Sobre este artículo
Venetiis, Aldus Manutius Paulli, 1567. Small 8vo, 146 x 93 mms., foliated, [8], 189, [19] leaves, with Aldine device on title-page and verso of last leaf, with colophon on recto, with two small ink annotations on title-page, 18th century speckled calf, spine ornately gilt in compartments, morocco label; very slight worming to margin of last few leaves, one leaf torn at corner with loss of paper but not text, free end-papers removed, worming to top and bottom compartments (out of six), resulting in a fretwork effect, also very slight worming to boards. These works on Cataline's or the conspiracy of Cataline and the Jugurthine War are among the earliest histories from the Roman historians to survive. Many pithy comments on humanity emerged from his histories, e. g. "Sed multi mortales dediti ventri atque somno, indocti incultique vitam sicuti peregrinantes transiere," translated by Wikipedia as "Yet many human beings, resigned to sensuality and indolence, un-instructed and unimproved, have passed through life like travellers in a strange country."
