Just barely perceptible rubbing to joints and extremities one leaf with tiny burn hole affecting a couple of words intermittent minor foxing negligible ink spots here and there other trivial imperfections but an extremely attractive copy the text fresh and clean and the very well-preserved binding with lustrous leather and bright gilt. This is a remarkably pretty copy of an extremely influential but generically elusive work printed by a legendary press and bound by the founder of a celebrated French binding dynasty. First published in 1524 the "Colloquia" comprise 63 conversations originally written for Erasmus' students on varied and overlapping topics but these urbane meditations soon became widely read as they covered subjects that intrigued the important thinkers of the day. Their influence was so profound that it is not saying too much to claim that they helped to speed the Reformation. Although they are difficult to classify precisely one could categorize them as including in general terms exposure of ritualistic fallacies invective against corruption within the church examination of popular imposture deploring of contemporary personal sins practical advice for laymen and miscellaneous discussion of amusing topics. In specific terms the text takes on such controversial topics as the value of pilgrimage celibacy and abstinence from meat on Fridays and other prescribed days. Erasmus' "Colloquia" was frequently published by the Elzeviers once in French and a total of nine times in Latin. The text was universally adopted for school use up through the 18th century. Although our lovely little binding is unsigned Culot firmly identifies its tools as those used by Jean-Claude Bozerian 1762-1840. He was the elder of the Bozerian brothers François is referred to as "le jeune" and was active in Paris from 1795 to about 1810. He began his career in Lyon as an apprentice bookseller printer and bookbinder eventually deciding to focus on the latter craft. Marriage to the widow of binder Pierre Boulier allowed him to establish a binding workshop in Paris where he was joined by his brother. His bindings were soon much in demand by French bibliophiles who appreciated their superior materials tasteful design and flawless execution--all characteristics that are plainly evident in the present case.

Erasmus Darwin 1731-1802 was an English physiologist and poet the grandfather of Charles Darwin. A physician in Litchfield UK Darwin kept an 8 acre botanical garden. Darwin's reputation rests on his long poem The Botanic Garden 1789 which anticipates the Linnaean system. It was crude poetry seemingly written in a carriage while Darwin was traveling between patients. He decribed the plants through a misplaced amusing personification . In the present work he described the plants as having sensation and volition.

Sentimens d'Erasme de Roterdam conformes à ceux de l’Église catholique sur tous les points controversez dediées au roi de la Grande Bretagne The Thoughts of Erasmus of Rotterdam Consistent with Those of the Catholic Church on All Controversial Points Dedicated to the King of Great Britain

1688ref. 49228Cologne disguised; Paris or the Netherlands: Adrian Le Jeune 1688. First edition. Hardcover. Very good . Duodecimo. Collation: aster.12 2aster.6 A-R12 S4 = 226 leaves. 36 415 1 blankpp. Engraved frontispiece and headpiece; woodcut lettrines head- and tailpieces; printed side notes. Contemporary calf mildly worn at extremities; gilt tooled spine with raised bands gilt lettering piece; edges sprinkled in red. Old inscription cropped from top edge title; one leaf with clean marginal tear just extending into text else fine and crisp throughout. First edition of this defense of Jansenism via the celebrated scholar of Rotterdam. Among the works reviewed by Locke for Jean Le Clerc the present title “indicated a new wave of interest in Erasmus” Mansfield. “Jean Richard 1615-1686 wanted to persuade the Roman Catholic Church that in persecuting the Jansenists it was as much in error as it had been when it denounced Erasmus. He also wanted to convince the English monarch that despite appearances to the contrary Erasmus had never adopted any stance outside the Catholic Church” van Herwaarden. The author surely intends the quotation from Cyprian at the verso of the title as a reference to both Erasmians and Jansenists: “This is always the devil’s work to destroy with lies the servants of God and defame their glorious name with false opinions” trans. Mansfield. Early modern reviews were mixed: Bayle considered it a “pity that the author. stopt at the first part of it” General Dictionary 5 1737 “Erasmus” 85 note T. Burigny Vie d’Erasme Paris: 1758 judged it “. so badly done and so filled with invectives and declamations that it does not lead one to wish for the second” 547; quoted in Mansfield 293n. In 1660 the French cleric Jean Richard was imprisoned by the archbishop of Rouen de Harlay a bitter opponent of Jansenism."During this personal crisis he published two works in defense of his Jansenist belief and behaviour. As we shall see there are grounds for believing that his Sentimens. was meant in part at least to achieve the same end. Nevertheless mysteries surround the work: it was published posthumously Richard died in 1686 having been prior of Beaulieu Saint-Avoie since 1673; what we have is the first part and we may only guess at how seriously the promise of a second part was intended. As it stands this is an ill-organized book repetitive with many digressions but filled with a naive enthusiasm and fascinating partly because of the evidences of a sound judgment about Erasmus partly because of the tantalizing but insoluble problem of the author’s aims. The avowed aim was proselytism. The book is dedicated -- on the eve of the Revolution of 1688 -- to James II of England a new Theodosius who is hazarding three kingdoms for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. May it help the English people to follow the king’s example in conversion to Catholicism by showing them the true character of Erasmus’ religion" Mansfield. References: Barbier 4:467. J. v.

Occasional faint smudging mostly at margins else text crisp and fresh. A very good copy in a well-preserved sixteenth-century binding with a notable provenance. Scarce very early collective edition of the Latin "Paraphrases" of the Pauline Epistles prepared by the celebrated humanist scholar theologian and educational writer Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam 1466-1536. Preceded by the Froben collective editions of 1520 and 1521 this first and only edition of the Pauline Epistle Paraphrases to be printed at Mainz was issued by Schöffer in two parts each with full title and separate register and pagination; our volume contains the first part only: the Epistles to the Romans; Corinthians 2; Galatians; Ephesians; Philippians; Colossians; and Thessalonians 2. "In the vast and sustained labour he devoted to the New Testament Erasmus saw the culmination of his commitment to scholarship. and nothing else he wrote not even the Moriae encomium was to have so great an influence on posterity. The first edition of the New Testament appeared in 1516 and was followed in his lifetime by four more 1518/10 1522 1527 1535 each newly revised. Each consisted of the Greek text Erasmus' translation thereof and a copious apparatus of notes Annotations published as a separate volume. Beginning in 1517 he also published a Paraphrase of all parts of the New Testament save Revelation. Written in smooth and comprehensible Latin it was usually fuller than the original text. If offered his own interpretatiton but often avoided the provocative statements found in the Annotations. From the outset the translation the Annotations and to a lesser degree the Paraphrases drew criticism originally from conservative theologians who found heresies in his humanist philology but soon also from Lutherans and Catholics who denounced him for departures from their respective doctrines" Bietenholz. The Paraphrases were composed between May 1517 and January 1524. "Erasmus began with the Pauline Epistles. The paraphrase of Romans was published in quarto by Dirk Martens in Louvain in November 1517 and reprinted by Erasmus's friend Johann Froben in January of the following year; it sold well and was soon reprinted in octavo. Corinthians was published by Martens in February 1519 and reprinted in Basel by Froben in March; Galatians appeared later that year with editions from both publishers. The remaining Epistles followed in 1520 and 1521 the last to appear being Hebrews. In the autumn of 1521 Erasmus moved from Louvain to Basel and from that time Froben published the first editions of the remaining Paraphrases" Mynors. Our edition was printed by Johann Schöffer the son of Peter Schöffer who was the principal workman of Johannes Gutenberg. Apart from those of the Pauline Epistles the only other complete Paraphrase of Erasmus to be published by Schöffer was that on the Gospel of Matthew also in 1522. He did in 1521 however issue a series of four brief excerpts from the Paraphrases in German translation which appear to highlight provocative exegesis by the great scholar of Rotterdam concerning for example the hypocracy of the Pharisees Matthew 23 or the exhortation to "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me" Matthew 11.29. Provenance and annotations: Contemporary manuscript entry at the title-page of the Benedictine monastery library at Amorbach; contemporary 50-word manuscript note in Latin at the free endleaf facing the title which discusses the present work. Early manuscript note in German at the final blank endleaf. Early leaves with light rubrication in red ink; about twenty leaves with contemporary annotations throughout. Later stamps of the Leiningen Palace Library at the bottom margin of the title and very faintly at the pigskin covers. Bookplate of United Theological Seminary Dayton Ohio noting the gift of Dr. Walter N. Roberts with their vertical entry stamp Mar 28 1963 at the dedication leaf lightly over the left-hand edge of the text but not impairing legibility. Full title and imprint: Paraphrases Eras. Rot.
