Overview

After the editio princeps of the Latin text in 1470, more Latin editions of Josephus' Works were published in the first half of the 16th century, by Robert Goullet (Paris, 1513-14) and Desiderius Erasmus (Basel, 1537). In 1544 Arnoldus Arlenius produced the editio princeps of the Greek text, based on a manuscript he found in the library of the Spanish diplomat Diego Hurtado Mendoza. The volume was published by Hieronymus Froben in Basel, and for many years was the basis of all existing translations from the Greek.
