Louis Elzevier, Amsterdam: 1649., 1649 pp. 624, (24). Engraved title. 24mo. [116 x 60 mm.] Contemporary full leather binding with elaborately gilt spine. Manuscript Ex Libris of Ludovici Brisout de Barneville, Counselor to the Royal Court, 1836. This is supplementary work to the Elzevier 1634-1640 edition of Tacitus. Dibdin II:452; Willems 1094. Tacitus was one of the greatest of Roman historians. He was a friend of Pliny the Younger a nd married the daughter of Cnaeus Julius Agricola. In A.D. 97 he was appointed substitute consul under Nerva, and later he was proconsul of Asia. The first of his works was the Dialogus [dialogue], a discussion of oratory in the style of Cicero, demonstrating to some degree why Tacitus was celebrated as an eloquent speaker; this work was long disputed, but his authorship is now generally accepted. Tacitus then wrote a biography of Agricola, expressing his admiration for his father-in-law as a good and able man. His small treatise De origine et situ Germanorum…

Ex officina Elzeviriana [Elzevier], Lugduni Batavorum [Leiden]: 1634., 1634 pp. [16], 310, [34] + Engraved title page by Duysent. Foxed. Latin text. 24mo. 14 cm. Lovely 18th century full leather binding, joints cracked. Copinger 4054; Willems 412n. Edited by Marcus Zuerius Boxhorn (1612-1653), to whom the dedication is addressed. The Elzeviers published four distinct editions under this date. This issue is the second reimpression. Early manuscript ownerships. Scarce. 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. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SMALL BOX 6 Language: eng. Full Leather. Hardcover. Very Good.
