Orléans, Couret de Villeneuve, 1767, In-12° de (2)-VI-231-(1) pp., reliure de l'époque de plein veau glacé havane, dos à lisse orné de fers dorés, pièce de titre de maroquin rouge, triple encadrements de filets dorés sur les plats, dentelle intérieure, filet doré sur les coupes, bel exemplaire. Édition en caractères minuscules des Odes, Satires, et Epîtres, avec in fine l'Ars poetica. Chef-d'oeuvre de l'imprimeur orléanais Martin Couret de Villeneuve (1717-1780). Cette édition fut réalisée avec les caractères fondus par son beau-frère, Simon-Pierre Fournier dit Fournier le Jeune, qui fut l'auteur d'un remarquable Manuel typographique. La netteté des caractères pourtant très petits en est excellente. Couret de Villeneuve reprend ici l'édition elzévirienne de 1676, et corrigea la plus grande partie des fautes qu'elle contenait. Les oeuvres poétiques d'Horace, sont ici largement commentées par des notes marginales de John BOND qui les publia, en 1608, à Londres, dans son édition d'Horace. (Brunet - III, 318).

The first Dutch edition of Bentley's edition of Horace in a contemporary full vellum binding;front and back blind-paneled with central decorative motifs, spine with raised bands and author and short title elegantly inscribed (see photograph when uploaded. Page edges are cleanly guillotined and closely, faintly stippled red. Engraved frontispiece, title page in red and black, half-title between the two parts.Following the title leaf there are xx un-numbered introductory pages,717 numbered pages (+ half title leaf between pp. 356 and 357) with "emendanda" on un-numbered verso of p.717, then a 239 page index, verso of P.239 and one following leaf blank.The binding is somewhat rubbed and darkened and would respond well to a careful cleaning. the front joint is splitting narrowly down to the second raised band. There is intermittent separation of the front hinge; the mighty cords of the binding are visible at the hinges front and back. A charismatic volume in a little less than very good condition; the vellum is cream; the binding image does not show this. We would like to know what is the expanded Dutch or Latin of "HFF". Probably from the same early 18th.bindery or library as the 1728 3rd edition we also list.

The second Dutch edition of Bentley's edition of Horace in a contemporary polished full vellum binding;front and back blind-paneled with central decorative motifs, spine with raised bands and "Horatius Bentleii" in gilt on red label Page edges are cleanly guillotined and closely, faintly stippled red. Engraved frontispiece, title page in red and black, half-title between the two parts.Following the title leaf there are xxii un-numbered introductory pages,717 numbered pages (+ half title leaf between pp. 356 and 357). The verso pf P.717 is blank,the corrections listed in the 1713 edition having presumably been executed.There follows a 239 page index (corrected by Isaacus Verburgius, verso of P.239 and one following leaf blank.The binding is somewhat rubbed and darkened and would respond well to a careful cleaning. Cracking of the front joint has been expertly filled and small pieces of the corners and top-edge of the front free endpaper expertly reinforced/replaced. A length of cord (perhaps)has left a pronounde but smooth indentation in the last leaf, which gradually disappears during the receding 100 pages. We wonder whether this happened before the book was bound. A charismatic volume in a little less than very good condition; the vellum is cream; the binding image does not show this. We would like to know what is the expanded Dutch or Latin of "HFF". Inserted loose is a catalogue description by Blackwell Rare Books, the price being £350 or $525.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Editio Quarta [Fourth Edition]. Foolscap 4to. [9], viii-ix, [2], xii, [1], 2-307, [3] pp. Original smooth calf, spine neatly rebacked (likely a contemporary rebacking), with the original spine laid down. Boards are ruled in gilt, all edges gilt, with the spine in six compartment, the second compartment features a maroon morocco label (lettered in gilt). Armorial bookplate of Robert Barclay of Bury Hill, and a late nineteenth or early twentieth-century bookplate of Charles L. Dana. Robert Barclay was a wealthy brewer, and owned the estate of Bury Hill for 150 years. On the estate he created several botanical gardens and ponds, as he was also a botanist (Exploring Surrey's Past, "Dorking: Bury Hill and the Barclays"). Charles L. Dana was a doctor at Cornell Medical College, studying nervous diseases and mental illnesses. He was an avid book collector and a member of the Sons of the American Revolution, the Society of Colonial Wars, and the Century Association. He founded the Charaka Club, a society for New York physicians to gather and discuss issues of literary and historical importance. Exploring Surrey's Past: "Dorking: Bury Hill and the Barclays". Gaskell 383. Wikipedia, ADNB: "Charles Loomis Dana". This volume includes the Epodes, the Satires, the Epistles, the Art of Poetry, and Horace's varied songs, or shorter poems (carmina). A later edition from the Foulis Press, a historic Scottish printer and book-bindery. A Very Good volume with a bit of wear to the boards' corners, and a few, very discreet, contemporary owner's markings.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Second edition. Small (Pot) 8vo. [5], 2-248, [2] pp. Contemporary full calf, spine in six compartments with gilt lettering and decorations, maroon morocco label on the spine, boards' edges show gilt tooling. Gaskell 155. Editio Altera. The second Foulis press edition of Horace, the first Foulis Horace published in 1744. Contains Horace's satires, his Epodes, the shorter poems (known as the Carmina), his Ars Poetica, and his letters (Epistolarum). Oxford Classical Dictionary, "Horace", 724-76. Horace's body of work ranges from comedic to philosophical, rendering him one of Rome's most appreciable but weighty literary figures. He writes about his experiences at the Battles of Philippi and Actium, fighting in Brutus' army. He was lucky to retain his land after being on the losing side of the Roman Civil War. His writings helped him make sense of the violence he witnessed during the war. His letters, a later work, reflect on aging and the best way to lead one's life. The Ars Poetica is Horace's treatise on writing an elegant, well-crafted poem. An instructive text from a master of the form. A lovely edition of several of Horace's most significant works, well-made by the renowned Foulis Press. A Very Good copy with a tiny chip to the foot of the spine and a touch of rubbing to the boards' corners. Leaves remarkably clean.

4to, pp. [ii], xii, 307, [i]. Half-title. Small hole to centre of A4 affecting a couple of words, paper flaw to Q4 resulting in shorter fore-edge margin. Deep red morocco, spine heavily gilt with black morocco label, ornate gilt border to boards, edges dark blue, marbled endpapers. A bit rubbed, joints and endcaps neatly repaired, corners worn, upper hinge repaired, but very good overall. Armorial bookplate of William Scott Kerr of Chatto to front paste-down, and gift inscription to blank endpaper: 'To William Kerr, from his friend James Hope, Edinb. 25th Oct 1823'. The luxurious 'large-paper' quarto imposition - using the same setting of text as the octavo, and therefore capaciously-margined - of the fourth Foulis edition of Horace, following on from the 1744 'Immaculate' edition and reprints of 1750 and 1756 (the latter a medal-winning printing). The process of rearranging the frames has not gone entirely smoothly, with pages 20 (C2v) and 24 (C4v) swapped. Gaskell 383; ESTC T46249.

Erstausgabe
Quarto, with fine engraved frontispiece and vignette on title (title printed in black and red), contemporary panelled calf. The improved second edition of Bentley's celebrated Horace, preferred to the Cambridge first edition of 1711. Although controversial and the cause of much scholarly debate at the time, this important edition by the young Richard Bentley, eventually acclaimed by Dibdin as "Princeps criticorum", was hailed for its hugely extensive notes but questioned for its "conjectures". "A few days after its initial publication Thomas Hearne observed, on 29 January 1712, 'Dr Bentley's Horace is much condemn'd for the great Liberty he hath taken in altering the text' (Remarks, 3.273), and pamphlet attacks soon followed. With more than 700 changes from the vulgate, this was indeed 'unlike any edition of a Latin author ever before given to the world' (Monk, 1.316). Few of Bentley's conjectures are accepted, but many of his accepted emendations began as conjectures before he found support in manuscripts consulted for his notes. Confident in his own divination, Bentley emended 'anything inconsistent with the harmonious measures of classical poetry' (Pfeiffer, 154). Yet, even where his solutions are wrong, Bentley's grasp of textual problems and the learning he brings to bear on them are quite extraordinary. The much quoted note on Odes, book 3, ode 27, line 15 'To us reason and common sense are better than a hundred codices' significantly continues, 'especially with the added testimony of the old Vatican codex'" (DNB). . Provenance: Edward Henry Cooper (1827-1902), Landowner, Lieutenant-Colonel, Grenadier Guards, and Conservative politician, MP for County Sligo (armorial bookplate as "Colonel Cooper"); Alan Treloar (1919-2011), "one of Australia's greatest linguists and classical scholars" and a distinguished and decorated soldier. Binding a little worn and joints weak but in good overall state.

Erstausgabe
Two volumes, large octavo; period English crimson morocco, flat spines ornately gilt in compartments, all edges gilt, blue endpapers. First edition, first issue of Pine's Horace: a particularly fine example of this masterpiece of book-design and 'remarkable enterprise in engraving' (DNB). With every page fully engraved -- including not only the plates, portraits, vignettes, initials and other decorations, but all text too -- it is a tour-de-force of the art, and one of its most famous exemplars. This first issue is identified by having the uncorrected reading 'Post est' in the caption to the Caesar medallion on p.108 of the second volume (corrected in later issues to 'Potest'). The extensive lists of subscribers in each volume (variously 18 and 17 pp.) show the extent to which Pine must have publicised and pre-sold this extraordinary undertaking. There are separate listings for subscribers from Paris, Madrid, Vienna, and other places while Dublin subscribers include a sub-listing of subscribers from Trinity College. Oxford and Cambridge subscribers are also shown separately. "Ouvrage très recherché." ( Cohen-De Ricci). "Pine's complete command of his craft makes this the most elegant of English eighteenth-century books in which text and illustrations alike are entirely engraved"(Ray). "John Pine (1690-1756) may well have been the pupil of Bernard Picart, the great French engraver at Amsterdam: he was the best English engraver in the first half of the [eighteenth] century. His edition of Horace is engraved throughout, text as well as ornament, though it is said that the text was first set in type and an impression transferred to the plate before it was engraved. The results are a unity between decoration and text which at times suggests Didot's Horace of 1799; a contrast between thick and thin strokes in the letters which naturally follows from the engraving process but which foreshadows the type design of Baskerville, Bodoni, and Didot; and the wide "leading" between the lines of the text which did so much to give their pages a brilliant effect" (Printing and the Mind of Man, Exhibition of Fine Printing, British Museum 1963, no.105). . A very handsome set, in fine condition.
