1542ref. 002002Lyon Lugdunum: Apud Seb. Gryphium Sébastien Gryphe 1542. Hardcover. Good. First Gryphius Edition with Rabirius Commentaries. Octavo 157 x 100 mm. pp. 221 2 blanks 1 terminal printer's device leaf. Signatures: a-o complete. Features Gryphe's famous woodcut device on the title page depicting a winged griffin on a plinth repeated as a large device on the final terminal leaf. Elegant humanistic italic type used throughout. Bound in full contemporary vellum with blind-stamped titles to the spine; in good condition with some natural age-toning and light bubbling to the vellum surface but structurally sound and completely unrestored. Internally there are old water stains present to many pages becoming slightly more noticeable in the latter half; however the paper remains stable and all text is perfectly legible. A highly desirable untouched survival of a 16th-century schoolbook notoriously prone to destruction by its student users. Very Rare in period vellum. This landmark Renaissance syntax textbook represents a secret collaboration of humanism. Originally drafted by William Lily St. Paul's School at the request of Dean John Colet it was heavily revised and polished by Erasmus. Out of mutual modesty both scholars initially declined sole credit though it ultimately circulated under Erasmus's name across Europe. This scarce 1543 Lyon printing is enhanced by the extensive classical commentaries of the French jurist Junien de Rabiers Junius Rabirius. Apud Seb. Gryphium (Sébastien Gryphe) hardcover
