4to, ff.[6]; remains of red tab and small closed tear to fore-edge of first leaf, a little staining to last blank page; a very good copy, disbound.First, very rare, edition, of Sbruglio's Latin poems addressed to Maximilianus Transylvanus, published in the year that Charles V became Holy Roman Emperor. A native of Cividale in northern Italy, Sbruglio (c.1480 after 1525) studied and taught at Wittenberg (where the rector compared him to Ovid), Frankfurt, Cologne, and Ingolstadt, before being appointed poet and historiographer to the Emperor Maximilian I. 'Wherever he went he produced verses in honour of local princes and dignitaries. Reaction to them was mixed: Mutianus, Eobanus Hessus, Hermannus Buschius and Hutten were critical of Sbruglio and his talent but Erasmus, Zasius, Bonifacius Amerbach, Pirckheimer, and Vadianus showed appreciation' (Contemporaries of Erasmus III p.211). Erasmus made Sbruglio one of the speakers in his colloquy Convivium poeticum (1523). Maximilianus Transylvanus (c.1490-1538) was personal secretary to the Emperor Charles V and produced the earliest published account of Magellan's circumnavigation of the world.The poems collected here include a number of acrostics, spelling out 'Carolus rex' (for Emperor Charles V), 'Ferdinandus princeps optimus' (for Charles's brother), and 'Maximilianus'. Also included is an ode to the seventh-century saint Arnulf of Metz, with an allusion to the legend of him throwing his bishop's ring into the Moselle river.BM STC German p.781; VD16 S 2060. Very rare institutionally and in commerce: only the BL copy on Library Hub; one US copy on OCLC (University of Pennsylvania). Language: Latin.

[99] of [100], A-B8 C-D6 E-M8/6 N8 O1-7, lacking final blank as usual, on thick high-quality paper, small 4to, (208 x 153mm), recased in antique vellum (mid-20thC), endpapers renewed (but not modern). [An important collection of devotional works Interesting blind impression.] A very good, well-margined copy, crisp and clean, of the second edition of this collection of most interesting devotional and theological works, spanning subjects as varied as virtues, the Creation, apparitions, deathbed absolution and a good death. First published in Venice in 1480, it is 'the earliest instance of a work receiving an ecclesiastical "approbatio"' in Italy (Witcombe, p.60). This is the third work printed by Heinrich Knoblochtzer in Heidelberg, and the only edition of a work by Johannes Carthusiensis that was not printed in Italy. The works of the Paduan monk Johannes Carthusiensis (or Giovanni di Dio, Certosino, fl.1480s) were mostly first printed by Jenson in Venice. This collection comprises his 'Nosce te', 'Corona senum', 'De immensa caritate Dei', 'De humilitate interior et patientia vera' and 'Flos vitae'. It begins with a four-line poem by the 15th-century theologian Jodocus Gallicus, celebrating 'Nosce te', which features a dozen woodcut Greek letters. There follow a few pages detailing the ecclesiastical approbation and sundry further celebratory comments by major theologians of the time. 'Nosce te' is a devotional work on Christian behaviour, based on excerpts from the Scriptures (e.g., the conversion of Mary Magdalene). Its chapters deal with continence, exterior and interior virtues, disobedience, divine authority, charity, temptation and contemplation. A few lines criticize a mysterious local (Paduan?) figure called Porcellano, lost in the mists of history, whom the author heard utter prophecies. 'Corona senum' discusses in short sections the Creation, microcosm, microcosm, the element, the planets and their influence on the body, Noah's ark, the progeny of Abraham, virtues and vices, and divine visions and apparitions. The very short 'De humilitate' focuses on defeating the temptations of 'superbia' and on the temptations of the humble, caused by laziness (derived from spending too much time meditating), as well as sadness, affliction and 'infinite anguish' from solitude. 'Flos vite' is concerned preparing the sick to dying (confession, sacraments, etc.), including the required religious formulas and litanies, with a special focus on religious. Most interesting are the sections listing papal and episcopal cases, i.e., situations in which absolution is requested for serious crimes such as simony, coercion of the confessor to provide absolution, witchcraft, incest, sodomy and usury, as well as dispensation from vows. The last part discusses the passage to death, including masses, services, formulas and litanies. On the title is a very interesting blind impression of five lines which appears to contain actual text. It is also present on three digitised copies. We were not able to trace the text of the blind impression in the formes of the first gathering.
