Supralibros on all covers of The Society of Writers to the Signet. Facciolati 1682-1769 and Forcellini 1688-1768 were both philologists and lexicographers at Padua the latter being the student and later the collaborator of the former. Their editorial work on the 1719 Calepino convinced them of the need for a totally new work. Forcellini spent 40 years reading all of the classical Latin writers. He also studied inscriptions coins and medals. The resulting vocabulary is enormous and proved to be the basis for all subsequent works of the kind.

40578FALKE Jacob Von. ART IN THE HOUSE. Boston: L. Prang 1879. 4to. Publisher's full brown morocco elaborately bli and gilt stamped all edges gilt. xxx 356 pages added chromolithographic ti page 60 plates. First American edition. Holzenberg # 77. Falke was perhaps the most important German writer on taste in the Aesthetic era. He has written a history of interior decoration--beginning with the Greco-Roman house through the eighteenth century. Critical observations on style and harmony are filtered through aesthetic principles. Successive chapters deal with decorating the house in various stages: the floor wall ornaments ceilings furniture and decorations on the table. His work reflec many of the "artistic" principles in vogue in England and elsewhere: the dependence of Form on function; the importance of good design in everyday living; and the preferred use of historical styles as inspiration rather tha strict models for modern decor. This edition was translated by C.C. Perkins from the third German edition. The 60 plates are a combination of five chromolithographs and 55 albertypes and typographic etchings. In addition there are one hundred and sixty-six in-text figures.
