The work contains a description of textiles and ancient Roman dress and was specifically meant for the entertainment and edification of children. Although the title page states that it is the second edition it is actually the third printed by Estienne. It is nearly identical to the second but uses small caps for the first word of every chapter to make the structure of the text clearer.The work is the first part of a series on Roman antiquities written by Lazare de Baïf 1496-1547 in the late 1520s. It discusses ancient Roman hats and shoes carpets and rugs and the colours of wool and other textiles with French translations of many of the terms. De Baïf's work was edited and abridged by Charles Estienne 1505-1564 scholar physician and younger brother of printer Robert Estienne 1503-1559. It was a huge success with more than a dozen editions recorded for the first ten years and was followed up by the Estiennes with several other similar children's books.De Baïf was a humanist poet and wealthy diplomat. He was the French ambassador in Venice and Germany. He hired Charles Estienne as a Latin tutor for his son Jean-Antoine de Baïf 1532-1589 who later became a poet. Estienne initially abridged De Baïf's works to provide simplified Latin readings for his student but soon published it for the enjoyment of other children as well. He was an elegant writer of Latin verse and is commended by poet Joachim du Bellay as having introduced a few valuable words into the French language.A water stain in the lower outer corner of the leaves and a small hole in the lower margin of page 6-8.

De re vestiaria libellus ex Bayfio decerptus: addita vulgaris linguae interpretatione in adolescentulorum gratiam atque utilitatem.

1539495Lyon 1539. 8vo. Sebastian Gryphius Later vellum with a brown morocco label on the spine with the author and title lettered in gold red sprinkled edges. With a woodcut printer's device on the title-page and final page of the first 3 works each work with a decorated woodcut initial. 4 works in 1 volume. 65 11 3 blank 1; 54 7 2 blank 1; 97 15 pp.; 18 119 1 blank ll. Early edition of one of the first children's books ever published together with the second and third part of the series. Charles Estienne 1504-1564 served as private tutor to Jan Antoine de Baïf son of the humanist and diplomat Lazare de Baïf ca. 1496-1547. He planned a series of books that were to be instructive but also specially written to entertain children and give them pleasure in learning. This was a radical Renaissance notion at a time when most school books merely contained standard texts often from classical antiquity that children were to memorise and recite. The first two parts of the series were abridged adaptations for children with French glossaries of the popular works on classical antiquity by De Baïf respectively on Roman dress and Roman vessels. The third part of the series was from Estienne's own hand. It gives the names and descriptions of plants and trees with French translations of all botanical terms. First published at Paris by Robert Estienne in 1535 all three children's books were first published at Lyon by the scholarly publisher Sebastian Gryphius in 1536. The present copies are the second Lyon editions.The final work is first edition of a scholarly text book on weights and measures including weights of money based on information drawn from written sources throughout history. It was compiled by Robert Ceneau 1583-1560 who was the bishop of Vence Riets and Avranches respectively.With ink annotations on the front end papers. The vellum is somewhat soiled. The work is somewhat browned throughout occasionally foxed and water stained. Otherwise in good condition.l Ad 1: Adams B 44; Pettegree & Walsby 2529; USTC 79950 11 copies; ad 2: Adams B 56; Pettegree & Walsby 2530; USTC 79830 7 copies; ad 3: Adams S1732; Durling 1395; Hunt 45; USTC 79951 15 copies; ad 4: Adams C 1253; STC French p. 97; USTC 146886 23 copies. hardcover
