Ioannis Papae XXII Tum Communes [ Corpus de droit canonique complet en 3 Tomes - Corpus Iuris Canonici ] Impressionnant exemplaire bien complet du Corpus juris canonici, dans l'édition lyonnaise de Pierre Landry (partagée au moins avec Pillehotte et P. Rousselet). Le Corpus est l'ensemble de textes constitutifs du droit canonique en vigueur entre 1582 et 1917. Il est constitué de plusieurs grands textes : le décret de Gratien (Decretum Gratiani), qui en est le socle, puis les cinq livres qui constituent la collection des décrétales : les décrétales de Grégoire IX (Decretales Gregorii IX), compilées par Raymond de Peñafort, le Sexte (Liber Sextus), les Clémentines (Clementinae), les Extravagantes de Jean XXII (Extravagantes Johannis XXII) et enfin les Extravagantes communes (Extravagantes Communes). Publié en 1580, le corpus fut rendu obligatoire par un bref papal en 1582. D'origine française, l'imprimeur Pierre Landri exerce la librairie à Lyon et à Medina del Campo, en Espagne (ainsi qu'à Salamanque). Il participera aux foires allemandes jusqu'en 1614, et fut échevin de Lyon en 1615 et 1616. Etat très satisfaisant (premier plat du troisième volume détaché, rel. frottées avec petits mq., qq. mouill. et rares petites galeries de vers n'affectant pas le texte). Latin

1890List1326Costa Rica 1890. Albumen photographs 9 x 7 ½ inches on larger mounts with credits to Rudd y Paynter and the Paynter Bros. Near Fine. H.N. Rudd and the Paynter Brothers Richard and John were photographers who were active in Costa Rica in the 1890s operating out of San Jose. Five of these views show the Rudd y Paynter mark on versos with their address at the Parque Central in San Jose. The Paynters were from the United States arriving in 1874 and first establishing Rudd y Paynter out of a shop in the Parque Central where they also sold marble and art objects. In 1895 the studio changed its name to Paynter Bros. <br /> <br /> Collected here are nine scarce albumen views of Costa Rica from the 1890s. Five of them document a trip up Mt. Turrialba these bear the Rudd y Paynter mark. Of the other other four one image shows a building likely in San Jose with a gathered crowd; one shows a very striking mural and is captured “Corpus Christi / Cartaga Costa Rica June 4 / 96 this shows no photographers mars though the size and format are identical to the others and we presume the photographers to be the Paynter brothers; One shows industrial coffee machinery on “El Canada†the last shows a group of people in front of the bridge over the Rio Grande with a platform showing the markings of the Hamlin Car and Wheel Company of Catwissa PA. The group with the exception of the Corpus Christi image are mounted on uniform heavy cardstock mounts with gilt edges and remain in particularly fine condition with excellent contrast and some light wear to mounts. Overall a scarce group documenting Costa Rica at a time when few photographers operated. unknown

In-8°, 264, (2cc), marca editoriale con motto “Veritas filia temporis” sul frontespizio, legatura in pergamena, buone condizioni. Prima edizione. Tutta la sua vita, per quanto risulta almeno dalle scarse notizie pervenuteci, ruotò intorno agli Este, di cui anche i suoi avi erano stati fedeli servitori. Dedicando nel 1551 ad Alfonso II, futuro duca di Ferrara, la sua traduzione dei Fasti di Ovidio, il C. precisa che i servizi della sua famiglia erano stati particolarmente apprezzati al tempo del duca Ercole I (1471-1505). Nella stessa dedica il C. accenna al fatto di essere rimasto quasi solo al mondo e questo, a parte i dati che accompagnano la notizia del battesimo, è tutto ciò che sappiamo della sua vita familiare. La data di morte è ignota: un termine post quem è costituito dalla dedica dell'edizione veneziana del 1571 delle Imagini, la sua opera più famosa, che è rivolta al cardinale Luigi d'Este e reca la data del 10 settembre 1569. In-8 °, 264, (2cc), printer’s mark with the motto "Veritas filia temporis" on the frontispiece, vellum binding, good condition. First edition. His whole life, as far as at least from the scant news we have received, Vincenzo Cartari revolved around the Este family, of whom even his ancestors had been faithful servants. Dedicating in 1551 to Alfonso II, future Duke of Ferrara, his translation of Ovid's Fasti, C. specifies that the services of his family had been particularly appreciated at the time of Duke Ercole I (1471-1505). In the same dedication C. mentions the fact that he remained almost alone in the world and this, apart from the data accompanying the news of the baptism, is all we know about his family life. The date of death is unknown: a post quem term is the dedication of the Venetian edition of 1571 of the Imagini, his most famous work, which is addressed to cardinal Luigi d'Este and bears the date of 10 September 1569.
