Editio princeps. Texte entièrement en grec. Les oeuvres d'Eusebius sont les premiers ouvrages d'importance qui ont été imprimés avec la première fonte des célèbres "grecs du Roi". Taillés par Claude Garamond, ces caractères cursifs, basés sur l'écriture du crétois Angelo Vergezio, qui travaillait alors à la Bibliothèque de Fontainebleau, sont considérés comme parmi les plus beaux que l'on ait jamais réalisés. Cette même année 1544, Estienne avait édité l' 'Ecclesiasticae historiae' du même auteur. Le colophon du second ouvrage porte, comme tous les exemplaires : Avril 1546. Marque au basilic sur les titres (qui est celle de l'imprimeur du Roi pour le grec) et marque à l'olivier au derniers feuillets. Le dos de la reliure a été très habilement refait. Petites éraflures sur les plats. Bel exemplaire, grand de marges. Un petit ex-libris héraldique a été collé au bas de la page de titre : X. de Javel. Schreiber, the Estiennes 78 : "Editiones principes of these two works, which, together with 'Ecclesiasticae historiae', form the editio princeps of the works of Eusebius, which remained the standard text for about a century."

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. Woodcut printer's device and fine woodcut historiated initials. Some scattered foxing. Early inscription crossed out on last leaf. BM/STC Italian, p. 246; not in Adams.

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 Münster, 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.

| Sacerdotii ac sacrificii nouae legis defensio, adversus Vuolfgangi Musculi, augustae concionantis arrosiones. Ingolstadt, excudebat Alexander Weissenhorn,
|
Printer's device on title-page. 4to. [50]ff. Modern boards. 1544. A collection of polemical pamphlets by the Catholic contraversialist Joannes Cochlaeus (1479-1552) composed towards the end of his life while he was a canon at Eichstätt and published at nearby Ingolstadt at the press of Alexander Weissenhorn. Cochlaeus was educated in humanist circles and became a friend of Pirckheimer and Hutten. He furthered his studies in Italy and was ordained at Rome as a secular priest in 1519. He returned to Germany soon after to an appointment as dean at Frankfurt am Main. Though previously sympathetic to Luther in 1521 he attended the diet of Worms and had two meetings with the reformer where it became apparent that they held basic differences of opinion. From then on Cochlaeus emerged as one of the leading opponents of the Lutheran movement in Germany, travelling widely and attacking the reformers on all fronts. His strategy was to undermine the movement by continually contrasting the inconsistency of the proclamations of its leading members with the unity and coherence of Catholic teaching. First edition of Cochlaeus' defence of the Mass and the Clergy in response to the reformer Wolfgang Musculus (1497-1563) who was at the time a pastor in Augsburg and was highly influential in the total reform of the city. Ownership inscription on title-page of Herman Lemmer? dated 1576. Some waterstaining, mostly marginal. Adams C2285. VD16 C4378. Stalla 148. Spahn 151. OCLC (4 copies).

The first Latin edition, translated by Janus Cornarus (1500-1558), appeared in Venice in 1538; in the same year Froben published an edition in Basle and it has since been published in the original Greek, French and English in many editions to the 20th century.work is also ascribed to Dionysius Uticensis and the Byzantine Emperor Constantinus the Great and is also listed under the word "Geoponica". In the 80's of the last century the work has been the subject of a series of doctoral theses at the University of Munich (see the dissertations of Chr. Kraus on book 13 & 15; S.U. Wappermann on book 16 & 17; H.M.E. Jung-Neumann onm book 18 & 19; J.E. Sommer on book 14 & 20 of the Geoponica von Cassianus Bassus, Uebers. und Besprechung von --.

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 Münster, 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. The rich collection of typographic materials includes (in quires likely to have been printed by Wetstein) Nicolaus Kis's Text roman & italic (the earliest recorded use of any Kis roman or italic in Dutch printing outside Kis's own publications) and J. A. Schmidt's Mediaan Greek, which may also have been cut by Kis (the earliest example, outside of type specimens, of any of the new Greeks cut without the ligatures that had been normal for well over 150 years). The (serto) Syriac is a copy of Granjon's, but does not appear to exactly match the copies known from other publications. The 4 or 5 larger series of initial letters (mostly in the non-Wetstein quires) are also noteworthy, and some may be new.Volume 6, which begins the commentary on the New Testament, has a full-fledged title-page similar to the general title-page and with the same imprint, but reading "Criticorum Sacrorum tomus sextus, exhibens Annotata in quatuor Evangelia. ...". The other seven volumes have only a part-title without imprint. By its own numbering, the book comprises 18 parts in 8 volumes, but part 2 of volume 1 has its own part-title, while parts 2 and 3 in the other volumes do not, the separate parts of volume 1 have about the same number of pages as the other whole volumes, and the general title-page calls for nine volumes, so the book was clearly designed for binding in nine volumes, like the 1660 edition.Very good copy, with all plates in fine condition and containing all blank leaves, but with a few water stains in some volumes, a couple leaves slightly wrinkled and a few other very minor, mostly marginal, spots, dirt, etc. In a good vellum binding, a bit stained and with a few cracks in the spines. A beautiful copy of a monument to biblical scholarship.

Tasso, Torquato, 1544-1595. Aminta favola boschereccia. Venetia: Manuzio, Aldo, 1583. First illustrated edition, separate issue. These charming woodcuts first appear in the Aminta published in the 1583 Aldine edition of Delle Rime del Signor T. Tasso (Renouard, 233:7 Telvemo. temporary vellum 92, [4] p. : ill. (woodcuts). Name on titlepage inked over and erased. Title page a bit stained. First three leaves chipped along bottom margin & slightly at top. Occasional light stains and soiling to text. An early amateur hand has added a bit of colored flesh-tones to figures in four of the eight woodcuts, and to the dolphin on the title page and to the rose at the end of the text. Renouard notes that some examples of the first illustrated edition of Aminta (of which this is one) were published separately. This reimpression adds an avis lettroi of three pages (A6r-7r) which is new. An early example of the illustrated pastorales which were published in the early 17th century, such as Pastor Fido, Fille di Sciro and a number of other plays. The illustrated pastorales in Italy developed a special allegorical and temporal form for picturing the action and characters. Each act, (in Aminta each chorus as well), is fronted with an engraving in which each character in the act is pictured in a discrete grouping within the landscape and with a bare minimum of props to suggest the location. The character placement recedes to suggest that their appearance in the scene is later in time with the foreground representing the first scene and the background suggested the last. According to Larry Norman "the temporality of each act collapses beautifully into a single pictorial moment." References: Renouard, 233:7; Adams, T221; BM STC Italian 660; Aldine Press.

(ME 07-150) Erste Ausgabe des architekturgeschichtlich einflussreichen Vitruv-Kommentars.- Philand(i)er (1505 - 1565) nennt auf S. 81 den berühmten Sebastiano Serlio, Architekt des französischen Königs Franz I., als seinen Lehrer, durch den er in die Grundlagen der Baukunst eingeführt worden sei. Er selbst stand im Dienste des Bischofs von Rodez. Philander verfasste nicht nur theoretische Werke, "sondern legte auch in der practischen Architectur viele Proben seiner Geschicklichkeit ab, immassen er bemeldte Stadt mit allerhand Gebäuden zierte. Als 1541 der Bischoff als königlicher Ambassadeur nach Venedig gieng, begleitete ihn Philander nicht allein dahin, sondern that auch noch von dannen eine Reise nach Rom, um die Baukunst noch weiter zu treiben" (Jöcher III, 1510). Zusammen mit Antonio di Sangallo, B. Maffei, Vignola und Tolomei gehörte Philander der vitruvianischen Akademie an, die eine kommentierte Vitruv-Ausgabe erstellen wollte. Sein in diesem Zusammenhang entstandener Vitruv-Kommentar ist typisch für die Vitruv-Rezeption und das Architektur-Verständnis des 16. Jahrhunderts.- Ebhardt 69; Cicognara 708; Fowler 402; Books on Art 2078; Schweiger 1265; Adams P 989.

Wittenberg, (N. Schirlentz) 1544 Kl.-4to. 16 Bl. Mit Holzschnitt-Titelbordüre. Neuere Broschur (hinterer Umschlag etwas fleckig, geringf. braunfleckig, Titel etwas angestaubt). (WR 01-215) Erste Ausgabe.- Predigt am Michaelstag 1544. Luther weist darauf hin, dass die H. Schrift "von zweierley Engeln redet. Erstlich von denen, die da sind und heissen heilige, himlische Geister (on fleisch und blut) Zum andern, Nennet die Schrifft auch Engel, die da Fleisch und Blut haben, und Christum Gottes Son selbs, Denn umb diesen ist es fürnemlich zuthun" (S. 4/5). Die traditionelle Lesung des Tages beschreibt den Kampf des Erzengels Michael mit dem Drachen, der "alten Schlange, die da heisset Teuffel und Satanas" (Apk 12, 7-12). Diese Perikope gibt Luther die Gelegenheit, seine christologische Deutung des Endkampfes darzulegen, und offenbart zugleich, wie sehr Luthers Denken selbst von apokalyptischer Erwartungshaltung durchdrungen war.- Die Titelbordüre (sog. Salomebordüre, Luther Taf. 25) zeigt die Enthauptung Johannes des Täufers, eingerahmt von zwei Szenen des eitlen höfischen Lebens. Sie zählt nach Koepplin/Falk 261 zu den Arbeiten der Cranach-Schule.- Benzing 3453; VD16 L 5708.

Oporin, Basel, 1544. Halbpergament der Zeit mit goldgeprägtem Rückenschild. 5 n.n. Bl., 208 S. Gross-8°. VD16: P4090. - Adams P 1814. - Hirsch IV, 605. - Polybus soll der Schwiegersohn von Hippokrates gewesen sein, auf alle Fälle war er einer der einflussreichsten Dogmatiker und Verfasser mehrerer Schriften, die Hippokrates zugeschrieben werden. Die von Alban Thorer (Albano Torino) übersetzten hier vorliegenden medizinischen Schriften sind wohl aus der Zeit, ob sie jedoch von Polybus selbst stammen scheint fraglich. Thorer (1489-1530) war mit Vesal befreundet, der 1542 im Jahr als Thorer Rektor an der Universität war, sich in Basel immatrikulieren liess und dort den Druck seiner Anatomie überwachte. - Bogen n S. 97-104 verdruckt, dadurch 4 leere Seiten, die durch Photokopie ergänzt wurden. Einige zeitgenössische Annotationen und Unterstreichungen. Titelblatt alt aufgezogen. Der Verlagsname auf dem Titel unkenntlich gemacht.
