Cicero, Marcus Tullius.
M. TULLII CICERONIS ORATIONUM. cum optimis ac postremis exemplaribus accurate collatus. Tomus I-II.
pp. 614; 550. Some slight worming with loss of a few letters. Some old age stain. Latin text. Small 24mo. 135 mm. Plain old vellum binding. Early manuscript ownerships of Jac: Albani Gibbesij, M.D. Rome, 1653. This is certainly James Alban Gibbes or Ghibbes (1611-1677), a Latin poet, who was probably born at Valognes in France, the son of English parents. His father, William Gibbes of Bristol, enjoyed a successful medical practice in England, eventually acting as physician to Queen Henrietta Maria. James was sent abroad to receive a Roman Catholic education.He subsequently travelled in the Low Countries, Spain, Germany, and Italy. Like many other youthful travellers, Gibbes took advantage of the opportunity to study at some of the universities along his route, notably in Padua (from November 1641), which had a distinguished medical faculty. In 1644 Gibbes moved to Rome; for two years he acted as tutor to Almerico, son of Francis, duke of Modena. This employment did not, however, prevent him from taking additional patrons, including Cardinal Luigi Capponi, and medical positions. Gibbes flattered in Latin verse each of the various popes under whom he lived, receiving favours from them in return. Gibbes began to publish his Latin poems and orations in the 1650s. `Clementia' (composed in 1653, the year he signed this book), is an ironic poetic complaint that he had been turned down for the post of keeper at the Vatican Library. Gibbes's poetic fame spread outside Rome. Few British authors enjoyed such a great continental reputation as a poet. Two volumes of three. Especially interesting because of the association with Gibbes, who may have intended this set as a gift to the English College at St Omer. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SMALL BOX 9 Classics.

Cicero; David Stockton
THIRTY-FIVE LETTERS OF CICERO Selected and Edited with Introductions and Notes
Former owner's name to titlepage. Light shelfwear. ; These letters have been selected to show Cicero in his mature years from 65 to 44 B. C. They have not been chosen to illustrate details of social life and manners (though such details inevitably occur in them) : the main emphasis is political, and the linking commentary that precedes each letter is designed to set it against the political background. The commentary is intended to supply, not merely assist with the translation of the Latin and understanding of the syntax, but more particularly the indispensable background of social and historical information without which the study of Cicero’s letters would be largely wasted labor. The introduction too, while sketching the career of Cicero, also clarifies the political background of the period. In general, this edition will serve not merely as an introduction to Cicero’s letters, but as giving some substance and immediacy to the study of the history of the late Republic. The text is that of the Oxford edition, but care has been taken to produce a ‘clean’ text and occasionally different readings have been admitted from those printed in the Oxford text (though these are generally noted and justified in the commentary). There are two appendices (on the Roman calendar and on Roman money) , an index of proper names and of subject-matter, and a select vocabulary. David Stockton (1925-2012) attended the Emanuel School and in 1943 was conscripted into the Royal Navy and worked on Japanese codes at Bletchley Park. A colleague at Brasenose observed that this experience may have honed his formidable skills at solving crosswords, a devotion to which was shared by Inspector Morse author Colin Dexter. After the war Stockton won an open scholarship to read Classics at Magdalen College and went onto become a Fellow and Tutor at Brasenose College. His wide-ranging body of work includes what is widely regarded as the leading study on Cicero published in the 20th century.; 241 pages
