Comenius, Joh(annes) Amos: Janua lingvae latinae reserata aurea, Sive, seminarium Linguae Latinae et Scientiarium omnium... in Hungaricam Linguam translata, Per Stephanum Benjamin Szilagyi.
Debreczini, 1729. Per Paulum Viski. (20)+183+(6)p. Last 4 leaves missing.
This is the second edition of the work in Debrecen (first published here in 1700). Its outstanding value is attributed to its rich vocabulary and broad presentation of the world's phenomena. It provied many words and terms in Hungarian, using colloquial and vernacular versions as well. The appearance of medical words represents a significant step forward in the development of medical terminology.
Restored, contemporary leather. 8 leaves (title page and the following 7) restored.
