Leather. Condizione: Good. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. [216] pp. *8, a-o6, p4, q-r6. Small folio, 12" x 9". Publisher statement from colophon. Wide-margin copy. Woodcuts by Konrad Schnitt (CS) (1495-1541) except for the cuts on *3v, *4r and a4r which are probably by Hans Rudolf Deutsch (1525-1571). 106 illustrations including… 85 full page and 16 half page in the text, and 52 initials in wood or metal cut, as well as Froben's woodcut printer's stamp on the title and the final leaf verso. The first complete and first illustrated edition. In later blindstamped calf, spine redone with older spine cover laid down. Interior strong but crude hinge reinforcements, later end papers, some humidity marks, especially at the beginning, very occasional small mark or foxing, title page has been reinforced including a tear across the top margin which was repaired, otherwise clean and sturdy. Two old bookseller descriptions pasted on the inside front cover, bookplates of Sir John Hynde Cotton (4th baronet, 1717-1795) of Madingley Hall (at title verso) and one for James Elwin Millard (1823-1894) , Chorister of Magdelen College to front pastedown, another ownership signature on first free end paper. This beautifully illustrated book is the first complete printed edition of an important ancient Roman manuscript, the Notitia Dignitatum, which was one of the few surviving manuscripts on Roman civil and military government, covering offices from the level of the imperial court all the way down to the provincial level. It is a unique and surprisingly accurate source on both the Western and Eastern Roman empires, indispensable for understanding civil and military organization in the early 400s. [see Bowersock Late Antiquity]. Interestingly, the Notitia seems to have survived in only one manuscript copy, written in a Caroline minuscule script, probably from around the 900s, which was subsequently lost. It was first published in a small abridgement without illustrations in 1529-30. This large Froben 1552 edition is the first complete edition. It is lavishly produced, containing numerous illustrations of insignia and uniforms, illustrations of ancient scrolls and codices, buildings with architectural details, schematic maps, allegorical portraits of provinces, geographic information, a wealth of visual information including such esoterica as shield patterns of Roman military units. The prefatory "Illyrici." which includes a city view of 16th century Istanbul and Rome was written by Beatus Rhenanus. The anonymous "De rebus bellicis" has illustrations of military machinery and weapons and includes perhaps the first idea of propelling a ship without oars or sails and the invention of the paddle-wheel, which inspired Leonardo da Vinci. There is also an illustration of a conversation between Emperor Hadrian and the philosopher Epictetus. Provides some of the only data on the administrative and military history of the late Empire, an essential and beautiful book. OCLC 51681336. ; Engravings; Folio 13" - 23" tall; 216 pages. Illustrated by Schnitt, Konrad (illustratore).
