The manuscripts held by the National Library of Russia comprise of over 1400 private archives and collections that today number more than 450 000 valuable items for all periods and countries.








The library's stock of rare books contains more than 70 000 volumes. An appreciable portion of those are incunabula (books printed before 1501): about 7 000 works. The library has no rival for its stock of early Russian printed books and Slavonic incunabula, it also holds a large amount of West European publications from the 16th and 17th century. The most remarkable among collections are Aldine editions of the 15th - 16th centuries and Elseviers produced by the celebrated 17th/century Dutch family firm. The Rare Books Department can boast Voltaire's Library, the unique monument of 18th century culture, that is one of some well surviving private libraries of that time.




The National Library's collection of printed maps and atlases is the second largest in the country, comprising more than 180,000 items printed in Russia and abroad from the sixteenth century to the present. It incudes maps, atlases, reproductions of manuscripts, globes, electronic cartographic publications.


A unique photographic collection of the Prints Department is a true chronicle of the life of Russia since the second half of the 19th . It includes portraits from the 1850s, photographic views of cities and other places since the 1850s, photos on various subjects from the 1860s, photographic reproductions of works of art.

"Plekhanov House".


However, publishers have always tended to create copies if not unique in the strict sense, then having unique characteristics that distinguish them from the entire run. Such books are often specifically decorated and designed as gifts for high-ranking persons to became unique. Stored in the Rare Books Department of the National Library of Russia in St. Petersburg, the incunabula Astrolabium Planum in Tabulis by Johann Engel, published in 1488, is one of the earliest examples of such "presentation" copies. In contrast to the main portion of the edition, printed on paper with black and white prints, our Astrolabium is printed on vellum and has beautiful hand-painted illustrations. The bookplate and owner's stamp indicate that the book belonged to the famous St. Petersburg bibliophile General Piotr Sukhtelen in the 19th century.


The author of the Astrolabium was Johann Engel ( 1463-1512 ). After finishing his studies as a pupil of the famous astronomer, astrologer, and mathematician Johann Muller (Regiomontanus) in Vienna, he eventually became a professor of astronomy there. Engel has prepared several learned treatises during his long life: he published astronomical tables - ephemeris of celestial bodies, made by his teacher Regiomontanus, as well as an improved and enlarged edition of Calendar by Regiomontanus. In addition, he published a revised translation of Abu Ma'shar's eight-volume work De magnis conjunctionibus (On great conjunctions) and edited the fundamental astrology textbook in ten parts Liber Astronomiae or 'Book of Astronomy', written by Guido Bonatti. But the book that earned him the most popularity was Astrolabium planum. To the interpretations of the Zodiac by Italian physician, astrologer and philosopher Pietro d'Abano in treatise Imagines, Engel added illustrations showing the 360 degrees of zodiacal belt with an explanatory sentence for each of them. (The sky is divided into the familiar twelve signs of the zodiac and then into thirty degrees for each sign.) The book includes a brief description of the person who has this degree rising in the horoscope and his/her astrological chart.


'Here is the beginning of the Comprehensible Astrolabium in the Tables, which contains distribution of celestial houses for every hour and minute, the delay of the embryo in the mother's womb with a useful and beautiful interpretation of births, as well as the local time for each region of the world.'


'So there safely ends the new work Comprehensible Astrolabium in the Tables, written by Johann Engel the Master of the Liberal Arts, [ issued ] before the November calends of the year of 1488 by the remarkable efforts of the skilled man Erhard Ratdolt from Augsburg, as well as through the outstanding printing technique, for which, he is well known, in former time, in Venice, and now in Augsburg.

Thank God.'


At the beginning of our copy of Astrolabium is the publisher's preface dedicated to the Bavarian Duke Albrecht IV the Wise ( 1447-1508). The preface is decorated by a luxurious frame with a floral design. Two coats of arms are located in the lower margin: one of them belongs to Duke Albrecht IV the Wise (to whom the fine copy was presented) and the other, most probably, to the printer Erhard Ratdolt. An extract from the preface (translated by K.Chistihin) is a good illustrative example of how an European citizen addressed to his Lord without unnecessary derogatory phrases,


We now understand the joy of the printer that his publication will not be lost, will not sink into oblivion due to his art creating a lot of copies. And Ratdolt was right - the book was in great demand: it did not take long before the work of Johann Engel was reissued. Under the title Astrolabium planum in tabulis ascedens it was republished by Johann Emerick in Venice already five years later - in 1494, the English translation was made in 1655. The Russian translation appeared in 2006, it was made from the second - Venetian edition1.
