Show moreBound in vellum with gold tooling by Leighton, Brewer St. W. Third incunabular edition of the principal work of Albumasar (d. 886), the Arabian mathematician and astronomer whose works exercised a profound influence upon the medieval world view in the occident. His "Flores" are probably extracted from "De magnis coniunctionibus" (cf. DSB I, 35, 1); according to Houzeau/Lancaster, no Arabic original text or manuscript is known. The woodcuts show allegories of the planets and the zodiac, illustrating this astrological florilegium. - First 3 ff. show a faint brownstain; otherwise only very insignificantly browned. A very clean, crisp copy in a beautifully restrained modern binding by Philippe Belz, who took over the Niedrée shop in 1860 and retired in 1880.

Introductorium in astronomiam ... octo continens libros partiales. [colophon:] Venice, Jacobius Pentius de Leucho for Melchior Sessa, 1506. 1„l(bin.) + 7 tit. + 1„ + 124 (unpaginated) + 1l.„ + 1l. (bind.). 8 vo, with fine woodcut vignette on title of a black-faced astronomer in a landscape reading the stars an astrolable and dividers, 43 small woodcut emblems of the planets and signs of the zodiac in text, 2 astronomical diagrams in text, numerous fine woodcut initials, printer's device at colophon; without the final blank; moder vellum. 'The Great Introduction' Kitab al-Mudkhal al-kabir, the most important work of the Arabic astrologer most frequently quoted in the West. It contains an astrological theory of the tides (Abu Mas'shar's justification of astrology resting on the manifest influence of the moon in this connection) which was the principal source of the Middle Ages for speculation on the subject (see Duhem, Le systeme du monde, II, pp. 369-386). This is the concise translation of Hermann of Carinthia, made in 1140 and first printed by Ratdolt in Augsburg in 1489. The title vignette in this edition is one of the best known Renaissance representation of an astronomer. On Hermann, see: Charles Burnett, 'Arabic into Latin in twelfth-century Spain: the works of Hermann of Carinthia' in Mittellateinsches Fahrbuch, 1978, pp. 100-34.
