Paris, chez Saugrain fils, 1727. 4to. (4),+ XXXIII,+ (3),+ 535 pp.+ 21 engr. plates; VIII,+ 110,+ 403,+ (3) pp.+ 23 engr. plates,+ 1 extra leaf with facsimil. With wood cut illustrations in text. Richly with contemporary marginal comments and underlinings with ink and pencil. Contemporary half calf, gilt spines with worn black labels and raised bands, marbled paper boards. Probably from the library of Carl Gustaf Warmholtz with his marginal notes. Cicognara 4724. Jacques Martin (1684-1751) var fransk benediktinermunk och tidig arkeolog, och som tillsammans med Montfaucon m.fl. �r en av de f�rsta som f�rs�ker definiera den keltiska forntiden.Detta �r med stor sannoliket Carl Gustaf Warmholtz? (1713-85) exemplar, med hans sedvanliga kommentarer p� franska upptill p� f�rs�ttsbladet. �vriga rikliga kommentarer, som n�stan genomg�ende �r p� franska med n�gra svenska undantag, �r likaledes med Warmholtz? typiska handstil. De �r �ven skrivna av en mycket bibliografiskt bel�st person, med angivande av exakta uppgifter om titlar och �rtal, och av en med detaljk�nska f�r namn och ?etymologier?, ofta med en svensk koppling. En h�nvisning till Winckelmanns ?Geschichte der Kunst? (1764) tyder p� att kommentarerna tillkommit under andra halvan av 1760-talet. Huruvida blyertsanteckningarna �r av samma hand eller senare �r sv�rt att s�ga. Martins bok finns inte omn�mnd i Warmholtz stora ?Bibliotheca historica Sueo-Gothica? Fr�nvaron kan dock f�rklaras av att galler och kelter inte ing�r i Warmholtz? f�r �vrigt gener�sa definition av vilka som r�knas som fornskandinaver, �ven om han har med en del j�mf�relser mellan galliska druider och Odens drottar (nr 1463-1464).
