Cartier 616. - BM STC, French Books p.212. - Adams G.1545. - Brun p. 206. - Alden/Landis A 581/1. - Not in Sabin, Palau and other Americana catalogues. - Only edition of this important work on funeral rites of the ancient Roman and Greeks, but also of the the natives of the New World, including Peru, Mexico, Florida, and Canada. Unnoticed by Sabin and other Americana catalogues. Typographically interesting because of de Tournes use of the large and attractive civilité type of Robert Granjon, furthermore because of its first translation in any language of Petronius on pp. 242-246, a French translation of the famous story of the "Matron of Ephesus" from the "Satyricon" (unknown to Schmeling/Stuckey). - Here and there some waterstaining, front endpaper with entry by old hand. Binding bumped, joints and extremities of spine repaired. Ex libris.
