One of the manuscripts brought back by Pococke was the al-Mukhtasar fî'l-Duwal (History of the Dynasties) of Abu'l-Faraj (1226-1286). Pococke was a Royalist and thus out of favour during the Protectate, but with the Restoration he returned to Oxford where he began work on the complete Historia Compendiosa Dynastiarum. In 1663, almost thirty years after Pococke had returned from Aleppo with the manuscript, the ground-breaking Historia was first published."A revolution in Arabic studies, being Pococke's attempt to show that far from being a mere ancillary to biblical exegesis, Arabic literature (in the widest sense) was worthy of study in its own right" (ODNB).

GW, 2333. Goff, A-958. Sander I 580. Essling I 2,2 1163.First printed edition of Aristophanes, comprising Plutus, Nebulae, Ranae, Equites, Acharnes, Vespae, Pax and Contionantes in the recension of the fourteenth-century Byzantine scholar Demetrios Triklinios, and one of the most important productions of the Aldine Press. Aldus was the first to found his career on the publication of Greek texts, printing more of the editiones principes of the major Greek classics than any other printer. The editor was the Greek humanist Marcus Musurus who also wrote the preface on the reasons for studying Greek and the stylistic beauty of Aristophanes. Aldus' dedication to Daniele Clario, teacher of classical languages in Ragusa, commends the plays of Aristophanes as necessary for pupils to immerse themselves in pure Greek, in the way that Terence serves for Latin.One of the greatest English book and manuscript collectors, Sir Thomas Philipps began collecting while still at Rugby School and continued at Oxford.

(who had not seen a copy); Caillet II 4304; Not in Mortimer, Harvard C16 It., Sander or Essling.A rare Cabalistic work from Gerson Soncino’s short-lived Orthona press, which produced only four books, one of them in Hebrew. “Most interesting of all of these is the work of Petrus Galatinus, the Franciscan, ‘On the Mystery of the Catholic Truth’ … we find among [Gerson’s] publications the ancient classics as well as Catholic publications … and most remarkable of all the book of Galatinus, which was not only Catholic but distinctly anti-Jewish in purpose, introduced to the public in Hebrew verses by the author or some apostate editor as a book filled with loveliness, expounding the secrets of the Talmud in which may be found the very foundation of Christian Messianism the unity of Father, Son and Holy Ghost. The desire to find support in the Hebrew books for the doctrine of the Trinity arose out of the spread of Cabalism, a so-called science, through which Jewish mystics attempted to explain the mysteries of heaven and earth, and which had many Christian devotees, among them the famous Cardinal Egidio of Viterbo, who in this very year 1518 had assisted in the establishment of a Hebrew press in the city of Rome”. (Amram cit. infr.)Galatinus (alias Columna) was a converted Jew from Apulia who in the present work, dedicated to the Emperor Maximilian no less, undertook the defence of Reuchlin for his interest in the Cabala and Jewish books. He explains that in times past the Cabala had been secretly and orally transmitted, though recent Jews such as the Rabbi Simeon had written about it lest it be lost entirely, albeit in veiled terms. Galatinus holds that the Talmudic tradition enables one to piece out gaps or corrupt passages in scripture. He also deals at length with the Tetragrammaton and the divine names, the rest of the book largely concerns the Messiah and the time of His coming.

This is perhaps the earliest edition of the English Bible which has dates added in the margins. Job is dated 2400 and the Nativity 4000 years after the Creation. Three varieties occur of this edition and this particular Bible appears to conform closely to variant B (Darlow & Moule 586; Herbert 745). The leaves before sheet F are printed in the same type as the rest of the Old Testament and the New Testament, but with a fuller page, containing 63 lines to the column. Marginal matter with dates is present. The letterpress New Testament title in this example has a repeating ornamental device forming a triangle shape and the imprint 'Printed at the Theater in Oxford, and are to be sold by Moses Pitt at the Angel... , Peter Parker at the Leg and Star..., Thomas Guy at the Corner..., and William Leak at the Crown..., London. Anno 1679'. However, Darlow and Moule and Herbert suggest the New Testament title bears the device of three crowns and an open book inscribed Dominus Illuminatio Mea, within a circle of light (not seen in this example). This example of the Bible agrees with Darlow and Moule and Herbert as it doesn't contain the dedication, list of books or engraved New Testament title; possibly thus issued.
