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.

It remains a standard work for the Roman period and the advances in technology and understanding of natural phenomena at the time.

(58), 614, (42) pp. (12), 632, (86) pp.Pliny's renowned Natural History in its second publication in English (repeating, with corrections, the 1601 first publication), translated by Philemon Holland, the greatest translator of the Elizabethan age. The "Naturalis Historia" is one of the largest single works to have survived from the Roman empire to the modern day and purports to cover the entire field of ancient knowledge, based on the best authorities available to the author. Pliny claims to be the only Roman ever to have undertaken such a work. It comprised 37 books in 10 volumes and covered over 20,000 facts on topics including the fields of botany, zoology, astronomy , geology and mineralogy as well as the exploitation of those resources. It remains a standard work for the Roman period and the advances in technology and understanding of natural phenomena at the time. Some technical advances he discusses are the only sources for those inventions, such as hushing in mining technology or the use of water mills for crushing or grinding corn. Much of what he wrote about has been confirmed by archaeology. ''We know from Pliny that there were important pearl fisheries in the Gulf [.] Pliny identifies Tylos (Bahrain) as a place famous for its pearls [. He] attests that pearls were the most highly rated valuable in Roman society, and that those from the Gulf were specially praised [.] The pearl related finds at the site of El-Dur indicate the site was integrated into the maritime trade routes linking the Roman Empire, the Persian Empire, India and South Arabia'' (Carter). Book 6 holds a chapter that gives the first detailed account of the regions around the Gulf, including what are now Qatar, the Emirates and Oman. Binding rubbed; front hinge splitting. Includes the final printed leaf in vol. 2, containing the publisher's advertisement to the reader that all errors have been corrected in the present edition and the errata leaf (included in the same position in 1601) has become unnecessary rather than having been mistakenly omitted.

His discussions of Pliny's "Naturalis Historia" was first published as "Castigationes Plinianae" in 1492, in which he made over 5000 corrections to the original text. Due to this work and other classical works he translated or edited he was considered a leader authority on Latin and Greek work on antiquity.

Erstausgabe
Folio. 268 ff. Contemporary vellum with ms. title to spine. Fine incunabular edition of Pliny's famous encylopedic work, covering the entire field of ancient knowledge. With his "Natural History", Pliny gives a mathematical and physical description of the world, discusses geography, ethnography, anthropology, human physiology, zoology, botany, mineralogy, sculpture and painting. As "a purveyor of information both scientific and nonscientific, Pliny holds a place of exceptional importance in the tradition and diffusion of culture" (DSB). Through the present work Pliny "gives us by far the most detailed account of the coast of the United Arab Emirates that has come down to us. Chapter 32 of Book 6 (§ 149-152), beginning near the Qatar peninsula, proceeds to describe the Emirates islands, tribes, and coast right up to the Musandam peninsula, before continuing on south along the coast of Oman. As such, it is a mine of invaluable information on the UAE in the late pre-Islamic era" (UAE History, online). Pliny "completed his 'Natural History' in 77 AD and, to judge from his account of the peoples and places of south-eastern Arabia [.], the area of the UAE was full of settlements, tribes, and physical features, the names of which he recorded for posterity" (Ghareeb/Al Abed 54). - "This appears to be the first edition of Barbarus' recension, the note of a 1496 edition by the same printer being probably due to a confusion (Hain 13099)" (BMC). Dated 1497 in the colophon, but the dedication is dated the Ides of February in the twelfth year of the Doge Augustinus Barbadicus (30 Aug. 1497 to 29 Aug. 1498). - Numerous contemporary marginalia. Slight worming to gutter and some waterstaining near end; spine restored. Late 19th-c. bookplate of Dr. J. Klauber on front pastedown. - HC 13101*. Goff P-799. GW M34321. Klebs 786.14. Proctor 4893A.
