Description
1555. Small in-8° : 278-[6] lvs (handwritten provenances, one crossed out on the title-page, some underlinings, small defect in the margin of lf. 19, tears reinforced in lf. 152, dampstains in the second half of the vol.). 17th Century binding : vellum with visible sewing, flat spine, red sprinkled edges (stains, edge of upper board partly split with small lack, flyleaves renewed, slightly trimmed).
Second edition of the Latin translation (1st ed. : Paris, 1554) of the homelies on the Gospels by Eusebius (c. 300- c. 359), bishop of Emesa and disciple of Eusebius of Caesarea (263-339). The attribution of those homelies are discussed : for some scholars they could have been written by Latin authors like Saint Eucher of Lyon, Faustus of Riez, Caesarius of Arles...after Eusebius , for others by an unknown Eusebius called "the Gallicanus". Printer's mark on title-page and contemporary handwritten Bible references in some margins. # Adams E-1066; # BT I-1078; # USTC 404968 (giving Eusebius Caesariensis as author); # not in Machiels nor in Soltész. 1 Seconde édition de la traduction des homélies sur les Évangiles d'Eusèbe, évêque d'Émèse. L'attribution de celles-ci est discutée : écrites pour certains par des auteurs latins postérieurs à Eusèbe, dues à Eusèbe "le Gaulois" pour d'autres. Plein vélin du 17e s. (mouill. dans la 2e moitié, taches à la rel.).
