Rica orla miniada formando un rectángulo en colores y oro con el escudo de los Reyes Católicos repetido cuatro veces uno a cada lado de la orla. Magnífico ejemplo de la iluminación miniada medieval española reflejado en esta enorme hoja realizada para el cantoral de Isabel de Castilla y Fernando de Aragón reyes de España llamados los Reyes Católicos realizado para el convento dominicano de Santo Tomás en Avila entre los años 1482 y 1492 "uno de los libros de cantos más suntuosos y artísticos producidos en España" Bordona Iluminación española 1930 p.61. <u>Iluminación</u>: enorme orla miniada de 850 x 560mm. en oro y colores azul rojo verde rosa marrón y amarillo. Incluye cuatro escudos de los Reyes Católicos uno a cada lado de la orla y cuatro yugos con flechas a su lado; el escudo inferior que es el más grande y elaborado contiene dos ángeles a gran tamaño a cada lado del escudo. La extensa y abundante decoración incluye abundante flora y fauna monos pájaros zorros y dragones así como putti todo pintado en colores vivos y dorados. <u>Data</u>: El escudo de armas se puede fechar después del matrimonio de los reyes en 1469 y anterior a la toma de Granada de 1492. <u>Ejecución</u>: Este Gradual fue presentado a los Reyes Católicos por el convento dominicano de Santo Tomás en Avila fundado en 1478 y que aun existe. El manuscrito probablemente permaneció en Santo Tomás por más de cuatro siglos hasta que unos restos del manuscrito fueron adquiridos por Manuel Rico y Sinobias quien cortó muchas de las miniaturas y dispersó las hojas. Domínguez Bordona en su <em>Iluminación Española</em> afirma que este libro de cantos fue un regalo de los Reyes Católicos al convento dominico de Santo Tomás en Avila fundado recientemente. Los reyes realizaron diferentes contribuciones al convento como la construcción de la capilla donde los reyes enterraron a su único hijo varón el príncipe Juan. En el mismo lugar fue enterrado el Gran Inquisidor Tomás de Torquemada m. 1498 también promotor de la construcción del convento. Autoría: Bordona atribuye la autoría de las miniaturas posiblemente a Juan de Carrión pintor y miniaturista al servicio de los reyes quien trabajó activamente en Avila a partir de 1470 que obtuvo gran fama en su tiempo. En la catedrla de Avila se conservan algunos otros ejemplo de su trabajo. Documento realmente extraordinario y de gran rareza.

With a wood-engraved royal coat-of-arms on the title-page. 2 50 pp. Extremely rare first and only early edition of a decree of 15 January 1792 by King Charles IV of Spain. It establishes a college in Granada for educating American and Philippine youth of noble birth. The decree specifies a broad curriculum of political military ecclesiastical and legal subjects with the intent to educate the students for royal service. Besides these theoretical topics the students would also learn equitation horsemanship dancing fencing and other arts appropriate to their social status. The decree also describes admissions procedures guidelines for the curriculum and administration qualifications for the staff and rules of conduct extensively and precisely. Students for example are not allowed to use slaves or personal servants and twenty scholarship students are to be exempted from all fees one or two each from specified provinces in the Americas and the Philippines while other students have to pay fees on a sliding scale. The decree gives a glimpse of the regimen and habits but also the education in a royal school for noble young boys.

18505353Spain 1850. Very good. 45pp. Small quarto. Contemporary calf gilt. A few minor abrasions along spine edges and corners worn. Occasional minor dust-soiling or foxing to text. An intriguing handwritten manual on cockfighting describing different types of roosters and the rules for fighting them presumably produced in Spain in the first half of the 19th century. The subtitle of the work touts it as in English translation "a very useful work for cockfighting fans." The manuscript includes passages with headings such as "Nobleza antiguedad y utilidad del juego de Gallo" "Nobility antiquity and usefulness of the Rooster game" "De las peleas en general" "Of fights in general" "Condiciones para carear la guerra" "Conditions to face war" "Condiciones en las peleas de navaja" "Conditions in knife fights" "Observaciones acerca del acto de las peleas" "Observations about the act of fighting" "De las circumstancias del Gallero de las cosas anexas a su egercicio y de su gratificacion" "Of the circumstances of the Gallero of the things annexed to his exercise and gratification" "Sobre preparacion de los gallos para las peleas de pico" "On the preparation of roosters for beak fights" "Del modo de disponer los gallos para las peleas de navaja" "How to arrange the roosters for knife fights" as well as passages on the rules for fighting and comparing roosters by weight age and other means and more. A substantial portion of the latter part of the manual is devoted to describing about thirty different "Colores de los gallos" and color patterns which include various shades and patterns of "Indio" "Giro" "Canelo" "Blanco" "Prieto" "Pintojo" and "Tabao." The last section contains a "Regimen para curar las enformedades que mas generalmente padecen los gallos" "Regimen for curing diseases that roosters most generally suffer from".<br /> <br /> Though an undated manuscript the binding appears to emanate from the first half of the 19th century. The ownership inscription and stamp on the first flyleaf indicates the work was owned by Fermin Canella Secades of the University of Oviedo in Spain. Canella Secades lived from 1849 until 1924 so could have owned the work anywhere within those years but the manuscript was most assuredly produced earlier. Though he was a prolific author the handwriting of the ownership inscription presumably belonging to Canella Secades does not match the handwriting in the manuscript and the ownership inscription and stamp were most certainly added later. In any case the present manuscript is a fascinating collection of useful information regarding one of the more esoteric bloodsports in the world which is still legal in parts of Spain and Mexico as well as many other countries and still practiced in numerous places where it's clearly illegal. unknown
