[Einband.] Cicero, Marcus Tullius.
Orationes. Ex castigatione Ioannis Boulierii. Lyon, (Symphore Barbier für) Antoine Vincent, 1562.
2 Bde. in 1 Band. 575, (1) SS. 542, (2) SS. Mit wdh. Holzschnittdruckermarke an den Titeln. Reich blindgepr. Schweinslederband der Zeit auf 3 Bünden über Holzdeckeln mit abgeschrägten Deckelkanten. Am Vorderdeckel Plattenstempel mit Wappen des Römischen Reichs, am Hinterdeckel des Kurfürsten August von Sachsen, jeweils oben und unten begrenzt von Querriegeln mit Fleuronstempeln; die Rückenfelder dicht gefüllt mit Rankenwerksstempeln. Eine mittige Messingschließe. Vorsätze fehlen. Kl.-8vo. Schön blindgeprägter, ungewöhnlich gut erhaltener Schweinsleder-Wappenstempelband. Der Vorderdeckel zeigt zwischen Säulen "Des Heiligen Romisen Keisertums Wappen" (unten so in der Platte bezeichnet, mit Signatur "T. Kruger"); am Hinterdeckel das 12-teiige Wappen des "Augustus Churfurst" (an der Helmzierde bezeichnet "T.K."). Wohl noch früher Einband des Wittenberger Buchbinders Thomas Krüger (gest. 1591), Sohn des Buchbinders Nikolaus Krüger. "Seine ältesten datierten Stempel [...] tragen die Jahrzahl 1562" (Haebler I, 252). Krüger führte die in Wittenberg noch häufiger nachgemachte Mode ein, mehrere Platten auf jeweils einer Deckelseite anzubringen - ein Verfahren, das beim Kleinoktav-Format des vorliegenden Bandes außer Betracht blieb. - Gelenke unbedeutend berieben; altes Bibliotheksetikett und Signaturvermerke am Titel. Die originale ziselierte Schließe intakt. Insgesamt prächtig erhaltener Wittenberger Kurfürsteneinband mit sehr prägnanter Prägung, darin ein Klassiker des Humanismus in einem Lyonnaiser Druck. Zum Stempelmaterial: Haebler I, 250 V und 251, XV (= Herbst 9; Weale B 192 E). Vgl. Schweiger II, 129.

[Emrich, Franz?].
Wie man sich zu Zeiten der Pestilentz fürsehen und erhallten möeg. (Vienna, Johann Singriener d. Ä.), 1540.
4to. (36) pp. Modern marbled boards. Very rare treatise: a report from the dean and medical faculty to the magistrate of Vienna, stating that they had inspected the city's pharmacies by order of the government, since "astrology" had predicted a plague epidemic for this year. Their evaluation is followed by a discussion of the nature of the plague, its causes (including eclipses and comets), and methods to prevent and to cure the disease (cf. Denis). - Possible authors are Crato von Krafftheim (1519-85) and Franz Emrich (1496-1560). Crato had developed an "Electuarium salutis Cratonis" against the plague, a popular mixture of theriac, mithridate, terra sigillata, bolus armenus, bezoar, and other remedies. That the use of "Thyriackh" is discouraged (fol. E2v) reinforces the case for Emrich's authorship: after the university reforms of 1537 he was the standard bearer of the modern hippocratic-galenic school of medicine, which disapproved of the previously favoured Arabic authorities. Indeed, the chapter on food and drink begins with a praise of Galen. In 1554 he published, under his own name, a treatise on plague prevention entitled "Ratschlag zu Verhüetung pestilentzischer Ansuechung". - Some browning and fingerstaining; trimmed rather closely in some places. VD 16, ZV 28156. BNHCat W 177. Denis, p. 398, no. 416. Lesky 710. Not in Durling, Adams, or BM-STC German.

[Escobar, Andreas de].
Modus confitendi. O. O. u. Dr., [vor 1500].
(6) Bll., 39 Zeilen. Mit großem Titelholzschnitt. Moderner Halbpergamentband über Marmordeckeln. 4to. Bislang nicht nachgewiesene Inkunabelausgabe der klassischen katholischen Beichtanweisung. Der bemerkenswerte Titelholzschnitt zeigt eine Beichtszene, hinter dem Beichtstuhl ein Teufel, der seinen (im Spruchband gedruckten) Spruch "Cras, cras" ("morgen, morgen") einflüstert. - Diese Schrift, erstmals um 1471 erschienen, erlebte allein in der Inkunabelzeit über 100 bekannte Ausgaben; die vorliegende ist über den Gesamtkatalog der Wiegendrucke nicht ermittelbar. - Der aus Lissabon stammende Dominikaner-, dann Augustiner- und schließlich Benediktinermönch Escobar (um 1367-1430) promovierte 1393 in Wien zum Doktor der Theologie und war später Bischof von Ciudad Rodrigo (1408), Ajaccio (1422) und Titular-Erzbischof von Megara (1428). Der päpstliche "poenitentiarius minor" war einer der am häufigsten gedruckten Autoren des späten 15. Jahrhunderts. - Etwas fleckig und mit kl. Quetschfalten.

[Estienne, Henri].
Catharinae Mediceae reginae matris, vitae, actorum, & consiliorum, quibus universum regno Gallici statum turbare conata est, stupenda eaque vera enarratio. [Geneva, H. Estienne?], 1575.
8vo. 116 (but: 117), (1) SS. 19th century red morocco with richly gilt inner dentelle, leading edges gilt, marbled pastedowns. All edges gilt. Very rare first Latin edition of this controversial pamphlet, previously published in French as "Discours merveilleux de la vie, actions & deportements de la royne Catharine de Medicis" ("Paris 1563", but in fact printed in the autumn of 1574). This stinging indictment of Catherine de Medici was reprinted several times and also saw a German translation, "Öffentliches Ausschreiben der übelbefriedigten Stände in Frankreich" (i.e., "Public announcement made by the malcontent estates in France"), edited by Johann Fischart. - "The most controversial book associated with the name of Henri Estienne; this notorious biography of Catherine de Médicis, in the form of a violent Huguenot pamphlet against her, has long been attributed to Henri Estienne, although serious doubt has been cast on this attribution" (Schreiber). The anonymous author presents himself as a Catholic who insists the Huguenots should not have been butchered, but rather converted by means of theological argument. "Undoubtedly the writer is a member of the large party of malcontents, many of whom - at least after the massacre - were Catholics, who hoped that all men of national spirit from both persuasions might unite to throw off the cruel yoke of the Queen mother's rule and end the civil wars. Among the many Huguenot pamphlets of the time, this is the one to aim the sharpest arrows at the Queen mother. It contains a vitriolic account of the Queen's life, describing her family and upbringing in the most disparaging terms and revealing all the schemes, misdeeds and crimes committed since the beginning of her rule in 1560 [...] Repeatedly the author points out how she makes use of the precepts of her Florentine compatriot Macchiavelli" (A. Hauffen, Fischart-Studien, in: Euphorion 8 [1901], S. 536f.). - Light browning and very occasional light staining, sumptuously bound in the 19th century. Adams S 1754. BM-STC French, Suppl. 22. Renouard 143, 8. Schreiber 196.

[Euclid]. - Proclus Diadochus.
In primum Euclidis elementorum librum commentariorum ad universam mathematicam disciplinam principium eruditionis tradentium libri IV. Padua, Grazioso Percacino, 1560.
Folio (215 x 300 mm). (16), 272, (24) pp. With woodcut device on t. p. (Minerva and Mercury holding the wing tips of a rising phoenix), woodcut portrait on reverse, and printer's device on final leaf, as well as numerous mathematical diagrams in the text. Contemporary Italian limp vellum with ms. spine title. First Latin edition of one of the major works by Proclus Lycaeus (412-485), founder and head of the neo-Platonic school of Athens: a commentary on the first book of Euclid's "Elements of Geometry", the "oldest mathematical textbook in the world still in common use today" (PMM). Includes the text of the theorems, set within ornamental woodcut framings, and the geometrical diagrams. The editor and translator Francesco Barozzi (1537-1604) taught at the University of Padua. He was later charged with sorcery (in particular, he was said to have caused a torrential rainstorm over his native Crete) and condemned by the Inquisition in 1587. "Barocius' edition of Proclus' commentary on the first book of Euclid's 'Elements' was the first important translation of this work, for it was based on better manuscripts than previous efforts had been. The translation, published in 1560, was completed by Barocius at the age of twenty-two" (DSB). His portrait on the reverse of the title page is cut within a magnificent border. - Old ms. ownership on flyleaf obliterated (probably in the early 19th century); old ownership stamp over title woodcut erased, replaced by a different coat of arms in ink, very likely that of the Italian comital family Antico (insignificant bleeding to reverse). Occasional slight waterstaining, still an exceptionally appealing, clean copy. Edit 16, CNCE 33726. Adams P 2138. BM-STC Italian 540. Mortimer 403. Honeyman 2543. DSB I, 468. Brunet IV, 895. Riccardi I/1, 82, 1 ("Bella e rara edizione"). Cf. PMM 25.

[Gelen, Sigismund (ed.)].
Notitia utraque cum orientis tum occidentis ultra arcadii honoriique caesarum tempora illustre vetustatis monumentum [...]. Basle, Hieronymus Froben d. Ä., 1552.
Folio (ca. 220 x 337 mm). (216) pp. With 106 woodcut illustrations within the text, 85 of which full-page. Woodcut printer's devices to title-page and final page verso. - (Bound with) II: Strein von Schwarzenau, Richard. Gentium et familiarum Romanarum stemmata. [Geneva], Stephanus (Estienne), 1559. (120) pp. With woodcut title-vignette. Contemporary full vellum. First edition. - The first complete edition of this "curious book" (cf. Graesse), a "state handbook of the military and civil organisation of the late Roman Empire" (cf. Hieronymus). Compiled anonymously around 410, the classical text and illustrations were passed on in several manuscripts, first appeared in print in abridged form in 1529 and were published in the present version by the classicist Gelen (ca. 1498-1554), who worked as an editor and translator at the Froben printing office. The woodcut illustrations were created by Conrad Schnitt (1495-1541), except for pp. 6f and 23 (Imperium Orientale, Imperium Occidentale, Constantinople), which probably originate from the hand of Hans Rudolf Manuel Deutsch (1525-71). They show, inter alia, allegoric depictions of parts of the Empire, the insignia of court, civil and military authorities, as well as statues, small buildings and books. Includes the petition to the emperor on warfare ("De rebus bellicis"), the corresponding illustrations, not all of which by Schnitt, showing chariots, ships and other military equipment. The treatise on civil and military organisation by Andrea Alciato, the topographic description of classical Rome by Publius Victor and the conversation between Emperor Hadrian and the philosopher Epictetus can be found towards the end. - Bound with this is a genealogical work on the origins of Roman families by the Austrian historian Strein von Schwarzenau (1538-1600), giving a short description of each family, with a family tree. - With contemporary ownership of the library of the Piarist school in Schlackenwerth (now Ostrov) to the title-page; a previous ownership crossed out. A library shelfmark to the pastedown. A page marker to the final leaf of the "Notitia". Binding somewhat brownstained. Paper evenly browned throughout with very slight brownstaining and waterstaining to a few pages. From the library of the Viennese collector Werner Habel, with his signed and stamped ownership, dated 1978, to the pastedown. VD 16, N 1884. BM-STC German 747. Adams II, 354. Hieronymus, Oberrhein.

[Gesner (Gessner), Conrad].
Thesaurus Euonymi Philiatri, de remediis secretis. Lyon, Balthazarem Arnoulletum, 1554.
16mo (12.5 x 8 cm). [44], [4 blank], 499, [8], [5 blank] pp. With dozens of woodcut illustrations in text. Contemporary limp sheepskin parchment. Third edition in the original Latin, of the first part of Conrad Gesner's very popular book of secrets. It primarily concerns distillation and its use in making medicines, with most of the woodcuts illustrating furnaces, glassware and other equipment for distilling. It discusses the various kinds of distillation, the equipment and techniques, aqueous solutions, the making of medicines from a wide variety of plants, animals and minerals (including metal salts), extracting oils, etc. - "The work begins with a short historical introduction which says that the Greeks and Romans could not yet distil and claims that the art was invented by the Barbarians, Carthaginians and Arabs shortly after the famous Hellenistic physicians. He gives a few short notes on Arabian scientists like Mesue, Avicenna and Bulcasis, describing their methods of making rose-oil" (Forbes). - Conrad Gesner (1516-65), a Zurich scholar of remarkable breadth who wrote on bibliography, botany, zoology, medicine and pharmacology, published the first volume of his De remediis secretis in 1552 under the pseudonym Euonymus Philiatrus. It quickly went through many editions and was translated into French, German, Italian and English by 1559. A second part appeared posthumously, edited by Gesner's student Caspar Wolf (1532-1601) and Froschauer, who printed its first edition. - Binding soiled and a few stains and smudges throughout; a good copy. USTC 151668. Wellcome I, 2778. Not in Durling. Cf. Forbes, A short history of the art of distillation, pp. 120-126.

(Sankt Gallen, Leonhard Straub für Josias Geßner in Zürich), 1582(-1583).
4to. 2 pts. in 1 vol. (8), 368, (18) pp., final blank. (8), 305 (but: 307), (13) pp. Both title pages printed in red and black. With 2 different woodcut title vignettes and numerous text woodcuts. Contemp. blindstamped pigskin over wooden boards with bevelled edges. Remains of clasps. All edges red. Principal alchemical work of the Swiss physician, botanist and zoologist Gessner: the first complete German edition of the "Thesaurus de remediis secretis", translated by the Zürich theologian Johann Rudolf Landenberger and the physician Johann Jakob Nüscheler. The first part had appeared in German in 1555; only in 1569 did Caspar Wolf edit the posthumous Latin first edition of the second part, based on Gessner's notes. "This collection of recipes for medicines, the distillation of essential oils, and winemaking was first published under the pseudonym Euonymus Philiatrus because Gesner considered it not quite up to his own exact standards. It became his most popular book" (Wellisch). The woodcuts picture various destillation apparatus. - Binding rather rubbed; interior somewhat fingerstained; paper defects to the final three leaves of the index professionally restored (including portions of lost text). As always, the year of printing on the title page, stated as "1582" in Roman numerals, has been corrected to "1583" in slightly different ink. Contemp. ownership of the surgeon Christoff Zirckendorffer in red and brown ink ("A[nn]o 16[0]1 Jar") on the flyleaf. VD 16, G 1809, ZV 25033. Graesse III, 69. Wellisch A 32.18 & B2.14.

[Holbein, Hans, the Younger].
Icones historiarum Veteris Testamenti [...]. Lyon, Jean Frellon, 1547.
8vo. (104) pp. With woodcut printer's device, 94 woodcut illustrations and 4 woodcut portraits of the evangelists. Contemporary full vellum with giltstamped monogramm "JM" to front cover and handwritten spine-title. First printing of 1547, and the first edition to include the medallion portraits of the Evangelists. There were two editions of the "Icones" printed by Frellon in 1547, following the original one of 1538. The 1547 editions are often merely cited as issues, but the text was entirely reset. - An excellent woodcut book featuring 94 highly appealing illustrations, depicting scenes from the Old Testament as well as the Totentanz, likely carried out by Veit Specklin or Hans Lützelburger after drawings by Hans Holbein the Younger (ca. 1497-1543). Each woodcut is accompanied by a Latin text and a French quatrain by Gilles Corrozet (1510-68). With a Latin preface by Nicolas Bourbon (ca. 1503-50), revealing Hans Holbein's name, and a French preface by Corrozet. - Upper board slightly warped. Paper lightly foxed throughout; 2 pages rather browned. 20th century bookplate of K. D. Dahmen mounted to pastedown. A good copy of this masterpiece of early modern book illustration. Adams B 1963.

[Houtman, Cornelis de].
Wahrhaffter, klarer, eigentlicher Bericht, von der weiten, wunderbarer und nie bevor getaner Reiß oder Schiffart, biß in India [...]. Aus Niderländischer Spraach in Hochteutsch bracht, durch Conrad Lew. Cologne, Bertram Buchholz, 1598.
Folio (275 x 175 mm). 2 ff., 12 ff. Recently bound using an old musical manuscript on vellum. Extremely rare account of Cornelis de Houtman's voyage to the East Indies, undertaken in 1595-97: a pioneering enterprise that initiated Dutch presence in the East Indies and set the standard for Dutch exploration, being organized by the "Company of Distant Lands", the immediate predecessor to the more famous Dutch East India Company (VOC), established in 1602. - This anonymous, first-hand journal, originally published in Dutch as "Verhael vande Reyse de Hollandtsche schepen ghedaen naer Oost Indien" (Middelburg, Barent Langenes, 1597), was the first printed account of the voyage. Two versions of the text appeared, of which the "Verhael" was the shorter, but also the earlier (cf. Rouffaer). Two editions of the German translation, by Conrad Löw, were printed in Cologne in 1598. No priority has been established, but both are now extremely rare: four copies of the edition published by Peter Reschedt are listed in USTC, while none of this Bertram Buchholtz imprint are recorded in USTC or elsewhere. - Houtman's voyage was motivated by the precariousness of Dutch access, as a result of the Dutch Revolt, to the largely Iberian-controlled spice and bullion markets. The Dutch therefore examined the possibility of sailing directly to the East in their own ships, and Houtman was first sent to Portugal in 1592 to investigate the spice trade. He returned two years later, urging direct voyages to the East, and in 1595 led the first such venture. - Houtman's fleet crossed the Atlantic to Brazil before rounding the Cape of Good Hope on 7 February 1595, then sailing across the Indian Ocean from Madagascar to the Sunda Straits. En route they touched on Sumatra, traded for a time in Bantam, a famously wealthy spice port, and made several other stops on the north coast of Java and on Bali. On the homeward journey, the fleet sailed along the south of Java. Houtman's brother Frederick, a talented astronomer who also participated in the voyage, greatly contributed (along with the Dutch navigator Pieter Dirkszoon Keyser) to mapping the southern skies, recording a great number of new constellations. "The voyage was not a financial success, and barely recovered its expenses. The nearly empty holds held only 245 bags of pepper, 45 tons of nutmeg, 30 bales of mace, and a selection of Chinese porcelain. The backers were aghast at the terrible loss of life [only 87 out of 249 men returned, and those who survived were too weakened even to bring their ships into anchorage]. But the voyage was, in another sense, a resounding success in that it showed to the Dutch that they might successfully reach the Indies. In the following year no fewer than 22 ships distributed over six expeditions ventured out, and the rush to the East had begun" (F. Swart, "Lambert Biesman (1573-1601) of the Company of Trader-Adventurers, the Dutch Route to the East Indies, and Olivier van Noort's Circumnavigation of the Globe", Journal of the Hakluyt Society, Dec. 2007). The Compagnie van Verre, which Houtman helped create, merged to form the Dutch East India Company. Houtman's voyage is now known for providing the initial impetus for the Dutch spice trade and colonization of Indonesia. - Lach notes that "firsthand reports of insular Southeast Asia arrived in the Netherlands with Cornelis de Houtman's fleet in August 1597. An anonymous 'Verhael vande reyse' was published [...] in 1597; it went through six editions in that year and the next, including translations into French, German, English and Latin". The published journals of the voyage "provided European readers with the most detailed descriptions of Java to date and with the first continuous description of Bali in any language. By sailing around Java, De Houtman's men were able to ascertain its true size and shape. They discovered that it was not nearly as wide from north to south as it appeared on Portuguese maps, and this was reported in the 'Verhael vande reyse'. This work also contains a detailed description of Bantam, its harbor, fortifications, buildings, people, and trade, the prices of products, and the foreigners who traded there" (Lach). The author of this account is an unidentified shipmate of Houtman's who describes in his own words what was the first incursion into the spice trade by the Dutch. - "The failure of the Barents expedition to open up a route to the East by way of the North East Passage led the Dutch to attempt reaching the East by way of the Cape Route. The Expedition consisting of 4 ships under the command of Cornelis Houtman arrived at Bantam in Java in 1596, where they tried to get a cargo of spices. But hostilities with the Portuguese arose and the fleet was compelled to sail on. The circumnavigation of Java was the first recorded attempt of this kind by any European vessel. Much knowledge of the regions later to become the exclusive territory of the Dutch resulted from the voyage" (Cox I, 262). - Rare institutionally, no copy of this edition is listed in any institution. Of the Reschedt edition, there are four copies, according to USTC (Staatsbibliothek Berlin; BSB Munich; Austrian National Library; New York Public Library). - A tall copy with light toning. In excellent condition. Tiele 122. G. P. Rouffaer, ed., De eerste schipvaart der Nederlanders naar Oost-Indië onder Cornelis de Houtman ('s-Gravenhage, 1915-29) II, pp. [xix-xx], 106-109. D. F.

[Hulsbusch, Joannes].
Sylva sermonum iucundissimorum, in qua novae historiae, & exempla varia, facetiis undique referta, continentur. Omnibus itinerantibus & comessantibus cùm gratissima, tum lectu lepidissima: quorum seriem statim post prefationem ordine alphabetico, invenies. Basel, Samuel Apiarius, 1568.
8vo. (16), 302 pp. With woodcut printer's device on t. p. 18th-c. marbled calf with label to richly gilt spine. Edges gilt. First and only edition of Hulsbusch's collection of ribald tales. Contains, among other anecdotes, ten stories from Martinus Montanus's "Wegkürzer" and 43 items from Jakob Frey's "Gartengesellschaft", translated into Latin. Among those written by himself is the story of a girl who showed herself naked at her window during a pageant in Augsburg. - The present copy is that of the Méon library described by Brunet: it was auctioned in 1803 at the Meón sale (no. 2446) and was regarded as rare even then. The front flyleaf bears Méon's purchasing memo: he had bought the book for 37 francs at the sale of the library of the great German scientist Johann Heinrich Lambert in 1780. At the Méon sale, it was knocked down to the French veterinarian Jean Baptiste Huzard (1755-1838), whose library stamp is on the reverse of the title page. In the 20th century, the book belonged to the French writer and collector of erotic literature Pierre Lous, whose pencil note is on the front flyleaf. Cf. Brunet III, 1639 (Méon cat.) and auctions catalog of the collection of Pierre Louys, vol. III, 1927, no. 3003. - Title page remargined (no loss to text); somewhat browned throughout. - Very rare; no copy at German auctions since 1950; only 3 copies established in USA via OCLC (Stanford; Univ. of Illinois; Univ. of Maryland). VD 16, H 5864. Adams H 1149. Not in BM-STC German. Goedeke II, 129. Killy VIII, 275. Brunet V, 608. Graesse VI, 537.

[Ibn Sina (Avicenna)]. Arcolani, Giovanni.
De febribus [...] in Avic[ennae] quarti canonis fen primam. Dilucida atque optima expositio [...]. Venice, heirs of Lucantonio Giunta, 1560.
Folio (240 x 354 mm). (18), 191 ff. (without final blank). Printer's device on title page and, in a different version, on the last page. Contemporary cardboard binding with marbled spine and ms. label. Stored in custom-made cloth-and-paper slipcase. First issue under this title, previously released as "Expositio in primam fen quarti canonis Avicennae" (1506). A commentary (with the text, in the version of Gerardus Cremonensis) of book four, part (fen) one of Avicenna's systematic "Canon of Medicine", written in Arabic but widely translated throughout the Middle Ages and the basis of medical training in the West as late as the mid-17th century. It continues in use to this day in parts of the Arab world. Through this encyclopedic work, the author exerted "perhaps a wider influence in the eastern and western hemispheres than any other Islamic thinker" (PMM). "The 'Qanun' [...] contains some of the most illuminating thoughts pertaining to distinction of mediastinitis from pleurisy; contagious nature of phthisis; distribution of diseases by water and soil; careful description of skin troubles; of sexual diseases and perversions; of nervous ailments" (Sarton, Introduction to the History of Science). The present part is dedicated to a discussion of feverish illnesses. - 18th century ownership "Manhem" on title page. Some brownstaining throughout, as common; some waterstains near end; occasional inkstains and marginal annotations. An untrimmed, comparatively wide-margined copy. Edit 16, CNCE 2345. Adams A 1541. Durling 245. Cf. Wellcome I, 387 (only the Venice reprint). PMM 11.
