(26), 516; (4), da 517 a 1035, (33). Segnatura: *(3), 2*(3), 3*(4), 4*(2), A-3S(4), 3T(4); [p]1, 3T(4), 3V-6S(4), 6T(4). Antiporta del 1° volume inciso da F. van Bleyswyck con ritratto di Cesare entro medaglione posto in una struttura architettonica e contornato da figurazioni allegorico-mitologiche in forma femminile, 3 carte geografiche dei territori in cui si svolsero le imprese militari di Cesare nel corso della campagna di Gallia, della Guerra Civile con gli accampamenti di Cesare; 11 tavole fuori testo di cui 5 più volte ripiegate. Due frontespizi stampati in rosso e nero con vignette xilografiche raffiguranti Minerva in armi. Capilettera elegantemente incisi su fondo nero. Bella legatura coeva di manifattura olandese in piena pergamena rigida dorata, piatti inquadrati da una doppia cornice con roulettes fogliacee dorate che incorniciano il grande stemma della città da Amsterdam al centro di entrambi i piatti. Tracce di laccetti in seta verde. Autore e titolo manoscritti sul dorso riccamente ornato da fregi dorati. Minima fenditura ad alla cerniera anteriore ma esemplare in ottimo stato di conservazione. Prima edizione di questa che è una delle migliori edizioni della collezione "cum autori notis variorum". Lo stemma della città di Amsterdam ci indica un libro donato da un laureato della città di illustre famiglia. Questa edizione delle opere di Cesare include i preziosi commenti di Dionysius Vossius, John Davis e Samuel Clarke. L'impressione e' doppiamente notevole, sia per ricchezza e bellezza del corpus iconografico e tipografico sia per il rigore filologico dei criteri editoriali. Nell'edizione e' presente anche, alle pp. 458-516 del primo vol., il proseguimento del "De Bello Gallico" steso da Aulo Irzio, il luogotenente di Cesare in Gallia. Le tavole raffigurano: carte geografiche (Gallia, Impero Romano e Spagna), accampamenti militari, il ponte costruito da Cesare per attraversare il Reno, Alesia, l' oppidum di 'Uxelludonum, etc. Il testo fu il risultato dell' impegnato lavoro dello studioso classico olandese Franciscus Oudendorp (1696-1761), l'ultimo dei grandi latinisti del suo tempo, e immediatamente eclissò tutte le edizioni precedenti divenento la fondamentale edizione del "De Bello Gallico" con cui confrontarsi per ogni edizione successiva ed anche correggere le precedenti.

Hardcover. Condition: Very good. Second edition. Sammelband of two works (jointly issued), the latter in two parts, quarto. [12], 174, [1, errata], [1, blank]; [12], 732 (pp. 353-360 repeated), xvii addenda, [19, index], x addenda, [28, index], [1 emendanda], [1 blank]pp. All four addenda and indices to the De theologia gentili bound following the second part. Each work with woodcut printer's device at title; occasional woodcut lettrines; printed marginalia. De idololatria with Hebrew text and Latin translation in parallel columns, interspersed with Latin notes. Contemporary vellum (lightly soiled), manuscript title at spine, intermittant light dampstain (largely confined to first work), else crisp, clean, and amply margined. Collation: I. [asterisk]4 2[asterisk]2, A-Y4 (= 94 leaves); II. [asterisk]4 2[asterisk]2, A-2P4, 2Q-4Y4 4Z2, [asterisk]-4[asterisk]4 5[asterisk]2, [cross]-5[cross]4 (= 414 leaves, 2Y-2Y4 repeated). Re-issue of the first edition (1641) of the first two books (of four) of G. J. Vossius' De theologia gentili, with new preliminaries, including an Elegy written by Caspar Barlaeus on the occasion of the death of Gerhard's son, Dionysius, dated IV Kal. Novembris MDCXXXIII [1633], and a preface by another of Vossius' sons, Isaac; along with an edition of the Hebrew text of Maimonides' treatment of the laws of idolotry in the first book of the Mishneh Torah, with accompanying Latin translation, by Dionysius Vossius. "The work has a two-fold aim. In the first place it is a Theologia gentilis. Of this the subtitle says that the work treats. the origin and history of heathen mythologies and cult forms. But at the same time the book is a Physiologia christiana, a study 'de naturae mirandis quibus homo adducitur ad Deum', an account, as complete as possible, of the rich diversity of all creation that in the inention of the creator must serve to reveal to man the greatness of God. It is simultaneously an ambitiously arranged textbook of mythology, a summary of what was written about nature in all its manifestations up until Vossius' time, and finally also a first specimen of what would be done profusely in the eighteenth century, a book on the natural knowledge of God" (Rademaker).

Modern calf. Condition: Good-. First edition. Quarto (19 by 14.6 cm). Collation: [asterisk]4 A-2G4. [8], 240 pp. Woodcut printer's device at title; 4 half-titles; printed marginalia. Text in Latin. Recent full polished calf to style, spine with raised bands. Text lightly toned, with damstaining/spotting (especially at outermost leaves); occasional slight chips or small tears at margins; one leaf with perforation resulting in loss of several letter on each side of page; small perforation in blank field at title. A fairly good copy. First part only of the first Latin edition of this classic work on Jewish apologetics, written by the celebrated rabbi, religious thinker, and printer-publisher, Menasseh ben Israel (1604-1657). The work was first published in Spanish at Amsterdam in four parts between 1632 and 1651. By providing a harmonization of all the apparent contradictions within the Hebrew Scriptures, he hoped to encourage converso Jews of Iberian descent who had lost touch with their religious heritage to make the return to rabbinic Judaism. The present volume deals with the Pentateuch (Five Books of Moses); the second volume treats the Prophetic books and the Hagiographa (Writings). The work was first published a year earlier in a Spanish language edition. The work attempts resolution to no less than 180 seeming discrepancies in the Pentateuch. The breadth of Menasseh's encyclopedic knowledge is vast, the Conciliador contains citations from 221 Jewish and 54 non-Jewish authorities. "No reader could fail to be impressed by the amazing range of titles which the author proudly appended to the work" (Roth). References: Kayserling, p. 69; C.
