Aggiungi al carrelloLeather. Condizione: Very Good. No Dust Jacket. 160 unnumbered leaves, sig: AA8; a-p8 q4, A-C8, D4. Quarto in 8s measuring 10x7". Bound in full old leather with blind stamped borders, many repairs, rebacked, lovely patina. Red and black title page with richly illustrated architectural frame above two woodcuts representing Christ…'s passion, centered on Vincent's large woodcut printer's mark. The text, in a lovely Gothic text, is beautifully illustrated with 16 woodcuts (some repeats) with scenes from Boethius's life, and 5 woodcut diagrams, along with 1 large historiated initial and many smaller initials. Another smaller Vincent printer's mark is on the verso of the last leaf. The text is framed by commentary in smaller type. In two parts, the first containing the Consolation of Philosophy, with commentary by Badius, Palasinus and Pseudo-Aquinas (now identified as Thomas Waleys). The second part has separate signatures and title: Boetius de disciplina scholarium ab Ascensio compediose dilucieo explanatus. While once attributed to Boethius, it is now thought to be by Thomas de Cantimpre. This particular copy is framed by 3 manuscript pages all in the same secretary hand: the first, on the front pastedown, and the last as the free end paper with manuscript filling recto and verso. There is also a stub of old vellum manuscript with red and blue penwork that is visible at the gutter of a1, more of which can be glimpsed through the rear pastedown. An interesting and complicated production of Boethius. On the verso of the title are two poems by Jacobus Soqualha, and on the verso of AA8 (the Tabula) , is a letter published by Nicolas Crescius in his 1507 Florence edition of De Consolatione. Ancius Manlius Severinus Boethius was the greatest Roman philosopher of his era. His translations and commentaries on Aristotle greatly influenced Western philosophy and his On the Consolation of Philosophy was the most widely read book in medieval Europe after the Bible. The story behind the Consolation is tragic: from the high office of Magister Officiorum, the head of the entire civil administration of Rome) under the "barbarian" Emperor Theodoric, Boethis was suddenly accused of treason, arrested and quickly found himself a solitary prisoner ".with death hanging over him, and a terror worse than death, in the fear lest those dearest to him should be involved in the worst results of his downfall. It is in this situation that the opening of the 'Consolation of Philosophy' brings Boethius before us. He represents himself as seated in his prison, distraught with grief, indignant at the injustice of his misfortunes, and seeking relief for his melancholy in writing verses descriptive of his condition. Suddenly there appears to him the Divine figure of Philosophy, in the guise of a woman of superhuman dignity and beauty, who by a succession of discourses convinces him of the vanity of regret for the lost gifts of fortune, raises his mind once more to the contemplation of the true good, and makes clear to him the mystery of the world's moral government. " [James: The Consolation of Philosophy of Boethius]. And so refreshed, Boethius went on to face death with classic Roman calm. It is no wonder that this account was so beloved in medieval and early modern times, "a bracing source of philosophic courage for all experiencing adversity. " The manuscript pages at front and back are intriguing. They are not commentary on the Boethius text but a separate account of an ongoing community issue (presumably in France, since one of the names mentioned is Occitan) concerning a "terrible man. " "he fears this un-hoped for man, and the functionary, having heard from the prayer of our travail, he causes to be made a manuscript in the year mentioned above and concerning this terrible man in what month he comes, January and he composes in our presence . "The translation of the three pages is preliminary because the handwriting and abbreviations are difficult. Condition is good. The binding is worn and repaired but still attractive. Interior endpapers have some old booksellers' notes and a small institutional stamp, text has some foxing and browning throughout and an occasional small stain but in general clean and attractive. Top edge of book block has "Boecius" written in an old faded script. An attractive and intriguing copy of a relatively scarce edition, USTC locates only 12 copies and just a few of the earlier editions, as well. OCLC 660081380, USTC 145373. The manuscript pages are, of course, unique. ; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 320 pages.

Late 18th or early 19th-century half sheep over marbled boards; (edges worn; light marginal spotting; otherwise the four leaves are intact and fresh). Inscription on front endpaper, "The types in this little tract bear a strong resemblance to those in the "Legenda Wolfgangi-Burgdorf 1475 a similarity may also be traced to those of Valdarfer, especially in his 'Liber de Catholica Fide contra errores infidelium'." Formerly in the British Museum Librarycollection (their cancelled red ink stamp on first and last page); armorial bookplates of James Thomas Hand and Jacob Weinberg in front, and Estelle Doheny (her sale, Christie's, 22 October 1987, lot 71). Rare Thomistic tract on the sacrament of the Eucharist; this is a self-contained extract comprising the "Q" quire of the Statuta Synodalia Herbipolensia, a set of ecclesiastical rules written for the diocese of Würzburg. The name Herbipolensia (for Würzburg) comes fromthe Latin Herba (herb) and polis (city). The De periculis contingentibus circa sacramentum eucharistiae was printed at least 17 times before the year 1500; ISTC records the earliest by the Printer of Dictys (Arnold Ther Hoernen) in Cologne at around 1470. The originating book was a synodal decree, which detailed specific proscriptions for the clergy in Würzburg. It is purported that the Würzburg council recommended including this Thomistic tract on the Eucharist as it was attached to a number of other ecclesiastical law documents of the time. In 1479, Georg Reyser was granted printing rights in Würzburg by the prince-bishop and produced many liturgical books for that city, also the administrative capital of Franconia. Thomas Aquinas (12251274), the attributed author of the tract, was a great medieval theologian. One of the central tenets of his scholarship was transubstantiation, or, the theory that bread and wine consumed in the Eucharistic mass are Christ's true flesh and blood.The inclusion of this Aquinas tract in a German incunuable is culturally important in about 30 years the full impact of Luther's Reformation would be felt in this region. This tract is important evidence of Catholic history in 15th-century Franconia. ISTC no. is00741000.

[(Colophon:) Deventer, Jacobus de Breda, 3 February 1492.] Two works in one vol., 4to, Deconsolatione: ff.[174]; [*]6 a8 br6 s4 tz6 AD6; Dedisciplina: ff.[60]; ak6, with final blank k6; gothic letter, capital spaces with guide letters, first initial… supplied later in ink incorporating a sketch of a head; first title a little duststained, some light marginal dampstaining, quire a with some staining to text, but good copies; bound in early nineteenth-century russia, boards roll-tooled in gilt and blind to a panel design, spine tooled in gilt and blind and lettered in gilt, edges speckled blue, marbled endpapers; neatly rejointed; ink inscriptions and monogram of J.Byers to title (partly obscured), ink inscription 'Ex Libris Edwardi Irving | 1728' to title (deleted in ink) and to k5r, with extensive notes in English to k5vk6r, ink inscription ? ??Wm.P.O.S.B' with notes in English and Latin to first title-page, later ink stamps of Stonyhurst College to first and last leaves with shelflabel to front board.Uncommon Deventer edition of Boethius's famous Consolation of Philosophy, along with the spuriously attributed treatise of advice for scholars. The second work was supposed to have been composed by Boethius after the Consolation but was actually a medieval invention first recorded in the 1230s. It advises what to study, obedience to one's teacher, and how to handle servants and money, but this is interspersed with episodes of stupidity, violence, and mischief, ridiculing both teachers and students. Both works claim to contain a commentary by Thomas Aquinas, but the attribution is now disputed in both cases. 'Situating De disciplina among other serio-comic grammar school teaching texts that make use of puerile fantasies, explicit sexuality, and ambiguous exempla to teach otherwise upright lessons, clarifies the pedagogical purpose of its supposedly odd Boethian humor and the acceptance that it met For much of the Middle Ages, humor, and often transgressive humor, was considered a natural pedagogical tool to stimulate interest and memory in the youngest scholars' (Hunter, p.163). Both works were printed by Jacobus de Breda, active as a printer in Deventer between 1480 and 1518. The widespread interest in Boethius through the Middle Ages and beyond meant that his works were constantly in demand; Jacobus produced at least five editions of the Consolation and four of the Disciplina by the end of the fifteenth century. Provenance: The notes by one Edward Irving at the end of the volume contain text in English, beginning 'O how the Creator of Heaven and Earth, who governs the world by an immutable law', perhaps responding to Boethius's meditations on the tension between divine Providence and man's free will. ISTC lists three copies of the first work in the US (Newberry, Yale and the Huntington) and only one of the second work (Johns Hopkins).
