Paulus Bel exemplaire bien complet des 2 parties. Il s'agit de l'un des toutes premières impressions réalisés dans la ville de Siegen (Westphalie) par l'imprimeur protestant né à Zurich, Christoph Corvin (1552-1620), avec sa belle marque d'imprimeur aux corbeaux avitaillant Elie. Corvin avait suivi l'Académie calviniste de Herborn jusqu'à Siegen en 1595. Une ancienne annotation manuscrite en anglais, rédigée en garde et attribuable au rédacteur de l'ex-libris, William R. Williams, relève dans l'avant-dernière page de la préface l'évocation des "Victims of St Barthelemeos Massacres throughout France 22 years before estimated at 60.000". A propos de la page 16 de la seconde partie, il commente : "pointing gunpowder not modern inventions". Concernant la page 61 : "Idle walking condemned in Sparta". Beautiful copy, complete with both parts. This is one of the very first prints made in the city of Siegen (Westphalia) by the Zurich-born printer Christoph Corvin (1552-1620), with his beautiful printer's mark : Elie fed by ravens. Corvin had arrived there in Siegen with the Calvinist Academy of Herborn in 1595. An old handwritten annotation in English, written on front endpaper and attributable to the author of the ex-libris, William R. Williams, notes in the penultimate page from the preface the evocation of "Victims of St Barthelemeos Massacres throughout France 22 years before estimated at 60,000". Regarding page 16 of the second part, he comments: "pointing gunpowder not modern inventions". Regarding page 61: "Idle walking condemned in Sparta". latin

Single column 31 lines text in two sizes in a gothic hand. <br/> Rubrics in red several one- and two-line initials in red and two larger initials in red. A few lines with neumes later notations in the margins now quite faded. ◆Vellum a bit soiled and creased as expected fading to four or five lines where the spine was placed several notches along one edge other imperfections due to its reuse as binding scrap but still an excellent specimen that is almost entirely legible.<br/> <br/> Written in a neat and attractive hand this sizable leaf from a Missal remains mostly quite legible with all its rubrication intact despite having been used as part of a binding. A few lines also show musical notation from the earliest generation of neumes. They are described as "in campo aperto" which means literally "in an open field" because they and they alone occupy the space or "field" above the text. They are also described as adiastematic because they appear in a straight line whereas later diastematic neumes reflect changes in pitch by being placed in a higher or lower vertical position above the text. At the time the present leaf was written out the neumes here simply served as an "aide memoire" to the singer who had already learned the melody orally. unknown

"Ben Hiyya was also distinguished in biblical exegesis and left an Aramaic translation of parts of the Bible which is often quoted. It is not to be assumed however that Joseph translated the whole Bible though the Aramaic translation of the Books of Chronicles is ascribed to him. Enc. Jud. The editio princeps edited from an Erfurt manuscript by Matthias Frederick Beck and accompanied by substantial annotations was published at Augsburg in 1680. "After this David Wilkins gave the public an edition from a Cambridge manuscript of which the text was more pure and more complete. The critic should unite both these editions the former for the value of its learned notes and the latter for its full and accurate text†The Biblical Repertory. <br /> <br /> The Coptic scholar David Wilkens 1685–1745 was born of Prussian parentage in Memel Lithuania. Little is known about his education in Germany probably in Berlin or how he acquired his knowledge of ancient and Semitic languages which was extensive rather than profound. He referred to the antiquarian Ezechiel Spanheim the elector of Brandenburg's ambassador in England from 1701 to 1710 as his former teacher. By 1707 Wilkins was studying at the Bodleian Library in Oxford and had encountered a group of clerical protectors in London. In 1709 engaged in preparing a history of the patriarchs of Alexandria which remained in manuscript and the editio princeps of the Coptic Bohairic New Testament the Novum Testamentum Aegyptium 1716 he left for the continent. He called on scholars examined manuscripts in Vienna Rome and Paris and stopped in Amsterdam in 1714 to see to the publication of his first works -- an edition of the Aramaic paraphrasis of the books of Chronicles and an Armenian version of the apocryphal third epistle to the Corinthians 1715 -- and of John Chamberlayne's polyglot edition of the Lord's prayer to which he contributed. Wilkins was an industrious scholar. In the three years he spent as librarian at Lambeth he made important contributions to the cataloguing of manuscripts. In 1721 he edited the Anglo-Saxon laws in 1725–6 the complete works of John Selden and in 1731 the Coptic Pentateuch. His main work was his Concilia Magnae Britanniae et Hiberniae an account of British church councils from 446 to 1717. Wilkins had many detractors -- John Gagnier the professor of Arabic at Oxford who deplored his incompetence in Arabic and Hebrew Edward Harley who described him as ‘a very great scoundrel’ and the cantankerous Thomas Hearne who as librarian at the Bodleian had watched him turn from a young man ‘of a civil Courteous and modest behaviour’ into ‘a vain ambitious man of little judgement tho' great industry’ ready to ‘do anything in the World for a little Money’ Alastair Hamilton: "Wilkens David" -- ODNB online.<br /> <br /> Provenance: From the library of G.H.A.
