History, from the original Classic Greek into Modern Greek, by eminent Greek scholar and statesman Eleutherios Venizelos, seven times Prime Minister of Greece, who was instrumental in the formation of the modern Greek State. Painstakingly written over a period of seven years, Venizelos’ translation is noted, among other aspects, for his use of katharevousa, a modern Greek style closer to classic Greek than the demotic vernacular, in order to correct later accretions and bring the language closer to that of Thucydides’ original. Copious commentary and analysis by Venizelos, plus substantive prefaces by Stefanos I. Stephanou, Dimitrios Kaklamanos, Andreas Mikalopotaos and Konstantin D. Stergiopoulos.

Venetiis: Ex typographia Remondini, 1751. Hardcover. See Description. 12mo. pp. 143, [1]. Title page is printed in red and black. Bound in modern quarter brown cloth with brown patterned paper boards. The edges of the leaves are untrimmed and ragged. The interior displays some marginal soiling and wear with occasional chipping and corner creasing. A tear on the lower part of page 19 is professionally and neatly sealed. The upper corner to the final leaf of the index is chipped/torn perhaps affecting a few numbers or letters. The imprint statement on the title page contains some rubbing which obstructs two letters in the word "typographia." A few brief instances of marginalia are written in a miniscule old hand. The corner of the head cap is neatly patched. Generally this is a well read copy. Cornelius Nepos (c. 99-24 b.c.e) was a Roman writer and historian. His surviving work Vitae execllentium imperatorum or Lives of outstanding commanders consists of a collection of short biographies of…
