Sobre este artículo
Venice [Venetiis]: in Aedibus aldi et Andreaz Asulani Soceri [Aldus, Aldine] Aldus, 1528. Vellum. 8vo. 157mm x 97mm. Bound in later full vellum with title and date stamped in black on the spine. Page edges stained red. Title page is a tasteful 19th century facsimile. Collated against the printer's register and Kallendorf and Wells's "Aldine Press Books: A Descriptive Catalogue": accordingly believed complete but for 2 leaves-leaf: X8, from the preliminaries; and R4, the last leaf in the book: both leaves according to Kallendorf and Wells are blank. Binding tight, faint early marginalia, some staining to first and last several pages, overall very good condition. "Macrobius was a Roman scholar who wrote a lengthy commentary on Cicero's Somnium Scipionis in c. 400 AD. Macrobius's commentary included an exploration of the nature of dreams based on the Greek dream-theory of Artemidorus from the second century AD ... Macrobius's commentary became the foundation of much early medieval dream-theory, although medieval writers were often more concerned with decoding dreams rather than classifying them." -British Library.
