ANTUERPIAE: APUD IOANNEM BELLERUM SUB AQUILA AUREA. In 24. Dim. 13x8 cm. Pp. (36)+370+(24).Rarissima edizione senza data ma del 1580 della nota leggenda "Barlaam Iosaphat". Il racconto, attribuito a San Giovanni Damasceno (676-749) e popolarissimo in età medievale narra la conversione di Iosafat per merito del Santo eremita Barlaam. Sembra che la storia venne in realtà ricalcata sul modello della vicenda della conversione del Buddha. San Giovanni Damasceno venne dichiarato dottore della chiesa nel 1890. Opera redatta a cura di Georges Trapezuntius. Alla fine del volume la breve opera "De comparatione regis et monachi" di Giovanni Cristostomo a cura di Germain Brice. Antica firma al frontespizio e sottolineature all'interno. Bella legatura in piena pergamena coeva con titolo manoscritto al dorso. Rarissimo, solo sette copie censite su ICCU.

Gore d'acqua al margine inferiore delle prime 4 carte. Very scarce not dated edition but of around 1580 of the famous legend "Barlaam Iosaphat". The tale, attribuited to Saint John of Damascus (676-749) and very popular in Middle Age talks about the conversion of Iosafat for the merit of the Heremit Barlaam. It seems that the history was in reality compared on the model of the happening of conversion of Buddha. Saint John of Damascus was declaired doctor of church in 1890.

Description:
1670 1ed Sheringham De Anglorum Britain Phoenicia Germanic England OriginsRobert Sheringham was a 17th-century English historian who is best remembered for his works on the history of Great Britain. He studied the origins of English linguistics and how they correlated to Greek and Welsh languages. In his work 'De Anglorum Gentis Origine Disceptiatio', Sheringham discusses the origins of British people groups focusing on Phoenicians and Germanic tribes.
According to Cox, Sheringham's 'De Anglorum'
"was highly praised in its day as a scholarly investigation of the origin of the races which peopled in the British Isles."
