The Italian Antiquarian Booksellers’ Association has published a list of books stolen from the Library of the Abbey of Montecassino. The library’s director, Dott. Francesco Rosa, has kindly given permission to inform all ILAB booksellers about this recent theft in detail.
The monastery was founded by Benedict of Nursia in 529. There he wrote the Benedictine Rule which became the founding principle for Western monasticism.
The list of stolen books comprises incunables and early printed books, many of them printed by Aldus Manutius in Venice, for example the works of Aristotle (1495) and Gaza’s “Introductionae grammatices libri quatuor” (1495), as well as Copernicus outstanding work "De reuolutionibus orbium coelestium" (1566), Aliaco’s “Concordantia astronomiae”, printed in Augsburg (Germany) in 1490, and Hartmann Schedel’s “Liber chronicarum” (Nuremberg 1493), from which woodcuts were stolen.
If you have any information about the books, please contact ALAI President Fabrizio Govi.

http://security.abaa.org/security/Der De Caro ist doch der, der die Bibliotheca dei Girolamini in Neapel beklaut hat? Die Liste im obigen Link deckt sich mit der hier veröffentlichten. Wo hat der denn noch überall herumgestohlen?

Ergänzung: In Florenz soll Massimo de Caro, der Dieb aus Neapel, auch geklaut haben, sagt "La Repubblica": http://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2012/12/06/de-caro-rubo-30-libri-antichi-dallo.htmlDe Caro sitzt seit Mai 2012 im Gefängnis. Frage: Wo sind die Sachen denn geblieben, die doch wohl zeiträumig länger vorher entwendet worden sind? Die wird doch niemand bei Verstand noch zu versäußern versuchen?
