1579 Thomas of Ireland Monk Hibernicus Irish Philosophy Flores Bible AnthologyExtremely Rare title / comp@$3,000 / NoReserveThomas of Ireland (fl. 1295 - 1338), known as Thomas Hibernicus was an Irish writer. His claim to fame is not as an original author, but as an anthologist and indexer. Thomas was the author and compiler of the Manipulus florum ('A Handful of Flowers'). The Manipulus florum survives in one hundred and ninety manuscripts, and was first printed in 1483. It was begun by John Gualleis or Walleis, a Franciscan friar, under the title of Manipulus Florum; but death obliged him to leave it unfinished, and Thomas put the last hand to it, and gave it the title of Flores Doctorum.We find other 16 th -century examples of Flores omnium for sale elsewhere for over $2,850!Main author : Thomas HibernicusTitle : Flores omnium pene doctorum qui tum in theologia, tum in philosophia hactenus claruerunt, per Thomam Hibernicum olim summa cum diligentia collecti ac ordine alphabetico in unum congesti...Published : Lugduni : apud G.
