Peso Kg. 2,900 Splendido messale di grandi dimensioni e peso del 1730 in folio interamente scritto a caratteri rosso e neri con splendidi capilettera decorati, almeno 1 per pagina (ad esclusione dei canti gregoriani). All'interno del testo tre bellissime incisioni a piena pagina che raffigurano delle scene religiose (l'annunciazione, la crocifissione, la resurrezione). Bella vignetta al frontespizio. All'inizio del messale un introduzione dedicata alla memoria dei tre Papi che si erano occupati di redigerlo (Pio V; Clemente VIII; Urbano VIII) e una sorta di prefazione all'opera con delle tabelle indicanti il calendario liturgico che rimanda alle parti del messale da recitare.<BR>Presente anche Commune Sanctorum e Missae Propriae Sanctorum ad uso dei Frati Minori di San Francesco. Pagine e pagine di canti gregoriani all'interno. Il messale è del 1730, ma alla fine sono state aggiunte alcune parti: la Missae Propriae Sanctorum ad usum fratrum minorum S. Francisci del 1731, commemorazione di Maria Santissima della Madia di Monopoli della metà del 1700, commemorazione di Santa Pulcheria Vergine del 1753, San Gennaio Vescovo (numerosi strappi e pagina staccata) del 1731, San Stanislao del 1750 circa (staccato dalla legatura) e tre fogli anticamente manoscritti (uno con strappi e numerose mancanze). Imponente copertina in piena pelle settecentesca con borchie (vedere foto). Segnalibri di stoffa che aiutavano il sacerdote nella lettura. Era un testo che veniva abitualmente utilizzato quindi presenta dei segni d'uso come segni di restauro, cera e rare macchie di sporco (vedere specifica sotto). Antico manoscritto alla prima carta bianca e alle ultime pagine. Alto valore. Copertina in piena pelle settecentesca a cinque nervi con borchie e decorazioni a secco in discrete condizioni generali con usure e parti mancanti: le borchie al centro del piatto e la borchia inferiore destra del piatto posteriore risultano mancanti. Legatura in buone condizioni generali ma rottura alle sguardie, qualche pagina in parte staccata e alcuni fogli finali staccati. All'interno le pagine si presentano in buone condizioni generali con mende, rare fioriture, rari segni di sporco e di cera. Segno di tarlo al margine destro e inferiore dalla prima pagina sino alla fine senza perdita di testo. Strappo al margine inferiore di pag. 193 inficiante testo e incisione. Segno di restauro al margine inferiore di pag. 195 e 198. Very beautiful missal of big dimension and weight of 1730 in folio enterely written in black and red charachters with faboulous decorated initial letters, at least 1 for page (excluding Gregorian music).<BR>Inside the text there are three beautiful full page engravings representing some religious scenes (annunciation, crucifission, resurrection). Very beautiful vignette in the title page. At the beginning three introductions dedicated to the memories of the three Popes that wrote it (Pio V; Clemente VIII; Urbano VIII) and a sort of introduction to the work with some charts indicating the liturgic calendar which indicates the part of the missal to be read. There are also Commune Sanctorum and Missae Propriae Sanctorum for the usage of Grey Friars. There are pages and pages of Gregorian music inside (see the photoes). The missal if of 1730, but as usual, at the end some parts were added: the Missae Propriae Sanctorum ad usum fratrum minorum S. Francisci of 1731, commemoration of Maria Santissima della Madia di Monopoli of 1750 circa, commemoration of Santa Pulcheria Vergine of 1753, San Gennaio Vescovo (different tears and page detached) of 1731, San Stanislao of 1750 circa (detached from binding) and three pages manuscripted in ancient times (one with tears and different missing parts). Imponent full skin decorated cover of the XVIII century. Very beautiful decorated initial letters. Fabric bookmarks to get easier the reading to the priest. It was a text that was normally used, so we find some signs of usage as restoration signs, rare wax signs and rare dirt's signs (see details in the description below). High value. Full leather cover of the XVIII century with five nerfs and studs in fair conditions with wearings and missing parts: the central studs and the lower right stud of back plate are missing. Binding in good general conditions apart for a crack in the frontspice, some page almost detached and some final pages detached. Inside pages are in good conditions with usage signs, occasional foxings, wax and dirt's signs. Worming in the right edge and lower edge in the whole volume with no loss of text. Tear in the lower edge of pag. 193 ruining text and engraving. Restauration sign in the lower edge of pag. 195 and 198.

ST19350-013Germany early 13th century. 273 x 193 mm. 10 3/4 x 7 1/2". Single column 31 lines text in two sizes in a gothic hand. <br/> Rubrics in red several one- and two-line initials in red and two larger initials in red. A few lines with neumes later notations in the margins now quite faded. ◆Vellum a bit soiled and creased as expected fading to four or five lines where the spine was placed several notches along one edge other imperfections due to its reuse as binding scrap but still an excellent specimen that is almost entirely legible.<br/> <br/> Written in a neat and attractive hand this sizable leaf from a Missal remains mostly quite legible with all its rubrication intact despite having been used as part of a binding. A few lines also show musical notation from the earliest generation of neumes. They are described as "in campo aperto" which means literally "in an open field" because they and they alone occupy the space or "field" above the text. They are also described as adiastematic because they appear in a straight line whereas later diastematic neumes reflect changes in pitch by being placed in a higher or lower vertical position above the text. At the time the present leaf was written out the neumes here simply served as an "aide memoire" to the singer who had already learned the melody orally. unknown

Slightest of rubbing to extremities. Internally immaculate. An exquisitely bound late nineteenth-century Continental edition of the Roman Missal. The Roman Missal with origins in the high middle ages is the liturgical book from which the text and rubrics for the celebration of Catholic Mass with both prayers and music. One of the major advances of the Council of Trent the Catholic counter to the Protestant Reformation was to standardise the Missal. Pope Pius V acting on the concilliar deciion formalised this in his Quo Primum on 14 July 1570 - insisting that the standard form of the Missal was used throughout the Church except where a local missal could be proved to be of two centuries antiquity. Perhaps one of the most controversial Counter-Reformation decisions made at Trent the use of a standard Missal prevented the celebration of the Mass in vernacular languages and signified a further strengthening of Papal authority: particularly as all printed editions were prefaced by the Pope's order of standardisation. The Missal of Pius V was further edited by Clement VIII in 1604 and later by Urban VIII in 1634. . Large 8vo. H. Dessain hardcover
