[Laskai Osvát; Osualdus de Lasko] - Sermones de sanctis Biga salutis intitulati.
(Hagenau, 14. Jul. 1499. Heinrich Gran, pro Johanne Rynman). [374] levél. Second edition. The first was published in 1497. Very rare incunabel written by a Hungarian author. Osualdus de Lasko (1450-1511 June 10) was a popular Hungarian representative of the flourishing sermon literature of the late Middle Ages in Europe, along with Pelbartus de Themeswar and Michael de Hungaria. Michael de Hungaria was considered as author of this work for a long time. This is the first sermon collection of Lasko, his speeches are about the Sundays of the year and the holidays, mostly in two sermons each. On the lower part of the first page and the lower margin of the further 4 pages replacements are from old paper. The pages are slightly water stained in a few places. Pressed with rollers, leather binding dated from 1588, old inscribed label glued on spine. The seals closing the binding are missing, minor damages on spine.
