Joseph Scaliger: I: Textual Criticism and Exegesis Hardback
by Anthony (Professor of History, Professor of History, Princeton University) Grafton
Part of the Oxford-Warburg Studies series
Hardback
Description
This volume is the first half of an intellectual biography of Joseph Scaliger (1540-1609), the greatest classical scholar of his time.
Anthony Grafton describes Scaliger's early work as an editor of and commentator on classical texts, setting this into the wider context of classical scholarship in the Renaissance.
At the same time he interprets the major changes that Scaliger's work underwent, as responses to pressures exerted by his social situation and emotional life.
