About this Item

In latin. Typis Danielis Elzevirii [Elzevier], Amstelodami [Amsterdam]: 1671, 1671. Condition: very Good. pp. [8], 328. Engraved title page. 24mo. 13 cm. half leather binding. This is a second edition after that of 1650 and the second of two impressions of 1671 (without the preliminary headpiece). Willems 1462n. Valerius Maximus was a widely read Roman historian. This work, [Nine Books of Memorable Deeds and Sayings] was written around A.D. 30 and it is a miscellany of anecdotes about a variety of subjects. It was especially important as a source for writers and orators. The Dutch family of Elzevier (Elzevir; Elsevier) were the foremost printers of their time. They produced a vast variety of well printed scholarly and popular books; many in a very small handy format. Louis Elzevier, the founder of the firm, produced his first book in Leiden in 1583. The 'golden age' of Elzevier printing was between 1620 and 1680. The Elzevier dynasty probably produced their last publication in 1770. Valerius Maximus (Ca. 20 B.C.-50 A.D.). Ex LIBRIS.
