Rheims: Printed.by John Fogny 1582. First edition of the Roman Catholic version of the New Testament in English. Small quarto 8 5/16 x 6 inches; 210 x 154 mm. 28 745 27 pp. Title within border of type ornaments decorative and historiated woodcut initials. Bound in 19th-century brown calf.

Four previous owner's bookplates on front pastedown. Front free endpaper with old ink notations quotation from Saint Augustine and small purple library stamp from the "Society of Jesus" in Milltown Park Ireland. The "Society of Jesus" is the Catholic group of which its members are the Jesuits. Title-page with cropped early annotation at top margin and same small "Society of Jesus" library stamp to lower corner. Some dampstaining and toning particularly to beginning. Some slight worming to fore-edge margin occasionally barely affecting text. Overall an excellent copy of the Rheims Bible. ìThe long title of The New Testament indicates at least in part the purpose which motivated William Allen and his small band of associates in the seminary of English Catholic refugees at Rheims. It was a losing battle for English Catholics merely to condemn the errors they claimed existed in other translations while declining to exhibit a translation which reflected their own critical principles.If the slow erosion of the Catholic faith in England was to be checked loyal Catholics would better withstand the taunts of Protestant Bible readers with the comfort and consolation drawn from a version of their own. As the title announces the translation was faithful to the Latin Vulgate but it also acknowledges careful comparison with the Greek. What the title does not specifically advertise is that Gregory Martin the chief translator borrowed freely from existing English versions. Close textual analysis has revealed many striking resemblances between the Rheims New Testament and CoverdaleÃs diglot of 1538. One new principle.was followed consistentlyótechnical words were transliterated in the text rather than translated the notes providing a clarification. Many of these words subsequently passed into the English language largely through the continuation of this practice by the revisers of the Authorized Version of 1611 who not only used these technical terms but also borrowed from Rheims many of its most felicitous and distinctive phrasesî In Remembrance of Creation 206. ìGregory Martin had originally translated the whole Bible into English but lack of funds permitted publication only of the New Testament in 1582. The long delay of twenty-seven years in completing the publication is underscored in the Preface of the Old Testament by reference to ëour poor estate in banishmentà In Remembrance of Creation 208. The annotations in the Old Testament are ascribed to Thomas Worthington who became President of the College at Douay in 1599. The ìApprobatioî is signed by three Professors at Douai.

Terminal flyleaf with elaborately penned inscription: "Isaac Sharpe flourishes dono Patris 1719." On the rear pastedown is Sharpe's early "Coll.

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
18391463Novo York 1839. Good plus. Original mottled calf spine gilt ruled leather label. Boards scuffed calf somewhat worn at edges and along spine. Pastedowns detaching from boards. A scarce Portuguese New York imprint comprising the Catholic New Testament. The translator Antonio Pereira de Figueiredo was a Portuguese monk who completed his vernacular Bible over the course of eighteen years during the late-18th century. His New Testament was originally published in parts from 1778 to 1781. The publication of this edition in New York by the American Bible Society perhaps correlates to the growth of Portuguese immigration to the Northeast associated with the rise of the American whaling industry during this period. books
