Early underlining and annotations in Latin within first half of the book and on pastedowns, in three or more hands. A handsome copy of this interesting compendium on Roman agriculture and country life, edited by Giovanni Giocondo from Verona, with dedication by Pietro Bembo. The conjunction of these texts can be found from the Middle Ages. The texts of Cato the Censor and Varro were transmitted together in numerous manuscripts, that of Columella previously lost, was rediscovered by Poggio Bracciolini in the early 15th century, in a 9th century manuscript from Fulda. They were first jointly published in 1472 in Venice by Nicolas Jenson and formed the principal source of information on aspects of Roman rural life, such as wine and olive production, farming, bookkeeping and the breeding and grazing of livestock. The authors, Marcus Porcius (234-149 BC), Marcus Terentius Varro (116-27BC) and Lucius Junius Moderatus Columella (4-c.70 AD), were Roman gentlemen, farmers and landowners. In the dedication Aldo expresses his interest in these treatises and his wish to spend his old age in the countryside. The text opens with Cato's De agricoltura (c. 160 BC), the oldest surviving prose work in Latin, dealing with the development of vine, olive and fruit growing. There follows Varro's Rerum rusticarum (c. 36 BC), divided into 3 books, on farm building and labour, the breeding, management and feeding of animals, especially sheep and birds, fowl, bees and fishponds. It provides the etymology of words, citing earlier authors who wrote on the cultivation of the fields. Columella's "De re rustica" in 12 books, is considered the most important work on agriculture, characterised by the elegance and purity of the style. It is a systematic treatise on rural economy in general: book 1 concerns general matters, such as buildings and labour, 2 soils; 3-5 wines, olives and fruit; 6-7 domestic animals, 8 poultry and fishpond, 9 bees, 10 (in verse) and 11 gardening, 12 a farm manager's wife's duties and recipes for wine and vinegar. Book 10 in dactylic hexameters is a sort of supplement to Virgil's Georgics. Columella's work also includes a separate book on arboriculture, which is part of a larger work. The text closes with Palladius, who lived c. 400 AD and was the last of the Latin writers concerned with agriculture. His work is divided into 14 books. The first presents a general introduction; each of the following 12 describes the works suitable for a particular month. Book 14 is a didactic poem in elegiac verse on the grafting of trees.

Le Libri de re rustica est une réunion de textes didactiques en prose sur l'agriculture et la vie à la campagne, laissés par les quatre grands agronomes antiques Caton l'Ancien, Varron, Columelle et Palladius; y sont abordés la culture des champs et des jardins, l'élevage des abeilles, la pêche, l'économie rurale (recettes de cuisine, de médecine), ainsi que les travaux de plantation. Ces textes sont traditionnellement imprimés dans des éditions collectives et adoptent un ton scientifique et non littéraire comme avait pu le faire Virgile dans ses Géorgiques.Ainsi, dès 1472 et jusque vers le milieu du XVIIIème siècle, ces textesseront régulièrement et collectivement édités sous la coupe des plus grands imprimeurs européens, d'abord en Italie, le berceau de l'humanisme, puis en France eten Allemagne. Dans la deuxième moitié du siècle, on fit plutôt des éditions séparées, il faudra ensuite attendre le regain d'intérêt de la seconde moitié du XVIIIème pour les réalités agricoles et voir ces uvres éditées à nouveau. La seconde partie est constituée du célèbre Commentaire du Songe de Scipion par Macrobe, ainsi que des sept livres de ses Saturnales, banquet philosophique se déroulant à la période éponyme et durant lequel douze devisants dissertent sur l'histoire et la philosophie romaine, puis proposent une explication des textes de Virgile. CesSaturnalessont aussi l'occasion d'un débat sur les aliments et leurs propriétés. De die natali(« Du jour de naissance ») traite de la naissance et de la vie de l'homme, des jours, les mois, des années, des rites religieux, il s'agit d'une importante mine d'information concernant les usages de l'Antiquité:calcul du terme de la naissance, zodiaque,la théorie de Pythagoresur la musique et les planètes, et l'influence sur la durée de gestation. Il y est question de la vie divisée en périodes ou années climatériques, et de sa durée limitée à quatre-vingts ou à cent ans au plus. Censorinus fournit aussi de nombreux repères chronologiques historiques. Très bel ensemble de textes tout à fait symbolique du regain d'intérêt des auteurs de la Renaissance pour les textes antiques classiques ou mineurs, et qui confirme la vision d'une Rome idéale et harmonieuse. | [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION FOLLOWS] Libri de re rustica M.

First Estienne edition, complete with all five parts bound in one volume and rare thus. Robert Estienne was the printer to the king and is especially celebrated for the typographical elegance of his books: this is the earliest text printed entirely in italic by his press and with a type often attributed to the leading designer Claude Garamond. Robert (1503-1559), son of the famous humanist and printer Henri, was appointed "imprimeur du Roi" in 1539 and quickly established his reputation as one of the most learned men of his time, as well as the most influential figure in the Parisian book trade. His Thesaurus Linguae Latinae (1531) was a revolutionary Latin dictionary which laid the foundation of modern Latin lexicography. Until 1543, Estienne had used italic solely to distinguish specific phrases or words in pages of roman type. The present work marked a new direction; the main text is entirely printed using the "Second Estienne Pica Italic font" (see Vervliet, p. 309), a new italic type which had first appeared the previous year in his edition of Cicero's Tusculanarum Quaestionum. Several scholars have attributed this charming, Aldine-esque type to Garamond (1510-1561), a skilled engraver and type designer with whom Estienne started collaborating about 1530. This edition, composed of five parts which were issued separately, inaugurated a successful series of Latin classics printed in this manner, which continued until Estienne's departure from Paris in 1550. The works of the Scriptores rei rusticae ("writers on agriculture") - the classical Latin authors Cato, Varro, Columella, and Palladius - form the most important European compendium on agriculture surviving from antiquity. They were first combined in the editio princeps edited by Georgius Merula and printed in Venice in 1472. The treatises deal with the development of vine, olive, and fruit growing, as well as farm labour and the breeding and management of animals. The two final parts in this collection contain commentaries by the Renaissance humanists Pietro Vettori and Merula, as well as Aldus Manutius's guide to the farming year.

Each part with separate title page; printer's device on title page of parts I-III and V, Roman and Italic type.

Les commentaires et notes de Georgius Alexandrinus (Enarrationes vocum priscarum).3. Les explications de Petrus Victorius (Explicationes suarum in Catonem, Varronem). Imprimé une première fois en 1472, le Libri de re rustica qui connut plusieurs éditions au XVIe siècle, réunissait les textes les plus fameux de l'Antiquité latine relatifs à l'agriculture et la vie à la campagne.Très bel exemplaire en vélin ivoire d'époque précédé de trois feuillets manuscrits de commentaires latins en tête d'ouvrage d'une écriture à l'encre brune contemporaine de l'imprimé.Brunet, V, 246 ; Renouard, 55-2 ; Adams, S-817.
