About This Item

Genève, Jean Durant, 1578. *** Organisation de l'Eglise de Genève, des écoles et ordonnances sur les moeurs. Ces ordonnances, datées du 13 Novembre 1561, sont en grande partie l'ouvrage de Calvin. On y apprend les peines encourues pour les "paillards". L'adultère d'un homme marié avec une femme mariée est puni de mort. Et inversement. Il existe deux émissions de ce texte, la première porte la date de 1577, la suivante comme celle-ci contient en plus les "Edits et ordonnnances de la cité de Geneve sur les crimes de paillardise et adulteres" qui ont une pagination particulière et qui semble manquer à l'exemplaire de la bibliothèque de Genève qui est numérisé. Il manque deux feuillets blancs H7 et H8. L'exemplaire a été lavé au moment de la reliure, une restauration en marge de la page de titre et au coin des derniers feuillets. La reliure est signée de Hans Asper, relieur genevois, actif de 1874 à 1911. Exemplaire d'Ernest Stroehlin avec son ex-libris gravé par Champel représentant Jean Calvin, avec la devise "Mente libera". (N° 1472 de sa vente de 1912). GLN-892. USTC 5941. Brunet , Manuel du Libraire I, 1507. *** In-8 de 124, (8) pp. [A-G8, H6, ¶4] Maroquin brun, dos à nerfs, tranches dorées.

These ordinances, dated November 13, 1561, are largely the work of Calvin. One learns here the punishments incurred for the "paillards". The adultery of a married man with a married woman is punished by death. And vice versa. There are two issues of this text, the first one is dated 1577, the next one like this one contains in addition the "Edits et ordonnnances de la cité de Geneve sur les crimes de paillardise et adulteres" with a particular pagination and which seems to be missing in the copy of the library of Geneva which is digitized. Two blank leaves H7 and H8 are missing. The copy has been washed at the time of binding, with a restoration in the margin of the title page and at the corner of the last leaves. The binding is signed by Hans Asper, bookbinder from Geneva, active from 1874 to 1911. Copy of Ernest Stroehlin with his bookplate engraved by Champel representing Jean Calvin, with the motto "Mente libera". (N° 1472 of his 1912 sale). - -.

About Hugues de Latude

I specialize in antiquarian books : early printed books, incunabula, illustrated, science, medecine, natural history... I have been a bookseller since 1988 and I mostly go for books I have never seen.
