[Laws on Duel] Alciati, De certamine, 1543

Item Details

Description

FIRST EDITION OF ALCIATI'S TREATISE ON DUEL

Alciati, Andrea. Andreae Alciati de singulari certamine liber. Eiusdem Consilium in materia duelli, exceptum ex libro quinto responsorum.Lugduni: excudebant Ioannes & Franciscus Frellonii, fratres, 1543.

8vo, 18th century stiff vellum with gilt title at spine, blue edges, pp. [8], 107, [3].
Frellon's woodcut device at title-page, several refined woodcut head-letters.

First edition, printed in Lyon, of Alciati's treatise on duel and its rules.

The printer shared this edition with another colleague and, indeed, there are copies printed by Antoine Vincent in this same year.

Andrea Alciati was one of the most famous Italian jurist in the second half of the 16th century. He is regarded as the founder of the French school of legal humanists. He displayed great literary skill in his exposition of the laws, and was one of the first to interpret the civil law by the history, languages and literature of antiquity, and to substitute original research for the servile interpretations of the glossators. He published many legal works, (and a very celebrated book of emblems, which attained enormous popularity in continental Europe and Great Britain).

References: OCLC 420715617.

Condition

A neat repair in the lower blank margin of title-page; otherwise, a good copy.
