This chapter offers a systematic and analytical survey of the printed editions and translations of Quintilian’s Institutio and the pseudo-Quintilian Major and Minor Declamations from the editio princeps of the Institutio in 1470 until the present day. It is based on the critical work done by early modern bibliographers (especially Gesner in his edition of the Institutio, 1738, Fabricius in his Bibliotheca Latina, 1773, and the editors of the Bipont edition, 1784), on digital library catalogues and other catalogues (especially Green and Murphy’s Renaissance Rhetoric Short-Title Catalogue), and on consultation of many editions, including most of the early modern ones in digitized form. The chapter is concluded by a selective chronological list of editions from 1470 onwards, divided into lists of editions of the Institutio and the Declamationes, anthologies and compendia of the Institutio, separate books of the Institutio, and bilingual editions and translations of the Institutio and the Declamationes into English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
