Aldi Pii Manutii Institutionu' grammaticaru' libri quatuor, by Aldus Manutius. Venice: Victor a Rabanis, & Socii, 1540 (printing details in the colophon). Latin, Hebrew, and Greek.

A Latin grammar book with introduction to Hebrew and Greek, by Aldus Manutius (Manuzio; 1449-1515), a scholar and humanist, one of the greatest Italian printers, and the formulator of modern rules for the use of the comma and period. Hebrew letters, vocalized; the title page and the first pages are printed in red and black. Decorative border on the title page and illustrated initial words.

Rare edition. Apparently, this edition was printed with an additional six unnumbered pages at the end, containing a work by Erasmus of Rotterdam, which was included in the Catholic Church's list of prohibited books shortly after its printing. In the present copy, Erasmus's work was removed from the end of the book, and his name was "censored" from the title page (a piece cut out in the center of the title page, with paper restoration and an old ink stamp, where the reference to Erasmus's work originally appeared – Addito in fine De octo partium orationis constructione libello Erasmo Roterodamo auctore).

This edition does not appear in the National Library of Israel catalogue nor in OCLC, and to the best of our knowledge, only a few copies have survived. A scanned copy from the Biblioteca Universitaria Alessandrina collection in Rome appears on Google Books. This copy is also censored: Erasmus's work was removed, and his name has been excised from the title page, but part of the subtitle remains. A complete record of the edition, with the full title and original page count, appears in the online database Edit16 (No. 38025).

[10], 226, [40] (originally 46) leaves. 15 cm. Good-fair condition. Stains and minor blemishes. Several inscriptions (old). Worming and open tears in the margins of some leaves, with paper restorations. Piece cut out in the center of the title page, restored with paper (old, bearing a stamp). Bookplate. Fine parchment binding, with inscription on the spine.
