1571D10980Basel: Eusebius Episcopius & heirs of his brother Nicolaus 1571. Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo 165 x 104mm. 36 621 63 pages including final leaf with printers device of the word EPISCOP. Episcopus separated by stork surmounting bishops crozier on verso. Edited by Desiderius Erasmus; revised by Johann Jacob Grynaeus. Contemporary calf over wooden boards with blind-stamped arabesque centerpiece on covers brass catches lacking clasps rebacked spine gilt labeled IRENAEI HAERESES 1571; front joint cracked but cords intact; dark stain on opening leaves paper cracks and small holes in title not affecting text some light dampstaining in hinge toward end. 17th-century signature of Robert Baillie to title the famous Covenanter according to pencil note on front endpaper. 19th-century Chiesa Libera stamp on title; and pictorial bookplate of Douglas and Mildred Horton dated 1962 to front pastedown. Reverend Dr. Douglas Horton married Mildred née McAfee in 1945 who was a prominent female captain in the United States Naval Reserve and later the president of Wellesley College. <br/><br/>Irenaeus theological treatise written c. 180 attacked contemporary Christian heresies particularly Gnosticism and the system devised by Valentinus c. 100-c. 160. Irenaeus treatise also supported the idea that bishops maintained apostolic ties to the era of Christ and that a bishop was the best guide to understanding scripture. Given the very bishop-centric message of this work perhaps it is not curious at all that the Episcopius press expressed interest in printing it In Latin Episcopus is bishop. It was not until the 16th century that Irenaeus Opus eruditissimum was widely disseminated first published in Latin by Froben of Basel in 1526 and in the original Greek in 1570. Erasmus famously edited this Latin edition which appeared a year after the first Greek. In it he removed two annotations which referred to baptism and purgatory and also corrected a passage concerning the fault of Adam. The text itself is a new translation of the first book with an extensive dedication to the Basel Mayor Bernhard Brand and the founder of the Basel Reformed Orthodoxy Church Johann Jacob Grynaeus. Irenaeus Opus appears in 10 editions before this one published in both Basel 1528 1534 1548 1554 1560 and Paris 1541 1545 1563 1567 1570. This volume once belonged to Robert Baillie 1602-1662 a Glaswegian and Presbyterian minister and writer known for his Letters which faithfully recorded public events and his participation via correspondence. Baillie was a leader in the 17th century movement that rejected the Church of Englands Book of Common Prayer. From a reformative point of view Baillie would have found interest in Irenaeus work which recognized the canonical character of the gospels. For a work against the Gnostics it is said to contain valuable historical information and a great many New Testament quotations which are a witness to the New Testament text long prior to any extant manuscript; it is the first systematic exposition of Christian theology--Sarton I 294.
