Not by [Miracle?]. Pizzaro was the Conqueror of Peru about 1520." Gonzalo Pizarro (1513-1548) was a Spanish conquistador who was one of his brother Francisco's main lieutenants during the conquest of the Inca Empire. Gonzalo was cruel and ruthless, but undeniably a very effective soldier. After the conquest, he fought alongside his brothers and their supporters during the civil wars that broke out among the conquistadors. Later, he led the resistance in Peru to the "New Laws" of 1542, taking up arms against an official Spanish Viceroy: this earned him a royal execution in 1548. "Gonzalo's remains were not exposed to the indignities inflicted on Carbajal's, whose quarters were hung in chains on the four great roads leading to Cuzco. Centeno saved Pizarro's body from being stripped, by redeeming his costly raiment from the executioner, and in this sumptuous shroud it was laid in the chapel of the convent of Our Lady of Mercy in Cuzco." (Precott, The Conquest of Peru, p.497).

Four folio volumes in two sturdy decorated board slipcases, fine. Over 2500 pages. A reprint of the first monument of Spanish bibliography, a bibliographical dictionary of Spanish authors with highly detailed descriptions of the various editions of their works. The first edition was published in the late 17th century. The second edition, which is reproduced faithfully here, has long been regarded as the best because of its textual correctness and Ibarra's peerless typography.

Three volumes. Engraved frontis and other engraved plates, two of them folding. Inconsequential marginal worming in one volume. 16mo. Worn leather backed boards binding. Spines should be replaced. XLib. [French Art Alliance, New York]. An important satire which parodies the assembly of the Etats Generaux held in 1593 (with the object of electing a Catholic King). It expresses the views in favor of the claims of Henri IV while opposing the Ligue [Spanish League and its supporters]. The satires greatly influenced the outcome of the assembly, and Henry IV was elected. The work is divided into three parts. It begins with a burlesque description of the opening procession of the assembly and this is followed in the second part by a catalogue of the chief Ligueurs and imaginary speeches by real persons. Finally, there are miscellaneous satires and epigrams. Written at the moment of the defeat of the Ligue, it was an immediate 'best-seller'. Authorship is usually ascribed to Jean Leroy, a canon of Rouen, with the collaboration of Jean Passerat, Pierre Pithou, Nicolas Rapim and others. This is the standard eighteenth century edition. The title of the lampoon derives from Saturae Menippeae, lost work of Varro based on satires by the Greek cynic Menippus. Brunet V-145; Cohen-De Rici 939. FR2

Although attributed here to Beaumont and Fletcher, later scholarship increasingly favours authorship by Fletcher and Massinger. The play, one of the finest Restoration comedies, was first performed in 1622 with the first licensed edition following in 1647.

Hardcover, 8vo, 482 pages. S. 479-482: Americo Castro. Selected bibliography. The Richard Kronstein foundation for the promotion of Jewish and cognate studies. Castro (18851972) , was a Spanish historian and literary critic. Castro was a professor at the University of Madrid and later at Princeton University. He interpreted the culture and history of Spain as a result of the coming together of Christianity, Islam, and Judaism, which created a peculiarly Hispanic form of life, different both from the East and from the civilization of Western Europe. The expulsion of 1492 was in Castro's view the result of uncontainable pressures from below. He believes that the preoccupation with purity of lineage in Christian Spain from the 15th century on was a transfer of a Jewish concept, due to the infiltration of converts into Christian society. The use of secrecy and informers by the Inquisition was a continuation of methods used by Jewish tribunals. Ultimately, according to Castro, it was the Jews and their descendants the Conversos who were responsible for the discrimination by the Spaniards against the New Christians because of the latter's blood or race and for the cruel and unjust methods employed by the Inquisition and the maltreatment of those who were brought to trial before it. These were all derived from Jewish sources and traditions. Castro relied on "evidence" from the Bible, from the origin of the Spanish aristocracy, from medieval Jewish authors like Santob de Carrion (Shem Tov ben Ardutiel) , R. Moses Arragel, R. Asher ben Yehiel, R. Solomon ben Adret, and others. Castro's evidence is based entirely on a basic misunderstanding of the sources, of the Jews' understanding of the biblical text, and of the essence of Jewish law (Scholberg in EJ 2007) .
