JUSTINIANUS, Sebastianus. Orazione a Vladislao re d'Ungheria. [Venice: Bernardinus Venetus, de Vitalibus, after 5 April 1500].
Median 4° (203 x 158 mm). Collation: a4 (a1r text). 4 leaves. 42 lines. Type 3:111R (heading), 4:85G. Woodcut white-vine initial (upside-down A) opening text. Formerly part of a Sammelband with MS foliation 73-76. (Slight marginal worming repaired in first 2 leaves.) Modern paper boards.
Giustiniani delivered this oration on 5 April 1500 before Wladislaus II, King of Hungary, an ineffectual leader whose own people dubbed him "King All Right." As the subject of his laudatory oration, Giustiniani takes the noble cause of the crusade against the Turkish infidels, a cause which united diverse European states, notably Hungary under Wladislaus's forebear, Matthias Corvinus. Bernardinus de Vitalibus also printed an edition of this oration in Latin (Goff J-612).
RARE; only one copy in America, and only two in IGI.
