Illustrated with 12 engraved portraits. 8 373; 2 448 pp. 8vo. Later edition of this famous collection of humanist satirical letters illustrated with 12 full-page portraits of prominent humanists. A note in OCLC comments on the long running authorship debate: "Authorship of the Epistolae formerly attributed to Reuchlin Erasmus Hutten and others. More recent researches have made it almost certain that Crotus Rubeanus and Ulrich von Hutten were the main contributors. To Crotus are credited the first 41 letters: to Hutten the 7 letters added later to the original series and most of the 62 letters of the second series with the possible co-operation of a third person Hermann von dem Busche. The authorship of the rest remains doubtful J.A. Raspe unknown books

17773006455London and Paris: Barbou 1777. Joints chafed and head of spine slightly chipped. Duodecimo with a frontispiece to the first work; contemporary dark green morocco sides bordered and spine panelled in gilt all edges gilt. <p><p>The beautifully-printed Barbou edition of Utopia bound as often with the matching edition of Erasmus' Praise of Folly. </p> <p>The friendship between Sir Thomas More 1478-1535 and Erasmus 1469-1536 was one of the great scholarly alliances. More's Utopia 1516 was a revolutionary work of philosophy which inaugurated the entire tradition of the modern imaginary voyage but it was also a book to which a small coterie of his greatest friends contributed particularly including Erasmus. More also played an important part in turn in the writing of Erasmus' Moriae Enkomion - the 'praise of folly' but also a pun on the 'praise of More' - which is said to have been written whilst they were staying at More's London house. It was first published in 1511. </p> <p>This Barbou edition of both works is particularly attractive. The Barbou family was in business from the early sixteenth-century through to the beginning of the twentieth and was known in the later 1700s for their superb editions of the Latin and Greek classics not unlike a French Baskerville.</p> </p> .
