GRATIANUS. Decretum. Venetiis, per Baptistam de Tortiis, XXX martii, 1496 [Venice, Baptista de Tortis, Mar 30, 1496]. Large folio. 428x287 mm. Magnificent coeval brown leather binding on wooden boards, original metal clasps still preserved and working. Papers 333 (of 335), [3]. Marking: a⁸+² b-z⁸ &⁸ [cum]⁸ [rum]⁸ A-Q⁸. Latin text in two columns, surrounded by commentary of 82 lines, Gothic and Roman typeface. Title and letterpress mark on paper 336 printed in red, text entirely printed in red and black. Papers 188-189 are missing. Slight traces of moisture on side and top margins, nice copy on strong crisp paper. Rare Venetian incunabulum. Valuable and significant edition from the Venetian workshop of Baptista de Tortis, one of the most famous Italian printers of the late 15th century, renowned for the rigorous correctness and formal beauty of his editions. Confirming the authority of the printer, the title in red in the buttonhole is "Decretum de tortis." The Decretum is the cornerstone of medieval canon law: a collection of sources of canon law compiled - and periodically updated - by Gratian and composed of multiple treatises with which the author resolved the antinomies that had emerged in the more than one thousand years of history of legal norms in Christendom (including conciliar decrees), between procedural, tributary, civil, administrative/ordinal, penal, penitential and sacramental subjects, which had become conflicting over time.

Precious and meaningful edition from the Venetian workshop of Baptista de Tortis, one of the most famous Italian printer of the late fifteenth century, renowned for the rigorous correctness and the formal beautiness of his editions.

GALGEMAIR, Georg. Organon Logikon Kurtzer Grundlicher Warhaffter Gebesserter Und Verme Unterricht Zuberaitung Und Gebrauch, Dess Circkels Schregmess Und Lineal In Wahrer Proportion. Frankfurt, Johann Weh, 1654 In 4to; mm.190x160; Coeval vellum binding; Pages 8, 128 and 4 fold-out plates outside text ,1 printed numerical table on page 14 in the text and numerous xyl. engraved figures in the text; gora throughout volume. Sophisticated specimen. Rare edition by German physicist and anatomist Johann Remmelin. The work describes the construction and use of three different instruments, a proportional compass and two types of geometrical or military compasses. The first part is devoted to the construction and use of the reduction compass in plane and solid geometry, the second and third parts deal with the proportion compass, with a detailed description of Benjamin Bramer's rule of proportions. The book also contains a section on measurement and examines different methods for determining the volume of barrels.Originally published only 4 years after Galileo's "Compasses" (1606), the work partially reformulates Galileo's text but also contains the first illustrated description of a large German proportional compass with 9 lines, some invented by Galgemair himself: lineae fundamentalis, linea recta, linea circularis, geometrical line, stereometric line, astronomical line and a special line for 'reductio planorum, corporum'.It was Clavius who published the first and brief description of a proportional compass in 1604. In 1606, in " Le operazioni del compasso geometrico et militare," Galileo described a proportional compass of his own invention, now known as Galileo's proportional compass. Galgemair's work presents the first illustrated description of the first German proportional compass. Interestingly, the folded table depicting the two sides of Galgemair's section is life-size: the compass measures 28 cm.Editions printed in Augsburg: Johann Klocker, 1633 ("anjetzo aber zum drittenmal auffgelegt und Gedruckt") and Augsburg: Johann Wehe, 1655 ("anjetzo aber Zum virttenmal auffgelegt und Gedruckt") are recorded by VD17 (VD17 12:155110K; VD17 23:323920V, see lot 195), but not the present edition, printed by Wehe with Frankfurt am Main address, and similarly "ansetzo aber zum vierdten mal auffgelegt." Here the title is in letterpress and inserted in a woodcut compartment; Wehe's 1655 edition has a fully engraved title.Tomash & Williams R72; not in VD17. 4to, 190x160 mm. Contemporary vellum binding. Pages 8, 128 and 4 folded plates outside the text, 1 numerical plate printed on page 14 in the text, and numerous woodcut figures in the text. Dampstain throughout the volume. Unsophisticated copy. Rare edition by the German physicist and anatomist Johann Remmelin. The work describes the construction and use of three different instruments, a proportional compass and two types of sector.The first part is devoted to the construction and use of proportional dividers in plane and solid geometry, the second and third parts deal with the sector, and include a detailed description of Benjamin Bramer's instrument. The book also contains a section on gauging. Originally published only four years after Galileo's Compasso (1606), the work partially paraphrases Galileo's text but also contains the first illustrated description of a large German sector with 9 lines, some of which were invented by Galgemair: linae fundamentalis, linea rectae, linea circularis, linea geometrica, linea stereometrica, linea astronomica and a special line for reductio planorum, corporum. Clavius was the first to publish a - brief - description of a sector in 1604. In 1606, in Le operazioni del compasso geometrico et militare, Galileo described a sector of his own invention, now known as Galileo's sector. Galgemair's work is the first illustrated description of the first German sector. It is noteworthy that the folding plate representing the two sides of Galgemair's sector is in real size : the sector measures 28 cm folded.Editions printed at Augsburg: Johann Klocker, 1633 ("anjetzo aber zum drittenmal auffgelegt und Gedruckt") and Augsburg: Johann Wehe, 1655 ("anjetzo aber Zum virttenmal auffgelegt und Gedruckt") are recorded by VD17 (VD17 12:155110K; VD17 23:323920V, see lot 195), but not the present edition, which was printed by Wehe with a Frankfurt am Main address, and likewise "ansetzo aber zum vierdten mal auffgelegt." Here, the title is in letterpress and set within a woodcut compartment; Wehe's 1655 edition features a fully engraved title.
