About this Item
Coloniae: Ex Officina Metternichiana Sub Signo Gryphi, 1747. "Editio Nova Catholica." 12mo (14cm.); full contemporary paneled pig, unadorned spine in four compartments, all edges stained red; 213pp. Binding rather dust-soiled, moderate wear to margins, small ownership signature to title page snipped out slightly touching text on verso, else a Very Good, internally clean and sound copy. Uncommon edition of the tenth book of Epigrams by man of letters John Owen (ca. 1560-1622), whose "perfect mastery of the Latin language brought him the name 'the British Martial'" (Encyclopedia Britannica). Owen's epigrams were frequently guilty of anti-Catholic sentiment, evidently purged for this edition. Seller Inventory # 30803
