Description
narrationum collectanea [Latin trsl. & Greek ed.] Gulielmus Xylander. 1590 L. Zetzner, 8vo, cont. blindstamped vellum (soiled, front cover loosening), spine on 4 raised bands, 2 parts: 348 (= 347)-[5], 344 (= 346)-[46] pp. (paper age-toned). Good copy.
Very rare Strasburg ed. by the German humanist Xylander (Holzmann, 1532-1576) of the famous philosophical autobiography of the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius (121-180). Of equal importance are the rare Greek texts added by the editor, mostly on curiosities in Antiquity, and including one of the few old Greek texts on the Olympic Games.
