Ɵ In universam Aristotelis Physicam commentarii et disputationes", "Quaestiones quae supersunt In Metaphysicam Aristotelis" and "Disputationes ad libros de celo", a university textbook probably made for a member of the Clan Leslie, in Latin, manuscript on paper [Scotland or the Low Countries, dated 1618] To view a video of this lot, click here.258 leaves, wanting a few single leaves throughout, a 7-leaf section from the section on the Metaphysics, as well as leaves from end, single column of approximately 52 lines of tiny script, rubrics and titles in larger versions of same, no apparent watermarks, section of both title-pages cut away, last leaves held in place with metal pin, some spots, stains and bumps to edges of leaves, overall far and legible condition, 192 by 152mm.; contemporary limp parchment binding with label on spine describing contents, but erroneously dating these to "XVI Cent", binding becoming loose Probably written for, and by, a student in the Low Countries in the seventeenth century: dated 13 June 1618 at the opening of the section on Aristotle's Metaphysics. The contemporary ex libris marks of "A.L. Leslie" (the initials part of an elaborate monogram and uncertain) and "Monsieur Leslie" (fol. 122r) indicate the volume was used by a member of the Clan Leslie, who in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries sent many of their young men to the Continent, notably the Low Countries, for a Catholic education. This book may have been produced in Scotland before its owner travelled, or in his destination. It evidently returned with him to Scotland, and comes now from a British collection.
