Chess.- Johannes Gallensis Summa collationum, sive communiloquium, ?first edition, collation: [a-z8 A-I8 K6], 262 ff., 27 lines plus headline, gothic type, two- to four-line initials in red, red paraphs, initial strokes and underlining, very good margins with early manuscript sidenotes and copious small lection marks for reading aloud, plus subject headings including 'de ludo schacio exposius', contemporary blind-stamped calf over wooden boards from the bindery of the Kartause Marienburg (Weddern, near Duelmen, Westphalia), 2 clasps and remains of leather straps, rebacked and with new endpapers, corners rubbed, 4to (210 x 138mm.), Cologne, Ulrich Zel, [c.1472].⁂ Generally regarded as the first edition, closely followed by another Cologne edition dated 1472, printed by Arnold Ther Hoernen. This manual for priests and preachers is most notable for being the first printed book to describe, albeit in moral/allegorical terms, the game of Chess. Pars 1, Distich 10, Caput 7 includes the exposition beginning "Mundus iste totus quoddam scaccarium est, cuius unus punctus est albus et alius niger" (the world resembles a chessboard which is chequered white and black) and ending with the caution that if a man falls into sin "in isto scaccio dyabolus dicit eschack" (in this game of chess the devil says Check). The moves of the various pieces are described in symbolic terms: the King can move in all directions because his will is law; the Knight's move consists of a straight move and a sidelong one, to illustrate his legitimate powers and his illegal extortions; the Bishop moves obliquely 'because nearly every bishop misuses his office through cupidity'; and the Queen's move of just one square diagonally (under the medieval rules, before her power and scope were greatly enlarged in the Renaissance) 'is aslant only, because women are so greedy that they will take nothing except by rapine and injustice' (H.J.R. Murray, A History of Chess, 1913, p.530). It is rare at auction, with only two copies (including this in 2017) recorded since 1906. ISTC lists 6 copies in North America, but none of which at Harvard, Yale, Morgan, Huntington, LC, Folger or Newberry.Provenance: Ampleforth Abbey (bookplate and facing ink stamp).Literature: BMC I, 191; Goff J-328; H 7440*; GW M13986; BSB-Ink I-574; ISTC ij00328000.
