Quintus Horatius Flaccus (dit) HORACE & André DACIER

Oeuvres d'Horace en latin et en françois avec des remarques critiques et historiques

Chez les Frères Wetstein, à Amsterdam 1727, in-12 (9,5x15,5cm), (14) CLVI ; 323pp. (2) 264pp. et 363pp. (2) 259pp. et (2) 299pp. ; XXIV (2) 415pp. et (2) 375pp. (2) 565pp. et (2) 452pp. (6) 223pp., 5 volumes reliés.


Mention fourth revised edition, corrected and augmented. A frontispiece head of the first volume. Full brown sheepskin smooth. Back with four nerves decorated with arabesques boxes and golden coins as brown morocco. All slices speckled. Two caps head frayed, two caps tail slightly hilly. Several sheets restored (small angular gaps text) in the third volume and a care sheet at the end of the fourth volume. André Dacier translated and commented most of the Greek and Latin authors, renewing in early eighteenth considerable work of philologists and scholars of the sixteenth century. His work was highly esteemed and tasted even during the nineteenth century and took place despite him in the quarrel between the ancients and the moderns. His translations remain a milestone in historical versions that we possess ancient authors. --- Please note that the translation in english is done automatically, we apologize if the formulas are inaccurate.
