AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rare edition of this scholarly and meticulous collection of Ovid's complete works, the major Latin poet of antiquity.

This first volume gathers the foundational texts of its corpus, notably the Metamorphoses, the Amores, and the Heroides, presented in elegant typography and accompanied by a critical apparatus intended for the scholars of the 17th century.

The Blaviana edition is distinguished by its philological approach: it homogenizes manuscript variants, proposes corrections, and sometimes includes marginal annotations, all while respecting the humanist tradition of Dutch printing.

Ovid - P. Ovidii Nasonis complete works - 1683 - Volume I - Blaviana -
832 Pages.

Good condition of the binding, work in its full mottled leather from the period, signs of use, a tear on the lower headband, slightly rubbed corners, marbled edges, ornately ribbed spine, gilded titling and volume numbers.

Good interior condition, some scattered foxing, work enriched with a engraved frontispiece and a superb vignette on the title page.
