Contemp. blind-stamped pigskin (rep.). From the collection of Hendrik D. L. Vervliet. Basel, Andreas Cratander, 1529. (Bound with:) SALLUSTIUS.- GLAREANUS (i.e. Heinrich LORITI). In C. Crispi Sallustii historici clarissimi, quae adhuc extant historiarum fragmenta annotationes. With woodcut printer's device on last leaf verso and woodcut initials. Printed in Italics. 95 pp. Basel, Andreas Cratander, 1538. Cratander editions of the works of the historian Sallustius (86 B.C. - c. 34 B.C.). The "Coniuratio Catilinae" deals with the conspiracy of Catiline, while the "Bellum Iugurthinum" concerns the succession in Numidia. The attribution of the "Declamatio contra Catilinam" to Marcus Porcius Latro (fl. late 1st cent. B.C.) is most probably erroneous.
