ref. 12594Collection bilingue classique. En dépit, ou plutôt à cause de « l'illusion réaliste que suscitent les Idylles, rien n'est plus difficile à cerner, dans leur évidence apparente, que Théocrite et son univers poétique, d'autant que ces « bulles légères d'imaginaire que diaprent d'infinies réminiscences littéraires, chefs-d'œuvre où se fondent en un mélange unique art et nature, ont été à leur tour reprises et réinterprétées par toute la tradition pastorale. Pour tenter d'éclairer l'esthétique propre du poète grec aussi bien que les métamorphoses ultérieures d'un genre alors naissant, ce volume réunit les onze premières Idylles transmises dans le corpus théocritéen, celles dont s'est inspiré Virgile pour construire son propre monde des Églogues.

Title in Greek and Roman introduction by Aldus in Latin; text entirely in Greek. Woodcut decorated initials and floral or strapwork headpieces ILLUMINATED THROUGHOUT IN COLORS AND GOLD IN A CONTEMPORARY HAND. 140 leaves. 1 vols. Folio 315 x 210 mm. First Aldine and first complete edition of the Idylls of Theocritus of which 12 appear here for the first time also including the first edition in the original Greek of Hesiod's Theogony and Shield of Hercules and the elegies of Theognis as well as the second edition of Hesiod's Works and Days which were first printed in Milan circa 1480. This is the first setting of gatherings zeta.F and theta.G with the text uncorrected. Not only is this copy beautifully colored in a contemporary hand none such appear in ABPC for the last 35 years and we are unable to find any institutional copies with coloring but the copy is notable as well for profuse neat contemporary marginalia mostly in Latin but often in Greek which fill the book. The marginal annotations are particularly extensive in the first two Idylls where typically underscored words are explained in the margins; occasionally an interlinear Latin word is provided beneath the Greek in an even smaller but always clear hand. The notes themselves are mostly philological in scope with notations on unusual Doric Theocritus's dialect forms e.g. the Doric form for the preposition 'πpòs' being 'πotì' the identification of parts of speech and grammatical forms poetic usage etc. Especially notable too are frequent comparisons and cross references to passages from Vergil's Eclogues. In the famous Idyll 2 "Pharmaceutria" where a spurned maiden utters incantations to bring her man back home there now seem to be two distinct hands and the notes are particularly frequent and copious. The first note reads: "Unde sumpta est Verg. Pharmaceutria" whence Vergil got his Pharmaceutria. A beautiful copy of a rare and important book with fascinating early annotations.

ref. B9780911198058Paperback / softback. New. These thirty Idylls written by the Sicilian Theokritos in the third century B.C. present the charms of rustic life in learned polished verse aimed at a sophisticated audience. A bucolic paradise is seen "through the eyes of city men going to the harvest festival for a holiday to rest their bodies and minds for awhile in nature's beauty and bounty-not unprovided with well-aged wine." In this handsome volume which won the Best Poetry Award at the 1963 Indiana Author's Day Professor Mills translates them into modern English verse that preserves the pastoral quality of the original but emphasizes those qualities of Theokritos that speak most directly to the modern reader. paperback
