Bound with: Ek ToN / Aristotelous Kai Theophrastou. Aristotelis et Theophrasti scripta quaedam, quae vel nunquam antea, vel minus emendate quam nunc, edita fuerunt. Geneva, Henri Estienne 1557. First Edition.
Poesis Philosophica contains the first appearance in print of almost all of the Presocratic philosophers, from Plato through Holderlin, Nietzsche, Heidegger and Derrida. These includes the editiones principes of Parmenides, Heraclitus, Cleanthes, Empedocles, Xenophanes, Timon Syllagraphus, and Epicharmes. It also contains the Orphic Hymns and works by Democritus. It is of major importance to the history of Western thought.
Scripta Quaedam contains editiones principes of works by Theophrastus and Aristotle in Greek, as well as the complete text of the immortal Characters of Theophrastus, one of the most influential literary texts in Western history. These two are of the rarest and most desirable works produced by the Estienne Press, the greatest scholar-printers. The Estiennes produced the most significant Latin and Greek Bibles after the principes, as well as editions of Plato, Homer, Plutarch, Cicero and Herodotus that continue, in many respects, to be the standard 450 years later. Above this achievement, the Estiennes produced a series of editiones principes in Greek and Latin that can be rivalled only by the Aldine Press.

Complete except for 2 blank leaves in the Poiesis.

Hardcover. Fine. 4to. Bound in 20th-century 1/4-vellum over marbled boards. Strasbourg: Matthias Schürer, July 1510. Second Strasbourg edition of Erasmus heavily annotated collection of Greek and Latin proverbs. Printed in Roman and Greek types. This is the original version, containing 818 adages, which is considerably shorter than the later expanded versions published under the title Adagiorum chiliades. (Adams E-420; Bezzel, Erasmusdrucke, 50; Van der Haeghen, Bibliotheca Erasmiana, p.25-6; Bibl. Belgica II, 276: no. E.61; Muller, Strasbourg II, p. 179, no. 45.) The Adagia could only have been possible in the new world of European education, in which careful attention to a broader range of classical texts produced a much fuller picture of the literature of antiquity. Its impact has been long lasting. Such popular expressions such as one step at a time, between a rock and a hard place, break the ice, an iron in the fire, looking a gift horse in the mouth, and many other sayings can trace their…
