Show moreFirst Latin edition of Pietro Bizzarri's "Historia della guerra fatta in Ungheria dall' intuitissimo imperatore dei Christiani contro quello deui Turchi" (Lyons, Roville, 1568/69). Contains interesting accounts of the Turkish wars in Hungary during 1564-68, of the siege of Malta, and about the French conquests in Florida and Canada. Also contains passages on Transylvania: "Caeterum paucae urbes, oppida vero complura, non obscuri nominis, in quibus Cibinium, Brassovia, Colosium, Bistricia, & plura alia a Germanis, quos nos Saxones appellamus, condita, & habita, nec rara passim, aedificia cernuntur. Eius solum variis in locis auriferos surculos, & glebulas aureas passim gignit [...] Hanc duae cingunt Walachiae, Transalpina, & Moldavia, illa Danubio, haec mari Euxino admota" (p. 8). "Other passages show that Bizzarri also considered the problem of the meaning of history [...] The second part is a checkered conglomerate of various notes, not without historical value. Bizzarri was especially interested in more or less credible reports of celestial phenomena" (cf. Göllner). - The Italian historian Pietro Bizzarri (1530-83) from Sassoferrato lived in France and England for a time, served the Elector August of Saxony for ten years, and spent most of his life in Antwerp (cf. Jöcher). - Occasional brownstaining (especially to title). Modern binding using old stamp material (fleuronnée stamps forming a border and a central ornament). Contains what is clearly an independent text of Ribaut's Florida narrative: begins p. 240. Main Heritage Shelves General DB924 .B59 1573 Book Item-ID: i16598751 BIB-ID: 1494595 Show less

Metelli ... epistola ad Ant. Augustinum. Only German-printed edition. - Fundamental source for the history of the reign of King Manuel I, "the Fortunate", under whom Portugal discovered the sea route to India and built a colonial empire in the Indian Ocean. Bishop Jerónimo Osório (1506-80), the "Portuguese Cicero", first published his work (based on the chronicle by Damio de Goes) in 1571. It includes an account of the voyages of Vasco da Gama as well as sections on "Arabicae expeditiones fructus", the Arabs' navigational skill, the various sieges of Aden, etc. Also recounts how Mochrin, son-in-law to the prince of Mecca, wrested the island Bahrain ("large, adorned with many magnificent buildings, and very populous, as great numbers of merchants resorted there in matters of business") from the Kingdom of Hormuz, the dominant regional power of the time, and the Portuguese under Sequeire were persuaded to win the island back for the latter. - Title page dust-soiled and relaid; some underscoring in text. Cancelled library bookplate of University College, Oxford, as well as that of Edward John Payne, MA. Ms. ownership (1819) at end of text (William Walsh, "I bought this book at Bath"). Overall a very good tight copy of this book on Portuguese exploration in the Middle East. Main Heritage Shelves General DP604 .O86 1576 Book Item-ID: i16875333 BIB-ID: 1510952 Show less
