AL-FARGHANI, Ahmad ibn Mohammad ibn Kathir and Jacob CHRISTMANN (translator).

Chronologica et astronomica elementa, e Palatinae bibliothecae veteribus libris versa, expleta, & scholiis expolita.Frankfurt, Andreas Wechel (heirs of), Claude de Marne, and Johann Aubry, 1590. 8vo. With a woodcut vignette on the title page and the final leaf, a woodcut decorated initial, and a woodcut head- and tailpiece. Near contemporary overlapping vellum with the manuscript title on the spine, remnants of ties, red edges.

[1], [1 blank], [12], [2 blank], 565, [1], [1 blank], [1] pp.Rare first edition of the Latin translation of a very influential astronomical work, which was in large part responsible for spreading Ptolemaic astronomy in medieval and early modern Europe. Written in the 9th century, it was a summary of Ptolemy's Amalgest, but circulated in Europe long before the Amalgest itself was first translated into Latin (1496). The work was referenced by numerous medieval authors, and it is known that Dante Alighieri also used it for two of his works (Vita Nuovo and Convivio). Despite its importance, however, the present edition is quite scarce, as we have only been able to trace one other copy in sales records of the past 100 years.Ah?mad ibn Moh?ammad ibn Kathi¯r al-Farghani (also known as Alfraganus in the West, ca. 800-ca. 861) was one of the astronomer-astrologers employed by the Abbasid caliph Al-Ma'mun (r. 813-833) in Baghdad. He composed several works on astronomy and astronomical equipment that were widely distributed in Arabic and Latin for multiple centuries. The present work, however, is his best-known and most influential one. It was known in Arabic under various titles, including Kita¯b jawa¯mi' 'ilm al-nuju¯m wa us?u¯l al-h?araka¯t al-sama¯wi¯ya, which translates to "Book of generalities of astronomy and bases of celestial motions". It was written between 833 and 857, and is a summary of Ptolemy's Amalgest, but with corrected calculations that were based on the most up-to-date information of the time. Like the Amalgest, Al-Farghani's work describes the movements of the sun, moon and planets, their distance to earth, solar and lunar eclipses, a calculation of the dimensions of the earth, descriptions of the different climates on earth, and zodiac signs. Al-Farghani also added a chapter with comparisons between different calendar systems. According to the Dictionary of Scientific Biography, the work "gives a comprehensive account of Ptolemaic astronomy that is entirely descriptive and nonmathematical. These features together with the admirably clear and well-organized manner of presentation, must have been responsible for the popularity this book enjoyed." The work was translated into Latin multiple times, including by Johannes Hispalensis (John of Seville, fl. mid-12th century), Gherardo da Cremona (ca. 1114-87), and Jacob Golius (1596-1667). It was also translated into Hebrew by Jacob Anatoli (1194-1256). The present Latin translation is by German orientalist and humanist Jacob Christmann (1554-1613), and was based on Anatoli's Hebrew translation. A second edition appeared in 1618. In the appendix, Chistmann mentions his difficulties in editing it while lacking suitable Arabic versions. His lament about the difficulty of printing a scientific work that predates his era by more than 700 years, is a telling detail that highlights the influence that scientific texts produced in the Islamic world had on early modern Europe.With a crossed out ownership annotation on the recto of the first flyleaf, an annotation ("f=10=") on the verso of the first flyleaf, a calculation in an 18th-century hand on page 25, and another annotation in a different 18th-century hand on pp. 531 and 565 ("de el Conde de Storrepalma"). The edges and corners of the boards are slightly scuffed and the vellum is slightly stained, with an imprint of a label on the spine, a green ink scribble and partially rubbed off writing in blue ink on the front board. The work is somewhat browned throughout, with a water stain in the outer margin of the first 30 pages, slightly affecting the text, the head margin has been cut slightly short, without affecting the text. Otherwise in good condition.l De la Lande, Bibliographie astronomique, p. 121; DSB 4, p. 541-545; Houzeau & Lancaster 1115; USTC 676537; VD16 A 1203; Zinner 3368.

His ideas were not adopted at the time but became an important reference throughout the Middle East" - Publisher's description.

AVERROES (Muhammad IBN AHMAD IBN RUSHD).

[Tahafut al-Tahafut - latine: Destructiones destructionum philosophi Algazelis]. Eutyci Augustini Niphy Philotei Suessani in librum destructio destructionum Averroys com[m]entationes ad Dominicum grimanum cardinalem maximum.With: NIPHUS, Augustinus. De sensu agente.[Venice, Bonetus Locatellus] for the heirs of Octavianus Scotus, [ca. 1500]. Small folio. With numerous woodcut initials. Printed in Gothic type, in 2 columns. Near contemporary limp vellum.

130 ll.One of the great classics of Muslim as well as of Western philosophy, demonstrating that rational thought and theology are not at odds with each other. In this, his possibly most famous work, Ibn Rushd reacted to al-Ghazali's "Tahafut al-Falasifa" ("The Incoherence of the Philosophers"), which had dominated Muslim philosophical thinking for the past decades: al-Ghazali's late 11th-century treatise had denounced Ibn Sina and al-Farabi for their Greek-inflected metaphysics, which he had found contrary to Islam. Himself an avowed Aristotelian, Ibn Rushd refuted Al-Ghazali's book section by section, showing that there was in fact no conflict between Greek logic and the Qur'an.Ibn Rushd's apology of Aristotelian philosophy, cleverly named "The Incoherence of the Incoherence", was translated from Arabic into Latin in the early 14th century by the Jewish philosopher Kalonymus ben Kalonymus, and the translation was first published in 1497 by Locatellus in Venice, as one of Kalonymus' only efforts to see print. This is the undated second issue of that publication, and much rarer that the first: only ten copies are known in libraries worldwide, one of which (in St Andrews) is severely incomplete, containing only the appendix ("De sensu agente" by Agostino Nifo, the editor, who also provides a lengthy commentary). No copies in America. Auction catalogues list a single, incomplete copy, lacking four leaves. A landmark work of cross-cultural philosophy, reconciling theology and rationalism; of principal importance for sixteenth-century Aristotelian thought.A fine copy in excellent condition.l Bod-inc A-631; CCIR N-16; Günther (L) 3423; GW M26980; IBE Post-incunables 187; IGI IV,146; ISTC ia01412500; Martín Abad, 112; Proctor 5104; Reichling 643; Sheppard 4247; USTC 761883; cf.
