TERENTIUS AFER, Publius (185-159 B.C.). Comoediae. - Directorio vocabulorum. Gloss and commentary by Aelius Donatus, Guido Juvenalis, and Jodocus Badius Ascensius. - Vita Terentii. Strassburg: Johann (Reinhard) Grüninger, 1 November 1496.
Super-chancery 2° (281 x 204mm). Collation: a6 b-c8 d-z6 A-E6 F8 (a1r title with full-page woodcut, a1v blank, a2r Directorio vocabulorum, a5v epitaph of Terence, a6r Vita, excerpted from Petrarca, a6v full-page woodcut, b1r text, F7v colophon, F8 blank). 178 leaves (of 180; i2.5 in contemporary manuscript giving the Terence text, apparently cancelling the printed leaves whose stubs are visible). Text with commentary surround, 73 lines of commentary and headline. Type: 17:145G (title, headlines, etc.), 22:89R (title, text), 23:64bR (commentary), 4:48R (point letters). 165 WOODCUTS FULLY COLOURED BY AN EARLY HAND, including 8 full-page scenes, large woodcut ornamental initial opening the Life, initial spaces with guide-letter filled with red initial to v5, red capital strokes, first quire unrubricated. (Small wormholes, short repaired tears just into image in p4, small marginal tears in 2 leaves.) 19th-century German paste-paper boards (slightly scuffed). Provenance: contemporary annotations in the first quires -- Stuttgart, Württembergische Landesbibliothek duplicate (deaccession note dated 26 June 1966).
A COLOURED COPY OF THE SECOND ILLUSTRATED AND FIRST GRüNINGER EDITION. It is illustrated with a remarkable series of woodcuts which begins with a full-page scene of a theatre, showing the actors on stage and spectators on two levels. The series is dependant on that of Trechsel's Lyons edition of 1493, but Grüninger's marks a stylistic shift in German book illustration, particularly in representing tone and dimensionality. New to this edition are the full-page woodcuts opening each play which depict the dramatis personae set within a land- or cityscape. The woodcut artist apparently was familiar with the unfinished Terence-series by Dürer, made about 1491-2 (Winkler, Narrenschiff p.67). Grüninger re-used his series in a 1499 edition, and it was copied by Vérard for his edition of about 1500. (Cf. M. Chévre, 'Imitations et Originalité quelques Illustrations de Terence du XVème au XVIème Siècle,' Gutenberg-Jahrbuch, 1961, pp. 207-214.)
