1713Best.-Nr. 4638London: Printed for E. Curll 1713. ii iv 60 105 3 4 ads frontispiece. Bound without the portrait of Creech found in some copies. Contemporary Cambridge-style panelled calf red morocco label. Lightly toned some soiling. Extremities rubbed a few scrapes joints cracking at head of spine. The first edition of Creech’s translation of Theocritus by the famously unscrupulous publisher Edmund Curll following its 1684 Oxford first appearance. Curll’s edition was reissued in 1721 with a cancel title-page suggesting that it did not sell as well as Curll may have hoped. The BL copy has two engraved portraits one of Creech and one of Theocritus but the copies in Leeds and Oxford appear to have only one so it may have been issued thus. ESTC T138189. Printed for E. Curll unknown

1978Reprint of 1931 edition. ; The Garland Library of Latin Poetry; 12mo 7" - 7½" tall; 284 pages; "Epyllion" is the term coined by modern scholars for a relatively short poem on a mythological theme otherwise appropriate to longer epic. One of its recurrent characteristics is "ekphrasis", the telling of one myth encapsulated within the context of another, and the two thematically or symbolically linked to offer subtle comparison and contrast. The most persistent modes of "ekphrasis" are narrative by a character form, or the description of myth depicted on a work of art used in the context of the "outer" myth. The phenomenon has its origins in Homeric epic (the shield of Achilles) but was refined in the Hellenistic period by Callimachus and Theocritus, and taken up by the neoterics (Catullus 64). Its methods were absorbed back into long epic and form a dominant characteristic of Ovid's interweaving of myths in the "Metamorphoses". This book was originally published in 1931, and presents a chronological account of "epyllion" in English.

1780Best.-Nr. 154258Parma: Dalla Stamperia Reale 1780. Due volumi di cm. 25 pp. 8 xxiv 403 1 160 di annotazioni; 6 245 3 124 di annotazioni. Legatura novecentesca cartonato rigido muto. Esemplare genuino e ben conservato. Testatine e fregi tipografici in rame ornati e arabescati testo greco e traduzione latina nella pagina a fronte. Una prefazione generale alle pp. I-XXII del primo vol. Alle annotazioni alle "Bucoliche" seguono altri due saggi di versione dell'Egloga decima una in greco ed in versi dorici di Giuseppe Scaligero ed una egualmente in versi dorici di Daniel Heinsius. Alcuni dei componimenti di Simmia alle pp. 110-119 del secondo vol. si presentano ordinati in singolari disposizioni grafiche imitanti l'oggetto del componimento stesso sicché liriche concernenti le ali un uovo una scure un flauto di Pan siringa un'ara sono disposti entro figure presentanti la forma delle cose suddette. Edizione bilingue bodoniana degli "Idilli" di Teocrito Mosco Bione Simmia e delle "Bucoliche" virgiliane notevolissima anche per l'estensione e la dottrina delle annotazioni dovute al Pagnini nel volume velato sotto il suo nome in Arcadia. Il Pagnini frate carmelitano e pastore arcade fu poeta e traduttore anche tra l'altro di Terenzio di Anacreonte del "Manuale" di Epitteto e delle "Quattro Stagioni" di Pope. Fu tra gli autori del libretto delle gluckiane Le Feste d'Apollo rappresentate a Parma nel 1769. Esemplare in cui non appare l'appendice di 144 pp. alla fine del secondo volume contenenti le "Poesie Buccoliche sic di Eritisco Pilenejo" e che spesso appariva in forma separata. Cfr. Brooks 170.

1760Best.-Nr. 4496Oxford: n. pr. 1760. 4to pp. 8 numbered 1 91-94 94 93 42. Stitched as issued sometime folded horizontally. Toned in places final page browned some spots and light soiling edges a little creased. ‘Thick’ in a small contemporary hand to top corner of first page. An unrecorded specimen for an unspecified edition of Theocritus but probably Warton’s highly regarded version issued in 1770 by the Clarendon Press. The cover title reads simply ‘Specimens of Theocritus’ but no other quarto edition of the author was published in Great Britain in the 18th century. The arrangement is unusual: the first page is the section title. The second prints the introduction and first ten lines of Idyll VI while the third page begins Idyll VI again but prints the first twelve lines this time without accents. The fourth page follows on from the text on the second now with a Latin translation at the foot in a single column. The fifth page starts Idyll VI again printing the first 12 lines without accents but omitting the scholiast’s introduction adding instead a Latin translation in two columns. The sixth page is just a Latin translation of the first thirty or so lines in one column and the seventh page contains scholia and the eighth variorum notes. Warton’s edition uses a layout similar to that on the third page here though in the published book Idyll VI appears on p. 31 and other details of typography vary; the type itself is similarly very close but with considerable variation in use of ligatures between the specimen and the published text. On the other hand Warton’s edition also does not include variorium notes and the text of the scholia there is significantly different to the specimen page. The crucial element is that Warton’s edition was notable for the absence of accents in its Greek text - testing whether such a change would work may make sense of the variations in this specimen and the variorum notes may have been cut along with portions of the scholia by the time the edition was in the press. Letters between Toup and Warton indicate that printing was underway as early as May 1768 so this specimen would likely predate that. [n. pr.] unknown
