  • Imagen del vendedor de SINGLE LEAF from: Pharsalia Ejusdem ad Calpurnium Pisonem Poemation Praemittitur Notitia Literaria Studiis Societatis Bipontinae - Editio Accurata (1783) (Original Early Letterpress Printing) a la venta por Bookwood

    Unbound. Condición: Very Good. A SINGLE LEAF from the following title: Pharsalia Ejusdem ad Calpurnium Pisonem Poemation Praemittitur Notitia Literaria Studiis Societatis Bipontinae - Editio Accurata - by Marci Annaei Lucani (Marcus Annaeus Lucanus / Lucan). Printed in Biponti (Zweibrücken, Germany) by Ex Typographia Societatis, in 1783. This being PAGE 157/158. Contains 30 lines of Latin text printed in single column. Single page, printed on both sides, recto & verso. In VERY GOOD condition, with faint staining. The author of this title, Marci Annaei Lucani (Marcus Annaeus Lucanus) (39 AD-65 AD), better known in English as Lucan, was "a Roman poet, born in Corduba (modern-day Córdoba), in the Hispania Baetica. Despite his short life, he is regarded as one of the outstanding figures of the Imperial Latin period. His Roman epic poem, Pharsalia, tells of the civil war between Julius Caesar & the forces of the Roman Senate led by Pompey the Great. The poem's title is a reference to the Battle of Pharsalus, which occurred in 48 BC, near Pharsalus, Thessaly, in northern Greece. Caesar decisively defeated Pompey in this battle, which occupies all of the epic's seventh book. Though probably incomplete, the poem is widely considered the best epic poem of the Silver Age of Latin literature. The poem was begun around 61 AD & several books were in circulation before the Emperor Nero & Lucan had a bitter falling out. Lucan continued to work on the epic - despite Nero's prohibition against any publication of Lucan's poetry - & it was left unfinished when Lucan was compelled to suicide as part of the Pisonian conspiracy in 65 AD. A total of ten books were written & all survive; the tenth book breaks off abruptly with Caesar in Egypt". The publisher's place on title page of this title, Biponti (Bipontium / Bipontum), is the Latin name for Zweibrücken (in Germany). At the ducal printing office at Zweibrücken the fine series of the classical editions known as the Bipontine Editions were published in the late 18th century (as per this title). This 12mo-size example of early letterpress printing is from a substantial collection of fine antiquarian material from Budapest. These pages survived multiple wars & decades of communist rule, in which countless books were destroyed. This original letterpress printed page comes with printed sheet with full details. A digital image of the title page of the original antiquarian book which this particular page came from will also be provided with purchase. A nice example of early letterpress printing. Ideal for framing. Scarce.
