LÍVIO (Tito)

LAS QUATORZE decadas de Tito Livio. Historiador delos Romanos: trasladadas agora nuevamente de latin en nuestra le[n]gua Castellana. La primeira: tercera y quarta enteras segun en latin se hallã: y las otras onze segu la abreviaciõ de Lucio floro. Saragoça: por industria y espe[n]sas del experto varon Geroge Coci, 1520, 24 de Maio.

2[cristus]3 [of 4], a-v8, x-z6, [et]8, [cum]6, [rum]8, A-V8, X6, 2a-2×8, [cristus]8; [3 of 4], CCCCCXXXIII, [9] ff.; 315 mm. Fac-simile title-page; fol. nn1 smaller than the other leaves; modern full calf.

One of the most impressive works of Spanish typography at the time. Profusely illustrated with wood engravings taken from the Mainz edition, printed by J. Schoeffer in 1505. Although there is no indication of the translator, the work was edited by Fr. Pedro de la Vega. One of the great points of interest of this work is its frontispiece, one of the first with four-color printing. Very rare and important.
