Martianus Capella is a book written by Franciscus Eyssenhardt in 1866. The book is a critical edition of the Latin work by Martianus Capella, a fifth-century North African writer. The work is divided into nine books, each of which deals with a different subject. The first two books deal with grammar and rhetoric, the next five with the liberal arts (arithmetic, geometry, music, astronomy, and dialectic), and the final two with theology and the art of love. Martianus Capella's work was highly influential in the Middle Ages, and this edition provides a valuable resource for scholars and students of medieval literature and philosophy. Eyssenhardt's edition includes extensive notes and commentary, as well as a detailed introduction that provides background information on Martianus Capella and his work. Overall, Martianus Capella is an important work of classical scholarship and a key text in the history of Western thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
