PATRIZI Senese, Francesco /AURIGNY, Gilles D! Le livre de Police Humaine, contenant brieve description de plusieurs choses dignes de memoire: si comme d!un gouvernement d!un Royaume, et de toute administration de la Republique, ou sont assemblees par un recueil succinct, maintes bell
Paris: Charles l!Angelie, 1544. Extremely rare of the first French edition of this digest of the two political works by Francesco Patrizi (1413-1494) marking the first appearance in French ! and in any vernacular ! of passages from his work on monarchies. Patrizi!s treatises on governments are considered precursors of Macchiavelli!s Prince and have been proven to have served as models for Thomas Elyot!s Governor (1531), yet Patrizi remains a curiously understudied figure.Born in Siena, Patrizi studied alongside Enea Silvio Piccolomini, the future Pope Pius II, and entertained friendships with humanists like Panormita, Filolfo, Tranchedini and Battista Guarino. He entered political life in his native city and served as ambassador to Florence, Rimini, Emperor Frederick III and the Holy See. Implicated in a charge of treason, he was imprisoned, tortured and then exiled. He took on ecclesiastic robes and, when Piccolomini became pope, was pardoned and made Bishop of Gaeta in 1461.Patrizi is !a man of wide interests and broad attainments [who] has never been studied comprehensively.! (Schmitt) His literary output is virtually unstudied. In politics, his two main works are De institutione reipublicae, finished between 1465 and 1471, and its counterpart on monarchies, De regno et Regis institutione, written between 1481 and 1484. His political works show off the encyclopedic scope of his studies, covering the arts, sciences, agriculture, commerce, architecture and town planning, gymnastics, horse-riding and hunting, games and theater. Throughout, Patrizi!s approach is practical, investigating the effects these pursuits have on the citizens and rulers of a state, and how they can be employed to maximize the public good. Although the two works appear contradictory, Patrizi!s vote ultimately comes down on the side of republics, and his work on princes is above all a cautionary manual on how to avoid the pitfalls of absolute power. Even in De regno, Patrizi defends freedom and the freedom of opinion.Patrizi!s individualism is tempered by a strong social conscience. He attacks usury and defends the !middle class,! as well as servants, whom he writes one should not regard as slaves: no man may enrich himself at the expense of another. His rationalist and pragmatic approach leads to arguments that appear to be well ahead of their time, such as his defense of the right to abortion and contraception. In the judgment of one scholar, he is !typical of the passage from the transcendental medieval world to the naturalism and voluntarism of the Renaissance. Patrizi announces Macchiavelli in many points, who will be better understood when his precedents are illuminated.! (Battaglia, p.x) De Reipublicae was widely disseminated in France throughout the sixteenth century, but curiously not in Italy, where it was never published in its entirety. Domenico Bassi suggests that both works were used in schools in France. The first edition of De Reipublicae came out in 1494 and was followed by nine others between 1518 and 1594. The manuscript of De Regis was brought over to France by Jean Prevost, counselor in the Paris parliament, and first published in 1519. French editions of De Reipublicae appeared in 1520 and 1532, but it was not until 1577 that De Regis saw a vernacular edition. The present work, drawn from both of Patrizi!s texts, is therefore the first appearance of his writings on monarchies in the vernacular. The first English edition appeared in 1576, meaning that Thomas Elyot, whose Book named The Governour is directly modeled on De Regis, must have read Patrizi either in Latin or French. The editor, Gilles d!Aurigny (d. 1553), was a French poet, !who tends to work like a parasite on others ! he contributed to the edition of Martial d!Auvergne!s Arrests d!Amours, adapts Erasmus to monarchist ends in his edition of the Institution du Prince, dabbles in religious verse [!] d!Aurigny is a late rhetoriqueur.! (A Literary History of France, II, pp. 121-2) The work appeared in a variant issue by the same publisher the same year under the title: Le guido[n] de police humaine and was reissued in 1546, 1549, 1550, and 1553. OCLC locates only one copy (LC) of any edition of this work (the variant, either issue, Le guido[n] de police humaine); we have also located copies at the Harvard Law School and Yale. OCLC : LC (Le guidon de police humaine). For earlier French editions of De Reipublicae, OCLC lists LC (1520) and Chicago (1532).

Cicero, Marcus Tullius. Le Tusculane recate in italiano. 144 num. Bl. Mit 2 Druckermarken. Pergamentbd d. Z. (kleine Randl�suren).

Mit Portr�t Ciceros auf dem Titel und Druckermarke am Schluss. Venedig, Giovanni da la Chiesa, 1544. I. Erste Ausgabe dieser �bersetzung der 'Tusculanae disputationes' Ciceros durch Sebastiano Fausto da Longiano (ca. 1502-1565). Von Gamba als selten, aber "roh" ("incondita versione") bezeichnet, wobei der Bibliograph offenbar kein Exemplar gesehen hat, da er sich auf Informationen anderer beruft und Fausto nur als angeblichen Herausgeber nennt, w�hrend die Widmung und ein Hinweis an die Leser eindeutig mit seinem Namen gezeichnet sind. Fausto �bertrug zahlreiche antike Schriftsteller in das Italienische und gab auch einen Dialog �ber die Kunst des �bersetzens heraus. Ber�hmt, jedoch wenig schmeichelhaft ist das Urteil von Girolamo Muzio, wonach Fausto von der italienischen Sprache soviel verstehe wie ein Esel vom Spielen auf der Leier (zitiert bei Gamba 1389). – Wenig fleckig. – Gamba 2568. Graesse II 185. – II. Erste Ausgabe dieser �bersetzung von Ciceros 'De officiis' und kleineren Schriften durch den Humanisten und Theologen Antonio Brucioli (1487-1566), dessen wichtigstes Werk seine reich kommentierte italienische Bibel�bersetzung ist, die in vielen Anmerkungen die Institution der katholischen Kirche kritisiert. Auf Reisen nach Frankreich und Deutschland lernte Brucioli die Ideen der Reformation kennen, die er zeitlebens in vielen Punkten vertrat, ohne je f�rmlich dem Katholizismus zu entsagen. Angeblich las er sogar �ffentlich aus Luthers Werken, notorisch waren seine republikanische Einstellung sowie seine sehr kritische Haltung gegen�ber dem Klerus. Nachdem er Florenz verlassen musste, geriet er auch in Venedig mehrfach in Konflikt mit der Inquisition, trotz der Protektion einflussreicher G�nner, die ihm seine beliebte Bibel�bersetzung eingebracht hatte. Alle seine Werke kamen auf den 'Index librorum prohibitorum', 1558 musste er �ffentlich seinen Ideen abschw�ren, aber auch danach verh�rte ihn die Inquisition erneut. Er starb nach Kerkerhaft in sehr �rmlichen Verh�ltnissen. – ICCU 14606. Graesse II 185. [Bookseller: Antiquariat Wolfgang Braecklein]

Wrappers slightly worn and torn. Minor soiling and browning; two small embossed collector's stamps to modern endpaper. . First Edition in this form. Very rare. Lewis I 58. New Vogel 2401. RISM 1544/17 (no holdings in the U.S.).#11;#11;"De Rore was one of the most important composers of the middle decades of the 16th century. Although he lived to be only 49 years old, his music, particularly his Italian madrigals, underwent profound changes in style from his early to his late works. His innovations both in harmonic language and in texture created a dramatic style intensely expressive of the text and very important for later developments in the madrigal." Grove online#11;#11;"In all, there were six editions entitled Il secondo Libro of Rore, this one being the first. However, only eight of the madrigals it contains are by Rore. The later editions are 1551/15 and 1552/24 (both issued by Gardano), 1562/20 (Scotto), 1563/14 (Gardano) and an edition of 1593 by Angelo Gardano (not in RISM). Eight of the madrigals in this first edition had appeared in that same year (1544) in Scotto's enlarged collection of Rore's five-voice madrigals... To those eight pieces, of which six were by Rore, Gardano here added nineteen others - two by Rore, the rest by other members of the Willaert circle. The editions of 1551, 1552, and 1563 retained the contents of 1544/17. Scotto's 1562 edition omitted six of the madrigals from 1544/17, while the 1593 edition by Angelo Gardano is really a conflation of Rore's second and third books, retaining only six madrigals from Il Secondo Libro."

Seems like an ideal book for a pilgrim to record his own journey to the Holy Land. Handwritten is an 'ex libris' noting Ferdinandi de Graes [?] as the owner. The full leather binding is well attached, no cracks, but some small worm holes in the endpaper. Old pencil note dates the book at 1544. All indications agree.

RORE, Cipriano de 1515/16-1565. Il secondo libro de madregali a cinque voci [Subtitle]: insieme alcuni di M. Adriano et altri autori a misura comune novamente posti in luce a cinque voci. [Cantus part only]
Antonio Gardano ,, Venice: 1544 - First Edition in this form. Very rare. Lewis I 58. New Vogel 2401. RISM 1544/17 (no holdings in the U.S.). "De Rore was one of the most important composers of the middle decades of the 16th century. Although he lived to be only 49 years old, his music, particularly his Italian madrigals, underwent profound changes in style from his early to his late works. His innovations both in harmonic language and in texture created a dramatic style intensely expressive of the text and very important for later developments in the madrigal." Grove online "In all, there were six editions entitled Il secondo Libro of Rore, this one being the first. However, only eight of the madrigals it contains are by Rore. The later editions are 1551/15 and 1552/24 (both issued by Gardano), 1562/20 (Scotto), 1563/14 (Gardano) and an edition of 1593 by Angelo Gardano (not in RISM). Eight of the madrigals in this first edition had appeared in that same year (1544) in Scotto's enlarged collection of Rore's five-voice madrigals. To those eight pieces, of which six were by Rore, Gardano here added nineteen others - two by Rore, the rest by other members of the Willaert circle. The editions of 1551, 1552, and 1563 retained the contents of 1544/17. Scotto's 1562 edition omitted six of the madrigals from 1544/17, while the 1593 edition by Angelo Gardano is really a conflation of Rore's second and third books, retaining only six madrigals from Il Secondo Libro." Lewis I, p. 436. Oblong octavo. Modern patterned paper wrappers. [i] (title incorporating vignette of a lion and a bear), xxxviii, [i] (index) pp. With historiated woodcut initials throughout.

"Leonelli's book consists of 33 chapters mostly on common diseases such as diarrhea, constipation, earache, abscesses of the head, weak stomach, disturbed sleep. His method is simple. He names the disease, gives its cause and then proceeds to its cure. It is really a handbook of pediatric therapeutics and he makes much of fomentations, inunctions, and the external use of oils."--Ruhrah, pp. 139-141. Still, pp. 104-107. Grulee 496. Durling 4668.

FENESTELLA, LUCIUS [pseud. of ANDREA DOMENICO FIOCCO] Il Fenestella d'i Sacerdotii, e d'i Magistrati Romani. Tradotto di latinoalla lingua Toscana, ... M. Angelo Motta
Gabriel Giolito de' Ferrari Venice 1544 Circa 1800 calf rebacked with finely gilt tooled spine Small 8vo . FIRST EDITION IN ITALIAN of this historical description of the government and priesthood of ancient Rome by the Florentine humanist Andrea Domenico Fiocco (or Fiocchi, c. 1410-1452). The Latin text was first printed in Venice in 1473-77 and attributed by Fiocco to the Roman historiographer Lucius Fenestella. The translator, Angelo Motta, dedicates the work to Francesco Sansovino (1521-1583) who would also provide a translation of this work for Giovio for a 1547 edition. "The treatise enjoyed almost immediately a wide circulation ... and at the close of the 15th century there were already seven printed texts available. Many more editions of Fiocchi's work were published all over Europe in the course of the 16th and 17th centuries" (M. Laureys). A scarce work. Not in the OCLC 43, [1] leaves.

Mit Portr�t Ciceros auf dem Titel und Druckermarke am Schluss. Venedig, Giovanni da la Chiesa, 1544.. I. Erste Ausgabe dieser �bersetzung der 'Tusculanae disputationes' Ciceros durch Sebastiano Fausto da Longiano (ca. 1502-1565). Von Gamba als selten, aber "roh" ("incondita versione") bezeichnet, wobei der Bibliograph offenbar kein Exemplar gesehen hat, da er sich auf Informationen anderer beruft und Fausto nur als angeblichen Herausgeber nennt, w�hrend die Widmung und ein Hinweis an die Leser eindeutig mit seinem Namen gezeichnet sind. Fausto �bertrug zahlreiche antike Schriftsteller in das Italienische und gab auch einen Dialog �ber die Kunst des �bersetzens heraus. Ber�hmt, jedoch wenig schmeichelhaft ist das Urteil von Girolamo Muzio, wonach Fausto von der italienischen Sprache soviel verstehe wie ein Esel vom Spielen auf der Leier (zitiert bei Gamba 1389). - Wenig fleckig. - Gamba 2568. Graesse II 185. - II. Erste Ausgabe dieser �bersetzung von Ciceros 'De officiis' und kleineren Schriften durch den Humanisten und Theologen Antonio Brucioli (1487-1566), dessen wichtigstes Werk seine reich kommentierte italienische Bibel�bersetzung ist, die in vielen Anmerkungen die Institution der katholischen Kirche kritisiert. Auf Reisen nach Frankreich und Deutschland lernte Brucioli die Ideen der Reformation kennen, die er zeitlebens in vielen Punkten vertrat, ohne je f�rmlich dem Katholizismus zu entsagen. Angeblich las er sogar �ffentlich aus Luthers Werken, notorisch waren seine republikanische Einstellung sowie seine sehr kritische Haltung gegen�ber dem Klerus. Nachdem er Florenz verlassen musste, geriet er auch in Venedig mehrfach in Konflikt mit der Inquisition, trotz der Protektion einflussreicher G�nner, die ihm seine beliebte Bibel�bersetzung eingebracht hatte. Alle seine Werke kamen auf den 'Index librorum prohibitorum', 1558 musste er �ffentlich seinen Ideen abschw�ren, aber auch danach verh�rte ihn die Inquisition erneut. Er starb nach Kerkerhaft in sehr �rmlichen Verh�ltnissen. - ICCU 14606. Graesse II 185. [Bookseller: Antiquariat Wolfgang Braecklein]

(Agrippa von Nettesheim, Heinrich Cornelius). Della nobilta et eccellenza delle donne, nuovamente dalla lingua francese nella italiana tradotto. 29 num. Bl., 1 Bl. Mit 2 Druckermarken. Pappbd um 1900.
Venedig, Gabriel Giolito de Ferrari, 1544.. . Seltene italienische �bersetzung der fr�hen feministischen Grundschrift. Die Aufsehen erregende Schrift, zuerst 1529 lateinisch ver�ffentlich, wurde umgehend ins Franz�sische, Englische, Deutsche und Italienische �bersetzt. Agrippa von Nettesheim (1486-1535) verbindet in seiner bereits 1509 entstandenen Abhandlung - er war gerade 23 Jahre alt! - h�chst widerspr�chliche Ans�tze: die radikal-feministische Position von der nat�rlichen �berlegenheit der Frauen mit der �berzeugung von der Gleichwertigkeit der Geschlechter. In einer Art Gedankenexperiment verkn�pft er unterschiedliche esoterische Quellen aus Kabbala, Hermetik und Neoplatonismus mit feministischer biblischer Exegese. "Agrippa's subversive reversal of traditional hierarchies won wide acceptance by the partisans of the 'querelle des femmes'. Using formal rhetorical proofs and traditional sources, Agrippa arrived at very new conclusions ... By presenting the extreme notion that women are superior to men, he seriously undermined established notions about the relationship between the sexes" (D. S. Wood, In Praise of Women's Superiority ..., in: Sex and Gender in Medieval and Renaissance Texts, Albany, 1997, S. 201f). Es verwundert nicht, dass nicht nur Agrippas Zeitgenossen diese Arbeit teils als Satire auffassten, teils als Ausdruck eines Renaissance-Paradoxon. - Ohne das letzte wei�e Blatt. - Erdmann, My gracious silence, 26. Bongi, Giolito, I 76 f. Vgl. BM STC 468 (A. 1549) und Adams A 385 (lat. A. 1567). * Rare Italian translation of Agrippa's feministic pamphlet. Lacking final blank leaf. Boards ca. 1900.

ELYOT, Sir Thomas The castell of helth corrected and in some places augmented...
[London, T. Berthelet] 1541 [1544] 8vo (125 x 89 mm), ff [8] 86 [recte 94, of 96, without colophon leaf or last blank], title within woodcut architectural border, woodcut arms on title verso and A8 verso, black letter, woodcut initials; a few wormholes repaired in blank margins of last few leaves, a very good copy in nineteenth-century mottled calf in an eighteenth-century style by William Pratt, gilt panels, gilt edges. �7500 First published ca 1537, Elyot�s Castell of Helth was an immensely popular Tudor handbook of domestic medicine, making accessible classical authorities to an English-speaking and reading audience. This edition contains Elyot�s own preface and defence of his work, which in the 1541 edition replaced the dedication to Thomas Cromwell. �Through More Elyot may have known Erasmus, and it is likely that he studied medicine with Thomas Linacre; the preface to Elyot's book The Castel of Helth states that when he was twenty years old �a worshypfull phisition, and one of the most renoumed at that tyme in England, perceyving me by nature inclyned to knowledge, radde unto me the workes of Galene� and Hippocrates (Elyot, Castel of Helth, sig. A4). More was probably also responsible for introducing Elyot to Hans Holbein the younger, whose drawings of both Thomas Elyot and his wife survive in the Royal Collection at Windsor Castle... �...Elyot's Castel of Helth completes the trilogy of his major works. It is an attempt to summarize the teachings of the ancient Greek and Roman physicians, especially Galen, so that English men and women may understand and regulate their health accordingly. It popularized the theory of the four humours and complexions, which became a basic part of the intellectual make-up of Renaissance Britain, and suggested medicines and treatments for a variety of ailments. Probably based on Elyot's studies with Linacre, it differed from Linacre's own writings, for Linacre translated the works of Galen from Greek to Latin, hoping to make them accessible to doctors but not wishing to allow ordinary men and women to diagnose their own complaints. It was Elyot who provided an accessible handbook in the vernacular� (Stanford Lehmberg in Oxford Dictionary of National Biography).

TURNER, William. Avium praecipuarum, quarum apud Plinium et Aristotelem mentio est, brevis & succincta historia.
Cologne: Johannes Gymnicus, 1544. - Small 8vo, 19th century calf-backed marbled paper over boards. Without the final blank leaf. First edition of the first book devoted to birds. Written while he was in exile in Germany (after being imprisoned in England for preaching without a license), Turner�s work is an attempt to determine the identification of birds described in Aristotle and Pliny. Not surprisingly, his work contains numerous errors and misidentifications, and he was not immune to certain myths about birds � such as the spontaneous generation of the barnacle goose on pieces of driftwood, or the notion that goatsuckers suck the teats of goats at night. But most of his identifications are good, born of close observation. For instance: I think that Aristotle�s Spinus is our Grenefinc, for it lives for the most part among thorns, and feeds upon the seeds of grasses. The bird which I believe to be the Spinus in its size equals a Sparrow, and is wholly green, and in this kind the male especially, the female being somewhat pale. It feeds upon the seeds of the bigger thistles and of burdocks and it nests on the branches of the willow or wild plum. In his Peroration to the Reader Turner relates that he wrote the book in two months, and that it would have been more thorough but for lack of money: For who without great command of money can set off for distant regions, to observe the forms and habits of foreign birds, and there to stay a long time for that purpose. Be that as it may, A. H. Evans, who translated Turner�s book in 1903, writes that [Turner] produced the first book on birds which treats them in anything like the modern scientific spiritnor is it too much to say that almost every page bears witness to a personal knowledge of the subject, which would be distinctly creditable even to a modern ornithologist. Turner was an extraordinary naturalist; not only did he write the first book on birds, but his New Herball, published in three volumes between 1551 and 1568, is the first systematic attempt to describe the flora of England. A very good copy, with only a few scattered light stains. Rare: the only copies recorded in the United States are at Harvard, Cornell, Trinity College, and the University of Kansas.

Pseud. TREBELLIUS POLLIO et al. De Imperatoribus Romanis]

Small paper library label to spine. Scraps of medieval manuscript used as stubs. Armorial bookplate of the Earl of Macclesfield to front pastedown (unstuck). Contemporary purchase note of Boniface de Sorge to fly, his autograph to foot of t-p. Charming and unsophisticated copy of the first and only edition of these collected histories of the Roman emperors from Augustus to Maximilian, edited by the famous Venetian scholar Joannes Baptista Egnatius.The work opens with extracts from the 'Historia Augusta' a collection of lives of the Roman emperors of the second and third centuries, now predominantly considered to be a 4th century fabrication, and the work of one rather than the advertised many hands. It has been interpreted as a conscious parody of contemporary activities. Trebellius Pollio's 'Tyranni Triginta' begins c.250, providing a fanciful chronicle of 30 usurpers in the time of Gallienus and Valerian, followed by a tract on the deification of Claudius. A second 'author', Flavius Vopiscus then discusses the deification of Aurelian, before moving onto other minor emperors, Tacitus, Saturninus and Carus i.a. The rest of the text is composed of: an epitome of Sextus Aurelius Victor's lives of the emperors from Augustus to Theodosius (d. c. 395); Julius Pomponius Laetus' history from the death of Gordian to Justin; and Joannes Baptista Egnatius' 3 books on the Roman leaders from Julius Caesar to Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor, concluding with editorial annotations to the other works. Sorge is a river that runs through Provence and Isle de Sorge, an elegant old town on its banks. BM STC Fr. 425. Ren 61:19. Adams T917. Not in Graesse, Dibdin or Brunet.

FENESTELLA, LUCIUS [pseud. of ANDREA DOMENICO FIOCCO] Il Fenestella d'i Sacerdotii, e d'i Magistrati Romani. Tradotto di latino alla lingua Toscana, . M. Angelo Motta
Gabriel Giolito de' Ferrari, Venice 1544 - Circa 1800 calf rebacked with finely gilt tooled spine Small 8vo . FIRST EDITION IN ITALIAN of this historical description of the government and priesthood of ancient Rome by the Florentine humanist Andrea Domenico Fiocco (or Fiocchi, c. 1410-1452). The Latin text was first printed in Venice in 1473-77 and attributed by Fiocco to the Roman historiographer Lucius Fenestella. The translator, Angelo Motta, dedicates the work to Francesco Sansovino (1521-1583) who would also provide a translation of this work for Giovio for a 1547 edition. "The treatise enjoyed almost immediately a wide circulation . and at the close of the 15th century there were already seven printed texts available. Many more editions of Fiocchi's work were published all over Europe in the course of the 16th and 17th centuries" (M. Laureys). A scarce work. Not in the OCLC 43, [1] leaves.

The present second (first Netherlands) edition includes 13 stunning large engraved plates and is also a typographic monument of the greatest importance. The commentaries and criticism are arranged not by author, but by the Bible passages they discuss, so that one can readily read and compare the views of all the leading scholars concerning any passage. The present edition mentions the compilers only at the end of the preface taken over from the first edition (London 1660), principally John Pearson (1613-1686), Bishop of Chester and later Professor of Theology at Cambridge, with his colleagues Anthony Scattergood, Francis Gouldman and Richard Pearson. They brought together texts by Erasmus, Sebastian M�nster, Joannes Drusius, Benedictus Arias Montanus, Isaac Casaubon, Edward Brerewood, Kaspar Waser, Hugo Grotius, Petrus Cunaeus, Joseph Scaliger, Johannes Cloppenburg, James Ussher and many more. Volumes 1-4 cover the Old Testament, volume 5 the Apocrypha and Jewish antiquities, and volumes 6-8 the New Testament. The dedication to Frederick III, Elector of Brandenburg, and the five-page note to the reader are new to this edition.The main (Latin) text is set in roman types supplemented by italic, with numerous extensive passages in Greek and Hebrew (some running over several pages and some with a parallel Latin translation), one extensive passage in Syriac and shorter passages in Arabic, textura (used for Dutch and English) and fraktur (used for German). Neither the plates nor the engravings in the text or on the title-pages are signed, but they are fine pieces of work. The world map, ten other plates and one engraving in the text are based on those first published in Plantin's Polyglot Bible (1568-1573) where most were prepared by Arias Montanus. The world map shows how the world was repopulated by Noah's three sons after the flood, and the origin of the present version (and that with "Tom. VI. pag. 553, probably from the 1660 Critici Sacri ) has long puzzled cartographers (see Shirley 125 and his corrigenda). Its inclusion of the northern part of a large land mass south of the East Indies has encouraged speculations about an early sighting of Australia. The lovely scenes of the Garden of Eden and the Flood in the margins of the present version do not appear on any of the earlier ones. The present versions of Arias Montanus's maps are not in Laor (cf. 45, 46 & 945) or Poortman & Augusteijn (cf. chapter 14, items 1-4).Isaac Walton's London Polyglot Bible (1655-1657) secured England's place in the world of biblical scholarship. While both its preparation and its publication stimulated a great deal of new scholarship, its parallel presentation of eighteen Bible texts in nine languages left limited room for commentary. The 1660 Critici Sacri in nine volumes was the first and most extensive attempt to fill this gap, the only comparable work being Matthew Poole's five-volume Synopsis Criticorum (1669-1676). Both were printed by James Flesher in London. English book production still lagged behind Dutch at this date, however, so the present second edition reaps the typographic benefits of the Dutch Golden Age. It was published by a syndicate of six bookseller/publishers in Amsterdam and Utrecht, but the typographic materials and their distribution in the book suggest that the printing was shared by Hendrik Wetstein and another unidentified printing office.

His interest in Porphyry, Proclus, Dionysius the Pseudo-Areopagite, and the Hermetic corpus were likewise the basis for occult investigations into neo-Platonism. #11;"He took over and reinterpreted Plato's theory of love...and combined it with ancient theories of friendship that were known to him primarily through Aristotle and Cicero; he also tried to identify it with the Christian love (charitas) praised by St. Paul.
