Early nineteenth-century red straight grained morocco, lettered in gilt, marbled endpapers, edges gauffred. Modern inscription on endpaper. Syston Park Bookplate. One of the greatest works produced by the Elzeviers. It is described by some as a work that ranks above the Pliny of the same date, the Virgil of the following year and De Imitatione Christii (without date). Willems gives it the highest praise. Ebert calls it "One of the neatest and rarest Elzevier editions, and greatly sought after." Graesse and Brunet give it considerable attention. The first edition may be recognized as having the buffalo's head above the dedication, and pages 149, 335 and 475 misnumbered as 153, 345 and 375. Brunet I: 1455; Ebert 3273; Graesse II: 7; Rahir 409; Willems 420. HBS 66984. $1,000. Seller Inventory # 66984

April 1484 in Riva del Garda; gest. 21. Oktober 1558 in Agen, heute Département Lot-et-Garonne) war ein italienischer Humanist, Dichter und Naturforscher. Die Bekanntschaft mit dem Pestarzt Nostradamus, der sich 1533-1535 in Agen aufhielt, und von dem Scaliger sich im Streit trennte, sowie eine Anklage wegen Häresie im Jahr 1538, von der ihn ihm freundlich gesinnte Richter, darunter sein Freund Arnoul Le Ferron, freisprachen, sind die einzigen überlieferten Ereignisse in diesen Jahren, neben der Publikation seiner Bücher und den Debatten, zu denen diese Anlass gaben. 1531 druckte Scaliger seine erste Rede gegen Erasmus von Rotterdam, eine Verteidigung Ciceros und der Ciceronen, eine leidenschaftliche Schmähschrift, die voller ordinärer Verbalinjurien ist, und an den Argumenten des Erasmus völlig vorbeigeht.
