Gotische Type, zweispaltig zu 44 Zeilen (Komm. 54-55 Z.), Spatien für einzumalende Initialen. Diagramme auf Bl. b7v und f2r. Blindgeprägter Kalbslederband des frühen 16.

Die Innendeckel bezogen mit Fragment aus Conrad Tocklers astronomischer Vorhersage "Judicium Lipsense", Leipzig 1503 oder 1508. Zweite bei Quentel gedruckte Ausgabe dieses Kommentars zu den "Summulae logicales" des Petrus Hispanus (Papst Johannes XXI.), mit dem Text dieses für die mittelalterliche scholastische Logik wohl wirkmächtigsten und verbreitetsten Werks. Darin werden "die Formen der dialektischen Disputation vorgeführt [...], anschließend die logica modernorum entwickelt und eine semantische Analyse der aristotelischen Begriffslogik [...] entfaltet" (LexMA V, 544).

"Seine Bücher [...] erschienen [...] in den letzten 20 Jahren des 15. bis in den Anfang des 16. Jahrhunderts, nicht selten ohne Jahr und Druckort, vielfach auch gedruckt bei Heinrich Quentel in Köln, der eifrig thomistische Werke verlegte; sie müssen viel gebraucht worden sein, da von einer Anzahl mehrere Auflagen rasch hintereinander gedruckt worden sind" (ADB 39, 637). - Einband berieben und stellenweise mit Bezugsdefekten; Schließen verloren. Die Innengelenke etwas gelockert; erste vorhandene Seite mit angeklebtem Falz des Vorsatzblattes und minimalem Eckdefekt (kein Textverlust); die letzten Blätter mit kleinen Wurmlöchern.

(Hus, Jan).MareMagnum

Liber egregius de unitate ecclesiae, cuius autor periit in concilio Constantiensi. [Basel, Adam Petri], (August 1520).

4to. (8), 231, (1) pp. With a large figurated woodcut "C" initial by Hans Holbein. 18th century half vellum with ms. spine title. First edition of Hus's principal work, commonly known in English as "Treatise on the Church", ascribed to Adam Petri's Basel printshop on the basis of typographical features. Written in 1413 at the castle of one of Hus's protectors in Kozí Hrádek, near Sezimovo Ústí, the book evidences the author's strong intellectual and spiritual ties with the English reformer John Wyclif, whose like-titled "De ecclesiae" has been written in 1378 (Hus however, unlike Wyclif, did not reject the notion of transsubstantiation). "This treatise became Huss's 'apologia pro sua vita', the defense of the views which he had drawn from Wyclif and advocated. [... It] has a place of first importance among works on the church [...] It is the best known work on the subject issued from Augustine to the Reformation period [and] has had a permanent influence upon the development of the idea of the church" (Schaff, Introduction to the 1915 edition, p. xi-xxxi). - A little more than a century after Hus was burned at the stake in Constance, Luther was sent a manuscript copy of the work and, upon reading it, enthusiastically embraced Hus's central tenets, famously writing to Georg Spalatin in February 1520 that "without knowing it, we are all Hussites". But half a year later, two printed versions appeared almost simultaneously in 1520 - one under the original title used here, the other entitled "De causa Boemica" (printed by Anshelm in Hagenau; the precise order of publication remains unclear). These first printings "enabled others to evaluate (or even emulate) Luther's conclusion [... The text was presented] in a disinterested manner, thus allowing an unbiased judgment of its contents"; it was published without polemical introduction or prologue, and the title page, "which did not mention Hus by name, contained the simple epigraph: 'I beg you, my kind reader, to attend not to who speaks, but to what is said'" (Haberkern). - Occasional slight brownstaining; a few insignificant wormholes to blank lower margin near end; old library shelfmark in ink to front pastedown. Quires M and Q bound out of order (3-4-1-2), but a complete, well-preserved and wide-margined copy. Quite scarce: only three copies in auction records internationally since 1975. VD 16, H 6173. BM-STC German 438. Adams H 1210. BNHCat H 630. Haberkern, Patron Saint and Prophet: Jan Hus in the Bohemian and German Reformations [Oxford 2016], p. 158.

[Estienne, Henri].MareMagnum

Catharinae Mediceae reginae matris, vitae, actorum, & consiliorum, quibus universum regno Gallici statum turbare conata est, stupenda eaque vera enarratio. [Geneva, H. Estienne?], 1575.

8vo. 116 (but: 117), (1) SS. 19th century red morocco with richly gilt inner dentelle, leading edges gilt, marbled pastedowns. All edges gilt. Very rare first Latin edition of this controversial pamphlet, previously published in French as "Discours merveilleux de la vie, actions & deportements de la royne Catharine de Medicis" ("Paris 1563", but in fact printed in the autumn of 1574). This stinging indictment of Catherine de Medici was reprinted several times and also saw a German translation, "Öffentliches Ausschreiben der übelbefriedigten Stände in Frankreich" (i.e., "Public announcement made by the malcontent estates in France"), edited by Johann Fischart. - "The most controversial book associated with the name of Henri Estienne; this notorious biography of Catherine de Médicis, in the form of a violent Huguenot pamphlet against her, has long been attributed to Henri Estienne, although serious doubt has been cast on this attribution" (Schreiber). The anonymous author presents himself as a Catholic who insists the Huguenots should not have been butchered, but rather converted by means of theological argument. "Undoubtedly the writer is a member of the large party of malcontents, many of whom - at least after the massacre - were Catholics, who hoped that all men of national spirit from both persuasions might unite to throw off the cruel yoke of the Queen mother's rule and end the civil wars. Among the many Huguenot pamphlets of the time, this is the one to aim the sharpest arrows at the Queen mother. It contains a vitriolic account of the Queen's life, describing her family and upbringing in the most disparaging terms and revealing all the schemes, misdeeds and crimes committed since the beginning of her rule in 1560 [...] Repeatedly the author points out how she makes use of the precepts of her Florentine compatriot Macchiavelli" (A. Hauffen, Fischart-Studien, in: Euphorion 8 [1901], S. 536f.). - Light browning and very occasional light staining, sumptuously bound in the 19th century. Adams S 1754. BM-STC French, Suppl. 22. Renouard 143, 8. Schreiber 196.

Morienus (Romanus).MareMagnum

De transfiguratione metallorum, et occulta, summaque antiquorum philosophorum medicina, libellus. [Chrysorrhemon]: sive de arte chymica. Hanau, Wilhelm Antonius, 1593.

8vo. 79, (1) pp. - (Bound after) II: Mock, Jakob. De causis concretionis et dissolutionis rerum quarundam, tam extra quam intra corpus humanum. Tractatio historica, philosophica et medica, secundum veterum ac recentiorum placita descripta, & in tres partes distributa. Freiburg im Breisgau, Martin Böckler, 1596. (16), 288, (14) pp., final blank leaf. Contemporary full vellum; lacks ties. Final and best 16th century edition of this alchemical work originally written in Arabic, the first edition having appeared at Paris in 1559. The legendary Byzantine monk Morienus is said to have gone to Alexandria to study with the Arabian scholar Adfar, whose favourite student he became. Subsequently settling in Jerusalem as a hermit, he devoted his life to the hermetic arts before he learned that Khalid, the Sultan of Egypt, "was desirous to find some one who could interpret for him the writings of Hermes and of Adfar" (Ferguson II, 109). Morienus supposedly went to Egypt and instructed Khalid in the art of creating the elixir for the philosopher's stone. "The ultimate fate of Morienus is unknown, but his conversations with Kalid must have been committed to writing, and they may have come to the West about the time of the Crusades. They were in Arabic, but to make them available they were translated into Latin in February, 1182, by Robertus Castrensis, with a short preface" (Ferguson). No Arabic sources have been discovered, for which reason the attribution has been considered apocryphal, but the author does use chemical terminology with Arabic roots, such as "al-natron". The book marks the beginning of western preoccupation with alchemy, previously almost entirely unknown in mediaeval central Europe, and even Goethe quotes from it in his "Theory of Colours". - II: Bound first is a rare medical work by Jakob Mock, professor at Freiburg and a good friend of Fabricius Hildanus. This would seem to be part 1 only (caption title: "De aquarum quarundam affectionibus ratione coagulationis vel indurationis & dissolutinis, & alias"); no more published. - Unidentified 19th century library stamp to front pastedown. Covers slightly warped; long yapp edge of the vellum binding trimmed away along lower half of the book. Interior lightly browned, some light, mainly marginal spotting and brownstaining, a few darker spots occasionally affecting letters. Old handwritten ownership of "Claudius Cuppinius" on title-page of Mock's work, with an additional note in the same hand, dated 1691, on the flyleaf. I: VD 16, M 6354. Wellcome 4458. Neu 2849.

[Gessner, Conrad; Pseud.:] Euonymus Philiater.MareMagnum

Der erste (-ander) Theil, deß köstlichen unnd theuren Schatzes Euonymi Philiatri, darinn behalten sind vil heimlicher guter stuck der artzney, fürnemmlich aber die art und eygenschafft der gebranntnen wasseren vnd ölen, wie man die selbigen bereiten sölle: deßgleichen jeder wasseren und ölen art und eygenschafft, nutz und brauch [...]. (Sankt Gallen, Leonhard Straub für Josias Geßner in Zürich), 1582(-1583).

4to. 2 pts. in 1 vol. (8), 368, (18) pp., final blank. (8), 305 (but: 307), (13) pp. Both title pages printed in red and black. With 2 different woodcut title vignettes and numerous text woodcuts. Contemp. blindstamped pigskin over wooden boards with bevelled edges. Remains of clasps. All edges red. Principal alchemical work of the Swiss physician, botanist and zoologist Gessner: the first complete German edition of the "Thesaurus de remediis secretis", translated by the Zürich theologian Johann Rudolf Landenberger and the physician Johann Jakob Nüscheler. The first part had appeared in German in 1555; only in 1569 did Caspar Wolf edit the posthumous Latin first edition of the second part, based on Gessner's notes. "This collection of recipes for medicines, the distillation of essential oils, and winemaking was first published under the pseudonym Euonymus Philiatrus because Gesner considered it not quite up to his own exact standards. It became his most popular book" (Wellisch). The woodcuts picture various destillation apparatus. - Binding rather rubbed; interior somewhat fingerstained; paper defects to the final three leaves of the index professionally restored (including portions of lost text). As always, the year of printing on the title page, stated as "1582" in Roman numerals, has been corrected to "1583" in slightly different ink. Contemp. ownership of the surgeon Christoff Zirckendorffer in red and brown ink ("A[nn]o 16[0]1 Jar") on the flyleaf. VD 16, G 1809, ZV 25033. Graesse III, 69. Wellisch A 32.18 & B2.14.

Galenus (Galen), Claudius.MareMagnum

De medicamentorum compositione secundum locos, libri decem, nunc primum in lucem editi. Venice, (Luca Antonio Giunta), 1536.

8vo. (24), 207, (1) ff. With Giunta's woodcut device on title-page and repeated on the otherwise blank last leaf. Modern brown morocco. Second edition, the first printed by Giunta, of Galen's "On the composition of medicine according to locality", edited and translated into Latin by Johann Winter von Andernach (1505-74). Andernach's translation was first printed in the previous year in Paris by Simon Colines. "There is no name more illustrious in the whole history of medicine than that of Galen [...] Written in Greek, this Galenic treasure reached the Latin Western World only through Arabic translations" (Hagelin). - The recipes, mostly taken from earlier authorities such as Andromachus, Asclepiades, Pharmacion, Archigenes and others, are arranged from head to foot, starting with ailments of the hair, head, ears and nose, eyes, face and teeth, and mouth, and continuing down the body through the respiratory tract, stomach and liver, genitalia, kidney and bladder, and ending with sciatica and gout of the feet. - "During the 1530s the eminent printer, Luca Antonio Giunta (1517-37), decided to publish a comprehensive edition of Galen's works in Latin so that physicians would no longer have to rely on writings from Greek and Arabic sources. Montanus, who led the editorial effort, chose many noted authorities and scholars to aid in the massive undertaking" (Heirs of Hippocrates). Giunta's editions of Galen are considered the most import together with those of Aldus, and together with those Froben considered the most readable. - With the stamp of the Birmingham University library bindery on the end pastedown. Some underscoring and early manuscript annotations. Some wormholes through the title-page and smaller ones through a few following leaves, dampstains throughout and one leaf with a tear; a fair copy. Durling, A chronological census of renaissance editions and translations of Galen 1536.9. Durling 1862. USTC 831429. Wellcome I, 2564. Cf. DSB V, pp. 227-235; Garrison, History of medicine, pp. 116f.; Hagelin, Rare and important medical books, pp. 12-15; Heirs of Hippocrates 37.

Nicander of Colophon.MareMagnum

Theriaca. Paris, Morelius, 1557.

4to. (8), "225" [= 215], (1 blank); "80" [= 72] pp. Including: Nicander of Colophon. Alexipharmaca. In Nicander Theriaca scholia auctoris incerti, et vetusta et utilia. In eiusdem Alexipharmaca diversorum auctorum scholia. 3 parts in 1 volume. Each part with its own title-page, with a woodcut caduceus device on all three. Set in roman and Greek types. 17th-century(?) richly gold-tooled red morocco, gilt edges; subtly rebacked, with the original backstrip laid down. Bilingual edition (Greek & Latin) of two medical hexametric poems by the Hellenistic poet and physician Nicander of Colophon (fl. second century BC), followed by a part with ancient scholia in Greek. The two poems are followed by comments by its translator, the Parisian pharmacist Jean de Gorris (1505-1577). They were first published separately in 1549 and 1556 and here for the first time published together. Nicander wrote at least 20 works, but "only his Theriaca (958 hexameters on poisonous creatures and on antidotes for their bites and stings) and Alexipharmaca (630 hexameters on antidotes to poisons) are extant". - "Nicander's influence on later Greek and Latin literature was considerable. Not only did Virgil, Ovid, and Antoninus Liberalis draw on his works, but Lucan, Pliny the Elder, Erotian, Aelian, and Athenaeus of Naucratis also benefited from direct or indirect familiarity with Nicander. In the 1st century BC the enormously learned scholar Didymus ("Chalcenterus") appears to have made extensive use of Nicander's lexicographic contributions. Although Dioscorides only twice cites Nicander's views in his Materia Medica, Galen in his pharmacological works quotes a number of verse passages from Nicander. Papyrus fragments from the 1st to 3rd centuries AD further confirm Nicander's popularity in the Roman empire" (Von Staden). - With the bookplate of the British politician John Thynne, Baron Carteret of Hawnes, dated 1841. Washed, with some faint early manuscript notes. Durling notes that, like in our copy, a general title-page is lacking in their copy, but this appears to be as usual. Internally in very good condition. Rebacked, lower hinge weakened, front hinge professionally repaired. Durling 3341. USTC 160585. Wellcome I, 4530. Cf. H. Von Staden, "Nicander" in N. Wilson, Encyclopedia of ancient Greece (2006).
