Quintilian's pedagogical treatise on classical rhetoric covers not only the training of an orator but also a general educational theory, ancient literary criticism and the technicalities of rhetoric. Nearly forgotten during the Middle Ages, the Institutiones oratoriae was rediscovered during the Renaissance and exerted a strong influence on Renaissance and later prose style and literary criticism. - Line-to-line reprint of Hain 13652. With the extensive commentary by Raphael Regius (d. 1520), an Italian humanist from Volterra who resided at Padua. - GW M3682110; Hain-C. 13652; Proctor 5045; Polain 4679; Goff Q-29; BMC V, 441; Ebert 18423.€ 1800
