(Leipzig), Gotthard Vögelin for Henning Grosse, 1602. VD17 3:008477N. ADB II, 508. – First edition of the commented edition by the Latin poet Gregor Bersmann (1538-1611) from the Erzgebirgian Annaberg, one of two prints published in the same year with a different collation. "Bersmann was not without irritability and strenuousness and thereby attracted much enmities, but the undisturbed friendship of all his teachers and teachers. widespread intercourse with the best of his time speaks in his favor. He mainly dealt with the Latin poets, for the production of the text completely against the custom of his time also used manuscripts (freely little worthful) and added on the margins of the editions scholia i.e. short notes from the earlier works and his own scholarship. Thus first appeared in 1581 Virgil, in 1582 in three volumes of Ovid, all poems and finally in 1602 Horaz (extended in 1616)" (ADB). – Paper-relatedly somewhat tanned, some corner bends, title and first text sheet half solved.
