14869BDEHOBV62VDWürzburg: Georg Reyser 1486. Later bound in two leaves from a 13th-century vellum theological manuscript rubricated and decorated with alternating red and blue initials with penwork. Folio. Printed in red and black in rotunda type 32 lines; printed area: 18 x 12 cm; type: 112a. With illustrations cut from 19th- or 20th-century reproductions of early woodcuts ca. 21 x 14 cm pasted on the front Annunciation and back pastedown Christophorus with the year "cccc xx tercio". Interesting example of the study of early printing in 19th-century England. The 12 leaves come from the library of the 19th-century collector Dr C. Inglis whose father boasted an impressive collection of early printed books. Inglis believed that the leaves came from an unknown work titled De vita et honestate clericorum ex consilio Moguntinum printed in 1453 by Gerhardus Episcopus. Tipped in is a letter to Inglis by the well-known bibliographer William Blades discussing this matter. Although the text opens with "De Vita et honestate clericorum ex consilio Maguntinensis Gerhardi Archiepiscipi" it was in fact part of Statuta synodalia herbipolensia printed at Würzburg by Georg Reyser in ca. 1486. The first 6 leaves are 2-d7 and the final 6 leaves are quire g.With owner's inscription of Sir Edward Coates bookplate with initials "CC" Clifford Coates the bookplate of Dr. C. Inglis and some annotations on front pastedown; an autograph letter signed by Wiliam Blades to C. Inglis tipped to flyleaf. 12 well-preserved leaves.l Cf.

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.

14805273Gouda: Gheraert Leeu 1480. Contemporary limp sheepskin parchment without a spine so that the sewing is completely visible. Kept in a modern brown half morocco clamshell box. 4to 20.5 x 14 cm. With 4 full-page woodcuts plus 14 repeats. The first shows King Pontianus on his throne the Queen standing next to the throne and the seven wise men standing before them with one telling a story. The last shows the same group but with the king's son Diocletianus telling his story The other two show in one case a wise man and in the other the queen telling a story to the king and are used for various stories. That with a wise man has scroll with an opening where type is set to indicate which wise man is speaking. The first illustrated edition in any language of one of the oldest and most popular texts of early European literature. It is also the first illustrated book printed by Gheraert Leeu just before his better-known Dialogus creaturarum. No copy of any edition before 1483 in any language is recorded in a Dutch library. Known in English as The seven sages of Rome it is a series of educational short stories within a "frame story" in the tradition of the Indian Panchatantra the Arabian Nights etc. and some of the stories are variations on stories told there. These stories were first published in Latin at Cologne in 1472. Leeu probably published the first edition in the Low Countries in Dutch with only a single woodcut dated 25 July 1479. That edition is known only from two incomplete copies. His present Latin edition must date between that and 3 June 1480 so it is not clear whether it preceded the unillustrated Deventer edition of 1479 or later. Our copy is preserved in its original limp parchment and only very slightly trimmed giving wide margins 1.5 4 and 5 cm. With 8 early owners' inscriptions one dated 1579 and others clearly older four small and mostly marginal worm holes running through the first leaves and the usual traces of age and handling. The parchment is stained and slightly wrinkled. Nearly untrimmed and in good condition.l Campbell 947; Goff S-448; Goudriaan Een Drukker zoekt publiek.

Eighth Edition of this important work of German Humanism. Albrecht von Eyb one of the earliest German Humanists was born in 1420 near Ansbach.
