Back gilt. Boards with blind double fillet borders and gilt corner pieces, & the gilt coat of arms of the city of Schiedam. Engraved frontispiece by H. van der Mey and F. Bleyswyck, it depicts a cartographer busy drawing a map; in the foreground 2 nymps, one handles instruments of the cartographer, the other inspects archaeological remains. Numerous engraved illustrations in the text. The folding map of the world is after A.P. Bertius. The first 320 pages contain the text and commentary. The rest of the book is filled with the annotations of earlier important scholars) (Condition: Vellum age tanned. All 4 decorative silk fastening ribbons gone. Tiny bookseller's label on the front pastedown.) (Note: Pomponius Mela, a geographer from the South of Spain, wrote in 43/44 AD. under Claudius the first surviving work on geography in Latin. Pomponius is foremost a writer: distances, directions and other useful information for sailors or travellers is lacking. His work was meant for a educated and curious Roman public. It was known in the Middle Ages, and in the following centuries he was read at school. The Dutch scholar Jacobus Gronovius, 1645-1716, lived in the shadow of his famous father Johannes Fredericus Gronovius, professor Greek of the Unverstiy of Leiden till his death in 1671. His son Jacobus was appointed professor of History and Greek in 1679. He is best known for the 13 volume set 'Thesaurus Antiquitatum Graecarum' which he edited (1697-1702). This industrious scholar produced editions of Tacitus, Gellius, Herodotus, Polybius, Livius, Ammianus, Harpocration and Stephanus Byzantinus, and the 'editio princeps' of Manetho. Gronovius' first edition of Mela Pomponius is of 1685. He published a revised edition with commentary in 1696. Abraham Gronovius, 1695-1775, the son of Jacobus Gronovius produced in 1722 a new 'Variorum' edition of Mela Pomponius, based on the edition of his father. In 1748 Abraham Gronovius published a second and augmented edition of this work. About this second edition Abraham tells us in the preface, that the Luchtman brothers asked him to produce a new 'Variorum' edition, and that he based his edition again of that of his father. 'In ipso Pomponii Melae contextu constituendo Paternam editionem secutus sum, nisi venustiores ac nitidiores codicum MS. lectiones me alio vocarent'. (Lectori p. *3 verso/*4 recto of this 1782 edition) He consulted 11 manuscripts, including one of his one. He also added notes from earlier important editions. Jacobus Perizonius and Carolus Andreas Duker also gladly send him their own unpublished annotations. (Idem, p. *5 recto) This Mela Pomponius edition of 1782, called the third edition, is a reissue of the second edition of 1748. The preface of 1748 is repeated in this 1782 edition. Abraham Gronovius was librarian at Leyden University, from 1741 until his death. He produced editions of the 'Historiae Philippicae' of Justinus, and two editions of Aelianus. He showed interest in geographical matters. He published at Leyden in 1739 his 'Varia Geographica', and in 1752 a school edition of Mela which offers a Latin text only) (Provenance: The manuscript prize is awarded to young 'Gerhardo Gelinio Brons', on the occasion of his promotion from the 3rd to the 2nd grade for his diligence. The date is September 4, 1783, and signed by the 'curatores' of the 'Schola Latina' at Schiedam, C.J. Bosschaert, W. Jager, Jacobus van Eijk, and the Rector Johannes van Laar. Ger(h)ardus Gelenius Brons, age 17, enrolled as a student at the University of Leiden in 1785. He died in Schiedam in 1847. On the front flyleaf a small green label 'Wm Strong, bookseller, (3) Clare Street, Bristol'. William Strong died in 1846)(Collation: pi1, *8, 2*2; A-4B8 (leaf 4B8 verso, last page, blank.

Gilt coat of arms of Utrecht within gilt borders on both boards. 6 thongs laced through the joints. The frontispiece, designed by H. van der My and etched by F. Bleyswyck, depicts a cartographer drawing a map of the world, in the foreground 2 women, one is a cartographer inspecting a map with rule and compass, the other is an archaeologist busy inspecting ancient treasures. Title printed in red and black. The folding map of the earth according to Mela at the beginning of the text is by 'P. Bertius, christianissimi regis geographus'. Engraved text illustrations of coins. 1 full page illustration of 2 sculptured scenes from reliefs 'in hortis Mattheis' (p. 117) The first 304 pages contain the text and commentary. The rest of the book is filled with the annotations of earlier important scholars, especially Isaac Vossius. His observationes fill the pages 316-606. At the end we find Julius Honorius' 'Excerpta quae ad Cosmographiam pertinent' (p. 685-702), the 'Cosmographia antehac temere Aetico adscripta' (p. 703-733), and the 'Ravennatis Anonymi Geographiae libri quinque' (737-811)) (Condition: Binding slightly soiled. Prize gone. All four ties gone. Name on the front flyleaf. Prize removed) (Note: Pomponius Mela, a geographer from the South of Spain, wrote in 43/44 under Claudius the first surviving work on geography in Latin.

He based this new 'Variorum' edition of the geographer Mela Pomponius on an edition which was previously published in 1696 by his father Jacobus Gronovius, 1645-1716, who was professor Greek of the Unverstiy of Leiden) (Provenance: On the front flyleaf in ink: 'Ex praemiis P.G. v. Poolsum 1731'. We found a Petrus Georgius van Poolsum, born in Utrecht in 1718, who became minister of the protestant church of Doorn in 1741. He died in 1772. Does the inscription mean that young Van Poolsum, age 13, received this prize in 1731? This seems possible, for he has the right age and was from Utrecht. Spoelder signals 3 copies of prizes with this type of coat of arms; they were awarded between 1689 and 1711) (Collation: pi1, *-5*8; A-3G8 (leaf 3G8 verso blank) (Photographs on request)

4to. 3 parts in 1: (VIII),158 (recte 160),(24),47,(1 blank); 152 p. Limp vellum 25 cm (Ref: GLN-2627; Hoffmann 1,592, Schweiger 2,690; Renouard p. 145 & 410; Ebert 6199; Graesse 2,401; Brunet 2,729) (Details: Printer's Olive tree device of the Stephanus family on the title, motto: 'Noli altum sapere', short for 'Noli altum sapere, sed time', in Greek 'mê hupsêlophronei, alla phobou', or in English 'Donot be high-minded, but fear'. (Epistola Beati Pauli ad Romanos 11,20) (Condition: Vellum very worn: it is soiled and wrinkled, and shows 4 small holes in the upper board. Small piece of the vellum on the right upper corner of the upper board gone. Left upper corner of lower board also gone. Back damaged at the head & the tail of the spine. Old ownership entries on the title. Some faint and small ink curls on the title. Title soiled and thumbed. Corners of first 5 gatherings dog-eared. Paper slightly foxed. Some faint waterstains) (Note: For this edition of 1577 the publisher, the French humanist scholar Henricus Stephanus (1528/31-1598), brought together 3 geographical works, of which 2 had been published recently. Part 1 contains Dionysius' 'Periêgêsis' ('orbis descriptio'). Stephanus added to the Greek text his own literal translation into Latin. The text is further accompanied by 2 colums of Greek scholia. At the end of this first part, p. 143/58 are Stephanus' notes to the 'orbis descriptio', and to the scholia and the notes of the Byzantine commentator Eusthatius. Part 2 contains a Latin translation of Mela's 'orbis descriptio', now with notes by Petrus Johannes Olivarius. Part 3 contains Gaius Julius Solinus' 'Collectanea rerum memorabilium' in the edition of Martinus Antonius Delrio, and Iosias Simler's edition of Aethicus of Istria's 'Cosmographia', together with his notes. Even today the author and date of the 'Situs orbis descriptio' or 'De situ orbis', also known as 'Orbis descriptio', a didactic poem in Greek of 1187 hexameters, which served as a poetic guide of the known world in antiquity (periêgêsis tês oikoumenês), seems a riddle. (See the fuzzy information about Dionysius Alexandrinus in Wikipedia, the English article is the worst), This riddle was solved already in 1884. 'Much ink was spilt over the question of his (Dionysius') age and country, until G. Leue (Philologus 42 (1884), p. 175 ff) had the perspicacity to notice that the poem is signed and dated; lines 113-134 (Müller) and 522-532 are acrostics, informing us respectively that the work is 'Dionusiou tôn entos pharou', by 'Dionysios, one of those inside Pharos', i.e. in Alexandria, and 'epi Hadrianou', 'of the time of Hadrian'. (H.J. Rose, 'A handbook of Greek literature', London 1965) The poem opens with an introduction (1-26), then the Ocean is treated (27-169), followed by Africa (170-269), Europe (270-446), the islands (447-619), and Asia (620-1165). The pleasant and clear Callimachean versification and its comprehensibility made it an ideal Byzantine schoolbook. The work was much read in antiquity, the Middle Ages, and well into the 19th century. It was loosely translated into Latin in the 4th century by Avienus and in the 5th century by the grammarian Priscianus, and was commented thoroughly by the Byzantine scholar Eustathius. The second part of this collection contains the commentary of the Spanish humanist Petrus Johannes Olivarius (Olivarez) of Valenzia, regarding Mela's ancient sources, style and methods. His Mela edition, together with his commentary was first published in Paris in 1536. The third part opens with Solinus' 'Collectanea rerum memorabilium' in the edition of the Spanish scholar Martinus Antonius Delrio, or Martín Antonio del Rio (1551-1608), Antwerp 1572. It is a geographical summary of parts of the world, their origins, history and customs. Its sources are Pliny's 'Historiae Naturales' and Pomponius Mela. At the end of this last part we find 'Aethici Cosmographia', probably 8th century. This title was coined by its editor, the Swiss theologian, historian and classical scholar Josias Simler (1530-1576), in his edition of the 'Cosmographia', Basel 1575. It succinctly describes the Roman world, and is divided in 2 parts, the first part contains names of seas, rivers, islands, mountains, cities, peoples etc., the second part contains a description of the 3 parts of the world, Asia, Europe and Africa. The sources of the further unknown Aethicus Ister are Pliny, Mela Pomponius, the Bible and Isidorus of Sevilla) (Provenance: At the upper margin of the title: 'Ex libris Gabr. Bergonhon, Can. B. Moz'. Erased have been the name of 2 previous owners. The Benedictine editor Dionysus Sammarthanus of the second volume of 'Gallia Christiana: in provincias ecclesiasticas distributa', Paris 1720, col. 761, thanks the 'vir optimus Dom Gabriel Bergonhon B. Mariae Aniciensis canonicus & syndicus' for his information concerning the series of the abbotts of the 'Abbatia Sancti Evodii Aniciensis', that is, he thanks Gabriel Berghonon, canon of the church of 'Beatae Mariae Aniciensis'. This church must be the 'cathédrale Notre-Dame-de-l'Annonciation' at Puy-en-Velay, a major monument of christian romanesque art, where the famous Black Madonna Maria was venerated. 'Anicium Velavorum', or 'civitas Velavorum' is the Gallo-Roman name of Puy-en-Velay. With this in mind, the provenance reads like this: 'from the library of Gabriel Bergonhon, 'Canonicus Benedictinus', or 'Canon Bénédictin' of Moz. The end of the last letter z of Moz seems to curl. These 3 letters can only refer to the Benedictine Abbey of Mozac, one of the oldest and most important abbeys in the 'Basse-Auvergne'. Bergonhon is a 'famille de robe du Puy') (Collation: 4, a-v4; -24 (index); 4, A-2B4 (leaf F4 verso blank) (Error in pagination: p. 136-160 numbered 134-158)) (Photographs on request)

Frontispice gravé, une carte dépliante et nombreuses figures in-texte. Mela est le plus ancien géographe romain. Hormis le fait qu'il était originaire de la province de Bétique, dans la baie d'Algésiras, et qu'il écrivait aux alentours de 43, on ne sait rien de lui. En dehors des chapitres géographiques de l'Histoire naturelle de Pline l'Ancien (où Mela est cité comme une référence importante), le De situ orbis (ou De chorographia) est le seul traité sur le sujet en latin classique. La carte figure le monde selon Mela. Accident au ba du dos.
