Corderii colloquia. Lat. Fr. 2 cop. 12 mo.
1815 Catalogue, page 164, no. 19, Corderii Colloquia, Lat. Fr. 12mo.
CORDIER, Mathurin.
Corderii Colloquia.
Though Jefferson’s manuscript catalogue calls for two copies it is possible that this book was not delivered to Congress. The entry in the contemporary working copy of the 1815 Library of Congress Catalogue is marked missing in ink, and is omitted from all the later catalogues. It is entered in the list of books missing from the Congressional Library made at a later date.
Mathurin Cordier, 1478-1564, French scholar, was a great friend of Robert Estienne. The first edition of his Colloquia was printed in Geneva in 1563. A number of editions in petit format were issued with a French translation. It is not possible to ascertain which edition was in Jefferson’s library.
