réf. elala3432Amsterdam: Marc Michel Rey 1769. First Edition in French translated by Jesuit priest Jean Nicolas Grou 1731-1803 of Plato’s last work left uncompleted at his death. As opposed to the ideal state described in his Republic the Laws presents a practical plan for a ‘second best’ constitution and state. “Under it the elite may possess modest estates and private families are allowed. The lower ranks of society now have some political rights and powers though careful regulations ensure that they will not attain political control. The rulers though decently educated are not required to be philosophers. The women are not warriors. Much of the Laws is a sort of Blue Book in which detailed rules and regulations are laid down for the conduct of elections legal proceedings religious ceremonies markets schools and irrigation…In its concrete legal social and administrative prescriptions…students of Greek history and politics can find a good deal of interest. For inevitably Plato sometimes copies and often just improves on laws regulations codes customs and expedients already obtaining in Athens or other Greek states. Political actualities can be read through Plato’s political recommendations…”.

The rare first Italian-language edition of The Republic one of the most influential works of philosophy and political theory both historically and intellectually. The Italian translation was prepared by the physician Panfilo Florimbene of Frossombone who based his work on a Greek source text. He dedicated the translation to the Florentine nobleman Francesco Clementi accompanying it with a lengthy and important dedicatory letter. To aid comprehension Florimbene provided an Argument before each book summarizing the key teachings of the corresponding dialogue Bongi I 454. The Republic is Plato's best-known work offering a profound examination of political and ethical justice alongside a detailed vision of the ideal state and its governance.

The title page is particularly attractive with a finely engraved view of the Sheldonian Theatre the Oxford University printing house from which the book was issued.Institutional and modern auction catalogues attribute the editing of the 1711 Symposia to Henry Aldrich. Aldrich died in December 1710 making this one of the classical works associated with his scholarship to appear immediately after his death. An early nineteenth-century auction catalogue unusually records the edition as a Fairfax; the precise basis and identity behind that attribution have not been established and Fairfax is therefore not retained here as a co-editor.The present copy is preserved in an appealing contemporary panelled calf binding and is distinguished by an important manuscript provenance from the Oxford classical milieu of the 1740s.PROVENANCEVery probably Edwin Sandys 17261797 later 2nd Baron Sandys; acquired in 1747 as a gift from his very dear friend Ant.

The book also contains a wealth of argument on subsidiary topics-the language of the dialogue its date and place in Plato's development and its relation to earlier and later Greek thought in general. -- AUTHOR: Dr Chappell is Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Dundee. -- with a bonus offer--; 520-Chapp; Chappell Timothy.
