20400St Andrews Fife Scotland . 15 December 1855. 4pp. 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condition aged and worn. A good long letter full of content thanking him for a presentation copy of his 'Translations from the Greek Anthology' published without date in London by Nissen and Parker. He has perused most of Macgregor's translations 'with great pleasure & several with a sentiment which the word pleasure too coldly expresses'. He has not 'examined them critically comparing them minutely with the Greek text in order to satisfy myself whether the meaning of the Authors was faithfully rendered. I have thought it better & more consonant with your professed design to look at your translations from your own point of view and judge whether you have clothed the spirit of the original in the dress which the Authors themselves had they written not in Greek but in English would probably have employed.' An interesting discussion of the difficulties of translating from Greek 'the most flexible of all languages' into English 'its structure singularly devoid of flexion' follows. He praises some of the work of the Greek and Roman poets as 'literary gems polished to a finished perfection & with a chaste beauty of setting which leaves nothing to be desired'. On the final page of the letter he has as he explains 'jotted down a few words phrases & lines which by a careful elaboration you may perhaps amend' although he considers that 'all in all your translation seems to me to be in general remarkably well & sometimes felicitously rendered'. St Andrews [ Fife, Scotland ]. 15 December 1855. hardcover

2009108457U S A: Brown Walker Press. Very Good. 2009. 1st Paperback Edition. Soft Cover. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Octavo 1599425025 Papeback Paperback. Animal Models in Light of Evolution. The central concern of this book is with the 'prediction problem' in biomedical research. In particular the authors examine the use of animal models to predict human responses in drug and disease research. The arguments discussed are drawn from both biological and biomedical theory with numerous examples and case studies drawn from evulotionary biology complex systems theory oncology teratology and AIDS research and analyses of empirical evidence concerning for example data on intra- and inter-species human population studies and statistical studies of the predictive utility of animal models. This book comes to the unique conclusion that while animals can be successfully used for many endeavours in science such as basic and comparative research they cannot be used to predict drug and disease response in humans. The arguments presented are rooted in the history philosophy and methodology of biomedical research. This book will be of interest to anyone involved directly or indirecdtly in biomedical research including physicians veterinrians and scientists and anyone interested in the history philosophy and methodology of science. In contrast to books written by and for the animal rights movement and books written by and for the animal-based research industry this book honestly examines all sides of the scientific arguments for using animals in science and concludes that each group in turn exaggerates the flaws or strengtrhs of using animals. There are areas in science where animals can be viably used but there are also areas where they cannot be so used.

A vast collection assembled ca. AD 900 by the Byzantine schoolteacher Constantine Cephalas included the earlier collections as well as a large number of inscriptional epigrams collected from various parts of Greece and Asia Minor. The Palatine Anthology assembled by an unknown scholar soon after expanded Cephalas to approximately 3700 epigrams adding much Christian and ekphrastic poetry. “To this manuscript we owe almost our entire knowledge of Greek epigram from Meleager to Agathias†Oxford Classical Dictionary 3rd rev. ed. p. 102. In the 13th century the Byzantine monk Maximus Planudes produced this reduced version of the Palatine Anthology rearranging the epigrams in seven books with extensive subdivisions adding some epigrams not included by the Palatine Anthologist most of which came from a different version of Cephalas’ collection but also bowdlerizing erotic passages and omitting what he considered improper. Most manuscript copies were made from the Planudean Anthology the earlier Palatine Anthology having been forgotten. Until the latter’s rediscovery in 1606 the Planudean Anthology was the Greek Anthology and it exerted a huge influence throughout the Renaissance. “The Greek Anthology is one of the great books of European literature a garden containing the flowers and weeds of fifteen hundred years of Greek poetry from the most humdrum doggerel to the purest poetry†OCD.<br /> <br /> Although Planudes’ holograph manuscript was by this time in the collections of Cardinal Bessarion in Venice the Greek scholar Janus Lascaris used a different manuscript for the present edition; this version was followed by all subsequent editors until the latter half of the eighteenth century. <br /> <br /> This was the first of three editions with the Euripedes and the Gnomae printed by di Alopa using a striking uppercase typeface in two fonts designed by Lascaris to imitate epigraphic letter-forms appropriately for these epigrams many of which had been preserved in stone carvings. As he explains in his dedicatory letter in this way he hoped to avoid the complications of reproducing Greek script. Lascaris’ type contained ONLY CAPITAL LETTERS with breathings and accents cast and set separately and attached to the letters of the smaller font by means of solder or wax so that its body matched perfectly that of the larger font. Though visually arresting such a typeface proved insufficiently compact for the printing of scholia and two years later a true lowercase fount − just as complicated as those condemned by Lascaris − was introduced to print the commentary for the editio princeps of the Argonautica. <br /> <br /> This copy is from the first issue containing the final unsigned quire with Lascaris’ dedicatory letter in Latin to Piero de' Medici which was suppressed from some copies no doubt those still unsold after Piero was proscribed from Florence and fled the city following the entry of King Charles VIII on 8 November 1494. The neat annotations in this copy are in precisely the kind of Greek humanist hand that Aldus would use for his Greek type.  Some of the later annotations appear to supply textual corrections from the Palatine Anthology.<br /> <br /> ISTC ia00765000; Goff Suppl.
