Condition: Buono (Good). 8vo (152x106 mm). [72] leaves. Collation: A-I8. Colophon and printer's device on l. I7v. Leaf I8 is a blank. Large woodcut on the title page and 23 half-page woodcut illustrations in the text. Text in Italian and Latin.

On the title page ownership inscription ?questo libro sie di fra salvador graziolo da sallo?, whose initials ?F.S.G.S.? are written on the front panel (on the back panel there is another inscription with the initials ?VAGS?). Restoration to the outer upper corner of ll. C1 and C2 slightly affecting the text, otherwise a very good, clean copy.Reprint of the second Valvassori edition of 1533. Del Tuppo's Vita Aesopi was first printed in Naples in 1485 together with Aesop's fables. It had a remarkable success and was reprinted several times until the mid 16th century. With the only expection of the Aquila edition of 1493 which contains both the Vita and the Fabulae, all subsequent editions reproduce only the Vita. Valvassori issued two editions in 1533, one dated 8 March of 74 leaves and one of 72 leaves, on which the present is based.The title-page illustration is a copy of the woodcut used in Vergil's Moretum (Venice, Pasini, September 1525). The 23 woodcut vignettes in the text are copies of those used in the Bonelli edition of 1492.Francesco del Tuppo was a Neapolitan printer, bookseller and man of letters who carried out various administrative tasks for the Aragonese. First as a partner in S. Riessinger's printing house (the first the be established in Naples), then, after 1478, as its director, he printed, among other books, his own translation in an Italian vernacular full of terms from the Neapolitan dialect, of Rinuccio da Castiglione d'Arezzo's Latin version of Aesop's Life. The choice of the subject and the language was certainly motivated by the popularity of the Aesop tradition and Del Tuppo's poor knowledge of Latin (P. Farenga, Del Tuppo, Francesco, in: ?Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani?, vol. 38, Rome, 1990, s.v.).The work is dedicated to Onorato Gaetani, Count of Fondi, promoter and financier of the first edition. The Vita Aesopi is a composite work, made up of removable and interchangeable parts, which can be taken out and added to without altering significantly the narrative structure. Different human types and cultural paradigms from different epochs converge in the figure of the protagonist, which has the double role of agens, as main character in his biographical events, and of auctor, as inventor of the fables closely linked to these events. Over time, however, the second of these two functions prevailed, and some anecdotes originally included in the biographical narrative began to circulate as autonomous tales. This is the case of the tales of the gardener crushed by the greater abundance of wild herbs than of the plants he cultivates in his vegetable garden; of the sheep and the pig led to the slaughterhouse; of the two paths, that of virtue and that of slavery, between which man must choose; of the wolves who, by deception, kill the shepards; of the cicada caught by the hunter; of the pieces of wood mistaken from afar for large ships; of the two foxes and the rooster; of the industrious man who leaves everything to devote himself to agriculture; of the old man who wants to see the city at least once in his life; and of the exocean who escapes the sturgeon only by dying. Every chapter opens with the Latin text followed by Del Tuppo's vernacular version (cf. S. Rovere, L'Esopo napoletano di Francesco del Tuppo, Pisa, 2017, pp. 1-58).Edit 16, CNCE39415; Essling, 617; Sander, 105; S. Rovere, Op. cit., p. 88. Book.

Titolo brunito e con una piccola mancanza al recto e al verso, piccole mancanze anche alla carta A1 con perdita di tre lettere, leggere fioriture sparse.Diciassettesima edizione (prima edizione: Parma, 1508) del fortunatissimo romanzo del Caviceo, qui ristampato insieme alla sua biografia scritta dal concittadino Giorgio Anselmi, che rimane a tutt'oggi una delle fonti principali sulla vita del Caviceo.?Ma la fatica più importante del Caviceo è senz'altro il suo romanzo, il Peregrino, in volgare, edito a Parma nel 1508. L'opera si differenzia in maniera netta dal resto della sua produzione letteraria, che è di ispirazione umanistica e scritta in latino, e nasce da sorgenti culturali diverse. Il Peregrino è posto sotto la paternità del Boccaccio che, apparendo in sogno all'autore, canta le lodi di Lucrezia Borgia, dedicataria dell'opera. Il romanzo, volutamente retrodatato dall'autore, è ambientato nella Ferrara di Ercole I. La vicenda è tutta imperniata sulle lunghe peregrinazioni del protagonista prima dell'appagamento del suo sogno d'amore. Innamoratosi fin dal primo incontro di Ginevra, Peregrino desidera ardentemente rivederla, quando riceve da lei uno strano messaggio, grazie alla compiacenza della serva Astanna. Mentre egli cerca affannosamente Ginevra, cade nelle mani di alcuni sbirri che seguono le tracce di un omicida. Scambiato per il colpevole, è sottoposto ad un lungo processo, dal quale esce innocente, grazie alla strenua difesa del grande giurista Antonio dai Liuti. Dopodiché Peregrino tenta di farsi ricevere dall'amata, nascosto dentro a una statua di legno di S. Caterina. Colpevole di sacrilegio, è sollecitato dalla donna a recarsi in Levante per espiare il suo peccato. Ha inizio così il periglioso viaggio del protagonista, accompagnato dal fido amico Acate. Infinite sono le loro avventure prima di raggiungere di nuovo Ferrara. Qui Peregrino apprende con immenso dolore che Ginevra è stata rinchiusa in un monastero; riparte allora per l'Oriente per consultare un oracolo che gli sappia indicare dove è la donna amata. Giunto da un eremita, che lo fa cadere in un sonno pro fondo, visita gli Inferi, e qui trova accomunati i più bei nomi dell'aristocrazia italiana, e anche Astanna che gli rivela dove si trova Ginevra. Tra i vivi egli continua il suo viaggio attraverso l'India, Rodi, Creta e di nuovo sbarca in Italia, a Rimini; lo accoglie amorevolmente Elisabetta Gonzaga. A Ravenna, finalmente, ha la conferma che Ginevra è in un monastero di quella città. Con la complicità della badessa vengono celebrate le nozze dei due amanti. Ma la felicità è di breve durata. Ginevra nove mesi dopo muore di parto e Peregrino, non reggendo al dolore, di lì a poco la segue nella tomba. Il filo narrativo, modellato su temi boccacceschi derivanti soprattutto dall'Amorosa visione e dal Filocolo, è abbastanza esile e continuamente interrotto dai monologhi o dai dialoghi di. tipo amoroso, a sfondo filosofico e di carattere erudito, da dibattiti giudiziari e da lunghi excursus consolatori. Ma, al di là dell'ispirazione boccaccesca, il Caviceo affronta con il Peregrino un genere del tutto nuovo, quello della prosa di fantasia, che aveva quale immediato precedente Sabadino degli Arienti; diversamente da lui il Caviceo tenta tuttavia di unificare la materia frammentaria delle novelle in un racconto unico, riprendendo in questo il tentativo di Francesco Colonna. Del resto il Peregrino ci riporta all'opera del frate veneziano anche per la lingua, Book.

Moreau, Inventaire chronologique des éditions parisiennes du 16e siècle, (Paris, 1985), III, p. 149, no. 391. FIRST EDITION of this collection of 56 letters published by the author's nephew Robert Raulin. ?On trouve, dans la correspondence de Raulin, la même doctrine de réforme par le retour aux vertus monastiques: chasteté du corps, ?abstinence' de l'esprit, devotion, paix et concorde, obéissance ou plus simplement ?la pauvreté et la charité' ? (G.T. Bedouelle, Jean Raulin, in: ?Dictionaire de Spiritualité?, Paris, 1932-1995, 13, pp. 156). These ideas are clearly expressed in the letter to the friars of St. Alban in Basel (ll. LVv-LIXr).?Several ideas may be drawn from his correspondence. First, Raulin relied heavily upon his long term relationships in the clerical milieu, bishops and heads of monasteries, to push his reform efforts forward. He labored primarily with and among the Benedictines, with a few exceptions, and crossed into other monastic orders only as the need arose. Second, many of Raulin's correspondents were relationships that he had developed during his time as chancellor of Navarre; many were former colleagues and students. It is possible that Raulin had begun to sow the seeds of clerical reform among colleagues and students while at Navarre. Later, as his ideas matured and his plan unfolded, those relationships proved useful and strategic for clerical reform. A third idea we can draw from his correspondence is that he appears to have had a precise strategy - he wrote those in positions of leadership who might more successfully accomplish reform in the monasteries. The majority of his letters are addressed to those in ecclesiastical authority, bishops, abbots, and priors, who had greater authority to bring reform to the monasteries. Fourth, his reliance on political help to accomplish reform was minimal, although he did use civil authority to force entry into a few monasteries and to impose his reforms. Fifth, the College of Navarre was a center of reformist and humanist activity since the time of Gerson, early in the fifteenth century. Twenty-five letters of the fifty-six were addressed to former Navarrists, nine former graduates and professors of Navarre during the twenty-five plus years that Raulin was associated with the school. Eight letters were addressed to the like-minded principle of the College of Montaigu and close friend, Jean Standonck, who was also involved in clerical reform. A sixth idea is seen in the nature of Raulin's letters. They fall into three main categories: 1) letters of encouragement to continue in the struggle for reform; 2) letters of admonishment to those who were not taking an active enough of approach in the reform; and 3) letters asking for help or influence to push the reform forward. Based on the existing correspondence, clerical reform, both monastic and episcopal reform was the central theme in Raulin's Epistolae? (H.K. Foreman, Jean Raulin, 1443-1515, and the ?Ideal Clergy': a Study of Clerical Reform in Early Sixteenth Century France, Thesis, Aberdeen, 2008, pp. 69-70).Added is a speech Raulin held at the Collège de Navarre and the famous oration on church reform held in the monastery of Cluny, Collatio de perfecta religionis plantatione, incremento, et instauratione, published for the first time at Basel by Sebastian Brant in 1498. At the end is found a poem by Nicolas Barthélémy de Loches and one by Sebastian Brant. Epistola liminaris. Raulin, Robert to Selve, Jean de (l. aa2r)Poncher, Étienne (l.

Bürgermeister der Stadt Zürich. 1433 reiste er als Vertreter der Reichsstadt Zürich zur Kaiserkrönung Sigismunds von Luxemburg nach Rom, wo er zum Ritter geschlagen wurde. Während seiner Amtszeit versuchte Stüssi das Herrschaftsgebiet der Stadt Zürich stark zu erweitern. Über dem Streit um das Erbe von Graf Friedrich VII. von Toggenburg mit dem Kanton Schwyz brach 1436 der Alte Zürichkrieg zwischen der Eidgenossenschaft und Zürich aus. In der älteren Schweizer Geschichtsschreibung wird dabei immer wieder stark auf den persönlichen Konflikt zwischen dem als stolz und herrisch beschriebenen Stüssi und dem Landammann von Schwyz, Ital Reding dem Älteren, Bezug genommen.

A German humanist and philosopher, Agricola was also active as a musician. "[He] is regarded as one of the most important figures in the transmission to northern Europe of Italian humanism. His interest in music and his practical musical ability distinguish him from many of his contemporary humanistic scholars and mark a turning point in the relationship between this broad intellectual movement and music. He was later strongly influential in the development of philosophy and education in Germany, and was greatly admired by Erasmus and Melanchthon." Lewis Lockwood in Grove Music Online.
