrandiges Exemplar, von grösster Seltenheit. ZENSUS: HAB Wolfenbüttel (3 Exx.); UB Kiel; NLB Hannover; UB Frankfurt/M.; Preussische Staatsbibliothek Berlin; SUB Augsburg; University Library Glasgow; British Library London; Österreichische Nationalbibliothek Wien; Nationalbibliothek Budapest; Hagley Museum and Library, Wilmington USA. - Das einzige von uns auf dem Markt nachweisbare Exemplar ist inkomplett und wurde am 4.-5. April 1978 bei Tenner (Nr. 288) verauktioniert. Besitzerschildchen von Bernard Ephraim Julius Pagel, Britischer Astrophysiker und Bibliophiler (1930-2007).

Editio princeps of the prototype of the first craft manual printed in German, with practical details of metal treating and with alchemical recipes, collectively known as Kunstbuechlein (Skills booklets). Traditionally the artisan's world existed independently of the written word, and crafts-men learned primarly by apprenticeship rather than following written instructions. One of typography's most important contribution to 16th century literature was to produce books dealing with the marvels of nature, with popular science and medicine, and with technical manuals and technological treatises detailing the manual side of the arts. The first of these printed how-to-do-it books is the present text, which was absorbed into a very long series of manuals published up to the early 18th century. The unsecured authorship of Georg Agricola has been assigned by Karl Christian Schmieder in his History of Alchemy of 1832, "but there is lack of evidence in support of this view and it is justifiably doubted by Gmelin" (John Ferguson). The recipes were compiled from late medieval texts which had been long and well-known to alchemists, matallurgists, and others. The title of the book is an early use of the word for purely chemical processes. It is one of the genre known in English as books of secrets. The receipts are not arranged in any regular fashion, but may be divided into the two main headings: Substances and Processes. Among the substances mentioned are gold, silver, mercury, antimony, tin, lead, bismuth, copper and iron. Operations mentioned are combinations that made brass, amalgams of gold and silver, and the separation of gold by aquaregia. The processes described are all simple in nature, and relate mainly to gilding, tinning, silvering, oxidizing the various metals, precipaitation, crystallization, roasting, fusion, and cupellation. The work paints a fairly accurate picture of the practical chemical knowledge at the beginning of the 16th century. The contents of the book are of an entirely practical nature with little speculative alchemy. Its matter refers to I) Substances, mainly metallic, though 'acids' and 'salines' are included, and to II) Processes. Among the substances mentioned are gold, silver, mercury, antimony, tin, lead, bismuth, copper and iron. Operations mentioned are combinations that made brass, amalgams of gold and silver, and the separation of gold by aquaregia. The processes described are all simple in nature, and relate mainly to gilding, tinning, silvering, oxidizing the various metals, precipaitation, crystallization, roasting, fusion, and cupellation. Although not directly related to mineralogy, this little receipt book that deals with alchemy, assaying, mining and such had the very practical value of disseminating techniques in chemical processes to a large audience. This in turn would influence the development of mineralogy, metallurgy and chemistry as they in turn became true scientific disciplines. "The remarkable staying-power of the 1531 receipts ... [and] that they had such a long life more or less independently of the Kunstbüchlein of 1535 and its types is, I believe, due to the widening readership ... and to their incompatibility with the more complex metallurgical processes, practicable only by a much more skilled and well-equipped, but more restricted craft-audience" (David L. Paisey). At the end of the book is a poem in six verses considered by Brüning a precursor of the celebrated 'Kometenpoem' (comet poem): 'Acht ding sein, die ein Comet ... ". The half-page woodcut on title offers an insight view into a jeweler's workshop. - An excellent, fresh and wide-margined copy of this rarity. - Modern half calf, gilt lettering on spine.

Augsburg, Heinrich Steiner, 1531. Mit ganzs. Titelholzschnitt, 49 halbseitigen Holzschnitten im Text von Hans Weiditz, Jörg Breu u.a. sowie zahlreichen Endstücken und Initialen in Holzschnitt. Titel, (3), CXIX Bll. Kl.-folio. HLdr. d. 18. Jhdts. mit Rückenschild und reicher Rückenvergoldung. Bibliotheks-Rückenschild (Ecken und Kapitale teilw. stärker berieben, Lederrücken mit 3 kleinen Fehlstellen). Aus der Bibliothek der Fürstlichen Bibliothek Donaueschingen mit deren Stempel auf dem Titel und am Schluss. Erste deutsche Ausgabe der nur in einem Auszug von Justinus aus dem 3. Jahrhundert überlieferten “Philippischen Geschichten”, der frühen Universalgeschichte des Südgalliers Trogus Pompeius (um 20 v. Chr.). Die erhaltenen Teile umfassen die Geschichte von Assyrien, Medien, Persien, Makedonien und der Diadochenreiche. Nur die letzten Bücher handeln von den Römern selbst; das letzte Kapitel “Von dem land Hyspanien” schliesst mit dem Sieg Augustus’ über Spanien im Jahr 19 v. Chr und war für Boner Grund, seine Übersetzung Karl V. zu widmen. Der Übersetzer der vorliegenden ersten deutschen Ausgabe, Hieronymus Boner, war Stadtschultheiss in Colmar und literarisch mit zahlreichen Übersetzungen antiker Autoren hervorgetreten. Die Abbildungen zeigen hauptsächlich Schlachtenszenen zu Wasser und zu Land aber auch Empfangsszenen am Hof sowie (idealisierte) Städteansichten. Nach Dodgson verwendete Steiner 18 der Weiditzschen Holzschnitte bereits in den seinen Ausgaben von Ciceros “De officiis” (1531) und in Petrarcas “Trostspiegel” (1532), während einige hier zum ersten Mal erscheinen. Der Holzschnitt auf fol. XIr stammt ursprünglich aus der 1522 bei Ramminger in Augsburg erschienenen “Chronik und Hystoria” (STC 204). Eine Titelauflage erschien 1532. – VD 16 T 2069; STC, (German), 871; Fairfax Murray 231; Schweiger II/1, 495; Worstbrock, Deutsche Antikenrezeption 1450-1550 (1976), 242; Dodgson II, 143, Nr. 14.

Durchgehender Wurmgang im Aussensteg. Innen meist sauber. Ein gutes Exemplar dieses schönen Steiner-Druckes.

1531, facsimile by the Scholar Press & the Yushodo Press, London & Tokyo 1980. - Small quarto. 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.

Mundus Emblematicus Studies in Neo-Latin Emblem Books
|
Brepols Publishers. New PLEASE NOTE that we do not offer expedited shipping. Orders placed with the priority shipping option will automatically be canceled. The thirteen articles in this volume deal with the Neo-Latin emblem book after the birth of the genre with Andrea Alciato's "Emblematum libellus (1531). While the interest in emblematics has grown considerably during the last decades, the seminal Neo-Latin production has received relatively little attention. In "Mundus Emblematicus an international team of experts in the field makes this part of the emblem tradition accessible to a broad scholarly audience. The articles cover a variety of emblem books published at the time, ranging from influential humanist collections to alchemist or religious emblems. In each paper, subjects include the historical context of the work and its makers, the relation between word and image, the structure of the collection as a whole, and the emblematic game. Moreover, several articles explore the interaction between the emblem and connected literary phenomena, like the commonplace-book, the fable or the use of commentaries. All papers are in English and all examples from Latin texts are translated. ISBN10: 250351202X.

Paris, Simon de Colines, 1531. Only Colines edition of the surviving books of Diodorus' Library of History. The Greek "editio princeps" was first published in 1559 by Henri Estienne. Composed in the first century BC, the entire work consisted of forty books (only books 1-5 and 11-20 still extant), which traced "world history" (i.e. Greco-Roman) from the era of mythological pre-history to the beginning of Julius Caesar's Gallic Wars. The present edition contains the first five books as well as a portion of the sixth, focusing on the pre-Trojan war mythical era. The Greek historian was born in Agyron, Sicily. His main merit is to have assembled quotations from historical sources otherwise lost. Historical facts and mythology are treated as equal. This Latin translation is by the Italian humanist and historian Giovanni Francesco Poggio Bracchiolini (1380-1459), who dedicated it to Pope Nicolas V (1397-1455), founder of the Vatican Library. - Fine copy, printed in Italics throughout. - STC (French) 135; Adams D-467; Index aurel. 153.740; Renouard (Colines) 177.

(Ex aedibus Quentelianis), Cologne 1531 - Contemporary red vellum, rebacked. Folio . Second revised edition (1st: Landshut, 1524) with a new preface dated 1531 and very large title woodcut. The work has been, incorrectly, attributed to Johannes Ebser, Bishop of Chiemsee. Berthold Pürstinger (1465-1543), bishop of Chiemsee, was "often employed in important matters by Archbishop Leonard (d. 1519) and by his successor, Mathäus Lang (d. 1519). . Lang's energetic reformatory measures accorded with Berthold's deepest wishes, and he seems to have both inspired them and given them expression. When Berthold was sent to suppress the Lutherans in Kitzbühel he accomplished little, his retiring nature being unfitted for decisive action. . His Onus ecclesiae had appeared in 1524 and Archbishop Lang was anxious that Berthold would continue his literary work. . "Bethold's writings have far more interest than the deeds of his active and public life; and they reveal the man with no less clearness. The Onus ecclesiae was published anonymously (Landshut, 1524, Cologne, 1531, 2d ed. revised, Augsburg, 1531), but there is no doubt about his authorship. As early as 1548 it appears in a Venetian index of heretical books and in 1550 in the Louvain index. . Berthold's purpose is to call to repentance and reform; for this end he depicts in dark colors the 'burden' which lies on the entire Church--a twofold weight of guilt and impending punishment, in which all are involved, but especially Rome and the clergy. The Turks, who were then threatening eastern Europe, are an instrument of the merited doom; and the 'reformation' by which the Church was already divided forebodes more to come. . Joachim of Fiore, the revelations of St. Bridget, and other productions of the contemporary medieval prophetism furnished material, with which personal observations and experience are interwoven, so that the whole presents a well-ordered and illuminating picture of conditions in South Germany and the archdiocese of Salzburg. ." (New Schaff-Herzog, IX, p. 360). This copy, like the Durham copy described in Copac, has pasted onto title page above the title a lable with the words in sixteenth century type: "Reuerendi in Christo Patris ac domini, D. Ioannis, olim Episcopi Chemensis, & Reuerendiss. Archiepiscopi Saltzburgensis a Suffragijs." [2] 5-125 leaves (i.e.123 leaves: leaves 3 & 4 not issued with this work). Large title-page woodcut (Dodgson II, 428). Some marginal handsoiling. With 16th century printed label on title-page (see below) as on the Durham copy described in Copac. Signature on front paste-down of the bishop of Chiemsee: "Joannis Episcopi Chemensis." Neander Library book- plate (deaccessioned). § VD 16, P 2932; Adams E-20 (under Ebser); BM/STC German 662.

THE DEMOCRATIC BOOK 1936
|
First Edition. leather. Folio (11" x 14") in the original full brown leather with gilt lettering onthe front cover and the original pictorial wraps bound in; 384 pages. SIGNED by the President beneath a color image of the White House on the limitation leaf, #1531 of an unstated limitation of 2500 copies, which is often found removed from the book as it makes a beautiful display piece. A voluminous book of information and advertising (many liquor ads) that wasused as a fund raiser for the Democratic Party containing FDR's acceptance speech, the Democratic Platform of 1936, and biographies of all the Cabinetmembers as well as articles on Congress, the Supreme Court, the Cabinet departments, and reproductions of the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Some light and scattered foxing with the typical discoloration to the edges of the endpapers. The page with FDR's signature is Fine. This is a presentation copy, as a number of copies were, with the recipient's name in gilt at the bottom of the front cover, in this case the"Bethlehem Steel Company Library." Though it was in that once powerful company's library, there are no library markings whatsoever. The binding has some wear to the spine tips with slight loss of leather at the heel andlight wear to the corners.. Very Good copy and increasingly uncommon.. Keywords: Politics, Americana, Autographs, Signed, Presidential, Franklin Roosevelt, Limited, FDR, Modern Firsts.
