GEBWEILER, Hieronymus (1473-1545). Libertas Germaniae, qua Germanos Gallis neminem vero Gallum a Christiano natali, Germanis imperasse, certissimis classicorum scriptorum testimoniis probatur. Strassburg: Johann Schott, 1519.
4° (197 x 139mm). 22 leaves. Full-page woodcut portrait of Charles V by Hans Baldung Grien. (Some browning and spotting.) Modern brown blindtooled morocco over thin pasteboard, red edges.
FIRST EDITION of Gebweiler's forceful argument supporting the election of Charles (already King of Spain, soon to be Charles V) as Holy Roman Emperor. On Maximilian's death in 1519, his grandson Charles faced considerable opposition in the succession from Francis I of France and Pope Leo X. It was in part the stirring of national sentiment by tracts such as this by the German humanist Gebweiler that finally secured the imperial title for Charles. The young king is depicted here in a handsome woodcut portrait by Hans Baldung Grien; it was used in four anonymous publications on the same subject in the same year (cf. Oldenbourg, Grien, 341, L146-150). RARE, VD-16 lists 3 copies. Chrisman, Strasbourg, H1.2.29; Oldenbourg L148; Ritter 941; VD-16 G-600.
