FACCIOLATI, Jacapo. Totius Latinitatis Lexicon Consilio et Cura. Padua: John Manfrè, 1771. 4 vols., folio (373 x 250mm.) Title in red and black, engraved initials and headpieces. (Toning, occasional wave and creasing to the text-block, browning.) Mid-19th century green half morocco over green buckram-covered boards, gilt lettering to spines (rubbing to all extremities, tear to cloth of lower cover of volume 4, some fading). Note: a significant work of scholarship in which Facciolati's pupil, Egido Forcellini, played a significant part. It was said that if Latin were to die as a language then it could be reconstituted from these four volumes (4).
