1755réf. 178721Paris: d'Houry seul imprimeur-libraire de monseigneur le Duc d'Orleans 1755. Royal Easter in Paris A beautiful copy of the Easter liturgy for the year 1755 printed and finely bound in Paris for the House of Orléans. The covers bear the arms of Louis-Philippe I 1725-1785 Duke of Orléans Valois and Montpensie premier prince du sang and grandfather of Louis-Philippe I the last king of France. Editions of the Easter liturgy were produced every year and printed by d'Houry the official printer to the duke of Orléans. Copies in fine bindings such as this bearing the arms of the current duke were destined for members of the family and court and to faithful subjects. The binding was very likely made by Jean-Charles-Henri LeMonnier le jeune who is documented as bookbinder to the duke of Orléans from 1759. The LeMonniers were one of the most famous families of bookbinders of the period. Henry le jeune son of Jean-Charles senior "lived with his father in the Rue Saint-Jean-de-Beauvais probably sharing his atelier and his tools and it is difficult to distinguish their work. The bindings for the duke of Orléans and his family are most probably the work of le jeune" Foot p. 199. Octavo 193 x 122 mm. Copper-engraved frontispiece.

In its imposing original binding this is a famous Reformer's copy of five now-scarce theological works and a volume that ironically later belonged to a counter-Reformation mission. The most important Reformation figure after Martin Luther and Philip Melanchthon Johan also Johann Hess 1490-1547 was educated in Leipzig and Wittenberg where he was initially exposed to Luther's preaching. After several years serving as secretary to the bishop of Breslau now Wroc aw he traveled to Italy to complete his studies in theology and was ordained a priest upon his return to Breslau in 1520. His misgivings about the Church had increased in the years leading up to his ordination and he publicly voiced his support for the Reformation in a 1523 sermon in Nuremburg. He became the first Protestant pastor elected in Breslau and played a major role in the spread of the Reformation within the region. He participated in the major theological debates of the day taking part in the Diet of Regensburg the final attempt at reconciliation between the Reformers and the Catholic Church within the Holy Roman Empire. The present volume's selection demonstrates the range of his theological interests: its five works while all published in a one-year period span 1000 years of biblical scholarship and a variety of topics. The first is the original printing of the 5th century theologian Vigilius of Thapsus' condemnation of Eutyches whose beliefs about Christ's blended divine and human nature had been deemed heretical. This is followed by the 12th century Benedictine abbot Rupert of Deutz's discussion of the minor prophets a rare imprint USTC finds only one copy in a U. S. institution. The third work is a commentary on the Book of Job by Phillipus Presbyter an otherwise little-known disciple of St. Jerome. This was the only printing of this work under the author's own name the only other 16th century edition being credited to the Venerable Bede. This edition provides the text as taken from a now-lost manuscript at Fulda Abbey. The fourth included work is 9th century Irish monk Sedulius Scotus' scriptural commentary on Paul's letters. This and the previous work were printed by the Officina Petri the oldest extant Basel publishing house. The fifth and final text is by a contemporary of Hess the French humanist Jacques Lefèvre d’Étaples ca.1455 - ca. 1536. While Lefèvre remained committed to reform within rather than separation from the Roman Church his ideas and writings greatly influenced the Reformers. The present work is the first edition of his commentaries on the New Testament epistles published by major Basel printer Andreas Cratander. Ironically nearly two centuries after Hess' death this volume was owned by a group working precisely counter to his own goals and ideals. The 1739 inscription indicates that the copy was the property of the Franciscan mission in Dessau which was founded in 1719 to convert the now largely Protestant population back to Catholicism. Since Hess was the leading Protestant pastor in Breslau in Silesia from the time our five works were issued until he died two decades later the present binding was very probably done in a nearby Silesian workshop. Other Hess volumes appearing on the market over the years have mostly been unremarkable octavos so the present thick folio with its distinctive forceful decoration and titling stands out as unusually impressive. unknown
