Praelectiones Marciae, sive Commentaria in Thucydidis historiam, seu narrationem de Peste Atheniensium.

Utinens, Fabius Paulinus · 1603 · Venise, Juntes. · 6 pictures

A 1603 Latin commentary on Thucydides' account of the Athenian plague, printed in Venice by the Junta press and attributed to Fabius Paulinus of Udine, a scholarly text for classical readers and medical historians. The pictures are title-page details in black letter and roman capitals, with ornamental cartouches, strapwork borders and a central shield-like emblem, showing how a dense early modern typographic frame can organise a page.
