Synopsis
An Introduction To The Knowledge Of Rare And Valuable Editions Of The Greek And Latin Classics: Together With An Account Of Polyglot Bibles, Polyglot Psalters, Hebrew Bibles, Greek Bibles And Greek Testaments by Thomas Frognall Dibdin presents a comprehensive bibliographical survey of editions of major Greek and Latin authors. It traces printers, editors, manuscript sources, and the textual histories behind each edition, emphasizing textual criticism, scholarly apparatus (scholia, annotations, and indices), and the rarity and physical description of copies (folio, 4to, large paper, vellum). The work is organized around core authors such as Theocritus, Theophrastus, Thucydides, Valerius Flaccus, Valerius Maximus, Virgil, Xenophon, and related texts, and includes discussions of adjuncts like supplements, corrigenda, and Notitia literaria. It underscores a bibliophilic culture spanning incunabula to modern critical editions, highlighting libraries, provenance, and the evolving standards that shape classical scholarship.
