Flavius Philostratus 'the Athenian' (ca. AD 170-05) was a Greek sophist who studed at Athens and later lived in Rome. He was author of the admirable Life of Apollonius of Tyanna and Lives of the Sophists. The Greek sophist and historian Eunapius was born at Sardis in AD 347, but went to Athens to study and lived much of his life there, teaching rhetoric and possibly medicine. He was initiated into the mysteries and was hostile to Christians. His Lives of Philosophers and Sophists (mainly contemporary with himself) is our only source for knowledge of Neo-Platonism in the later part of the fourth century.

Hildesheim, Olms, 1983. L-8vo. x,257 pp. Cloth (A-O A.63).

8vo, pp.169, [6], [1, blank]; printed in Greek and Latin in parallel columns, woodcut device to title, woodcut and factotum initials, woodcut head- and tailpieces; some inoffensive foxing (principally to title-page), some light dampstaining, withal a very good copy; bound in contemporary English speckled and blind-ruled calf, edges speckled red, endguards of late sixteenth-century English archival manuscript waste on paper, sewn on three sunken tawed thongs; lightly rubbed; nineteenth-century armorial bookplate of the Earl of Macclesfield to inside front board, with blind armorial stamp to first two leaves, manuscript shelfmarks in ink and pencil to endpapers and inside boards, and shelflabels to spine.An uncommon edition of the twenty-four biographies of Eunapius of Sardis (c.345415), valuable as a source for the neo-Platonic, and anti-Christian, philosophy of the fourth century; like the Emperor Julian, whom he admired, he wrote to oppose Christianity and defend his own beliefs. His subjects included Plotinus, Porphyry, Iamblichus, and Epiphanius, 'of whom Eunapius gives an idealized picture in order to compete with the biographies of Christian saints' (OCD), and he includes one female philosopher, Sosipatra. The Latin translation by Hadrianus Junius first appeared alongside the editio princeps of the Greek (Plantin, 1568), though the source text supplied to Junius by Joannes Sambucus was defective. The Lives were extensively corrected by Commelin in 1596, partly using a manuscript in Heidelberg (now Vat. Pal. gr. 209), and for this edition an extract about embassies from Eunapius' now fragmentary History has been appended. The present edition was issued contemporaneously by Paul Estienne, Jean Vignon, Samuel Crespin, Jacques Stoer and the Chouëts, each under their own imprint, sometimes alongside an edition of Diogenes. As often, this book was given the imprint Cologny ('Coloniae Allobrogum') instead of (Protestant) Geneva, though some copies do indeed contain 'Genevae' on the title. USTC 1945793. Language: Greek.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good-. First Edition. Two parts, jointly issued, octavo. Collation: A-M8, N4 (= 100 leaves); ?-?8, [xi]4 (= 108 leaves). 194, [6, index]pp. (errors: 21 for 31, 117 for 119); 213, [1, privilege], [1, colophon], [1, blank]pp. (errors: 44 for 43). Separate title for each part, with woodcut printer's device. First part with printed marginalia. Colophon at second part dated 12 Kalends March, 1568. Eighteenth century tree calf (expertly rebacked, retaining spine); gilt-tooled spine with morocco lettering piece; marbled endleaves. Light wear at cover extremities; text clean and fresh throughout. About very good. Editio princeps. First printing of the Greek text, with Latin translation by Adrian de Jonge (1511-1575). An admirer of emperor Julian and a staunch opponent of Christianity, Eunapius of Sardis (c. 345-c. 420) here writes of many obscure neoplatonists in the East. He "gives an idealized picture in order to compete with the biographies of Christian saints" (Oxford Classical Dictionary, ed. 2012). Helping to fill a lacuna in late antique history, De Vitis Philosophorum et Sophistarum "is valuable as the only source for the history of the neo-Platonism of that period" (EB 13th - 9: 890). A wonderfully tangential detail is found in Junius' acrostic encomium to Queen Elizabeth I. The English edition of 1579 (apparently translated at Junius' request) is also dedicated to Elizabeth.

(Romans 11,19) The text is printed in 2 colums, Greek text with opposing Latin translation) (Condition: Binding soiled and worn. Back chafed. Title page foxed. Paper yellowing) (Note: The Greek neo-Platonist Eunapius was born in Sardes ca. 345 A.D. He was an admirer of the last pagan emperor Julian, and a convinced opponent of christianity. His historical work survives, owing to its anti-christian tenor, only in excerpts. Still extant are the 'Lives of the Sophists' written about A.D. 396. 'They follow Philostratus' model (Life of Apollnius) and on the basis of first-hand information deal mainly with 4th century Neoplatonists. Eunapius gives an idealized picture in order to compete with the biographies of Christian saints'. (OCD 2nd ed. 416) The 'editio princeps' was published in 1568 in Antwerp. This edition already had the Latin translation of the humanist Hadrianus Junius, or in Dutch Adriaen de Jonghe, who was born in 1511 in Hoorn. From the presses of the Flemish scholar/printer Hieronymus Commelinus, 1550?-1597, came the next Eunapius edition, Heidelberg 1596. It was reissued with exact the same title by Paulus Stephanus in 1616. Commelinus, a native of Douai and a protestant, had to flee because of the persecutions. In 1569 he is a student in Heidelberg, and in 1572 he surfaces as bookseller in Geneve, where he cooperates with Pierre de St. André (Officina Sanctandreana). He immatriculates for the second time in Heidelberg in 1585, and is invited in 1587 by the Prince-Elector (Elector Palatinus) to establish a printshop as typographus principis'. Commelinus' special interest were the publishing of classical texts, edited by great scholars like Casaubon, Scaliger and Gruter. He often did so with the help of manuscripts from the local 'Bibliotheca Palatina'. Commelinus himself was also active as an editor. In the short preface to this Eunapius edition Commelinus tells how he found 2 Greek manuscripts in the Library of the Prince-Elector (now known as Bibliotheca Palatina), compared them with the text of the 'editio princeps', which was edited quite insufficiently (Eunapiio ita misere affecto), and how he in doing so could correct and supplement Eunapius. (Collatis itaque Palatinis duobus cum editione Iunii, quae tuto potuere, correxi, supplevi) (Leaf a2 recto). Commelinus printshop produced in 10 years nearly 140 editions. This 1616 edition was produced by Paul Estienne, who had taken over the Estienne-firm in Geneva after the death of his father Henri Estienne (Henricus Stepanus II). With him ends the Geneva branch of the printer's dynasty of the Estiennes. Renouard lists between 1603 and 1627 only 27 editions) (Provenance: On the front pastedown in pencil: '13 maart 1963', written by the Flemish linguist Walter Couvreur, 1914-1996, who was an Orientalist, and professor of Indoeuropean linguistics at the University of Gent. It indicates the date of aquisition. The place of acquisition he wrote on the flyleaf at the end: 'Groningen, Bouma'. The price was 8 guilders) (Collation: A - L-8) (Photographs on request) 500 gr.
