Sobre este artículo
Apud Elzevirios, Lugd. Batav. (Elzevier, Leiden): 1638., 1638 pp. (8), 336, (8) + Title engraved by Duysend. 24mo. [129 x 73 mm.] Lightly damp stained. Later full dark brown morocco gilt binding. This rare variant edition has the uncorrected errors in pagination, but the engraved title has the correct S.P.Q.R. Old collector's manuscript note relating to this edition is attached. Florus was a Roman historian and poet. This is his Epitome of Roman History. Florus was said to have addressed the well-known lines to Hadrian beginning, "Ego nolo Caesar esse" [I do not wish to be a Caesar], which provoked Hadrian's satirical parody, "I do not wish to be a Florus," quoted by Spartianus. This important edition was edited by the great "monarch and tyrant of literature", Claude Salmasius (1593?-1653). The Dutch family of Elzevier (Elzevir; Elsevier) were the foremost printers of their time. They produced a vast variety of well printed scholarly and popular books; many in a very small handy format. Louis Elzevier, the founder of the firm, produced his first book in Leiden in 1583. The 'golden age' of Elzevier printing was between 1620 and 1680. The Elzevier dynasty probably produced their last publication in 1770. Brunet II:1311; Dibdin II:10; Willems 467. RARE. SMALL BOX 2 Language: eng. Hardcover. Very Good.
