How many editions were there?
[edit]I was trying to check whether I had guessed a letter correctly and found a Googlebooks scan: volume 4 page 90. (Their book description [1])
Just comparing a very little bit, that edition has 'majus' where vol 4 page 172 has apparently 'malus', e.g.
- minora etiam ad aliquid malus agendum accenduntur.
Even more striking, where we have
- Humano generi ergo connatus videtur esse gloriæ appetitus, ...
the other edition has
- Humano ergò generi connatus videtur esse gloriæ appetitus, ...
Word order changed and the difference in accented 'o'!
How variable *are* these editions? Shenme (talk) 01:30, 10 November 2018 (UTC)
