THOMAS AQUINAS (c.1225-1274, Saint). Opuscula, edited by Paulus Soncinas. Milan: Beninus et Joannes Antonius de Honate, 1488.
Chancery 2° (292 x 199mm). Gothic type, double column, initial spaces with printed guide-letter. (Small marginal wormholes in the first few leaves, a4.5 coming loose.) Early vellum, manuscript title on spine, sprinkled edges in red and green. Provenance: Torcello, monastery of Augustinian Hermits of Saint Mathew (near contemporary inscription) -- Brother Franciscus Maria Pollidorius 1750 (inscription) -- Antonius Phoebeus 1769 (inscription).
Probable second edition and first Italian edition of most of these philosophical and theological works, some now know to be spurious. An undated edition of the same compilation plus a few additional works, printed in the southern Netherlands but of uncertain attribution, is given priority.
