Evidence for Inclusion in Wythe's Library
Listed in the Jefferson Inventory of Wythe's Library as Quinctilianus de instutitione Oratoriâ. 4to. and given by Thomas Jefferson to his grandson Thomas Jefferson Randolph. The precise edition owned by Wythe is unknown. George Wythe's Library[1] on LibraryThing suggests the 1693 edition published at Oxford, noting "This is the only quarto edition in ESTC." The Brown Bibliography[2] lists the London edition published in 1714 based on a copy at the University of Virginia which reported bears the inscription "Thomas J. Randolph, July 18th, 1826." The signature is no longer visible as the book has been rebound, however, Brown notes the size as quarto. The English Short Title Catalog describes the 1714 edition as an octavo. Nevertheless, the Wolf Law Library followed Brown's suggestion and purchased the London edition.
