Original full vellum with handwritten title to spine. Main title in red and black lettering, with title vignette. Engraved frontispiece portrait of Edward Leigh. Both volumes have separate titles. Originally published in English, in London in 1639 and 1641, Edward Leigh's magnum opus is divided into two parts: - 1) "Critica Sacra : Observationes Philologicas & Theologicas In omnes Radices Veteris Testamenti" containing observations on all the radices, or primitive Hebrew words of the Old Testament in alphabetical order. - 2) "Critica Sacra : Observationes Philologicas & Theologicas Observationes In omnes Graecas Voces Novi Testamenti" containing observations upon all the Greek words of the New Testament in alphabetical order. This lexicon with its dictionary and index of Biblical words became the classic work and basis for future studies of language by experts such as William Gouge (who wrote the commendatory epistle in the first volume) and Thomas Fuller.

Editio princeps of the original Greek text, published with an annotated Latin translation by Nicolas Rigault (Rigaltius 1577-1654), a distinguished French classical scholar, who succeeded Casabon as Royal librarian in Paris. Onosander (Onesandros), a pedantic Greek philosopher of the first century A.D., was the chief authority for the military writings of several Byzantine emperors. His work in 42 chapters, entitled 'The General' explains the broad principles of command, the formation of an army, the preparation for battle, and other aspects of warfare from an ethical standpoint. 'The earliest military treatise wherein so much stress is laid upon the commander's duties, the morale of the troops, the ethical side of warfare' (Sarton). The text became very popular during the Renaissance and was translated into Latin (1494), German (1532), French and Italian (1546), and English (1563). The English translation (from Cotta's Italian version by Peter Whitehorne - see Cockle 14) was one of the earliest books on the subject published in Elizabethan England. An attractive, crisp copy with only occasional light toning. Adams O-190; Hoffmann III,7; Jähns 90-94, 451; NUC lists 1 copy only (Amherst); Sarton I, 255.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Declamatiunculae aliquot, eaedemq[ue] Latinae, per Des.Erasmum Rot. Cum duabus orationibus Lysiae itidem versis, incerto interprete, & aliis nonnullis. Basel, Johann Froben, March (at end: 1st May) 1522. 4to. [114]f. Greek text with Latin translation on opposite pages. With ornamental woodcut borders and historiated initials after Hans Holbein; ornamental title woodcut border signed by U[rs] G[raf]. Large printer's device at end. Contemporary blind-tooled half pigskin over oak boards. Erasmus proved his linguistic skills in his Latin version of the collected speeches on set topics by the 4th century Greek rhetorician Libanius, his first attempt at translating a classical text. Working from a Greek manuscript at Louvain University, he corrected several errors and omissions, for the first printing in 1519. The remaining errors were eliminated for this 2nd edition prepared by Froben, in which a number of passages were given a more accurate form. Libanius, who taught at Antioch and Constantinople, was regarded as a model of style both in Christian Byzantium and in Renaissance Europe. He was advisor to both the pagan emperor Julian (362-3) and the Christian emperor Theodosius I (379-393). The volume additionally contains Latin versions of Isocrates' Orations (by Petrus Mosellanus), the declamations of Lucian of Samosata by Erasmus, and the orations of Lysias. The Latin translations are printed facing the Greek texts on parallel pages. The splendid woodcut title border is illustrated in Walter Lüthi, Urs Graf, Zürich 1928. A good copy with a contemporary manuscript entry on title and contemporary manuscript notes in Greek in a few blank margins; occasional light traces of waterstaining in blank margins, otherwise well preserved in its original binding.
