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.
