‎8vo. (XXXII),595,(75 index),(2 blank) p. 19th century half vellum 17 cm (Ref: VD16 P 3521; Schweiger, 2,1139 (under Sextus Aurelius Victor); Graesse 5,350) (Details: Back ruled gilt, and with a green morocco shield. 2 woodcut initials) (Condition: On the title page the words 'per Conradum Lycosthenem' are carefully erased. This erasing has been repeated on the verso of the title, where in the heading of the short biography of Pliny Minor the words 'a Conrado Lycosthene' have been erased. This erasure signals the attempt to eradicate the memory of the editor of this title, the Alsatian protestant humanist and encyclopedist Konrad Wolffhart, latinized as Conradus Lycosthenes, 1518-1561. In 1557 he published at Basel a work, 'Prodigiorum ac ostentorum chronicon', or ' Chronicle of omens and portents', with woodcuts of freaks, human monsters of all types, curious animals, comets, earthquakes etc. Two years later this title, and at the same time the entire oeuvre of Lycosthenes, was placed on the first catholic 'Index librorum prohibitorum' by Pope Paul IV. The 'Index' of forbidden books contained publications that were banned by the Catholic Church, because they were deemed heretical, anti-clerical or immoral. Often these books were censored or even destroyed. The censoring sometimes came down to the erasing or cutting out of names, or passages, or the removal of leaves, even complete chapters by catholic librarians. This explains the erasing of his name on the title page of this Plinius. The censor also cut out the name of the famous protestant publisher Oporinus, leaving a neat rectangular hole of 7.5x1 cm. The censor overlooked however the name 'Conradus Vuolfhardus' in the heading of the 'praefatio') (Note: 'The full maturation of ancient biography did not occur before the Roman late republican and imperial periods. The purposes of Graeco-Roman biography were varied, ranging from instructive praise of a subject's virtues, to panegyric, to providing insurance against the jaws of oblivion by immortalizing the 'fama' good or ill, of notable individuals'. (The Classical Tradition, Cambr. Mass., 2010, p. 127) In the early imperial period the Greek author Plutarch composed a series of vitae, which are discursive and generally show a strong moral bias. The Romans were in the writing of biography not wholly dependent on the Greeks. 'The attitudes and customs of their own political and family life led them to put a special value on recording the achievements of their great men'. (OCD 2nd ed. p. 168) Tacitus (Agricola), Nepos (Liber De Excellentibus Ducibus Gentium), Suetonius (Vitae XII imperatorum, or Caesares) are the principle Roman biographers. In late antiquity they found a number of imitators and continuators, e.g. the 'Scriptores Historiae Augustae' or 'Sextus Aurelius Victor'. This 'Liber de viris in re militari & administranda republica illustribus', nowadays called in the edition of Pilchmayr 'Incerti Auctoris liber de Viris Illustribus Urbis Romae', is one of those imiations. It contains more than 75 biographies of famous Romans from Romulus to Pompeius and Sulla. When it was written no one knows, some say first or second century AD, others the fourth. This collection of Lives of famous Romans, including Hannibal, his brother Hasdrubal, and king Mithridates, was long time primarily ascribed to Plinius Minor, 62-ca. 113 AD. The editio princeps was printed ca. 1470 and enjoyed a great popularity among humanists and on schools. Since the edition of Aldus in 1508 the collection is often called the 'Liber de viris in re militari & administranda republica illustribus'. Schweiger records before this 1547 edition ca. 40 editions, and there must be more. It was printed in the 16th century also under the name of Suetonius and of Nepos. Hyginus and Aemilius Probus are also mentioned as the authors. The Flemish scholar Andreas Schottus attibuted the text in 1577 to Sextus Aurelius Victor. From then on till the second half of the 19th century he was thought to be the author of this collection. (Schweiger 2, 1140/41) But nowadays the author is an anonymous, because the style (genus dicendi) does not suit Sextus Aurelius Victor. It is doubtful whether the author was a christian. He belonged probably to the Optimates. Though many historical errors hurt the eye of the reader, still this collection of biographies offers much that is of great help for our understanding of Roman history of the republican period. The collection figures anonymously in the 'Bibliotheca Teubneriana' edition of that writer of 1966 edited by Pilchmayr. Especially the praefatio of Pichlmayer offers much useful information (p. X & XI)) Conradus Lycosthenes lectured grammar and dialectics in Basel from 1542. In 1545 he was appointed deacon and preacher of the local 'St. Leonhardskirche'. He married Christine Herbster, a sister of Johannes Oporinus, the printer of this book. The biographer of Lycosthenes's short biography in ADB calls his commentary in this 1547 collection his most excellent work. (ADB 19, 727/28)) (Provenance: On the front pastedown in pencil: '24 dec. 1963', written by the Flemish linguist Walter Couvreur, 1914-1996, Orientalist and professor of Indoeuropean linguistics at the University of Gent.

Front joint partly split. Bookplate and small label on the front pastedown. Front hinge cracking, but strong. First two leaves foxed. Faint name on the title) (Note: The Roman civilian administrator Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus, 61-112 A.D, published 10 books of literary letters, consisting of short essays, character sketches and sensible observations. The letters paint the high society of the young Roman empire. The ninth book contains Pliny's correspondence with the emperor Trajan. Pliny is famous for his description of the eruption of the Vesuvius on the 24th of August in 79 A.D. He was a nephew of the encyclopedist Pliny the Elder, who died, observing the eruption from afar, overcome by poisonous fumes. Pliny the Younger held under Trajanus a number of magistracies. In 111 /112 he became governor of Bithynia. From here he was in constant correspondence with the Emperor. His letters, which were conceived of as artistic productions, are more or less epistolary essays. In the late antiquity and later in the Renaissance the literary letter had a widespread influence. Not much is known about the Canon Giovanni Antonio Tedeschi, or Johannes Antonius Tedeschi, who produced this first complete Italian translation of the correspondence of Pliny Minor. He also published a translation of the letters of Symmachus (1724). He died in 1727. We found one Giovanni Antonio Tedeschi, who was dean (archiprete) of the family Borghese, in whose palace he died in 1727, and who was buried in S. Lucia della Tinta. (Claudio De Dominicis, 'Carlo De Dominicis, architetto del settecento romano', Roma 2006, p. 73) This must be our Tedeschi, for he dedicated his Symmachus translation to Marcantonio Borghese. Tedeschi was a member of the Italian literary academy/society 'Accademia degli Arcadi' or 'Accademia dell'Arcadia'. In 'Prose degli Arcadi, tomo terzo', Roma 1718, p. CV, he is described as 'Orticolo Eleo. Il Canonico Gio. Antonio Tedeschi da Pesaro'. 'Orticolo Eleo' being his 'nome arcadico', i.e. his pen name or pseudonym. So the phrase 'e tra gli Arcadi Orticolo Eleo', probably means 'and among the Arcadi his name is 'Orticolo Eleo''. Might this pen name refer to a 'olive grove'? A problem is that there is in this same period a namesake who was a sculptor/stonemason) (Provenance: On the title the name of 'Harriet Taylor'. This is Harriet Taylor Upton, 1853 - 1945, who was an American political activist and author. Taylor 'Upton is best remembered as a leading Ohio state and national figure in the struggle for women's right to vote and as the first woman to become a vice chairman of the Republican National Committee'. Harriet Taylor married in 1884 the attorney George W. Upton. She 'was a key organizer and the first president of the Suffrage Association of Warren. She was also a member of the National Woman Suffrage Association (NWSA) from 1890. In 1891, Upton hosted a conclave of women seeking equal rights with men, Ohio Women in Convention, in her home. (...) Harriet Upton was inducted into the Ohio Women's Hall of Fame in 1981, in the category of Government and Military Service. In early 2010, Upton was proposed by the Ohio Historical Society as a finalist in a statewide vote for inclusion in Statuary Hall at the United States Capitol'. She probably wrote her name before 1884. (See Harriet's lemma in Wikipedia) On the French title in pencil: 'J.W. Tellegen' On the front pastedown the bookplate of 'Thomas Conolly', depicting a round garter, with the motto: 'En Dieu Est Tout'; in the center a cubit arm, the hand is grasping an annulet. Someone wrote once in pencil beneath the plate: 'One time Speaker in the Irish House of Commons'. This is not correct. This Speaker was William Conolly, of humble descent, who was the first of his line, and in his time the wealthiest and the most powerful politician in Ireland. He died childless in 1729. Thomas Conolly, 1738-1803, was a son of his nephew William James Conolly. Thomas inherited the estate of his father William James when he was still a minor. 'Thomas Conolly was the quintessential Irish gentleman, a keen huntsman and a fine horseman, as well as a politician and landowner. Regarded as the wealthiest commoner in the kingdom: he actually spent much of his career in debt because of large debts he inherited from his father. Conolly sat in the Irish parliament for forty years where he prided himself on his often imagined independence'.

Paper yellowing) (Note: The Roman civilian administrator Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus, 61-112 A.D, published 9 books of literary letters, consisting of short essays, character sketches and sensible observations. The letters paint the high society of the young Roman empire. The tenth book contains Pliny's correspondence with the emperor Trajan. Pliny is famous for his description of the eruption of the Vesuvius on the 24th of August in 79 A.D. He was a nephew of the encyclopedist Pliny the Elder, who died, observing the eruption from afar, overcome by poisonous fumes. Pliny the Younger held under Trajanus a number of magistracies. In 111 or 112 he became governor of Bithynia. From here he was in constant correspondence with the Emperor. His letters, which were conceived of as artistic productions, are more or less epistolary essays. In the late antiquity and later in the Renaissance the literary letter had a widespread influence. The Scottish printers Robert and Andrew Foulis chose for this edition of Pliny's 247 letters the best available text at the time. It was produced by the German classical scholar Gottlieb Cortius, or Kortte, 1698-1731, who made his name producing editions of Latin authors, and whose works were provided with very extensive commentaries, in the manner of the Dutch scholar Petrus Burmannus. His very critical and elaborate Plinus Minor edition was published in Amsterdam in 1734. Cortius died before he could finish the job. Most publishing work was done by a pupil of his, the young German philologist Paul Daniel Longolius, 1704-1779. He added also emendations of his own. Longolius published 3 ancient authors in an exemplary manner, these Letters of Pliny the Younger, and also Diogenes Laertius (1739), and Gellius (1741). (ADB 19,156/7) His Plinius edition is called by Ernesti the editio optima (Ernesti/Fabricius Bibliotheca Latina, 2,416) For the Panegyricus Foulis used the edition of Pliny the Younger which was produced by the English scholar Thomas Hearne, 1678-1735, and which dates from 1703 (Oxford). It is called by Dibdin a 'very respectable edition'. Thousands of panegyrics must have been delivered in antiquity. Only a few of them survive. A panegyric is an elaborate eulogy, a formal set-piece oration in praise of an emperors or a high dignitary and was an integral part of the ceremony of politics in the Roman empire. The most influential panegyric speech was delivered in 100 A.D. by Plinius Minor before Trajan and the Senate in Rome, in which he thanks the emperor for his election to the consulship. It served as a model of rhetoricians in late antiquity. 'It went on to teach many Renaissance and Baroque ceremonial orators how to address supreme political authorities in public speeches. (The Classical Tradition, Cambr. Mass. 2010, p. 745). His most famous imitator in the Renaissance was Erasmus. By the 18th century the panegyric was treated with suspicion, for it easily slid from a showpiece of praise to mindless flattery. 'For Enlightenment critics panegyrics were not to be seen as part of a vital political culture; rather, they were a sure index of the constriction of personal liberty and the inevitable bankruptcy of language under autocracy'. (The Classical Tradition, Cambr. Mass., 2010, p. 684) In the 35 years between 1742 and 1776 the learned Foulis brothers, who were University Printers to the University of Glasgow, produced ca. 590 titles. Circa 100 of them are Greek or Latin editions. The Foulises printed textbooks for the University, but also works of learning, and general literature. From their presses have come some of the finest specimens of accurate and elegant printing that was produced in the eighteenth century. They once hung up the sheets of an Horace edition (1744) which was being printed, in the college of Glasgow, and offered a reward to those who could discover an inaccuracy. It seems that this Pliny edition was originally planned in two volumes. On the verso of the titles of volume 1 and 2 one reads: 'Epistolarum libri sex priores' and 'Epistolarum libri quatuor posteriores. Panegyricus Nervae Trajano Augusto dictus'. However, at the bottom of page 503, the first page of the Panegyricus, is printed 'Vol. III'. It was probably intended later on that the Panegyricus should comprise the third volume, 'but no copy has been seen with a separately-bound vol. III, nor one with a Vol. III title page'. (Gaskell p. 164) The Panegyricus is, instead of a title, preceded by 2 leaves which only announce the Panegyricus, and donot have an imprint. The Foulises produced in this same year also a quarto edition of the Letters of Pliny. (Gaskell 207)) (Collation: Vol. 1: pi2, A-L12; M6.
