Please see photos and ask questions, if any, before purchasing. Elzevir is the name of a family of Dutch booksellers, publishers, and printers of the 17th and early 18th centuries. The duodecimo series of "Elzevirs" became very famous and very desirable among bibliophiles (like ourselves), who sought to obtain the tallest and freshest copies of these books. Although it appears the family was involved with the book trade as early as the 16th century, it is only known for its work in some detail beginning with Lodewijk Elzevir. The fame of the Elzevir editions rests chiefly on the works issued by the firm of Bonaventura and Abraham Elzevir. Their Greek and Hebrew impressions are considered inferior to those of the Aldines and the Estiennes, but their small editions in 12mo, 16mo, and 24mo, for their elegance of design, neatness, clearness, regularity of type, and beauty of paper, cannot be surpassed. This edition was published by Daniel (1626-1680) & Louis (1604-1670) Elzevir. Arnoldus Montanus (c. 1625 1683) was a Dutch teacher and author who published books on theology, history, and geography of both the Netherlands and faraway countries. Montanus, a Latinized form of van den Berg or van Bergen, was born in Amsterdam and studied theology at Leiden University. He became a minister in Schellingwoude in 1653 and in Schoonhoven, where he also became headmaster of the Latin School, in 1667. His most famous book is De Nieuwe en Onbekende Weereld. Joseph Justus Scaliger (1540 1609) was a Franco-Italian Calvinist religious leader and scholar, known for expanding the notion of classical history from Greek and Ancient Roman history to include Persian, Babylonian, Jewish and Ancient Egyptian history. He spent the last sixteen years of his life in the Netherlands. Stamped Coat of Arms on front and back, lion in middle of shield. RAREE1661FOPA - 03/18 FORN-SHELF-0473-BB-2412-HKREV328.…
