6 works in one volume. 8° (162 x 106mm). First and third work printed in Garamond's grecs du roi type, which, as Royal Printer, Morel took over from the Estiennes. Ornamental headpieces and initials, some printer's devices. Contemporary limp vellum, French vellum MS fragment as spine liner (ties missing). Provenance: contemporary annotations on flyleaves.
A fine, contemporary Sammelband containing the SECOND EDITION of the poems then believed to be the work of Anacreon, the ancient Greek poet. The editio princeps had been printed just 2 years earlier by Morel for Henri Estienne, and it 'virtually caused a poetic revolution, not only in France, but also in Italy and Germany -- where this influenece culminated in the 18th century with the Anacreontic Poets' (Schreiber Estiennes, 139). The present edition is the first publication of Robert Estienne II. Adams A-1003, T-715, F-84 (wrongly collated A-D4), P-976; Brunet I, 250 (Anacreon).
