Finely bound in publisher's luxurious blind-decorated, gilt- titled brown morocco, gilt-metal corner bosses to beveled boards, gauffered edges, marbled endpapers, gilt dentelles, morocco label to FEP lettered in gilt 'FROM INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION - 1862'. Lightly rubbed, gilt-metal clasp broken away and absent. An exhibition quality Victorian Neo-Gothic binding executed by Bagster and Sons for display at the Great London Exposition of 1862. The International Exhibition of 1862: The Illustrated Catalogue of the Industrial Department (p.87), issued to accompany the event, states: 'The publishers of London show together in a collective case, where may be seen some of the most luxurious volumes produced by the leading houses. The reprint of the first edition of Shakespeare; the Bibles of Bagster and Spottiswoode, are also in this collection.' Founded by Samuel Bagster the elder (1772-1851), who was succeeded in the by his sons Samuel Bagster the Younger (1800-1835) and Jonathan Bagster (1813-1872), Bagster and Sons was renowned in the early nineteenth-century for bringing a wealth of rare scholarly Bibles and Liturgical texts to the mass market, most notably Polyglot Bibles and reprints of early protestant translations by Tyndall, Wycliff and Cranmer. Their efforts in producing affordable (yet finely printed) versions of Biblical texts allowed the Bagsters to pioneer the avoidance of the monopoly printing of the Authorized version. Size: 8vo.

Paris: [Henri Estienne], 1509. Full Description: [PSALTER]. Quincuplex psalterium. Gallicum. Rhomanum. Hebraicum. Vetus. Conciliatu[m]. [Edited by Jacques Lefèvre d'Etaples]. [Paris: Henri Estienne, 1509]. First edition of the Quincuplex psalterium or the Fivefold Psalter. Large octavo (11 x 8 1/4 inches; 280 mm). [2], [1]-290 leaves. Title within woodcut border. Historiated initials. Text printed in three columns in red and black. Bound in contemporary painted boards, rebacked in calf. Spine lettered and stamped in gilt. Newer endpapers. Previous owner's bookplate on front free endpaper. Boards with some scuffing and a few holes. A few instances of finger smudging and newer repairs, but otherwise internally very clean. A very good copy. The first three Latin versions are all ascribed to Jerome; the Gallican was translated from the Greek Septuagint in the 380s, and the Hebraicum from the Hebrew in the 390s. The final two versions, the Vetus ("old") dates from the mid-fourth century and predates Jerome, and the Conciliatum ("united") was Lefèvre's own version of the text. Further editions appeared in 1513 and 1515. This work is Henri Estienne's typographical masterpiece and is considered one of the outstanding monuments of early 16th-century French typography." (Schreiber). 'Henri Estienne, disinherited for taking up printing, published over 120 works in 17 years, supporting reformist theologian Lefèvre d'Étaples by printing biblical commentaries that critiqued Sorbonne theologians, including the typographical masterpiece Quincuplex Psalterium, regarded as the 'First book of French Protestantism'.he Quincuplex Psalterium; gallicum, romanum, hebraicum, vêtus, conciliatum, published in 1509 and amended in 1513, is a typographical masterpiece that sheds light on the complex presentation of the different versions of the Psalms that Lefèvre decided to compare and discuss, highlighting the versions that seemed most relevant to him. To transcribe the texts, Estienne employs a solid humanistic Roman typeface in various sizes, perhaps due to Simon de Colines; he also uses legible Hebrew and Greek. At the La France Protestante exhibition at the Bibliothèque nationale in 1936, the Quincuplex was designated "Premier livre du protestantisme français" (First book of French Protestantism). It laid the foundations for a scholarly analysis and criticism of canonical texts." (Michael Wlassikoff, Productiontype dot com). HBS 69312. $7,500.

This is the last edition of the four great Polyglots, following that of Alcalá (1514-1517), in four languages, Antwerp (1569-1573), in five, and Paris (1628-1645), in seven. It's the most extensive edition of the great Polyglot Bible, the London Polyglot, or the Walton Polyglot, after the compiler Brian Walton, 1600-1661. According to Brunet, this edition "is the most sought after, being more complete and correct than the others, and containing nine different languages", with Ethiopian and Persian added to the seven languages of the Paris Polyglot. So it includes the text of the Bible in 9 different languages: Hebrew, Samaritan, Aramaic, Greek, Latin, Ethiopic, Syriac, Arabic, and Persian. All of the texts that are not in Latin are accompanied by Latin translations, and all are arranged side by side or one over another on the two pages open before the reader. The first three volumes contain the Old Testament. They give the Hebrew text with the Samaritan Pentateuch, the Latin Vulgate, the Greek Septuagint, the Aramaic Targum, and the Syriac and Arabic paraphrases. The fourth part contains the Apocrypha and the Triplex Targum, i.e., Targumim I and II of Jerusalem and the Persian version of Jacob ben Joseph Tawus. The fifth volume is devoted to the New Testament, printed in Greek, Latin, Syriac, Arabic, and Ethiopian. Finally, the last section contains the critical apparatus. Volume 1 is illustrated with multiple engravings in the text, a portrait of Brian Walton, a frontispiece, 2 plans, a map, and 3 engravings, all double-page except 1 plan. An extra volume by Brian Walton, the Apparatus, contains parts of the Polyglot such as codices, chronologies, proverbs, and Holy Land details. (Vol. 1 missing blank leaf after pp. 865. Spines restored, portrait and title print frayed, with creases, some browning, and staining.) A copy of the second edition, without the reference to Cromwell's protectorate in the preface. It does not contain the dedicated epistle to King Charles II but does contain the one mentioned by Brunet at the beginning of the first volume, p. 48.

Title printed in red and black within woodcut arabesque border, printer's device on final leaf. Parallel text in Hebrew, Latin, Greek, Arabic and Chaldaean Aramaic, 4 columns to a page, 41 lines. 13 woodcut floriated initials. A10 B-Z8 &8 [con]6; [200] leaves [complete]. Folio (13-1/8 x 9-3/8 inches). The Genoa Psalter, also known as the Octaplum or Quadruplex Psalter, was the first polyglot psalter to be published (and the first polyglot edition of any part of the Bible). Financed by the Oriental language scholar Bishop Agostino Giustiniani and printed in Genoa in 1516, it presents the psalms laid out in eight columns (i.e. four per page on double-page spreads): in Hebrew, a Latin paraphrase, the Vulgate Latin, the Septuagint Greek, Arabic, Chaldean Aramaic, a Latin paraphrase, and the editor's notes. "A monument of Renaissance typography, this Psalter was linguistically the most ambitious work attempted to date, and the first Polyglot work ever published. It provides the Psalms in five languages as well as a marginal scholarship based largely on rabbinic sources. The Arabic text is one of the first two texts, and the first biblical text, ever printed in this language. The Hebrew types used in this book were apparently never used again" (B. Sabin Hill, Hebraica from the Valmadonna Trust, The Piermont Morgan Library [1989] no. 18). Notably, within a lengthy editor's note to Psalm XIX, is what is considered the first printed biography of Christopher Columbus, along with a very early description of his voyage. A native son of Genoa, Giustiniani presents the discovery of the new world as a fulfilment of Biblical prophecy, appropriately glossing verse four of Psalm XIX to include his biography of Columbus: "Their sound is gone out through all the earth and their words to the end of the world." The text of the biography of Columbus, written a decade after his death, includes a brief account of his childhood and continues at length on his discovery of America. Translated from the Latin, it begins: "And so, their words have reached unto the ends of the earth, at least in our own times, in which, by the marvelous daring of Christopher Columbus of Genoa, almost another world was discovered and joined to the community of Christians. And since Columbus often declared that he was chosen by God so that through him this prophecy would be fulfilled, I did not consider it unsuitable to include his life here. Therefore, Christopher, surnamed Columbus, a Genoese by birth lived in our age and through his own efforts explored more lands and seas in a few months than almost all other mortals had done throughout all previous ages . More swiftly than the Portuguese had done, he approached new lands and new peoples, and at last penetrated regions unknown before now. The news of this matter quickly reached the King, who both out of rivalry with the Portuguese kings and a desire for such new marvels and glory that might accrue to him and his descendants after long discussions with Columbus, finally ordered two ships to be outfitted. With these, Columbus set sail from the Fortunate Islands, directing his course slightly off the western line After many days of sailing, they had covered great distances. While the others, having lost all hope, urged a change in course, Columbus persisted, asserting by reason and conjecture that continuing but a little longer might lead them to discover continents or islands. Nor was he wrong. On the following dawn, they sighted land. From this event, immense confidence arose in human minds. Later, it was learned that these were islands, and observations were made of certain peoples there, uncultivated and prone to raids on their neighbors, even devouring human flesh like wolves. There were violent encounters, yet eventually some of these islanders were brought safely to Spain, astonishing and delighting all who saw them, because they were at first timid, unfamiliar with approach, easy to persuade, and marveling at everything as new." An important and desirable work from a liturgical, linguistic, and historical perspective.
