Bible in Portuguese. Pereira de Figueiredo Antonio trans
O Novo Testamento de Nosso Senhor Jesu Christo Traduzido em Portuguez Segundo a Vulgata
Novo York 1839. Good plus. Original mottled calf spine gilt ruled leather label. Boards scuffed calf somewhat worn at edges and along spine. Pastedowns detaching from boards. A scarce Portuguese New York imprint comprising the Catholic New Testament. The translator Antonio Pereira de Figueiredo was a Portuguese monk who completed his vernacular Bible over the course of eighteen years during the late-18th century. His New Testament was originally published in parts from 1778 to 1781. The publication of this edition in New York by the American Bible Society perhaps correlates to the growth of Portuguese immigration to the Northeast associated with the rise of the American whaling industry during this period. books

Theodore Beza a French Reformed Protestant theologian and Calvinist produced one Latin and four Greek-Latin editions of the New Testament in his lifetime working carefully through extant Greek manuscript sources. Estiennes great glossed Latin Bible of 1556/57 thus contained the translation of the Old Testament by Dominican philologist Sante Pagnini or Pagninus 14701536 first printed in 1528. Based on the Hebrew Pagninis text is in the center of each page and Bezas translation from the Greek is in smaller type to the side with commentary and alternate readings underneath. The Estienne-Beza Latin Bible with its copious notes and ties to Calvinist theology was of considerable importance in the early modern era. The 20 woodcut biblical illustrations were first used in an Estienne edition of the Bible printed in Paris in 1540. This copy beautifully bound in a Dutch vellum enjoyed placement in one of the finest libraries in Britain from around the mid-18th century. See also Renouard 'Estienne' p. 87; cf.

Berchem Invent. & Matham sic Sculp depicting two female figures holding La Sainte Bible; together with two cherubs one holding the Ten Commandments and Le Saint Evangile; the latter with his foot on a skull. This spectacular frontispiece combines the works from three profound engravers of Dutch 17th century publishing activities. There are numerous engraved illustrations throughout the text plus five added maps and plans. Four of these Paradis terrestre facing p. 3 part 1 Voyages des Israelites facing p. 86 part 1 Pais de Canaan facing p. 1 part 3 Voyages des Apotres facing p. 68 part 3 were designed specifically for this edition by N. Berchem; the first three were executed by A. Blotelingh and the last mentioned by I. de Visscher. The fifth inserted engraving is an unsigned map of Jerusalem facing p. 247 part 1 plus the Temple and Temple furniture and was copied from the Polyglot Bible printed in London in 1655-57. see Chambers Bibliography of French Bibles II; Seventeenth Century French Language.p. 482 ff. Woodcut printers device on title of Minerva an owl and olive tree with proverbial legend Ne extra oleas Nothing but the olive. Contemporary vellum spliced or splitting in some areas otherwise holding up well a robust volume. <br/><br/>La Sainte Bible printed by Louis and Daniel Elzevier of Amsterdam has been called without exception the most splendid French Bible ever printed Bibl. Sussexiana. However Brunet echoed by Graesse calls is très remarquable par sa belle éxecution typographique; mais la correction en a eté peu soignée et les notes ne sont pas estimées. A magnificent but not very correct edition. According to the catalogue of 1675 it was printed in four sizes of type Imperial France Real Veluws Real and Grand Mediaen. It was one of the few large-format productions of the Elzevier presses better known for their small Port-Royal New Testaments. The two printmakers who engraved Berchems designs for the Bible maps Abraham Blooteling 1640-1690 and Jan de Visscher 1632-1692 were highly respected artists who lived and worked in Amsterdam. These engravers must have been acquainted and had probably studied together in the workshop of Cornelis Visscher. Both most likely were selected or at least approved by Berchem as engravers of the map prints. Four of the five maps within the 1669 La Sainte Bible are ornamented with illustrations engraved from models by Berchem. Designs on the fifth map may also be by Berchem.

The accepted publicaton date for this Bible is 1818; three other known copies are known to have been issued either in quarter leather and marbled paper boards or in printed card covers. Our copy is in what is clearly publisher's cloth with gilt blocked on the upper board. This combination is unknown before 1826.
