Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. First. First Aldine edition. Venice: in aedibus Aldi, et Andreae Soceri (the heirs of Aldus Manutius the Elder and Andrea Torresano the Elder); October 1518. Octavo (6" x 3 13/16", 152mm x 97mm). [Full collation available.] Bound in contemporary Venetian paneled calf with two pairs of silk ties. With four knotted "Greek style" tools in the center panel. On the spine, three raised bands. Ink manuscript to the fore-edge of the text-block: "POMP. MELA. ET SOLINVS." Small losses along the lower edge, with scuffs and the odd spot of soiling. The corners bumped and the ties perished. The text-block remarkably fresh, with occasional sidelining in ink. A reference in ink manuscript to Pliny in the margin of fol. 119r. Collated complete (including both the q8 and G3 blanks) against the register and UCLA. Ex-libris of Emilio Pittaluga to the title-page, completed in ink manuscript "ottimo esemplare." Bookplate of T. Kimball Brooker laid in. Pomponius Mela (d. AD 45) and Caius (Gaius) Julius Solinus (fl. ca. AD 225) together were the twin stars of Roman (i.e., Latin) ancient geography through the medieval period, and far more influential than Ptolemy, whose Geographical Guidance was largely inaccessible to Continental scholars before it was translated into Latin in 1406. A frequent source of Pliny (whose Historia naturalis has geographical components but belongs properly to a different genre), Mela's De situ orbis bridges the gap between the Greek geographers (Eratosthenes, Ptolemy) and his successors. Solinus wrote his De mirabilibus mundi (On the wonders of the world) -- also called the Polyhistor (very learned), as here -- in the first half of the third century of the current era. The works of Mela and Solinus fill a little more than half the volume (through fol. 127). Four shorter works follow, making the volume a useful collection of geographical works. The first is the Itinerarium -- itinerary -- carried out under Emperor Antoninus Pius (AD 86-161), which lists in order the places along a road as they stretched across the Roman Empire. Vibius Sequester (ca. AD 400) provides a literary parallel; conventionally titled De fluminibus, fontibus, lacubus, nemoribus, paludibus, montibus, gentibus per litteras (fol. 191ff.) it gathers the place-names mentioned in Classical literature -- particularly Vergil and Ovid. Publius Victor is a confected Classical author, made to provide authorship for a XVc (first published 1505) treatise De regionibus urbis Romae liber (fol. 201ff.), which describes the neighborhoods (regiones) of ancient Rome. The volume finishes with the poem of Dionysius Periegetes (sometimes called, as here, Dionysius Afer -- born as he was in Libya in perhaps the AD IIc), a member of the "Second Sophistic," composed in Greek and translated by Priscian into Latin as De orbis situ (fol. 215ff.). These final treatises speak particularly to the lineage of the work through the press of Aldus Manutius (Aldo Manuzio, ca. 1450-1515), the great Venetian humanist-printer whom we have largely to thank for the dissemination of texts in small formats. Thomas Kimball Brooker (Kim, b. 1939) is an American industrialist with a life-long scholarly interest in books. To wit, his Harvard Business School Master's thesis was titled Rare Books as a Hedge against Devaluation and Inflation; he went on to get an MA in Art History and a PhD, both from the University of Chicago. He is the most significant collector -- certainly among the living, perhaps ever, or at the least on par with the likes of J.P. Morgan -- of early printed books, with a particular focus on Aldus Manutius. His collection is being dispersed by Sotheby's in a series of eight auctions, the Bibliotheca Brookeriana, from 2023 into 2026 (to include his the formidable reference library). The present volume was lot 245 in part II (the Aldine Collection D-M) 18 October 2024 in New York. Adams M 1053; Edit16 46864; Renouard, Alde 83/6; UCLA 171; USTC 841939.…

Zustand: Good. 0. Cm. 19,5, cc. (50). Edizione curata da Pietro Mareno Aleandro (Castelfranco Veneto 1470-1540), il cui nome figura nella dedica datata 1505 e così intestata: âPetrus Mar. Alexander ex Corneliano p. Ioanni Baptiste Baldo antiquarioâ. Alcuni magnifici capilettera xilografici. Legatura novecentesca in mezza pelle con titoli in oro al dorso e belle impressioni a secco di stile monastico ai piatti. Trascurabile alone limitato al margine bianco della parte inziale e finale, peraltro carte piuttosto fresche con caratteri nitidamente impressi. Esemplare, anche data l'altissima epoca, ben conservato. Beda, anche noto come Beda il Venerabile (672-673 circa â"735), fu un monaco e scrittore anglosassone. Discepolo curioso e attento, si formò nell'abbazia di Monkwearmouth-Jarrow. Fu autore di numerose opere, tra cui si segnala per la sua importanza l'Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum, la quale gli valse il titolo di «Padre della storia dell'Inghilterra». Nel 1899 venne proclamato santo e dottore della Chiesa da papa Leone XIII. Intorno al 703 Beda, da sempre interessato alla dottrina delle sei età del mondo, propose nel suo De temporibus un'innovativa periodizzazione della storia universale. Questa nuova cronologia, in netta contrapposizione con le credenze dell'epoca, gli costò nel 708 un'accusa di eresia. L'autore, certo della sua innocenza, si dimostrò sensibile a queste critiche, nate da ignoranza e superstizione, e rimase amareggiato dallo scarso sostegno ricevuto dagli amici in questa difficile circostanza. L'edizione include anche il âDe regionibus urbis Rome libellus aureusâ, trattatello dedicato alla città di Roma dallo storico latino Publius Victor. Rarissima edizione stampata a Trino dal celebre editore Giovanni da Tridino detto Tacuino (1482-1541). Cfr. Iccu; BMC, 77.

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. SECOND GIUNTA EDITION (1st 1519). A tall, unsophisticated copy, in its original limp vellum binding (vellum stained, lacking ties, short split to upper hinge). The text is in very good condition with intermittent foxing, heavier in some gatherings. A compendium of ancient geographical texts, including descriptions of the known world by Pomponius Mela, Dionysius Periegetes, and Gaius Julius Solinus. Shorter texts include a catalogue of the regions within the city of Rome, "De regionibus urbis Romae" by "Publius Victor". The work is possibly a literary forgery of the 15th century, presented as the work of a newly-discovered author. The name was coined by Pomponius Leto of the Roman Academy. The volume was edited by Antonio Francino (1480- after 1537), a scholar of great talent, who taught in the households of important Florentines, and who produced, starting in 1517, numerous editions of Greek and Latin authors for the Giunta firm. Francino's opening letter in this volume is addressed to the twenty-year old Pietro Vettori, who would himself become a philologist of great renown. Pomponius Mela's Description of the World: "A generation earlier than the work of the natural historian Pliny, under the reign of Claudius or Caligula, we find the first Latin author whom, to the best of our knowledge, we can call a pure geographer and whose work has come down to us complete. This is Pomponius Mela, a Spaniard from Tingentera, near Gibraltar, whose Chronographia, "Description of Places" in three books, is preserved. The Chronographia describes the world, taking the Mediterranean as its basic point of reference. It proceeds counterclockwise from the Strait of Gibraltar, whither it returns at the end of the description."(Conte) "After a short prooemium, in which he dwells upon the importance and difficulties of his undertaking, he proceeds to define the cardinal points, and to explain the division of the world into two hemispheres and five zones. The northern hemisphere is that portion of the Earth which is known, and is separated by the impassable torrid zone from the southern hemisphere, which is altogether unknown, and is the abode of the Antichthones. The northern, known hemisphere is completely surrounded by the ocean, which communicates with the four great seas: one on the north, the Caspian; two on the south, the Persian and the Arabian; and one in the west, The Mediterranean, with its subdivisions. Next follows a description of the three continents: Asia, Europe, and Africa, and an enumeration of its inhabitants. These preliminaries being discussed, the author enters upon more minute details, and makes a complete circuit of the known world. "Thus commencing at the straits of Hercules with Mauritania, he passes on in regular order to Numidia, Africa Proper, the Cyrenaica, Egypt, Arabia, Syria, Phoenicia, Cilicia, Pamphylia, Lycia, Caria, Ionia, Aeolis, Bithynia, Paphlagonia, the Asiatic nations on the Euxine and the Palus Maeotis, European Scythia, Thrace, Macedonia, Greece, the Peloponinesus, Epirus, Illyricum, Italy from the head of the Adriatic round by Magna Graecia to the Ligurian Gulf, Gallia Narbonnensis, and the eastern coast of Spain. (Hispaniae ora citerior.) The tour of the Mediterranean being now completed, a chapter is devoted to its islands. Passing beyond the Straits, we stretch along the western coast of Spain (Hispaniae ora exterior), the western coast of Gaul (Galliae ora exterior), the islands of the Northern Ocean, Germany, Sarmatia, the shores of the Caspian, the Eastern Ocean and India, the Mare Rubrum and its two gulfs, the Persian and Arabian, Aethiopia, and those portions of Aethiop a and Mauritania bordering upon the Atlantic, which brings him round to the point from which he started. It will be seen from the above sketch that the existence of the northern countries of Europe and of the northern and eastern countries of Asia were unknown, it being supposed that these regions formed part of the ocean, which, in like manner, was supposed to occupy the whole of Central and Southern Africa."(Smith, Dictionary of Greek and Roman biography) Solinus: "Gaius Julius Solinus, who probably lived between the middle and the end of the third century, was concerned with geography, though not in the modern sense of the term. His work is entitled Collectanea Rerum Memorabilium, but in the Middle Ages, when it was widely read, it was also known as Polyhistor, to emphasize the great number of curiosities that were collected there. The work is a careful compilation from many literary sources, chiefly Pliny the Elder but also Pomponius Mela and Suetonius, along with various other geographical treatises that are no longer extant. Solinus noted down all the unusual things he came across when reading these works, about peoples and their customs, animals, and plants. "The work opens with a full treatment of Rome and Roman history from the kings to the principate of Augustus. The area examined is then extended to Italy, and then to Greece and the Black Sea, Germany, Gaul, Britain, and Spain; this counterclockwise tour ends with Africa, Arabia, Asia Minor, India, and the kingdom of the Parthians, in accordance with a systematic geographical plan that is one of the most characteristic features of the work. It enjoyed considerable success in the Middle Ages, when it was also read and studied as a summary of the excessively vast Naturalis Historia of Pliny the Elder. It did not, however, altogether replace it, with the result that it enjoyed, so to speak, a success parallel to that of its more illustrious predecessor."(Conte) "Referring to the reading of Pliny and Solinus in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, Anthony Grafton writes: 'Generations of readers thrilled, like Desdemona listening to Othello, at these tales of strange creatures, foods, and burial customs - and were no doubt stimulated by them to see the inhabitants of strange lands as literally outlandish, less than civilized or even less than human.' Charles Raymond Beazle.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. 8vo, six parts in one, separate half-titles, ff. 233 (iii). Italic letter, Aldine device to t-p and verso of last. Light fingermarks to lower blank outer corner of t-p and to blank margins of a couple of ll., small ink smudge to one fol., very light waterstain to upper blank corner of three gatherings, slight yellowing to a few ll. A very good copy in contemporary morocco, covers double blind ruled to a panel design, inner border with blind ropework tools, two arabesque ornaments, spine with raised bands, blind cross-hatched decoration in compartments, missing ties. Early ms. autographs "Frachet" to front paste-down, occasional contemporary Latin marginalia mainly to first part. Old paper label to head of spine '510'. Attractive copy of this Aldine collection of classical works on geography, in a lovely, very well-preserved contemporary northern-Italian binding. The arabesque ornaments on the covers of the volume, and their variations, were predominantly used in Venice at the beginning of the 16th century (See Needham 35; De Marinis 1797bis, 1921), but they also appear on Milanese bindings (combined with ropework border: see Davis III, 244; bound for Jean Grolier: Needham 41). Ropework decorations are typical of northern Italy, but the ornate border on this binding is a particularly intricate and fine example. Pomponius Mela (d. c. 45) was the first Roman geographer and his 'De situs orbis' is the earliest preserved treatise on geography in Latin. "Though the work was largely a borrowing from Greek sources (), it was unique among the ancient geographies in that it divided the Earth, which Mela placed at the centre of the universe, into five zones: a northern frigid zone, a northern temperate zone, a torrid zone, a southern temperate zone, and a southern frigid zone." (Encyclopedia Britannica). The treatise focuses on the known world, outlining a journey across North Africa, Asia and finally Europe. The contemporary marginalia to this work are interesting: a reader corrected the spelling of several geographical names and annotated different readings on the basis of other sources such as Strabo and Ptolemy. 'Polihistor' is by the grammarian Julius Solinus (c. 210-258). Also known as 'De mirabilibus mundi', 'On the wonders of the world', this is an influential compilation largely drawing from Mela, Pliny and Suetonius of the most curious facts concerning the peoples, regions, plants and animals of the world, beginning from Rome and moving on to the Mediterranean, northern Africa, Near East and India. 'Itinerarium Antonini', by an unknown author, can be described as a 'road map' of the Roman Empire in the III century AD, containing a register of all the stations along the major roads and their distances. This is followed by Vibius Sequester's alphabetical list of geographical names mentioned by Latin poets (Virgil, Ovid, Lucan and Silius Italicus), comprising rivers, springs, lakes, forests, marshes, mountains and peoples. 'De regionibus Urbis Romae" is a brief list of all the important buildings, streets and bridges that can be found in different areas of Rome, spuriously attributed to a fictitious Publius Victor. Last in the collection is a Latin verse translation of Dionysius Periegetes' 'Description of the world', by the grammarian Priscian. This collection was edited Aldus' brother-in-law, Gian Francesco Torresani d'Asola (c. 1498-1558). USTC 841939; EDIT 16 CNCE 46864; Adams M1053; BM STC It.
