Description

With woodcut printer's device on title. Printed in Italics. 271 pp. 16mo. Contemp. calf, gilt ornament on covers, edges gilt (skilful repair to head of spine). From the collection of Hendrik D. L. Vervliet. Lyon, Sebastian Gryphius, 1547. Rare edition of the works of the historian Sallustius (86 B.C. - c. 34 B.C.) printed by Gryphius. The "Coniuratio Catilinae" deals with the conspiracy of Catiline, while the "Bellum Iugurthinum" concerns the successsion in Numidia. The attribution of the "Declamatio contra Catilinam" to Marcus Porcius Latro (fl. late 1st cent. B.C.) is most probably erroneous. - Old ms. name and stamp on title, light browning throughout. - Baudrier VIII, p. 211; cf. Brunet V, 85; not in STC (French), Adams, or Ebert. CLASSICS ;
