Part 2

Dr. van der Linde's work is so complete that, for the most part, it has been thought sufficient to give his name, even when older authorities have been consulted.

COLONNA.

(See _ante_, p. xxviii.)

aegidius Roma.n.u.s de regimine principum L. III. s. l. 1473. Folio.

This Ebert and Graesse conjecture to have been printed by G. Zainer.

They describe it as the first edition of a work frequently reprinted, and say that the last edition appeared at Lugd. Batav. in 1643, and had on the t.i.tle-page the name of St. Thomas Aquinas as author. Hain mentions editions at Rome--Stephanum Plannck, 1482, folio; Venetiis, 1498.

(_French translation._)

Miroir exemplaire, selon la compilation du Gilles de Rome du regime et gouvernement des rois etc. (by Henri de Gauchy or de Gauchay) et avec est compris le secret de Aristote appelle le secret des secrets, et les noms des rois de France com bien de temps ils out regne. Paris, 1517. Folio.

(_Graesse._)

This was printed by Guillaum Eustace: "On les v=et au palais au Tiers pillier Et a la me neufue nostre dame a lenseigne de Lagnus dei"

(_Brunef_). Ebert mentions a French translation as having been printed at Paris, in 1497; but Brunet, in the article on Aristotle, gives a somewhat minute account of the book, to show that it is not that of Colonna.

(_Spanish translation._)

(_Hain, Brunet, Graeffe_.)

Ebert notes that there was an edition under the name of Th. Aquino at Madrid, 1625, 4to.

There is neither date, place, nor printer's name given; but it is considered to have been the work of Nic. Ketelaer and Ger. de Leempt, at Utrecht (Ultrajectus), about 1473.
