Canada | Montreal | McGill University | Éloy | Nicolas François Joseph | Dictionnaire historique de la Médecine, contenant son Origine, ses Progrés, ses Révolutions, ses Sectes & son Etat chez différens Peuples, ce que l’on a dit des Dieux ou Héros anciens de cette Science: l’Histoire des plus célébres Médecins, Philosophes ou Personnes savantes de toutes Nations qui ont concouru à son avancement, des fameux Anatomistes, Chirurgiens, Botanistes & Chimistes, avec l’Exposition de leurs Sentimens & de leurs Découvertes, & le Catalogue de leurs principaux Ouvrages, le tout d’après ce que les meilleurs Auteurs ont écrit sur cette Matiére. [Two vols.] | Liége & Frankfurt: J.F. Bassompierre, 1755 | WZ 260 E485d 1755 | [A remarkable and important survival: this is the author’s own copy, heavily annotated in preparation for the enormously revised and enlarged second edition of his great work of medical biographies. Garrison-Morton 6704 describes the second edition of 1778 in four volumes as “the earliest exhaustive collection of medical biographies” (& erroneously gives the date of our first edition as 1775). Éloy (1714-88), Belgian physician and historian, took his medical degree at Louvain and did further studies in Paris. Upon returning to his native city of Mons, he established a successful practice and became physician to Prince Charles Alexandre de Lorraine, governor of the Austrian Netherlands. Éloy has made here numerous kinds of corrections, including “x-ing” out the old title-page and providing an entirely new title: “Dictionnaire historique, Bibliographique, et typographique de la Médecine et des Médecins, Anatomistes, Chirurgiens, Botanistes et Chymistes distingués, par des connaissances supérieures et dans la République des lettres, avec les ouvrages de Chaconne. Seconde édition.” Nearly every page has corrections, deletions, and/or additions and many are very heavily revised. Our copy of the first edition is, essentially, the working manuscript for the expanded second edition, a work which appeared 23 years later. Very good set preserved in a box. In Vol. II, leaves L1-5 cut out, probably by Éloy himself.] |

BIBLIOTEKA GŁÓWNA W WARSZAWIE – University of Warsaw Library’s, the 19th century stamp. The first Polish translation of a part of the New Testament was printed in Königsberg by Aleksander Augezdecki, a Czech emigrant, on Jan Seklucjan’s initiative (ca. 1510–1578), who was a writer and Lutheran preacher originating from Greater Poland. The part was translated by a native of the Dobrzyń Land, Stanisław Murzynowski (ca. 1528–1553), also author of the co-bounded Orthographia polska. Visible hand-written dedication by Seklucjan „Lege et candido pectore iudica” („Read and judge with a pure heart”). It was addressed to Jan Malecki-Sandecki (ca. 1490–1567), originally from Lesser Poland, Lutheran minister and printer in Ełk, against whom he competed for the favour of Albrecht Hohenzollern. Malecki, planning his own edition of the New Testament, was very critical of Murzynowski’s translation. Having added numerous Polish and Latin marginalia, he sent it to the duke. A unique revision copy from the Royal Castle library was acquired in 1923 for the BUW by Samuel Bogumił Linde, its first director. (this text is from „The catalogue of the exhibition from the collection of the University of Warsaw Library as part of the nationwide celebration of the 500 years of the Reformation […]”, Warsaw 2017, p. 72). This edition has been elaborated in detail (including handwritten marginalia) by prof. Izabela Winiarska-Górska.

United States | Princeton | Princeton University | Mignault | Claude | [Collection of humanistic texts and editions of the classics, with manuscript notes taken by Gerardus de Mayres from lectures by Claude Mignault.] | Paris, n.v., 1550-1572 | Rare Books: PA260 .xC6 1550 | [“A collection of 23 Latin, Greek, and humanist texts, all heavily annotated, the annotations in ink almost obscure the printed text. The author of these notes was the great scholar Claude Mignault who in the fifteenseventies taught classical languages at the College de Reims of the University of Paris. Mignault had made a name for himself by composing the classical commentary to Alciati’s Book of Emblems, a popular work that was often reprinted. But the works in this volume are all concerned with classical scholarship. Most of them are Latin: the rhetorical and philosophical works of Cicero, Pliny, Horace, Justinus, Ausonius. Of Greek works, some smaller ones, by Lucian, Plutarch, Demosthenes, and Isocrates are included. Mignault’s special subjects were Rhetoric and the Belles-Lettres. His notes are mainly exegetical, he emphasizes the principal rules of rhetoric, and he analyzes the works according to argumentum, to the different genres of orations, to the disposition of the contents, and to the laws that Aristotle and Cicero applied to rhetorical works. His approach is not philological, he seems to be mainly interested in the philosophical aspects in his literary appreciation. There can be no doubt that this was the essence of his lectures. Some of the investigations recorded in these manuscripts led to further studies and to books on the subjects of Cicero’s oratory, the Epistles of Horace, and Ausonitis. An edition of Horace’s Epistles, with the commentary of Mignault, was published in Paris in 1575 (Schweiger II, 426). The interpretations are added in the margins, on occasional blank leaves, and between the lines of the printed books. Some complete texts are included, very often only a few pages served the author’s purpose. Most of these printed texts have an unusual feature in common, the editions are unknown to the bibliographers. The editions come from the presses of Denys du Pre, Gabriel Buon, Andre Wechel, Maurice de la Porte, Thomas Brumen, and Jean Morel. All these books were printed in the years from 1550 to 1572. The reason that none of them have survived and are practically unknown today is probably the fact that they were intended for academic lectures or for the use of schools, and were read to pieces. There is, however, one exception: Pomponius Laetus’ De Romanis Magistratibus, Paris, Mathieu David for Jean de Roigny, 1552 (Adams P 1841). Of this, other copies are extant. The twenty-second piece, also unrecorded, a ’Compendium in Universam Dialecticam, ex Rivio aliisque recentioribus collectum’, is inscribed: “Explicatum fuit a doctissimo viro Cla. Minoe . . . vixisti in po. rhemensium 1572”. The same page has the signature Claudius Minais, and underneath the signature G Mayres, supposedly one of his pupils. The writing throughout the whole work is uniform, and very probably that of Mignault himself, but it is also possible that it is written by his pupil Mayres, after his dictation. The volume is an important document, demonstrating the way the humanities were taught in the 16th century, and very few documents of this kind exist. — Mignault, in his later years, became a jurist, was appointed ’Avocat du Roy au Baillage d’Estampes’, and was entrusted with the reform of the study of law at the University of Paris.” – William Salloch.] |
