The first edition of the Septuagint printed in England. 8 1279 1; 186 2 pp. plus terminal blank. 1 vols. 4to signed in 8's 195 x 143mm. The first edition of the Septuagint printed in England with the Scholia the scarce printing in quarto format. The text is derived from the Sixtine text and edited by John Biddle 1615-1662 the Unitarian controversialist who was imprisoned by the Parliamentary Commissioners for his religious views. <br /> The SCHOLIA . has a separate title-leaf register and pagination. The same setting was imposed in both quarto and octavo formats the latter with rules separating the columns of text. In regard to institutional representation the edition in quarto is much more uncommon than that in octavo: ESTC locates 4 copies of the quarto printing in North America as opposed to 19 of the octavo printing. Occasionally Daniel's reprint of the New Testament is bound up with the octavo printings to form a complete Bible. Brunet cites that format but notes the sale of a copy on "Gr. Pap." presumably a copy in this format. Over the last 35 years ABPC records sale of one copy in quarto 1999 and four in octavo.

196252438Graz: Akademische Druck-u.Verlagsanstalt 1962. Hardcover. Very good. Two volumes large 8vo: pp. 16 966 6; 2 920 42. Publisher’s light blue cloth. A nearly fine clean set with some slight erosion/scuffing at the covers of the second volume. <br /> <br /> Modern photo-reprint of this celebrated work of early modern biblical scholarship. First published in 1752 it was until the twentieth century regarded as "the most elaborate and valuable of all the critical editions of the New Testament" Orme. Edited by the scholar Johann Jakob Wetstein 1693-1754 a scion of the Amsterdam printing family who produced Gerhard von Maestricht's New Testament of 1711 the original edition includes the editio princeps of two pseudepigraphic works ascribed to Saint Clement of Rome which survive in Syriac. At his native city of Basel in 1713 Wetstein defended a thesis on the various readings of the New Testament. "After collating MSS. in various libraries he at length obtained in 1733 a professorship in the Remonstrants’ college at Amsterdam in succession to Le Clerc. In 1730 the Wettstein press published his Prolegomena anonymously and in 1735 he edited for the same firm a revision of G. v. Maestricht’s Testament. At length in 1751-2 he produced the critical edition at which he had been labouring for many years. Perhaps in deference to the opinions of his friends Wettstein did not print in his edition the text of Codex A as he seems at first to have intended or a recension of his own but merely reproduced the Elzevir text with very few variations. Immediately below however he indicated the changes which he considered absolutely necessary from which it is easy to construct ‘Wettsteins’s text.’ Nearly all these proposed changed -- which according to Reuss number 159 -- had appeared in previous editions and are generally accepted do-day. . Below this matter stands the critical apparatus the most elaborate which had yet been published giving innumerable variants and citing as authorities for and against these a vast body of witnesses -- MSS. versions early fathers and printed editions. Wettstein introduced the practice of indicating uncial MSS. by roman letters and cursive MSS. by arabic numerals. In the revised and enlarged Prolegomena preceding the text which give some account of his labours and controversies Wettstein displays a marked antipathy to all the earliest MSS. which he suspected of having been corrupted by the Latin versions. The Animadversiones at the end of vol. 2 are more temperate and possess higher value. A distinctive feature of the book is the commentary printed at the foot of the page. This forms a curious treasury of notes illustrating both the matter and the language of the inspired writers by copious extracts from all kinds of authors -- classical patristic and rabbinicâ€. References for the original edition: Dibdin 4th ed. 1: 156. Le Long/ Masch 1 1778: 243-46. Orme Bibliotheca Biblica 465: “Wetsteins’s merits as a critic’ says Dr. Marsh “undoubtedly surpass the merits of his predecessors: he alone contributed more to advance the criticism of the Greek Testament than all who had gone before him: and this task he performed not only without support either public or private but during a series of severe trials under which a mind of less energy than Wetstein’s would infallibly have sunk.†Full title and imprint: He Kaine Diatheke Novum Testamentum Graecum editionis receptae cum lectionibus variantibus codicum mss. editionum aliarum versionum et patrum nec non commentario pleniore ex scriptoribus veteribus Hebraeis Graecis et Latinis historiam et vim verborum illustrante Joannis Jacobi Wetstenii.

Cadell 1786. 175 x 105 mm. 7 x 4 1/4". 368 pp. 1 leaf ads. <br/> Contemporary brown "school cloth" rough linen raised bands. Front flyleaf with owner inscription of John Cutler dated Sept 21 1789 four lines of Latin doggerel threatening anyone who steals the book with hanging and two large copperplate trials of Cutler's signature. ESTC N63834. Not in Darlow & Moule. A little fraying at top and bottom of joints light foxing and toning throughout due to paper quality a couple of small ink stains but a surprisingly appealing copy the text extremely clean and the unsophisticated makeshift binding--remarkably--with no significant wear.<br/> <br/> This is an almost startling survival: an 18th century New Testament in Greek in its original utilitarian binding preserved in condition far better than what could be anticipated given the audience of generally uncareful pupils for which it was intended. Considering the usual depredations of school children the rough school cloth should have been worn to shreds long ago but against the odds it has fortuitously escaped hard use and now gives us a glimpse of an important element of the English schoolroom very close to its original condition. One particularly delightful aspect of our copy is the flamboyant declaration of ownership by a pupil called John Cutter who inked his name no fewer than four times in different styles and with calligraphic flourishes across the flyleaf. Cutter's neatly penned book curse threating any would-be thieves with hanging may have helped to preserve the book as it now exists. In fact there are few signs of use by any owner rightful or unlawful. The leaves are free from any markings and the insubstantial binding appears to have rarely left the shelf. Excudebant A.

See: Verron "Les Reliures de l'Entrée de Charles IX à Paris 1572 . . . réalisées par Claude Picques" in Bulletin du Bibliophile 2014 no. 2 pp. 282-98. Just a touch of rubbing to extremities front hinge of second volume open but everything quite tight text with occasional mild browning small spots trivial smudges or tiny worm trails but A BEAUTIFUL COPY clean and fresh internally and the bindings tight and lustrous with very bright gilt<br/> <br/> With exceptional visual appeal these two precious volumes shining with gilt and containing the Greek New Testament from the renowned Estienne family of printers are of special interest because of their typography their bindings and their provenance. With the expressed goal of printing Greek texts from manuscripts in the royal library at Fontainebleau François I established the post of royal printer in Greek in 1539 appointed Robert Estienne I 1503-59 to the position in 1542 and commissioned the renowned Claude Garamond to cut a new Greek font for this project. To design the type the King called on his own celebrated calligrapher Angelo Vergecio who produced in collaboration with Garamond three different sizes of what came to be called the Royal Types or "grecs du roi." According to Schreiber "These cursive Greek types are universally acknowledged as the finest ever cut." In 1548 and 1549 Robert Estienne issued the press' first Greek Testament known as the "O mirificam" edition for the opening of the dedication to the king in 16mo or "pocket" format using the smaller font of Garamond's "grecs du roi." In 1550 Robert a Protestant moved to Geneva while his son Robert II 1533-70 a Catholic remained in Paris and took over as the royal printer in Greek. Our 1568 Testament--the only one issued by the son--is a reprinting of the "O mirificam" edition but expanded with the critical apparatus from the 1550 folio edition issued by the father. Schreiber notes that our edition is interesting from a typographical point of view as it contains an even more minute version of the already small grecs du roi type for the Table of Chapters. The exceptionally pretty volumes are done in the style of royal binder Claude Picques fl. 1539-78 and employ a decorative roll very similar to one that appears on the spine of the vellum bindings Picques did for "L'Entrée de Charles IX à Paris" 1572. Our volumes once graced the library of Constantinople collector Georgios Arvanitidis 1876-1953 whose library included a number of Estienne Greek editions. They were later in the distinguished library of Frederick B. Adams 1910-2001 director of the Pierpont Morgan Library from 1948-69 and then president of the prestigious Association Internationale de Bibliophilie from 1974-83. And they were featured in the celebrated 1929 Gumuchian catalogue of 398 historically exceptional bindings as item #71. Robert Estienne II unknown
