Chez Jean Lesnier., à Saumur 1666, in 12 (9x15,5cm), (30) (1f.bc) 231pp. (2)., relié.


First Edition. Rare. Absent the BN of France and the French catalogs. A copy in the British Library, but nothing in the English catalogs. Thumbnail of the printer on the title page. Absent Brunet and QuÚrard. Graesse V, 323. Sheepskin Full Brown used the early nineteenth century. Back to nerves Jansenist. Split bits. Flush caps. Rubbed together. One of the first translations of the first Alcibiades. Estimated translation, more faithful and elegant in style, the scholar Tannegui Lefèvre (1615-1672). Notes in the margins of the translation and endnotes, added remarks. This dialogue aims to politics, Alcibiades was an Athenian politician and a general. He has 20 years in the dialogue and it is already consumed with ambition. In the First Alcibiades, Socrates attempts to show how his young interlocutor is not yet ripe to address the policy, since it is necessary to know yourself before you can command others with justice. --- Please note that the translation in english is done automatically, we apologize if the formulas are inaccurate.
