Aristotle & Domestic economy.- Lefèvre d'Étaples (Jacques) In Politica Aristotelis introductio [and] Xenophon. Economicus, collation: a b8, Roman type, initial spaces with guide-letters, small repair to final lower blank corner, some mostly marginal staining, occasional spotting, lightly browned, antique style limp vellum, folio (286 x 212mm.), [Paris], Henri Estienne, 1508.
⁂ Rare first edition of Lefèvre's pioneering introduction to Aristotle's Politics, along with his edition of Xenophon's Economics, translated by Raffaele Maffei. The latter is a dialogue between Socrates and Isomachus on the management of the house and farm, with 'a pleasant and quaint picture of the Greek wife and her household duties' (Schreiber 24, second edition of 1516).
