1667 Cornelius Nepos Lives ROME Roman Lawyers Philosophy Rhetoric Hackiana

 

Cornelius Nepos was a 1^st-century BC Roman author whose works have mostly all been lost. However, his one surviving work is “Excellentium Imperatorum Vitae” which is a collection of biographical descriptions of Roman and foreign leaders. According to Roberts, this work details

“Roman kings, generals, lawyers, orators, poets, historians, and philosophers.”

This rare 1667 printing is a first edition by Hackiana and was edited and translated by Robert Keuchenius. Like many Hackiana first editions, this book features a full-page engraved title page. A fine work.
