pp. 624, (24). Engraved title. 24mo. [116 x 60 mm.] Contemporary full leather binding with elaborately gilt spine. Manuscript Ex Libris of Ludovici Brisout de Barneville, Counselor to the Royal Court, 1836. This is supplementary work to the Elzevier 1634-1640 edition of Tacitus. Dibdin II:452; Willems 1094. Tacitus was one of the greatest of Roman historians. He was a friend of Pliny the Younger a nd married the daughter of Cnaeus Julius Agricola. In A.D. 97 he was appointed substitute consul under Nerva, and later he was proconsul of Asia. The first of his works was the Dialogus [dialogue], a discussion of oratory in the style of Cicero, demonstrating to some degree why Tacitus was celebrated as an eloquent speaker; this work was long disputed, but his authorship is now generally accepted. Tacitus then wrote a biography of Agricola, expressing his admiration for his father-in-law as a good and able man. His small treatise De origine et situ Germanorum [concerning the origin and locatio n of the Germans], commonly called the Germania or Germany, supplies (along with the earlier account of Julius Caesar) the principal written material on the Germanic tribes. It is a picture of the sim ple Germans glorified by comparison with the corruption and luxurious immorality of the Romans. This moral purpose and severe criticism of contemporary Rome, fallen from the virtuous vigor of the old republic, also underlies his two long works, commonly called in English the Histories and the Annals. The extant books of the Histories cover only the reign of Galba (A.D. 68?69) and the beginning (to A.D. 70) of the reign of Vespasian but give a thorough view of Roman life?persons, places, and events. The surviving books of the Annals tell of the reign of Tiberius, of the last years of Claudius, and of the first years of Nero. The account contains incisive character sketches, ironic passages, and eloquent moral conclusions. The declamatory writing of the Dialogus is replaced in the historical works by a polished and highly individual style, a wide range of vocabulary, and an intricate and startling syntax - Columbia Encyclopedia. **PRICE JUST REDUCED!

The Elzevier dynasty probably produced their last publication in 1770. Gaius Plinius Caecilius Secundus, born Gaius Caecilius or Gaius Caecilius Cilo (61 c. 113), better known as Pliny the Younger, was a lawyer, author, and magistrate of Ancient Rome. Pliny's uncle, Pliny the Elder, helped raise and educate him. Pliny the Younger wrote hundreds of letters, of which 247 survive and are of great historical value. Some are addressed to reigning emperors or to notables such as the historian Tacitus. Pliny served as an imperial magistrate under Trajan and his letters to Trajan provide one of the few surviving records of the relationship between the imperial office and provincial governors.

Sallust was a famed Roman historian and politician . He was tribune of the people (52 B.C.) and praetor (46). He was ejected (50) from the senate ostensibly for adultery, but more probably because of his partisanship for Caesar. He served with Caesar after his praetorship and was his governor in Numidia; he was subsequently accused of misusing his governorship for personal gain. His principal works are the Bellum Catilinae, on the conspiracy of Catiline and his account of the Jugurthine War, Bellum Jugurthinum. His history of Rome is extant only in fragments; it probably covered the period 78 B.C. to 67 B.C. As a historian Sallust was important as one of the first to write historical monographs dealing with sharply limited events and periods. Although his style is consciously archaic, it is distinguished by its terseness and directness. His character sketches are particularly impressive and vivid, and his work has found as many imitators as critics - Columbia Encyclopedia. Very Scarce. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SMALL BOX 2/Ron4

Little is known about Suetonius' life except that he was briefly the private secretary of Emperor Hadrian. His work, De vita Caesarum [Concerning the Lives of the (Twelve) Caesars] survives almost in full. In it he does little to hide the sexual activities or moral depravity of the Roman court. There are also fragments of a much larger collection of biographies, De viris illustribus [Concerning Illustrious Men]. He gathered together all sorts of anecdotes, and the resultant biographies are lively and informative. The Dutch family of Elzevier (Elzevir; Elsevier) were the foremost printers of their time.
