Full text: Vitruvius: The architecture of Marcus Vitruvius Pollio in ten books

XVI 
edition is more correct than the preceding one of 
Sulpitius ; in other respects it is very like it. It is 
quite as scarce as the editio princeps. 
-This volume begins,—“ Hoc in Volumine continentur: 
1497. 
Cleonidæ Harmonicum Introductorium interprete 
Georgio Valla Placentino. L. Vitruvii Pollionis de 
Architectura Libri Decem. Sexti Julii Frontini de 
Aquæductibus Liber unus. Angeli Politiani Opus- 
culum: quod Panepistemon inscribitur. Angeli Poli¬ 
tiani in priora Analytica prælectio, cui titulus est 
Lamia. —At the end of the Vitruvius,—“ Impressum 
Venetiis, per Simonem Papiensem dictum Bivilaquam: 
Anno M.CCCC.LXXXXVII. die tertio Augusti."—fol. 
With a few slight variations in the text, this is little 
more than a reprint of the preceding Florence 
Edition, as regards Vitruvius. The Cleonidas is an 
addition to it. The name of the Editor does not 
appear; he has divided the chapters of the first book 
differently from those of the two former editions. 
This book, though not common, does not fetch a large 
price. 
-“ M. Vitruvius per locundum solito castigatior fac- 
1511.

possit."—At the end,—" Impressum Venetiis ac 
magis quam unquam aliquo alio tempore emendatum: 
sumptu miraque diligentia Ioannis de Tridino alias 
Tacuino. Anno Domini M.D.XI. die XXII. Maii. Reg 
nante inclito Duce Leonardo Lauredano."—fol.—With 
many wood blocks. This was the first edition illus 
trated with Figures. Jocundus altered the text of 
the two former editions in many places. Polenus 
thinks he carried his emendations further than he 
was justified in doing ; but he gives the preference to 
this over the former editions. 
— Vitruvius iterum et Frontinus a locundo revisi re- 
1513. 
purgatique quantum ex collatione licuit."—At the 
end:—" Hoc opus præcipua diligentia castigatum, et 
cura summa excusum est Florentiæe sumptibus Phi¬ 
lippi de Giunta Florentini, anno Domini M.D. XIII.

edition are the same as the preceding, but consider¬
