130076Leipzig Lipsiae In Libraria Hinrichsiana 1822. 8vo. 284 p. Contemporary dull stiff wrappers 22 cm Ref: Graesse 6/1191; Ebert 19587; Brunet 41457 Details: Margins uncut Condition: Spine covered with a strip of brown paper. Boards worn. Paper yellowing and foxed Note: The honour of reviving the study of Greek in the Netherlands belongs to the Dutch classical scholar Tiberius Hemsterhuis 1685-1766 who became professor Mathematics and Philosophy at the Athenaeum of Amsterdam at the age of 19. His great example was the English classical scholar Richard Bentley 1662-1742 with whom he corresponded early in his career. In 1705 Hemsterhuis was promoted to a professorship in Harderwijk and in 1717 he was appointed professor of Greek at the University of Franeker. In 1740 he was finally called to Leiden. He produced an edition of Pollux 1706 'Luciani colloquia et Timon' 1708 the complete works of Lucianus 1743 and of the Plutus of Aristophanes 1744 a work which Gudeman calls 'epochemachend'. He contributed also notes to the editions of many other scholars. Sandys observes that 'the work of a Hemsterhuis was worth whole bundles of the mechanically manufactured products of a Burman'. Sandys 2451 Hemsterhuis was the founder of a Dutch school of criticism the so-called 'Schola Hemsterhusiana' which had disciples in Valckenaer Jacob van Lennep and David Ruhnken. The last one was the most famous of his pupils. 'Hemsterhuis has had the supreme felicity of being immortalised by a 'laudator eloquentissimus'. The 'Elogium' delivered in 1768 by his devoted pupil Ruhnken on resigning the office of Rector is one of the Classics in the History of Scholarship. It presents us with the living picture of the perfect critic'. Idem ibidem § The Dutch scholar of German origin David Ruhnken or Ruhnkenius 1723-1798 was born in Pommern and was sent by his parents in 1737 to the Friedrichscollegium in Königsberg where he read Latin authors together with his friend Immanuel Kant. To finish his studies he went in 1744 to Leiden to study Greek under Tiberius Hemsterhuis whom he admired. He later told his biographer Wyttenbach that he found in his teacher the combined gems of Leiden classical scholarship Scaliger and Salmasius in one person. Hemsterhuis wanted to create a worthy successor and appointed him to assist him as Reader in Greek. In 1761 Ruhnken succeeded the Latin chair vacated by Oudendorp. He became one of the leading scholars of his days. 'Die Führerstellung der Philologie erbte . von Hemsterhuys der Pommer David Ruhnken der ganz zum Holländer ward und die vornehme und behäbige Würde eines Princeps criticorum zu wahren wusste. Als solchem hat ihm Fr.A. Wolf die Prolegomena gewidmet. . Musterhaftes Latein galt ihm soviel wie Wissenschaft. Aber als Lehrer muss er glänzend gewesen sein. . Alles was Ruhnken veröffentlicht hat ist in seinen Grenzen tadellos'. U. von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff Geschichte der Philologie Lpz./Bln. 1921 p. 39/40 § Ruhnken was immortalized by Daniel Wyttenbach 1746-1820 born at Bern in Switzerland who came to Holland in 1770 to stay there like Ruhnken before him. 'In the next 28 years he held professorships at Amsterdam 1771-99 and then returned to Leyden as Ruhnken's successor for 17 years 1799-1816'. Sandys 2463 He published an edition of the complete Moralia of Plutarchus with Latin translation 1795-1806 a work of permanent value. On the death of Runken he became the most influential classical scholar in the Netherlands. 'The highest praise must be assigned to his 'Life of Ruhnken' a work of absorbing interest to his scholarly contemporaries which still retains its importance as a comprehensive picture of the Scholarship of the Netherlands and not of the Netherlands alone in the age of Ruhnken'. Idem 2/465 § The third biography in this convolute concerns the Dutch politician author and bibliophile Johannes Meerman 1753-1815. The eulogy was first published in Amsterdam/The Hague in 1817. Lindemann was aware that Meerman was not a classical scholar and that he in no way equalled Hemsterhuis and Ruhnken in scholarship and style yet he added the Life because he derived much pleasure from reading it he tells in the preface and hoped that it would stimulate young students 'iuvenes ad meliora eninentes et litterarum studia penitus amplecti cupientes'. Praefatio editionis secundae p. X Meerman who received private tuition from Ruhnken p. 232 is best known as a bibliophile. The Museum Meermanno House of the Book Huis van het boek in The Hague formerly called Museum Meermanno-Westreenianum was named after him and holds part of his huge collection of rare books and manuscripts.

154613096Basilae Basel Bâle Basel: Froben 1546. Fine. Froben Basilae Basel Bâle Basel 1546 33 x 22.50 cm relié Colophon: Basileae per Hieronymvm Frobenivm et Nic. Episcopvm mense Septembri M.D.XLVI. First edition. Decorated with numerous historiated initials. Printer's device on the title page and verso of the final leaf. Absent from French catalogues but present in English catalogues 2 copies in Germany at the GBV union catalogue of northern Germany and one at the University of Munich. The 1544 edition published in Paris does not include Erasmus's notes and the complete assembly of authors gathered in this edition; the Parisian edition was reissued in 1551 in Lyon by Gryphium but not this Froben edition which reproduces only Egnazio's edition. The first edition of Suetonius dates from 1479. Full sheep binding 17th century decorated raised spine red morocco title label. Overall rubbed and worn on boards numerous scratches upper headcap missing 2 upper corners broken and missing. Fine interior condition with pale dampstaining running through about twenty pages at top center pp. 29 to 45. Several pagination errors same number repeated leaf skipped without lack. The evident interest of this edition was to gather together all the writers of antiquity who wrote about the Roman empire not only Suetonius but also rarer writers such as Dio Cassius translated by Merula Herodian translated by Angelo Ambrogini Poliziano Spartianus or Lampidius Velleius Paterculus Vulcatius Gallicanus Ammianus Marcellinus. Two commentators: Erasmus died in 1536 and Giovanni Battista Egnazio 1478-1553. Froben 1501-1563 is one of the great publishers of the Renaissance and the worthy successor of Johann Froben the first of the dynasty who established his printing house in Basel in 1491; it was with him that Erasmus was linked and worked and Jerome Froben merely reaped the fruits. This edition is the alliance of Froben and Nikolaus Episcopius his brother-in-law. Gothic manuscript note: ""pour le couvent de l'observance des Lyon"" and manuscript pagination of the authors.
