Her feet rest on the globe; the garland of fruit which surrounds her shows a ribbon with the text in Greek: 'Al�theia Pandamat�r' Allmighty Truth. Woodcut initials. Text printed in 2 columns Greek parallel to Latin. At the end have been added 52 pages with 'castigationes et notae' by Arcerius to the 'Life of Pythagoras' and the 'Protrepticae Orationes' Condition: Boards slightly scratched endpapers renewed. Some small old ink annotations. Paper yellowing Note: This is the 'editio princeps' of the first and second book of a 10 volume encyclopedia on Pythagorism written by the late antique neoplatonist philosopher Iamblichus ca. 240 - 325 AD i.e. the 'Biography of Pythagoras' and the 'Introduction to philosophy' logos protreptikos epi philosophian. 4 of the 10 books survived the rest is lost. Added are also the 'editiones principes' of 6 letters now considered to be apocryphical Pythagorean letters of the women philosophers Theano 3 Mya 1 Melissa 1 and also 1 of Pythagoras himself. This 'editio princeps' was produced by the Frisian scholar Johannes Arcerius son of Theodoretus 1538-1604. He was educated on the Schola Latina of Saint Martin at Groningen under Regnerus Praedinius. He became the tutor of the sons of a rich Frisian family and made with them in 1565 an educational tour through France and there in Besan�on he stumbled in the library of the cardinal Antoine Perrenot de Granvelle p. a1 recto 'mirabili quodam casu seu Dei destinatione' upon a Greek manuscript of Iamblichus p. 2 recto. He immediately saw its uniqueness and importance and copied it with his own hand. Arcerius studied Latin and Greek and theology and was appointed Rector of the Hieronymus Gymnasium at Utrecht in 1586. 3 years later he was promoted to a professorship on the recently founded 1585 University at Franeker where he was asked to give Greek a boost and to put Franeker on the map. There he had in his first year 8 students 4 of whom moved with him from Utrecht among who Johannes Isaacus Pontanus. All living in the house of Arcerius they formed a tight and talented community. Four of them became professor and the others high state officials. Arcerius also gave his university its first Greek achievement the 'editio princeps' of a biography the father of philosophy Pythagoras by an important Greek author Iamblichus. On Arcerius: 'Universiteit te Franeker 1585-1811' Leeuwarden 1985 p. 452--457 & NNBW 4 58/59 The imprint on the titlepage of this book doesnot mention its place of publishing. In the colophon at the end we find that it was printed on the presses of the Franeker printer Aegidius Radaeus or Gilles van de Rade. Most libraries mention as place of publishing Heidelberg some Franeker sometimes both places are mentioned together sometimes none at all or even Amsterdam. A publisher residing in Heidelberg and a printer working in Frisian Franeker even for those cosmopolitan days such teamwork seems far-fetched. The place of business of the famous scholarly printer Hieronymus Commelinus was of course Heidelberg but in 1597 a year before the printing of this book 1598 Hieronymus had died. From 1587 onward he had made his Heidelberg based firm famous with the production of 140 titles of great scholars like Casaubon Scaliger Gruter and Sylburg with the good use of the manuscripts of the local 'Bibliotheca Palatina'. His wife continued the firm after his death. Hieronymus' cousin Jean Commelin Johannes Commelinus also a publisher and an Amsterdam patrician was asked to help in the settling of his uncle's inheritance and to look after the firms interests. Until 1604 a great number of scholarly works left the presses at Heidelberg. Then it was discontinued and Hieronymus huge library was auctioned in the Netherlands in 1607/08. If Johannes Commelinus decided to transfer the project of printing this Iamblichus edition to Franeker the place of residence of its editor to make things easier and/or cut expenses he made a doubtful decision. For this edition obviously did not meet the standards of the great Heidelberg firm. For Hieronymus Commelinus see NDB 3333; for Jean Commelin NNBW 10199/200 We read about complaints about the quality of the text and the Latin translation and the many errors of the printer. In his 'Benevolo candidoque Lectore' p. a1 & a2 Arcerius keeps excusing himself for the mistakes he might have made for he says he was completely destitute of help and resources. He keeps asking for understanding and consideration concerning this difficult project. Someone has to be the first and do this extremely difficult and unrewarding work he argues. He thanks the Dutch scholar Theodorus Canterus or Dirk Canter for his help and for having sent him transcripts from the 'Bibliotheca Vaticana' 'ut opinor' he adds cautiously. More than a century later Ludolph K�ster the editor of a much revised and far better edition of the Iamblichus' 'Life of Pythagoras' pronounced this very harsh judgement on Arcerius and his edition. It is he says: 'partim injuria temporis partim librariorum neglentia & imperitia adeo corruptum & deformatum ut nesciam an a renatis litteris ullus scriptorum mendis scatens in lucem unquam exierit.' De Vita Pythagorica liber edited by L. K�ster Amsterdam 1707 p. 4 recto. The Amsterdam branch of the family continued the 'Commelianum Bibliopolum' from 1597 the year that Hieronymus died till 1624. Gruys/De Wolf Typography & Bibliopolae Neerlandici usque ad annum 1700 Thesaurus p. 24. VD17 Verzeichnis der im deutschen Sprachraum erschienenen Drucke des 17.

Limp vellum 21 cm Ref: Edit16 CNCE 52030; Hoffmann 2389; Ebert 10709: Brunet 3394; Graesse 3447; Caillet 5490: '�dition la plus estim�e donnant de pr�cieux documents sur l'herm�tisme et le magisme qui florissaient chez les grands peuples de l'antiquit�' Details: Latin translation only. Two title pages: a woodcut floral ornament central on the first title. Woodcut printer's mark on the second title it depicts a coiling snake keeping together the branch of a palmtree and an olivetree; beneath the snake 2 little snakes are creeping out of the soil above this scene flies a pigeon that holds a jewelled ring in its claws. Motto: 'fortes fortuna adiuvat'. Woodcut initials. � Of the first titlepage there are at least 3 variants. Edit 16 knows only 2. Our copy 1 has only a floral ornament on it and the impressum 'Apud Antonium Bladum Pontifis Maximi excusorem'. The Biblioth�que National has a copy 2 which has besides the floral ornament on both sides of it the coat of arms of the Vatican and also a longer impressum to which has been added 'Sumptibus D. Vincentij Luchrini. Cum privilegio Summi Pontifici Adcenium'. It seems that most copies 3 have the ornament the coat of arms and a now corrected addition 'Sumptibus D. Vincentij Luchrini. Cum privilegio Summi Pontifici Ad decennium' Condition: Vellum age-toned and somewhat warped. Binding worn at the extremes small damages to the back skilfully repaired. Foot of the spine chafed. Both ties gone. Paper slightly yellowing. Some innocent foxing Note: The first and greatest part of this book 148 p. commonly called 'De mysteriis Aegyptiorum' is a curious guide to the superstions of the late antique world. It is attributed by the best manuscript to the Greek neoplatonist philosopher Iamblichus ca. 240 - 325 AD. He was a pupil of the Greek philosopher Plotinus whose teachings he however corrupted 'by introducing theosophical fantasies from alien sources; and his tendency is to substitute magic for mysticism 'theourgia' for the Plotinian 'the�ria''. OCD 2nd ed. p. 538 Iamblichus' greatest merit is his contribution to the further development of the Plotinian system. He also wrote a work of 10 books on Pythagorism of which 4 books have survived. His most original work goes with 3 different titles; it is commonly called 'De mysteriis Aegyptiorum' or 'Theourgia'. Its original title seems to have been longer 'The reply of Master Abamon to the Letter of Porphyrius to Anebo and the Solutions to the Questions it contains'. Porphyrius and Iamblichus his pupil disagreed over the practice of 'theourgia' and 'De Mysteriis' consists mainly of Iamblichus' vicious and hostile response to the criticism of his teacher in his letter to Anebo. Porphyrius learned that man can only come to God by contemplation and philosophy. Iamblichus turned to popular pagan religion ritual and magic. 'Written under the guise of the Egyptian prophet 'Abamon' as a reply to Porphyry's 'letter to Anebo' the original title places the work firmly within the philosophical genre of 'Problems and Solutions'; cast in an epistolary form it is essentially a series of replies to a set of problems aporiai proposed by Porphyry about the nature of the gods and the proper modes of worshipping them'. C. Addey 'The prophet Abamon and the dialogues of Hermes: Iamblichus� De Mysteriis Porphyry�s letter to Anebo and the Hermetica' 2011. Iamblichus taught that Greek philosophers like Pythagoras and Plato first learnt their wisdom from the Egyptians. His theourgia which took the place of the platonic methaphysics an cosmology sought its inspiration in Greek and Roman religion. Lustrations rituals initiations and magic rites with their invocations of the gods by their secret names and their magical manipulations of plants and stones became important. � The 'De Mysteriis Aegyptiorum' was only partly known before this complete translation of 1556. The 'editio princeps' of the Greek text dates from 1678 The text was translated by the bishop/scholar Niccolo Scutelli da Trento or Nicolaus Scutellius Tridentinus 1490-1542. Not much is known about him. He taught Greek was also versed in Latin and Hebrew wrote a treatise 'Plethon in Aristotelem' and translated a number of other works by Plethon as well as some works of the Neoplatonist Proclus. The translation is preceded by 2 dedications/ introductions. The first dated 1556 is written by the editor Scipione Bongallo or Scipio Bongallus since 1539 bishop of Civita Castellana. The second introduction is by the translator Niccolo Scutelli. Bongallus tells in the first introduction that he edited and published this work of bishop Scutellius posthumously. Scutellius he says disposed of a far better manuscript than his predecessors who offered only bits and pieces. The publishing of Scutelli's translation is a testimonium of his friendship with Scutellius. He commemorates that he was in the best years of his life a pupil of Scutellius who taught him Greek in Rome. idque mihi annis vitae melioribus cum me Roma Graeca elementa doceret commemorabat 3 recto He also praises cardinal Christophorus Madrutius for having given him the manuscript of the translation which had come into the cardinal's possession after the death of Scutellius. He dedicates this precious attractive and useful work to him. From the second dedication/introduction dated 1538 we gather that the manuscript was probably donated by Scutellius to cardinal Christophorus Madrutius for Scutellius dedicated it to him. He calls Madrutius 'Pater optime' and offers him gladly the first complete translation of 'De mysteriis' of Iamblichus a work which was known untill then only in pieces conscissus 3 verso and which took him many years to finish. In a short 'Pio Lectori' placed after the second introduction Bongallus tells the reader that he added after the 'De Mysteriis' for the recreation of the reader who is tired of this difficult text some lighter works of Scutellius. The recreational works are a biography of Pythagoras and a study of his sect compiled by Scutellius from the works of Iamblichus. Then follow 9 pages with the translation of 30 Symbola sayings of Pythagoras accompanied by elaborate commentary. It ends with a section 'Mathemata' which is on Pythagorean mathematics and the use of mathematics Collation: 4 26 A-T4 minus leaf T3 & T4; AA-KK4 leaf KK4 blank Photographs on request hardcover‎

Nunc primum editus in Latinum sermonem conversus notis perpetuis illustratus a Samuele Tennulio' Arnhem 1668. These leaves contain a short chapter called 'Descriptum ex duobus Regiis codicibus fragmentum Iamblichi De fato opera & versione Samuelis Tennulii'. This fragmentum is in fact a fragment of 'De Mysteriis' Condition: Vellum somewhat soiled. 3 small ink stains on the front pastedown. Front flyleaf inscribed with inscriptions from Roman Xanthen. 2 ownership entries on the flyleaf. 1 gathering of the preliminary leaves waterstained Note: The life of the Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras born ca. 570 B.C. on the island of Samos is enshrouded in legend. 'He wrote probably nothing though works were later fathered on him and already in Aristotle's day his life was obscured by legend'. OCD 2nd ed. 903 We know of him through Iamblichus Porphyrius Diogenes Laertius Plato Plutarch and others. He is said to have taught that the soul is a fallen divinity 'confined within the body as a tomb and condemned to a cycle of reincarnation as man animal or plant from which however it may win release by cultivation of an Apolline purity'. OCD 2nd ed. p. 904 He is the founder of a sect the followers of which obeyed to strict ascetic rules e.g. not eating flesh of killed animals. Pythagoras' speculations concerning the philosophy of nature were important for the development of mathematics and music theory. He is said to have called the universe 'kosmos' because of its inherent ordered structure. Pythagoras would have interpreted the world as a whole through numbers the arithmetic study of which he was believed to have originated. His teachings were probably tranfered in the archaic form of often aenigmatic sayings. The study of the life and work of Pythagoras is obscured by the fact that already the oldest Pythagoreans ascribed their own utterances to the Master of the sect. The proverbial 'autos epha' Pythagoras himself said so was considered as an ultimate proof of identity. His body of thought was incorporated in Platonism and found followers well into late antiquity. In modern times Pythagoras played an important role in the devolopment of the study of natural sciences. Gallilei Copernicus and Kepler appealed to him. � This edition of 1707 contains 2 biographical sketches of Pythagoras by late antique admirers Iamblichus and Porphyry. The Neoplatonic philosophers Porphyrius born ca. 234 AD in Phoenician Tyros is the oldest. He probably wrote the 'Live of Pythagoras' with the design of exhibiting Pythagoras as equal to Jesus Christ in his miracles and precepts. Porphyry a defender of paganism against chrisitanity was more a encyclopedic polymath than an original thinker. In his surviving treatises on mathematics astronomy music grammar rhetorics and history logic and in his commentaries he has the good habit of quoting his sources by name. He thus presevered many fragments of older learnings. OCD 2nd ed. p. 864/65 Porphyry was a student of Plotinus whose Enneads he edited somewhere after 300. Most of his work is written from a Plotinian point of view. He produced also numerous philosophical commentaries on Plato Aristotle Theophrastus and Plotinus. The aim of philosphy is according to Porphyry the union with God which one might reach through an ascetic life. Porphyri is beside Pythagoras the most famous vegitarian of antiquity. He even wrote a monography on vegetarianism 'De Abstinentia'. � Porphyry's pupil Iamblichus also wrote a biography of Pythagoras. His biography forms part of a much more ambitious project a 10 volume encyclopedia on Pythagorism of which 4 books have survived. This biography is the first book of the surviving 4. � The 2 biographies in this edition were edited with commentary and a Latin translation by the Westphalian classical scholar Ludolph K�ster 1670-1716 who spent most of live in the Dutch Republic. He is best known for his 3-volume edition of Suidas Cambridge 1705. In 1710 he produced a much revised edition of John Mill's 'Novum Testamentum' of 1707. K�ster who was an excellent textual critic and palaeographer revised also completely the text of the 'De vita Pythagorica liber' which had been plubished previously by the Frisian professor Johannes Arcerius Theodoretus son of Theodor in 1598. Arcerius was professor of Greek at the universtiy of Franeker from 1589. He published the 'vita' with the help of a manuscript of Iamblichus he possessed but it was of no avail. His edition and its translation are considered to be rubbish. See for him and his edition Hoffmann 2387/88 and NNBW 458/59 K�ster collated for this edition manuscripts of the Royal Library at Paris the Bodleian Library and a manuscript from the library of Spanhemius. Ad Lectorum 4 verso 'Quod ad versionem Latinam Arcerii quam prior Edit. habet attinet adeo vitiosa est ut tota pene lituram mereatur'. 2 verso Instead K�ster chose for his edition the exellent translation of Ulricus Obrecht Professor of History at Strasburg which had been published anonymously there in 1700. In his commentary on the live written by Porphyry K�ster incorporated the notes of the German scholars Conrad Ritterhusius and Lucas Holstenius published in 1610 in Altorf and in Rome in 1630 Provenance: name on front flyleaf: 'J.B. van de Mortel 1800'. On titven.nl/index.phptitle=Aen_den_Honscamp we found that one J.B. van Mortel was burgomaster of Grubbenvorst from 1808 till 1815. Later he was a member of 'Provinicale en Gedeputeerde Staten' of the province of Noord Brabant for the rural communities. On the verso of this flyleaf has been written: 'Kt�ma Joh. Hildebrandi Withofii. Anno 1718 Trajecti Batav. Symbolum: Mundus regitur opinionibus'. This is the handwriting of Johann Hildebrand Withof 1694-1769. After having studied in Germany he went to Utrecht where he probably bought this book to finish is studies on the University at Utrecht under Burman and Duker. In 1718 he was appointed rector of the Schola Latina at the Dutch city of Zaltbommel. 2 year later in 1720 he became professor of rhetoric Greek and history on the University at Duisburg. His rich library numbered 12000 volumes. ADB 43558/59 Withof has also a short lemma in Wikipedia Collation: -24 A-3D4 3E2 Photographs on request hardcover‎

Engraved frontispiece designed by J. van Steegeren depicting a company of 6 Greek mathematicians Aristoxenus Ptolemaeus Euclides Nicomachus Iamblichus and in their midst Pythagoras. Title printed in red and black. Occasional mathematical woodcut illustrations. Each of the 3 parts has a different title; the 2nd and 3rd part show the imprint: 'Daventriae typis Wilhelmi Wier 1667' Condition: Vellum soiled. Endpapers inscribed; 2 bookplates on the front pastedown. Paper partly severely browned Note: This is the 'editio princeps' of a commentary or paraphrase which the Greek neoplatonic philosopher Iamblichus ca. 240 - 325 AD wrote of Nicomachus of Gerasa's surviving 'Arithm�tik� eisag�g�' or 'Institutio Arithmetica'. Nichomachus was a neoplatonic philosopher who probably lived ca. 100 AD. The 'institutio' which Nicomachus wrote is an introduction to the arithmetic knowledge necessary for the understanding of the work of Plato and treatises of the Neopythagoreans. It consists more or less of a compilation of the general number theory of the Pythagoreans. Nichomachus discusses the one/many even/uneven several kinds of natural numbers and prime numbers. The Latin translation which Boethius produced in late antiquity of Nicomachus' 'Institutio' has profoundly influenced medieval mathematics. In the 9th century it was translated into Syrian and Arabic. The commentary/paraphrase 'On the introduction of the Arithmetic' of Nicomachus Gerasenus which Iamblichus wrote 2 centuries later was originally a part of a greater work on Pythagorism consisting of 10 books of which the greater part was lost. Neoplatonists and Pythagoreans valued mathematics highly. It was possible they thought to acquire knowledge of the universe and ultimately one self through mathematics. So the most appropriate knowlegde to human nature was mathematics.It was understood as the study of the structure of reality. � According to Hoffmann the 'De Fato' is the 7th and 8th chapter of Sectio VIII of Iamblichus work 'De Mysteriis Aegyptiorum'. The complete 'De Mysteriis' On the Mysteries was first published in Oxford in 1678 by Thomas Gale. So this fragment of 'De Fato' is in fact the 'editio princeps' of a small part 2 chapters of the 'De Mysteriis'. Iamblichus argued in his 'On the Mysteries' that the gods help man on his way and that they respond to prayer and offer supernatural guidance. � This 'editio princeps' was produced by the Dutch scholar Samuel Tennulius or Samuel Ten Nuyl who was from 1667 professor of History and Eloquence of the Academy at Nijmegen. He fled for the French who were plundering the Eastern part of the Netherlands in 1672 and ended up in Arnhem an unlikely place for the printing of a the work of a classical author let alone an 'editio princeps'. He was born in Deventer and was since 1643 the father-in-law of J.F. Gronovius who in the beginning of his career taught on the Athenaeum at Deventer before his professorship at Leyden. Tennulius is said to have been an excellent linguist and mathematician. Besides this Iamblichus edition he published a fragment of 'De Urbibus' of Stephanus Byzantinus Amst. 1669 'Agathemeris Compendiariae Expositionis Geographiae libri II' Amst. 1671 and an edition of Frontinus Leiden/Amst. 1675. Van der Aa 18 p. 63/64 & 'Inventarisatie Egodocumenten tot 1814 deel 1' on the site of 'Onderzoeksinstituut Egodocument en Geschiedenis' Tennulius stayed in Paris from 1659-1660 why we donot know where he closely befriended the famous French classical scholar Henri de Valois or Henricus Valesius 1603-1676. In the preface Tennulius tells us of his daily visits to the Frenchman how deeply he grew attached to him ut mittam reliqua amoris vestigia eius' p. II and that he learned a lot of him ab ore viri pependerim; & vidisse erat erudiri. p.I. Valesius not only instructed him but introduced him also to other Parisian men of letters. Valesius obviously had a high opion of the capacities of his Dutch friend for he even assigned him to lend a manuscript of Iamblichus from the 'Bibliotheca Memmiana' to make a transcript and to publish it. Tennulius did more than produce an edition of this difficult text of Iamblichus on Nicomachus' 'introductio' he also provided a Latin translation and extensive commentary. The book consists of 3 parts the first is the Greek text with a facing Latin translation at the end of which Tennulius filled 5 pages with a short fragment concerning a treatise of Iamblichus called 'De Fato which he had found in the Royal Library at Paris. The second part 56 pages contains the commentary on Nicomachus' 'introductio' which was published by the German genius Joachim Camerarius in Augsburg in 1554. His commentary was the best that was written during the Renaissance. So it seems a wise decision of Tennelius to incorporate this in his edition Provenance: The front flyleaves and endpapers in the rear have been inscribed in Italian. On the front endpapers which has a pair of flyleaves we find the name of this inscriber: 'ex Bibliotheca Joh. Bapt Riarii Bononiensis Patricii'. This book once belonged to a member of the Bolognese branch of the Italian noble dynasty Riario. It had members who were dukes cardinals and marquises. We donot know which Giovanni Battista Riario inscribed the endpapers. The handwriting legible but often difficult seems contemporary. The inscription seems the concept of a treatise or is a summary entitled: 'Della Pittura perfetta Ideale o bello sublime'. On the flyleaf at the end is what seems to be the layout of a title page for a publication of Riario entitled: 'Prodromi alla perfetta cognitione dalla strutura'. Riario is designated there as 'G.B. Riario Lombardo Patricio Bolognese. � 2 bookplates have been pasted on the front pastedown. In the centre of the first one an engraved bookplate: 'Ex bibliotheca Michaelis Chasles Acad. Scientiar. Socii'. Michel Chasles 1793-1880 was a French philosopher and mathematician appointed in 1841 professor of the '�cole Polytechnique'. See Wikipedia s.v. Michel Chasles with his portrait; at the verso of the second front flyleaf: 'Venant de la vente Chasles du mardi 19 Juillet 1881 3 fr. 20'; then the signature of 'P. Laffitte'. The buyer is the French philosopher Pierre Laffite 1823-1903. His pupil �mile Littr� tells that he gave 'des cours hebdomadaires d'histoire de morale de math�matique' in his own appartment. He was a brilliant teacher who entertained his students even in caf� Voltaire. He has a statue somewhere in France and rests at P�re-Lachaise. � The other bookplate belongs to the Dutch physican and famous bookcollector Bob Luza who died in 1980 and whose library was auctioned in 1981 by Van Gendt Collation: pi2 34 chi1 A-Z4 a-z4 2a4 leaf 2a4 blank and not numbered 2b-2g4 2h1 2h1 not numbered Photographs on request hardcover‎

‎St. Andrew Scotland United Kingdom UK. Good. 1990. On offer is an original interesting manuscript relic of premier level 'PGA' golf being the working notebook of caddy Ian Wright used during the 1990 British Open in St. Andrews Scotland. Wright spent the Open being the caddy for professional golfer Seve Ballesteros. The notebook is a hand-drawn pencilled golf course guide for two full 18-hole rounds complete with each hole's yardage bunkers flag position and sketches of distinctive features of each hole. Interestingly it also contains the signatures of some of the biggest golfers in the world at the time. The front page of the notebook contains the signature of Arnold Palmer Ben Crenshaw Seve Ballesteros and Hale Irwin. Most commonly each page contains a drawing of the putting green its length the slope of the green and any other features sand traps water that might surround it.

COMPLETE. 20 260 leaves ; 36 cm Red calf and Boards pages age-toned. The Hebrew word for sacrifice is Korban. The sacrifice of an animal to a deity was an acceptable form of worship among the ancients. Many mystical rites which are found in other religions can also be found in the Jewish sacrificial system. The Hebrew word Korban comes from the root "karab" which means "to approach" or "draw near." Many forms of religion believed that before "approaching " a deity one had to present a gift or offering to appease the god. Maimonides the great Jewish scholar philosopher and theologian believed the entire sacrificial system came about to accommodate man's primitive desires. Maimonides says the Torah limits the practice permitting it only in certain places at certain times by certain people and for certain purposes. Maimonides suggests that these limitations are designed to wean a primitive people away from the pagan rite of sacrifice. ; Hebrew Judaica; Folio - over 12" - 15" tall; Ritual Sacrifice MaimonidesKabbalah Judaica Jewish Studies Hebrew Talmud Rashi . hardcover‎
