Show moreFirst complete edition, including the fourth part which contains 42 woodcuts of oriental plants unknown till then, among them the Rauwolfia (important to pharmaceutics). Rauwolf, an Augsburg physician, travelled to the Near East to collect and describe the flora of the region. His account of the three-year journey provides details not only of the plants he encountered but also of the people and customs and of the difficulties of travel, containing many authentic and reliable observations. His reports also include the first printed account of coffee as a social drink (cf. Hünersdorff/H. II, 1221). "He was the first modern botanist to collect and describe the flora of the regions east of the Levantine coast" (Norman). The Burrell copy of the 1582 edition - still without the fourth part with the illustrations - fetched GBP 16,200 (Sothebys, 5 Oct 99, lot 677). - Washed throughout and heavily restored in places.

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).

Show moreVery rare German translation of the Latin pamphlet "Omnia quae gesta sunt in oriente inter Sophin & maximum Turcarum Soldanum" with beautiful title woodcut. The typographical arrangement of the title page departs in several details from that described by Göllner (with fig. 6) and the VD 16 (BSB copy). The account begins in June 1516 and ends in July 1517, but also includes Sultan Selim's visit to Jerusalem in January 1518. In June 1516 the Sultan began a campagin against Sultan al-Ghuri of Egypt, allied with Shah Ismail I of Persia; in August he took Damascus and Cairo. "Sultan Selim wird zum Schutzherrn von Mekka und Medina und versucht auch, den Charakter eines Kampfes für den Islam zu geben" (Göllner 115). - Evenly browned throughout; slight tears to edge and gutter.
