Folio bound in 19th century full vellum morocco spine label marbled endpapers title-page with elaboarate historiated woodcut border. In very good condition with light toning to the text. Rare and desirable in this condition. The standards and methods of Thucydides as a contemporary historian have never been bettered. He began work at the very start of the events he records and the penetration and concentration which he devoted to his account of the 'Peloponnesian War' the war between Athens and Sparta from 431 to 404 B.C. were based on the conviction that it would prove the most important event in Greek history. He saw his history as a source of profit to 'those who desire an exact knowledge of the past as a key to the future which in all probability will resemble the past.' It was in this sense. that he called it. 'a possession forever.' This is exactly what it has become" PMM 102. William Tylle hardcover books

"When Thucydides set out to compose his work the writing of warfare was already a notable tradition launched with a bang by the legendary Homer about three centuries earlier.He was followed 300 years later by Herodotus who gave an account of the Persian Wars similarly rich in iconic battles and larger than life personalities on both sides of the conflict. With Thucydides the writing of war took a new direction. In contrast to the wars of Homer and Herodotus the armed conflict that concerned Thucydides was fought primarily among Greeks. It also involved events which occurred within the author's lifetime which introduced a contemporary dimension to the genre. Thucydides focused on offering a strong and authoritative account of the war its causes and its behind the scenes negotiations. To this end he largely left out the gods and religious explanations more generally.Instead he offered a deel analysis of human factors and motivations" Finley. In this sense Thucydides did more than leave historians with an account of the war published close to its conclusion; he created a new expectation for the genre of history and the work of historians.

Provenance: 1. Ownership inscription dated 1595 of the German jurist political philosopher and seven-time rector of the University of Tübingen Christoph Besold 1577-1638. Besold was a close friend of Johannes Kepler whom he met while studying at Tübingen at which time he purchased this book. Besold championed Kepler's theories while at Tübingen and in 1626 he participated in the trial of Kepler's mother who was accused of witchcraft and ultimately acquitted. As a political philosopher Besold proposed a form of mixed constitution in which the 'rights of majesty' are divided between the prince and the assembly of estates. For his evolving views see his "De consilio politico axiomata"1622 "De statu reipublicae mixtu"revised ed. 1625 and "Principium et finis politicae"1626. For his views on Democracy in particular see his 1623 "Discursus politici" esp. Chapter III "De Democratia". 2. Small stamp of the Donaueschingen Hofbibliothek library sold 1999-2001 on verso of the title. "Second Estienne edition generally considered the best sixteenth century edition of the greatest historian of Athens. For this new edition Estienne has corrected the Greek text and scholia as well as further revised Lorenzo Valla's Latin translation which is now printed on the same page with the Greek text in parallel columns while the Greek scholia are printed at the foot of the page. Estienne has also added marginal concordances to his first edition. Among the other important additions are Estienne's 'Proparasceue' Preparation to the reading of the Greek scholia which is to this day a most valuable exposition of the special vocabulary and technical terminology used by the Greek scholiasts; his annotations on the text and scholia of the first two books Renouard as well as Carter and Muir in PMM wrongly attribute these annotations to Isaac Casaubon; the Thucydidean Chronology of David Chytraeus and the Greek Life of Thucydides by Marcellinus with a Latin translation by Casaubon." Quoted from Schreiber's "The Estiennes" "The standards and methods of Thucydides as a contemporary historian have never been bettered. Thucydides has been valued as he hoped; statesmen as well as historians men of affairs as well as scholars have read and profited by him"PMM 102 Schreiber 216-217; Renouard 152-53 4; Moeckli 124; Hoffmann III 749; Printing and The Mind of Man 102 Excudebat Henricus Stephanus, books
