PETRUS LOMBARDUS (c.1100-1160)
Sententiarum libri IV. [Strasbourg: Heinrich Eggestein, before 1471].
First edition of one of the most important books of the Middle Ages and the foundation of theological study. No copy has sold at auction in over 50 years, with the exception of an imperfect copy in 1982. As required reading in virtually every centre of learning throughout Europe in the middle ages and well into the Renaissance, the Sentences was exceptionally influential on subsequent philosophers and theologians from Albertus Magnus and Thomas Aquinas to Martin Luther and Jean Calvin. It is a compendium of Biblical texts and excerpts from the Church Fathers and provides an encyclopaedia of Christian theology. Presented in four books, the first book considers God and the doctrine of the Trinity; the second concerns the Creation; the third deals with Christ and the Christian religion; and the fourth considers the Sacraments and questions on religious and moral duties. H 10183*; BMC I, 67; CIBN P-237; Bod-inc. P-222; BSB-Ink. P-376; Goff P-479; ISTC ip00479000.

Royal folio (383 x 291mm). 265 leaves (of 266, without final blank). Opening initial in blue with red penwork decoration, other initials alternating in red and blue, headlines, chapter numbers, paragraph marks and capital strokes in red, also a note by the rubricator added at the end of Book II noting that he has corrected the text (neat internal tear in BB2, some toning, a few sheets lightly browned, minor dampstain in first quire). Contemporary German blindstamped pigskin over wooden boards, some quire guards (darkened, somewhat restored, rebacked in the early 19th-century, metal cornerpieces and central boss, remains of clasps). Provenance: contemporary annotations in several hands, sometimes extensive and showing close reading against other copies and a deep engagement with the text – a Dean of Halle [University] (purchase note dated 1839) – 19th-century library stamp partly erased ‘Bibliotheca –‘.
