C. IULLI CAESARIS COMMENTARII
Ab Aldo Manutio, Paulli F. Aldi N. emendati et scholiis illustrati
By Caius Julius Caesar / Aldo Manuzio
Aldus Pius Manutius (1449/1452 – 6 February 1515) was an Italian printer and humanist who founded the Aldine Press. Manutius devoted the later part of his life to publishing and disseminating rare texts. His interest in and preservation of Greek manuscripts mark him as an innovative publisher of his age dedicated to the editions he produced. Aldus Manutius introduced the small portable book format with his enchiridia, which revolutionized personal reading and are the predecessor of the modern paperback book. He also helped to standardize use of punctuation including the comma and the semicolon.
