1686, 3rd edition. (hardcover) Good. [title leaf], [10], 473pp. 32mo. Diminutive volume, measuring 2.5" wide x 4.5" tall x 1.25" thick. Bound in full vellum; title compartments in leather to spine, lettered in gilt. Entire spine with diamond-ruled decorative pattern in gilt; gold much rubbed and faded. The binding was presumably done or, at the very least, extensively repaired in the mid-19th century given the fact that there is a bookplate on the front-pastedown dated 1867 with portions of what appears to be an original leather spine laid beneath. Vellum dust-dirtied; rubbed; circular dirtied spot at head of top cover, presumably from a long-since removed sticker. Covers stiff, somewhat splayed. All edges of textblock done in blue marbling; top edge notably dust-darkened. Marbled eps. Armorial bookplate to front-pastedown that reads "Esperance En Dieu / 1867"; common enough in antiquarian collections. Textblock surprisingly clean through; some dirtying and toning to the prelims; some dampstaining at the foot of the textblock early. Else internally clean. Text in the original Latin on the left within black-border textbox; vulgar Italian translation on the right. Title page device of a wood-cut vignette of a ship. Overall, an attractive, uncommon antiquarian copy of this text. This issue being the 3rd Edition of this work. First published in 1657 in Valenza. Second issue in 1670 in Venice.…

Edges of boards and corners rubbed and some surface scouring to sides. Various notations to the prelim pages tell us the book once belonged to one Mary Cholmondely with the date of 1835 written beneath her pencilled hand. Another manuscript note, this time in pen, claims "this volume was bought from Neumayer in Charing Cross Rd, London, on the 6th January, 1933, by Charles J.E. Grundy - Westminster 9/1/33". In yet another hand we have the ownership signature of one Ricardi Heber, with the date 1791, inscribed in faded ink to the flyleaf. According to Wikipedia, a Richard Heber (1773-1833), descibed as an 'English book collector' born in Westminster, edited the works of Silius Italicus, before developing a taste for collecting classical works of literature. 'His taste broadening, he became interested in early English drama and literature, and began his collection of rare books in these departments. Succeeding on the death of his father in 1804 to large estates in Yorkshire and Shropshire, which he considerably augmented, he forthwith devoted himself to the purchase of rare books'. Heber is perhaps the most famous and oft-cited exemplar of early nineteenth-century bibliomania, and of book collecting on an epic scale. Book. …

'Over and over again it will be found that the source of some ancient piece of wisdom is Pliny.' (PMM 5) A handsome first edition, first issue of Philemon Holland's renowned English translation of Pliny's Natural History. The most popular of Holland's translations, it had never before been printed in English, and would not be attempted again for another 250 years. One of the greatest translators of the Elizabethan age, Holland's Pliny was an important source for Shakespeare. 'In Othello's allusion to the Pontic Sea, Shakespeare was clearly drawing upon Pliny's Historie as translated by Holland⦠Similarly Pliny has also been cited as a source for Othello's reference to the "medicinal gum" of "the Arabian trees"' (Payne, Search for Meaning, 63), and many trace Caliban in The Tempest to Holland's Pliny. 'The importance of Pliny lay not so much that he was an inexhaustible source for monsters, eclipses, and the stranger habits of all created things, but that in the pages of Philemon Holland's translation Shakespeare found that emphasis on Nature which he employed and re-interpreted in the tragedy' (Evans, The Language of Shakespeare's Plays). First edition in English, first issue (with the Islip imprint); 2 vols, folio (30.5 x 20.7 cm); 2 title pages each with woodcut allegorical device, woodcut head- and tailpieces, decorative initials, last leaf with errata on recto and colophon on verso, one or two instances of early marginalia; lacking first blank leaf in each volume, scattered light foxing and staining, a few marginal open and closed tears, scattered small rust holes costing a few letters, faint dampstaining to a few gatherings; late 18th-century half calf over marbled paper-covered boards, edges speckled red, sometime rebacked with original spines laid down, gilt tooling to spines, red morocco title labels to spines lettered in gilt; a handsome copy. Provenance: H. Holloway (early ownership signature to each title); William Baker (19th century ownership inscription, dated 1820, to each title); Dr. D. Ritchie (acquisition note to front free endpaper of each volume); Sterling l. Spicer (ownership inscription, dated 1925, to front free endpaper of each volume).
