Règles de la traduction; ou, Moyens pour apprendre à traduire de latin en françois [microforme]
A seventeenth-century French grammar of translation from Latin, written by Gaspard de Tende, sieur de Lestang, and published in 1660 by D. Foucault, presumably for students learning to render Latin into French. The four pictures are printed headpieces and a tailpiece: a heraldic cartouche with fleurs-de-lis and a crown, a band of birds and foliage, a basket of flowers, and a preface heading with the same cartouche. Their dense black woodcut ornament, with scrolls, leaves and flowers, offers a designer strong bold border and divider motifs.
