First edition limited to 1000 copies of which this is number 749.<br /><br />This work continues the work of two previous works and has served to make some adjustments on the geographical distribution and organization of religious orders in the sixteenth century. In it an attempt to study the ecclesiastical division of New Spain and the difficulties encountered by the religious to the large indigenous population is made; also thoughts to substantiate the relationship between the Western world and the Indian. The province of Chalco played a very important role because of its geographical position. To understand it not as an essential determinant but as an element that allows a geographic and human joint affecting indigenous occupations this must be taken into account.<br /><br />Condition:<br /><br />Front corner creased some light soiling to cover edge wear else a very good copy.

1544321627Wittenberg Germany: Veit Kreutzer 1544. Hardcover. Very Good. Wittenberg: Veit Kreutzer 1544 German edition of Melanchthon's Loci Communes first published in Latin in 1521 as "Loci communes or Loci communes rerum theologicarum seu hypotyposes theologicae" Latin for Common Places in Theology or Fundamental Doctrinal Themes. Very good. Pages of the text are numbered entirely in roman numerals to page CCCLIII. With an unnumbered register index of 23 pages. Beautiful contemporary stamped ivory vellum veneer boards with a set of elegant silver clips. No front endpaper. The copy bears an early bookplate "Ex bibliotheca Gust. Ad. Hauseri theol et philos. stud. Cl nr" inside the front board. Light pencil signatures from the 19th century trace the stewardship of Ole Lokensgaard 1854-1931 Granite Falls Minnesota who came to the US in 1857. The family was associated through his son Gerhard W. Lokensgard with St. Olaf College in Northfield. It has been held by the family through 3 generations. The Loci Communes evolved with the reform movement. This 1544 edition is translated by Justus Jonas into German based on Melanchthon's 1542 revision. Title in English: "The Heubtartike Christian Literature/ drawn together/ By Philippum Melanthon/ called in Latin/ Loci Communes Theologici. Germanized by Justum Jonam/Doctor/ and in the 1542nd year/ By Philip. Melanth. checked again and improved." The Loci Communes evolved with the movement. Philipp Melanchthon 1497 – 1560 was a German reformer a collaborator with Martin Luther and part of the Wittenberg team that established the foundation of the Protestant Reformation. Melanchthon was its first systematic theologian and an intellectual leader of the Lutheran Reformation who with Luther was a primary founder of Lutheranism. Loci Communes was Melanchthon's Magnum Opus. "Melanchthon points out that he wrote the Loci Communes to encourage people to bypass extra-biblical sources and go straight to scripture. He does not believe it makes sense to try to integrate philosophy with the interpretation of the Holy Scriptures. Melanchthon berates the scholastic methodology of dialectic. He discusses the skewing of scripture that those who employ such methodology foisted upon the interpretation of scripture". The colleagues that Luther assembled in Wittenberg’s theological faculty formed the nucleus of his team. This included Justus Jonas 1493 –1555 who served in addition to roles as advisor and legal expert as translator of the works of Luther and Melanchthon from Latin into German or German into Latin. In the 16th century intellectuals across Europe spoke Latin. To spread the Wittenberg message this process of translation and revision was essential to the maturing of the movement. The later editions were published from 1543-1559 with the final edition being published just one year before Melanchthon’s death in 1560. The 1560 edition is four times the size of the original 1521 edition. "The German text of the third generation remains close to the second generation of the Latin Loci; the text is a revision by Melanchthon of the translation of Jonas.He once confessed that he found the final revision of this German translation better than the Latin Loci CR 22 31/32." We believe that this 1544 Jonas translation may be the one to which Melanchthon refers. But that is a matter for further scholarly investigation. The simple beauty of the copy with its silver clasps is exceptional. Veit Kreutzer hardcover

1400ABC_48074Northern Germany 1400. 8vo. Early 19th-century gold-tooled vellum showing a gold-tooled floral frame on both boards with a leather closing tie on the front gold-tooled board edges gilt edges. Written in Latin on relatively thin parchment leaf 11.5 x 8.5 cm text block 7.8 x 5.2 cm in a gothic hand "semi-textualis" in one column of 17 lines per page using black/dark brown ink. The manuscript is rubricated throughout with a 3-line red and blue initial at the start of each part and 2- or 1-line lombards alternating in red and blue at the start of each smaller section ruled in pencil. 131 ll. This small prayer and hymn book which was likely made in Northern Germany can be related to the veneration of Saint Joseph which was popular in the 15th century. The manuscript was meant for personal use by a layperson either during mass or at home. It includes the verses of Saint Bernard a short text by Jean Gerson 1363-1429 hymns and prayers for the Elevation and the Eucharist hymns and prayers relating to Easter Pentecost and the Feast of Corpus Christi prayers to the archangels John the Baptist and Francis and Clare of Assisi and suffrages addressed to various saints including Saint Joseph Saint Joachim Saint Anne Saint Stephen Saint Onuphrius and Saint Maurice.Personal prayer books like the present work were very popular in the late Middle Ages as they allowed laypeople to develop a routine of personal devotion. These works were often adapted to the needs and wishes of the owner and can therefore offer a lot of insight into their beliefs. The present work is somewhat unusual because it places more focus on Joseph than on Mary. A large portion at the end is made up of the suffrages or short prayers to various saints. The suffrages were always in order of importance starting with the Trinity and Mary and ending with female martyrs. However in the present manuscript Mary is not included in the suffrages while Joseph is one of the first to be mentioned even before the Apostles. In addition Joseph is described as "nutritoris domini" English: nurturer of the Lord which is what he was called by those who worshipped him.The present manuscript offers a unique insight into the spread of the Cult of St. Joseph and what his veneration might have looked like in daily life. A complete list of contents is available upon request.With a manuscript owners inscription on the front paste-down some pencil annotations on the front paste-down and some loose paper scraps showing manuscript prayers after leaf 131v. The vellum on the binding is artificially darkened and the closing tie on the back board is missing. Quires a-e8 the first three leaves of quire f and possibly a leaf in quire k are lacking otherwise the text is complete according to the catchwords between the present quires. With a small hole on leaf 3 with partial loss of one letter portions of text primarily rubrication have been crossed out on leaves 8 15r 26 28r 33v 35v and 36r the ink on some of the leaves is rubbed.

ST12778-0083Italy late 11th or early 12th century. 413 x 285 mm. 16 1/4 x 11 1/8". Double column 47 lines of text in a pleasing early gothic hand. <br/> One two-line initial "M" in red. With a few lines of marginal notes in a later 16th century hand. ◆Probably lacking a line or two at the head as well as half of one column scattered light stains with a few darker stains in one corner touching the text but still legible scattered small wormholes one half-inch hole affecting a few words of text and yet a remarkably clean leaf the remaining text entirely legible.<br/> <br/> The text here in a very good hand is on the death of Saint Martin of Tours. While it is more likely from a Lectionary with the reading for Martinmas November 11 it could be from a separate copy of Sulpicius. The fourth century founder of French monasticism Martin of Tours is celebrated as the Soloman of shawls. One of the most beloved episodes of his early life is a the tale that demonstrates the sensible limits of charity: instead of heedlessly surrendering his cloak to a shivering beggar he encounters he sagely divides it in two so that both he and the object of his benevolence will be warm. The script here has many lingering features of Carolingian minuscule and this fact plus the grand size of the leaf combine to give it very considerable antique beauty. unknown
