Add to basketRare first edition of the principal work of Doctor Reynerius Reinier Snoy (or Renerus Snoyus, ca. 1477-1537) of Gouda, The Netherlands, a scholar-physician, diplomat, and humanist theologian of the early sixteenth century. His Psalterium Davidicum paraphrasibus brevibus illustratum was an instant success upon publication and remained popular throughout Europe for centuries, appearing in over thirty subsequent editions, the last printed as late as 1780. The present first edition, however, is very rare, as it has only been recorded in three institutions, and no copies have appeared on the market since 1971.The Psalterium Davidicum was conceived during a period of forced seclusion at Zandenburg, when a catastrophic dike breach in 1532 inundated much of Duiveland. While his patron supervised the draining of the polders, Snoy spent those months in quiet reflection, completing his manuscript on 29 May 1533. The Antwerp printer Michiel Hillen van Hoochstraten published it two years later, in 1535.In the present work, Snoy's biblical humanism shines through. His paraphrases of the Psalms seek to uncover the spiritual essence of Scripture, a theme resonant with the Erasmian ideal of inner piety. The tripartite moral journey of the Christian soul, recognition of sin, growth in virtue, and perfection in eternal life, forms the structure of his commentary.With a bookplate mounted on the front pastedown ("Ex Libris U.P."), a 17th- or 18th-century annotation naming Thomas Sinton and Thomas Croft on the recto of the third free flyleaf, a small annotation on the verso of the same leaf, two small annotations on the title page, two leaves of manuscript waste used as flyleaves, probably fragments of a Latin biblical commentary. The binding has been professionally restored, with lossed filled in at the foot of the spine and on the back, boards are somewhat rubbed, affecting the clarity of the blind tooling. Brown stains on some of the leaves. Otherwise in good condition.l Abels, "Reynier Snoy uit de slagschaduw van Erasmus", in Tidinge (2016), pp. 171-176; Nijhoff & Kronenberg 1907; USTC 437798 (3 copies). Contemporary blind-tooled calf in a panel design, sewn on 4 supports with the corresponding raised bands on the spine, a central panel on both boards surrounded by a decorative frame with portraits in medaillions, with remnants of 2 pairs of green closing ties.

The Benedictine monastery of Sankt Stephan in Würzburg had its own bindery, active between around 1485 and 1516 (the monastery was dissolved c.1803). The elegant printing, with the text of the Psalter in a distinctive large font to allow space for Bruno's extensive commentary alongside it, is ascribed to Georg Reyser, who was the printer for the diocese of Würzburg from 1479; he also produced liturgies for the use of Würzburg, almanacks, and other official publications. The bishop of Würzburg at this time was Rudolf von Scherenberg, a long-term incumbent of the episcopal throne, from 1466 until his death in 1495; he was an active administrator who consolidated the finances of the diocese and, in particular, sought to standardise the liturgy. This commentary is attributed to Bruno of Würzburg (c.10051045), a Franconian nobleman appointed as bishop in 1034; it is an assembly of extracts from commentaries written by the Church Fathers as well as Bede, and in particular by Cassiodorus. In common with other eleventh-century commentaries on the Psalms, it contains anti-Semitic interpretations of numerous passages, which were subsequently used to inflame anti-Jewish feeling; in 1488 Rudolf expelled the Jews from his diocese.Provenance: 1. Frederic Perkins (17801860) of Chipstead Place, Kent, brother of the bibliophile and brewer Henry Perkins (whose collection included two Gutenberg bibles and several books printed on vellum). Frederic's library was sold at Sotheby's on 10 July 1889 (lot 282, sold to Ridler). 2. John Vertue (18261900), appointed the first Roman Catholic Bishop of Portsmouth in 1882.

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.

Add to basketSecond(?) edition, in the original Latin, of the important and influential extensive commentaries on each of the 150 psalms, by the Spanish Dominican cardinal Juan de Torquemada (ca. 1388-1468). He brings together quotations from the Church Fathers (his sources include Chrysostom, Augustine, Cassiodorus and Remigius) and discusses the meaning of psalms for devotion to Christ and for the Church generally.Torquemada finished his commentaries in 1463 and dedicated them to Pope Pius II, but what is generally considered the first printed edition appeared posthumously, a quarto by Ulrich Han in Rome, dated 4 October 1470. Though the present Augsburg folio edition is undated, Schüssler set up his printing office after 22 January 1470 but well before 28 June 1470 (when he completed a book of 98½ edition-sheets), and one copy of the present edition has a note of its purchase in 1471, so it must have been printed in 1470 or 1471 and is generally believed to have appeared after Han's Rome edition of 4 October 1470. The book is usually reported under the title given in square brackets above, based on the colophon of the 1470 Rome edition: "Expositio brevis & utilis super toto psalterio".With a manuscript note and underscoring in red ink on m5v marking the resumption of the commentary on psalm 119 after the accidentally inserted passage from that for psalm 118. With a few bifolia separated at the gutter fold but still firmly attached to the bookblock, a small and faint marginal water-stain in the lower outside corner of quires c and d, an occasional very faint marginal smudge, otherwise in fine condition, with the paper still crisp and only slightly trimmed.

This edition represents the mature monastic liturgical tradition of the Cistercians in the post-war period, preserving the structured weekly distribution of the Psalter alongside hymns, canticles, suffrages, and the Office of the Dead. Produced by the official monastic press of the Order, the volume reflects the characteristic clarity, austerity, and functional precision of Cistercian liturgical printing. Surviving examples in well-preserved condition are increasingly uncommon, particularly in larger formats intended for choir or community use. This copy presents in very good condition, retaining its structural integrity and usability. A desirable collector's item for those specializing in Cistercian liturgy, monastic chant traditions, and twentieth-century ecclesiastical printing. A scarce and increasingly sought-after monastic Psalter from one of the most historically disciplined orders in the Church.

(8), 427, (1) pp. First complete edition of the much celebrated Ethiopic Psalter edited by the great orientalist Hiob Ludolf, the founder of European Ethiopic (Geez) studies. This is the first complete edition of the Book of Psalms printed in Ethiopic characters, accompanied by a Latin translation and extensive philological notes ? it is widely regarded as being a high point in Ethiopian studies. The work is one of the earliest examples of a critical edition of a Biblical text in Ethiopic and remains a cornerstone in the history of Ethiopic printing and European biblical philology. ?The first printed Ethiopic text (not by accident the psalter, the most commonly read Christian Ethiopic book) dates from 1513, with a second four-language edition in 1518, both edited by Potken in Rome (1513) and Cologne (1518). A few Ethiopic texts were also printed in the seventeenth century, but it was only with Hiob Ludolf (1624?1704) that text editing was carried out in such a way that it can be methodologically evaluated. Ludolf?s edition of the psalter [The present] still stands out as an advanced example of method in some respects: Ludolf based his edition on three manuscripts and the two available prints, and was well aware of questions of normalisation and standardisation. He did not hesitate to reintegrate ex nihilo missing verses or hemistichs when they were attested by the Greek and Hebrew text and missing in the Ethiopic version, where he explained their absence as due to the inaccuracy of the copyist, so that, ultimately, he fundamentally based his edition on his own iudicium (Ludolf 1701, 2v?3v). Nonetheless, this edition of the psalter, also furnished with a commentary, is still of great importance because of the critical comparison with the Greek and Hebrew texts on which it is based. Ludolf?s works represent the high point in Ethiopian studies within the context of oriental studies in the modern age? (Roelli, Handbook of Stemmatology) Hiob Ludolf Hiob Ludolf (1624?1704), also known as Job Leutholf, was a German orientalist, born at Erfurt often referred to as "the most illustrious name in Ethiopic scholarship". While searching in Rome for some documents at the request of the Swedish Court, he became friends with Abba Gorgoryos, a monk from the Ethiopian province of Amhara and acquired from him an intimate knowledge of the Ethiopian language of Amhara. In 1690 he was appointed president of the Collegium Imperiale Historicum. Darlow & Moule 3571.Brunet IV 921.
