Dissertation

[SATIRE - GERMAN - UNIVERSITIES]. Facetiae facetiarum, hoc est jocoseriorum fasciculus novus, exhibens varia variorum autorum scripta, non tam lectu jucunda & jocosa, amoena & amanda, quam lectu vere digna & utila, multisve moralibus ad mores seculi nostri accomodata, illustrata & adornata. (Rostock?, no pr.), 1627.
Very rare collection of popular humorous texts (facetiae), reprinted many times in the 17th centuries. The collection was first published in 1600 containing only twelve titles and was later placed on the Papal Index. The collection mainly consists of sham dissertations, mock disputations and so-called Macaronic poetry, normally a form of light or comic poetry in which foreign (usually Latin) words or phrases are introduced into vernacular sentences and vernacular words tricked out with Latin inflections, making intentionally barbarous neologisms. The parts of the collection of facetiae - mostly also published separately - were often published with false imprints and fictitious author names, for example 'Dionysius Bacchus' & 'Blasius Multibibus' as the authors of a dissertation on drinking. The 17 parts are mostly about sex and drinking, mostly in Latin but one of them in German (nr. 2) and together they provide a humorous, interesting and wonderful view on daily student live at the German Universities during the 16th and 17th centuries: - The collection is preceded by the general title (<I>Facetiae facetiarum</I> ...), printed in red and black with only the year of printing: '1627' (verso blank), followed by a leaf with citations from Pliny, Aristotle, Plato and Aenea Silvius.<B>- 1.</B> <B>Christophorus</B> <B>FAHRENHORST</B>, <I>De Bancorottorum pessimo atque horrendo scelere practico dissertatio politica.</I> Rostock, Aug.

The text on bankrupts (pp. 1-83) is followed by laudatory poems by Hiob Lepner, Caspar Blisener, Christ. Wilkau, and Theod. Jodocides.<B>- 2. Hans PUMBSACK</B>, <I>Das is ein Gespräch zwischen zweyen Persohnen Philomusum und Hansen Pumbsack, worinnen nicht allein für Augen gestellet, wie nerrisch und ungeschickt diejenigen, so den Freyen Kunsten zuwieder seyn, von den Gelahrten in gemain ... </I>1627.

(16) pp. This is a popular mock dissertation on student 'Pennal' usages which includes German & macaronic passages. The 'dissertation' was published for the first time in 1511 (=1611) in Leipzig and is divided in 100 'theses'. Many editions followed till far into the 18th century; also incorporated in the <I>Nugae venales</I> ... (1642).<B>- 6.
