AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Estimated to be a very rare edition in Vulgar language of this selection of works by Cicero, which reprints the first four with Vendramin's 1528 translation and features Antonio Brucioli's (1487-1566) new translation of the 'Dream of Scipio'.

Works of Marcus Tullius Cicero translated into the vernacular language, newly printed and corrected. On duties. On friendship. On old age. The paradoxes. The dream of Scipio, Venice, Giovanni Dalla Chiesa Pavese, 1544.

PP.: 165, (VI). COMPLETE (cards numbered only on the front side).

Sample with cards in generally good condition, with humidity damage. Missing at the outer lower edge of the last card, with no loss of text.

18th-century binding in full parchment with gold title on the spine, well preserved. The front white endpaper is missing.
