1625WRCAM39163Madrid: Bernardino de Guzman 1625. 4pp. In Spanish. Decorative woodcut initial on first page. Small folio. Dbd. Light contemporary annotations in margins of each page. Early folds. Loss repaired in silk to gutter and outer margins and along one fold affecting a few characters of text on p.4. Overall very good. Rare Spanish newsletter reporting on recent victories by the Portuguese against the Dutch the Persians and others throughout Asia in 1624. The early 17th century saw the Dutch begin to present a serious threat to Portuguese power and commerce in the East and by the mid-1620s the Portuguese were beleaguered by constant attacks by the Dutch navy and its various Asian allies. The present Spanish newsletter celebrates one of the last great series of Dutch defeats by the Portuguese who are lauded here by their Iberian partners as worldwide defenders of the Catholic faith holding their ground against overwhelming odds. Within a few years the Dutch would clearly gain the upper hand in Asia both militarily and commercially and by 1663 would control much of the Malabar Coast Ceylon Indonesia Malacca and European trade with Japan leaving Portugal only with bases at Macao East Timor and Portuguese India. The newsletter discusses several naval battles off the coast of Persia down the Malabar Coast to Ceylon to Malacca China and Macao. A significant portion of the pamphlet describes the heavy Portuguese losses sustained by repeated attacks on Macao by the Dutch who by this time had established a base in the Pescadores Islands. In the last paragraph attention is turned to the activities of the Jesuits in Ethiopia described here as the "Realm of Prester John" and the recent conversion of Ethiopian King Suseynos to Roman Catholicism. Palau records four printings of the text assigning priority to the present document and locating one copy at the National Library in Madrid. Palau also notes that a copy of this printing was sold by Maggs Bros. for Ã‚Â£5 5s in 1927 and by Melchor GarcÃƒÂa for 35 pesetas in 1934. OCLC locates four copies at the Bavarian State Library in Germany the University of Amsterdam the Newberry Library and the University of Chicago. PALAU 257729. Bernardino de Guzman unknown books

MAXIMILIAN I OF BAVARIA / THIRTY YEARS WAR / STENGEL Georg.ABAA

Gloria Bellica Serenissimi et Potentissimi Principis Maximilliani .

16235340Ingolstadii: Ex officina typographica G. Haenlini 1623. Hardcover. Near Fine. 4to 27 x 17.5 cm. 17 ff. 388 pp. recte 386 7 ff. with misnumbered pages at pp. 203-06 243-46 and 260-71 1 full-page engraving 20 x 15.5 the platemark. Bound in contemporary blind-stamped pigskin raised bands boards beveled somewhat scuffed clasps missing. Blue edges small hole repaired on half title and engraving ownership inscription of Andechs Abbey on title page minor browning in some quires. An excellent and unsophisticated copy. First edition of a rare volume of prose and verse glorifying the military exploits of the Prince-Elector Kurfürst of Bavaria Maximilian I 1572-1651 by members of the University of Ingolstadt as compiled by the Jesuit philosopher-theologian Georg Stengel 1584-1651. The Gloria Bellica is an important witness to the intertwining of princely power university politics and religious sectarianism at the onset of the Thirty Years War 1618-48. Published in the year of Maximilian's elevation to Prince-Elector 1623 the book seems to have been an attempt by faculty at Ingolstadt to secure his favor. The increasingly Jesuitical university would be frequently imperiled during the flux of the war and quickly identified Maximilian himself educated by Jesuits as an important military protector. Maximilian's central role in the German Catholic League had been essential in checking the power of the Protestant Union. The volume is especially notable for its full-page prefatory engraving executed by the Augsburg artist Daniel Manasser a highly detailed and elaborate allegory charting Maximilian's martial rise and the praise conferred on him from various secular and sacred sources. Merchants clerics Liberal Arts herself and a throng of lesser citizens crowd together to salute Maximilian as he rides upward on the back of Pegasus toward the Olympian gods reclining in the empyrean; the demigod Hercules mediates between heaven and earth while battling Nessus and the Lernaean Hydra. Flanking Maximilian's ascent are 8 groups from whom he receives "Gloria": his enemies his commanders and soldiers muses and scientists hometown Bavaria the Catholic League the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand I the pope and church and indeed Mary Christ and the saints. The text of the Gloria Bellica is arranged as a fuller version of this scheme with 20 chapters each detailing a source Maximilian's glory.

1626WRCAM39190Impressa en la ciudad Imperial de Augusta i.e. Trier: con facultad de la Sacra Magestad del Emperador 1626. 16pp. Small folio. Dbd. Contemporary manuscript docketing on p.16 and contemporary ink underscoring on p.7. Some loss repaired in silk from chipping at gutter and from worming in several leaves the latter affecting some text but not exceeding 1 x 1 inch in area. Closed tears in final leaf repaired with very early paper on verso. Light staining and foxing. Overall very good. The original Spanish translation of an important invective against Louis XIII during the first phase of France's involvement in the Thirty Years' War. At the time of this publication in 1626 France had actively begun to support the Protestant side in the conflict concerned with the political threat of the Hapsburg states that surrounded it on three sides in Spain and Spanish-controlled Flanders to the south and north and the Holy Roman Empire in Germany to the East. In 1624 Cardinal Richelieu was appointed to the Royal Council of Louis XIII and immediately began to institute a vigorous anti-Hapsburg policy. The following year France joined England in subsidizing the efforts of Christian IV of Denmark to defend Lower Saxony against the Holy Roman Empire beginning an involvement in the war that would eventually lead to its own military participation against its fellow Catholic powers. The present document is a long and detailed warning to Louis XIII against pursuing a course of actions that would pit France against the rest of the Catholic world. According to the document itself the text was first composed in French and subsequently translated into Latin and thence into Castilian Spanish. It immediately occasioned a number of responses and refutations and its anonymous authorship soon became the subject of a 200-year-long debate. In his exhaustive and authoritative bibliography on the Jesuits BIBLIOTHÃƒÂˆQUE DE LA COMPAGNIE DE JÃƒÂ‰SUS Augustin de Backer seems to have put the question of authorship to rest attributing it to the German Jesuit Jacob Keller. Keller 1568-1631 was a German scholar and controversialist widely regarded as a genius and best known for a counter- Calvinist tract on Tyrannicide and a celebrated defense of the Papacy in a debate with Lutheran theologian Jacob Heilbrunner. Backer lists both the French and Latin versions of the EXHORTATION. and refers to a German translation but he omits any mention of the present Spanish version. He also describes the document as having been printed in Italy which may result from confusion regarding the city name of Augusta. While Augusta Syracuse was under anti- French Spanish control in 1626 and may thus be a candidate for the printing location all other signs and context point to Trier "Augusta Treverorum" in Latin including the publisher's imprint which calls Augusta an "imperial city" and declares permission for publication from the Holy Roman Emperor. An extremely interesting and rare document anticipating the violent wars between France and the rest of Catholic Europe of the following decade and offering a view of the French-Hapsburg rivalry from the Austro- German Hapsburg perspective and translated for the Spanish Hapsburg audience. One copy is held at the Casa de la Cultura Ecuatoriana BenjamÃƒÂn CarriÃƒÂ³n in Quito; OCLC lists one additional copy at the New York Public Library.
