Concoregio, Giovanni.MareMagnum

Practica nova medicine [...]. Summula [...] de curis febrium. (Venice, heirs of Ottaviano Scoto, 19 Febr. 1515).

Dioscorides, Pedanius.MareMagnum

In hoc volumine haec continentu.r [!] Ioannis Baptistae Egnatii Veneti in Dioscoridem ab Hermolao Barbaro tralatum annotamenta. Quibus morborum et remediorum vocabula obscuriora in usum etiam mediocriter eruditorum explicantur [...]. (Venice, Luigi & Francesco Barbaro & Giovanni Bartolomeo Gabiano for Giovanni & Gregorio De Gregori, 1 Feb. 1516).

Folio (225 x 318 mm). 2 parts in one volume. (36), CXXXIII (but: 134), 106 ff. Later full vellum with old giltstamped red label to spine. The first authoritative work of antiquity on the 'materia medica', the branch of science treating remedial substances, based on the author's first-hand research throughout the Middle East. This is the rare first printing of this edition with the commentary by G. B. Egnatio: the third Latin (altogether the fourth) edition of Dioscorides, the first to contain the translation of Ermolao Barbaro. The appendix contains the first edition ever of "Corollarii", Barbaro's conclusions, sometimes considered a separate work by bibliographers. - "Dioscorides' work is the authoritative source on the materia medica of antiquity. He described over 600 plants and plant principles" (Garrison/M.). "Very little is known about its author [...], except that he was a Cilician Greek who lived in the time of Claudius and Nero, and that he travelled widely in the Middle East, probably as a physician in the Roman army [...] It is no exaggeration to say that from its publication until well into the 17th century [...] all botanical studies were based on this book, and the greater part of any new botanical matter published during the 16th and 17th centuries was in the form of commentary on Dioscorides [...] It is only with the rise of modern scientific botany in the 18th century that his influence began to wane" (PMM). - Occasional light browning with more noticeable brownstaining to final leaves; a few wormholes (some within the text). A small paper flaw to the lower edge of the last few pages. - Provenance: 1) 17th-century ink ownership of Sinobaldi di Verona to title-page; 2) French bookseller Lucien Scheler (1902-99) with his collation mark "Coll. complet / L.S." pencilled to pastedown.

Fünff Bücher von Kriegs Regiment und Ordnung [...]. (Frankfurt am Main, David Zöpfel), 1558.

Folio (222 x 332 mm). (6), 131 ff., final blank f. With 20 woodcuts in the text. - (Bound with) II: Floridus (Sabinus), Franciscus.

Contemporary blindstamped leather on four raised double bands with two clasps; handwritten title to uppermost spine compartment. Second edition of one of the 16th century's most important treatises on warfare and military history, previously published in 1555. The fine woodcuts are not by Jost Amman, as are those of his well-known and similarly titled "Kriegsbuch", but rather were cut by an unidentified artist after drawings by Virgil Solis. - Bound with this rare and well-preserved work are two other contemporaneous editions of (military) historiography: Heinrich von Eppendorff's German translation of "De C. Iulii Caesaris praestantia" by Franciscus Floridus in a fine Strasbourg impression, and a Swiss chronicle of the times and rule of Emperor Henry IV (1050-1106), characterized by intense conflicts with the Pope (lacking the final three leaves and blank, containing "Ein Sendtbrieff Sant Ulrychen, Graaffen zu Kyburg"). - Slight browning throughout, waterstaining to gutter near the end. Handwritten ownership of N. V. Wernsdorff, dated 1559, on front pastedown, with note about his having passed away in Denmark and a slightly later ownership by Degenhard Grimm. Latterly in the library of the Viennese collector Werner Habel (1939-2015) with his handwritten and stamped ownership, dated 1978, to flyleaf.

Ibn Sina (Avicenna) / Mantino, Jacob (transl.).MareMagnum

Avicennae quarta fen primi libri de universali ratione medendi. Nunc primum M. Iacob Mantini medici hebrei opera Latinate donata. (Venice, Lucantonio Giunta, 8 April 1530).

8vo. 60 ff. With Giunta's device on the title-page (a Florentine lily with the L. A. initials). Later vellum with more recent end leaves. First edition of Jacob Mantino's translation into Latin of the fourth part of the first book of Ibn Sina's Canon of Medicine (original title: al-Qanun fi at-Tibb), divided into 31 chapters. Mantino dedicated it to the Doge of the Venetian Republic, Andrea Gritti (1455-1538). - Jacob Mantino (1490-1549) was a Jewish doctor, rabbi and philosopher. He was born in Spain, but he, his family and the Jewish community in Tortosa were forced to flee after refusing Catholic baptism, as decreed by King Ferdinand II and Queen Isabella I of Spain. Mantino grew up in Italy and studied philosophy and medicine at the universities of Bologna and Padua. Most of his adult life was spent being a doctor to the pope and other prominent members of society like cardinals, bishops and ambassadors in Bologna, Verona, Venice and Rome. He was also involved in the (religious) controversy over Henry VIII's divorce from Catharine of Aragon. In 1549, just before his death, he moved to Damascus as ambassador of Venice. Mantino's intellectual production focused on the translation of scientific works from Hebrew and Arabic into Latin, especially medical and philosophical treatises by leading authors of the medieval period, including Moses ben Maimon (Maimonides), Ibn Rushd (Averroes), and Ibn Sina (Avicenna). - Abu 'Ali al-Husayn Ibn Sina (also known by his Latinized name Avicenna, 980-1037) was one of the most prominent intellectuals of the medieval period and of the Islamic Golden Age. He was a Persian polymath; he wrote works on an incredible wide variety of subjects, including philosophy, medicine, astronomy, geography, psychology, Islamic theology, physics, and even poetry. Ibn Sina is mainly known for his medical encyclopaedia The Canon of Medicine, which became a standard medical text for medical students until the late 17th century. - The present work was printed by one of the most successful and important late 15th and early 16th century Italian publishers, Lucantonio Giunta (1457-1538). He was originally from Florence, but was active in Venice from 1489. He was a member of the Giunta family of printers, publishers and booksellers, who were active throughout Europe. - With owner's inscriptions on the front and back paste-downs and on the title-page, and some marginal annotations in brown ink. The paste-downs are partially covered by the newer, slightly foxed, end leaves. The binding is somewhat stained, light water staining to the first half of the work, small restored tears in the outer margin of leaves d1 and d2 without affecting the text. Otherwise in good condition. Durling 397. Edit 16, CNCE 3543. USTC 811590.

Justinus, Marcus Junianus.MareMagnum

Ex Trogi Pompeii historiis externis libri XXXXIII. Lyon, Sebastian Gryphius, 1546.

12mo. 418, (42) pp. Contemporary brown morocco with straight and curved fillets stamped in blind and gilt, central medallion with the author's name on both covers, fleur-de-lis stamps to corners and in spine compartments, structured by three raised bands. Edges goffered and gilt. Pretty and scarce edition in miniscule italics, meticulously printed by Gryphius, "l'un des hommes les plus savants de son temps, qui fut le maître de Jean de Tournes et, sans doute aussi, celui de l'imprimeur Estienne Dolet" (Béraldi). - Charmingly bound in full contemporary morocco with the characteristic stamps of Marcantonio Guillery of Rome: a wide band whose two lines variously interlock in the shape of two Cs, sparingly decorated with a variety of small ornaments, encloses a large central compartment neatly filled with tendril designs, at the centre of which an oval cartouche contains the name of the author. Guillery was one of the masters of Roman bookbinding in the mid-16th century; only a small number of his works survive. "He was a son of a French printer, Etienne Guillery of Lunéville, who established himself in Rome at the beginning of the century and married an Italian wife. The date of the son's birth is unknown [...] He bound seventy-one volumes for [Giovanni Battista] Grimaldi, almost half the total extant, but not more than thirty books bound by him are known outside the Apollo and Pegasus collection: a surprisingly small œuvre for a binder of his skill and taste with a working life of over twenty years" (Hobson). - Light foxing to interior. Hinges and spine-ends imperceptibly restored; in immaculate condition. - Provenance: 1) From the library of the famous French collector of fine bindings, Henri Béraldi (1849-1931; cf. Bogeng I, 197f.), with his bookplate to the front pastedown. 2) Acquired at the Béraldi sale (I, 29 May 1934, lot 17) by the French tobacco industrialist and philatelist Maurice Burrus (1882-1959); his bookplate to the front flyleaf and his purchase note on the lower flyleaf. 3) Acquired at the Burrus sale (Paris, 15 Nov. 1971, lot 78) by the French industrialist and philanthropist Paul Louis Weiller (1893-1993). An additional, earlier but unidentified bookplate on the lower pastedown, referencing a Théophile Belin catalogue. Gültlingen, Lyon V, 937. Baudrier, VIII, 205. Schweiger 2.1, 488. Hobson, Apollo and Pegasus, p. 89, no. 11. Not in Adams or BM-STC French. Cf. Hobson/Culot, Italian and French 16th Century Bookbindings, p. 25f.

['Arukh] Dictionarium chaldaicum non ta[m] ad Chaldaicos interpretes q[uam] Rabbinoru[m] intelligenda co[m]mentaria necessarium [...]. Basel, Johann Froben, 1527.

4to. (8), 434, (2) pp. With woodcut title border by Hans Holbein. - (Bound with) II: The same. [Dikduk de-lishan arami. In hakhasda'ah] Chaldaica grammatica [...]. Ibid., 1527. (8), 212, (4) pp. Both works have woodcut printer's devices at the end. Contemporary blindstamped browns calf with 2 clasps. Sammelband containing two rare works by Münster: the first grammar of Aramaic written in Germany, a principal work, and the first German-produced Aramaic dictionary. "His dictionary [was] adapted from Pagninus's excerpt of Nathan Ben Yehiel's Arukh [...] Münster's most important work [...] was his Aramaic grammar, the first of its kind. The 'Chaldean' element in the Bible has of course long since been recognised, and people like Aurogallus and Fagius had treated the subject earlier in connection with their Hebrew studies. But just as Sanctes Pagninus was the first to exclude deliberately the Aramaic vocabulary from his Hebrew dictionary (1529), so Münster was the first to publish both a grammar and a dictionary devoted solely to Aramaic [...] A special feature of this grammar is the lexicographical introduction to the rabbinical Bible commentaries, with various Latin-Hebrew wordlists of technical terms. Münster also gives examples of the Sephardi and Ashkenazi rabbinical script in woodcut [...] The author compares the Aramaic with Arabic (called by him Saracenica lingua) which he quotes in transcription" (Smitskamp). - Binding restored; endpapers replaced. Obliterated contemp. ownership to t. p.; a few contemp. marginalia near the beginning of the grammar. I: VD 16, M 6657. Burmeister 23. BM-STC German 633. Adams M 1920. Steinschneider 2014, 6.

Pantaleone die Confienza (Confluentia).MareMagnum

Pillularium omnibus medicis quam necessarium [...] Summa lacticiniorum completa omnibus idonea. [Including:] Zerbi, Gabriele. Cautele medicorum no[n] inutiles. (Lyon, Antoine Blanchard [and Laurent Hyllaire], 7 Jan. 1525 [= 1526]).

Small 4to (20 x 14 cm). XXXVIII, (2) ff. Title-page with a 4-piece woodcut border (using material from Laurent Hylaire). Modern limp sheepskin parchment. Third edition of a collection of three medical and gastronomical texts by two 15th century Italian physicians. All were published separately for the first time at the end of the 15th century, the first collected edition appeared in 1508. - The first, "Pillarium" by Pantaleone di Confienza, is one of the earliest treatises dealing exclusively with pills as remedies for all kinds of diseases. He treats all kinds of aspects of pills, including their various (natural) substances of pills, their various forms (powders, tablets, tinctures, extracts, etc.), their physiological and pathological effects, the preparation and conservation, etc. - The second, "Summa lacticiniorum", by the same author, is the first treatise specifically devoted to cheese and Dalby calls it a "landmark" in the literary discourse for cheese. "It opens with a general section discussing the nature of milk and the range of products made from its, especially cheese; it outlines the variety of cheeses, relating them to the seasons, the climate, the origin of the milk and the methods of making and maturing. In part two Pantaleone surveys the regional and local cheeses known to him, beginning in his own native norther Italy [...] He continues his cheese itinerary through Savoie and across France [...] He thinks little of German cheese, but considers the English ones that he had seen on sale at Antwerp equal in quality to the best Italian kinds" (Dalby). - The third, a treatise on medical ethics by Gabriele Zerbi (1445-1505), aims to protect the integrity of physicians and the medical profession. - Manuscript notes at the last page and a few pages with some underscoring and other marks. Waterstain throughout at the foot, larger towards the end, and the last leaves with wormholes; a good copy. Baudrier II, 431 & V, 98. Durling 3438. USTC 155658 (9 copies). Cf. Dalby, Cheese: a global history (2009), p. 117; Di Troggio, "Confienza, Pantaleone" in: Treccani Enciclopedia Italiana (online ed.).

SPECIMEN BOOKS PRESIDENTS BINDINGS Presidents of the United States 1789 to 1897 spine title White House Vignette. Romaine cover title with portraits signed by Grover Cleveland and FIrst Lady Frances Cleveland

189511071n. p. but Washington: U. S. Treasury Department Bureau of Engraving and Printing 1895. Hardcover. Near fine. Square octavo 21 numbered leaves of portrait plates plus four unnumbered. Bound in full crushed navy morocco with elaborate gilt tooling to boards spine compartments and edges with gilt dentelles all edges gilt and marbled endpapers. In near fine condition overall very well-preserved with a few tiny nicks to the corners and some scattered internal foxing mostly at the gutters and borders; and not on the proof images. The first two engravings depict the U. S. Capitol Building and the White House. The last two portraits of sitting President Grover Cleveland and his wife Frances are each SIGNED by their subjects in different ink below the images. The main contents consist of extremely well-executed and quite familiar portraits of the presidents; the very portraits that were used by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing on official U. S. banknotes. These Treasury Department specimen books were produced in very small numbers and presented to important diplomats cabinet secretaries members of Congress and the like. The proof engravings contained within were designed for use on official US banknotes though some of the images were likely never used on actual money. At the turn of the 21st century numismatic experts had counted 47 known examples. Several more have come to auction primarily numismatic since then but they remain extremely rare in the trade. No two specimen books are exactly alike. We could trade one example closely matching the contents of ours however that copy was in a different binding and did not include the signed portraits of President and Mrs. Cleveland. The name "Romaine" is stamped on the gilt-stamped morocco label on the front board and is almost certainly the surname of the intended recipient of this volume though without any further context nor any bookplates or written provenance we are unable to identify this person. When these books do occasionally come to auction there is much buzz. It is difficult to imagine a more interesting and treasured sort of volume for anyone who has an interest in numismatics and rare books. A rare chance to own a special volume of American printing history. (U. S. Treasury Department Bureau of Engraving and Printing) hardcover

187511070Washington DC: U. S. Treasury Department Bureau of Engraving and Printing 1875. Hardcover. Near fine. Small quarto unpaginated. Bound in full red crushed morocco with gilt borders edges spine title and compartments. All edges gilt. 144 engravings plus frontispiece and engraved title page. A near fine example with some small nicks to the boards and some mild scattered foxing internally. An extraordinary volume one of a small and undetermined number of these U. S. Treasury specimen books. These were printed and bound by the Treasury Department's Bureau of Engraving and Printing and presented to a select few diplomats cabinet secretaries and members of Congress. The proof engravings contained within were designed for use on official US banknotes though some of the images were likely never used on actual money. At the turn of the 21st century numismatic experts had counted 47 known examples. Several more have come to auction primarily numismatic since then but they remain extremely rare in the trade. No two specimen books are exactly alike; they usually contain a number of portraits of Presidents and other notable politicians but some as in our copy contain a number of vignettes of major events and places in US history along with more abstract concepts such as "Loyalty" and "Liberty and Union." Some significant examples herein include "Reconstruction" "Valley Forge" "The Patent Office" and far too many more to list. A number of the engravings have no caption and some of these are the most alluring. For example one of the largest images depicts a Native American man sitting on a cut-down tree head in hands as though he is weeping. Before him is a modern city with dozens of billowing smokestacks. Clearly this image is meant to portray the imminent conclusion to the United States Government's closing of the frontier and final usurpations of land from Indigenous people. It almost goes without saying that each and every one of the vignettes and portraits is of the most excellent quality both in design and execution as both the artists and the printing tools were of the highest order of the day. Though undated the title page names George B. McCartree as Chief of the BEP on the title page a position he held from 1869-1876 which would approximate the date. When these books do occasionally come to auction there is much buzz. It is difficult to imagine a more interesting and treasured sort of volume for anyone who has an interest in numismatics and rare books.

Thou, Jacques-Auguste de.MareMagnum

Hieracosophiou, sive de re accipitraria libri tres. Paris, King’s Printer "in officina Robert Estienne", 1584.

4to (220 x 150 mm). (4), 95, (13) pp. Half vellum (ca. 1892). First complete edition, in the original Latin, of one of the most famous and longest of De Thou's poems, a didactic verse in about 2780 hexameters devoted to hunting with falcons and other birds of prey, composed in three "libri" and addressed to François, Duke of Alençon, Anjou and Brabant (1555-84), the youngest son of the late King Henri II and Catherine de' Medici, and brother of the reigning King Henri III. It is the first major Latin work on the subject of falconry. Book 1 discusses the various kinds of birds of prey used in falconry and how to choose one, book 2 discusses their care and feeding, training and the practice of hunting with them, and book 3 discusses their medical care. De Thou anonymously published an advance version of books 1 and 2 at Bordeaux in 1582, but his own correspondence indicates that he had only a few copies of that edition printed, primarily to send them to colleagues (including Pierre Pithou, Claude Dupuy and Joseph Scaliger) for their corrections and suggestions. Harvard University has the only known copy of that edition, and De Thou decided not to complete it but instead to make extensive revisions and add the third book for the present edition, beautifully printed by the King’s Printer in Paris. The poem ends on p. 95, with the next page containing an “important” (Harting) note about the various kinds of birds of prey used for falconry and giving their French and Latin names. The last six leaves contain Thou’s 11-page letter to Philippe Huralt (1528-99), French chancellor under King Henri III, on the subject of falconry, and on the last page the corrigenda. Falconry was so popular in France from the reign of François I to that of Louis XIII that it can be considered the national pastime of the French nobility, as well as the prominent clergy, military figures and politicians in that period, 1515-1643. - With a modern armorial bookplate of the Verne d’Orcet family, whose great library on the subject of hunting was begun ca. 1900. Formerly side-stitched through 4 holes, B1 and B4 no longer conjugate but still securely attached, a faint marginal stain in the lower outside corner of the last few leaves and the foot of the title-page slightly thumbed, but still in very good condition and with large margins. The outer free endleaf at front and back slightly browned, but the binding also very good. Adams T 657. Harting 306. Souhart 461.

Frankfurt a. M., Nikolaus Basse, 1597.

8vo. (16), 168 (misnumbered: 167) pp. Title-page printed in red and black. With a woodcut in the text. Contemporary limp vellum with ties. All edges red. Very rare first German edition of this collection of alchemical works. The preface ("Typographus lectori") by the Basel printer Peter Perna, who printed the first Latin edition of the "Auriferae artis" in 1572, mentions Geber (Jabir ibn Hayyan), Avicenna (Ibn Sina), Rhases (al-Razi), Arnaldus de Villanova, and Raymond Lull. - The present edition is of special importance for containing the first German printing of Bacon's "Lapidis philosophorum" (pp. 109-168; not present in the Latin edition). Bacon believed that certain alchemical metals, produced under the influence of the stars and planets, were capable of prolonging human life. The book describes the various steps of alchemical art necessary for producing the Philosopher's Stone and for completing the Opus Magnum. The volume also contains the "Satzungen der Goldkunst" ("Propositions of the Art of Gold") and "Turba philosophorum" ("Philosophy of the Art of Gold"). - Binding a little rubbed and rather stained; upper cover warped; light edge damage. Interior somewhat browned and stained throughout with occasional dampstaining in the margins; corners a little buckled. Title-page a little dust-stained and trimmed closely at the upper edge. Wants front free endpaper; corners torn from lower free endpaper. VD 16, A 4356. Kopp II, 344. Brüning 693. Cf. Ferguson I, 405 (1608 reprint). Not in Adams or BM-STC German.
