==Editions== The first edition of Alciphron's letters is that of Italian printer [[Aldus Manutius]], in his collection of the ''Greek Epistolographers'', [[Venice]], 1499, [[4to]]. This edition, however, contains only those letters which, in more modern editions, form the first two books. Seventy-two new letters were added from a Vienna and a Vatican manuscript by [[Stephan Bergler]], in his edition ([[Leipzig]], 1715, [[8vo]].) with notes and a [[Latin]] translation. These seventy-two [[epistle]]s form the third book in Bergler's edition. J. A. Wagner, in his edition ([[Leipzig]], 1798, 2 vols, [[8vo]].), with the notes of Bergler), added two new letters entire, and fragments of five others. One long letter, which as of the 19th century had not been published entire in English, exists in several [[Paris]] manuscripts.<ref name="DGRBM"/> *''[[Editio princeps]]'', [[Aldus Manutius]], (44 letters) (1499) *[[Stephan Bergler]] (1715) *English translation by Monro and Beloe (1791) *[[E.
