Scapula obseruatam, & iam admodum omnibus probatam, diligenter expressum : id est, duplici methodo constans: una naturali, eaque ditissimis Graecae linguae thesauris brevi facileque comparandis apti¼ima, qua ex primitiuorum & simplicium fontibus deriuata atque composica di lucide dedacuntur: aliora mere alphabetica adscriptis numeris, qua, tanquam indice minus exercitatis ostenditur, ubi in illa naturali methodo singulae voces inueniantur: ut epistola ad lectorem mox plenius declarabit

Descripción

Tall 8vo, ff. [720]; title printed within elaborate architectural border and a few decorative head- and tail-pieces and initials throughout; contemporary full vellum with overlapping fore edges, title in mss. inked on front cover and spine; the vellum soiled and a little worn, and peeled away from portions of top and bottom of spine revealing the sewn (and intact) binding structure; mss. titles faded and rubbed; lacking front free endpaper, and title-page border the victim of an early doodler: a few small portions have been filled in with ink; a sturdy, sound copy, despite the wear. An abridgement of Estienne's magnum opus of 1572, Thesaurus graecae Linguae, achieved by the author/printer's former assistant, Johann Scapula. The lexicon portion of this tome, translating from Greek to Latin, is followed by appendixes on Greek dialects, ancient Greek grammar, Greek numbers and counting systems, dating systems of the Classical world (including Athenian, Egyptian, and Hebrew, among others), and a listing of irregular verbs.These additions make the Lexicon an important reference for students of both the Classical and the Renaissance eras. This edition not in Vancil (but see p. 83) or OCLC. N° de ref. del artículo 27004
