| Note 1 | Reprint of the 1577 in 8⁰ edition, with only smaller changes: a new dedicatory by Mignaut to three Paris magistrates, dated Etampes, 1 April 1580, replaces the older one to the Abbot of St. Benigne; some laudatory poems have been replaced by others; criticisms by Scaliger and Lilius Gyraldus on Alciatus have been added; the short introduction to the 'Graecorum epigrammatum…explicatio' has been dropped. The introduction by Mignaut ('…lectori studioso et candido'), dated Paris, 1580, is, however, in fact, the literal reproduction of the 1577-introduction. |
| Note 2 | According to the colophon the printing was completed by the end of 1580. |
| Note 3 | Listed in M 164, folio 10 verso (Idem [Emblemata Alciati, in 8⁰, cum commentario Minois] 1581, f[euilles] 46, [price:] stuivers 12) and M 321 folio 1 verso (sub 1580). Not in M 296. |
