• Extra informatie: - This is the 2nd revised edition. De Jure belli ac Pacis was first published in 1625 in a hurry by Nicolaus Buon in Paris and was presented at the Frankfurt Bookfair of that year, two corrected versions were published later in the same year. The German bookdealer Daniel Wechsel has bought copies of the first edition in Frankfurt, sold them all and initiated a corrected, unauthorized reprint in 1626. This pirate edition was a great succes, and Grotius urges Buon to publish a new revised edition. Unfortunately, due to the death of Buon, this didn't happen until 1631. This edition, the first published in the Netherlands and Grotius's first revision of the text, was called the second edition to distinguish it from the pirated 1626-edition. In this 1631-edition Grotius made important changes and it became the reference text of this work for contemporary scholars. Later editions of 1632, 1642 and 1646 contain some revisions and additions, but are all based on this edition. According to Van Vollenhoven, this edition is the most important of the 5 editions prepared & supervised by himself. The standard text of today, the 'editio maior' published in 1939 and reprinted augmented with additional notes in 1993 is a reprint of this 1631-edition, with the changes added separately.
