Leather. Condition: Very Good. Ex-Library. Two volumes, octavo (23 cm); [2], 405, [2], 478. Text in Greek and Latin, the Greek in fine characters. Bound in contemporary red crushed morocco, gilt borders, with library blindstamp on lower boards. Rebacked in contemporary style with red leather, gilt, probably in the early 20th century. Binding scuffed along extremities, and on lower board of volume 1. Libary bookplates, and Dewey classification code on spine. Discrete library stamp on page 95 of both volumes. Very minor occasional spots of foxing, but presents as generally quite clean, with good stock and pleasing letterpress bite. Demosthenes (384-322 BCE) was the greatest of the Athenian orators, and was seen as a defender of democracy against the tyranny of Philip II of Macedon. The oration "On the False Embassy," printed here in the Cambridge University Press edition of 1769, is a public debate (against Philip's defender, Aeschines) over the sluggishness of Athenian representatives to pursue a favorable deal with the Macedonian, allowing Philip to strengthen his position in the meantime. The Greek text, edited by John Taylor, is very clear and pleasing on the page. The Latin translation by Hieronymous Wolf is conveyed in tiny type in the lower margin of the Greek. The text also includes the 'Hypotheses' of Libanius.

Add to basketLacking initial blanks, [48], 523, [1], 326pp. Two volumes in one. Gauffered edges, Some foxing throughout, but otherwise in good condition. This important Renaissance edition of the speeches and letters of Demosthenes and Aeschines, edited by the humanist Hieronymus Wolf, represents the vigorous revival of classical rhetoric in sixteenth-century Europe. Wolf's scholarship was pioneering in its systematic collection and Latin translation of the Greek orators, and this Basel imprint by the renowned printer Johann Oporinus (best known as the publish er of Vesalius's De fabrica) was instrumental in disseminating such texts across Europe. Binding The present copy is preserved in a distinguished French Renaissance binding, executed c.1550-1570. The brown calf boards are gilt-tooled with an intricate panel of interlacing strapwork (reliure à l'entrelacs), framed by multiple gilt fillets and enlivened with delicate arabesque corn er tools. The edges are gilt and gauffered with repeating star, rosette, and wave motifs. This complex interlace style is one of the hallmarks of mid-sixteenth century Parisian bindings, and is attributed to the celebrated Ève family of binders, particularly Geoffroy and Clovis Ève, who served Henri II and Catherine de' Medici. Bindings à l'entrelacs are among the most admired products of t he French Renaissance, their interwoven geometry reflecting both ornamental refinement and intellectual prestige. Although unsigned, the pre sent binding is closely related to documented examples from the Ève workshop, and demonstrates the transition from early interlace to the later, more elaborate fanfare style of Le Gascon. An attractive survival, it illustrates the Renaissance practice of ennobling humanist texts with bindings of exceptional artistry.
