Leatherbound hardcover, In all: very good Second unusual edition (1st 1648) of the critical commentary of the Satires of Juvenal and Persia by the Dutch grammarian Corneille Schrevel (1615-1664). -- Schrevel was a renowned scholar of his time, known for his work on classical literature. His edition of Satires is distinguished by the richness of its critical apparatus and its erudite comments. Schrevel has in fact collected and compared numerous manuscript sources and previous editions, thus making it possible to offer a critical text that is more reliable than previous editions. But the main interest of this edition lies in Schrevel's commentaries, which follow the variants and thus offer an in-depth analysis of the meaning and cultural references of the texts of Juvenal and Persia. The Dutch grammarian mobilizes vast erudition to illuminate the historical, mythological and literary allusions that punctuate these satires, thus allowing a better understanding of these complex works for erudite readers. This first edition begins with a frontispiece title page, unsigned and attributed to Reinier Van Persyn (1614-1668), depicting demons, strange creatures and esoteric symbols. This iconic richness is due to the fact that the two Latin poets integrate numerous references to the occult into the very fabric of their works. They thus call on mythological figures, fantastic creatures or magical practices to construct their metaphors and their satirical allegories. For example, Juvenal evokes the Thessalian witches renowned for their evil powers, while Perse spins the metaphor of the poet as a soothsayer inspired by the Muses. These supernatural elements give their Satires a mysterious and disturbing dimension, reflecting the anxieties and superstitions of imperial Rome. Thus, far from being confined to social criticism alone, the Satires of Persia and Juvenal open up to an occult and fantastic universe which makes them works of great symbolic and literary richness.

Medico, scrittore ed accademico senese Ludovico Sergardi (noto nel mondo letterario con lo pseudonimo di Quinto Settano) diresse la Fabbrica di San Pietro a Roma, tra la fine del Seicento e gli inizi del Settecento. Nato a Siena nel 1660 fu inviato a Roma per compiere gli studi giuridici ed intraprendere la carriera ecclesiastica; uomo di grande cultura e profonda intelligenza frequentò i circoli accademici della città entrando in contatto con le maggiori personalità artistiche ed intellettuali dell epoca. Membro dell Arcadia, da cui ereditò il nome di Quinto Settano, fu promotore della conoscenza della cultura senese a Roma, accumulando e commissionando una prestigiosa collezione di quadri, statue, mobili ed oggetti d arte. Satyrae, la più nota opera di Ludovico Sergardi, è l'esempio eccellente della tradizione letteraria didascalico-satirica del tempo. Uno sguardo sarcastico nei confronti delle abitudini di vita della curia e dell aristocrazia contemporanea. La prima edizione di quest'opera fu stampata nel 1696. Esemplare completo della V e VII satira, messe all'Indice con decreto 22 dicembre 1700. Falso luogo di stampa, opera stampata a Lucca, secondo il Lucchesini il Melzi ed altri, mentre il Weller la vuole stampata a Roma. Probabilmente il nome del tipografo è fittizio. Ottimo esemplare, fresco in ogni sua parte. Legatura coeva in tutta pergamena, titoli a inchiostro sul dorso, cinque nervi, pp. 2, CLXIV, 2, in 16°.

The edition of Persius is by the German scholar Eilhard Lubinus (1565 - 1621) and was published in the same year that he was appointed professor of poetry at University of Rostock. The German philologist Philipp Nicodemus Frischlin (1547 1590) published numerous editions of the classics, though the best-known ones are editions of Virgil. Arrested for libel and imprisoned in the fortress of Hohenurach, near Reutlingen, he killed himself in a fall while trying to escape from his cell. Florent Chrestien, also known as Quintus Septimius Florens Christianus (1541 - 1596), a French physician and author of texts on physiology, also published editions of the classics, particularly satires.

First edition of this paired folio of Juvenal s and Persius Satyrae in a lovely presentation binding bearing the arms of Louis XIV, the sun king. Popular joint edition of the Satires of Juvenal and Persius. The satirical technique of Juvenal and Persius was much appreciated with the 17th-century audience and this copy enjoying a long provenance within circles in France, Scotland, Spain or Portugal and Mexico. Roman satire is a peculiar literary genre; it is unconventional, purposefully experimental and aggressively extravagant. It treated a wide range of issues and gave full exposition of many of the tensions and weaknesses in the human condition. Persius Flaccus had a significant and permanent impact not only on subsequent Roman literature but also on the readers, writers and thinkers of early and recent modernity. He only lived to the age of 28, and this, his opus magnum, is relatively slight- his six satires total only 664 lines. Persius Satires were the most elusive of the tradition; they were more concerned with poetry and ethics than with politics. The Juvenalian oeuvre consists of sixteen satires on an extremely wide range of themes, the last satire of which was apparently never finished. Juvenal s compositional style creates rhetorical questions that do not lead to logical explanations but digressive discourse. Juvenal adopted a stance of moral outrage to picture a society in which he believed the established traditions had disintegrated. This large, clean copy is beautifully bound in its original gilt presentation morocco with the arms of the famous French sun king. Lovely and rarely found in such good form.

First Edition. Two parts in one volume, folio, ff.110 [of, 112 lacking bifolium G1.6]; 60 [of 62, lacking bifolium H1.6], woodcut Benedetti device to colophon; ink splash to title, occasional stains and signs of use elsewhere, upper outer corner of last two leaves repaired with no loss to text (last page laid down); eighteenth-century half vellum with drab paper sides, ink titling and small paper shelfmark label to spine; with marginal annotations and underlining to approx.270pp.in a sixteenth-century Italian hand.First edition of a quintessential piece of Italian humanism, annotated by a sixteenth-century reader particularly interested in the philology of the texts. Antonio Urceo (1446 1500) was a poet and a professor of grammar, rhetoric, poetry, and Greek at Bologna, and was engaged as a tutor by the patrician family Ordelaffi. He taught several exceptional pupils, the most illustrious being Nicolaus Copernicus; among other prominent followers was Filippo Beroaldo the younger, who prepared this edition of his teacher's collected works. 'The volume of collected work, lovingly edited soon after Urceo's death, in 1502, by his most devoted disciples (Filippo Beroaldo the younger, with the help of Jean de Pins and Bartolomeo Bianchini, and the encouragement of Antonio Galeazzo Bentivoglio, to whom the edition is dedicated) contains, besides the lectures, a small gathering of Epistolae, two books of Sylvae in verse, one Aegloga and a book of Epigrams. More than half of the volume is taken up by the lectures, which stand as the most eloquent witness to his life and his teachings' (DBI trans.). This copy was annotated by a meticulous reader, eager most of all to hunt down corrections to editors of Classics from the previous generation, embodying the contemporary spirit of dedicated minute philological enquiry as a cultural mission which transcended the mere individual texts. Barbarus, Beroaldus, Calderinus, and others are subjected to Urceo's fine-eyed analysis, which the annotator embraces and expands in the margins in a close dialogue. Expertise in Greek is also displayed in the careful and correct transcriptions of apt quotes. Adams U64; Brunet II, 121 ('Edition originale de cet ouvrage rare et recherché'); EDIT16 32581.

These witty and cruel satires deride decadence in all its forms - prostitution, marital infidelity, extravagant banquets, cannibalism, sodomy, hypocrisy, waste. The Renaissance took them as literary models and as a storehouse of quotations. â This is the first printing to combine the 15th-century prefatory matter and commentaries of papal secretary Dom. Calderini, teacher and poet Ant. Mancinelli, press corrector and book hunter Giorgio Merula and science writer and bibliophile Giorgio Valla. Their notes surround the text on three sides. â When the title woodcut first appeared in 1494/5, Juvenal held the cathedra flanked by the three commentators included in the edition. The addition here of Merula to the volume and his likeness to the title illustration forced Juvenal off the stage, just another slight to the congenitally dyspeptic author.

4to. XL, (1) ff. (several errors in foliation, but complete, lacking only final blank). Decorated initials. 19th century boards (spine repaired). First edition thus of the satires of Persius, published but a month before the death of the editor, Murmellius. The work is preceded by a short biography of Persius, taken from Petrus Crinitus. Finely printed in a small "lettre bâtarde", including some Greek type, with legenda in the margins for the comments, and the main text printed in a slightly larger type, with the lines set widely apart. Georg Kloß copy, with his bookplate on the front pastedown and the relevant catalogue clipping from his sale (described as bound with an additional work) pasted above. The Frankfurt physician Georg Franz Burkhard Kloß (1787-1854) was also a noted historian of freemasonry. His rather notorious sale was held at Sotheby's in London in 1835. This volume contains long 18th c. notations on the title-page about the rarity of this edition as well as a contemporary humanist's extensive marginalia in Latin from fol. C1v to D2r, then again on D5v and D6v (slightly trimmed at rebinding), mostly pertaining to the text, but also to the commentary. These early handwritten annotations were boldly attributed to Melanchthon by Samuel L. Sotheby in his 1835 catalogue of the Kloß library, an unsustainable notion against which the collector himself spoke out clearly (cf. G. Kloß, Ueber Melanchthons angebliche Handschriften, welche in dem Catalogue of the Library of Dr. Kloss verzeichnet sind, in: Serapeum 2 [1841], no. 24, p. 369-377). In his monumental account of Melanchthon research throughout the centuries, Wilhelm Hammer provided similarly critical reviews of Sotheby's relevant publications: "[Wimmelt] von Sach- und Druckfehlern [.] Die hier zusammengestellten 'Privatexemplare' [Melanchthons] entsprechen nicht den Tatsachen [.] Eine höchst unsinnige Veröffentlichung" ("Abounds with factual and setting errors [.] The 'private copies of Melanchthon' here assembled are not in accordance with fact [.] A deeply misguided publication", cf. Die Melanchthonforschung im Wandel der Jahrhunderte 36 [1968], pp. 96 & 110). Subsequently in the collection of Cosmo (Cosmas) Nevill, Esq. of Holt, Leicestershire, with his 19th century engraved bookplate. Nevill would have acquired the book from the Kloß sale. - Some browning and minor dampstains. Pasteboards rubbed, extremeties bumped, spine professionally restored, as is a tear in the title page.
