Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. [80], 560 pp., [10], woodcut Arabic half-title, Latin title printed in red & black, "Sententia Muhammedis." leaf bound after Latin title, but lacking the second Arabic half-title (as usual), preface in Latin, text in vocalised Arabic, contemporary half vellum with marbled boards, all edges red, index, cover rubbed, soiled and worn round edges, few contemporary Latin annotations in margins with some interlinear annotations, Monastic library stamp on last leaf and labels on back endpaper, contemporary Latin note on front endpaper, otherwise a good copy, Ex Officina Schultzio-Schilleriana, [G. Schultz & B. Schiller]. The Hamburg Koran was long believed to be the first edition printed, the preliminary text being dated 10 May 1694. However, there exists a unique surviving copy of a printing prepared by Alexander Paganini at Venice in 1537-1538, which was discovered in Venice in 1987. Teseo Ambrogio degli Albonesi's `Introductio in chaldaicam linguam' (Pavia 1593), states that the only trace of the existence of the Koran which was printed by Father Alexander Paganini of Brescia at the end of the fifteenth or at the beginning of the sixteenth century is a record of the destruction of the printing, but that no copy of the edition was then known to have survived. The unique survivor was Ambrogio's own copy. The Hamburg Koran therefore remains as the first obtainable printed edition. Dr Abraham Hinckelmann (1652-1695), a German Protestant theologian, was an Islamologist who was one of the first to print a complete Qur'an in Hamburg. He studied at Wittenberg and collected many Oriental manuscripts. He compiled a Koranic lexicon in manuscript and planned a Latin translation of the Koran, but this was never realised.

4to. (12) pp. Disbound. First printing of this polemical apology against Johann Friedrich Mayer. The Saxon theologian and orientalist Abraham Hinkelmann (1652-95) became deacon of St. Nikolai in Hamburg in 1685; in spite of sharp criticism by his Hamburg adversaries, who attacked him for his sympathy for Spener and Pietism, he was made head pastor of St. Catharine's in 1689. "But when in 1690 and especially in 1693 the well-known Pietist disputes broke out in Hamburg, Hinckelmann and his friends Winckler and Horbius were attacked by the notorious Johann Friedrich Mayer (a former friend from Wittenberg) and his associaties in a way that defies description" (cf. ADB 12, 461). Hinckelmann was also an exegete of Jakob Böhme's; his special contribution to scholarship is his preparation of the first complete printed Arabic Qur'an, also printed in 1694. - Contemporary handwritten note regarding the year of printing on title-page. Binding loosened; edges with slight defects. - VD 17, 3:003969B. Jöcher II, 1613.…
