Rare publication of the Propaganda Fide in Rome, showing alphabets of non-Latin scripts, published without a title-page and printed on the rectos only, with 7 of the 12 leaves showing alphabets of the Propaganda Fide's printing types for Hebrew (3 sizes of meruba (square) and 1 of rabbinical (semi-cursive)), Samaritan (majuscule) and Syriac (estrangela and serto). The Syriac language bears no relation to modern Syria but is a form of Aramaic spoken by many early Christians in the Middle East and still surviving today. The Propaganda Fide apparently had some of these types cut exclusively for their use, and the present publication shows complete alphabets (including some variant forms) for 6 of the 7, in most cases also with a few words or lines of text (it shows only the first half of the alphabet - alaph to kaph - for the very large serto Syriac). This provides an especially valuable overview of the founts.The present publication collates: A-C4 = 12 ll., with quire signatures on leaves 1-2 of each quire, each leaf printed on the recto with a title at the head:A1: Alfabeto del protoparente Adamo I. delineato nella libraria Vaticana. [woodcut characters]A2: Alfabeto II. di Adamo secondo che riferisce il P. Giacomo Bonavent. Scozese dell'Ordine di S. Francesco di Paolo nel suo alfabetario intitolato Virga aurea.

[estrangela Syriac type, Coakley S7 (1636)]C4: Alfabeto Chaldeo, overo Siro detto, di due righe di Silvio. [serto Syriac type, Coakley W12 large size (1618), bought by the Propaganda Fide 1653]Nearly all references describe this book as an oblong 8vo, but this appears to be an error. The two copies we have examined are both oblong 4to's, with the chain-lines vertical in the oblong leaves and the watermark(s) divided at the heads of the leaves (in the middle of a long edge). Several leaves with the double rule at the foot shaved, not effecting the text or quire signatures, otherwise in good condition.
