PLINIUS SECUNDUS, Gaius (PLINY the elder) [and Philippus BEROALDUS (editor)].Biblio.com

1483ABC_50159Venice 1483. Small folio. Reynaldus de Noviomago 17th-century blind-tooled sheepskin sewn on 3 supports with the corresponding raised bands on the spine red sprinkled edges. With the initials and book numbers alternatingly painted in red and blue. 355 ll. Beautifully rubricated 1483 edition of Plinys encyclopaedia of all knowledge in the ancient world PMM edited by the Italian humanist Philippus Beroaldus 1453-1505. Divided into 37 books the text is one of the largest works to survive from the Roman Empire encompassing botany zoology astronomy geology geography mineralogy and art. First published in Venice in 1469 by Johannes de Spira it marked the first appearance in print of any scientific text. The present work is the 11th edition overall and the first and only by Reynaldus de Noviomago dates unknown originally from Nijmegen in the Netherlands.The Historia Naturalis aims to cover the full scope of ancient knowledge drawing on the most authoritative sources available to Pliny. It remains a key reference for understanding Roman science technology and natural phenomena. The work preserves unique accounts of technical innovations such as mining techniques and the use of water mills for grinding and many of its observations have been confirmed by archaeology. Pliny also provides rare descriptions of contemporary artists making the work an invaluable source for art history. As the Dictionary of Scientific Biography notes Pliny holds a place of exceptional importance in the tradition and diffusion of Western culture.Widely read and highly influential in the 15th century Historia Naturalis saw 18 early printed editions from 1469 to 1500 all produced in Italy. Despite occasional inaccuracies or lapses in citing sources Plinys compilation of facts is unique for its breadth and ambition. By quoting numerous classical authorities and including all material uncritically he provides a comprehensive overview of ancient knowledge. Even the errors in his work offer modern scholars insight into both the understanding and misunderstanding of the natural world in antiquity.Gaius Plinius Secundus 23/24-79 CE better known as Pliny the Elder was a Roman author naturalist and natural philosopher as well as a commander in the Roman army and navy and a friend of the emperor Vespasian. Devoting much of his life to observation study and travel he produced this encyclopaedic work which became a model for all subsequent encyclopaedias in its scope meticulous referencing of sources and detailed indexing leaving a lasting legacy for the study of natural history in both the Renaissance and beyond.With a shelfmark label mounted on the front pastedown several 16th-century annotations in the text. The outer layer of the sheepskin has been rubbed off leaving the suede layer the work has been rebacked with the original spine laid down. The first and last few leaves are slightly soiled water stains in the margins of some of the leaves sometimes slightly affecting the text lacking the first blank leaf. Otherwise in good condition.l Goff P794; GW M34329; Hain-Copinger 13095; IDL 3731; ISTC ip00794000; Klebs 786.9; Oates 1783 lacks first blank; Proctor 4445; cf. DSB 11 pp. 38-40; E. Ghareeb & I.

IX and the other to aÂ complicated passage of Juvenal explainedÂ in chapter 33 of the Miscellanea of AngeÂ Politien Expositio hujus carminis JuvenalisÂ scilicet occidit miseros Crambe repetitaÂ magistros in Miscellaneis ca. 33 ThisÂ chapter of theÂ Miscellanea explains the veryÂ graphic proverb Occidit miseros CrambeÂ repetita magistros which appears inÂ Juvenalâ€™s Satire VII v. 154 which can beÂ translated literally by â€œIt is from thisÂ cabbage unceasingly re-served that unhappyÂ masters dieâ€ to denounce the repetition toÂ which masters are forced.

The book is laterÂ in the collection of Jean-Baptiste Colbert de Beaulieu 1905-1995 ex-libris. 7. It is then inÂ the collection of Jean Stefgen Joinvillele Pont 1927-2017 bookplate.Â A copy profusely annotated up to satire 6 by a German reader in the first decade of the sixteenth century asÂ indicated by the diacritical sign above the uâ€™s its spelling Yason for Jason apoptegmata without â€˜hâ€™. ThisÂ incunabulum is found in its interesting first binding Rhenish half pigskin stamped and bound over wooden boards .Our German reader most likely annotated theÂ work while it was still in quiresÂ and disbound butÂ maybeÂ sewnindeed some notes aredeepin theÂ inner margin. The work was probably annotatedÂ before being bound which caused some minimalÂ trimming of theÂ outside marginalÂ notes. The sources used by the annotatorÂ display a strongÂ knowledge in Rhenish humanism around 1511.Â This reader was obviously educated in a circle close toÂ the young Beatus Rhenanus andÂ most likely JakobÂ Wimpfeling at the crossroads of classicalÂ and Christian culture. His reading is indeed aÂ mixture of Italian philological and historicalÂ commentaries and works of northern humanismÂ Reisch Erasmus. Several notes reveal the use ofÂ a series of editions published in Strasbourg inÂ 1511: the Hymni heroici tres of Jean-FranÃ§ois PicoÂ de la Mirandole with the annotation of BeatusÂ Rhenanus the collection of ps. BÃ©rose publishedÂ by GrÃ¼ninger with a text ofÂ pseudoÂ XÃ©nophon.Â Our anonymous reader reads Erasmusâ€™ Adages inÂ an edition by SchÃ¼rer c. 1511 and the Praise ofÂ Folly the first editions of which also date fromÂ 1511 Paris Gilles de Gourmont and then M.Â SchÃ¼rer. XXI v.Â The annotator also has recourseÂ to contemporary Italian encyclopedias EnneadesÂ by Sabellico Commentarii by Volaterranus toÂ which he adds the reading of Reischâ€™s MargaritaÂ philosophica the jewel of northern humanism theÂ editio princeps dates from 1504. The annotatorÂ refers to a passage of this work Book VII chapterÂ VII where Atlas is presented as the inventor ofÂ astronomy note on f. CXIIIr: â€œAtlantemÂ caeliferum fuisse negat Lucrecius. Lege inveniesÂ in Margarita ex Plinio li 7 ca 2â€ etc. TheseÂ readings and references to the editions of 1511 make us think that the annotator plausibly followed a university course held in Strasbourg around 1511 always in theÂ close circles frequented by Beatus Rhenanus.Â The humanist commentary here focuses on word radicalsÂ lexiconand context the annotator mobilizes printedÂ commentaries with little interest in figures. He shows a predilection for natural history Pliny and Solinus veryÂ much in demand and Roman history in general the annotator resorts as well to Suetonius as to modernÂ commentaries such as Philippe BÃ©roalde and SabellicoÂ see page 58 of this catalogueÂ whose Enneads he quotesÂ several times f. XXIV v for example. This erudite reader sometimes commits approximations in his references: he confuses for example a title of theÂ pseudo-Xenophon withÂ a collection of the pseudo-Beroses. A long quotation of a passage that he attributes to PhilippoÂ Beroaldus the Elder on f. XXVIIr comes in fact from the Annotationes centum and not from his commentary onÂ Suetonius see Anthony Grafton â€œOn the Scholarship of Politianâ€ Journal of the Warburg 1977 p. 166. HeÂ recopies from memory incorrectly on f. VI a licentious epigram by Martial book VI 67 & notes in the marginÂ still on this verse but this time about eunuchs: â€œMartialis / Cur tantium eunuchos uxorÂ tua Caelia quaeris / PanniceÂ vult futui Caelia non parere.â€ The annotator also has recourse to the vast Latin poetic heritage: Ovid and Seneca on f. II Vide OvidiumÂ Transformationumâ€¦ Vide Senecam in Agammemnone; Horace Satire VI I on f. XVr. Also to some poets of lateÂ Latinity like Sidoine Apollinaire through an incunabula edition 1498 with commentary. He also gives someÂ suggestions for corrections to the text: f. LIX r to the lemma â€œcaldumâ€ he refers to the Attic Nights of Aulu Gelle:Â â€œemendatius caldus haud â€¦ quam calidum apud Gellium caldam saepeponitur li 19 ca 4â€³.SomeÂ otherÂ notes are:â€¢A reference to the practice of hunts venationes in the circus under Domitian with an anecdote of a certainÂ Maevia descended the pointrine naked in the arena f. V r. It reproduces the words of an ancient scholiastÂ of Juvenal: â€ Alia indignatio in mulierum impudentiam quae temporibus Domitiani descendebant inÂ venationes et pugnas theatrales â€ words of the scholiast of Juvenal.on the title page two references toÂ Italian miscellanea from the end of the 15th century.

AN ILLUMINATED VELLUM MANUSCRIPT LEAF FROM A DUTCH BOOK OF HOURS, WITH A VERY FINE MINIATURE OF THE HARROWING OF HELL BY THE MASBiblio.com

PROBABLY FROM THE OFFICE OF THE DEAD

1470ST17764Delft ca. 1470. Leaf: 175 x 122 mm. 6 7/8 x 4 3/4"; Frame: 250 x 195 mm. 9 3/4 x 7 3/4". No text on recto or verso. In an attractive wooden frame. A FINELY PAINTED MINIATURE OF THE HARROWING OF HELL within an arch-topped compartment the mouth of hell depicted on the left with a fiery red interior and five people emerging from it the figure of Christ on the left holding a cross on a long staff and half-clothed in a pink and blue robe the background with a castle in the distance ALL OF THIS BENEATH A VERY DETAILED ARCHITECTURAL CANOPY suspended in the sky AND THE WHOLE WITHIN A FULL BORDER of acanthus leaves and other foliage and flowers in reds blues greens yellows and brushed gold along with very many small burnished gold ivy leaves and buds on hairline stems a small stork in the bottom border and a large delicately shaded angel in the left border. ◆Left margin trimmed very close to decoration just escaping loss and the other three margins ample mild darkening right at fore and tail edge but not reaching into borders otherwise IN FINE CONDITION the colors rich and true and the burnished gold still shimmering. This extraordinary miniature notable for its uncommon subject matter memorable imagery and fine workmanship was produced by a talented artist belonging to the stylistic group known as the Masters of the Delft Half-Length Figures. The subject here is infrequently depicted in Books of Hours: the Harrowing of Hell appears as a full-page miniature in only three of the 119 prayer books described by Roger Wieck in his "Time Sanctified" and three others contain a Harrowing depiction inside an initial. Christian theological tradition tells us that after his crucifixion Christ went to liberate souls from Limbo--a location inhabited by those barred from entry into Heaven because they died before the Redemption. In our scene Christ wrapped in a regal cloak and carrying a long staff his hands and feet still bleeding from the wounds he received on the Cross reaches into an absolutely wonderful Hellmouth to extricate Adam and Eve and other naked souls while the recently deceased and original saint John the Baptist still clad in an animal skin garment waits patiently for his turn to emerge. The great maw of Hell as depicted here has bulging eyes a distended snout thickly matted hair and a bad complexion; his gaping mouth punctuated by sharp gray teeth glows red hot and one can tell from the creature's expression that he is loath to comply with this rescue of souls. In addition to its compelling subject matter there is a high level of artistic achievement here including delicately molded figures impressively detailed architectural elements and a lovely color palette. The elegance and quiet sophistication observed in this miniature distinguishes the artist responsible for this work as a particularly talented member of his circle. Active from about 1450-80 the Masters of the Delft Half-Length Figures were named by James Marrow after the angels and other figures whose upper bodies are typically found emerging from a cloud within the borders. Although the present leaf uncharacteristically contains a full-length angel in the border it shares other stylistic similarities such as the elaborate architectural canopy hovering over the main composition; and it particularly resembles the work of the artist of Keble College MS 77 an illuminator described in "The Golden Age of Dutch Manuscript Illumination" as "one of the more articulate of the group" whose "figures are more fully modelled and his palette . . . deeper and brighter" than that of his contemporaries. Because the subject of the present miniature goes beyond the standard image program seen in routine productions and because of the high level of artistic accomplishment seen here this leaf was almost certainly part of an elaborate Book of Hours produced in response to an important commission. unknown

First and last leaves reinforced probably at the time the present binding was made. 19th-century shelf marks and pencil annotations on the pastedown; old collection stamp on the title page and the date "1490" added in pencil. Occasional early marginal annotations throughout. Some light browning mostly marginal. Complete and internally sound overall a very good copy. Title page with full page woodcut illustration. Title page with full page woodcut illustration. First edition. Spine rubbed with minor wear to corners. Bound in a later half-leather binding spine with gilt fillets; buckram-covered boards. 4to. a-m8 n10 = 106 unnumbered leaves. One of only three incunable editions transmitted under the name of Bede combining a late medieval scholastic core with a humanist Ciceronian addendum. The Repertorium auctoritatum Aristotelis traditionally attributed to Bede the Venerable is an alphabetically arranged florilegium of philosophical auctoritates. It consists of brief excerpts drawn primarily from Aristotle each accompanied by a short explanatory or paraphrastic comment. Conceived as a practical tool for reference and instruction it was well suited to late medieval scholastic teaching and preaching. The attribution to Bede is made explicit on the opening page which states "a reverendissimo et venerabili Beda presbitero edita" a formulation that contributed to the work's long-standing acceptance under his authorship. The title page is illustrated with a full-page woodcut depicting a scholastic lecture scene showing a master reading at a lectern before a group of students visually underscoring the book's pedagogical function. The main scholastic compilation is followed by the appended Auctoritates Ciceronis introduced separately and preceded by a dedicatory epistle to Sebald Schreyer by Peter Danhauser and the volume concludes with a short Latin poem functioning as a conventional closing piece. The Aristotelian material is presented without distinction between authentic and spurious works a feature characteristic of medieval Aristotelian transmission. Aristotle is treated as a unified authority without philological discrimination. Alongside him the compilation draws extensively on other philosophical auctoritates notably Boethius Avicenna Averroes and Porphyry with Seneca also cited particularly in moral contexts. In later manuscript and printed traditions Senecan material becomes increasingly prominent. The present Nuremberg edition printed by Peter Wagner was prepared under the direction of Peter Danhauser of Nuremberg an editor and organizer of learned texts active in the 1490s and connected with the humanist and scholarly circles of Nuremberg and Vienna including Hartmann Schedel Conrad Celtis and Sebald Schreyer see Worstbrock. In this edition Danhauser appended the humanist Auctoritates Ciceronis to the scholastic Repertorium. This Ciceronian section is introduced by the standard preface praising Cicero as studii humanitatis maximus cultor taken verbatim from Albrecht von Eyb's Margarita poetica and is preceded by a dedicatory epistle addressed to Sebald Schreyer church administrator of St. Sebald and a prominent Nuremberg patron. In the dedication Danhauser presents the Ciceronian excerpts as a moral and pedagogical aid for students and young readers and frames the addition as a humanist offering connected to Schreyer's cultural and bibliophilic activity. The Repertorium was later reissued without the Ciceronian appendix and continued to circulate independently into the sixteenth century. Bede the Venerable ca. 673-735 an Anglo-Saxon monk of Wearmouth-Jarrow was among the most influential scholars of the early Middle Ages best known for the Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum and numerous biblical and chronological works. Modern scholarship has demonstrated that the attribution of the Repertorium to Bede is untenable: its reliance on Aristotelian texts Arabic commentators such as Avicenna and Averroes and later scholastic authorities places its composition firmly in the late Middle Ages. The work is therefore regarded as Pseudo-Bede. This book is one of only three known incunable editions transmitted under the name of Bede the Venerable. According to the Incunabula Short Title Catalogue ISTC these comprise the Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum and two editions of the Repertorium: the present first edition which includes the appended Auctoritates Ciceronis and the later Cologne edition issued by Quentell in 1495. Although the Repertorium is now recognized as a pseudo-Bedan work it nonetheless belongs to this strictly delimited incunable corpus and occupies a defined position within the earliest printed tradition of works attributed to Bede offering a clear example of late medieval scholastic compilation with a limited humanist overlay. Scarce. ISTC records 45 surviving copies of which only four are held in the United Kingdom Glasgow University Library; British Library; Wellcome Collection imperfect; Bodleian Library Oxford and three in the United States Southern Methodist University Bridwell Library; University of Rochester Rush Rhees Library; Library of Congress. With the exception of the present copy no other example appears to have been offered for sale according to Rare Book Hub RBH.
