The text of Polybius (Book VI of his History) has been translated into Latin by Janus Lascaris (1445-1535). military dictionary, 'Libellus De Modesti vocabulis rei militaris' was developed by Pomponius Laetus (1425-1497, or Leto) and his students from the work of Vegetius. Full Velin flexible flap time. Traces of laces. As with the black plume. Beautiful copy. Error bookbinder: 49-64 were placed after page 32, so that after page 48 is therefore page 65 Vegetius was a Roman military writer living in the second half of the fourth century and beyond the fact that he was an official of the empire, we know little about his life. We stayed by this author a treaty in which the first five parts deals with recruits and recruitment, the second of the organization of the Legion and the ancient Roman armies, the third military field exercises, the fourth of attack and defense of fortresses, the fifth for its concerns naval tactics. Steewech commentator of this edition, was a professor at Pont A Mousson. Bookplate engraved with the arms of Jean-Baptiste Peyer, Lord of Fontenelle. --- Please note that the translation in english is done automatically, we apologize if the formulas are inaccurate.
