1492D16270Venice: Hieronymus de Paganinis 1492. Hardcover. Very Good. 7 September 1492 from colophon: “Impressa vero in felici Venetorum ciuitate sumptibus et arte Hieronymi de Paganinis Brixiensis. Anno gratie millesimo quadrigentesimo nonagesimosecundo. Septimus Idus septembris.”. 8vo 170 x 120mm. 510 leaves of 552 lacking the Interpretation of Hebrew Names 41 leaves at the end and final blank. Signatures: A10 a-z8 aa-zz8 A-P8 Q12. Title printed with “Biblia” in gothic letter in upper margin above rectangular woodcut of St. Peter holding keys within double ruled border captioned “Tu es petrus” later hand coloring to halo and garb of Peter. Title verso with the “Tabula alphabetica historiarum Bibliae” compiled by Gabriele Bruno. Text printed double column index in triple column 50 lines to a full column printed in gothic type with red rubrics and headings rubricated versal initials alternating red and blue ink printed marginal citations throughout. Modern vellum yapped edges endpapers renewed; register and first few leaves of prologue little frayed to the margins some light dampstaining near end only light intermittent stains edges lightly browned annotations trimmed close in few margins and few minor marginal repairs otherwise a sound and solid incunable edition of the Biblia Latina retaining the inaugural woodcut. Scattered period Latin annotations and manicules in margins occasionally repeating a word in Scripture like “Patientia” or names of the biblical persons from text “Helias” “Jezebel” or “Joab” and names of kings and their sons are also curiously given much attention writing in more lengthy memory devices for their relationships “Roboam filius Salamonis rex in Juda” – all seemingly the work of one scholar and another cancelled early inscription on A9 perhaps the name “Carolii”. Overall studied and plenty in inscriptions some annotations in Jerome’s prologue and later books are written in red <br />ink. This is the second octavo edition of the Latin Bible printed in Venice in 1492 containing the corrections by the Franciscan scholar Pierangelo da Montolmo named in the robust colophon as “Petrus Angelus de Monte Ulmi”; supposedly a folio edition was issued this <br />same year by the same printer Girolamo de’ Paganini or “Hieronymus de Paganinis” though not found in standard references. The earliest octavo edition of the Latin Bible also known as the “poor man’s Bible” was printed in Basel by Froben in 1491. This Venetian octavo <br />edition is the first Latin Bible to include the “Tabula alphabetica historiarum Bibliae” an alphabetical table of contents compiled by the Franciscan Gabriele Bruno or Brunus in 1489. It is also the earliest printed Bible to display a woodcut on the title – printers of <br />Bibles had previously avoided title pages to best imitate manuscript sources. This 1492 edition was reprinted in 1497 and corresponded closely to the Brescian edition of 1496; the more common 1497 reprint reused the St. Peter woodcut but omitted “Biblia” on the title page. The woodcut’s caption “Tu es Petrus” You are Peter is the formula spoken at papal coronations and the words have long been associated with arguments for papal authority. Interestingly Pope Alexander VI was ordained into the papal office the month prior to this printing on 11 August 1492. Corrected editions of the Bible abounded during the Renaissance a period of intense and progressive scholarship and increasing publishing opportunities; this edition is distinctly associated with Franciscan study and use and made revolutionary efforts to organize the Bible with Bruno’s new contents list. The new “pocket-sized” Bible was an easier and more affordable format to disseminate Scripture. Travelling clergy would have especially benefitted from its portability. This copy interesting for its somewhat heavy Latin marginalia dating closely to the period of the printing; the eager reader names biblical persons of interest and contemplates their genealogical relationships throughout.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original dark brown handsome full leather bdg. with a traditional flap. Folio. (32 x 22 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). [9], 288 leaves. The size of the text block in red borders: 25 x 14.5 cm. 33 lines on each page. Printed on paper with European watermarks. Handwritten title on bottom edge. Marginal cutting on the first page. Overall a very good copy. The 20th incunable of the Islamic world, printed by Ibrahim Müteferrika's legendary Basmahane. Süleymân Izzî succeeded Mehmed Subhî Efendi (ca. 1711 - 1769) in 1745 as an official court historian (vaka'nüvis) and held this office until 1753, and is known as one of the three chroniclers for coherent historiography, representing the events in the Ottoman history from 1730 to 1744 and is a particularly valuable source on the Habsburg-Ottoman War between 1736 and 1739, as proven by his chronicle titled "Tevârîh-i Sâmî ve Sâkir ve Subhî", published in 1784. During this time, he recorded the contemporary events taking place between 1744 and 1753 in the Ottoman Empire. This work was the last item in a series of chronicles published by the printing house founded by Müteferrika. Franz Babinger writes that some parts of the book have been translated into German. Hammer translated one of the parts in question into German. All published, Izzi has planned the third part of his work, but this third part was never published. Contents: "Ahd-i Hümâyûn".; "Zikr-i iâde-i fenn-i tiba'at" [i.e. On the book pressing and publishing with a preface by Ahmed Vâsif Efendi].; "Fihrist-i Târîh-i Izzî" [i.e. Content of Izzi's history].; Izzî tarihinin birinci bölümü [i.e. The first chapter].; Izzî tarihinin ikinci bölümü [The second chapter]. The workshop of Müteferrika began its historical mission in 1728. They published 17 works in 22 volumes. The printing house served as a means to the long-term goal of Müteferrika, his efforts to broaden the horizon and modernize the knowledge of Ottoman society and Islamic civilization. This is evidenced by the subjects of the books selected for publishing, the motivations put forth in the publisher's introductions, as well as by the documents illuminating the background of the publication of each book, also published in print. In 1742, with the publication of the Persian dictionary of Hasan Suûrî, a chapter of Ottoman book printing came to an end. With the death of Müteferrika, the printing of Turkish books was temporarily interrupted. The first generation of Ottoman-Turkish prints was soon followed by a new series, when in 1756 Ahmed and Ibrâhîm Efendi (the latter perhaps the founder's son, according to speculative sources) made an attempt to resurrect the legacy of Müteferrika through the possession of a decree obtained from the Sultan. However, this experiment did not prove to be lasting, as it did not last longer than the new edition of the first Turkish printed book, the Lugat-i Vankûlî. After this for several decades there was no continuation to the Turkish book printing established by Müteferrika, until in 1783 the workshop was put in operation again for the publication of six more works. The subjects of these late 18th century works were dominated by history and military technology, thus Müteferrika's strategy of book distribution made its way hand in hand with the efforts of modernization of the Ottoman state. The second edition of Lugat-i Vankûlî followed the principles of the first edition, and its introduction was composed on the model of the introductory pages of the two last books published under Müteferrika's supervision. The works published after 1783 display a noticeable development in typography not only as to its somewhat refined visual impression, but also in its structure. For example, the d+h and r+h ligatures, characteristic of the first generation of Müteferrika's printed books, are replaced by separate letters. This extremely rare presented book is from the seven publications of this late period of the
