A Bequest to the Club. -One of the chief interests of the late Hamilton B. Tompkins was the collection of prints suitable for extra-illustrating “Franklin in France” by Edward E. Hale and Edward E. Hale, Jr. 74 In his will he bequeathed the work, which he had en- larged to six volumes, to the Club, together with a sum of money for binding it suitably. The books have recently arrived and, as soon as they have been bound, will be on exhibition in the Library. They will be greatly valued, not only as an important possession, but as a token of the donor’s regard and thought for the Club. Mr. Tompkins had been a member since 1887. The House. Beyond a rearrangement of the Books in the Library and Print Room, the replacing of the descriptive labels for the Club’s collection of Bindings and the usual cleaning, there have been other im- provements during the summer. The walls and ceil- ings of the Club Room have been thoroughly cleaned and the ceilings of the Hall and Librarian’s room have been recalcimined. -

Plusieurs des sermons de Saint-Augustin comptent parmi les plus belles exégèses que possède l’Eglise. Saint Augustin est des Pères de l’Eglise celui autour duquel le monde chrétien a le plus âprement disputé : catholiques et protestants, jansénistes et jésuites se sont également abrités derrière son autorité pour faire triompher leurs doctrines. L’humanité est aux yeux de saint Augustin si radicalement enfoncée dans le péché que sa nature lui interdit toute aspiration vers le bien. Le salut ne peut donc être que l'œuvre de Dieu seul. (Michèle Federico Sciacca). Ulrich Zell apprend la technique de la typographie à Mayence dans l’atelier de Peter Schoeffer et Johann Fust, et doit sans doute quitter la ville comme beaucoup d’autres imprimeurs, après le sac de la ville, dans la nuit du 28 octobre 1462, par les troupes de l’archevêque Adolphe de Nassau. -

Printing was immediately a highly desirable technology, able to meet the fifteenth century’s growing demand for books of all kinds3 by mass-producing the codex form and all that could be included between its two covers. There already existed international markets in Europe for other goods that were traded abroad by merchants, but print functioned differently as a commodity. Whereas wool could be brought to the nearest port for export overseas and simply sold there, handed off to the merchant who would then travel to the next port and sell the product there, a printing press or a fount of type were not simply exchanged for a sum of a money in fifteenth-century Europe4. Printing entailed a crucial difference: its novelty required a very specific and very rare expertise, which meant that those who exported print from its home in Germany very often went with it to its new home in a new culture. -

The Library of the Episcopal Semi- nary of Győr possesses approximately 200, and the former Fran- ciscan Library of Gyöngyös, in the custody of the National Széchényi Library, has preserved about the same number of incunabula.
