An attractive copy of a very rare edition. ; 8vo. 16.8 x 11 x 3.1 cms; 468 20 pages; Diogenes Laertius who lived around 230AD wrote in Greek and compiled biographies of the major Greek philosophers from earlier source material. Much of his text is comprised of the famous sayings of Greek philosophers. Though he is one of our main sources for the history of Greek philosophy his work is not up to modern scholarly standards being haphazard unreliable and uncritical. His article about Epicurus is considered especially valuable as it contains some original letters by the philosopher that are not extant elsewhere. The Latin translation dedicated by Cosimo dei Medici is by St Ambrose Traversari of the Camaldoli Order 1386-1439. As a theologian he defended the primacy of the Pope. As a humanist he devoted himself to translating into Latin important Greek texts in particular the writings of the Greek Church Fathers. Sebastian Greyff known as Sebastian Gryphius 1491-1556 was born in Swaben Germany. He set up shop in Lyon and started the Griffin workshop in 1536. By the 1540s he was known as the Prince of the Lyon Booktrade publishing scholary accurate editions of the Greek & Latin classics in 8vo and 16mo formats. He fomed a humanist circle around him comprising members such as Alciati Sadoleto Scève and Dolet. His son Antoine continued the business after his death. Jean de Tournes who later became a major printer in Lyon was his foreman. Baudrier H. L. Bib. Lyonnaise VIII p. 145 . Apud Seb. Gryphium unknown

Petit Jean Petit's 4th device on t.p.; Guy Marchant's device Silvestre 39 IA; 153.795;. ærtius divides all the Greek philosophers into two classes: those of the Ionic and those of the Italic school. He derives the first from Anaximander the second from Pythagoras. After Socrates he divides the Ionian philosophers into three branches: a Plato and the Academics down to Clitomachus; b the Cynics down to Chrysippus; c Aristotle and Theophrastus. The series of Italic philosophers consists after Pythagoras of the following: Telanges Xenophanes Parmenides Zeno of Elea Leucippus Democritus and others down to Epicurus. The first seven books are devoted to the Ionic philosophers; the last three treat the Italic school.<br /> The work of Diogenes is a crude contribution towards the history of philosophy. It contains a brief account of the lives doctrines and sayings of most persons who have been called philosophers; and though the author is limited in his philosophical abilities and assessment of the various schools the book is valuable as a collection of facts which we could not have learned from any other source and is entertaining as a sort of pot-pourri on the subject. Diogenes also includes samples of his own wretched poetry about the philosophers he discusses.<br /> Diogenes is generally as reliable as whatever source he happens to be copying from at that moment. Especially when Diogenes is setting down amusing or scandalous stories about the lives and deaths of various philosophers which are supposed to serve as fitting illustrations of their thought the reader should be wary. The article on Epicurus however is quite valuable since it contains some original letters of that philosopher which comprise a summary of the Epicurean doctrines. IEP.

EXTREMELY RARE FIRST PRINTING OF THE EDITIO PRINCEPS OF THIS REMARKABLY IMPORTANT BOOK AND A COPY WHICH IS OF THE VERY FINEST STATE AND CONDITION. The editio princeps of Diogenes Laertius’ Lives of the Famous Philosophers is the most important source of our knowledge in the history of Greek philosophy from Thales to Pyrrho. <br> The text was known only in the Latin translation by Ambrogio Traversari 1386-1439 which made its first appearance in print in Rome around 1472 and which was widely reprinted during the fourteenth and the first decades of the sixteenth century. This is the first printing of the book in its original language.<br> The edition is dedicated by the typographers Froben and Episcopius to the scholars and in their epistle they declare their publishing plan: to print at least a work per year able to combine usefulness and pleasure. <br> The text follows a manuscript provided by the professor of Greek and Hebrew at the University of Wittenberg Matthaeus Goldhahn 1480-1553 called Aurigallus probably a copy of the codex Raudnitzianus Lobkowicensis vi.F.c.38 at the time preserved in Komotau Bohemie in the house of the politician Bohuslav Lobkowitz von Hassenstein c. 1460-1510 and presently in the Library Národní Knihovna of Prague.
