HOMER. Ιλιάς, συν τοις σχολίοις. Ilias ad veteris codicis veneti fidem recensita. Venice, Coleti brothers, 1788. Large folio, stiff vellum, ornate smooth spine, daffodil edges (Binding of the period). A very fine and important edition of the Iliad published by the Hellenist J.-B.-G. d'Ansse de Villoison (1750-1805). Printed in Greek on two columns, it is commended both for the correctness of the text, based on a 10th-century manuscript preserved in the Marcienne in Venice, and for its editor's preface and scolies, drawn from Aristarchus, Didymus, Herodian and Nicanor. Ex-libris stamp of Franz Seignac-Beck, priest, at the foot of the title. Endpapers renewed, minor worm damage in lower margin of first few leaves, spine dusted.
