Bel exemplaire de cette édition, extrêmement rare' ('Catalogue des livresde la bibliothèque de feu M. le marquis De Terzi', this copy, 1861, lot 195). The earliest recorded private owner of this copy was a priest in Bergamo, and the last the Bergamese Marquis de Terzi. It was the second edition issued in northern Italy, and one of only three works printed by the de Bruschisthe first printers in Reggio Emilia. 'This is a good example of the rivalry between the prototypographers, five Italian incunabula of the "Scriptores rei rusticae", by five different printers, in three cities; three editions by three different printers in one of them, Reggio Emilia [] After that the tradition of the four "Scriptores" was common' (Sarton, 'Hellenistic Science and Culture', 388). This florilegium of agricultural works was devised for a readership interested in the classical rustic virtues of landownership and the practical aspects of country life, with topics as varied as the best place to set up a beehive, horticulture, remedies for dogs with flees and sick horses, ways to scare snakes off stables and regulations for workers. Marcus Porcius Cato (234-149 BC) was a Roman statesman, military officer and author. His only complete, extant work, 'De Agri Cultura' (c.160 BC) is a manual on the management of a country estate reliant on slaves, with a special interest in the cultivation of vines. A prolific writer patronised by Augustus, Marcus Terentius Varro (116-107BC) based his 'Rerum rusticarum libri tres' on his direct experience of farming. He notably warns his readers to avoid marshlands, where 'animalia minuta' that cannot be seen by the human eye may be breathed in or swallowed and cause illnesses. A soldier and farmer, Lucius Moderatus Columella (4-70AD) is best known for his 'Res rustica'in this edition with a commentary by Pomponius Laetuswhich deals with a wealth of activities including the cultivation of vines and olives, the farming and treatment of animals, and the management of workers. Inspired by Columella and much admired in the medieval period, Palladius's (C4-5AD) 'Opus agriculturae' (or 'De re rustica') provides an account of the typical monthly activities of a Roman farm, and mentions the utility of building mills over abundant waterways to grind wheat.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Fine. [GILT INITIALS] 8vo. ff. (liv) 295 (i). Italic letter with Roman. Initials supplied in gold with red penwork, printer's device to t-p and final ep, a few woodcuts of agricultural instruments and land measurements, a.e.g. Very light age yellowing, the odd marginal spotting. A fine, very well-margined c…opy, crisp and clean, in early C18 French crimson morocco in the style of Derome, marbled paper to pastedowns, cover edges gilt to a triple rule, gilt inner dentelles. Spine in seven compartments, with large gilt thistle, rosettes and foliage, gilt title and printer's name. Armorial bookplate of William George Arthur Ormsby-Gore, 4th Baron Harlech, to front pastedown, silk marker. The early initials painted gold with red penwork were probably produced in France by an anonymous artist. They reflect types based on Roman epigraphy, especially Geoffrey Tory's manual 'Champfleury' (Paris, 1529). They may have been inspired by the gilt initials often executed for Jean Grolier. The finely gilt thistles on the spine closely resemble those in Barber, 'Printed Books and Bookbindings', FL. 75, W.Cat.212. A fine, large copy of this successful collection of famous classical texts on agriculture, edited by the friar and humanist Giovanni Giocondo and integrated with material from the Giunta edition of 1521. The thorough subject index which precedes the texts was devised for a C16 readership interested in the classical rustic virtues of landownership and the practical aspects of country life, with topics as varied as the best place to set up a beehive, horticulture, remedies for dogs with flees and sick horses, ways to scare snakes off stables and regulations for workers. Marcus Porcius Cato (234-149 BC) was a Roman statesman, military officer and author.

A prolific writer patronised by Augustus, Marcus Terentius Varro (116-107BC) based his 'Rerum rusticarum libri tres' on his direct experience of farming. He notably warns his readers to avoid marshlands, where 'animalia minuta' that cannot be seen by the human eye may be breathed in or swallowed and cause illnesses. A soldier and farmer, Lucius Moderatus Columella (4-70AD) is best known for his 'Res rustica' in twelve volumes and the shorter 'De arboribus'. Intended as a manual of husbandry, 'Res rustica' deals with a wealth of activities including the cultivation of vines and olives, the farming and treatment of animals, and the management of workers. 'De arboribus' contains information on horticulture, subdivided by kind of tree. Inspired by Columella and much admired in the medieval period, Palladius's (C4-5AD) 'Opus agriculturae' (or 'De re rustica') provides an account of the typical monthly activities of a Roman farm, and mentions the utility of building mills over abundant waterways to grind wheat. These texts, first published together in Venice in 1472, enjoyed wide circulation in C16 Italy and France. This copy was part of the library at Glyn Cywarch, owned by William George Arthur Ormsby-Gore, 4th Baron Harlech.USTC 800776; Brunet V, 246; Rénouard 109:9; Graesse V, 331: 'Texte de la première Aldine avec quelques corrections empruntées à la Juntine de 1521.'.

In C18th gilt-ruled calf over board, skilfully rebacked, gilt spine in compartments with lettered red morocco label, cover edges gilt, some minor rubbing to covers and corners has been properly repaired. An excellent copy. The Florentine humanist Pietro Vettori (1499-1585) edited this collection of agricultural works. Vettori s introductory letter to Cardinal Marcello Cervini, later Pope Marcello II, though for a very brief period, bears signature Florence 1541 . The first imprint appearing in this book includes the works of two important authors of ancient Rome. The first author, Cato the Elder, also called the Censor , was a senator and historian known for his conservatism and opposition to Hellenization. His manual on running a farm is a miscellaneous collection of rules of husbandry and management, including sidelights on country life in the 2nd century BC. The second writer, the scholar Varro, is the author of Rerum rusticarum libri tres (Three Books on Agriculture), which has been described as the well digested system of an experienced and successful farmer who has seen and practised all that he records. Harrison, Fairfax (1918), Note Upon the Roman Agronomists . The second imprint includes two works by Columella, who was probably the most prominent writer on agriculture of his time. His Res rustica in twelve volumes forms an important source on Roman agriculture, together with the works of Cato and Varro. In manuscripts and early editions of Columella, the short work De arboribus (On Trees) is placed as the third book of Res rustica. However, it is clear from the opening sentences that it is part of a separate work. The earliest editions of Columella, such as this one, group his works with those of Cato, Varro and Palladius. Some modern library catalogues follow Brunet in listing these under Rei rusticae scriptores . Brunet, V, 246 ; Renouard, 55-2 ; Adams, S-817.
