Ebert 15445 Details: Back gilt and with 4 raised bands. Woodcut ornament on the title. § On the lower part of the pages below Ovid's text Juvencius notes in Latin Condition: Binding scuffed corners bumped. Head and tail of the spine damaged. Prize inscription on front flyleaf. Paper somewhat foxed and yellowing. Name and old ink inscription on the flyleaf at the end Note: The Roman poet Ovidius 43 B.C. - 17 A.D 'is perhaps the most consistently influential and popular writer of the classical tradition . Most would agree that it is his Metamorphoses that has had the greatest influence but his other major poems the Heroides Tristia Fasti and particularly his racier works the Amores Ars amatoria and Remedia amoris have played their part in maintaining his reputation as a writer of enduring importance and appeal'. The Classical Tradition Cambr. Mass. 2010 p. 667 § Ovid was widely read in antiquity and remained to be read at the Carolingian court in the Middle Ages. The 12th/13th centuries are even called the 'aetas Ovidiana' for Ovid's love elegy was one of the mainsprings of the phaenomenon of courtly love and its literary expression. His 'Ars amatoria' and the 'Remedia' became even part of the school curriculum. Ovid became also the favourite poet of the Renaissance. Especially his 'Metamorphoses' were a source of inspriration for Boccaccio Dante Petrarca Chaucer Shakespeare Milton and in modern times Kafka T.S. Eliot Freud et many others. § This school edition of Metamorphoses of the Roman poet Ovid is the work of the French Jesuit scholar poet and paedagogue Joseph de Jouvancy or Jouvency in Latin Josephus Juvencius 1643-1719. Jouvancy entered the Society of Jesus when he was sixteen 'and after completing his studies he taught grammar at the college at Compiègne and rhetoric at Caen and the College of La Flèche. He made his profession in the latter place in 1677 and was afterwards appointed professor at the Lycee Louis-le-Grand in Paris. In 1699 he was called by his superiors to Rome to continue the history of the Society of Jesus begun by Niccolo Orlandini and was engaged on this work until his death. . Jouvancy edited a large number of school editions of Latin authors including Terence Horace Juvenal Persius Martial the Metamorphoses of Ovid and the philosophical writings of Cicero such as De Officiis Cato Major and Laelius'. The texts were revised and purged for school use and supplied with footnotes in Latin. 'These expurgated editions were frequently reissued well into the 19th century both in France and other countries'. Source for Jouvancy Wikipedia § This Ovid edition was rather popular. Dozens of editions were published in Europe in the 18th and the first half of the 19th century Provenance: Piemontese provenance. The manuscript prize is for 'Carolus Philippus Testa' of the 'Schola Clarascensis' and is awarded to him in 1717 by 'Magistro Joê Boucher Tullensi'. Most probably a prize for one Carlo Filippo Testa of a school in the Italian city Cherasco Clarescum in Piemonte and donated by a magister named Johannes Boucher from Toul. § The Piemontese origin seems to be confirmed by the inscription on the verso of the flyleaf at the end. It is in Italian and is to thank 'mio caro amico' 'Chiera Pietro da Mondovi' who was a 'compagno in grammatica'. We found a Pietro Chiera from the Piemontese city Modovi who taught Latin grammar at a Piemontese school from 1851 till 1854. § At the end the name 'Rovere Gio Battista da Magliano 1863.' Who this Italian from the Tuscan city Magliano was we could not find out Collation: A-2D12 2E6 Leaf E6 verso blank hardcover

17897210Printed by J. Nichols for George Leigh and John Sotheby 1789. 8vo. First and Sole Edition on laid paper some very mild age-staining; late eighteenth century full calf neatly rebacked in calf to style original leather label gilt preserved red edges a remarkably fresh crisp copy. With the engraved armorial bookplate of a town museum and the donor's original signed presentation slip on front paste-down. Scapula's 'Lexicon' was first published by Henri Stephanus in 1557. This Appendix is dedicated to Anthony Askew 1722-1774 founder of the Bibliotheca Askeviana and an eminent Classical scholar educated at Emmanuel College Cambridge and at Leiden. He became MD in 1750 and was appointed physician to St. Bartholomew's and Christ's hospitals and registrar of the College of Physicians. Himself the author of a manuscript volume of Greek inscriptions his outstanding library was sold by Baker & Leigh in 1775. See Quaritch DEBC p. 323. 'Askew's house was crowded with books up to the garrets. The collection was chiefly Classical and it was its possessor's aim to have every edition of a Greek author' Sale catalogue of the Bibliotheca Askeviana. Sive Catalogus Librorum Rarissimorum Baker & Leigh 1775. The sale of his library lasted twenty days and realised a total of £3993 0s 6d; the principal purchasers were Dr. Hunter Mr. Cracherode the British Museum and the kings of England and of France. Askew's manuscripts presumably including those pertinent to the present work were catalogued separately; their sale took place in 1785. The sale catalogue indicates that an appendix to Scapula's Lexicon was edited by Dr. Chas Burney in 1789 so it is likely that the present work is the title referred to. Charles Burney 1757-1817 classical scholar was the son of Charles Burney the musician and musicologist. Since Burney the younger published numerous tracts and papers relating to Greek literature he could well be the author but we have been unable to verify this attribution from any other source. Extremely scarce. [Printed by] J. Nichols [for] George Leigh and John Sotheby, hardcover

DJ has 1 tear to foot of spine. 4cm. DJ spine sunned.; 612 pages; This book continues the work done in the volumes edited by A. S. F. Gow and D. L. Page entitled Hellenistic Epigrams and The Garland of Philip. It sets out to include all Greek literary epigrams composed before AD 50 and not published in those volumes and extends also to epigrams ascribed to certain imperial Romans. Another author commented on is Leonides of Alexandria whose poems observe curious mathematical laws. The challenge to the authenticity of much of what passes for Simonides and the associated historical discussion constitute one of the most important sections of the book. This edition and commentary will be indispensable to scholars of Greek literature. . 0521229030 . Cambridge University Press hardcover
