2 parts in one volume, each with separate title-page. Small 4to. (19 x 14 cm). pp.[ii]+172+62 (mispaginated to 60)+[1, colophon]. Contemporary full vellum, manuscript title to spine. Text in Arabic, Latin, and occasionally Hebrew. Engraved printer's device to both title-pages. Annotations in various hands throughout, including some in Arabic. Upper joint partially cracked with some traces of tape reinforcement, boards a bit splayed, title-page with three excisions including upper margin, some light creasing and toning mainly to margins, generally a very good copy. The second edition, much enlarged, of Erpenius' classic Arabic grammar, the first scholarly Arabic grammar written by a European. First published in 1613 as 'Grammatica Arabica' this grammar marked a breakthrough in European attempts to render Arabic grammar accessible to students who had been educated in the Latin tradition (Loop, Introduction , 5). The second edition appeared in 1636 - edited by Anton Deusing, a pupil of Golius - adding the fables of Lokman and Arabic proverbs earlier edited by Erpenius. Erpenius (1584-1624) revolutionised Arabic scholarship in Europe and made the Netherlands the most important European centre of Arabic studies before he died of the plague in 1624. His grammar remained the standard work in the field for two centuries. Cf. Brunet II, 1050; Graesse II, 499. The Teaching and Learning of Arabic in Early Modern Europe, ed. J. Loop et al. (Leiden, 2017).

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. First Edition. Hardback. 8vo. 17 cms by 13. Two parts. Complete. pp [16], 332 [i.e. 330, pp.145-146 omitted from pagination but (but catchwords running on normally); p.149 numbered 145, 153 as 149], [5, elenchus], [1, blank]"Oratio de. Tetragrammato" at rear has caption title but shares pagination. Woodcut printer's device at title; lettrines, head- and tailpieces. First edition of a famous and controversial work of seventeenth-century Hebraic scholarship, published anonymously with an introduction by the celebrated arabist Thomas Erpenius. "In the second and third quarter of the 17th century the attitude which an orientalist took towards the antiquity of the vocalisation signs was to become a touchstone of his attitude towards the more strictly dogmatic opinions" (Van Rooden). William Orme, in his 1824 Bibliotheca Biblica WROTE: "This celebrated work, which first attacked the authority of the Masoretic points, stated all the arguments against them so fully and clearly, that it exhausted the subject at the first onset." Here published anonymously, the Arcanum was reprinted in Cappel's 1689 Commentarii et notae criticae in Vetus Testamentum. Van Rooden states that in the 1625 edition of his Ius regium Hebraeorum the Hebraist Wilhelm Schickhard was the first to reveal (amid the minutiae of an errata note) Cappel's identity as the author of the Arcanum. The work concludes with Cappel's 1614 oration on the correct pronunciation of the tetragrammaton. Rebound in recent half dark leather, marbled boards lettered gilt at the spine with 5 raised bands. Some slight chips and creasing to edges of first blank title page and first page of the book (preface) with no loss of text. Pages clean and sound - overall very good or better.

Small 4to. (20 x 15.5 cm). Contemporary calf, spine with raised bands and gilt-decorated compartments, brown morocco label (partially missing), marbled endpapers, edges dyed red. Text in Latin and Arabic, title with engraved vignette. Some foxing and staining or browning, 1 or 2 ink annotations, ink ownership inscriptions to rear free endpapers and pastedown, spine ends chipped and bumped, rubbed, some wear to extremities, with a very good unsophisticated copy. An important reprint of the first accurate book of Arabic grammar by orientalist Thomas van Erpe, the work which introduced generations of Europeans to the rudiments of Arabic grammar. It includes an early Latin translation of the 9th century Arabic anthology the Hamasah by Abu Tammam. Thomas van Erpe, with a Latin name Thomas Erpenius (1584 1624), was a Dutch Orientalist, who founded a printing press with Hebrew, Arabic, Syrian, Ethiopian, and Turkish type in Leiden, South Holland. The first edition of van Erpe's Arabic grammar was published in 1613. After a great success of the book, further enlarged editions were published, such as Rudimenta linguae Arabicae (1620), Grammatica Ebraea generalis (1621) and after van Erpe's premature death Grammatica Chaldaica et Syria (1628). Our edition here includes reprinted text on grammar from the 1656 edition, but includes for the first time a Latin translation of a famous anthology of Arabic poetry the Hamasah (Hamasa) by Abu Tammam (788 845). Abu Tammam was born in Syria to Christian parents, but converted to Islam. His work is known as one of the greatest anthologies of Arabic literature ever written. The Hamsah text was edited and translated by Albert Schultens (1686 1750), an orientalist, specialist in Hebrew and Arabic, professor at the University of Leiden and the chief teacher of the Arabic language in the whole of the Europe.

FISRT EDITION. 4to. (18.5 x 14.5 cm). pp.[8]+126+[final blank]. Contemporary limp vellum. Text in Arabic and Latin. With woodcut printers' device on title-page and one woodcut initial. Vellum a bit soiled, contents with some light toning, spotting, and marginal dampstaining most prominent to first 9 leaves, withal a very good copy. First edition of this seminal work in the history of Arabic scholarship and printing: the first book on Arab proverbs, and the first critical edition of an Arabic text. These 200 proverbs - each presented in Arabic, Latin translation, and with a note in Latin - constitute a collection akin to a mirror for princes, dedicated to the education and refinement of a gentleman's personal and political life. "Echoing Aristotle's 'Golden Mean' they reflect the moral values of the well-bred gentleman, who should be generous without ostentation, frugal without stinginess, moderate and self-controlled, truthful but discreet, and strong without being inflexible" (Vrolijk). The original manuscript was obtained in Rome by the French mathematician and member of the French gentry, David Rivault, sieur de Fleurance (and later the tutor of Louis XIII), who gave it to an anonymous 'Maronite Arab' in Rome to translate into Latin. Upon his return to France, Rivault showed both the manuscript and translation to classical scholar and philologist Isaac Casaubon (1559-1614) who, delighted with the discovery, made a copy of both for his own private use (now in the Bodleian Library in Oxford - MS Casaubon 30). Causaubon then despatched his transcription of the Arabic text to Joseph Scaliger (1540-1609) in Leiden who translated and explained the first 176 proverbs. After his death, the work was completed and prepared for publication by Thomas Erpenius (1584-1624) who, just he previous year, had become the first European to publish an Arabic grammar (Grammatica Arabia, 1613). The sources of the proverbs are numerous. The editors cite Abu Ubaid al-Qasim ibn Salam (c.770-838), a prolific Muslim scholar educated in Basra and well-versed in Muslim law (fiqh), the hadith tradition, theology, and various other scholarly pursuits who authored a compilation of just under 1,400 sayings (Kitab al-amthal). In addition some of the proverbs are borrowed from a famous compilation of Arabic sayings, the Majma' al-amthal of Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Maydani (d.1124), and another entitled Kitab al-amthal al-sa-ira (bayn al-nas). Finally, some of the sayings have been shown to have been translated from a Christian Syriac text by Theodosius Romanus, the Jacobite patriarch of Antioch between 887 and 896. This point was forcibly made in 1660 by the Maronite Abraham Ecchellensis (Ibrahim al-Haqilani) in response to Swiss Protestant scholar Johnn Heinrich Hottinger, who used Erpenius's edition to claim that that Muslims, though unbelievers, were more virtuous than the popes. This work of proverbs was one of the last books to be printed with Raphelengius brothers' large Arabic types. It has been hailed as watershed achievement in the history of Arabic studies in the West and is "regarded as the first critical edition of an Arabic text, with a Latin translation and commentary" (Vrolijk). (Vrolijk, Arnoud, "The Prince of Arabists and his Many Errors: Thomas Erpenius's Image of Joseph Scaliger and the Edition of the 'Proverbia Arabia' (1614)" in Journal of the Warburg and Courtauld Institutes, 2010, Vol. 73 (2010), pp. 297-325).

"First printing of the Pentateuch in Arabic characters" (Smitskamp). Edited by Thomas Erpenius and printed with his influential nashk Arabic types, cut under his direction by Arent Corsz. Hogenacker in Leiden. It gives the text of a 13th-century translation of the Pentateuch in the Maghreb dialect (spoken in Mauritania). Erpenius was one of the most distinguished orientalists and by far the best Arabist of his day. He published an influential Arabic grammar and several excellent critical editions. His own private printing office, equipped with Hebrew, Arabic, Syriac, Ethiopic and Turkish type, produced its first works as early as 1615. Hogenacker later cut more Arabic types and his heirs sold Arabic and other punches and matrices to Oxford University for their embryonic printing office.With bookplate, owner's inscription and library stamp of Verplanck Colvin (1847-1920), an American surveyor, engineer, naturalist and lawyer; and on the title-page an owner's inscription of "H. Jo. Gottlieb Stimmel", possibly the art dealer Johann Gottlieb Stimmel (1766-1836) from Leipzig. Occasional spots, some leaves with a minor waterstain in the upper or lower margin, nor affecting the text. A good copy, with generous margins. Binding slightly soiled and with a restoration to the front inner hinge, but otherwise good.l Breugelmans 1622-2; Darlow & Moule 1645; De Nave, Philologia Arabica 86; Smitskamp, Philologia orientalis 86.

First edition of one of the most important and controversial works of seventeenth-century Hebraic scholarship, published anonymously with an introduction by the celebrated arabist Thomas Erpenius. ?In the second and third quarter of the 17th century the attitude which an orientalist took towards the antiquity of the [Massoretic] vocalisation signs was to become a touchstone of his attitude towards the more strictly dogmatic opinions? (Van Rooden). The clarity and force of this seminal piece of scholarship is perhaps best described by William Orme, in his 1824 Bibliotheca Biblica: ?This celebrated work, which first attacked the authority of the Masoretic points, stated all the arguments against them so fully and clearly, that it exhausted the subject at the first onset.? Here published anonymously, the Arcanum was reprinted in Cappel?s 1689 Commentarii et notae criticae in Vetus Testamentum (Commentaries and Critical Notes on the Old Testament). Van Rooden states that the Hebraist Wilhelm Schickhard (in the minutiae of an errata note in his 1625 Ius regium Hebraeorum) was the first to reveal Cappel?s identity as the author of the Arcanum. The work concludes with a reprint of Cappel?s 1614 "Oratio de ss. Dei nomine Tetragrammato YHVH ac genuina ejus pronuntiatione" (Oration on the Correct Pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton). The oration was reprinted in a 1707 compilation edited by Adriaan Reland, Decas exercitationum philologicarum de vera pronuntiatione nominis Jehova, comprising ten dissertations on the same topic, written by eight scholars in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good+. Second Schultens edition. Three parts, quarto. a-r4 s2 t4 (-t4) A-4P4 (= 409 leaves). [14], cxxxii, 301, [302]-603, [1, blank], [68, indices]pp. Engraved printer's device at title, heraldic cartouche at dedication; woodcut head- and tail-pieces, lettrines; divisional titles at 2C3 and 2P4, register continuous. Prize dedication at front endleaf. Library stamps and endleaf and title. Contemporary half calf over lightly rubbed marbled boards; spine with morocco lettering piece; partially detached green silk ties. A clean, fresh, amply-margined copy. Second Schultens edition, a line-for-line reprint of the 1748 edition, with only the indices expanded. This Arabic grammar and chrestomathy, with a long excerpt from the Hamasa of Abu Tammam, edited by Schultens for the first time, embodies the collective scholarship of numerous early modern students of the Arabic language, spanning more than a century, including such notables as Joseph Scaliger (1540-1609); Thomas Erpenius (1584-1624); Jacobus Golius (1596-1667), and Albert Schultens (1686-1750). The Grammatica arabica, "the first scientific Arabic grammar written by a European scholar" (Smitskamp), is the work of Thomas Erpenius and was first published in 1613; his edition of selections from the Fables of Luqman appeared in 1614. Later editions of the Grammatica were edited by Golius, Erpenius' successor to the chair of Arabic at Leiden. The selections of anonymous Arabic proverbs were first edited by Erpenius and Scaliger. The Schultens' editions expand the critical apparatus and add a long preface, along with selections from the ten-book anthology of Arabic poetry compiled in the ninth century by Abu Tammam (fl. 808-842). The collection of ancient Fables traditionally ascribed to Luqman the Sage has long provided elementary reading material for young students of Arabic. In his classic anthology, Henry Coppée provides an English translation of the first fable in the present selection (p.207), The Lion and the Two Bulls: One day a lion attacked two bulls, but the two joined their forces and struck him with their horns; they thus prevented him from separating them. He then addressed one of them, and deceived him by promising that he would never undertake anything against him. He thus succeeded in separating him from his companion. Deceived by this promise, the two bulls left each other; whereupon the lion tore them in pieces, one after the other. Moral: When people of two adjoining towns unite in opinion and purpose, their enemies' efforts against them are vain; but when discord divides them, they both perish. Annotations and Provenance: The front endleaf contains a prize inscription dated XIII ante Cal. Septembr. MDCCCXXXV [1835] for the achievement of Bartholomeus Joannes Westerbeek Van Eerten, signed by the curators of the Doetinchem gymnasium. Excerpts from Brill catalogues noting the 1636 and 1748 editions of Erpenius' Grammar are tipped-in at the front endleaf. Old library stamps of a Dutch theological school appear at the front endleaf and title.
