Sobre este artículo
London: Melchisedec Bradwood for John Norton, 1607. Small octavo, dark brown calf, very cracked and worn but solid in its binding; front endpaper replaced at some time; original printed paper label chipped.
Markedly scarce publication of Henri Estienne's edition of Horace's poetical works, with the addition of the Satires of Juvenal and Persius, printed by Melchisedec Bradwood for John Norton. The same printer and publisher had combined to produce an edition of the same combination of texts in 1602, which seems to have purported to be a Paris publication of 1549 (see STC 13787a.5 & 13788), the false imprint somewhat absurd since Henri Estienne's edition did not appear in print until 1575 when his brother Robert published it. The original owner of the book, Samuel (or Samuell) Watts was evidently a student given the amount of scribbling on the rear endpapers and the ink parsing notes and scansions in the first 70 pages of the Odes.
Only two copies are recorded in STC, at University Library Cambridge and the Free Library of Philadelphia; OCLC adds a copy at the Bavarian State Library.
. Provenance: Samuell Watts (with his inscription "his booke" on title-page and extensive notes and scribbling on rear endpapers including multiple signatures).Reseñas
