Aristophanis comicorum prinicipis Comoediae vndecim, è graeco in latinum, ad verbu[m], translatae
A 1542 Venetian edition of eleven comedies by Aristophanes, translated from Greek into Latin word for word by Andreas Divus, printed for a scholarly readership of Latin-reading students and humanists. Its pages carry Latin text in dense columns, each opening with a large decorative woodcut initial letter set in a square frame of foliage or interlace, with small speaker labels in the margin such as Dion., Xan. and Ser. beside the dialogue lines.
