réf. 33877Verona: 1735 Vol 1 1736 Vol 2. 1st Edition. 1st Edition. First edition in Italian two volumes vol. 1 380 pp vol. 2 280 pp vellum 4to 12 x 8.5" 30 x 21.5cm. Easily one of the oldest books in our library still in good condition especially given its almost three centuries of age. A wonderful example of Italian printing and binding during the Enlightenment period. These 2 volumes on the Peloponnesian War between Athens and Sparta in 5th century BCE by Thucydides are considered to be some of the first true Historical studies in the modern sense and this Italian translation helped disseminate ideas about War - it's dynamics and consequences Democracy and Governance Politics and Human Nature throughout Italy and Europe just when these topics were being widely debated. Translated from the Greek by Francesco Di Soldo Strozzi Fiorentino these volumes also include a life of the author by Tomaso Porcacchi a chronological table by Tomaso Gale in the appendix and a foldout map of Sicily. Edited by Dionigi Ramanzini and dedicated to Piero Gradenigo. A wonderful piece of History this copy of the Istorico Greco shows wear consistent with its age some stains wavy vellum and general scuffing. A very good copy nonetheless with an indecipherable very old previous owner signature reading " Guiseppe di." in quill and ink. A fine addition for the Antiquarian book collector. 1735 (Vol 1), 1736 (Vol 2) unknown
