The politician and then tyrant Caesar enjoyed popularity but was however also controversial in Europe that was torn apart by bloody religious and civil wars. His dictatorship remained problematic though some justified his usurpation of power as the only way out of turmoils of the Roman republic. � This solid and valuable edition of 1737 comprehending the commentaries of Vossius Davis and Clarke is a great step forward for the text of Caesar. It was produced by the Dutch classical scholar Franciscus Oudendorp 1696-1761 and immediately eclipsed all preceding editions. Oudendorp was according to Sandys the last of the great latinists of his age. For the last 20 years of his life he was professor of Eloquence Latin and History at the University of Leiden. He published also indispensable editions of Apuleius and Lucan. 'His 1737 edition of Caesar reveals a concern hitherto almost unknown with the collecting and sifting of large numbers of variants. He drew up a list of some forty codices that had been consulted either by him or by others at his request. . Oudendorp made a valiant attempt to cope with many manuscripts his being the first serious attempt at 'recensio'. Oudendorp's edition was so authoritative and had such an impact that for over a hundred years few scholars dared to tread in the same path'. V. Brown 'The Textual Transmission of Caesar's Civil War' Leiden 1972 p. 5 This period came to an end in 1847 with the first modern critical edition of Karl Nipperdey Provenance: Armorial bookplate of 'Van der Veen Hondius' on the front flyleaf.

Small marginal wormhole in the upper endpapers and the first 4 leaves not affecting the text. Lower edge of the frontispiece chipped. A few small waterstains on the right edge of the first 100 p. Some foxing in places. A few leaves are browning. A few small inkstains. The index to the first volume has erroneously been bound at the end of the second volume Note: Throughout the 17th and 18th century in Europe the Roman historian Julius Caesar 100-44 B.C. remained central to the education of the sons of the elite who trained for public life. He figured as an exemplary military leader. The politician and then tyrant Caesar however was much more controversial in Europe that was torn apart by bloody religious and civil wars. His dictatorship remained problematic though some justified his usurpation of power as the only way out of turmoils of the Roman republic. � This Caesar of 1669 is an augmented reissue of an edition of 1606 also published in Frankfurt. It contains Caesar's text and all previously printed commentaries on Caesar and also several important articles on Caesar by leading scholars. The most conspicuous feature of both editions is however the Greek translation which accompanies the Latin text of the 7 books of the 'Bellum Gallicum'. The Greek translation was printed in 1606 for the first time and the Greek manuscript came as the title says from the library of the French publisher and book collector Paul P�tau Paulus Petavius in Latin. The German bibliographer Ernesti 1707-1781 thinks following a suggestion of the French scholar J.J. Scaliger 1540-1609 that the byzantine scholar/poet Maximus Planudes ca. 1255-ca. 1305 is the translator. This suggestion looks reasonable since Planudes had made also Greek translations of Cicero's 'Somnium Scipionis' and Ovid's 'Metamorphoses' and 'Heroides'. The German polyhistor Daniel Georg Morhof 1639-1691 suggested the 15th century Greek Theodorus Gaza. The German bibliographer Johann Georg Theodor Graesse 1814-1885 followed another lead; he suspected Petavius himself: 'On sait maintenant qu'elle a �t� faite sur l'�dition de Rob. Estienne de 1514 probablement par le P. Petau lui-m�me'. In 1946 it was argued that the attribution to Planudes is impossible and it is suggested that the translator might well be the Italian author Piero Strozzi 1500-1558. Petavius is ruled out. Lloyd W. Daly 'The Greek Version of Caesar's Gallic War' in 'Transactions and Proceedings of the American Philological Association' Vol. 77 1946 p. 78-82 � Schweiger calls the editions of 1606 and 1669 'sch�tzbar' because of the notes of Rhellicanus Glareanus Glandorp Camerarius Brutus Manutius Sambucus Ursinus Ciacconius Hotmanus and Brantius which are to be found in no other edition. We also find 16 pages filled with notes of Jungermann on the Greek translation. 'Both the text and the notes do great credit to the refined taste and erudition of Jungermann'. Dibdin Jungermann also did the same for Caesar what Janus Gruterus had done for Livy and Tacitus he divided the text up into capita to make the text easier accessible. Gottfried Jungermann was born in Leipzig in 1577 or 1578 and died in 1610. His mother was a daughter of the famous Joachim Camerarius 1500-1574. In 1605 he published an edition of Longus and in 1608 of Herodotus. His work on the ancient lexicographer Pollux had to wait one century for publication. In 1706 the Dutch classical scholar Hemsterhuis 1685-1766 published his contributions in his edition of Pollux.

‎CAESAR.‎

‎C. Julius Cesars Aantekeningen der Gallische Burgerlyke Alexandrynsche Africaansche en Hispanische oorlogen. Uit het Latyn verduischt door Abraham Bogaert. Met kopere plaaten verciert.‎

‎Amsterdam By Nicolaas Ten Hoorn Boekverkoper 1709. 8vo. 2 volumes in 1: XVI341 recte 33926 index3 blank; IV38130 index3 blank p. 12 engraved plates of which 4 folding Vellum 16.5 cm Ref: STCN ppn 177072024; Geerebaert 983; OiN p. 127; Schweiger 255 Details: 5 thongs laced through the joints. Engraved printer's device on the title it depicts a kind of medal with a resting Muse on it; at her feet a wreath an opened book and a lyre; the legend reads: 'Proficit et recreat'; the medal rests on a collection of musical instruments and theatrical objects. The plates are in fine condition. The first plate of volume 1 is a portrait of Caesar below his portrait is the famous murder scene; first plate of volume 2 is a portrait of Pompeius below his portrait the murder of Pompeius Condition: Vellum soiled. Front joint partly split. Tiny hole in the vellum at the outer edge of the upper board. Front hinge cracking but strong. Front flyleaf worn. First 3 gatherings with a faint waterstain. Flyleaf at the end removed Note: Throughout the 17th and 18th century in Europe the Roman historian Julius Caesar 100-44 B.C. remained central to the education of the sons of the elite who trained for public life. He figured as an exemplary military leader. The politician and then tyrant Caesar however was much more controversial in Europe that was torn apart by bloody religious and civil wars. His dictatorship remained problematic though some justified his usurpation of power as the only way out of turmoils of the Roman republic. In the Dutch republic Caesar's most stubborn opponent the senator and patriot Marcus Porcius Cato Uticensis the defender of republican freedom was more appreciated. In the beginning of the 18th century however the mood in the Low Countries was different. The Dutch republic was involved in the War of Spanish Succession 1701-1713 a war between a coalition of several European powers the Dutch republic Britain Prussia and Portugal called the Great Alliance and the kingdoms of France and Spain. France was in that time by far the greatest power in Europe and therefore the Alliance tried to prevent further expansion in the South of Europe and in the America's. In 1708 the French army started an offensive in the Southern part of the Netherlands where the Dutch priority had been to secure their barrier fortress system. The French took Brugge and Ghent by storm. The British army and the forces of the Dutch republic under Marlborough succeeded in defeating the French and to recapture the South of the Low Countries. During this War of Succession the Dutch army reached its greatest expansion 120.000 men. The allied forces finally succeeded in preventing that France and Spain would be governed jointly by the French king Louis XIV. � The dedicatee of this translation of Caesar Commentarii is the 'Raadspensionaris' Prime Minister of the Dutch Republic Antonius Heinsius 'de tong der zeven Staaten / Daar Holland zich mag veilig op verlaaten / In 't midden van den felsten oorlogsgloet / Die Vrankryk nu zal lessen met zyn bloed.' p. 2 recto He will let the French pay with their blood. The translator Abraham Bogaert exhorts Heinsius to take the field once again and follow the example of Caesar. 'Gelust het u ten slagvelde in te tre�n / Te stappen langs een berg van lyken heen / En Cesars tred te volgen daar zyne enkels / In 't bloed staan op der Gallen groove schenkels.' p. 2 verso The French are on the verge of collapse he rymes. 'Wat staaren niet de Gallen op zyn werken op Schildpat Ram en Blyde Wal en Gracht / En grof Geschut en Toorens groot van kracht!' Ibidem idem. Bogaert hopes that the example of Caesar and also his own translation will inspire the 'Raadspensionaris' Heinsius. 'Zo Cesar nu . / Uw doorziende oog in 't Neerduitsch kan bekooren / Dan zal zyn naam met groter luister glooren / Zyn dierbaare asch zich roeren en in 't bloed / Des Bataviers ontsteken eenen moed / Om Lodewyk ten rykstroone uit te klinken'. p. 3 verso In the following introduction Bogaert calls Caesar the 'grootste der Veldheeren' 'Een Held zeker wiens beleid onnavorschelyk wiens dapperheid onnavolgelyk is en die met dezelve kracht van geest heeft gesprooken en geschreeven met welke hij geoorloogt heeft'. p. 4 recto His language and style is exemplary. 'Zyne taale is de zuiverste der Latynen zyne style zacht en teder; en heeft hoe eenvoudig iets edelers dan Tactius met al de pracht zyner woorden'. Idem ibidem A soldier or politician will find in Caesar all he needs 'men vind daar in al 't geene nodig is om volkome Veldheeren en deftige Staatkundigen te maaken'. p. 5 recto Caesar work is a book of hours Getyboek for soldiers. Bogaert used for his translation the edition of Caesar published in 1606 in Leiden by Plantin Raphalengius. p. 6 verso � Abraham Bogaert 1663-1727 was a well known Dutch playwright and poet. He translated also Juvenalis 1693 Suetonius 1699 and Valerius Maximus 1721. NNBW 3131/32 The ancient Roman republic did not seem remote or exotic to Bogaert.
