This second and improved Aldine edition is essentially a reprint of the edition of 1516, edited by Giovanni Battista Cipelli, called Egnazio (1478-1553), with the addition of annotations by Erasmus, which were first published in the Froben edition of 1518. Both Aldine editions contain the relevant texts of Aurelius Victor and Eutropius with the continuation by Paulus Diaconus. The full work was once the common manual of almost everyone who wished to study Roman history, and because of this long and hard use, it is extremely difficult to obtain a clean and perfect example - Renouard. This second edition is considered the more valuable, as containing an 'Index Memorabilium' and the notes of Erasmus and the Venetian philologist Joannes Baptista Egnatius (ca. 1473-1553). Gaius Suetonius Tranquillus, commonly known as Suetonius (ca. 69/75-after 130). Suetonius was a close friend to Senator and letter-writer Pliny the Younger. Pliny describes him as 'quiet and studious, a man dedicated to writing'. Through Pliny, Suetonius came into favor with Trajan and Hadrian. Under Trajan he served as secretary of studies (precise functions are uncertain) and director of Imperial archives. Under Hadrian, he became the Emperor's secretary. In 122, Hadrian dismissed him for disrespectful behavior towards Empress Vibia Sabina. Suetonius may have later regained imperial favor under Hadrian and returned to his position. It was probably in Hadrian's time that he wrote his most important surviving work - this set of biographies on the Lives of the Twelve Caesars. Entitled 'De Vita Caesarum' it deals with successive Roman rulers, from Julius Caesar to Domitian. It also includes other texts on Roman history, notably Eutropius. This collection of ancient Roman historians is dedicated to the great book collector - Jean Grolier, and is followed by a letter from Erasmus commending the edition as well as Egnatius' scholarship.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Original full leather bdg. with its miklep (traditional flap), embossed shamsa (mystical sun) on boards. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Ottoman script. [8], 263 p. Sarlavla page decorated with traditional ornaments. First edition of this extremely rare and the first translation of the Anabasis of Alexander in the Ottoman / Turkish literature. One of 1010 copies. The Anabasis of Alexander was composed by Arrian of Nicomedia in the second century AD, most probably during the reign of Hadrian. The Anabasis (which survives complete in seven books) is a history of the campaigns of Alexander the Great, specifically his conquest of the Persian Empire between 336 and 323 BC. Both the unusual title "Anabasis" (literally "a journey up-country from the sea") and the work's seven-book structure reflect Arrian's emulation (in structure, style, and content) of the Greek historian Xenophon, whose own Anabasis in seven books concerned the earlier campaign "up-country" of Cyrus the Younger in 401 BC. The Anabasis is by far the fullest surviving account of Alexander's conquest of the Persian Empire. It primarily revolves around the military history, reflecting the content of Arrian's model, Xenophon's Anabasis; the work begins with Alexander's accession to the Macedonian throne in 336 BC and has nothing to say about Alexander's early life (in contrast, say, to Plutarch's Life of Alexander). Nor does Arrian aim to provide a complete history of the Greek-speaking world during Alexander's reign. Arrian's chief sources for his writing of the Anabasis were the lost contemporary histories of the campaign by Ptolemy and Aristobulus and, for his later books, Nearchus. One of Arrian's main aims in writing this work on history seems to have been to correct the standard "Vulgate" narrative of Alexander's reign that was dominant in his own day, primarily associated with the lost writings of the historian Cleitarchus. The Anabasis gives a broadly chronological account of the reign of Alexander the Great of Macedonia (336-323 BC), with a particular focus on military matters. George Rhasis (Yorgaki Razi) translated Anabasis Alexandrou = "History of Alexander the son of Philip" the work of Xenophon under the title "Târîh-i Iskender bin Filipos". This is the first translation of an ancient Greek historian into Turkish. Georgios Rhasis, who was one of the first writers of the French-Turkish dictionary in the early period, was an Ottoman intellectual who worked as an instructor and translator in Ottoman and French languages. He also taught at the Eastern Languages School in Paris and continued her studies in Corfu and Paris. In 1821 he came to be in Istanbul as a famous orientalist. Rhasis left the city and the homeland he lived in to settle in Tsarist Russia due to concerns during the Greek Revolution in 1821. The Bulaq or El-Amiriya Press is the first official and governmental printing press to be established in Egypt, and functions according to industrial printing basis, causing not just a qualitative but also a quantitative and knowledgeable leap in science throughout the Arab region. It's established in 1820 by Muhammad Ali Pasha of Egypt and Sudan (1769-1849) and it was part of Muhammad Ali's inclusive development plans for the modernization of Egypt.
