Pontificale secundum Ritus Sacrosancte Romane ecclesie cum multis additionibus opportunis ex apostolica bibliotheca sumptis et alias non impressis. Venice, Giunta, 1520., Second Giunta edition dedicated to Pope Leo X Pontifical According to the Rite of the Most Holy Roman Church, with many appropriate additions taken from the Apostolic Library and not otherwise printed. Venice, Giunta, 1520. Folio (340 x 235 mm); [6], 253 leaves. Title page with title and printer’s mark printed in red within an elaborate woodcut frame; large woodcut of the Crucifixion within a frame; 162 illustrations in the text; wood-engraved historiated initials; text in two columns in red and black Gothic type; numerous musical notations (first two loose leaves; outer margin of the title page restored and the lower margin of two leaves re-edged; a few small woodworm holes; foxing along the lower margin of the last leaves; the last blank leaf is missing.) 18th-century half-parchment binding with corners and colored paper, title embossed in gold on the smooth spine (some woodworm holes). Beautiful woodcuts, engraved in the style of Zuan Andrea, adorn this important edition—the first to incorporate the additions and corrections by the Dominican friar Alberto Castellano, upon which the first post-Tridentine reissue of the *Pontificale Romanum*, commissioned by Clement VIII, was based. The work is divided into three books: the first contains the liturgical norms regarding the ordination and blessing of persons; the second, those for the blessing of objects; and the third describes the principal episcopal functions related to the liturgical year. The enduring influence of this edition is particularly significant, as Books I and III remained essentially unchanged until the Second Vatican Council. Second revised edition, dedicated to Pope Leo X
