LOBO, Eugenio Gerardo.

Obras poéticas de Don Eugenio Gerardo Lobo, ayudante mayor de las Reales Guardias Espa–olas de Infantería, dedicadas en esta segunda edicción al mismo autor. Y a–adidas de una tercera parte, y corregidas, y enmendadas.

Pamplona: por Joseph Ezquerro, 1729. 4to. [8], 260p. An edition printed on fairly low quality paper. Small hole in title-page affecting one printer's ornament. Marginal tear in P1 (without loss of text); paper flaws in T3 and T4 slightly affecting a few letters; paper flaw in V1 affecting 4 words; clean tears in 2A3 and 2D1; 2H2 and 2H3 shaved at foot with slight loss. Final few quires are a little dog-eared and have marginal damp-stains. Contemporary vellum (worn and cockled), remains of two ties; modern endpapers. ***** Poet and soldier from Toledo, Lobo took part in the war of the Spanish Succession on the side of Philip V, but aroused that monarch's displeasure by his satire Exhortación politico-cristiana a la nación espa–ola, in which he bewailed the plight of Spain. He also was present at the siege of Lérida, which he celebrated in epic octavas reales, and in the recapture of Oran in 1732, which occasioned his Rasgo épico. Lobo also produced numerous festive verses, the most witty of which is a parody: 'Octavas festivas a la derrota de unos pasteles en el Palau' as well as a large corpus of sonnets, the best being a neo-classical composition on sculpture: 'A la estatua del silencio'. Lobo's works were first collected in Selva de las musas (Cadiz, 1711) and later in his Obras poéticas (Cadiz, 1724?). Some of his Poesías appear in vol. 61 of the Biblioteca de Autores Espa–oles. - Ward p.334. Palau 139453. Cf. STC of 18th-century Spanish books in the British Library, L138, for an edition with same imprint but dated 1724.

MARIANA, Juan de.

Ioannis Marianae Hispani e Societate Iesu Historiae de rebus Hispaniae libri XXX. Cum indice copioso, & explicatione vocum obscuriorum.

Moguntiae: Typis Balthasaris Lippii, impensis heredum Andreae Wecheli, 1605. 4to. 2 vols. Vol. 1: [16], 619 pages. Vol. 2: 638, [36] pages, which are preceded by the Summarium ad Historiam Hispaniae eorum quae acciderunt annis sequentibus, Moguntiae, Impensis Danielis ac Dauidis Aubriorum & Clementis Schleichii, 1619, (41, [11] pages). 18th-century calf, covers decorated with a triple fillet border in blind; gold-tooled spine, sprinkled red-edged leaves. Worn at corners, joints and at head and foot of spines; some damp-staining at beginning of each volume; pages browned at end of volume 1, more so in the Summarium and in the second half of volume 2. **** Educated at the University of Alcalá, Mariana taught in Loreto, Sicily, Paris and the Low Countries and became Professor of Theology at Rome. He returned to Spain and from 1574 lived in Toledo. His Historiae de rebus Hispaniae libri XX (Toledo, 1592) was completed to the full thirty books in this Mainz edition of 1605, by which time Mariana's own Castilian version had appeared (Toledo, 1601). It made available to Spaniards and (through the Latin original) to the rest of Europe, a compendium of Spanish legend and history to the death of Ferdinand. Ticknor aptly called it 'the most remarkable union of picturesque chronicling with sober history that the world has ever seen', but its picturesque quality led to a detailed list of errors being published by the historian, Pedro Mantuano (Advertencia a la Historia de Juan de Mariana, Milan, 1611) - Ward, pp.361-2. Penney, p.335; BL 17th-century German, M303.
