[RODRIGUES EBORENSE, André (compil.)].- PRIMERA PARTE DE | las sentencias que hasta nuestros | tiempos, para edificacion de buenos | costumbres, estan por diuersos Au- | tores escritas, enste tratado summa | riamente referidas, en su propio | estilo. Y traduzidas enel | nuestro comun. | Comueniente licion, a toda | suerte y estado de | gentes. | M.D.LIIII.- Coimbra: Ioan Alvarez, 1554 [aliás 1555].- 340, [2] p.; 19 cm.- E. Second 16th century edition, published without the name of the compiler (1498-1573), out of the presses of the Coimbra printer João Álvares, whose authorship was identified by Luís de Matos, in 1983, in the introduction of the facsimile edition of "Sentenças para a ensinança e doutrina do Príncipe D. Sebastião". At the end, the colophon is dated March 20, 1555, while the press foot on the title page indicates MDLIII. The colophon of the Lisbon edition has a printing date of November 13, 1554, which removes any doubt as to the primacy of the publication in relation to the present one. The work, with bilingual text in Latin and Castilian, consists of a collection of quotes from doctors of the Church and classical authors, among which we highlight Plutarch, Seneca, Pliny, Suetonius, Virgil, Ovid, Horace, Plato Aristotle and Erasmus. Copy a little cropped (carmine edges) and with slight foxing. Lightly weakened title page, with a minor central restoration and an old, very faded ownership on the upper margin. First 12 and last six sheets with stain on the lower margin. Some old scratches (reading signs) marking sentences. Ex-libris with unidentified monogram on the back cover. Nineteenth-century binding, full sheepskin, with slight damage to the head of the spine, with gold closed panels, with the talking super-books of the Library of Salvá in the centre of both covers. Pedro Salvá y Mallen (1811-1870), born in Valencia (Spain), notable bookseller and bibliophile, enriched a family library, whose catalogue, containing about 4000 entries, was published posthumously in 1872. The following year, the Library of Salvá, was offered for sale in London and most of the books were acquired by the Malagan bibliophile Ricardo Heredia. Anselmo, 63. Palau, 237498.
