Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from De Rebus Gestis Alexandri Magni Libri Superstites, Vol. 1
Cuilibet Q. Curtium Rufum legenti mirum profecto videri debuit scriptorem non ultimum certe locum inter Latinos tenentem, cujus scripta in omnium ore et manu versantur, nemini esse notum. Ita tamen sese res habet qua florùerit aetate, quae fuerit Vivendi conditio, aeque incertum. Imo de nomine non satis constat nam omis sum alii volunt praenomen Quìntus, cognomen bws alii quae tamen duo, perpetuo veterum ]ibrorum con sensu confirmata, retinenda esse censeo, ut optime pro bat Franciscus Modius in notis quibus Nostrum illustra vit. Quod vero ad aetatem qua vixit, spectat, lis est ad lwo sub judice, et forte diutius erit. Hac de re in per muitas diversissimasque discedunt docti viri senten'tias. Enumerare longior mora foret varia quibus suam quis que opinionem fulsi argumenta, praetereaque id non tanti pretii est; ad hanc igitur festinabimus conjecturam, cui plus auctoritatis aut saltem plus verisimilitudinis subesse videtur.
