FALLOPPIO, Gabriele
Lectiones de partibus similaribus humani corporis, ex diversis exemplaribus a Volchero Coiter summa cum diligentia collectae.
      Nuremburg, in officina Theodorici Gerlachii, 1575. FIRST EDITION. Folio ff. [xxxviii + 5 fldg.]. A-G4 H5 (H3 a folding table), I6, (last blank) 4 large folding engraved plates, in very good impression. Roman letter, some Greek, very fine eleven line historiated initial at beginning of each chapter, thereafter of various sizes, light age yellowing. A very good copy, crisp and clean in fine contemporary limp vellum gilt, covers in a panel design with fleurons to corners, central interlacing gilt oval, spines double gilt ruled with fleurons in compartments, original green silk ties. First edition of Gabriele Falloppio's lectures on comparative anatomy, followed by two important tracts by Coiter on the comparative osteology of quadrupeds and birds, beautifully illustrated with four superb engraved plates taken directly from Coiter's own drawings of the anatomy of small mammals and birds. "far superior in quality to the zoological illustrations of Aldrovandi … they occupy a prominent position in the history of zoology and comparative anatomy." Herlinger. Gabriele Falloppio was perhaps the most outstanding and versatile of 16th century Italian anatomists. He studied in Modena under Niccolo Machella, and in Ferrara under the direction of Antonio Brasavola. Falloppio accepted the chair of anatomy, where he was wrongfully accused of practicing human vivisection; despite the charges, he was offered and accepted the famous chair of anatomy at Padua. He took up his duties in 1551 and lectured and demonstrated with such success as to attract a number of distinguished students, including the comparative anatomist Volcher Coiter (1534-1576). The first part comprises a series of lectures by Falloppio on comparative anatomy, their first published appearance. Falloppio was a painstaking dissector and is remembered for the precision of his observations and descriptions which resulted in a number of major advances in medical knowledge and particularly of the bone system and its development. The second consists of two tracts by Coiter on the comparative osteology of quadrupeds and birds, the first study of developmental osteology, that was much more more precise than anything preceding it. The osteology and myology of certain forms is given in considerable detail, and illustrated by carefully drawn figures. As the general scope of each work was regarded as medical, Coiter's work was wholly overlooked by natural historians who followed, even though Coiter introduced a table, "De differentiis Auium," furnishing a key to a rough classification of such birds as were known to him. This is one of the first attempts of its kind. Coiter was a pupil of Falloppio, also studying under Fuchs, Aldrovandi, and Rondelet, who became town physician of Nuremberg. He continued Fallopio's work in comparative osteology to great effect. Coiter's study of the skeleton of the foetus and of a child six months old was the first study of developmental osteology and showed where ossification begins. He was the first to raise the field of comparative anatomy to independent status in biology, though he emphasized points of difference from human anatomy rather than points of similarity. A fine, superbly bound copy, of a seminal work. BM STC Ger. C16 p.298. Wellcome I 2160. Durling 1473. Not in Osler, Heirs of Hippocrates, or Garrison and Morton. SN: L821

OTHE.)
The Othe of the Brethern and free men. n.p., n.d.
      [London c. ?] 1575 - Broadside. 24 x 18cm. Edges uncut. Drop-head title. Printed in black letter. At the foot of the sheet: "God save the Queen". Minor creasing and lightly browned along old horizontal fold otherwise an excellent uncut copy. Not in STC, Wing, or ESTC on-line. Not in Goldsmiths'. No broadside with this title appears in STC or Wing. Dating cannot be exact but the broadside appears to belong to the later part of the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. i.e. not later than 1603. "Oath" spelt "Othe" appears to be discontinued c. 1590. We have not traced any similar early broadside which uses the word "Brethern". STC lists The othe of eurye free man. [London: R. Jugge, c. 1575] 1 sheet ([1] p.); 1/4to. (A unique copy at the Folger bought by Folger from Sawyer Cat. 89:624, 1927). This is followed by several other later editions entitled The othe of euery free man, of the citie of London, 1580 to 1634. A comparison with The othe of euery free man STC 16761.5 shows that our text is completely different: the text here specifically relates to the Craft of Dyers or the Dyers Company. In our broadside the first letter of text is a foliated initial "Y". This is very similar but not identical to the "Y" in the Folger broadside. STC states that 16761.5 is printed by [R. Jugge c. 1575]. The close similarity of the foliated initial Y may be evidence that R. Jugge is also the printer here. "Ye shalbe true unto our soueraigne Lady the Queen, and to her heires, Kinges and Queenes of England, et. Ye shalbe also true and faithful to the craft of Diers, enfraunchized within the Citie of London, keping asmuch as in you is, loue and charitie amongst them, not stirring or mouing any occasion of strife or debate, through which the said craft and fraternitie, or any Person of the same might be hindred or hurt." The text continues in five paragraphs numbered 2-6. A "freeman's oath" was a statement of loyalty to a monarch, government, or corporation, typically sworn on the occasion of the end of a period of apprenticeship or indenture. The custom is no doubt of considerable antiquity. As stated above the earliest such oath for which a printed copy survives is one at the Folger, tentatively dated 1575 ("The Othe of Evrye Free Man," STC 16761.5). The STC also records four other oaths which can be dated ca. 1580-1595, each in a unique copy -- two at the British Library, one at the Guildhall Library, and one at Huntington. This newly discovered example, which ends "God save the Queene," is clearly from the same period. It is the earliest known such broadside which can be assigned to a specific trade, the Company of Dyers; the others were evidently used for more general purposes. Until now, the earliest oath associated with a particular profession was one from the reign of James I (ca. 1610), which was used by leather-sellers (STC 16778.6; a unique copy at the Bodleian). The use of a freeman's oath continued for another two centuries or more, both in Great Britain and in the colonies, with the text showing considerable variation according to time and circumstances. The most famous of these is no doubt "The Oath of a Freeman," first drafted in 1631 as a Puritan oath of loyalty to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. A revised version of 1634 is known to have been printed in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1639 by Stephen Daye, under the direction of Nathaniel Eaton, the first schoolmaster at Harvard. This was the first text to be printed in North America, a year before the celebrated Bay Psalm Book. The wording of the revised oath has survived in later printed sources, but no copy of the original has yet to be found. The present oath for the Company of Dyers concludes with the phrase, "So God you helpe, and the holy contents of this Booke" -- which makes it clear in a rather charming way that the broadside itself was meant to be held in the left hand, while the right hand rested on the Bible.

Valeriano Bolzani, Giovanni Piero
Hieroglyphica, Sive De Sacris Aegyptiorum, Aliarumque Gentium Literis Commentarii. a Celio Augustino Curione Duobis Libris Auctii, & Multis Imaginibus Illustrati
      Basel (Thomas Guarinus), March, 1575. (10)ff., 12pp., 13-441ff., 25ff. Woodcut title-page vignette, splendid full-page portrait by Tobias Stimmer in elaborate ornamental frame, and 273 woodcut illus. Lettrines and schematic figs. in text. Stout folio. Contemporary calf, handsomely blindstamped with fillets and oval device at the center of each cover; handsome seventeenth-century calligraphed paper labels on spine, lettered in red and black. A book of pivotal importance in late Renaissance iconography, first published in Basel, 1556; the present edition follows that of 1567, which was the first to contain the two additional books by Caelio Augustino Curio. Dedicated to Cosimo I de' Medici, Valeriano's ?Hieroglyphica? is ?a vast compilation of all the hieroglyphic knowledge of his time; it drew on Horapollo, the ?Physiologus, ' the obelisks he saw in Rome, the Cabala and the Bible as sources. It was so popular that eleven editions were published in the first seventy years. At the time it was believed that hieroglyphs were a purely ideographical form of writing used by ancient Egyptian priests to foreshadow divine ideas, and that the Greek philosophers had tapped into ?hieroglyphic wisdom. ' In the dedication of his ?Hieroglyphica, ' Valeriano writes, ?[To] speak hieroglyphically is nothing else but to disclose the true nature of things divine and human. He contributed no revolutionary ideas to the field, but his compilation was instrumental in changing the study of hieroglyphic symbols from a philosophical to a philological pursuit? (Funk). Valeriano (1477-1558) was Vasari's Latin teacher, and tutor to Giovanni de' Medici (the future Pope Leo X); in 1509, as the private secretary of Cardinal Giulio de' Medici, he travelled to Rome, where he studied the city's antiquities. The ?Hieroglyphica? provided a fountain of emblematic imagery for leading artists, while the inscriptions in his historical material were utilized by humanist historians. It was unquestionably the most important source for Ripa's ?Iconol

Stobaeus, [Ioannis].
Eclogarum Libri Duo: Quorum Prior Physicas, Posterior Ethicas Complectitur; Nunc Primum Græcè Editi; Interprete Gulielmo Cantero. [and] G. Gemisthi Plethonis. De Rebus Peloponnes. Orationes Duæ. Eodem Gulielmo Cantero Interprete
      Ex officina Christophori Plantini, 1575. Old ownership signature (“ R. Snellius” ) on title-page. A beautiful, wide-margined copy in an interesting old binding. In cloth clamshell box. Folio. 12], 236, [2] pp. Parallel texts, in Greek and Latin. Woodcut printer's device on title-page. Title hand-ruled in ink. Stobaeus, who probably lived in the latter half of the 5th century A.D., was the compiler of a valuable series of extracts from Greek authors. The work, intended for his son Septimus, was divided into four books and two volumes. In most of our manuscripts the work is divided into three books, of which the first and second are generally called Physical and Moral Extracts, and the third Florilegium or Sermones. The text, though, is essentially homogeneous. It deals with a variety of topics from metaphysics to household economy. From the second book onwards, it is concerned chiefly with ethical questions. It cites more than five hundred authors, including poets, historians, philosophers, orators and physicians. It is important for us for the large number of quotations from earlier literature, which supplements our knowledge of classical authors and throws light upon difficulties in the regular manuscript tradition. We owe many of our most important fragments of Euripides' plays to Stobaeus. (See Encyclopedia Briannica, 11th edition; Oxford Classical Dictionary, second edition. ) Gemisthus Pletho (c1355 &endash; 1452/1454) was a Byzantine scholar of Neoplatonic philosophy. He re-introduced Plato's thoughts to Western Europe during the 1438-1439 Council of Florence, a failed attempt to reconcile the East-West schism. Here Pletho met and influenced Cosimo de' Medici to found a new Platonic Academy, which, under Marsilio Ficino, would proceed to translate into Latin all Plato's works, the Enneads of Plotinus, and various other Neoplatonist works.

Ahsmann, Margreet J A Collegium und Kolleg Der juristische Unterricht an der Universität Leiden 1575-1630 unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Disputationen Übersetzt von Sagel-Grande, Irene Verlag : Klostermann, Vittorio ISBN : 978-3-465-02766-9 Einband : Leinen Preisinfo : 129,00 Eur[D] / 132,70 Eur[A] Alle Preisangaben in CHF (Schweizer Franken) sind unverbindliche Preisempfehlungen. Legende: UVP = unverbindliche Preisempfehlung, iVb = in Vorbereitung. Seiten/Umfang : XII, 762 S. Erschienen : 1. Aufl. 2000 Aus der Reihe : Studien zur Europäischen Rechtsgeschichte 138 129,00 Eur[D] Am Ende des 16. und zu Beginn des 17. Jahrhunderts war das Jurastudium in Leiden keineswegs auf das Hören von Vorlesungen beschränkt: Ein wichtiger Teil des Studiums bestand im Disputieren und Opponieren der Studenten. Meist fand das anhand gedruckter Quartoheftchen statt, die man "disputationes" nannte. Nach gründlichen Nachforschungen im In-und Ausland hat die Autorin 709 dieser disputationes wiedergefunden; nur 261 von ihnen befinden sich in Leiden. Genauere Untersuchungen ergaben, daß viele dieser disputationes in kleinen organisierten Zusammenkünften von Studenten, sogenannten "collegia", verteidigt wurden. Dort wurde stets während einer Periode von ein bis zwei Jahren ein bestimmter Teil des Corpus iuris civilis (Institutionen, Digesten usw.) behandelt. Die Leidener collegia hatten alle ihre eigenen Statuten ("statuta"), die für die Studenten beim Disputieren verbindlich waren. Neben den disputationes und collegia stehen die Vorlesungen im Mittelpunkt des Buches: Von Hugo Donellus, dem berühmtesten der Leidener Professoren, wird eine Voelesungsnachschrift analysiert, die große Übereinstimmung mit seinem später im Druck erschienenen systematischen Kommentar über das römische Recht aufweist. Auf der Basis nicht veröffentlichten handschriftlichen Materials beschreibt die Autorin zudem ausführlich, wie zwei weitere bekannte Professoren, Everard Bronchorst und Petrus Cunaeus, ihre Vorlesungen gestalteten, und erstellt eine sich über ca. 40 Jahre erstreckende chronologische Übersicht über die jeweiligen Vorlesungsgegenstände. Im ganzen bietet das Werk für die Periode 1575-1630 (1640) ein Gesamtbild der Leidener juristischen Fakultät, vollständiger und eingehender als alles, was in neueren Darstellungen anderer juristischer Fakultäten inner- und außerhalb der Niederlande zu finden ist.

Ce plan est paru dans la "Cosmographie Universelle de tout le monde" de Belleforest, à Paris en 1575. Ce dernier était historiographe de France sous Henri III et continua l'important travail de Sébastien Münster dont il utilisa plusieurs planches. La vue représente la Ville de Rouen, à vol d'oiseau, prise du Faubourg Saint-Sever. Les armoiries de la ville en haut au centre. Si l'on excepte le remarquable "Livre des fontaines dessiné en 1525, le "Pourtraict de la ville de Rouen" est sans doute le plan le plus intéressant du XVIè siècle et celui qui sera ultérieurement le plus imité.

INGRASSIA Giov.Filippo
Informatione del pestifero, et contagioso morbo il quale affligge et have afflitto questa città di Palermo
      et molte altre città, e terre di questo Regno di Sicilia, nell'anno 1575 et 1576. In Palermo, Appresso Giovan Mattheo Mayda, 1576, in 4, pp. (6), 312, (38), 205, (14), leg. poster. m.perg. e ang. Illustr. da 3 tav. inc. in rame, una f.t. raffig. l’autore che offre il volume a Filippo d’Austria e 2 n.t. raffig. il lazzareto di Palermo; al titolo grande silografia da 4 legni raffig. rimedi contro la peste, ripetuta fra la seconda e la terza parte, impresa dello stampatore al colophon. Uno dei più celebri trattati sulla peste del Cinquecento, importante nella storia della medicina per la posizione di rifiuto da parte dell'Autore della teoria della peste "manufatta". Il fenomeno della peste viene analizzato con grande rigore scientifico da quattro angolazioni (corrispondenti ad altrettante parti dell'opera): che cosa sia la peste e la sua sintomatologia, le norme di igiene e di organizzazione sanitaria per i malati, la prevenzione per la popolazione della città non ancora contagiata, la prassi terapeutica per gli appestati. G. F. Ingrassia, dopo essersi laureato a Padova, dove era stato allievo di Falloppio e Vesalio, si stabilì a Napoli. Era protomedico in Sicilia - incarico che aveva ricevuto da Filippo II nel 1563- durante il contagio di peste nel 1575; il suo contributo fu allora importante e il suo rifiuto di ipotesi fantasiose di peste manufatta segnò un passo avanti determinante nell'epidemiologia. Nel 1577 fu pubblicata una "Parte quinta" dallo stesso stampatore. Il capitolo 3. della quarta parte fu tradotto in latino ed inserito in una raccolta di scritti curata da J. Camerarius (Synopsis commenatriorum de peste, Norimberga 1583). Rarissima cinquecentina palermitana illustrata, di notevole interesse medico. Buon esempl., con rari aloni. Adams I-120. BMC p. 339. Castiglioni, Storia della medicina, pp. 428-429. Durling, 2547. Mortimer, Harvard, I, 241. Mira III, 202: "La quinta parte di quest'opera fu riprodotta nel 1624, quando la peste devastò quest'isola".

Braun, Georg and Hogenberg, Frans:
Basilea [Basel]
      Cologne, c. 1575. Copper engraving, 37 x 38 cms, recent hand-colour, a couple of trivial spots, Latin text on verso. The Civitates Orbis Terrarum - Cities of the whole World - was one of the best-selling works of the late sixteenth-century. It was a monumental work completed over 45 years between 1572 and 1617. It was the first systematic city atlas (containing the first printed views of many towns). Braun wrote the text and Ortelius - who travelled with the artist Joris Hoefnagel - supplied much of the material, which was then engraved by Novellus and Hogenburg. There were a number of editions, mostly with Latin text, but it is extremely difficult (and as Koeman says !of secondary importance!) to differentiate between them, as the state of the plates and their number and order does not vary.

      Frankfurt am Main, Peter Schmidt, 1575. - Sehr früher Katalog zur Frankfurter Frühjahrsmesse. Georg Willer, "Buchhändler in Augsburg . gab 1564 den ersten Meßkatalog für die Frankfurter Messe heraus, womit ein allgemeiner Aufschwung des Buchhandels begann. Von da an ließ er immer zur Fasten- und Herbstmesse je einen Katalog herstellen" (Lex. des ges. Buchwesens III 585). Diese Kataloge revolutionierten als die ersten Verkaufskataloge im eigentlichen Sinn den gesamten Buchhandel. "Before that date printers visiting the fair must have had to write out by hand countless lists of new books to send to their customers: thereafter they could send copies of the fair catalogue to the local booksellers all over Europe, who in turn passed them on to their customers. The fair catalogue was a co-operative effort: the printers coming to the fair sent in advance title-pages of the books they were bringing, so that Willer could arrange them in subject order before printing his catalogue " (Pollard/Ehrman). "(These) catalogues represent the first international bibliographies of a periodic character, attempting to list every six months all new publications issued in Europe, and they can be considered the prototype of today's Books in Print. The books are arranged by subject; for the first time, place, publisher, and date are always mentioned" (Breslauer/Folter). – Vereinzelt gering fleckig. Gutes, breitrandiges Exemplar. – Frühe Meßkataloge sind sehr selten und befinden sich nur vereinzelt in deutschen Bibliotheken. – VD 16, W 3161. Pollard/Ehrman 77. Breslauer/Folter, Bibliography, 24.
