Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. A married set, but a surprisingly rare and largely complete first edition of the English printing of Erasmus's Paraphrases to the New Testament, a literary rendering of an English translation of the New Testament, interweaved with an English translation of Erasmus's Paraphrase of the New Testament. Although both volumes have annotations and inscriptions, the first volume is a veritable trove of notation. There are countless annotations in what is most likely either a contemporary or very near contemporary hand, written in Old English, and the dizzying script seen in 16th century manuscripts. There must be hundreds of hand-drawn manicules as well, more than I have ever seen in a single volume in my entire life. The second volume also has a few scattered annotations and notes, though nothing like what is seen in the first volume. The title page to the first volume is lacking, supplied in modern facsimile, as are the two blanks at end of Luke (kk6) and John (U8). The second volume also lacks six leaves, being the title page, C1-4 (Argument Romans) at the end of the preliminaries, and the penultimate leaf at end (Revelation of St John, folio xxxix), all being supplied in modern facsimile, and also lacking three blanks from St Paul to the Galathians and Ephesians). It should also be noted that there are various foliation errors. Asides from the penultimate leaf lacking, the main text itself is complete. Volume 1: 658 of 661 leaves. [18], cxxi [i.e. cx], [8], xciiii, [14], cx[c]vii, [8], cxxi, [2], lxxxvi of lxxxviii leaves. Volume 2: 347 of 353 leaves. [7 of 12], xliiii, lxiv, xxi, [5], xv, x, x, [xii], xxxiv, [xxviiii], [2], liv, [2], xxxix of xl leaves. These volumes are in very good shape, with some rubbing and wear to the first volume. The lower half of leaf b8 from the preliminaries has been excised and repaired with text loss affecting the final two lines and the three words 'without end. / Amen'. There are also marginal repairs to leaf a2 of the preliminaries, and a long diagonal closed tear repair to Matthew O2. There is some damp staining and soiling to the initial leaves, and some spotting and occasional marginal burn holes. Some of the annotations to the first volume have been shaved due to trimming. The second volume also has some dampstaining and soiling throughout, heaviest to the initial handful of leaves. A complete writeup is available at my direct website with more provenance notes.…

Generations of ownership signatures to title and colophon pages, occasional ink marginalia. Devereux 3.3.1. The Dutch humanist Erasmus of Rotterdam was the greatest Renaissance scholar in Northern Europe. His Apophthegmata, a collection of Greek and Latin adages and anecdotes, was first published in Latin in 1531. The English playwright Nicolas Udall translated Books III and IV of the lengthy work into English, intending his portion to be the first in a series of pocket-sized scholarly works. It was, however, a dangerous time to publish Erasmus. The humanist's criticism of clerical corruption had paved the way for Martin Luther's denunciation of the Catholic Church. There was a conservative backlash against reform after the 1540 execution of Henry VIII's fixer Thomas Cromwell, who had patronized both Udall and his publisher, Richard Grafton. In 1541 Grafton was imprisoned for publishing an epistle by a Lutheran reformer. He was sentenced again in 1543 'for printing off such bokes as wer thought to be unlawfull.' Grafton and Udall did better under Henry's successor Edward VI, who after his ascension ordered that a copy of Erasmus's commentary on the New Testament, edited by Udall, be kept in every church in England. Among the faded names beautifully inscribed in this copy is that of Philemon Holland (1552-1637), whose fame as a translator surpassed that of Udall. He gave the world the first complete translation of Livy into English, and followed it with Pliny the Elder's Natural History. Udall's rendering of Latin into English would have interested Holland professionally, though he doubtless owned a copy of the original as well.…
