Hardcover. Condition: Gut. 4to. (6) lvs., 458 pp., (9) lvs. Repeated printer s device on title and last leaf verso. Contemporary blind-stamped calf (spine new, 2 corners restored), ties new. Second Latin edition on Pindar s poems (first: 1528), the first one with commentary. Only a small portion of the complete works of Pindar (522 or 518 - ca. 440 B.C.), born in the vicinity of Thebes, has been handed down; most of this deals with songs of praise dedicated to the winners of contests at Olympia, Delphi, at Isthmos and in Nemea. These were often written on commission for aristocrats across the entire Greek-speaking world of the time, including Sicily. Pindar's works were highly regarded in the literature of Rome (e.g. Horace) and admired in England (Milton), France (Boileau) and also in Germany, especially amongst the so-called Romantics (e.g. A. v. Platen); contemporary to this many of his works were translated into German (Humboldt, Hölderlin). Johannes Lonicer (c. 1497 - 1569) entered - like Luther - the order of Augustine early in life, studied in Erfurt and Witttenberg and fell, the more he came under the influence of Luther's teachings, more and more into conflict with the official church doctrines. After periods in Esslingen, Freiburg and Straßburg, where he worked for various publishers as copy editor, he was awarded a teaching chair at Marburg, initially for Greek, later theology. The embossing of the binding is identical on both sides: several different individual stamps within a rhombus-shaped grid: fan-like leafwork , a wanderer supporting himself on a staff and lilies; the half fields at the edges are filled with a beetle stamp surrounded by square frame. The stamps of the wanderer and the beetle stamp are barely mentioned in the literature. The binding could have originated in the Rhine or lower Rhine areas. The flyleaf and endpapers are parchment. Title has larger piece missing at the side (recto small amount, verso minimal text loss) which has been reinforced, edge and fold strengthening, one worm hole also repaired. Additionally several handwritten entries on title, two of which indicate church censorship: one that the author had been sentenced but that he had been reinstated; the second mentions Father Paulus Keuth who had corrected the book according to the Index of Forbidden Books (one can see with what skepticism even an innocent work of the Luther supporter Johannes Lonicer was held in catholic circles, a series of whose polemic pamphlets landed in the Index); a third entry (from the 17th century) mentions the Convent of the Birgitten Nunnery in Cologne as owner. Within the title the name of the translator has been thinly underlined and the words "& illustrior" have been crossed out. Front joint broken, last leaf of gathering reinforced. Both endpapers show old library entries. Light browning throughout, some water staining; some rubrication in red and blue. Page 261 has two lines crossed out (in the hand of the "Corrector" named on title page?).

Leiden, Boston & Köln, Brill, 1999. XII,721 pp. Orig. hardcover (blind stamped light gray cloth with gilt lettering), d./j. 8vo. - Dust jacket with very light shelfwear; cover with a light waterstain at the bottom (not affecting the pages !). (Mnemosyne, Supplementum, Vol. 197). [ISBN: 978-90-04-11381-7]. - Despite the light water stain on the binding, overall a neat copy. A study of three epinicia of Pindar, which have in common that they celebrate victories of Aeginetan athletes and that they respond to the contemporary political situation in Aegina and to circumstances of the victory. The primary objective of this book is to provide an interpretation of each of the three odes as meaningful, coherent works of the literary art. For each ode, it provides a commentary in which problems of text and interpretation are discussed in detail, a structural and metrical analysis, and an interpretative essay, in which the observations of detail are brought together in order to provide an answer to the question as to how the ode at hand could have functioned as a coherent, meaningful epinicion. The introduction addresses questions of method and provides a description of Pindar's style. - Sold out at the publisher. The publisher's official new price was 393,--. …
