First Aldine edition and the first complete edition of Theocritus printing 12 of the 30 Idylls here for the first time; the first edition of HESIOD'S THEOGONY; second edition of his WORKS AND DAYS; and first editions of most of the other minor works enumerated below; and first setting of quires £I °E F and £K °E G. 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.

1495réf. 74RD10G5BNTUVenice: Aldus Manutius 1495. Modern red morocco sewn on 5 supports gold- and blind-blocked red sprinkled edges. Folio. With 8 fine woodcut headpieces 2 by the famous Poliphilus master plus 29 repeats and 23 woodcut outline interlaced initials 3 series: 3-line 5-line and 7-line plus 16 repeats. Rare first issue of the first and only edition of a collection of Greek works many of the individual works appearing here in their first editions: one of the first books produced by the famous printer-publisher Aldus Manutius published less than a year after his first book. In fact Aldus printed only one complete book before the present edition though he also issued the first parts of two others all in Greek and published Bembo's Latin De Aetna in the same month.The first editions in the present collection include 12 of the Ecloques of Theocritus Hesiod's Theogonia or De generatione deorum and selections from the Greek gnomic poets. It is the most interesting of all Aldine Greek editions containing a wide variety of linguistic forms and packed with mythological or moralizing passages and as such highly interesting for the history of education and of humanism in general and the beginning of the study of Greek language and literature in particular. There are two issues of the present edition and the present first issue is the rarer. With armorial bookplate on the last leaf below the colophon. In very good condition and with large margins with the first 2 and last 2 leaves somewhat foxed a few leaves with small marginal worm holes along the foot edge or very faint marginal water stains none approaching the text. One of the most important books and nearly the first printed by Aldus Manutius in the rare first issue.l BMC V554-555; BN Paris T101; BSB T148; Essling 888; Goff T144; Hoffmann III 473-474; IDL 4302; IGI 9497; Plelechet/Polain 11059; Renouard p. 1495 no. 3 'éd. très rare'; Sander 7235; Sheehan Vaticana T48; UCLA 7; Walsh Harvard 2635-2637; not in Polain; cf.

1757réf. 39157Berlin: Gottlieb August Lange. Very Good-. First Edition. Hardcover. Experience the pleasure of reading and appreciating this actual printed item. It has its own physical history that imbues it with a character lacking in ephemeral electronic renderings.; Small 8vo; 9 p.l. & 140 pages; Contemporary pattern printed paper-covered boards green paper label on spine titled in ms. OCLC: 504805539 First edition of this translation into German verse of Theocritus a third century B.C. poet usually thought of as the creator of ancient Greek bucolic poetry. There is a faint ink signature of a previous owner at the blank top margin of the title page. The paper is somewhat toned throughout with one brief ink mark in the text along with a few blots in the margins and the blank top corner of the last leaf is folded down without loss. The Idylls are grouped here as usual with works by Moschus and Bion. During his brief lifetime 1730-1761 the translator Christian Gottlieb Lieberkühn studied theology at the University of Halle preparing a dissertation under Siegmund Jakob Baumgarten. He served in the Prussian Army during the Silesian Wars and as a chaplin during the Seven Years War. Somehow he found the time to publish at least five original literary works and also earned a reputation as a translator. In addition to the present translation of Theokritos Moschus and Bion Lieberkühn also published a translation of the Pastorals of Publius Vergilius Maro and the French text of Georg Ludvig von Bar's 'Epitre diverses sur des subjets diverse.' . 1757.
