A Volume of interesting Letters, some in Latin, but chiefly in Italian, transcribed, in a modern hand, from the originals in the Vatican library. The first is an epistle from Paulus Manutius to the celebrated Antonio Agostino, Bishop of Alifa and afterwards Archbishop of Tarragona, in which he declines printing an edition of Æschylus. Next follow a considerable number from Antonio Agostino to Fulvio Orsino, Onufrio Panvini, Latino Latini and Ottavio Pantagathi on various matters relating to antiquities, but for the most part on the medals of Greek cities and Roman families. At fo. 170 is a letter from Johannes Genesius Sepulveda to Paulus Manutius on the republication of his Latin translation of Aristotle's Republick, which had been incorrectly printed by Vascosan at Paris, 1548. The rest of the volume contains letters from Arias Montano to Cardinal Sirleto and Hercules Ciafonus. Num. 1162-1167.
