1674In-4°,(20), 360, (60), 328pp, 3 carte di tavola ripiegate, antiporta, illustrazioni; buone condizioni, legatura in pergamena piena, tassello al dorso. Buona edizione di questa raccolta, curata da Goes, di autori latini sul tema dell'agronomia e dell'agrimensura. In parte già edita nel 1554 da André Turnèbe, fu successivamente Nicolas Rigault (Paris, 1577-1654, erudito letterario e latinista, succeduto a Casaubon nella carica di bibliotecario regio) che ne promosse una nuova edizione a Parigi nel 1614 sotto il titolo Auctores finium regundorum... Entrambe le edizioni risultarono offuscate da codesta del 1674. Il trattato comprende opere di scrittori latini quali: Siculus Flaccus, De conditionibus agrorum; Julius Frontinus, De coloniis libellus e De agrorum qualitate; Hyginus, De limitibus constituendis; Innocentius, De litteris et notis juris exponendis. Le numerose incisioni in rame e legno nel testo rappresentano schematicamente paesaggi rurali con fiumi, monti, case, castelli, boschi, fonti e i simboli usati nelle piante dei catasti agrari romani e nella determinazione dei fondi rurali. Brunet, IV/1195. Bibl. Agronomique, n. 1718: "Ouvrage estimé et recherché; assez rare". In-4 °, (20), 360, (60), 328pp, 3 folded tables, frontispiece, plates; good condition, vellum binding, label at the spine. Good edition of this collection, edited by Goes, of Latin authors on the subject of agronomy and land surveying. Partly already published in 1554 by André Turnèbe, it was subsequently Nicolas Rigault (Paris, 1577-1654, literary scholar and latinist, who succeeded Casaubon in the position of royal librarian) who promoted a new edition in Paris in 1614 under the title Auctores finium regundorum ... Both editions were blurred by this 1674. The treatise includes works by Latin writers such as: Siculus Flaccus, De conditionibus agrorum; Julius Frontinus, De coloniis libellus and De agrorum qualitate; Hyginus, De limitibus constituendis; Innocentius, De litteris et notis juris exponendis. The numerous engravings in the text schematically represent rural landscapes with rivers, mountains, houses, castles, woods, sources and symbols used in the plants of the Roman land registers and in the determination of rural funds. Brunet, IV / 1195. Bibl. Agronomique, n. 1718: "Ouvrage estimé et recherché; assiz rare".
