beginning of text printed in red, some woodcut initials. Hf. calf. 500.—
H. 7368. Pr. 1622. BMC. II, 336.
Very rare and early edition of the celebrated „Summa confessorum“, one of the
most important handbooks and manuals of the MA. It was compiled ab. 1300 by
Johannes Friburgensis and translated into German at the end of the Cen-
tury by one Dominican Friar Berthold Huenlen. The author gives advices
for all kind of cases: Law, Jews (marriage between Christians and
J e w s), Commerce, etc. etc. Very interesting the various chapters on
conjugal life from a medical point of view.
Fine large copy, some sligth stains and insignif. wormholes.
No copy of this very rare edition in U. S. A. (acc. to Census).
501 Petrus de Rosenhaim. Roseum memoriale divinorum eloquiorum. Nürnberg,
Fr. Creussner, 1493. 4to. Goth. 56 11. W. a fine xylogr. initial J on
title. Bds. 75.—
H. 13991. Pr. 2161. BMC. II. 454. Short summary of the old and new testament in
hexameters. Rare and nice impression. Stamp and name on title.
502 Statuta Venetorum, latine-italice. (Ed. with an Italian translation by
Franc. Gibertus). Venice, Dionys. Bertochus, 1492. Fol. Goth. 2 cols.
printed in red and black. 100 leaves (12 and 100 blank). Contemp. binding of
wooden boards, back covered with brown leather (dam.), one clasp. 900.—
Hain-Cop. 15021. Pr. 5280. BMC. V, 489. First edition with corresponding Latin
and Italian text of the Statutes of Venice. The Latin and Italian versions are prin-
ted side by side, except in the ‘leze pisana1 which is in Italian only.
This book is of greatest importance and interest in the history of economics
and law in the Middle-Ages, Venice of course being one of the greatest commer-
cial centres of the period. Apart from the rules for the Constitution of the town and
for commercial enterprise the most interesting feature of the book is the long sec-
tion cont. the Statutes governing naval matters .This section deals
with such matters as the equipment of boats, cargoes, wages of sailors, disputes bet-
ween owners of boats and sailors and all kinds of questions affecting s e a law.
The Statuta Veneta are one of the earliest books on maritime law and customs
published at the time of the great discoveries.
This edition is especially important as having the text in Latin and Italian and
containing the Appendix: „Leze pisana dele appellatione“, which is not in the ear-
lier edition with the Latin text only.
Fine, large copy with some insignif. wormholes formerly belonging to the
library of the famous jurisconsult Girolamo Rorario of Pordenone (Friaul)
with his signature on the title and on the first text-leaf. Bound at the end are
25 leaves, 12 of which thoroughly written by Rorario himself. This
manuscript is of greatest interest as containing explanations and additions to the
text by the famous jurisconsult. 2 leaves are written in Latin and ten in Italian.
On vo of the last leaf we read: „Velocissimum mens, fortissimum necessitas, sapien-
tissimum tempus“, and below a political poem in Italian, probably written by Ful -
vio Rorario, the son of Girolamo, a well-known poet of the time. On Rorario
see Manzano, Annali del Friuli, VI, p. 475: „Rorario Girolamo da Pordenone
era dotto nelle lingua greca e latina, e laureato in legge, fu gran letterato e mi-
nistro di principi, lascio opere di molto merito; nato nel 1486, morto nel 1555.“
503 (Suntheim, Lad.) Der löbl. fürsten u. des lands Österreich althar körnen u. re-
gierung. Basel (Mich. Furier, nicht vor 1491). Fol. Got. 21 Bll. Mit xylo-
graph. Titel, 2 blattgr. genealog. Portr.-Holzschn. u. zahlr.
Initialen. Pappbd. 180.—
H. 879. BMC. III. 702. Schreiber 4075. Editio princeps. Einzige, sehr seltene In-
kunabelausgabe dieser wichtigen frühen österreichischen Chronik. — Beigeb. sind
