1495rif. 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.

A very nice copy of the famous Warton Theocritus reputed to be one of the most elegant editions ever published by Oxford University’s Clarendon Press. Thomas Warton 1728-1790 Oxford Professor of Poetry and later Poet Laureate wrote satirical verse but also maintained a talent for serious scholarship earning considerable respect for his efforts in this edition: ‘a very splendid edition. every lover of Greek literature is under great obligations to the very learned and ingenious Mr. Warton for this magnificant edition of Theocritus’ Harwood quot. in Dibdin. There are also contributions from the brilliant but difficult scholar Jonathan Toup 1713-1785. Together here with Warton’s edition is an appendix separately published two years later and hence rarely found though explicitly intended to accompany the main text. This copy is elegantly bound by Johann Bohn 1757-1843 German emigre bookbinder likely c. 1810 - Bohn established himself on Frith Street in 1795 and by the late 1810s had shifted focus to bookselling and the binding was plausibly done for Thomas Gaisford 1779-1855 who reached the position of Regius Professor of Greek at Oxford in 1811. Gaisford’s bookplate is absent but the copy was among books recently dispersed by a branch of descendants and Theocritus was an author Gaisford edited for his Poetae Minores Graeci 1814-1820.
