A handsome set. $1250. Later Gronov edition. With side-notes and index. Of all his numerous works De Jure Belli ac Pacis will always be considered Grotius' magnum opus the work upon which his reputation most solidly rests. "The distinction between religion and law or morality is not clearly made but Grotius' principle of an immutable law which God can no more alter than a mathematical axiom was the first expression of the droit naturel the natural law which exercised the great political theorists of the eighteenth century and is the foundation of modern international law" Carter and Muir. The first Gronov edition one of the most important editions of Grotius was published in 1663. Our 1712 copy includes Mare Liberum or Freedom of the Seas 1609 Grotius's influential treatise on maritime law and the right of free navigation. As indicated by his title Grotius's study is in three parts designated "three books" Libri Tres. An owner of this copy took that statement literally and had it bound as a three-book set. The index was also moved to the beginning of the first book. Carter and Muir Printing and the Mind of Man 125. Ter Muelen and Dierma. unknown

The cover features a strong design by Peet Aren 1889-1970 a prominent member of the Tartu school of visual arts in the 1920s whose prolific work as a graphic designer and painter was influenced by German Expressionism and Constructivism. The present design combines elements of both alluding both to the play's Greek setting and to modernity through a dynamic arrangement of intersecting flashes of lightning or electricity.
