This volume brings together what are probably the two most atypical Greek comedies by Aristophanes. *The Birds* is one play where for once Aristophanes does not seem to be attacking some specific abuse in Athens, while "The Frogs" is actually the first "serious" attempt at dramatic criticism. This is not to suggest that *The Birds* (*Ornithes*) is nothing more than escapist entertainment. Certainly there are those who see it as a political satire about the imperialistic dreams that resulted in the disastrous invasion of Sicily (which happened the year before his play was produced in 414 B.C.). Then again, this could just be Aristophanes bemoaning the decline of Athens. -- Lawrance Bernabo.

Three raised bands on the spine, with gilt detailing and titles on spine. 'Aeschylus was the first of the three ancient Greek tragedians whose plays can still be read or performed, the others being Sophocles and Euripides. He is often described as the father of tragedy: our knowledge of the genre begins with his work and our understanding of earlier tragedies is largely based on inferences from his surviving plays. Only seven of his estimated seventy to ninety plays have survived into modern times. Fragments of some other plays have survived in quotes and more continue to be discovered on Egyptian papyrus, often giving us surprising insights into his work.' 386 pp. 6.25 x 8.6 inches.

SymonTitle pages vary slightly: v. 2-3 have "Publish'd monthly" for "To be publish'd monthly"; v. 4 has neitherIssued in monthly parts, with separate title page and accompanying leaf; parts 1-4 are dated 1725, parts 5-9 1726 (information from LC record). These leaves, unsigned and not included in pagination, were evidently meant to be removed before binding, resulting in the 6-leaf gatherings. The Law Library copy, in consequence of a binder's error, includes two such pairs of leaves in v. 4, gatherings U and BB. The sequence of leaves in gathering U is as follows: U1 (p. 293-294); unsigned leaf with caption title "Acta regia. Number XXII." (or "Number XXIII." in gatherin BB) followed by advertisements on recto and verso; U3 (p. 297-298), U2 (p. 295-296), U5 (p. 301-302), U4 (p. 299-300); part t.p., designated "Number XXII. for June. Continuing the reign of King James I." (or "Number XXIII. for July. Concluding the reign of King James I. With an appendix.") and with price "1 s." following imprint, and on verso, the publisher's precis of the part; U6 (p. 303-304). The extra leaves, a bifolium, would thus have formed a wrapper for the whole number. The order of leaves in gathering BB is similarly disarranged. These extra leaves are disregarded in the signature statement given hereThe abridgment of tome 1 in vol. 1 is by Jean Le Clerc; Rapin-Thoyras's abridgment of tome 1 is in the appendix to vol. 4, p. 322-542.Includes full-page portrait engravings of all the monarchs of England, each with coat of arms; signed "M.
