I, half-title remounted, marginal tears in first lvs repaired, first lvs of quire "i" unbound and break after quire "h" [1 lf. unbound] in vol. I, break after quire "Aa" [p. 565 partly unbound] in vol. IV, title-page of vol. VII underlaid with tears repaired, 1 tear without loss in its design to the browned world map browned, "Candido lectori" in vol. VIII missing). Modern binding : full natural pigskin blind stamped with Renaissance-like pattern, boards with frames of fillets forming lozenges and fleurons in the crossings, ribbed spine with fillets, gilt edges (some joints partly split, spine of vol. I and vol. IV partly broken, turns ins and edges slighlty damaged or faded, some small traces of use, tear at the upper fly leaf in vol. V, traces of tape on the boards of vol. VIII). Est. : 30.000/ 40.000 € First edition of Plantin`s Polyglot known as the Antwerp or the Royal Polyglot. The text of the Old (vol. I-IV) and of the New Testament (vol. V) is disposed as follows : on the left pages the text in Hebrew with the Latin Vulgata translation by Saint Hieronymus and underneath the Chaldaic (i.e. Aramaic) paraphrase in Hebrew type, on the right pages the text in Greek with the Latin translation and underneath the Latin translation of the Chaldaic paraphrase. Vol. VI-VIII consist in the "Apparatus" which is a series of treatises, dictionaries (Greek, Hebrew, Syriac), grammars and text-editions. Our "Apparatus", with a mix of versions A and B of the treatises (cfr Voet), contain some variants compared to the "Ordo librorum" bound in volume I : the "Hebraicorum bibliorum Veteris Testamenti Latina interpretatione" and the "Novum Testamentum Graece" are inverted in vol. VII,- the "Communes et familiares Hebraicae linguae idiotismi" is not bound at the end of vol. VII but at the beginning of vol. VIII,- the "Candido lectori. Guid. Fabr. Bod. in titulorum totius Novi Testamenti Syriaci" is missing but as Voet says "in some copies a treatise may even have been dropped". Our copy, with wide margins and entirely ruled, is illustrated with : vol. I : the engraved title by Petrus A. Merica or Van der Heyden, the allegory of the "Pietas Regia" (i.e. Philip II) also by the same at the back of the engraved title and the "Allegory of the Authority of the Pentateuch".— Vol. II : the frontispiece by Jean Wiericx figuring the crossing of the Jordan by the people of Israel.— Vol. IV : the frontispiece of the workers in the vineyard of the Lord.— Vol. V : the frontispiece with the "Baptism of the Christ".— Vol. VIII (15 illustrations instead of 16 as our copy has the version B of the "Tubalcain" in which the representation of a "sicla" has been dropped) : the world map on double page in version B (without the typographical text "Orbis tabula. Ben Aria Montano auctor" on the recto of the world map), the map of Chanaan, the map of the "Terra Israel", the "Arca Noe", 5 plates of the Tabernacle, one plate figuring the camp of Israel, one of the ground-plan of the Temple Jerusalem and 2 other plates representing parts of it, the full-page figuring a Hebrew Great-Priest and the plan of Jerusalem on double pages. Furthermore, there are four typographical titles in an architectural frame comprised in the pagination ("Pentateuch", "Prophetae", "Hagiographoi Sancti" and "Prophetae posteriores"). Plantin`s Polyglot Bible in five languages (Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Chaldaic or Aramaic and Syriac) "may considered to be the largest typographical enterprise of the 16th Century" (cfr Voet) and is a fantastic technical, philological, scientific and exegatical prouesse. Plantin took as a model the "Complutesian" or "Ximenes" Polyglot of Alcalá de Henares (1514-1517, 6 vol.) but "with many corrections, addition of the Syriac text and numerous treatises in the "Apparatus" (cfr idem). Benedictus Arias Montanus (1527-1598), one of the most learned Oriental scholars who accompanied the Bishop of Segovia to the Council of Trent and chaplain of Philip II, "was the leading force of the gigantesc enterprise" (cfr idem). He was assisted by Plantin`s son-in-law, Franciscus Raphelengius and by Guido and Nicolaus Fabricius Boderianus. Most of the treatises in the "Apparatus" are written by Arias Montanus, R. Raphelengius and G. Boderianus but the scholars Andreas Masius, Guilelmus Canterus and the Cardinal Sirlet made also contributions. Plantin`s proof-readers Cornelis Kilianus, Theodoor Kemp and Antoon Spitaels as well as the theologians of Leuven University Augustinus Hunnaeus, Joannes Harlemius and Cornelius Reyneri Goudanus supported this major project printed at 1.213 copies, financed and encouraged by Philip II. no.
