Printer's device of Pierre de Saint André on the title page. These works of Sallust are a reprint of the Greek texts held by Aldo Manuce in Venice. The work is formed of two distinct parts the first is a Latin translation the second is composed of commentaries by Louis Carrion of Bruges and Sallust's texts in Greek. Louis Carrion was a specialist in the Greek language in the 16th century he contributed to numerous editions. 16th-century editions of Sallust appear to be rare only Oxford holds a similar copy and only the Russian National Library holds 3 works prior to 1500.

Gilt coat of arms of Amsterdam on both boards; Frontispiece by Wingendorp depicting the 'triumphus' of the Roman general Marius; in front of the cart walks the defeated king Jugurtha in chains. The frontispiece is dated 1689 Condition: Vellum soiled and somewhat worn. Prize removed. All 4 ties gone Note: 'One of the most widely read and influential of Roman historians along with Caesar Livy and Tacitus Sallust 86-34 BC has been studied quoted and imitated not only as a historian but also as a moral philosopher political thinker and stylist.' Until 1600 more than 200 editions of his work appeared. Sallust was used in the 16th and 17th century to support absolute theories of government. But 'on the other hand it was the republican Sallust 'ennemy of tyrants' whom John Milton admired and who bolstered the cause of liberty in the Lowlands during the war with Spain and later in France and on the American continent'. The Classical tradition Cambr. Mass. 2010 p. 856. Sallustius furnished indeed weapons to the supporters and opponents during the rebellion of the Netherlands against the Spaniards a war of independence that lasted 80 years from 1568 till 1648. § This edition is a socalled 'Variorum edition'. It offers a 'textus receptus' which is widely accepted accompanied with the commentary and the annotations of various specialists taken or excerpted from earlier useful normative or renewing editions. Editions like these 'cum notis Variorum' were useful but never broke new ground. The production of these sometimes overloaded editions was the specialty of Dutch scholars of the 17th and 18th century. The compilers seldom were great scholars but often hard working schoolmasters. Their involvement in publishing a new edition was limited to the necessary. The text of Sallustius is preceded by the chapter which J. Vossius had written on him in his 'De historicis latinis'. Then follow 'Judicia et Testimonia'. At the end of the text we find the 'Spicilegium in Sallustium' of Janus Mellerus Palmerius. This is a collection of notes on the 'Catilina' and 'Bellum Jugurthinum' which was first published in 1580. It consists of explanations and observations but most of all proposed emendations. Next to nothing is known about this scholar. Palmerius or Palmier was a Neolatin poet and scholar from Bruges. Van der Aa 15 p. 68 Collation: 8 26; A-2Q8 2R4 2S1 Photographs on request hardcover‎

Bound somewhat too tightly Note: This Venetian edition of Sallust of 1737 is a reissue of the Leipzig edition of the German classical scholar Gottlieb Cortius or Corte or Kortte which was published in Leipzig in 1724. Cortius born in 1698 made his name producing editions of Latin authors so-called 'Variorum editions'. These productions provided very extensive commentaries in the manner of the Dutch scholar Petrus Burmannus. From 1726 till his death in 1731 Cortius was professor of law at the University of Leipzig. His most important contribution to classical scholarship is his edition of Sallust of 1724. It is an elaborate and critical edition meant for those who wish to enter minutely into all the niceties of grammatical construction and historical illustration. For the text Cortius consulted 30 manuscripts and a lot of important earlier editions 'with an accuracy and precision that reflects distinguished credit on the editor'. Dibdin Cortius was furthermore the first editor to bring the fragments in a more or less chronological order. After the works of Sallust Cortius added 'De bellis Civilibus' of the late antique historian Julius Exsuperantius a treatise that was found at the end of Sallust in an old manuscript 'ex bibliotheca Pithoeana'. p. 913 It is in fact a rhetorical 'breviarium' of Sallust's 'Historiae'. This 'breviarium' is followed by a 'Declamatio contra Lucium Sergium Catilinam' which we now ascribe to the Roman rhetorician Marcus Porcius Latro died 4 B.C. Some assume that Porcius Latro is also the author of the Orations of Sallust against Cicero and of Cicero against Sallust. § 'One of the most widely read and influential of Roman historians along with Caesar Livy and Tacitus Sallust 86-34 BC has been studied quoted and imitated not only as a historian but also as a moral philosopher political thinker and stylist'. Sallust was used in the 16th and 17th century to support absolute theories of government. But on the other hand Sallust was also portrayed as a republican and ennemy of tyrants. § Yet Sallustius preached party politics under a cloak of grave and philosophic impartiality. This edition of 1737 contains an influential monograph of the Italian humanist Constanzo Felice of Castel Durante first published in Rome in 1518 which questioned this impartiality. In his 'Historia conjurationis Catilinariae non pauca a Sallustio praetermissa continens' part 2 p. 73/106 in this edition he stands up against Catilina and Caesar in defence of Cicero. Despite his appeals to principles of historical objectivity however Constantius Felicius who was a product of the Renaissance Ciceronian movement was chiefly concerned with enhancing Cicero's role in the events during the 'Coniuratio Catilinae' promoting his superior rhetoric. This monograph influenced in the 19th century German historians like Theodor Mommsen and Eduard Schwartz who launched an attack on Sallust's credibility as an historian. Felicius' monograph on the 'Coniuratio Catilinae' was long time seen as an apology for Caesar and the work of a political pamphleteer written in support of a conservative ideology.

Ulery Jr. 'Constantius Felicius Durantinus and the Renaissance Origins of Anti-Sallustian Criticism' in International Journal of the Classical Tradition Vol. 1 No. 3 Winter 1995 p. 29-56 Collation: pi2; -24 -24; A-5G4 chi1 5H-6C4 2chi2 a-t4 leaf t4 blank Photographs on request Heavy book may require extra shipping costs hardcover‎

Overlapping vellum 24 cm Ref: STCN ppn 840276850; Brunet 618777; Ebert 20119; Graesse 6/1249 Details: Nice and clean copy. Woodcut printer's device on the title depicting a man who tries to clime a tree the motto reads: 'Ardua quae pulchra' a variant of the wellknown Platonic Adagium of Erasmus 'Difficiliora quae pulchra'. Adagia 1012III12 Beautiful engraved portrait of Salmasius executed and engraved by J. Tangena and I. Snijderhoef. Woodcut initials. At the end of p. 294 has been pasted a slip with 15 lines of corrigenda Condition: Vellum age-toned. Back soiled Note: The French scholar Claude de Saumaise latinized Claudius Salmasius 1588-1653 was a prolific author and he distinguished himself in his editions as a textual critic and erudite commentator. He was easy to get along with but murderous on paper. In 1623 he was appointed as the successor of Scaliger at the University of Leiden a city he was going to hate. When his Leiden colleague Daniel Heinsius 1580-1655 published his 'Sacrae Exercitationes ad Novum Testamentum' in 1639 Salmasius saw an opportunity to take 'revenge on the man he viewed as the leader of the coterie opposing him at Leiden'. P.R. Sellin 'Daniel Heinsius and Stuart England' Leiden/Oxford 1968 p. 43 In the preface of his 'De Modo Usurarum' of 1639 Salmasius ridiculed Heinsius' description of the 'koinê' as 'lingua Hellenistica'. A flurry of polemics followed. In this quarrel the printer Maire sided with Salmasius in his attempts to destroy Heinsius' integrity. Idem p. 47 The next step in the ongoing quarrel between Daniel Heinsius once the favourite of Scaliger and Salmasius came in 1643 when Salmasius attacked Heinsius anonymously in his 'Funus linguae Hellenisticae'. And with a still fiercer attack in 'De Hellenistica commentarius controversiam de lingua Hellenistica decidens' published in the same year 1643 Salmasius mounted a full-scale assault on Heinsius' position on the 'koinê'. In it Salmasius contended that the language of the Greek Scriptures was not a separate dialect but the ordinary Greek of his time. Sandys A History of Classical Scholarhip N.Y. 1964 volume 2 284/86 § The letters of Salmasius were collected and edited by the young promising Dutch student theology Anthony Clement Antonius Clementius 1533-1657. NNBW 1606/07 and his article in encyclopedievanzeeland.nl The collection consisting of 125 letters written before 1638 opens with a biographic eulogy and a bibliography of Salmasius of 72 pages. The recipients of the letters are amongst others Johannes Beverovicius Johannes Dallaeus Jacobus Golius J.F. Gronovius H. Grotius I.F. Peireskius P. Puteanus and I.G. Vossius. At the end of the 125th letter p. 294 the editor announces a second volume of letters till 1640. The project was however delayed he tells due to the sudden departure to Germany of the publisher Wyngaerden. Nothing came of it owing to the premature death of the editor. § The editor added after letter 125 two long treatises disguised as letters: Salmasius' 'Epistola de regionibus et ecclesiis suburbicariis' first published in 1619; and 'Claudii Salmasii ad Aegidium Menagium epistola super Herode infanticida V.C. Tragoedia et censura Balsacii'. This second letter is of interest concerning Salmasius controversy with Heinsius. It was first published in Paris in 1644 and is a polemic against Daniel Heinsius' biblical tragedy 'Herodes infanticida' the Massacre of the Innocents a tragedy that he published in Leiden in 1632. This tragedy was attacked in 1636 by the French polemicist poet and literary theoretician J.-L. Guez de Balzac; and in 1642 a French minister Jean de Croï published a reaction on Balzac's fierce attack in defence of Heinsius. Which reaction lead to a long letter written by a raging Salmasius to the French poet and classical scholar Gilles Ménage Aegidius Menagius '. super Herode infanticida V.C. Tragoedia et censura Balsacii' in which he came to the rescue of Balzac and fiercely attacked his enemy Daniel Heinsius Collation: -104 including the portrait; A-2O4 leaf 2O4 verso blank ;a-h4 i2 chi1; A-K4 leaf K4 & K3 verso blank Photographs on request hardcover‎

Sellin p. 47 With his De lingua Hellenistica et origine ac dialectis graecae linguae of 1643 Salmasius mounted a full-scale assault on Heinsius position on the koinê followed in the same year by a still fiercer attack De Hellenistica commentarius controversiam de linguae hellenistica decidens and this anonymously published attack on his colleague the Funus Linguae Hellenisticae. In it Salmasius contended that the language of the Greek Scriptures was not a separate dialect but the ordinary Greek of his time. Sandys A History of Classical Scholarhip N.Y. 1964 volume 2 284/86 Concerning the De Hellenistica commentarius which was published by Elzevier and the Funus Linguae Latinae both written by Salmasius we quote part of an excellent note of Willems p. 138 no. 558: 'On appelait Hellénistes les Juifs dispersés parmi les Grecs surtout ceux qui habitaient Alexandrie et parlaient habituellement le grec. Partant de là certains savants à l'exemple de Daniel Heinsius dans son Aristarchus sacer s'étaient crus autorisés désigner sous le nom d'hellénistique le langage mêlé d'expressions et de tours de phrases hébraïques qui était usité parmi ces mêmes Juifs et dans lequel sont écrits la version des Septante et le Nouveau Testament. Saumaise qui trouvait l'expression impropre composa ce gros volume De Hellenistica commentarius contre ceux qu'il appelle les Hellénisticaires et notamment contre Daniel Heinsius quoique celui-ci ne soit pas nominativement désigné. Il n'en resta pas là; car dès la même année il donna encore le Funus linguae hellenisticae suivi de l'Ossilegium hellenisticae Lugd. Bat. J. Maire 1643. L'auteur a beau jeu pour démontrer que le terme d'hellénistique est inconnu à toute l'antiquité que cette langue ne constitue pas à proprement parler un dialecte spécial qu'il n'y a en grec que quatre dialectes ou cinq si l'on y comprend la langue commune &c. A cet égard son livre est plein de vues nouvelles et ingénieuses dont les grammairiens ont fait leur profit. Mais le fait que les livres saints sont écrits en un idiome dont les mots sont grecs et la phrase hébraïque n'en subsiste pas moins et Saumaise en convient. . Quoi qu'il en soit le mot qui échauffait si fort la bile de Saumaise a fait fortune car les récents linguistes Matthiae Kühner &c n'ont pas fait difficulté de l'admettre' Provenance: On the front pastedown in pencil: 'J. v.
