Show moreI: First and only edition of this German (abridged) translation of Dionysius's "Contra Alchoranum", not printed until 1533. The translator, in all likelihood, was also Eppendorff. The three woodcuts on the title page show a group of Jews, Martin Luther (here captioned "Sergius the heretic"), and "Mahomet". - II: Rare first German edition of these treatises by Petrus Nannius, Juan Luis Vives, Josse de Fontanus, and Paolo Giovio. Heinrich von Eppendorff, a personal friend of Ulrich von Hutten, is known especially for his altercations with Erasmus of Rotterdam. Of particular interest is the portrait of Emperor Charles V on p. 101 (lacking in some copies). The ornamental title border shows ten portraits of emperors in medallions. - Title page of I trimmed rather closely at right edge (no loss to illustration); several ff. show slight defects or were remargined at an early date (no loss to text). Some browning and brownstaining. Main Heritage Shelves General DR485 .T73 1540 Book Item-ID: i22672382 BIB-ID: 2409396 Alchoran. Zu Strasszburg : bey Hans Schotten, MCCCCCXL [1540]. Show less

Second edition. - Second and third part of Wagner's "Delineatio provinciarum Pannoniae et Imperii Turcici", a topographical and historical work devised under the impression of the Turkish retreat from Vienna and Northen Hungary, describing the geography and politics of the Balkans and the Ottoman Empire. Contains views of Cairo, Aden, Damascus, Sissek, Nauplia, Kotor, etc. The third part is compiled from other contemporary works and treats Persia, India, and Indochina (with illustrations and interesting maps). The 12-page appendix ("Fortsetzung der Ungar- und Türckischen Chronik") is bound after the preface. - The first two parts of the work are uncommon, and the third is of great rarity; no complete copy containing of all three parts is recorded at German or international auctions since 1950 (cf. Sotheby's, Nov 13, 2008, lot 125 [all three parts, but incomplete]: 20,000 GBP). - Rather brownstained throughout due to paper; several restored tears. T. p. and several engravings of pt. 2 have remargined edge defects; wants plate 23. Binding somewhat rubbed, but the appealing blind-tooled covers are well preserved.
