Rilegato. Zustand: buono. quinta edizione o successive. Bella legatura veneziana coeva in piena pelle marrone con filettature e decoro centrale impressi in oro ai piatti. (64), 591 pagine numerate, iniziali incise nel testo. Impresa del Grifo al frontespizio e in fine al volume. Noctes Atticae è la più importante opera dello scrittore e giurista romano, così titolata perché ebbe origine da appunti presi dall'autore nelle lunghe sere d'inverno in una rustica dimora dell'Attica. E' un'opera miscellanea (in 20 libri) giuntaci quasi completa (manca il libro 8º, fatta eccezione per i titoli dei capitoli e scarsi frammenti, e sono incompleti l'inizio e la fine dell'opera); tratta di filosofia, diritto, aritmetica, medicina, storia e specialmente di linguistica e letteratura. Restauri alla legatura, con piccole integrazioni; tracce di sporco o qualche macchiolina brunita su alcune pagine all interno per il resto bell esemplare. Beautiful venetian binding in full brown calf with gilded decoration on the plates. (64), 591 numbered pages, initials engraved in the text. Grifo's typographical device on the title page and at the end of the volume. Noctes Atticae is the most important work of the Roman writer and jurist, so titled because it originated from notes taken by the author in the long winter evenings in a rustic house in Attica. It is a miscellaneous work (in 20 books) that has reached us in an almost complete form (the 8th book is missing, except for the chapter titles and a few fragments, and the beginning and the end of the work are incomplete); it deals with philosophy, law, arithmetic, medicine, history and especially linguistics and literature. Binding restorations, with small integrations. Traces of dirt on the first and last leaves, a few burnished spots on some pages inside, otherwise beautiful copy.

Très belle édition elzévirienne, dans la version de Gronovius, rare et recherchée.Cette compilation de l'aimable Aulu-Gelle, malheureusement oubliée de nos jours, fut un des piliers du "petit latin" pour des générations d'élèves, et avec raison : ses dix-neuf livres conservés (le VIIIe est perdu) fourmillent, dans un désordre et un négligé très étudiés, de détails et d'anecdotes sur tous les aspects de la vie antique, si bien qu'ils constituaient à la fois un excellent apprentissage du vocabulaire le plus varié, et des "realia" les moins abordés dans l'enseignement académique du latin.Willems, 1127.Très bel exemplaire.Exemplaire de Victor-Léon Rattier (1824-1902), sous-préfet de Doullens, avec vignette ex-libris de cuir cerise contrecollée sur les premières gardes. Sur cette dernière, figure la mention du château de Jeand?heurs (L?Isle-en-Rigault, dans la Meuse), acquis en 1858. Jeand?heurs avait été d?abord une abbaye de l?Ordre des chanoines réguliers de Prémontré, qui datait du XIIe siècle, ce qui explique la mention "Abbatia Janduriarum" sur l'ex-libris. À sa mort, son petit-neveu et héritier Charles-Achille Fould (1861-1926) mit en vente une première partie de la bibliothèque du château de Jeand?heurs, du mardi 3 au jeudi 5 juin 1913, en trois vacations, à l?Hôtel Drouot. Une deuxième vente se déroula du jeudi 17 au mercredi 23 juin 1920, en 6 vacations. Enfin, la troisième vente de la bibliothèque du château de Jeand?heurs eut lieu à l?Hôtel Drouot du samedi 8 au jeudi 13 avril 1922.L'ouvrage passa ensuite dans les collections du belge Alfred Lindeboom (1873-1939, vignette ex-libris armoriée), puis d'Yves Paillet (étiquette ex-libris).

GELLIUS, AULUS. Noctes atticae. Venice: Ioannes Gryphius, 1550. 8vo. [64], 591, [1] p. Elaborate woodcut initials. Neat modern vellum. A near fine copy. The Noctes Atticae is a random collection of essays compiled by Gellius (ca. ad 130-180?) for the amusement of his children. They cover a variety of topics, e.g., philosophy, history, language, and literature, preserve thousands of intriguing passages from works now lost, and include a number of interesting stories, among them Androclus and the Lion (5.14). This is one of many 16th-century editions of this popular author, and includes an especially striking example of John Gryphius's Griffon device on the last page. Schweiger, vol. I, p. 378.

Not a single copy in Rare Book Hub (Americana Exchange). KVK (Karlsruher Virtueller Katalog) refers only to copies in Italian libraries. Marbled boards. Printer's mark on the title, depicting a winged leopard (a kind of griffin) carrying a winged orb or ball. Woodcut initial at the beginning of each of the 20 books. Printed almost completely in italics. At the end is a 35 page list of Greek passages found in the text with their translation into Latin, called dictionum graecarum interpretatio) (Condition: Cover slightly worn, especially to the extremes; back slightly spotted and soiled with some faint pencil stripes. Ownership entry on the lower part of the title erased. A pinpoint wormhole in the right upper corner of the last 4 leaves, far away from the text) (Note: The Venetian publishing firm of the Scotto family printed in the 16th century in 2 fields, it specialised in the printing of music and texts of the Latin classics. The Scotto firm contributed also in the area of Aristotelian studies. The most important of this printing dynasty is Girolamo Scotto, or Hieronymus Scotus. He composed music himself, but he is best known as the most inflential music printer of the Renaissance. He has even a lemma in wikipedia. When Girolamo took over in 1539 the firm had already earned great finance with classic texts, Latin translations and commentaries by various humanists. He made however a huge fortune with mass produced music. Still he continued to print texts of classical authors. An example is this Gellius edition. It has some remarkable features, it looks exactly like a Gryphius edition. It imitates the handy small format, the lay-out, the italic fypeface, the catch-words and the lectiones variantes printed in the margins, of the Gellius editions which Gryphius had published earlier. The books of this Lyonaise firm were often cheap pirated reprints of successfull texts, which were sold all over Europe. It seems that the Scotto firm tried to imitate the Gryphius edition to join in its success. Scotto even had the nerve of repeating verbatim the title of the Gellius edition of Gryphius which was published in 1556. Remarkable is that the editor of the Scottus edition very often took the trouble of swapping the lectio varians printed in the margin of the Gryphius edition and the reading in the text. The Scotus edition repeats almost verbatim the dictionum graecarum interpretatio of the Gryphius edition at the end, including the Ad lectorem. Scotus perhaps produced this edition solely for the Italian market, for KVK records only copies in Italian libraries) (Provenance: Old name on the lower margin of the title erased, difficult to read: Caesaris Crispoliti Perugini. We found one Caesar Crispolitus, or Cesare Crispolti, 1563-1608, a Perugian local historian, a jurist and canon of the Perugian cathedral. He is best known for his Perugia augusta descritta which was published posthumously in 1648. He was once the owner of a manuscript now in the Biblioteca comunale Augusta of Perugia, Manoscritti, 1058. He is described there as I.U.D., Iuris Utriusque Doctor.

Upper corner of the last gatherings slightly waterstained. Paper somewhat yellowing) (Note: The Roman author Aulus Gellius, ca. 125-180 AD, was never counted as a major author in antiquity, nor later. His only work 'Noctes Atticae' or 'Attic Nights', is a miscellany that 'ranges from literature to law, from wondrous tales to moral philosophy; one of his favorite topics is the Latin language'. (.) The exposition, in a mildly archaizing but never difficult Latin, often takes the form of dialogues with or between culturally eminent persons whom Gellius had known'. It derives its name from the fact of its having been written during the long nights of a winter which the author spent in Attica as a young itinerant student. The Noctes Atticae were exploited by pagans and Christians alike in late antiquity. In medieval florilegia he is much quoted for piquant tales and moral sentiments. 'From Petrarch onward Gellius became a favorite author of the Renaissance'. 'More than 100 manuscripts were copied'. He was used as a valuable source of information on the Latin language, and had preserved numerous quotations from lost authors, which were presented with grace and elegance. Gellius became a model for the 'Miscellanea' of the Italian humanist Angelo Poliziano. 'In the 18th century, however, new canons of elegance caused his style to seem less attractive, and compilation sank to minor merit' (Quotations from 'The Classical Tradition', Cambr. Mass., 2010, p. 386/7) § The notes of Louis Carrion, latinized as Ludovicus Carrio (Brugensis), ca. 1547-1595, which are promised on the title page, are lacking in this edition. Carrion had promised the Parisian scholar/publisher Henri Estienne II, ca. 1530-1598, to manufacture notes for his Gellius edition. Estienne printed the text of Gellius, and waited eight months. In the meantime Carrion delivered material for only 7 leaves. Tired of waiting Estienne published his Gellius, replacing Carrion's notes with work of his own: 'Noctes aliquot Parisinae'. Ultimately Carrion sent Estienne notes concerning the first 24 chapters of the first book only, together 120 pages. These notes Estienne thereupon published separately in the same year. Most copies are like ours, in only a few copies both works have been bound together. § The 'Noctes Parisinae' are 27 in number, 7 of which are dedicated to Estienne's friend, the historian, politician and bookcollector Jacques Auguste de Thou, 1553-1617, who was in 1585 'maître des requêtes au parlement de Paris'. Estienne extols his friend 'for his erudition, and his extraordinary zeal for the collection of books: noticing the exquisite literary treasures in which his library abounds, his judgment in the selection of editions, his liberal disbursement in purchasing, and his profuse expenditure on binding and decoration'. (William Parr Greswell, 'A View of the Early Parisian Greek Press', London 1833, volume 2, p. 350) The 'Noctes Parisinae' opens with a defence of Gellius against attacks of the Spanish scholar Juan Luis Vives, who mentioned Gellius e.g. 'loquaculus sine eruditione'; and 'quae de significatu vocum disserit, sunt frivola, et plerumque imperita ac falsa'. (Opera, Basel 1555, Tom. I, p. 480/81)) (Provenance: In pencil on the front flyleaf: '15 sept. 1965', written by the Flemish linguist Walter Couvreur, 1914-1996, who was an Orientalist, and professor of Indoeuropean linguistics at the University of Gent.

A commonplace book compiled by Aulus Gellius in the second century, the Attic Nights received several editions, of which the most highly regarded is that of Johann Friedrich Gronovius (1611 1671), the then Professor of Greek at Leiden. Gronovius's text was commissioned by Louis Elzevir and published by him, though with neither the editor's name nor notes, in 1651; Jansson's edition appeared in the same year, closely copying Elzevir's engraved title and typesetting to capitalise on the widespread demand (evidently from as far as Oxford) for his elegant and carefully edited duodecimo editions.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1687 Greek Attic Nights Noctes Atticae ROME Philosophy Aulus Gellius GREECE Truth is the daughter of time Aulus Gellius, Noctes Atticae, XII A very rare and beautiful edition of Aulus Gellius Attic Nights . This book was a compilation of notes and shorter essays on grammar, philosophy, history, and antiquities which offer a glimpse into the cultures of both Greek and Roman life and society. Gellius began the work while he was living in Attica, Greece, but concluded the work in Rome. The rather disjunct contents include Gellius s observations and unusual interests found in books or overheard in conversation. This 1687 edition of Gellius was published in Lugduni Batavorum by Joannem de Vivie.
