Important Latin & Greek dictionary / lexicon. Line for line reprint of the Louis Elzevier 1651 edition. 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. Willems 1343.

Édition à la date de l'originale 'à la sphère'. Claude Joly destina cette édition commentée du 'Codicille d'Or' d'Erasme à l'instruction du Dauphin, fils de Louis XIV. L' 'Epitre à Charles d'Autriche' et le 'Codicille d'or' sont accompagnés d'essais et de critiques complémentaires ayant trait aux théories du pouvoir royal. "Par le fait qu'il s'attaque aux institutions existantes, on peut considérer Claude Joly comme un précurseur des écrivains qui contribueront à ruiner les principes de l'Ancien Régime" (H. See, 'Les idées politiques au XVIIe s.', p. 122). (Brunet, II, 1044. Van der Haegen, 'Bibliotheca Erasmiana', p. 112. Willems, n°1355). Très bel exemplaire très, très bien relié par David.

Just barely perceptible rubbing to joints and extremities one leaf with tiny burn hole affecting a couple of words intermittent minor foxing negligible ink spots here and there other trivial imperfections but an extremely attractive copy the text fresh and clean and the very well-preserved binding with lustrous leather and bright gilt.<br/> <br/> This is a remarkably pretty copy of an extremely influential but generically elusive work printed by a legendary press and bound by the founder of a celebrated French binding dynasty. First published in 1524 the "Colloquia" comprise 63 conversations originally written for Erasmus' students on varied and overlapping topics but these urbane meditations soon became widely read as they covered subjects that intrigued the important thinkers of the day. Their influence was so profound that it is not saying too much to claim that they helped to speed the Reformation. Although they are difficult to classify precisely one could categorize them as including in general terms exposure of ritualistic fallacies invective against corruption within the church examination of popular imposture deploring of contemporary personal sins practical advice for laymen and miscellaneous discussion of amusing topics. In specific terms the text takes on such controversial topics as the value of pilgrimage celibacy and abstinence from meat on Fridays and other prescribed days. Erasmus' "Colloquia" was frequently published by the Elzeviers once in French and a total of nine times in Latin. The text was universally adopted for school use up through the 18th century. Although our lovely little binding is unsigned Culot firmly identifies its tools as those used by Jean-Claude Bozerian 1762-1840. He was the elder of the Bozerian brothers François is referred to as "le jeune" and was active in Paris from 1795 to about 1810. He began his career in Lyon as an apprentice bookseller printer and bookbinder eventually deciding to focus on the latter craft. Marriage to the widow of binder Pierre Boulier allowed him to establish a binding workshop in Paris where he was joined by his brother. His bindings were soon much in demand by French bibliophiles who appreciated their superior materials tasteful design and flawless execution--all characteristics that are plainly evident in the present case.

Engraved title and engraved arms. Verso of front free endpaper with engraved bookplate of Emmanuel Martin see below. Willems 601; Rahir 599; STCN 832762849; USTC 1027902. Half-inch crack to head of front joint minor wear to head of spine corners a little rubbed isolated faint foxing otherwise a fine and pretty copy clean and fresh internally and in a lustrous binding.<br/> <br/> With striking gilt elaboration inside and out this is a beautifully bound and delightful Elzevier edition of Charron's celebrated work "On Wisdom" first printed in 1604. Inspired by the letters of Seneca and Stoic in spirit the work gives a meticulous and reasoned argument for living an austere virtuous and purposeful life in harmony with nature. But Charron's rationalism combined here with a lack of interest in revelation as a source of truth made his work suspect to the theological authorities of his day and he was accused of portraying religion as unnecessary for morality. His attempt to revise the work to satisfy his critics was interrupted by his death. A lawyer before he became a theologian and preacher Charron 1541-1603 desired at age 45 to join a monastic community but was rejected for being too old. Our volume was lavishly bound by Pierre Marcellin Lortic 1822-92 who apprenticed with the Gruel bindery before opening his own workshop in 1844. Over the next 40 years he won numerous awards became a preeminent Parisian binder and was named a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor. Beraldi says of Lortic: "For the decoration of a binding Lortic with real passion conceived the bound book as a jewel: he loved the rich the sumptuous the flamboyant." Beraldi put Lortic in the first rank of gilders even though Pierre did not do the gilding with his own hand. Instead he employed the best doreurs available including Wampflugh Maillard and Domont before his talented son and eventual successor Marcellin took over those responsibilities in the 1870s. Our binding was likely commissioned by the previous owner the formidable French bibliophile Emmanuel Martin 1821-82 whose library was sold in 1877. Our volume is lot #64 in the auction catalogue "Collection de M. Emm. Martin: Livres Rares et Précieux Anciens et Modernes" selling according to a manuscript indication in the margin for 161 francs a very substantial sum representing modern buying power of about $3000. The catalogue description says it is a "charming example" of the rarest Elzevier edition of this work and gives special praise for the "perfectly executed" binding rendered "with the most remarkable finesse" in the style of Le Gascon an artisan active in Paris in the first half of the 17th century and revered as perhaps the outstanding gilder of his day. This is a very great compliment to Lortic and it is not surprising that as the auction catalogue states the present example of his work was featured in the Museum of Ornamental Arts as part of the Art Treasures Exhibition held in Manchester in 1857.
