DJ has 1 tiny tear 1 cm and faint edgewear.; In the sixth century B. C. Pherekydes of Syros the reputed teacher of Pythagoras and a contemporary of Thales and Anaximander wrote a book about the birth of the gods and the origin of the cosmos. Considered one of the first prose works of Greek literature Pherekydes' book survives only in fragments. Drawing on these fragments as well as the ancient testimonies Schibli here reconstructs the theo-cosmological schema of Pherekydes. From the mythopoeic creation account colorful narratives of a divine marriage and a battle of the gods and his remarks on the soul Pherekydes emerges as a figure who moved between myth and philosophy and as an important witness to early Greek thought in its various manifestations.; 0.82 x 8.62 x 6.18 Inches; 240 pages . 0198143834 .

Gaius Julius Phadrus (1st century), was a Thracian slave who translated Aesop's fables into Latin verse. He was certainly more than a reproducer of Aesop, and can be credited with adding many fables of his own. A brief history of the Barbou Classics is given by Schweiger (II 1269). In 1742 Lenglet de Fresnoy persuaded Coustelier to start a series which was meant to be a French rival to the Elzeviers - even surpassing them in terms of scholarship and typography. Though this effort soon exhausted itself, it was revived by Jean Joseph Barbou in 1753. Seven of these attractive little books appeared in 1753-1755, and though there were more issued in the next decade, there was not enough market interest to support a sustained publishing program. They still stand as a monument to French scholarship and typography. This copy is priced low enough to allow for a nice new binding. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SMALL BOX 5
