Description: INDICES RERUM ET VERBORUM PHILOLOGICO-CRITICI IN OPERA CICERONIANA SIVE CLAVIS? GRAECA CICERONIS ACCEDUNT [...]. Halae, 1777 8vo: 5 1/4 by 8 1/4" XVI-910 pp. (some amount of foxing, toning, missing front endpaper, no ties). An thorough index of German scholar Ernesti's writings on Cicero (1707-1781). Extremely rare gold-tooled Culemborg prize binding featuring gilt arms on both covers. Latin text cited in Spoelder (Culemborg). Roman statesman, orator, lawyer, and philosopher Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 BC) held the office of consul in 63 BC.
