SOPHOCLES (ca 496-406 B.C.). Tragoediae Septem. Una cum omnibus Graecis scholiis, in Greek. Commentary by Joachim Camerarius (1500-1574). [Geneva]: Henri Estienne, 1568.
Two parts in one volume, 4to (243 x 144 mm). Estienne's woodcut device on title-page (Renouard 10); with ggg4 blank (lacking final blank). Greek type, Camerarius' commentaries mostly in Roman. Contemporary blind-panelled calf, edges stained red (rebacked). Provenance: Early signature on title-page (rubbed out); Reverend William Bruce (1757-1841), Irish Presbyterian minister (bookplate, Edinburgh).
FIRST ESTIENNE EDITION, "a very excellent and accurate edition, and highly creditable to the editorial talents of [Henri Estienne]; it is formed on the basis of that of Turnebus, on each page of which we have the ancient Scholia of the Roman edition of 1518, and those of Turnebus, corrected by the editor...there is not an Edition in which I read Sophocles with so much pleasure" (Dibdin). The Greek text is followed by the commentary of Joachim Camerarius, and his Latin versions of "Ajax" and "Elektra." Adams S-1340; Brunet I:356; Renouard I:102; Schreiber, Estiennes 171.
