Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Weigel: Apud Ioann. August. Gottlob Weigel, 1811-1821. Three stout octavo volumes, uniformly bound in recent 3/4 red leather over marbled boards with five raised spine bands and titling and volume numbers in gilt to spine. A handsome set of this edition of Pindar's works, edited by A…ugust Bockh (1785-1867). Prior to being appointed by the Berlin Academy of Sciences as the first editor of the Corpus Inscriptionum Graecarum, Bockh published this groundbreaking edition of the extant works of the Greek poet Pindar (c.522-c.443 BCE). The works were published in two volumes, the second being divided into two parts. The first volume, published in 1811, contains the only complete surviving works of Pindar, the victory odes (Epinikia). The first part of the second volume, published in 1819, contains the ancient Greek scholia. This final part, published in 1821, contains the editor's own Latin translations of Pindar's poems, with a Latin preface and extensive critical commentary. Pindarian fragments in Greek are also included, accompanied by further Latin translations and notes (from Worldcat). Folding table repaired along folds, library stamp to title page of each volume; light foxing and spotting to title pages; faint dampstain to outer margin of first third or so pages of Vol II (1), though overall and clean and bright internally, and a handsome set overall of a scarce work. OCLC locates 15 or so holdings. This set is heavy and will incur additional shipping charges for overseas orders.
