Livius (Titus), Delle historie de Romani dall'edificatione della citta libri XXXV, 2 volumes, Venice: Stefano Coma, 1567, signatures *4 +-5+4 6+2 A-3Y4 3Z6 a-4x4, +4 y-2b4 2c-4r8 4s6 (4s6=blank), woodcut initials and headpieces, later English sprinkled calf, rebacked, wear to extremities, 4to (19.4 x 13.2 cm) (Qty: 2) Provenance: 1) Thomas Howard 14th earl of Arundel (1585-1646), art collector and politician (ownership inscription 'T. Arundell' to title-pages). 2) Royal Society, London (early ink-stamps to title-pages), probably from the bequest of Henry Howard 6th earl of Norfolk (1628-1684), who was persuaded to donate his 'magnificent library' (ODNB) by John Evelyn. 3) '1873 sold by the Society to B. Quaritch who resold' (pencilled note to front free endpaper'. 4) Thomas Alfred Walker (1862-1935), historian of Peterhouse, Cambridge (bookplate). 5) Professor Cecil H. Clough (1930-2017), Reader in Medieval History, University of Liverpool. 'Arundel's role as a bibliophile and the range of his scholarly interests are hard to appreciate today because his library has been dispersed—most of the manuscripts are in the British Library, while the books have been scattered among public and private collections, where many now lie untraced—but it is clear that he possessed one of the greatest libraries in the British Isles, probably totalling over 3000 volumes' (ODNB). Vernacular Italian edition of Livy's Ab Urbe Condita, not in Adams or STC Italian.
