Balog György (ford.): A’ Marcus Tullius Ciceronak. Négy könyvei mellyek Sturmius Jakab által öszve szedegettettnek. Most pedig á tánulo iffjaknak kedvekért, Magyar nyelvre fordéttatnak ~ által.
Lőtsén, 1694. (Brewer Sámuel ny.) (160)p.
Johannes Sturm’s school edition of Cicero was first published in 1539. It was published several times in Hungary, and Balog presumably used one of these editions. From 1682, he was a teacher in Sopron, where he translated several ancient classics into Hungarian for his students. He translated the original text word for word, following the Latin structure precisely, even if it meant that the Hungarian was unnatural.
Contemporary half vellum.
RMK I 1458.
starting price: 200 000
