14325Influential Congregational clergyman and author who co-edited "Christian Union" with Henry Ward Beecher and succeeded Beecher as pastor of Brooklyn's famed Plymouth Congregational Church. Exceptional content TMsS 2pp 6" X 9" Cornwall-on-Hudson NY 1881 December 7. Very good. Original typescript of Abbott's contribution to Osborn H. Oldroyd's 1882 book "The Lincoln Memorial: Album-Immortelles" a collection of reminiscences and sentiments about Lincoln by notables of the day. Abbott carefully and neatly inks in words and phrases and crosses out others signing at the close unusually small and neat knowing this would be the actual signaturee reproduced in the book and adding the date and place. A fine philosophical statement reading in part: ".It was the peculiar genius of Abraham Lincoln that he was able by his sympathetic insight to perceive the change in public sentiment without waiting for it to be formulated in any legislative action; to keep pace with it to lead and direct it to quicken laggard spirits to hold in the too ardent too impetuous and too hasty ones and thus when he signed the emancipation proclamation to make his signature not the act of an individual man the edict of a military imperator but the representative act of a great nation." Accompanying this typescript is an actual page from Oldroyd's book bearing Abbott's statement pp. 81-82 and this reproduced signature. Accompanied by a Typed Letter Signed bearing his usual charismatic ebullient signature 1p 5½" X 8½" Cornwall-on-Hudson NY 1881 December 7. Addressed to Osborn H. Oldroyd. Near fine. Transmits this manuscript although "I have no faith that anything which I can say in respect to Abraham Lincoln would be worthy a place in your collection." A most intriguing pair. unknown

Bartolomeo Platina 1421-1481 was an Italian scholar. During the pontificate of Pope Paul II 1417-1471 Platina and other humanists were dismissed from their positions in the Roman College. Platina led a protest which ended with his imprisonment and torture. He was eventually exonerated. Later Pope Sixtus IV appointed Platina to be the first prefect of the newly founded Vatican Library. Sixtus also commissioned him to write a history of the popes. According to the "Catholic Encyclopedia" Platinas "De Vitis pontificum" first printed in Venice 1479 " is a work of no small merit for it is the first systematic handbook of papal history." The book contains more than hagiographies. Platina portrays his enemy Paul II as a tyrant and he occasionally records pieces of lore which do not always place the Church in the best light i.e. a brief history of the legendary female pontiff "Pope Joan" can be found under John VIII Ioannes VIII. The Netherlands 1645 edition and the s.l. 1664 edition are both based on the original text of 1479 and on the 1529 edition. Note: another 1664 edition exists with variant pagination.
