Abstract

The Gennadius Library recently acquired from the Vergos Auctions another Venetian rare first edition of the 17th century. The Thesauros Tetraglossos (Θησαυρός τῆς ἐγκυκλοπαιδικῆς βάσεως τετράγλωσσος) a work by the Cretan scholar Gerasimos Vlachos, was first printed in Venice in 1659 by Giovanni Pietro Pinelli: «Παρὰ Ἰωάννῃ Πέτρῳ τῷ Πινέλλῳ Δουκικῶ τυπογράφῳ ἐπιμελείᾳ καὶ διορθώσει Ἀρσενίου Ἱερομονάχου Καλούδη τοῦ Κρητός». The quadrilingual dictionary is an important addition to the 17th century Greek publications of the Gennadeion.
