1698H4GD9LIIY5STPadova: Typographia Seminaria 1698. Blind-tooled vellum ca. 1800 reusing and retooling vellum from a slightly earlier blind-tooled binding sewn on 6 double cords each board with a large scrollwork centrepiece over traces of the old one in a panel design made of fillets and corner pieces with the title finely lettered in pen and ink in the 2nd of 7 compartments the old title still faintly visible underneath it and the old volume number VIII faintly visible in the 3rd compartment. Folio 35.5 x 25 cm. With 2 title pages 1 primary and 4 secondary divisional titles in volume 1 more than a dozen woodcut head- and tailpieces plus numerous repeats and dozens of woodcut decorated initials about 9 series plus numerous repeats. Set in roman italic and Arabic types 3 sizes of Arabic with incidental Greek and Hebrew. 2 volumes bound as 1. The first scholarly printed Quran prepared by the anti-Islamic Catholic Ludovico Marracci with a much more accurate Arabic text than any previously printed and the first accurate Latin translation also including extensive notes based on the Islamic commentaries as well as the editor's extensive "refutations" of each sutra. Each sura is given first in Arabic then in Latin translation followed by notes and then the refutation. The entire first volume of about 430 pages is taken up with preliminary matter including a 24-page life of Muhammad one of the first detailed biographies ever printed and again more accurate than its predecessors an 8-page profession of faith with the Arabic and Latin in parallel columns and additional commentaries and introductory matter. The fact that this edition was produced explicitly as an attempt to refute the views of Islam has naturally led Islamic scholars to dismiss it but both the Arabic text and the Latin translation were far better than any previously printed and had no serious rival until the Leipzig edition of 1834. The commentaries also made a great deal of Islamic scholarship available to a European audience for the first time and both the Arabic and the Latin text influenced nearly every edition for the next 150 years.With two bookplates and an occasional early manuscript note and a few letters or numbers inscribed in the foot margin of one leaf. With a tear running into the text of one leaf repaired but otherwise in very good condition. With generous margins. The boards are slightly bowed and there is a small tear repaired at the foot of the spine. A ground-breaking work of Quranic scholarship a valuable source for the study of the Quran and an essential source for European views of Islam.l Cat. Bibl. A.-R.

16291052Antwerp: Officina Plantiniana = Balthasar I Moretus grandson of Christophe Plantin 1629. Uniform gold-tooled goatskin morocco ca. 1700 sewn on 4 supports richly gold-tooled spines gold-tooled turn-ins and board edges the boards in a panel design each board with a double frame of triple fillets the inner 2 fillets in each frame closer together than the outer with an ornament stamped on the intersections of the fillets at the corners of both frames and a flower in each corner between the frames with its head toward the corner; the spine with the title - BIBLIASACRA or NOVVMTESTA - and volume - TOM. I. etc. - in the 2nd of 5 compartments INDEX in the 3rd compartment of volume VII and the other compartments filled with curls and dots: a style sometimes called grotesque gold-tooled turn-ins marbled pastedowns blue red white and yellow extensively swirled headbands in green and white gilt edges. Seven volumes with the ca. 1711 engraved armorial bookplate of Jean Le Normand 1662-1733 Bishop of Evreau and probably bound for him his bookplate probably removed from volumes II and III as bound. 24mo in 8s 11.5 x 7 cm. With a richly engraved general title page 6 volume title pages each with the same Plantin-Moretus woodcut compasses device a smaller woodcut compasses device plus 3 of 4 repeats 2 appear on the back of the colophon; each of the others on an otherwise blank leaf woodcut tailpieces woodcut decorated initials. Set in roman and italic types. The present copy with 3 extra letterpress divisional title pages perhaps specially printed for this copy when it was bound. 7 volumes bound as 9 Old Testament I-VII & New Testament I-II. A small Latin Vulgate bible printed by the Plantin-Moretus office in Antwerp the smallest-format edition of the Sixtine-Clementine authorized Catholic text. The first volume of the Old Testament has only the engraved general title-page while each of the remaining Old Textament volumes as printed has a separate volume title-page naming the books it covers including the volume with the apocrypha miscellaneos texts and the indexes. After the general title-page follow a preface to the reader the decree of the Council of Trent "Paulus Papa V. Ad futuram rei memoriam" Pope Paul V died in 1621 and a privilege dated Brussels 1611. The Old Testament also has prefaces to the books. The New Testament has no preliminaries except its title-page. In 1546 the Council of Trent ordered a revision of the Vulgate Latin Bible to establish an authorized Catholic text. Pope Sixtus V ordered the preparation of the new edition printed by the Vatican Press and published in 1590. The book has been variously described as 12mo 16mo and 24mo but it is in fact a 24mo in 8s. The three divisional titles possibly printed specially for this copy have vertical chainlines and may be in 18mo format. The binding stamps are finely cut and skilfully applied especially the curls on the spine so it is likely to have been executed by one of the great French binders of ca. 1700.With an owner's inscription on a free endleaf in volume IV as bound "ce livre apartient a monseigneur L'Evesque D'Evreux" presumably Jean Le Normand 1662-1733 Bishop of Evreux from 1711 to his death whose bookplate appears in 7 of the 9 volumes: the handwriting is old-fashioned for 1711 so the book could have come to Le Normand from an earlier Bishop of Evreux but perhaps he simply wrote in an old-fashioned style. The pagination of volume ii accidentally omits numbers 577-578 but no leaf is missing there. Very slightly browned with an occasional minor spot and with the library stamps on the letterpress title-pages abraded but still generally in very good condition. With small cracks in the hinges of 4 volumes minor wear on the board edges and corners and volume III as bound vol. ii as printed darkened but the binding is also otherwise in very good condition with the tooling clear and sharp. A lovely little Catholic bible beautifully bound ca. 1700 in French gold-tooled red morocco an unusually small format for a Catholic bible.l Darlow & Moule 6211 New Testament only; STCV 6650952; USTC 1003882; not in www.bibliasacra.nl.

In 1575, he published his Sacra Bibliotheca Sanctorum Patrum in 8 volumes, gathering the works of ca. 200 early church writers, many of which were printed for the first time. It was re-edited, with the same title, in 1589 (2nd ed.) and 1610 (3r ed.). Subsequently it was re-edited with the title "(Magna) Bibliotheca Veterum Patrum.." in Cologne (1618-1622 in 14 vols.) and in Paris in 1624 (11 vols.) and 1644 (17 vols). Our 1654-edition is a re-edition of the Paris-1644-edition in 17 volumes. De La Bignes work was a strategic reponse to the Protestant Reformation, aiming to demonstrate that the Catholic doctrine was firmly rooted in the writings of the early Church Fathers. By providing authorized versions of texts and by providing such a large collection of patristic texts which previously existed only as manuscripts and/or separate works de La Bigne is considered to be the founder of modern patrology and precursor of the 19th cy.

1611WRCAM40080Spain 1611. 12pp. leaves numbered 1-6. In Spanish. Folio. Dbd. Early folds mild foxing. Very good. An early and evidently unrecorded 17th- century Spanish petition to the King on behalf of mendicant and monastic communities in the Spanish Americas. The authors argue that the churches attempting to tax their incomes and force them to pay tithes are hurting religious efforts in the Americas and infringing upon the historical independence of the religious orders from the churches. The document is signed in print by eleven monks each representing a different order: the Benedictines Hieronymites Franciscans Cistercians Mercedarians Dominicans Augustinians Trinitarians Jesuits Premonstratensians and Carmelites.
