160033612Antwerp: By Daniel Vervliet 1600. Small 4to 21 cm; 8.25". 18 ff. 745 1 pp. 13 ff. <br><br>The second edition of the Roman Catholic new Testament in English. The translation is the work of a number of English Catholic priests but principally of Gregory Martin who fled to France in 1568 because of persecution in their native land and under the direction of Dr. later Cardinal William Allen founded the English College at Douai. The college moved for a short time to Rheims but subsequently returned as the title-page here attests.<br>Â Â Â Â The first edition of this translation was issued at Rheims in 1582 in over-sanguine hopes that its sale would be successful enough to underwrite the cost of a prompt production of the Old Testament. The two-volume O.T. did not appear however until 1609/1610.<br>Â Â Â Â The second edition of the Rheims N.T. is a revision of the first not merely a reprinting of it and contains a "Table of Heretical Corruptions" not found in the 1582 printing and a new preface. In an era of noticeable decline in the art of printing this Testament enjoys far better than average typography. <br>Â Â Â Â <br>Â Â Â Â Darlow & Moule 198; Herbert 258; STC 2989; ESTC S102510.

Folio 6 parts in 1; pp. 8 186 2; 128; collating: ¶4 A-Y4 Z6; Aa-Qq4; woodcut device on title page; bound with: Biblica Hebraica Antverpiae 1584 Hebrew-Latin Old Testament Greek-Latin Apocrypha etc. in various pagings from back of book viz.: pp. 20 183 1; 283 1; 84; 203 1; collating from the back: †4 ‡ 6 A-O6 P8; a-x6 y-z8 aa-gg6 AA-RR6; in all 551 leaves; text in double column in Hebrew Greek and Latin; early 18th century calf blindstamped panels on covers red morocco label on spine; covers with dampstains corners bumped and showing small cracks starting at the extremities of the joints occasional light minor dampstaining but in all a very good and reasonably sound copy. Terminal flyleaf with elaborately penned inscription: "Isaac Sharpe flourishes dono Patris 1719." On the rear pastedown is Sharpe's early "Coll. Mag." bookplate dated April 4 1683 - possibly the date of his matriculation at Magdalene College Cambridge. The Greek N.T. starts at the beginning of the volume and the Hebrew O.T. at the end with the Greek Apocrypha of 128 pages between them. Each Testament has its own title page and the mention of the Apocrypha on both suggests that it was intended to form an appendix to either of the Testaments if they were issued separately. See Darlow & Moule 4645 and 5106: "This forms the latter half of the complete Bible in the original languages with an interlinear Latin translation; the whole reprinted from the Antwerp polyglot"; Voet A2 p. 320. <br/><br/> Ex officina Christophori Plantini unknown books

1584V6854Antwerp 1584. 16mo 118 x 8 cm. Christophe Plantin Late 17th-century dark brown calf with gold-stamped coat of arms of Pierre-Daniel Huet on both covers and gold-tooled dubbel-lined borders on covers and spine faded red speckled edges. With woodcut printer's device on the title page the text is partially printed in Greek. 267 13 pp. The text of this Book of Psalms is printed in Greek and Latin in parallel columns and on each page the inner column contains the text in Greek while the outer column contains the same in Latin. There are separate Greek and Latin indexes at the end of the work. This copy belonged to Pierre-Daniel Huet 1630-1721 a French clergyman and scholar. According to the title page this bilingual work was published by Plantin after the example of the Complutensian Polyglot Bible 1520. Plantin also issued a 24mo edition in the same year.The present copy is bound in dark brown leather with the coat of arms of Pierre-Daniel Huet stamped in gold on the front and back covers. Huet was the Bishop of Soissons and later Avranches. He was the cofounder of the Académie de Physique in Caen and in 1674 he became a member of the Académie française. He was one of the most learned men of his age; he studied Greek and Hebrew and he claimed to have read the Hebrew text of the Bible 24 times. The present volume also contains a few marginal corrections of the Greek text in a contemporary neat hand. Huet was known for his very fine and neat handwriting. As a linguist with an interest in Greek and Hebrew it is highly probable that Huet extensively used this copy and that he himself added the annotations. Despite his knowledge of Hebrew the partly obscure Hebrew annotations on the first endleaf "this book belongs to me Cardeliac" are probably not his. Although Huet was not a member of the Jesuit order he lived his final years in a Jesuit home in Paris. After his death he bequeathed his library to the Jesuits and upon the dissolution of the order in France in 1764 king Louis XV bought Huet's books and they are now part of the colleciton of the Bibliothèque Nationale de France. The bookplate on the front pastedown was made by the Jesuits to commemorate Huet's donation of his library.Covers show signs of wear spine has been expertly restored. With an ex libris-label of Pierre-Daniel Huet on the front pastedown: "Ex libris bibliothecae quam Illustrissimus Ecclesiae Princeps. D Petrus Daniel Huetius . 1692." an inscription in brown ink in Hebrew and several inscriptions in pencil all on the first fly leaf. With crossed out inscriptions except for "164" in the bottom left corner on the verso of the third fly leaf and at the head of the title-page with some annotations in dark brown ink in Greek throughout very slight foxing throughout a small water stain in the top margin of the second half of the book without affecting the text. On pp. 29-30 a small corrosion spot on p. 30 a marginal stain and a small hole in the text in p. 87 all very slightly affecting the text. This is a well preserved copy of a bilingual book of psalms with an interesting provenance.l BMC STC Dutch p. 26; Voet 671; Olivier 1684. cf. NBG XXV col. 381-385; Voet 672; Adams B-1390 "32mo".

Pp. 233-294. <br/><br/><em>Second edition following the original of 1509 of the final two parts of Estienne's typographic masterpiece "Quincuplex Psalterium" also known as the "First book of French Protestantism". These two final parts which make up complete works in themselves consist in the "Psalterium Vetus" - the Old Latin Psalter i.e. the version used by the churches before Jerome's revisions and the "Psaltarium Conciliatum" consisting in Lefevre's own version based on the Vulgate text corrected according to the Hebrew text and using the Aristarchian signs. This spledid publication had an immense impact upon protestantism early bible-scholarship and theology in general and is famed because of its beauty elegance and typographical excellence along with its immense importance historically speaking. "Lefèvre's epoch-making work was awaited impatiently by the learned world and is the topic of many a letter among the extant humanist correspondence of the period: thus Cardinal Ximeèz the future editor of the first polyglot Bible in a letter to Charles de Bovelles praises Lefèvre's scholarship and the usefulness of his "Psalterium". This famous volume is also Henri Estienne's typographical masterpiece and is commonly singled out as one of the outstanding monuments of early 16th-century French typography." Schreiber. "Lefèvre agreed with Erasmus that theology must be based on accurate texts and translations of the Scriptures; as the title of the volume indicates Lefèvre presents five different versions of the psalms" Schreiber. As described the present copy contains the final two. The three parts that were printed before those two were all printed in three columns and consisted in the three versions of St Jerome namely the "Psalterium Romanum" Jerome's first version of the Old Latin Psalter according to the Septuagint the "Psalterium Gallicum" Jerome's second revision first adopted by the churches of Gaul and the "Psalterium Hebraicum" Jerome's translation directly from the Hebrew.

A very good copy in a well-preserved sixteenth-century binding with a notable provenance.<br /> <br /> Scarce very early collective edition of the Latin "Paraphrases" of the Pauline Epistles prepared by the celebrated humanist scholar theologian and educational writer Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam 1466-1536. Preceded by the Froben collective editions of 1520 and 1521 this first and only edition of the Pauline Epistle Paraphrases to be printed at Mainz was issued by Schöffer in two parts each with full title and separate register and pagination; our volume contains the first part only: the Epistles to the Romans; Corinthians 2; Galatians; Ephesians; Philippians; Colossians; and Thessalonians 2.<br /> <br /> "In the vast and sustained labour he devoted to the New Testament Erasmus saw the culmination of his commitment to scholarship. and nothing else he wrote not even the Moriae encomium was to have so great an influence on posterity. The first edition of the New Testament appeared in 1516 and was followed in his lifetime by four more 1518/10 1522 1527 1535 each newly revised. Each consisted of the Greek text Erasmus' translation thereof and a copious apparatus of notes Annotations published as a separate volume. Beginning in 1517 he also published a Paraphrase of all parts of the New Testament save Revelation. Written in smooth and comprehensible Latin it was usually fuller than the original text. If offered his own interpretatiton but often avoided the provocative statements found in the Annotations. From the outset the translation the Annotations and to a lesser degree the Paraphrases drew criticism originally from conservative theologians who found heresies in his humanist philology but soon also from Lutherans and Catholics who denounced him for departures from their respective doctrines" Bietenholz. The Paraphrases were composed between May 1517 and January 1524. "Erasmus began with the Pauline Epistles. The paraphrase of Romans was published in quarto by Dirk Martens in Louvain in November 1517 and reprinted by Erasmus's friend Johann Froben in January of the following year; it sold well and was soon reprinted in octavo. Corinthians was published by Martens in February 1519 and reprinted in Basel by Froben in March; Galatians appeared later that year with editions from both publishers. The remaining Epistles followed in 1520 and 1521 the last to appear being Hebrews. In the autumn of 1521 Erasmus moved from Louvain to Basel and from that time Froben published the first editions of the remaining Paraphrases" Mynors. <br /> <br /> Our edition was printed by Johann Schöffer the son of Peter Schöffer who was the principal workman of Johannes Gutenberg. Apart from those of the Pauline Epistles the only other complete Paraphrase of Erasmus to be published by Schöffer was that on the Gospel of Matthew also in 1522. He did in 1521 however issue a series of four brief excerpts from the Paraphrases in German translation which appear to highlight provocative exegesis by the great scholar of Rotterdam concerning for example the hypocracy of the Pharisees Matthew 23 or the exhortation to "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me" Matthew 11.29.<br /> <br /> Provenance and annotations: Contemporary manuscript entry at the title-page of the Benedictine monastery library at Amorbach; contemporary 50-word manuscript note in Latin at the free endleaf facing the title which discusses the present work. Early manuscript note in German at the final blank endleaf. Early leaves with light rubrication in red ink; about twenty leaves with contemporary annotations throughout. Later stamps of the Leiningen Palace Library at the bottom margin of the title and very faintly at the pigskin covers. Bookplate of United Theological Seminary Dayton Ohio noting the gift of Dr. Walter N.

Issued by the command of Frederik II this monumental Bible represents the second complete Danish Bible in folio format and is notably the first Danish folio Bible printed by a Dane. It stands as the magnum opus of Mads Vingaard and “and the most extensive work of printing undertaken in Denmark during the sixteenth century. The book is profusely illustrated with woodcuts copied from a german Bible issued by Sigmund Feyerabend in Frankfurt a. M. 1560. The original woodcuts were made by the artist and craftsman Virgil Solis. Wide woodcut borders together with pictures using themes from the Scriptures surround the title pages and the illustrations. On the reverse of the first title page many copies have pasted in a portrait of Frederich II engraved by the Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius. However this portrait may also be found on a separate leaf." Thesaurus I. A monumental production both typographically and artistically the Frederik II Bible marks the consolidation of Reformation scripture in Denmark-Norway and reflects the growing technical and artistic sophistication of the Copenhagen press. Its scale and royal patronage place it among the most important achievements of Scandinavian Renaissance book culture. Lauritz Nielsen 405. - Thesaurus I 129. - Birkelund 34. </em> hardcover

Commonly known as the 'Anti-Luther Bibel' Dietenberger's translation was the standard Catholic German translation of the Counter-Reformation and well into the 17th century. 'Johannes Dietenberger ca. 1475–1537 native of Frankfurt am Main university-trained Doctor of Theology and Dominican friar served as prior in Frankfurt and Koblenz during the 1525 Urban Revolt of the German Peasants’ War and the early Protestant Reformation respectively. Like Martin Luther Dietenberger translated the Bible into the vernacular German after consulting recently published Greek and Hebrew biblical texts; however unlike Luther he produced a translation that remained true to the Latin Vulgate and the traditional teachings of the Catholic Church. Dietenberger aimed to counter those parts of Luther’s translation which contradicted Catholic tradition and at the same time to provide a translation whose language was less coarse and offensive.'
