The Trees of the Genealogia Deorum of Boccaccio

1923Best.-Nr. 23077Chicago: The Caxton Club 1923. FIRST and LIMITED EDITION one of only 160 copies printed on handmade Fabriano Paper. With 21 plates three of which are in beautiful full colour with printed tissue guards. Also with fine engraved ititials and tables throughtout. 4to publisher’s original half vellum over buff boards with small vellum corner-pieces. 24pp plates. A very fine copy near as pristine. SCARCE LIMITED TO ONLY 160 COPIES. A study of the genealogical tables used to decorate Boccaccio's great mythological work from manuscripts and the early printed editions. Genealogia deorum gentilium known in English as On the Genealogy of the Gods of the Gentiles is a mythography or encyclopedic compilation of the tangled family relationships of the classical pantheons of Ancient Greece and Rome written in Latin prose in circa 1360 by the Italian author and poet Giovanni Boccaccio. The first printed edition was in Venice at the early date of 1472. By 1499 no fewer then eight editions had published attesting to the popularity of the work. Ernest Hatch Wilkins was a respected authority on Italian literature. His teaching career began at Amherst as an instructor of Romance languages from 1900 to 1904 and continued at Harvard where he taught from 1906 to 1912 and again from 1947 to 1950 as a visiting lecturer on Italian literature. In 1912 he went to the University of Chicago where he was successively Associate Professor and Professor of Romance languages until his move to Oberlin in 1927. From 1923 to 1926 he served the University as Dean of its College of Arts Literature and Science Wilkins served as Oberlin College's seventh president from 1927 until his retirement in 1946. He authored several respected works on Dante Petrarch and Papini. He was a corresponding member of the Accademia Della Crusca in Florence and was decorated with the Cavaliere della Corona d'Italia in 1920 for his international promotion of Petrarch and Dante.

THE TRAGEDIES GATHERED BY JHON BOCHAS OF ALL SUCH PRINCES AS FELL FROM THEYR ESTATES THROUGHE THE MUTABILITY OF FORTUNE SINCE THE CREATION OF ADAM UNTIL HIS TIME. "FALL OF PRINCES"

1554Best.-Nr. ST19091London: Iohn Wayland at the signe of the Sunne oueragainst the Conduite in Flete-strete. Cum priuilegio per septennium 1554 or 1555. Third or Fourth Edition of the First English Translation of "De Casibus Illustrium Virorum. 340 x 220 mm. 13 1/4 x 8 3/4". 9 p.l. clxiii xxxvi xxxv-xxxvii 1 leaves complete including "A Memorial of such Princes" leaf often lacking at the end; collates as ESTC. Translated from the French version of Laurent de Premierfait by John Lydgate. Attractive 19th century honey-brown morocco by Francis Bedford stamp-signed on front turn-in covers gilt with French fillet frame oblique bouquets at corners raised bands spine compartments with central fleuron framed by geometrical compartments filled with floral tooling gilt lettering gilt-rolled turn-ins marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Title page and Gg4 recto title page of a suppressed supplement dealing with English notables with woodcut title border the top compartment with the Royal Arms termini at sides the pedestal at base with a tablet showing one boy waking another with the motto "Arise for it is day" McKerrow & Ferguson 76a A4 recto with woodcut depicting the Creation of Eve flanked by terminal side-pieces woodcut historiated and floral initials throughout. Printed in black letter. Front pastedown with engraved bookplate of Christopher William Beaumont Pease; rear pastedown with bookplates of John William Pease and Lord Wardington. Chrzanowski 1555b; Pforzheimer 73; Luborsky & Ingram 3178; STC 3178; ESTC S107087. Spine somewhat sunned and dulled extremities very lightly rubbed boards with a couple of faint scratches but the once very handsome binding still attractive. Title leaf and final leaf extended at foot first few and last couple of leaves excluding title and final leaf with small minor repair at upper corner probably pressed and perhaps lightly washed at the time of binding isolated trivial stains but the text still surprisingly fresh remarkably clean and entirely smooth. This is a desirable copy of an important 16th century translation of Boccaccio's study of the vicissitudes of fortune prepared by John Lydgate a poet much influenced by Chaucer. Educated in the Benedictine monastery where he eventually served as prior Lydgate ca. 1370 - 1449/50 was a respected poet whose works DNB tells us "bear the mark of a pious and learned mind." And an indication of his importance is reflected in Chrzanowski's statement that "well into the 16th century the premier poets of England were considered to be Geoffrey Chaucer John Gower and Lydgate." Undertaken ca. 1431 at the request of the duke of Gloucester the 36365 lines here divided into nine books required a massive effort that took until 1438 or 1439 to complete. In the text a parade of notable historical figures pass before "Bochas" Boccaccio telling of the turns of fate that brought their careers and reputations crashing down from a pinnacle. According to DNB Lydgate's interpretation of the work "urges the traditional doctrines of moderation the avoidance of pride and the pursuit of virtue and demonstrates the horror of discord and strife between kinsfolk. This advice though couched in general terms was highly relevant to contemporary princes." This relevance led to popularity: more than 30 manuscripts of the work survive and it was printed previously in 1494 and in 1527. The final leaf here Gg4 contains the title page for "A Memorial of Such Princes as since the Tyme of King Richard the Seconde Haue Been Unfortunate in the Realme of England" intended for issue with "Fall of Princes" but suppressed by Queen Mary. It was finally published as the famous "Mirrour for the Magistrates" in 1559 after Elizabeth I had ascended the throne. The binding here is by the eminent West End bindery of Francis Bedford d. 1883 and was owned by three generations of the Wardington family who created one of the finest private libraries in England. It contains the bookplates of Northumberland banker John William Beaumont Pease 1869-1950 who began the collection; a grandson Christopher Henry Beaumont Pease 2nd Baron Wardington 1924-2005 who was successively Chairman Vice-President and then President of the Friends of the British Library; and a great-grandson the Hon. Christopher William Beaumont Pease b. 1970. The Wardington sales at Sotheby's in London were major bibliophilic events in 2005 and 2006. The very expert extension at the bottoms of the title leaf and the rare final leaf would seem to suggest that these come from another copy the leaves are not facsimiles. In any case every recent copy sold at auction according to RBH lacked one or both of these leaves or had other leaves supplied. This fact plus the fine state of preservation of our copy and its distinguished provenance surely are more than enough to compensate for the volume's one appreciable shortcoming.

The Three Admirable Accidents of Andrea de Piero; from the First Englyshed Edition of the Decameron with Prospectus

1954Best.-Nr. 9407Lexington KY: Gravesend Press 1954. Vellum Binding. Near Fine binding. 18mo. 10 48 4 pp. illus. Limited edition number 9 of 200 copies. As issued in vellum-backed patterned-paper over boards. Lacking the slipcase. A handsome copy with only light toning to the perimeters of the boards; contents clean. This copy with 4-page prospectus. This work was the first book issued by the Gravesend Press that was actually printed using the Graves' press in their stable by Graves and Jacob Hammer. Kredel's charming engraved pressmark of a sleeping pressman graces the final page. Graves writes about this in his Bibliographical Confession the donkey in the window was their family pet Patience. Graves operated the press as a sideline from about 1949 through to the end of his life in 1960 issuing scarcely more than half a dozen books. While less known that some of his contemporaries he took his place amidst a vibrant mid-century printing and illustrating scene—friends with Victor Hammer Carolyn Reading Fritz Kredel John DePol John Fass and others. H. Richard Archer in a history of the Graves and his press published in The Kentucky Review Spring 1987 summarizes Graves's work thus: "All of the books whether pamphlets or bound books reflect the taste and high standards of a true amateur craftsman and as such they certainly qualify as choice examples from one of this generation's most distinguished private presses." Press historian Roderick Cave notes that this was "probably the most successful Gravesend book" p. 263.
