Gute, stabile Exemplare / 4 BÄNDE; Einbände mit leichten Lagerspuren und stw. gering fleckig. - Italienisch und Deutsch / die deutsche Übersetzung in Frakturschrift. - Torquato Tasso (* 11. März 1544 in Sorrent; † 25. April 1595 in Rom) war ein italienischer Dichter des 16. Jahrhunderts, der Zeit der Gegenreformation. Am bekanntesten wurde er durch das Epos La Gerusalemme liberata (Das befreite Jerusalem, ins Deutsche auch als Gottfried von Bulljon übersetzt), in dem er ein fiktives Gefecht zwischen Christen und Muslimen am Ende des Ersten Kreuzzuges während der Belagerung von Jerusalem beschreibt ... Im Jahr 1560 begann Torquato Tasso in Padua mit dem Studium der Rechtswissenschaften, besuchte aber im Jahr darauf nur noch Vorlesungen in Philosophie und Sprachfertigkeit bei Francesco Piccolomini (1520-1604) und Carlo Sigonio. In jenen Jahren gehörte Tasso auch einem privaten Kreis von Gelehrten rund um Sperone Speroni an. In dieser Umgebung arbeitete er intensiv an der Fertigstellung des Rinaldo. Das erzählende Gedicht wurde im Sommer 1562 mit einer Widmung an Luigi d'Este, den damaligen Dienstherrn von Bernardo Tasso, veröffentlicht. … (wiki) // Das befreite Jerusalem (ital.: La Gerusalemme liberata) ist ein Epos von Torquato Tasso. Tasso arbeitete über 15 Jahre an seinem Hauptwerk, das er im April 1574 vollendete. … Das Werk beschreibt die anfängliche Uneinigkeit und die Rückschläge der Christen bei der Eroberung Jerusalems und ihren schließlichen Erfolg. Am Anfang des Werkes klagt sich Sofronia, eine christliche Jungfrau aus Jerusalem, selbst eines Verbrechens vor dem moslemischen Herrscher Jerusalems an, um dadurch ein allgemeines Massaker an der christlichen Minderheit in Jerusalem zu verhindern. Ihr Geliebter Olindo versucht sie zu retten, und bezichtigt sich daher ebenfalls eines Verbrechens vor dem islamischen Herrscher. Clorinda, eine jungfräuliche Kriegerin, schließt sich in Jerusalem den Moslems an. Der christliche König Tankred verliebt sich in sie. Während einer nächtlichen Schlacht, in der Clorinda einen christlichen Belagerungsturm in Brand setzt, wird sie versehentlich von Tankred getötet. Bevor sie stirbt, konvertiert sie zum Christentum und wird von Tankred getauft. (Der Charakter der Clorinda ist durch Vergils Figur Camilla und durch Ariosts Bradamante aus Orlando furioso inspiriert.) Die Umstände von Clorindas Geburt, die als Albina von äthiopischen Eltern geboren wurde, sind Motiven aus dem Roman Aithiopika von Heliodorus von Emesa nachgebildet. Erminia (in deutschen Übersetzungen oft "Hermine"), eine Jungfrau aus Antiochia, verliebt sich in Tankred und fleht die Bevölkerung Jerusalems an, ihm zu helfen. Doch als sie feststellt, dass Tankred Clorinda liebt, wird sie eifersüchtig. Eines Nachts stiehlt sie die Rüstung von Clorinda und verlässt Jerusalem, um Tankred zu suchen. Aber sie wird von christlichen Soldaten, die sie mit Clorinda verwechseln, angegriffen, und so flieht sie in einen nahegelegenen Wald. Dort wird sie von einer Schafhirtenfamilie umsorgt. Im weiteren Verlauf des Werkes tritt sie in Begleitung von Anhängerinnen der Zauberin Armida auf, schließlich aber verlässt sie die moslemische Bevölkerung und wechselt zur christlichen Seite. Als Tankred im Kampf schwer verwundet wird, heilt sie ihn. … (wiki)

Quaresmio was a writer and Orientalist of the seventeenth century. His father was the noble Alberto Quaresmi and his mother Laura Papa. At an early age, he was enrolled among the Franciscan Observantines at Mantua. For many years he held the chairs of philosophy, theology, and canon law, and became successively guardian, custos, and minister of his province. His long apostolate in the East and the magnificent works he has left us have secured Quaresmius worldwide fame, especially among earlier historians, Biblical scholars, and Orientalists. On 3 March 1616, he went to Jerusalem, where he became Guardian and Vice-Commissary Apostolic of Aleppo in Syria (1616-8), and Superior and Commissary Apostolic of the East (1618-9). During this period he was twice imprisoned by the Turks. In 1620 he returned to Europe, but in 1625 was back in Jerusalem, whence the following year he addressed from the Holy Sepulchre an appeal to Philip IV of Spain, inviting him to reconquer the Holy Land, and at the same time dedicating to him his work, "Hierosolymæ afflictæ". Between 1616 and 1626 he wrote his classical work, "Elucidatio terræ Sanctæ", adjudged by the learned a monumental contribution to history, geography, archæology, Biblical and moral science. During 1627-9 he was at Aleppo as papal commissary and as vicar-patriarch for the Chaldeans and Maronites of Syria and Mesopotamia. In 1629 he went to Italy to render an account to the Holy See of the state of the Eastern Churches; he then returned to the East, but how long he remained is not known. Meanwhile, he journeyed through Egypt and Sinai, the Holy Land, Syria, Mesopotamia, Cyprus, Rodi, Constantinople, and a large part of Asia Minor; he also visited Germany, France, Belgium, and Holland. In 1637 he was a guardian of S. Angelo (Milan), wherein 1643 he completed his other great work on the Passion of Christ. Original 1/3 black leather bdg. Six raised bands to spine. Marbled endpapers.

Gutes Ex.; der illustr. Einband stw. minimalst berieben. - Englisch. - Elie Wiesel (geboren am 30. September 1928 in Sighetu Marmatiei, Königreich Rumänien; gestorben am 2. Juli 2016 in New York City, Vereinigte Staaten) war ein rumänisch-US-amerikanischer Schriftsteller, Hochschullehrer und Publizist. Als Überlebender des Holocausts verfasste er zahlreiche Romane und sonstige Publikationen zu diesem Thema und erhielt 1986 den Friedensnobelpreis für seine Vorbildfunktion im Kampf gegen Gewalt, Unterdrückung und Rassismus. ... (wiki) / When the Six-Day War began, Elie Wiesel rushed to Israel. "I went to Jerusalem because I had to go somewhere, I had to leave the present and bring it back to the past. You see, the man who came to Jerusalem then came as a beggar, a madman, not believing his eyes and ears, and above all, his memory." This haunting novel takes place in the days following the Six-Day War. A Holocaust survivor visits the newly reunited city of Jerusalem. At the Western Wall he encounters the beggars and madmen who congregate there every evening, and who force him to confront the ghosts of his past and his ties to the present. Weaving together myth and mystery, parable and paradox, Wiesel bids the reader to join him on a spiritual journey back and forth in time, always returning to Jerusalem. (Verlagstext) ISBN 0805210520
