In Firenze, Nella Stamperia di Cosimo Giunti, 1603. FIRST EDITION of this translation. Small 4to, 205 x 148 mms., pp. [viiii], 280, contemporary vellum, letter in ink on spine, paste-down end-papers with notes in an 18th century hand; front hinge cracked, exposing spine, binding a little soiled. The orator Demetrius of Phaleron (c. 350 B. C. - c. 280 B. C.) was one of the most prolific authors of antiquity, noted in particular for his historical works and those on rhetoric. De Elocutione was first published in 1588, edited by A. P. Manutius. The translator here is Pier Segni, with numerous annotations to the text. The attribution of this work on style to Demetrius has been disputed and is sometimes attributed to an unknown writer in the second century A. D. Most libraries, however, catalogue the work under Demetrius' name.
