1 S. 8vo. An den namentlich nicht genannten Buchhändler und Heraldiker Alfred Grenser (1838-1891): "In dem ersten Jahrgange Ihres Adreßbuchs für Freunde der Münz-, Siegel- und Wappenkunde" [Frankfurt am Main, Rommel, 1884] sind Sie so gütig, auf Seite 226 auch meine Adresse mit aufzuführen. Gestatten Sie mir dabei ergebenst geltend zu machen, daß, nach dem von Ihnen im erwähnten Adreßbuch angenommenen System, zur Bezeichnung meiner bezüglichen Sammelneigungen die Buchstaben G. H.

In contemporary limp vellum. First separate edition of Alexandra (Cassandra), and first edition of Chiliades. Title and text in Greek and Latin. In contemporary limp vellum. [16] 180 [8] 268 [4 (last 3 blank)] p. The first separate edition of Lycophron's poem Alexandra, Cassandra's prophecies about Troy, with commentaries by Isaac and John Tzetzes; and the first edition of John Tzetzes' Chiliades. Although the authorship of Alexandra is questioned it is traditionally attributed to Lycophron of Chalcis, the 3rd century BC Greek poet and scholar. The commentaries, elucidating the otherwise rather obscure text, were written by Isaac and John Tzetzes, Byzantine scholars who lived in Constantinople in the 12th century. Alexandra was first published in 1513 by Aldus Manutius (with texts by Pindar, Callimachus, Dionysius Periegetes), the present one is the first separate edition of the text, the second edition overall, and also the first with the commentaries by the Tzetzes-brothers. The second part of the book is a lengthy political (decapentasyllabic) verse, John Tzetzes' most important work, the Variarum historiarum liber (Book of Histories) or the so-called Chiliades, edited Nikolaus Gerbel. Chiliades is a collection of literary, historical, theological, and antiquarian miscellanies, whose chief value consists in the fact that it, to some extent, makes up for the loss of works that were then accessible to Tzetzes. .
