Kaufbeuren: Christian Starck, 1742. Hardcover. Very good. [8],498,[5] pp. including index. In German. Contemporary mottled calf, raised bands, spine richly gilt, gilt leather labels, marbled endpapers, all edges red. Early 20th-century satanic bookplate of "Winkler Jenö." Calf worn at edges and rubbed, loss to lower corner of first rear endpaper. Very good.
Later edition, after the first of 1682. One of the last published examples of medieval-style prophecy, the work foretells the life, magical works, reign, and defeat of the Antichrist, with various revelations relating to signs of his coming and the end of the world, the murder and resurrection of Enoch and Elijah, and the Second Coming of Christ, as well as a section on the "Messiah of the Jews." The author, Dionysius von Lützenburg (i.e., Luxemburg, ca. 1652-1703), was a Capuchin friar known especially for this, his first work, and his hagiographical LEGEND DER HEILIGEN (1684). The present copy contains the very unusual bookplate of Jenö Winkler ("Winkler Jenö," in the Hungarian style), who is also evidently its artist, with his monogram in the print. The plate, printed in black and red, shows a suited devil plunging a skull-tipped sword through a large bleeding book. OCLC lists four copies, three in Germany, one at Brigham Young University. Rare.

Description:
1863 GHOSTS 1ed Discovery Ghouls Occult Spirits George Cruikshank Caricature ArtGeorge Cruikshank was one of the most prolific book illustrators of 19th-century England. His caricature illustrations most famously appeared in some of the works of Charles Dickens. He regularly depicted English life and satirized politics and social customs, especially slavery and abolitionist reforms. Being disturbed by the American spiritualist and séance fad going around he applied his satire to the idea of ghosts claiming that clearly it was all a hoax as ghosts always appear clothed and for that to be true clothes would have to be a part of the soul, which can only be absurd.
This 1863 first edition includes 9 black and white woodcuts of varying sizes throughout!

Description:
1698 Zodiacus Vitae EXISTENCE of ANGELS Occult Demons Zodiac Palingenius BANNEDMarcellus Palingenius was a 16th-century Neapolitan poet who is primarily known for his book 'Zodiacus Vitae'. When Palingenius first published this book in the 1530s, he penned the name Pier Angelo Manzolli as the author as he (correctly) anticipated that would become one of the many books to be banned by the Catholic Church during the Inquisition on the Prohibited Books Index.
'Zodiacus Vitae' was written to articulate the sources of human happiness as it pertains to metaphysics. Though, in doing so, Palingenius managed to attack the traditions of the church – not just the Catholic Church and the popes – but also the theology of Martin Luther. Each of the twelve sections represents one of the zodiac signs each of which contain fascinating discussions. For example, in the seventh book, Palingenius "argues for the existence of angels" and demons! (Beckwith)

Internals very clean ( not even any pricing marks in pencil) though there is a paper clip indentation at the lower edge affecting the title, onwards for 20 pages. Unclipped wrapper has only some rubbing but I detect no tears, creases or chips. The paper is wonderful; it strikes me as feeling and looking like "linen" (not your business/office grade) but I am by no means an expert on paper.
