THOMAS À KEMPIS (c.1380-1471). Imitatio Christi. - Johannes Gerson: De meditatione cordis. [Ulm]: Johann Zainer, [14]87.
The most influential devotional work of the later Middle Ages in an attractive contemporary binding. The present edition is the first of two editions printed by Zainer that year. With, as a flyleaf, a 14th-century manuscript on the subject of skin diseases, the wording of which closely follows that found in a 19th-century compilation of medieval medicinal texts relating to the famed Scuola Medica Salernitana. H *9093; BMC I, 530; BSB-Ink T-173; Bod-inc. T-103; Goff I-15.
Chancery octavo (126 x 98mm). With the first blank, rubricated (without final two blanks, waterstaining, title partially crossed out, second leaf with closed tear and fading affecting a few letters). Contemporary Regensburg blindstamped pigskin over wooden boards [Kyriss 128], fore-edge clasp (clasp ?renewed, repaired split at upper joint). Provenance: stamps removed from first two leaves – remains of inscription on second leaf.
