In den Warenkorb4to (180 x 241 mm). (16), 228, (4) pp. Engraved title-page; woodcut diagrams in the text. With large woodcut printer's device to verso of final leaf. - (Bound after) II: Magini, Giovanni Antonio. Novae coelestium orbium theoricae congruentes cum observationibus N. Copernici. Venice, Damiano Zenaro, 1589. (28) pp., 115 ff., final… blank leaf. Engraved title-page, numerous woodcut diagrams in the text. 19th-century full leather, rebacked, with Society of Writers to the Signet Arms to upper board. Marbled endpapers. The first stand-alone edition of al-Battani's tenth-century "Kitab az-Zij" in Latin, containing the earliest extant astronomical table in the Ptolemaic tradition. The significance of this work is underscored by the early annotations to this volume in Latin and Arabic, by a scholar who knew both languages. Bound first is the work of Giovanni Antonio Magini (1555-1617) which defended the geocentric model and brought it to its highest level of sophistication and accuracy. This unique volume thus contains the full arc of the geocentric Ptolemaic model of the universe, from its medieval zenith to its final eclipse. - The annotations to the lower flyleaf contain numbers referring to latitude and longitude as well as comments on the Arabic vocabulary of the original and their Latin translations, showing use by an active and learned astronomer. Both works are illustrated with numerous elegant diagrams, charts and tables. - Al-Battani (latinised, Albategnius) built on Ptolemey's Almagest, which he refined and corrected, revolutionising the ancient Greek methods of calculations by introducing sines and tangents. The result was a text which became the standard guide to astronomy for centuries to come, particularly notable as the earliest extant work to include an astronomical table (zij). - This 1645 edition was the first stand-alone version of al-Battani's work to be printed in Europe: the first printing of 1537 in Nuremberg also included al-Farghani's Elements.The Latin translation itself dates to the twelfth century, when it was produced in the cultural crossroads of Barcelona by Plato of Tivoli. - Magini was chosen over Galileo Galilei to be Professor of Mathematics at Bologna in 1588. A staunch defender of geocentrism against the theories of Copernicus, which placed the sun at the centre of the universe, he nonetheless used his remarkable technical expertise to produce further refinements to Ptolemy which better accounted for the observable phenomena. - The provenance of this copy can be traced back to Robert Gray and Joseph Letherland, two notable physicians of the 17th and 18th centuries. After entering the Library of the Society of Writers to the Signet in Edinburgh, it was withdrawn and was latterly owned by Prof. Owen Gingrich, the noted American astronomer and Professor at Harvard. - A rare appearance on the market: Rare Book Hub records only three other copies of the 1645 Albategnius sold since 1958, and none other is bound together with the work of Magini. - Two stars of geocentric astronomy, from its zenith to its dusk. - Boards lightly rubbed, edges worn. Late 18th or early 19th century annotations to rear flyleaf. Some well-executed repairs. Magini engraved title has marginal outside corner torn away and restored in pen facsimile. Some very scattered staining and spotting; overall interiors crisp, clean and clear, in very good condition. - 1) Robert Gray (1648-1701), physican and Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, signature to Magini title-page dated 1684, later updated to 1698. - 2) Joseph Letherland (1699-1764), physician and Fellow of the same, signature dated 1740. - 3) Library of the Society of Writers to His Majesty's Signet, Edinburgh, with coat of arms stamped on binding and shelf-mark, stamped as withdrawn (visible underneath later bookplate). - 4) Bookplate of Prof. Owen Gingerich (1930-2023), American astronomer. - 5) Swann Galeries, New York, 23 April 2026, Lot 10. - I: Lalande 220.
