8 x 12 cm. 56 S., OBrosch. (Vorderseite fast lose). Insges. geringe Knitterspuren. Erstaunlich gut erhalten u. sehr selten. EA. * Dem "Großen Kometen", zu denen er auch heute noch wegen seiner außerordentlichen Helligkeit gezählt wird, wurde erst später der Name C/1556 D1 zugeteilt. Er wurde wurde erstmals am 27. Februar 1556 von Joachim Heller am Abendhimmel gesehen. Wie viele seiner Vorgänger gab dieser Komet für die Öffentlichkeit Anlass zu Spekulationen, indem er als Unglücksbote und Gotteszeichen gesehen wurde. Wilhelm Raabe lässt ihn in seinem Roman "Der heilige Born" im Frühjahr 1556 als schreckenerregendes Zeichen am Himmel erscheinen: "Seit dem achtundzwanzigsten Februar nämlich blickte alles Volk (.) mit Grausen und Entsetzen allabendlich, wenn die Sterne aufgingen, nach einem großen Himmelswunder, welches um diese Zeit mit den gewohnten freundlichen Lichtern im himmlischen Saal emporstieg und, von Nacht zu Nacht gewaltiger und dräuender werdend, seinen Weg dem mitternächtlichen Meerstern zu nahm.".

First Edition. First Edition of the first biography of the only Dutch pope ? a contemporary account by his former pupil at Louvain. Born Adriaan Florensz Boeyens (1459-1523), Pope Adrian VI was a compromise candidate who wanted to reform the Vatican, but he died just twenty months into his pontificate, which was mired by his ineffective handling of Luther, the loss of Rhodes to the Ottomans and Italian snobbishness at Adrian?s unfashionable Dutchness. Here Morignus (also Morinck) attempts to correct the record, praising Adrian?s piety and work ethic with plenty of personal anecdotes. This Life?s prominent inclusion in Caspar Burmann?s 1727 source book on Adrian helped cement the pope?s positive legacy. I locate two copies in U.S. collections.

Only 5 U.S. copies in ESTC: Folger (Defective), Harvard, Huntington, Yale, Illinois. Dedicated to Queen Mary Tudor, Coleville?s English translation of Boethius? masterpiece is the only early English translation to include the original Latin text, indicating that, in addition to those readers with no knowledge of Latin, the author took into consideration the more educated, Latin-literate English audience. Coleville provides interesting marginal glosses and explanatory notes, including the tale of the sword of Damocles. In an amusing instance, either through ignorance or prudishness, he explains that the beautiful youth Alcibiades was a woman(!) But, remarkably, Coleville also incorporates such explanations as amplifications into the text itself, such as when Coleville seeks to clarify astronomical and meteorological references in Boethius? text. The result is a rendering of Boethius? work that offers us insight to the way in which the ?Consolation?, a work in which references to Christianity are noticeably absent, was interpreted by a mid-16th c. English Catholic educated in the humanist tradition. As Kenneth Hawley observes: ?The translation is replete with Coleville?s own insertions that attempt to amplify and/or clarify something he considers ambiguous or partially true. In his presentation of the passage wherein Lady Philosophy asserts that all motion and mutability derive ultimately ?ex diuinæ mentis stabilitate?, Colville identifies the divine as God and divides his mind into its constituent parts, so that such changeable things exist ?by the stedfastnes of gods wyll and pleasure? Thus, God?s intellectual immutability allows such moved things to exist and holds them together because he wants to do so, because it pleases him to do so. This phrase ?wyll and pleasure? was apparently a typical idiom in Colville?s day, as attested by John Knox?s 1556 printing, ?Book of Common Order?, which refers to ?the good will and pleasure of Almighty God.?? Boethius and the ?Consolation of Philosophy? "The Roman statesman and philosopher Boethius, often styled "the last of the Romans", is regarded by tradition as a Christian martyr. He was left an orphan at an early age and was educated by the pious and noble-minded Symmachus, whose daughter, Rusticana, he married. As early as 507 he was known as a learned man, and as such was entrusted by King Theodoric with several important missions. He enjoyed the confidence of the king, and as a patrician of Rome was looked up to by the representatives of the Roman nobility. When, however, his enemies accused him of disloyalty to the Ostrogothic king, alleging that he plotted to restore ?Roman liberty?, and added the accusation of ?sacrilege? (the practice of astrology), neither his noble birth nor his great popularity availed him. He was cast into prison, condemned unheard, and executed by order of Theodoric. During his imprisonment, he reflected on the instability of the favour of princes and the inconstancy of the devotion of his friends. These reflections suggested to him the theme of his best-known philosophical work, ?De Consolatione Philosophiae? "Written during his imprisonment, the ?Consolations of Philosophy? is justly called the most interesting example of prison literature the world has ever seen. It is a dialogue between Philosophy and Boethius, in which the Queen of Sciences strives to console the fallen statesman. The main argument of the discourse is the transitoriness and unreality of all earthly greatness and the superior desirability of the things of the mind. There are evident traces of the influence of the.
