$a This was the first printed edition of the collected plays of Euripides in Greek. The title page of Volume I describes the publication as containing seventeen tragedies, without indicating that this is the first volume only; but a note at the end of this volume makes clear that this is the 'first volume', in which there are only ten plays (it lists the same first ten as appear on the title page, as far as 'Iphigenia in Tauris'). In addition to the seventeen plays listed on the title page of Volume I (sixteen tragedies and the satyric play 'Cyclops'), this edition contains also in Volume II the 'Hercules furens', printed at the end. This edition does not contain Euripides's 'Electra' (which would be first printed in 1545, by Blado). The text of each of the ten plays in Volume I is preceded by a divisional title, summary and list of 'dramatis personae'. The title page speaks also of 'exegeses' or 'commentaria', but these are not included - unless these terms refer to the short 'hypotheses' or summaries preceding each play. Although the title page is in ancient Greek and Latin, the plays themselves are printed in ancient Greek only. In format this publication is an example of the 'libellus portatilis' or 'enchiridion' - a new type of small book, of elongated shape, that would sit comfortably in the hand; which Manuzio began to produce in 1501. |
| 561 | # | # | $a The front pastedown carries an armorial bookplate of late-18th-century style, including the motto 'Dulces Ante Omnia Musæ'. The title page is inscribed in ink, 'Ex libris H minorum Conventus Lamonica'; and in a different hand, 'Kidd' (perhaps the classical scholar Thomas Kidd [1770-1850]?). |

$a Imperfect: lacks Volume II. In Vol. I. all pages have been annotated at the foot with the line-numbers of the dramas. There are very occasional, small marginal annotations elsewhere. |
