Condición: Sehr gut. xxvi, 322 + Tafeln; xlvi, 384 S. + Tafeln; Text Englisch-Latein. Tadelloser Zustand beider Bände.// Vitruv (Marcus Vitruvius Pollio) war ein römischer Architekt, Ingenieur und Architekturtheoretiker. Er lebte im 1. Jahrhundert v. Chr. Die Zehn Bücher über Architektur sind das einzige erhaltene antike Werk über Architektur und nach Vitruvs eigenen Angaben auch das erste lateinische Werk überhaupt, das eine umfassende Darstellung der Architektur sowie des damaligen Kenntnisstandes des Bauingenieurwesens zum Ziel hatte. Die Bücher sind dem Kaiser Augustus als Dank für dessen Förderung gewidmet. Sie weisen den Charakter eines Lehrbuchs mit literarischen Anklängen auf und gehören somit eher dem Sach- als dem Fachbuchgenre an. /altphilologie ISBN: 9780674992771 la Gewicht in Gramm: 1100 8°; gebunden, rote Ganzleinenbände mit goldgeprägtem Rückentitel und Deckelvignette;
