1492D16270Venice: Hieronymus de Paganinis 1492. Hardcover. Very Good. 7 September 1492 from colophon: “Impressa vero in felici Venetorum ciuitate sumptibus et arte Hieronymi de Paganinis Brixiensis. Anno gratie millesimo quadrigentesimo nonagesimosecundo. Septimus Idus septembris.”. 8vo 170 x 120mm. 510 leaves of 552 lacking the Interpretation of Hebrew Names 41 leaves at the end and final blank. Signatures: A10 a-z8 aa-zz8 A-P8 Q12. Title printed with “Biblia” in gothic letter in upper margin above rectangular woodcut of St. Peter holding keys within double ruled border captioned “Tu es petrus” later hand coloring to halo and garb of Peter. Title verso with the “Tabula alphabetica historiarum Bibliae” compiled by Gabriele Bruno. Text printed double column index in triple column 50 lines to a full column printed in gothic type with red rubrics and headings rubricated versal initials alternating red and blue ink printed marginal citations throughout. Modern vellum yapped edges endpapers renewed; register and first few leaves of prologue little frayed to the margins some light dampstaining near end only light intermittent stains edges lightly browned annotations trimmed close in few margins and few minor marginal repairs otherwise a sound and solid incunable edition of the Biblia Latina retaining the inaugural woodcut. Scattered period Latin annotations and manicules in margins occasionally repeating a word in Scripture like “Patientia” or names of the biblical persons from text “Helias” “Jezebel” or “Joab” and names of kings and their sons are also curiously given much attention writing in more lengthy memory devices for their relationships “Roboam filius Salamonis rex in Juda” – all seemingly the work of one scholar and another cancelled early inscription on A9 perhaps the name “Carolii”. Overall studied and plenty in inscriptions some annotations in Jerome’s prologue and later books are written in red <br />ink. This is the second octavo edition of the Latin Bible printed in Venice in 1492 containing the corrections by the Franciscan scholar Pierangelo da Montolmo named in the robust colophon as “Petrus Angelus de Monte Ulmi”; supposedly a folio edition was issued this <br />same year by the same printer Girolamo de’ Paganini or “Hieronymus de Paganinis” though not found in standard references. The earliest octavo edition of the Latin Bible also known as the “poor man’s Bible” was printed in Basel by Froben in 1491. This Venetian octavo <br />edition is the first Latin Bible to include the “Tabula alphabetica historiarum Bibliae” an alphabetical table of contents compiled by the Franciscan Gabriele Bruno or Brunus in 1489. It is also the earliest printed Bible to display a woodcut on the title – printers of <br />Bibles had previously avoided title pages to best imitate manuscript sources. This 1492 edition was reprinted in 1497 and corresponded closely to the Brescian edition of 1496; the more common 1497 reprint reused the St. Peter woodcut but omitted “Biblia” on the title page. The woodcut’s caption “Tu es Petrus” You are Peter is the formula spoken at papal coronations and the words have long been associated with arguments for papal authority. Interestingly Pope Alexander VI was ordained into the papal office the month prior to this printing on 11 August 1492. Corrected editions of the Bible abounded during the Renaissance a period of intense and progressive scholarship and increasing publishing opportunities; this edition is distinctly associated with Franciscan study and use and made revolutionary efforts to organize the Bible with Bruno’s new contents list. The new “pocket-sized” Bible was an easier and more affordable format to disseminate Scripture. Travelling clergy would have especially benefitted from its portability. This copy interesting for its somewhat heavy Latin marginalia dating closely to the period of the printing; the eager reader names biblical persons of interest and contemplates their genealogical relationships throughout.
