FIRST EDITION. Generally considered as the first book printed in Italy with a date. If the "Donatus pro puerilis" was earlier printed in Italy, no copy of it has ever been seen. There is some doubt as Dampier and Lord Spencer conclude with to the printers of this very rare work, Bp. Meermann for Sweynheym and Pannartz, Bibl. Sp. I. 205. Freytag Adp. p. 208. Audiffredi Ed. Rom. p. 1. Of the few copies which are known, the greater number want the Errata of two leaves. The present copy is quite complete and was obtained at the Mac Carthy Sale.

The title is also wanting to the first volume. " About 1468 Landino wrote his Dispu tationes Camaldulenses. This work was first published without place or date but as Bandini supposes about 1472 or 1475. This edition is extremely scarce. Bandini could not find a copy in the Vatican Library." Roscoe's Lorenzo de Medici I. 103. "In these Disputations Landino has devoted the 3rd. and 4th., to a critical dissertation on Virgil whose works he afterwards corrected and restored." Roscoe's Lorenzo, II. 64. LANGLOIS, PIERRE.

LANIGAN, JOHN. An ecclesiastical history of Ireland, from the first introduction of Christianity among the Irish to the beginning day of Auguste. R. M. This is the fourth Edition; it is without printer's name and contains 384 leaves of which the last eight are not numbered. This edition is carried on by the author, Cooper, to the end of 1564, and therefore Ames vol. III. p. 1614 is mistaken in describing this as the same as the edition of 1549. Thos. Lanquet was proceeding in the 3rd Part of this Chronicle when he died in 1545, Cooper continued it from page 342 of this edition down to the year 1565. LANSIUS, THOMAS. F. A. D. W. (Fridericus Achilles, Dux Würtembergia) Consultatio de principatu inter Provincias Europæ. Editio Quarta prioribus auctior. Tubingæ, typis Brunnianis, 1635. 8vo. Frederick Achilles Duke of Wirtemberg called an assembly of Nobles and others at Tubingen in 1613, to discuss the comparative merits and demerits of all the Kingdoms of Europe. The Duke himself, his brother the Duke of Saxony, the Duke of Sleswick - Holsatia, and other nobles made public speeches on this occasion pro et con. Lansius edited those speeches, which must have been very popular as this is a fourth edition. LANSPERGIUS, JOANNES. An Epistle or Exhortation of Jesus Christ to the Soule, that is devoutly affected towards him. Wherein are contained certaine divine inspirations teaching a man to know himself, and instructing him in the perfection of true piety. Written in Latin by the devout servant of Christ Joannes Lanspurgius a Charter house Monke. And translated into English by the Lord Philip "Philip Howard, nineteenth Earl of Arundel, was son of Thomas, Duke of Norfolk, and the Lady Mary Fitz-Allan. This book and its author are unnoticed by Walpole or Park. The latter, and Mr. Heber, assure me they have never heard of or seen another copy." Note by Dr. Bliss. LANZAVECHIA, ODOARDO. Ragguaglio della Nobil Rotta data da Scozzesi a gl'Inglesi appresso la Citta di Duofres. Con prigionia di molti Baroni principali fra de quali un Cugino della Regina d'Inghilterra. Bologna et Padua, s. a. 4to. This very curious and singular publication is dated Di Brendai di Fiandra a di 4 di Maggio 1588. It describes the Execution of Queen Mary and an Action between the Scotch and English near Dumfries, in which the English lost above 3000 men, and Lord Suffolk their general was wounded and taken. It was probably written to encourage the Spaniards by the lie. LAON, J. DE, Sieur DAIGREMONT. Relation du Voyage des Francois fait au Cap de Nord en Amerique par les soings de la Compagnie establie à Paris, et sous la conduite de M. de Royville leur General, avec une ample description du Pays, des mœurs et façons de vivre des Sauuages, et l'observation des hauteurs.

Impressum est Venetiis summo studio, litteris ac impensis, Aldi Manucii Romani, MCCCCXCIV-V. 4to. R. M. First Aldine Edition. Renouard's account of this very rare edition is sufficiently ample; he supposes this to have been begun before the Musæus and Galeomyomachia, but that those two were finished before the Lascaris, but this opinion does not seem sufficiently sustained. The Appendix and two final leaves are found in this copy though they are usually wanting. Erotemata (Gr. Lat.) et alia Opuscula. Venet. apud Aldum. (S. a.) 4to. R. M. Second Aldine Edition. "Cette seconde edition d'Alde moins complete que celle de 1512 est certainement imprimée entre 1501 et 1503." Renouard. |
