Lot 41 | DESCARTES, Rene (1596-1650) - Principia Philosophiae. Editio quarta. LEGATO CON: - Specimina philosophiae seu Dissertatio de methodo. Amsterdam: s.e., 1664. 
DESCARTES, Rene (1596-1650) - Principia Philosophiae. Editio quarta. [LEGATO CON:] - Specimina philosophiae seu Dissertatio de methodo. Amsterdam: [s.e.], 1664.

Perhaps the counterfeit edition of the same work published by Elzevir in that same year.

2 parts in one volume, 4to (216 x 165mm). Engraved frontispiece signed by C. Hife, portrait of the author, numerous woodcut illustrations in text (frontispiece reinforced in the upper margin, some browning and spotting). 19th-century boards backed in vellum, spine decorated in gilt and with leather labels (minimal wear to extremities). These works are sometimes bound with other texts and the collation of the preliminaries of this edition differs slightly from that reported in SBN ending with 5 * 1 in the first part and with 2* 3 in the second.
