Gaius Julius Phadrus (1st century), was a Thracian slave who translated Aesop's fables into Latin verse. He was certainly more than a reproducer of Aesop, and can be credited with adding many fables of his own. A brief history of the Barbou Classics is given by Schweiger (II 1269). In 1742 Lenglet de Fresnoy persuaded Coustelier to start a series which was meant to be a French rival to the Elzeviers - even surpassing them in terms of scholarship and typography. Though this effort soon exhausted itself, it was revived by Jean Joseph Barbou in 1753. Seven of these attractive little books appeared in 1753-1755, and though there were more issued in the next decade, there was not enough market interest to support a sustained publishing program. They still stand as a monument to French scholarship and typography. This copy is priced low enough to allow for a nice new binding. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SMALL BOX 5

14,3x7,5 cm; 102, (10) pp. Brossura editoriale con titolo in rosso e nero al piatto anteriore (qualche piccola macchiolina di foxing al piatto anteriore e una piccolissima mancanza al margine basso bianco del dorso). Varie tavole illustrate a piena pagina nel testo. Prima non comune edizione di questo scritto del noto studioso e teosofo originario di Pesaro, Augusto Agabiti. Fu tra le menti più progressiste e liberali dell'Italia degli inizi del XX° secolo. Alla sua opera si devono ad esempio le leggi sulla limitazione della Vivisezione degli animali e quella contrastante la piaga dell'alcolismo. Nel clima culturale dei primi anni del secolo, nei quali era forte un'impronta spiritualistica, coltivò interessi teosofici: nel 1904 l'Agabiti incontrò Decio e Olga Calvari, cultori della teosofia della Blavatskij, e con loro fece parte della Società Teosofica, fondata ad Adyar da Henry Steel Olcott e da Annie Besant, dalla quale si allontanò nel 1910 per aderire alla Lega Teosofica Indipendente, fondata l’anno prima a Benares. Collaboratore dal 1907 della rivista «Ultra», ne fu anche il direttore dal 1914. In "Ipazia" l'autore analizza la figura della grande filosofa greca Ipazia considerata come la prima donna martire della libertà di pensiero. Prima rara edizione.
